InsaneJournal

A gift
To: Ezekiel Gaines
From: Anonymous (Tony Carpenter)



It took awhile, but Tony eventually figured out where to find him. Fair is fair, since he somehow discovered where Tony lived first. His admirer's personal journal revealed nothing about who he was or his general whereabouts, but after going back and taking a look at some of the people who had commented to his initial post, Tony found a common connection in the girl known as Juno's journal. They belonged to a traveling circus, apparently, which was just quaint. Then all Tony had to do was look up the cirque's travel schedule and find out where they were going to next perform and make camp.

He kept himself hidden when he arrived, and after a bit of looking around, spotted the man who'd previously grabbed his attention walking out of a tent and towards a games booth. When Tony was sure he would be occupied for some time, he snuck into the tent and after deducing that it was his, left a pristine, delicious looking green apple on top of the nearest surface, clearly out of place and in plain view. When you pick it up, the apple transforms into a live snake wrapping around your wrist.

There is also a handwritten note left close to the apple: Found you. Their game of hide and seek was now 2 to 1.
