-Fashion Valley Mall- 13:30 o'clock
Sandy: -sighs relaxed- It's nice to have a free day once in a while
Kenji: Your job as a Druid was done pretty fast. I mean, your one of the best of your kind
Sandy: Kenji, Honey, believe me, there are many elves that can trump me in this.
-they go past a jewelry shop, where a Ghost named Howard Smith stands. He had the clothings of a Hydaelyan Miner, and blue eyes-
Howard: Oh my Goodness, look at this Watch!
-both Kenji and Sandy look suprised to the the overjoyful ghost. He is overly excited over a diamond watch-
Howard: The position of the crystals, the polishing, the used metal, just godly! I will take this one! -gives the Jewelry keep money and takes the watch, but then noticing Kenji and Sandy- Oh? A Oni and a Elf as a couple? Well know i have seen every pairing.
Kenji and Sandy look confused at each other, and then to Howard
Sandy: Well....seems like someone is excited about jewelry i guess
Kenji: I haven't seen a ghost having such a obsession with crystals. I think he is a miner or something. You see his gauntlets? Those are drill-gauntlets. Such tools are not often seen in public. This guy must be special in his job.
Sandy: I thought such things are sci-fi trash o_o
Kenji: Well, many people make thinking mistakes. Hmm....
-Birdland, San Diego- 14:40 o'clock
-Garren, Lea and Manuel sit at the table and listen what Kenji told them-
Garren: A diamond-obssesed ghost?
Manuel: With drill gauntlets?
Lea: And a mining outfit? In a Mall
Kenji: Eeyup, pretty odd to see i think.
Martin: Oi, i know who that is!
Garren: You do? Who is that Ghost?
Martin: This Ghost is Howard Smith. A Alchemist from Trowbridge, who has a shop in downtown for alchemic stuff like books, element-packages and elemental stones.
Kenji: -looks at his Shinken- Elemental stones, Ey?
Garren: Oh, right, your last wind elemental stone broke apart during our first Quest
Lea: And i was thinking of some elemental power for my arrows. Some shards from the Thunder-element would be really effective against my enemies.
Garren: Ok then, i say let's go to this Shop for Alchemy.
Martin: It is near this RD Alchemy Natural Producers, so i kinda know the way
-Howard's Shop for Alchemic Wonders- -14:56 o'clock-
Garren: Wow. Directly at the other side of the Street. What a coincedence
Martin: Well then, let's walk in!
-in the shop, many stuff lies around. Books, bottles, stones and other stuff. At the bar stands a female ghost, two years older then Howard. This is his sister Lisa-
Lisa: Welcome at the Shop for Alchemic Wonders, how can i help you? -she recognizes the manticore of the group- Martin? You here?
Martin: Hi Lisa, my pals and i wanted to see your shop, or rather, the one of your brother.
Kenji: -goes to the bar- And i would buy a wind elemental stone, if it is not too much.
Lisa: Well, it's your lucky day, we got new ones recently, fully charged. -pulls out a little glass cabinet with three pink crystals- If you want all of them, that would be 72$.
Kenji: Well that is....alot. But i got enough currently -gives her the exact number, so he can get the crystals- Booyah!
Lea: And i would want to buy some elemental shards for my arrows, eight from thunder, ice and fire.
Lisa: This would make 5.52$ miss.
Lea: -gives her exactly that-
Garren: -looks at some ingredients- wew, im remembered of a great show now.
Martin: Hey Lisa, where is your weird bro?
Lisa: He currently charges up his drills with earth elemental stones, in the storeroom. He says it gives him a nice feeling in the magical circuits.
-suddenly, the door to the storeroom goes KA-BOOM, dust flies around and everyone coughs-
Garren: -coughs like crazy-
Howard: -comes out, with his drills still spinning- Oh, um, sorry about this dear costumers, i think i went a bit overboard with the charge up^^'
Garren: -looks to Lisa- Is this a addiction?
Lisa: Actually no....
Howard: The feeling when the charge goes down your spine just refreshing, wew! Who are you people by the way?
Garren: The Green Hunters. The new Guild of the city, maybe heard of us?
Howard: Well....sorry darling, but i have no idea how Guilds work, and the only Guild i know of is the Avengers
Garren: You can't be serious -_-
-Howards cellphone rings-
Howard: Hello, Howard Smith here!
Shopkeeper: Howard, those stones you gave me, there getting stolen! a Zombie with a baseball bat broke in
Howard: oh dear....did you call the police?
Shopkeeper: My other telephone has been destroyed, and this one may ge- -signal breaks off-
Howard: Levi? Levi!? Oh no....
Martin: Da heck happened?
Howard: Someone broke into the jewelry of someone i know, and the police isn't contacted
Garren: Well, crap. Well, seems like we must go there then
Howard: I will tag along.
Lisa: Howy!
Howard: Don't worry sis, it is difficult to injure ghosts you know.
Garren: Ok then, Green Hunters, move out!
-San Diego Jewelry Buyers- 15:10 o'clock
-The Zombie, who's name is Dagger Blings, puts some elemental stones and a lot of the jewelry into his backpack-
Dagger: I don't know who you called, but when they come, i already got enough jewels.
Levi: Please, this shop is-
Dagger: -hits him- shut it, oldtimer. I don't care what you feel about this shop, the only thing i want is the jewels...
Garren: Ahem
Dagger: Hm? -his eyes widened while he saw the Green Hunters-
Garren: Shall we break your skull, Undead?
Dagger: One step further, and this man gets hit brains smashed! -holds his baseball bat in front of Levi's head-
Lea: -her fist shivers-
Manuel: This from a teenager....
Howard:...you....stupid ruffian. You guys call the police, i will handle this guy. -he changes his density-
Garren: Oi! Where are you going?
Levi: -widens his eyes-
Manuel: He leaves this man in danger?
Dagger: Haha! Seems like i win
Lea: -phones the police-
-then Howard changes his density again, giving Dagger a uppercut from beneath him-
Howard: Take this!
Garren: Da hell!?
Lea: -sighs- boys, you know what ghosts are?
Manuel: Animated souls.....-a light in his head goes on- Ooooooooh.
Garren: He can change his density
Dagger:...now im really mad you glowing freak -tries to smack his head with his baseball bat, not hitting do to the normally low density of ghosts, and then, Howard gives him a roundhouse kick- Uuuh
Howard: Fufufufu, think twice before you attack a fellow jewel merchant -activates his drill gauntlets- Spirit Drill! -hits his right arm drill to injure Dagger's left arm-
Dagger: GAH! You, glowing bastard!
Howard: Im born honest born ghost, thank you very much -_- -hits his head-
Dagger: -stands up, holding his injured arm, wanting to bite him-
-then, the police came to help-
Antony: San Diego Police! You're under arrest!
Howard: We got him -pushes Dagger to the Police-
Dagger: -coughs- It is not over you, the Bling Draugs are many! My boss will boil you in saltwater Ghost-man!
Antony: -sees Garren- You again? Have you gathered a group of lawless defenders or what?
Garren: Well....
Howard: We are a Guild, Officer, so actually not that much selbstjustiz as you might think.
Garren: Uuum...
Antony: Oh? Really?
Martin: Eeyup -shows the papers-
Antony: Hm....-looks to Garren- First saving a Succubus from greater injuries, now this. You are a weird one boy. -goes back to his collegues and drives Dagger to the Police Department- And i thought this Atlantean in the 1980s was bad enough.
Garren: Did you really meant that Howard?
Howard: Sure. This felt very good doing something like this, and as i heard from Martin that you often have some fun -helps up Levi-
Levi: I owe you one Howard.
Howard: No no, it was my pleasure.
Kenji: A guy who can change his density would be very useful in our small team.
Garren: Alright, you're in, but first! -shows the papers- sign up
Howard: -does exactly that-
Garren: Welcome to the Team Howard
Howard: I will go tell this my sis!
Martin: Oh, she will be excited -shakes his head and giggles-
-and so, Howard became the 5th member of the Green Hunters-
