Per Aquina's request, here is another installment! :) 

Day One, Part Three- Winding Down

After all the CBers had recovered from the shock of Elvina’s death, the Activities Director tried to lighten the mood.

“C’mon, guys,” she suggested. “How about we go down to the academy’s café and grab something to eat?”

“Okay, sure,” Aquina agreed.

“I was getting kind of hungry anyway,” Rufus admitted, rubbing his stomach.

“Just as long as Rufus doesn’t get out of hand,” Will T. agreed.

“Sure! Sounds cool!” Cho exclaimed.

“I’ll come,” Starseeker piped in.

“FOOD!" Joan exclaimed.

“Yumy,” Sir Galahad said.

“All right, all right, can we just go already?!” Puck demanded.

“Of course! Right this way,” A.D. said, leading the remaining CBers out of the lobby and outside into the cafe.

Once there, the CBers began to order.

“I’d like a grilled cheese,” Starseeker began. “And a block of mozzarella cheese, too.” When the server gave her a skeptical look, she explained, “It’s for my CAPTCHA, Starfire Scales. She’s a huge cheese fan.” Turning around, Starseeker allowed the next CBer to order.

“Iced tea, please,” Leafmist began. “I’d also like a caprese salad and a glass of lemonade.” Leafmist then moved with her AEs, Starseeker, and Starfire Scales to a table.

“I’d like a glass of sparkling water with lemon and a peach, please,” Aquina requested.

Will T. was next. “Can I have two Italian sodas, one mango and another strawberry?” he asked. The server nodded.

“Four cookies, please-- chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, sugar, and lemon,” Joan requested, ordering for herself, her CAPTCHA, her AE, and Legolas.

Next was Cho Chang. “I’d like just a fruit tart, please,” she said.

“Pumpkin juice, please,” said Booksy Owly.

Shadow Dragon said, “I’d like a croissant, please.”

And that was it! The order was filled within five minutes. Once all the CBers had sat down with their food, they struck up individual conversations with the CBers near them.

“Who do you think the murderer is?” Starseeker whispered to Shadow.

“I don’t know,” Shadow whispered back. “I think it might be Cho Chang, though.”

“Yeah,” Starseeker agreed. “Either her or Rufus.”

Will T. turned to Cho. “Who do you think the murderer is?” he asked over his Italian soda.

“I’m not sure,” Cho admitted. “Although, I think Aquina may be the murderer. How about you?”

“I’m not sure, either,” Will T. said. “But like you, I have suspiscions. I think the murderer might be Puck or Legolas.”

Joan turned to Leafmist and asked her opinion on who the murderer might be. Leafmist answered, “I really don’t know.”

“Any suspicions? I think it might be Will T or Shadow Dragon.”

“Yeah,” Leafmist agreed. “I think it’s Puck--” Joan looked offended but not surprised. “Or maybe one of the AEs or CAPTCHAs, like Cloudfire or Wingnut.”

Aquina turned to the Activities Director and started speaking in German. “Wo haben Director Ihren Namen Aktivitäten her*?” she asked.

The Activities Director laughed. “Where did my name come from, you ask?” Aquina nodded. “I’m not sure, although it’s not my real name. When one of my friends figured out that I was running this academy full of activities, they just started calling me that, and it caught on!”

Just then, Aquina noticed just how much the wind was picking up. “You guys,” she began, “I think it’s getting a bit windy, and I think we should go inside.”

However, no one could hear her over the wind. Suddenly, Legolas’s napkin blew away, and stood up to chase after it. As soon as he did, though, the wind picked up even more and he started to literally blow away. Grabbing onto the chair, Legolas tried to save himself from the wind, but it was no use. With one final look at his friends, Legolas’s fingers slipped from the chair and he went flying towards the mountains.

Everyone gasped. Legolas was gone, and the only thing good about it was that the wind had died down.

----------------------------------

R.I.P. Legolas. I hope you find that napkin.

*@Aquina, I hope the German in here is accurate. Once again, I used Google Translate.

**Did you get the pun at the beginning? “Wind”ing down? XD

Thanks, Leafmist! I appreciate the feedback. I like caprese salad and iced tea, too! :)
