Sakura was aimlessly skipping through Magnolia town, smiling and playing as a little girl should. She was playing hopscotch by herself, in a shady secluded area as to not bother anyone with her game. She was alone, as none of the adults wanted to baby-sit her as she went around Magnolia town. By instinct she knew she should have stayed back in the safe guild, but then again she had been through so much that it didn't really matter.
Until today.
After she had drawn a few squares on the sidewalk with some random chalk she stole innocently found on the front porch of somebody's apartment, she labeled them with numbers and skipped from square to square, sometimes challenging herself to skip a square of two. That's when a black van drove up with words on it, "FREE CANDY" it was painted in a blaring white against the black paint.

Ender arrived in Magnolia town and decided he was going to do something to tick off it local guild, FairyTail. However, Ender wasn't stupid enough for a direct conversation, or at least by himself. Now that would be suicidal to do. Ender wasn't suicidal. Ender walked around the town causally. Trying not to stand out too much. Trying to avoid a direct fight with a fairytail member. This was their hometown so help could arrive at any given time. As he wonder he found a white van.
The van was simple and nothing special about it. Ender went to the van and gotten in. He look at the ignition and notice it has it keys in it still. He took the van and driven off before any one saw him or notice the incident. As he drove around he a little girl picking up chalk and went to a shady area to play. Ender notice a fairytail mark on her. Ender went into the back of the van and saw black paint. Ender embody an idea. He put the pain on the van saying "Free Candy". Then he drove over to where the girl was playing at. He looked over at the girl with an innocent smile and yelled "Hey there little girl, I got some free candy!"

Sakura hesitated for a moment. Was it really ok to trust this guy? Was he just tricking her? She quickly dismissed the thought, thinking that surely no evil happened in Magnolia with Fairy Tail located there. "Well.... What type of candy?" she said curiously, stepping a little closer to the van. She nervously put her hand on her shoulder, where her Fairy Tail mark was. You see, at the town that she had previously lived in, it was so damn cold there that no evil people would even dream of going there, I mean the police squad was made up of five men who were volunteers that didn't even patrol at all. And the only reason they had been called out after thirty years was because of the troublesome Ai family. At least they were gone now...
When he had answered with whatever insane candy he probably didn't have, her face brightened up, "Oh, ok... may I have some?" she asked, for surely if this guy was evil he would have drove away by now. She stepped closer until she was almost touching the van, curious. This is the very definition of "curiosity killed the cat", kids. Don't try this at home.

Phoenix stepped out of the van and walked around to the back. "Of course you can have some! Then it wouldn't be free candy would it? You can choose whatever candy you want, but it's not with me. It over at my house. However, I can drive you there if you want. All you have to do is jumped into the back of my white van," said Ender to the little girl. "Are you from FairyTail? While your at my house you should grab some extra candy for them as well".
Ender walked over to the back of the van and open it doors while giving her an innocent smile. "Please young lady, step right in so we can go off and get that candy. I got lollipops, suckers, and chocolate. So don't be shy and step right in." the van was actually clean and had a couple of seats for her to sit in if she chose to jump in willingly. However, Ender was going to use force if she didn't.

Sakura shrugged excitedly to herself and walked around to meet him at the back of the van. "Yeah, I'm from Fairy Tail" she beamed, showing off the mark on her shoulder. When he suggested that she might bring some candy home for her friends at Fairy Tail, she grew even more excited. 'Horray! Now they'll definitely like me! I can prove to them I can get my own wants.'[/i] Little did she know that her dreams were about to be crushed.
There was no actual need for Ender to use any force whatsoever. Sakura was so gullible that she would believe anything and jumped right into the van all smiling like she was having the best time of her life, "How far?" she asked excitedly, she couldn't wait another second.

The idea of using force quickly became mute. She happily and willing gotten into the van. Ender, given her an innocent smile and closed the back doors of the van. He'd quickly gotten into the front seat and into the driver seat. The little girl was enthusiastic and eager for the ride. To get the candy Ender had promise, but little did she knew. There was no candy to be given. Ender did have some candy, but he has a huge sweet tooth. Not only that, he was never a sharing type.
Phoenix walked over the van and gotten into the front seat and turn the van on. "Oh it shouldn't be too long. We just have to arrive to the port and take a boat ride. Trust me when I say your gonna need a boat for how much candy your about to get," inform Ender to the little girl. "Oh and by the way, my name is Phoenix. However, my friends call me Ender." With that, he drove the van to the nearby port. -exit-

Sakura laughed at the analogy. Although, as it turns out she was in a boat-load of trouble instead of candy. Which, actually, could be used in the same context but... "Huh. Nice name. My name is Sakura, nice to meet you." She sat back into the seat, a kind of wave of uneasiness washing over her. The mages at Fairy Tail had told her not to go to the Technicolor Village because there was an evil guild there. But then again, they told her that alcohol taste good and was good for you....
She kicked her legs up and down like little girls do when their feet don't quite touch the ground when they're sitting in a chair. That's when she noticed she only had one shoe. "Oh..." she whispered to herself. Shrugging, she blew it off, deciding that the shoe was so ratty anyways that she didn't need it. After a while of doing absolutely nothing on the boat, she just fell asleep in the van, her mouth slightly, but cutely ajar.

Calyco walked around the streets for hours searching for clues only to find more questions. The people she asked were pointing in this direction and then the other, it was all very confusing. She seemed to arrive at a place where the road had large tire imprints on the road, was this coincidence? At this time she wasn't gonna dismiss any suspicious thing she could find and this required more digging into. She looked around to see if there are any people or shops that might give her some clues, she spotted a hotel and a guy standing there, no doubt he was the one opening the doors.
She walked to him looking at his shiny red uniform, he liked it to look new and good hence "just washed" feeling she got from the impression. "Excuse me sir. Have you seen a child around 12 years old?". The person thought for a while and then as if he remembered "Well there are many little girls passing by, do you have her picture or something so I could remember?" he replied though did she actually have her picture? Come to think of it her partner got it she thought, well she will have to wait for him to get anything done around here.

Not really listening too much to the conversation as he walked up, Manuel played with the picture of Sakura in his hands, passing it between his fingers and back and forth from hand to hand. "Well there are many little girls passing by, do you have her picture or something so I could remember?" At the mention of the picture, Manuel snapped back to attention and held it up to the door man. "This is her, name's Sakura." Manuel held the picture up close so the man could get a real good look at it before he dismissed it away. Luckily his memory was pretty good this time. "I do seem to remember her. She was talking to someone at a van last I saw. When I looked back the van was driving away." Perfect, they had another witness...or possible suspect. Either way they were going to get to the bottom of this fast, before anything bad could happen to Sakura. He just hoped they were treating her well, he didn't like seeing her cry.

"Only time and life will tell. But it's a long way home when you're in hell. Where constant demons fracture souls. Once a nightmare, now just lifeless ghosts~." These lyrics seemed to slowly wander up and down the streets like the spirits of old. Slowly a figure appeared over the hill, a tower of a man who wore Victorian clothing and a top hat. His well known demonic grin on his face as his figure swayed left to right as his legs supported the obese like stomach that he carried. The lyrics were quick to disappear and were replaced by a haunting humming sound which seemed to follow after everyone. "Such a very nice day for a stroll~." The figure muttered, despite his words today was obviously a bad day. Slowly he made he way to both Calyco and Manuel before he stopped. His head lowered as his spectacles seemed to bore into the two Fairy Tail Guilds Members.
"Well, well if it isn't Calyco and Manuel. How is your investigation coming along~?" The figure asked, a sing song tone in his voice as he seemed rather happy despite recent developments. "I do hope that you will find our beloved Sakura soon~." He asked, the sing song tone continued to ring out as the large grin remained on his face even as he spoke. "I fear for her safety so please tell me you have a lead~." He said, not seemingly caring about the person they were questioning at this point as he seemed more concerned with their progress. His right hand slowly moved, fumbling with one of the buttons of his suit as he seemed to subconsciously mess with his clothing as he awaited their report.

Her partner walked in just at the right moment. He gladly showed the person Sakura's picture and introduced her name to the man, perhaps he knew her by the name who knows. There was a short pause and then the man spoke "I do seem to remember her. She was talking to someone at a van last I saw. When I looked back the van was driving away.". It was very good news, the tracks she saw on the road probably belonged to the van which will make it easier to track. "Thank you sir." she thanked the man then turned to her partner "Well, it seems we are in luck. Look at these tracks on the road." she showed him the tracks "Maybe if we go after them we will get somewhere."
She heard steps behind her, there is no doubt about it, it must be him. "Well, well if it isn't Calyco and Manuel. How is your investigation coming along~?" said the person behind them. When she turned around it only confirmed her guess, it was him. "We actually have a lead." she pointed at the tracks on the road again "and this gentleman has seen her getting into the van with someone. No doubt she has been kidnapped." she looked at Manuel and than back to the newcomer "How about you come with us?" they could use another hand in this matter.

Perfect, they were well on their way to finding out where she was taken. So it was a man in a van that ended up taking her? Manuel scratched his head for a bit in disappointment. "Damn kid, did no when ever remind her not to talk to strangers? Or was I the only one who remembered that life lesson." Looking at the tracks, Manuel put his hand on them and looked both ways, figuring out which direction they came and which they were headed. It was then that the guild leader came up to them, a bit too happy go lucky considering the situation they were in and the danger in this situation. Kidnapping cases only last so long before the kid either gets found, or winds up dead in a ditch.
"It will be a bit too easy with the Guild Master coming along...but I'm sure I can find someway to make it more interesting." Slapping the leader on the back, Manuel pulled out a cigarette and lit it up. "Care for one sir?" With a puff of smoke away from the others, Manuel looked back at the tracks, noticing a familiar shoe laying in the road. Did she not know how to tie her shoes either? Picking it up for her, and quickly pocketing it before anyone noticed, Manuel started walking along the tracks. "Lets get this done people. It's time to rescue Sakura."
{EXIT} ((Note: Follow the tracks all the way to Technicolor? Lets get this mission moving.))

"Oh my! A kidnapping~." Was all Shinjitu said as his eyes looked from Calyco to Manuel from beneath the glasses which hid them from public eyes. "Such a troublesome girl that Sakura~. She should know better than to hop into a random person's van~." Shinjitu said, his sing song voice continued to ring out as he turned on the spot and looked down at the tire tracks. Before long he was offered the idea of coming along, along with the action of being slapped on the back by Manuel and offered a cigarette. His eyes didn't leave Manuel for a second but neither did he mention anything before that familiar grin began to move in speech. "I will gladly come along~. All that I had back at the guild was some paper work to do but that can wait~." Shinjitu said, tipping his top at forward slightly, he began to follow the track while humming softly. "Besides, some one is going to need to give Sakura a scolding for getting kidnapped and going out into the world all by her lonesome~." He said, humming mid sentence as he followed after Manuel.
[Exit]

Calyco agreed with both mages, that girl was some trouble indeed but more importantly they need to get her back for some scolding. It looked like they gained another partner, he was strong however they still needed to do their part, you can't always count on someone else and so they began to follow these tracks. "Just you wait you kidnapper." she shouted and pointed at the track directions, Rikesh followed her as always carrying her things for her. Soon they would get to the port where the tracks led them, by asking the port master they would gain information about where else to look and the means to.
{Exit to port}
