Antonie had a bit more pep in his step than when he entered the ferry. Why? Well, he was given a small basic envelope from the Captain with some let’s just say exciting details. Really, it just had a few lines of text discussing a lone cedar tree nearby the harbor. He was itching to get to the tree truth be told. The first people to find the exams were probably seen more favorably by the proctors, right? He was not but ten feet off the boat when a woman’s cries could be heard. She was standing there in the middle of the crowd with a small piece of paper in her hand. He could not make out her words at first but as he got closer it was quite clear. She was sobbing and the paper that was in her hands was in fact an image of a young child. He slowly began to weave through the crowd until he was in front of her.

“Excuse me miss, are you okay? Did I overhear your daughter is missing?”
[break][break]
Her tearful eyes turned to Antonie and she began to ramble on. “Oh please, please help me. My daughter has been missing for the past few days. People around say they’ve seen her but I can’t find her still. Please, you have to help.” Antonie sympathized with her, a missing kid was not something he was able to just brush off. “Oh no, that’s horrible. I’d be happy to help you find her. Can you give me any other details?” The people kept walking past. Some just brushed past them but some seemed to be listening to her story.

Upon leaping from the gangway of the docked sea vessel, the boy was to join the plentiful crowd of people that congested the docks. Yet, before the boy even realized, that man with the stripe-hat and his uncle were out of sight. Eh- Perhaps he had jumped the gun just a bit, but he was not too concerned.
It was sure that Eru could find his uncle again later, and so too that the stripe-hat man which he had befriended on the voyage here. It was to be quite easy to find the hippie again though- since he had rushed to aid a random weeping woman within the midst of the crammed dock.
Eru: "Oh~ Antonie, you devious fo-"
In jest, Eru was to to call the man a fox with any random woman, but when he realized the woman that was crying had just lost her daughter, he was to shut up. It was best to keep quiet for now. Eru were to stand behind the hippie- merely hearing out what the woman had to say.
Eru felt bad for the woman- but what could he do? It is likely that she was long gone by now. However, the boy did wish to assist with the search. If the boy desired to be a great 'Hunter', then why not begin with a quest like this?
Eru: "I can assist you too, ma'am!"
It was true that Eru was but a child- but the boy was no light weight. If his friend truly did wish to find and locate the lost girl, then Eru ought to join with!

As the woman was explaining the situation, Antonie heard his name being used. He was trying to pay attention to her but the ruffle of bodies behind him caused him to briefly glance over his shoulder. It looked like Eru had caught up with him, not that he was trying to outrun or elude him. Not wanting to interrupt the woman, Tonie let her finish her story before he acknowledged Eru. “I think we are both more than willing to help you ma’am. Do you have any pictures we can use to help locate her?” The woman’s face might have still been full of anguish and grief but with their agreeance to help there was a wave of relief washing over her. ” Oh thank you, thank you. Yes. I have some copies here with me. Thank you again. Her name is Milly. I know the man at the fish stall said he saw her the day she went missing. So did the ticket counter lady for the ferry. Please, I’ll do anything to get my baby back.”
[break][break]
Her grief was really pulling on his heartstrings. Tonie touched the woman’s shoulder and gave her a light squeeze. “Don’t give up on her just yet. Surely, somebody knows where she went.” Now that was all settled, Tonie turned his attention towards Eru. “Are you sure you’ve got time to help out? We can always divide and conquer if that is okay with you?” He handed the boy the extra picture he was just given and awaited his response.

In a resolute manner, the boy was to nod with each clue the distraught mother was to give, his eyes closed as he touched his chin. Upon finishing what she had to say to the two, she were to hand the adult, hippie-man, a pair of photos to help their search. Eru were to try his best to not forget the clues- but unfortunately, one were to have now poofed.
Eh- It was no worries though; Eru had the other clue, perhaps the best option for the two were to split up! Eru was ready to propose that they can break up and meet back up here, but funny enough, his friend had the exact same plan! It made sense- great minds do think alike after all!
Eru: "I could not agree more! I am more used to divide and conquer anywho~!"
Upon his face, he was to shine an earnest smile, one which signaled his great resolve to help. Eru were to take the copy of the photo, and do his very best to solve the case.
Eru: "I say we meet back up here by nightbreak?- If only we have any trouble with the search, but I sure hope not."
In a burst of energy, the boy was sprint onward toward the fish stall- with that being the only clue he could remember. However, certainly, a lead was to be found there. It was a brand new place, abound with fresh faces, but so too novel troubles.
Eru could smell the salty sea scent from the local fish stall, but a hint of a new adventure as well. It can be said Eru was a bit callous- but no, he did truly care for the case, but his lack of worry or concern likely derived from his background as part of a mafia family.

” Nightfall? Are you okay with being alone that long? Weren’t you with your Uncle? He might get worried if you’re missing that long of a period.” He waited to see what the boy’s response was before the two eventually did split up. Antonie was wary of letting the boy go alone. They were already tasked with finding one missing kid. As Eru sprinted off towards the fisherman’s stalls, Antonie decided he would try his luck with the ticket counter worker.
[break][break]
The crowd exiting the boat had completely subsided and now they were in the process of boarding the vessel for its return trip. While a few people were still purchasing their tickets it was honestly not busy at all. Antonie slid in right as the last purchaser walked away. ” Excuse me, how are you? I am trying to help a distressed mother find her daughter. She said you might have some information about where she was, I’d really like to help her reunite with each other.” The woman seemed a bit thrown off before she placed a close sign on her window and motioned for him to follow her to the edge of the ticket booth where the door was. ” Yes, I saw her but I wouldn’t stick my nose into it if I was you. There are some dangerous dealings around these docks.” She motioned him closer. “Look, don’t let them know who you’ve talked to but I would go poking around that warehouse near the edge of the docks if I was you. Lots of people coming in and out of a building are thought to be shut down due to safety reasons. I know that a few of the dock hands do some work under the table for some shady people around here. I would watch who you approach in the future. You might bite off more than you can chew.”
[break][break]
A puzzled look crossed his face. This seemed like a bigger deal than a missing child. What really was going on here? Antonie headed back to the area where he and Eru decided to meet. Hopefully, the young boy found out some stuff.
