          This place was huge…! Hinata was seemingly wandering what felt like forever, and he didn’t even know where he was heading, but it was worth it. There were many things for him to look at, and really, if he took one wrong turn he’d get lost. Actually…

          He came to an abrupt stop. Somehow, he did get lost on his own, and he was looking for a specific place. He was curiously looking for any signs of a bookstore. There was the library that he saw, but he didn’t see any book in there that he wanted. And it was a pretty small library. If he made any loud noises in there, he’d get immediately kicked out, so he left soon after he scanned quickly as he could.

          But this place was kinda cold, kinda creepy. He was getting the heebie jeebies. He kept his coat wrapped around him and checked his phone-- damn. It was out of service.

           ❛ Ahh! ❜  he jumped when he ran into a very tall figure that wasn’t there before, or at least he thought wasn’t there. His mind must have been trying to wander somewhere else. This guy that was in front of him must’ve been a foot taller than him, it reminded him of someone he knew in high school—

Nature has gone wild, everything is overgrown and it doesn't seem to be stopping. Soon all of town will be part of those vicious vines. Hero, we need you to cut through those vines and clear the village enough to prevent it from being swallowed. Something must be giving these plants more power, see if you can find its source if you can. I wish I could pay you far more than I can, but what I can pay isn't less than what's fair either. You will be rewarded 400 points + ONE ( 1 ) sack of seeds.

“You’ve seriously gotta be kidding me....”

Kaoru stared blankly at the the wall of vines before them, running his hand through his blonde hair with a soft groan. And here he was thinking that things like this only existed in fairy tales.

Hesitantly breaking away from the impromptu group Kaoru had found himself with (he’d tried to follow Kaiden, but lost sight of the other during the chaos that had immediately followed the announcement), he knelt down to tug at a vine with a grunt, yanking it one way or another. After a few ineffectual attempts, Kaoru found himself crashing onto his behind with an undignified squawk as he lost his grip on the stubborn vine.

(And he was pretty sure its swaying was meant as a taunt. Not that vines should be able to do that, but Kaoru had long been forced to accept that nothing was as  appeared)

Making an irritated noise, the idol pulled himself to his feet, resisting the urge to rub his backside, instead settling for mussing up his hair even more, glancing at the sheet of paper he’d been presented with.

“Well, they weren’t joking. These things aren’t normal vines. Any ideas on what to do?” Turning slightly, Kaoru let his eyes drift to the sword hanging from one of his companions’ waists, but made no mention of it out loud. It was possible it was just a prop, right?

“I mean, if we had some fuel or something we could set it on--. Actually, forget that. Bad idea.” With a shudder, Kaoru sighed loudly. What on earth had made him think that was a good idea?!
