Revelations and Spying? Part 1

Cover Art- Chapter 14 - https://i.imgur.com/uj8rfCC.png

Justin was waiting with the students until Luke and San returned with Tommy. Meanwhile, Kenji was handing out the prizes, even though the Treasure Hunt hadn't been completed by the two other groups, but Mary's group were closer to where the Treasure was, but everybody was going to receive some kind of prize, so Justin asked Kenji to hand out the prizes. 

Kenji then takes the prizes from the boxes and hands them out to the students already sitting in their seats on the bus. He begins to hear some side conversations and hears Mark talking to Ren, Mark seems quite annoyed and speaks to Ren who is sitting next to him: 

-Damn it, I shouldn't have come to this camp! 

Ren then rebuts him: 

-At least your group and Mary won the Treasure Hunt, my group almost got screwed today. 

Mark then thinks about what he said and says: 

-True buddy, I'm sorry about that, but what really pissed me off was that I couldn't get to you, since we were a bit further away from you! 

-Oh, don't worry about Mark, we couldn't do much without the right equipment, but I wasn't going to let that demon get by so easily! 

-Oh, yes I know, you're very well trained Ren, I've really enjoyed these last few days training together! You're like a brother to me, I consider you more than my half-brother! 

-Thank you Mark, you're the brother I never had! I've also really enjoyed our training sessions, I hope we're ready for the Test! 

-We'll do our best Ren and I know our Support Marry will too. 

Theo is in the armchair behind theirs, and there's no way not to overhear the conversation, so Theo makes a surprised face and finally finds out who their Support is going to be, he keeps his ear to the ground to see if he can hear anything else. 

(Gossip team/Spy - Kenji, Theo and Andrew really do find out!) 

As Kenji continues to hand out the prizes, he notices Theo slumped over and says: 

-Hey bro, what are you doing?! 

Theo signals with his finger for him to be quiet, as he's trying to listen in on someone else's conversation, and he then makes a ~Then I'll tell you~ sign. 

Kenji then nods and continues handing out the last prizes. 

Mark then begins to keep his voice down: 

-Let's speak a little quieter, the bus is small and everyone can hear. 

-Uhum...I hope Tommy comes back soon... 

-Don't even get me started on Tommy, I feel like choking him sometimes, he gets me into so much trouble! 

Justin is then with San and they keep looking for Tommy, and finally they find him: 

-Here's Tommy, Mr. Becker! 

-Oh, at last he's not even answering his cell phone! 

-Tommy, come on, man, we've got to go! 

Tommy then says: 

-Oh, I got lost, I had a stomach ache, I had to go to the bathroom, and I couldn't find it, so I had to go into the woods! 

-Hum, you can't just go off like that without telling anyone, if something happened how would we get to you? 

-Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to! 

San then whispers to Tommy 

-Yeah Tommy, get your ear ready because they're going to say a lot to us! 

-To us? What did we do this time? 

Then, as they make their way back to the bus, they keep whispering to each other: 

-Tommy, did you take the backpack? And changed the signposts? 

-Me? No! Were the signs changed? That explains why I got lost! 

-Jeez Tommy, what a relief I thought you'd done something, we'd be screwed this time! 

-No, I did, I swear! But I know no one will believe me... so what the hell! 

-Yes, but we'll have to hear complaints from Mary, Luan and the others! 

Once the camp is over, everyone has returned safely to their homes. It's Monday and there are only four days left until the Awakening Test. It's 6:30 a.m. Luan and Derick are on their way to school. Luan remembers taking Mr. Edvan's bicycle from the grocery store on the way out of school, and Derick comments on the summary of the book that Grandpa Han asked them to do: -I suppose you've read the book Luan, but that ending "they lived happily ever after." -Well, in my opinion, "happily ever after" already sums up the Marquis. 

-Well, as far as I'm concerned, "happily ever after" already sums up that the Marquis got married, had a child, a dog, a cat and so on. 

--So, right Luan, what do you think "happily ever after" will be like? 

-Hm, I don't know yet, what about yours, Derick? 

- Mine?...I have no idea. 

-Well, I'm pretty sure you're going to be a doctor! 

-Hm, could be... 

They arrive at the school, and need to follow the plan to get Tommy's cell phone.
