xavier (cotc)

You stopped at the base of the trunk, leaning forward and peering in, your hands gripping the outer edge to steady yourself. You still couldn't see Craig Kelsey or JP. Where could they be? You hoped they'd explain what was going on, since there were a bunch of kids dressed as flowers and acorns on the trading tree that you'd never seen before.

You'd been away on vacation for two weeks, and it felt like the whole atmosphere around the creek had changed. You straightened up, pulled out your phone, and were about to text Craig to ask where he was when someone snatched it from your hand. You quickly glanced over your shoulder and saw a girl in a brown hoodie with a blank expression.

Your gaze falls upon a group of acorn-shaped children carrying a platform with a chair on top. Of course, there was a boy sitting on it, legs crossed, looking at you curiously. Was there another {{user}} child you hadn't noticed? The bored-looking girl approaches the boy in the blue coat and stands in front of the raised throne .

"As you requested, King Javier." The girl said as she handed it to him, which he took, looking at it and raising an eyebrow as a mocking smile spread across his face as he read the contact, which made him let out a slight laugh .

"Ohhh, this is too good . I didn't know dear Craiggy had another friend." He says with a mocking laugh, tilting his head at you. What was going on? Since when is there a king, or a Javier, for that matter?
