"New York! New York! New York! New York! New York! New York! New York!" chanted Pisces while eating her pancakes in the dinning room.

"Are you alright?" asked Aquarius.

"I'm fine. But I haven't slept all night! THIS. WILL. BE. AWESOME!"

Cancer laughed. "Someone's excited."

"Almost everyone is excited," said Gemini.

Taurus took a bite of his toast. "I can't wait to try the food."

"Me too," said Scorpio.

Aries rolled her eyes. "I can't wait to go shopping!"

"Me either!" said Libra.

"I was being sarcastic."

Scorpio sighed. "No shopping. You girls take like an hour to try on clothes."

"Too bad. I'm the one deciding what we do," said Aries.

"Why you?" asked Leo.

"Because I'm the leader... And I decided that Virgo can decided whatever we do as long as we go don't spend the whole day shopping."

Leo pouted. "I wanna decide what we do!"

Virgo shrugged. "Too bad."

"Today is going to be so boring!" Aquarius stirred her spoon around her cereal bowl.

"Let's do something fun," suggested Libra.

Gemini took a bite of his boiled egg. "Throwing eggs at strangers!"

"We don't want to get arrested," said Capricorn.

"Let's sing all day. I-"

"NO SINGING!" yelled everyone, interrupting Leo.

"You hurt my feelings! It's always been my dream to be a singer... Some days I cry my self to sleep thinking-" Libra flicked Leo on the head. "Ow!"

"Let's go shopping and buy candy," suggested Pisces.

Gemini nodded. "I like that idea."

"The last thing you guys need is sugar," said Taurus.

Capricorn shrugged. "Let's go buy a cake then."

"CHEESECAKE!" screamed Aries.

"Yes. A cheesecake sounds nice," agreed Virgo who wanted cheesecake as much as Aries.

Sagittarius nodded. "I'm in the mood for cheesecake."

"Woah. Sag can talk?" asked Leo.

Libra glared at Leo. "Be nice."

"Can't talk much. I have a sore throat," lied Sagittarius.

A loud alarm went off in the living room. The zodiacs ran out to the kitchen and saw a note attached to an alarm. Capricorn read it.

"Dear zodiacs, I'm so smart that I planned a scavenger hunt for all of you. The winner gets a prize. Go to the park, I'm waiting. From your worst night mare," read Capricorn.

"Gemini," said Aries.

Aquarius looked around. "Gemini is missing so it must have been him."

"When did he even leave?" asked Sagittarius.

Virgo paused to think. "What if it's a prank?"

"Only one way to find out," replied Taurus.

Cancer shrugged. "This could be fun."

"And if Gemini decided to prank us, we'll get him back," said Sagittarius.

Scorpio nodded. "Revenge is sweet."

***

When the eleven zodiacs got to the park, they saw a note beside the fountain pinned down by two rocks.

To losers,
For your scavenger hunt I've hidden six objects that you must find. Go in pairs and find six different coloured flags.
-Gem

"Let's pick groups," said Virgo.

"But we have an odd number," said Capricorn.

Aries pumped her fist in the air. "Fire signs group of three!"

"Yes!" cheered Leo.

"I'll go with Libra," said Aquarius.

Pisces pointed to Scorpio. "I'll go with Scorpio."

"I'll go with Taurus," said Virgo.

"And I'll go with Capricorn," said Cancer.

"Go!" yelled Sagittarius and the fire signs ran away. Everyone else followed them into the forest.

***

Capricorn and Cancer were walking around.

Capricorn was mostly staring ahead. Then Capricorn tripped over a branch.

"Are you okay?" asked Cancer.

"Yeah I'm fine," replied Capricorn.

"What's wrong?"

"What?"

"You look like you have something on your mind. You can tell me if you want to."

"It's nothing."

"Something."

"Fine. I don't know how I feel about Sagittarius. She changed a lot and she said she loves me."

"Imagine yourself with and without her and see what makes you happier." Cancer thought of a good idea. It was evil, but it could work and help Capricorn.

"Flag!" Capricorn ran over to a purple flag and took it. "Now let's go find the other flags."

***

Virgo and Taurus were walking.

"Aren't you excited for our trip tomorrow?" asked Virgo.

"Yes I am," said Taurus.

"You don't look excited."

"You don't either. We earth signs are usually pretty calm."

"I have everything planned out from when we get off the plane to when we leave."

"And I bet the crazy ones can't wait to do whatever they want and forget about the list."

"That's true. I want to win so let's find those flags."

"Virgo's getting competitive. I've never seen this side of you."

"It's a side affect of having a crazy competitive best friend. Because Aries is MY best friend."

"You're worried she'll replace you with Sagittarius?"

"No of course not! Because that's not possible therefore it won't happen."

"No one said she had to only have one best friend. Don't worry Virgo, she won't replace you." Taurus climbed a tree and grabbed a green flag.

***

Pisces and Scorpio were looking around in the bushes for a flag.

"I wish there were blueberries in these bushes," said Pisces.

"I wish I could skip the rest of today," said Scorpio.

"I know right!"

"At least New York will be the perfect place for dates."

"Yeah." Scorpio found a red flag. "Found one."

"Ooh can I see it?" Then Pisces took the flag "I bet you can't catch me."

"Pisces what are you doing?"

"Having fun."

"We have to find the other flags."

"Since when are we the competitive ones? Let's play instead." Pisces ran away with the flag.

"You're right." Scorpio chased after and easily caught her. "Now you have to catch me," whispered Scorpio in her ear. She loved it when he did that.

Pisces chased after Scorpio and they were having fun instead of looking for flags.

***

Libra and Aquarius weren't really looking for flags. They were talking instead.

"So do you want to watch a movie later? There's no way I'm going to sleep tonight," said Libra.

"Sure. I probably won't sleep either. Let's have a sleepover in my room," suggested Aquarius.

"Ooh, and we can get popcorn and snacks."

"Yeah." They were walking and noticed a sticky note on a tree.

"What does it say?" asked Libra.

"If you are reading this then you're going to get eaten by a unicorn and you'll be pooped out as a rainbow..."

"Probably Leo's idea."

"Definitely."

"Leo loves saying stupid stuff like that."

"I can't wait for the airplane. I actually like airplanes."

"Look. Over there." Libra grabbed a flag.

"Let's go back now. I want to watch hell break loose as the others fight over the last flag."

"Good idea."

***

"We want to win! We want to win! We want to win! We want to win! We want to win! We want to win!" chanted Aries and Leo.

"Not everything's about winning," said Sagittarius.

"How dare you!" said Leo dramatically.

"Whatever," said Sagittarius. "There's a flag up there."

Leo and Aries looked up in the tree and saw an orange flag at the top.

"Race you up."

"Wha-"

Aries was already climbing the tree before Leo realized what was happening. Then he started climbing too.

Sagittarius sat down and watched. Both of them were climbing like there was something chasing them. When they got to the top, the branches started getting thinner. Aries climbed up those faster because she was lighter than Leo and some of the branches snapped beneath his feet. When Aries was about to grab it, the wind blew the flag out of the tree and Sagittarius caught it and laughed at them.

***

Gemini walked over to the fountain and saw Scorpio, Pisces, Aquarius and Libra there too. Scorpio and Pisces were running around and chasing each other.

"Why are you guys here?" asked Gemini.

"Because of what's about to happen," replied Libra.

Aquarius looked towards the forest. "Just watch." They heard someone scream "I found it!"

"Where are they?" asked another voice.

"THEY'RE RUNNING AWAY! OVER THERE!" screamed someone else.

Gemini, Libra and Aquarius watched as the fire signs ran out of the forest. Sagittarius held the last flag. Taurus, Capricorn and Cancer chased after them. They kept tackling each other and snatching the flag. Eventually Cancer got the flag and was about to  place both of his flags on the fountain when Virgo jumped out from behind the fountain and took his flags.

Virgo placed both of Cancer's flags by the fountain with her own. "Since we have three flags out of six and there's only five groups we win."

***

Cancer, Capricorn, Sagittarius and Aquarius were in the living room.

Cancer remembered his plan and walked over to Sagittarius. "Want to get a smoothie or something?"

"I can go with you," said Aquarius quietly. "But why did he ask Sagittarius before asking me?"

"Aqua you're thinking out loud again." Cancer whispered the plan to her and Sagittarius.

"Oh, okay then," said Aquarius. She walked upstairs.

"What are you doing?" asked Capricorn.

"Just asking Sagittarius if she wants to get a smoothie with me," replied Cancer.

Capricorn sighed. "You know how things are between me and Sag! You guys don't even talk to each other."

"What's wrong Cap. Jealous?" asked Cancer.

"No I'm not!"

"So you'll be alright if me and Sagittarius go get smoothies alone?" asked Cancer. He slid an arm around her shoulder.

"You already have a girlfriend so get your hands off of mine."

"Why does it bother you?"

"Because I fucking love her and I'm scared she'll start to like you instead."

"And that's how you get a stubborn Capricorn to admit his feelings," said Cancer. "You're welcome."

"What?"

Sagittarius hugged Capricorn. "Do you mean it Capri? You still love me?"

"Yes Saggi, I do." He bent down to kiss her.

"Awwwww," said Leo.

Sagittarius turned to face Leo. "Where the hell did Leo come from?"

"I don't know. Maybe I'm a stalker," replied Leo.

"Leave them alone." Libra pulled Leo back into the kitchen.

"Stop. You'll rip my shirt. Don't rip me shir-" The kitchen door closed.

"What made you change your mind?" asked Sagittarius.

"I guess I was afraid of losing you. That made me realize how much I care about you."

"So... Can we go back to being a couple?"

"Of course."

"That's so beautiful," said a voice fake crying from the kitchen.

"Come here and help me finish making these brownies."

"Ooh BROWNIES!"

Sagittarius, Cancer and Capricorn laughed and went upstairs to pack their stuff for tomorrow.
