Break?

Yes, Emily?

Guess what I found?

What did you find?

A treasure map! A treasure map!

Treasure? My, my- what does it say.

I don't know! I can't read it.

Well, I can't read it either. How are we going to find the treasure, then?

Maybe we can ask someone to help?

... eeh? Hanged!?

[Oh god, Negi hopes this is just a game.]

Miss Lizzie, how are you with flying...?

[Lizzie turns a little pale at the description.]

Maybe we could try to reason with the pirate king...

[She blinks.]

Flying? On what? And how? Is it hard?

[Offline]

[exarmatio]

M-maybe...

[He motions to the staff, strapped to his back.]

On this. Don't worry, it's very safe. Even if you lose your grip, you can't fall from it.

[She glances at the staff, unsure but willing to try.]

If we fly we'll get to the tree faster, right? So let's do it. We should try to talk with the pirate king before he hangs the little doll, whoever she is...

[exarmatio]

Right. That's my thought exactly.

[Come on, Lizzie! Let's go outide!]

Hop on behind me, and hold on tight.

[Everything about this screams INDECENCY but her mother wasn't watching, so what she didn't know wouldn't hurt her, right?

So Lizzie hops onto the staff, trying to find her balance for a moment before clinging to him and holding on for dear life.]

I'm ready, Negi.

[exarmatio]

Okay.

[And once she's on and seated comfortably, he takes off. It's not far to where he thinks they should be - the southernmost point in the city could only be one place. Once he finds a safe place, he lands, making sure Lizzie dismounts first and keeping a close eye for any creatures nearby.]

[There are no creatures. No pirates.

Just Emily- tied to the trunk of the tree like a very little maiden tied to railroad tracks, with a note under one of her blue little arms;]

Emily the doll has swooned away cold, I'm afraid, but you're not far now;

For your final clue I ask of you,
Where do you go when you're feeling blue?
If you've got a cough and a sniffle or two,
Who can you count on my dears, oh who?

Now, don't forget to bring Emily along with you! If you leaver her behind a pirate might get her.

[Lizzie is more than relieved to see that there's no real body being hung. Though she does feel bad for the doll. She leans over to untie her.]

Isn't this Mister Break's doll?

[Offline]

[exarmatio]

[Oh, Negi is too, don't worry. He pauses, more inspecting the note as Lizzie unties Emily.]

Yes, I remember seeing it with him before.

... this riddle. I think the answer is Unohana-san's clinic.

[Offline]

[daintydressing.livejournal.com]

[Lizzie tucks Emily into her little satchel before nodding.]

It says "final clue", so I guess Miss Unohana's clinic will be where the treasure is! Let's go!

[Offline]

[exarmatio]

We're really close! This is so exciting!

[Here, Lizzie, hop back on his staff. Unohana's isn't far, but it would be a long walk.]

[Offline]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

[They'll be the first to arrive.]

[Offline]

[daintydressing.livejournal.com]

Isn't it? I can't wait to find out what the treasure is~!

[With more confidence this time, she hops onto the staff. She's even able to look down this time.]

Do you fly often, Negi? The view is lovely from up here.
