This Zane fellow wasn't going to make anything easier, how great. Roger sighed after the other boy shot him a look. Zane sure came off as stubborn and determined, no point in trying to stall anymore. All the mayor does is the opening speech, luck didn't seem to be on his side today. "Christ, would it kill you to chill out a little." He continued as he walked away from the mayor's house. "Now seriously, have you seen anyone wearing a cloak around here lately?" Someone wearing a cloak in a warm island like this would surely stick out.

"Who the hell would wear a cloak in this weather?" Zane just couldn't figure out what was wrong with this guy. He crashed through houses, tried to get away from owning up to his actions and now he was talking about people wearing cloaks when it was sunny and really hot out. He decided he just needed to get this guy to the mayor and then proceed to dominate in the competitions.
Since they reached the docks so late they now had to take the last boat which was bigger than the others but they would have to ride with three other people. As he got in the boat all he thought in annoyance was great.

"Someone who doesn't want to be identified." He answered. Hell, Zane probably thought he was insane by now, but that didn't bother him. Roger wasn't planning on staying here that long, just enough to check it out and make sure nothings off. And also make sure no cloaked figures were here, but honestly he couldn't shake the paranoia gnawing on him. He cursed under his breath looking back on the island before steeping onto the boat.

After the boat started moving through the water Zane felt a bit more relaxed. The sea was always the one place he felt the best. Still he was not so pleased being in a crowded boat. He couldn't wait to hop out so he could get some more leg room. Looking at the island he knew he should just focus on winning right now. He closed his eyes and just waited for the boat to reach the other beach so he could dominate like he knew he would.

When the boat stopped Roger narrowed his eyes and frowned slightly, not exactly thrilled to talk with the mayor. He didn't know anything about the man nor how'd he react to; Hey I just wrecked part of your house, but this chick will pay for it. He let out an irritated sigh and slipped his hands into his pockets.
In his opinion he didn't have time for stuff like this. After exiting the boat, he glanced around the festival.

Scuro took Wisteria's hand and walked her over to a large group of people gathered around a large stage on the beach. The mayor walked up to a microphone on a stand and prepared to give the speech for the opening ceremony. "For decades we inhabitants of the island have gathered here on this day each year in celebration. Enjoy unique and rare foods, play games for prizes, and compete with all our hearts. This year is no different. So, I say, let the festivities begin!"
After hearing the mayor finish the speech everyone let out a loud cheer and begin running towards the stands. Scuro stayed close to Wisteria so they wouldn't get seperated in the flood of people. After they had all departed Scuro turned to her and said, "The competitions don't start for a little while. So, do you want food or to play a game first?" He was fine with doing either since it help her get accustomed to at least a few people here.

Getting out of the boat and hearing the mayor give his short and boring speech Zane knew he could almost be done with this detour. After everyone scattered he pointed Roger towards the mayor and nodded his head to let him know it was time for him to let the cat out of the bag. When that was done he could just go around the festival like normal and win competitions. Just thinking about it started to make him impatient.

Wisteria tilted her head to the side slightly as she used her hand to shove her hair from her face, "Uhm...well I'm kind of hungry.." she said and 'looked' around concentrating a moment using her other senses. Being blind had its perks, that being your other senses were stronger after a while. She glanced back at Scuro and smiled, "what would you recommend to eat hm?" she seemed to be perking up a bit more and seemed curious now as to what a person could do on the island. It seemed like she was going to get to have an adventure of some kind but first she needed to know the layout of the place so she didnt get accidentally lost or something.

With the mayor's speech finished, Roger nodded back to Zane before looking ahead making his way towards the mayor. Roger cleared his throat, then spoke "Sir?" He questioned to get his attention. "Sir, there's been an.." Paused, tried to get the words phrased right "Accident involving your house." He explained. "A small part of the roof got destroyed, along with a part of the second floor." There done. "It'll be fixed though, so don't worry about it." He thought back to the girl who said she'd cover it, hopefully she stuck to her word.

OOC: As I have never been to an island festival before I had to look up something they use as a local treat in Hawaii. It took me an hour to find this so I ask you please don't shoot it down immediately.
IC: Scuro thought about something that might be good to eat when he saw a stand that seemed like a good idea. He pulled her along walking forward towards the stand. This stand sold malasadas, a small fried ball of dough coated with sugar. He wasn't sure if this would be the most pleasant choice for her but he really didn't have any idea about her tastes at this point.
The mayor had just finished his speech and walked off stage so he could take a brief rest. He wasn't as young as he used to be so all the walking around and the heat got to him a lot easier. Then a young boy he wasn't familiar with, there seemed to be a lot of new vistors to the island, walked up to him. As he heard the story about his house he passed out from the shock. A group of islanders then ran to check and see if he was alright.

"So you don't ne-" He got cut off when he heard a thud noise, looking down Roger's mouth hanged slightly open as his eyes stared at the mayor's motionless body lay infront of him. He didn't see that coming, Roger figured he get pissed off and yell possibly kick him off the island, not pass out at the news. "What the hell.." He murmured under his breath. The teen took a few steps backwards as people started to crowd in, checking the mayor. Roger didn't have any medical knowledge at the time being so it'd be best if he just stayed out of the doctors or medics way. After ripping his eyes away from the crowd checking the mayor, he turned spotting Zane "Happy now?.. He passed out at the news, man!"

Clicking his tongue Zane replied with "What the hell did you think was gonna happen? Everything was gonna be fine and there'd be a party with candy and rainbows? You crashed into the roof of his house of course he's gonna be upset hearing about it." This guy thought that yelling at the guy that just made him fess up to what he did would help, it made Zane a bit angry. If this guy stuck around to the third day for the tournament Zane was take out all the anger and annoyance he felt today on him. Since he still had time to kill he just walk up to a stall and bought himself a shishkebob.

Wisteria stumbled a bit bumping into Zane as they were walking past, "a-ah sorry" she said a bit fidgety before straightening up squeezing Scuro's hand as she used her other to push the messy long locks of red brown out of her face as if they were a hindrance to her. Her bangs were rather long and she could use a haircut and some new clothing. She tilted her head somewhat as she went along with Scuro to the stand she hoped the person she bumped into wasnt mad at her or anything. Sniffing somewhat before swallowing softly, "this smells kind of good. what is it?" she asked curiously as the vendor handed her a little paper bowl with a ball of sugar-coated fried dough.
Taking it, she let go of Scuro's hand a moment to poke the dough with a slender index finger before pulling a piece off and bringing it to her lips waiting a moment before putting it into her mouth. Slowly running her tongue over the food chewing thoughtfully, her lips spread into a smile before giggling a little, "its sweet and a little crunchy, very good" she seemed to like sweet things as she began to finish off the little dough ball before licking her fingers making a slight mmm sound.

Scuro was glad that Wisteria enjoyed the treat. Hopefully it had lifted her spirits a bit since this morning. When she asked what it was he replied, "It's a malasada. So what seems like a good idea now?" He asked her since he didn't know whether she was still hungry or if she wanted to go to one of the game stalls. Then in the back of his mind he began to wonder what he was going to do with her once it was time for the competitions. Since she couldn't see it wouldn't be likely that she would be able to compete, especially in the scavenger hunt. He needed to think about it for a bit.
After making sure the mayor was okay four people carried him to a tent in the shade and others began discussing what to do. They couldn't cancel the festival that everyone had looked forward to all year. They decided to carry on without him and went on to the competition areas to inform the others of what had happened.

After getting bumped into by someone Zane drop his food. He heard a sorry but the time he looked to see who it was they were gone. He was going from annoyance to anger. He had to deal with all sorts of crap since this morning began. Being told off by the freak, getting pushed out of the way, having to deal with a punk that crashes through houses and now he had gotten pushed and dropped his food. He needed to vent soon before he exploded. He went towards the old shack to get his spear. Some spear fishing might calm him down but God help the fish unlucky enough to get in his way.
