when Griff catched up to the group, he looked for Sammy, but he was nowhere to be seen, Griff asked the man leading the group where he went, he explained he saw something interesting and like a curious dog, he chased after it, the man was still laughing at the scene. Griff’s face went blank as he imagined what could go wrong, all the money they would lose and the mess Sammy could make, so he too rushed off to look for him, briefcase and rifle in hand. He began looking for him in the kitchen, it wouldn’t be surprising that he saw meat and ran off, after asking a random person where the kitchen was he was directed towards the back of the fort, strange Griff thought, how could he have gotten all the way back there? the thought escaped him as he ran to the back.

Random guy 1: “Nice one pulling that kids leg, sending him off to get himself lost”
Random guy 2: “SHISHI I know right, serves him right for coming to a gun store to find food”

As Griff reached the back, in a corner he bumped straight into someone, knocking them both to the ground. “Oh, I’m sorry” he said as he quickly grabbing his suitcase “I should have been more aware of my… eeeeeeehh!!!” Griff smirked nervously as he looked up to see the blond marine officer from before “Yup, my luck has dried out” he thought, quickly leaping back searching for any items to use, but as luck would have it, all he had was his suitcase, the crash dropped his bag of gadgets on the floor next to Natsu, fighting wasn’t out of the question and his monster of a captain wasn’t around to help, just one option available. Griff readied a fighting stance, looked the officer in the eyes with great determination and said with a serious tone “please forget I was here”. Griph activated his wind dials in reverse direction and skated backwards away from her “bye bye” he waved with a nervous crooked smile.
