Twisted Wonderland Book 2: The Usurper from the Wilds

Meanwhile, at a different part of the festival, Briar, and the others, including Ace and Deuce, are looking around as they wait for the plan to be set in motion.

"Myaaah! Get a load of all the food stands! Grim says, in excitement.

Then begins to explore around the stalls, "They got churros and funnel cakes and... Ooh, is that jerky?"

"There's also a lot of cool stuff. You can get your own Spelldrive disc," Jasper says.

"And you can even get some t-shirts, and clothes," Briar says.

"And accessories," Sereia says.

"And some books," Tanzanite says.

"Can we buy some stuff?" Grim asks.

Trinket tinks as she looks at the shiny objects.

"Yeah. Can we get some food to eat," Grim asks.

Briar giggles, "We'll get something to eat later, because we have a case to solve, but we could buy some souvenirs. I think we have enough to buy a few things."

"Alright," Jasper says with a smile.

"Yay," Sereia happily cheers.

The group soon look around the stall to see if there's anything they like to get.

"Look there's a seashell necklace," Sereia says.

"And a few good books," Tanzanite says.

"I like to have my own disc to play Spelldrive," Jasper says.

"I want something to eat. I'm hungry," Grim says.

"You're always hungry," Briar says.

Meanwhile, Ace and Deuce are feeling disappointed.

"Man, I can't believe I didn't make the team after all that," Ace says.

"Me neither..." Deuce replies.

Briar turns to see Ace and Deuce are still disappointed for not being able to make the team.

Briar walks over and says, "Don't worry guys, there's always next year. For now, we can cheer on the ones who did!"

Ace sighs, "I suppose you're right."

"So did you get anything?" Ace asks.

"I got myself a pouch," Briar says, showing the pouch.

The pouch is black, but also has all the drom's crest on it. It also has the symbol of the college in the center. It also has two thick strings.

"Hmm, nice bag," Deuce says.

Just then, Sereia and the others return with their purchases.

"Look Briar, I got a seashell hair clip," Sereia says.

"I got a book about magic and casting different spells," Tanzanite says.

"I got my own disc so we can play Spelldrive together. I want to start training after the tournament ends," Jasper says.

"Well, the stall didn't have food, I want something to eat," Grim complains.

Then Trinket tinks in reply, and is holding a small leaf and flower decorated cloth.

"I see you guys got something from the festival," Ace says.

Then Deuce says, "Well, we have an important job to do anyway. We should focus on that."

"Yeah, good point. Focused. That's us," Ace says.

Then asks, "Do you have your camera, Briar?"

"Right here," Briar says, holding her ghost camera.
