Jason stepped off the boat and made his way to where Kristine had found a scrap of fabric. He began to examine it and though he thought this probably wasn't from the missing sailor, he kept his thoughts to himself.

"Lucy, (@Detective_Discovery ) you like to heights and climbing. right? Why don't you climb up one of those trees and see if you can spot a campsite or anything from up there?"

Lucy nodded at West's question as she stepped out of the boat. She walked around the tallest trees and inspected the low branches. Once satisfied one would hold, she carefully stepped onto it and grabbed for the next branch to test it. Over and over she repeated this until near the top.

She scanned the horizon for a few minutes then paused when something caught her eye. It looked like smoke from a campfire and it didn't seem like it was too far away. It seemed promising she thought, as she slowly climbed down the tree to rejoin the others.

"There is smoke due North not too far from here."

Julie didn't think of herself as being anymore uncoordinated or clumsy than the average person...but she still couldn't imagine climbing a tree without giving it a second thought like that, like Detective Discovery had just done. It seemed like a very bold move for the very shy Junior Detective, and it made Julie a little nervous watching the young girl climb to the top.

Julie was very glad when Lucy had climbed down the tree again, and was safely back on the ground...she was glad that Lucy was starting to open up and feel like part of the team...and that Lucy had found such a important clue.

Clearly this young girl would be a great agent someday....

"That's great, @Detective_Discovery. Good job," said Julie. :)

"So where do we go from here?" Asked Kristine. "Where there is smoke there might be a fire."

Watching Discovery,West, and Julie, Kristine was rather inspired, and hoped to be as good as them some day. Though there was sill so much for her to learn, at this time.

"So where do we go from here?" Asked Kristine. "Where there is smoke there might be a fire."
"I think that's probably the best idea. We'll probably find a campsite somewhere near the fire." Jason replied as he put his backpack on and picked up the case he had brought from his office.

"Would you like to lead the way @Lucy?" Jason asked as he turned to the young junior detective.

Lucy’s face turned red with embarrassment as she shook her head shyly.

"I'd feel better if you took the lead."

The young girl still wasn't sure if she was ready to be that bold. Lucy still had a lot to learn and figured she might pick up a few things from him if he led the team.

"I'd feel better if you took the lead."
"Okay." Jason replied as he pulled out a GPS system and powered it on.

"I need someone to just hang onto this while we're making our way out there. Can any of you do that for me? I'm going to need a few minutes before we head out on the trek."

Jason set the GPS device down on top of his bag and began to open the case that he had brought with them. He would rather be safe than sorry when it came to these kinds of personal missions. He quickly opened the case and began to quickly put together his GAP-10. Once the gun was assembled, he put a quick attach suppressor and quick acquisition scope onto the rifle. He then threw the sling over his body and retrieved a few magazines that were already loaded from the case before closing it.

After seating a magazine into the rifle and putting the rest of the magazines on top of his bag, he put the case back into the RHIB and retrieved his plate carrier with MOLLE attached pouches on it. He quickly leaned the rifle against the boat and put his plate carrier on.

The heavily tattooed blond put the spare magazines into the pouches before putting the rifle sling back on followed by his backpack.

"Everyone ready to go?" Jason asked.

Julie looked at @Lucy, and she could see the young girl's shyness had seemed to return. Not wanting her to lose her confidence again, Julie spoke up, and said,"Yes, Jason, we're right behind you. Come on, @Detective_Discovery, you can walk with me. You, too, @Invader. We're all on this adventure together, after all. ;) And remember, just try to stay alert and observant. Anything that we see or hear could be important, no matter how insignificant it seems..." :)

Invader picked up the GPS, unit and carried it with great care. She let the others lead the way, while keeping them in sight. This was turning out to be quite the adventure, and she kept her ears open as well for any odd sounds. Watching the three of them inspired her, and she admired them greatly.

    ((OOC: So, I am still here (at least, while ACP is still a thing, then I have to tether my phone to my laptop, send it's internet to Ethernet to my router and setup my other laptop to access that... I managed it once totally by accident)... updating stuff I'm working on is not a fun process (if anyone checks my stories folder on my Google Drive) anymore... the laptop at my desk is old (Core 2 Duo, 2Ghz, 4 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate)... Chrome won't update, Drive won't work... I'm stuck using FreeFileSync to keep stuff up to datep things synced. I have plans of getting a job and having money to have something better (a doorstop is better)

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos). Posts like Hierarchy were started long ago, and meant as a guideline and not because I'm the voice of Sauron.

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
