She was almost done, right? She only needed to send one more flying over the fence before...what? She could leave. But he'd said if they got more they'd get something special, but it didn't look like the kids who were leaving with a significantly higher gnome count got anything the other kids didn't. So she was going to go with the minimum and leave as soon as she could. Even if she could have gotten something later, it probably would not have been worth her staying in the garden for longer than necessary. She was already going to have to take several showers in order to get acceptably clean.

Right, back to the gnomes. Hayden was on the hunt, searching for just one more. But maybe they had gotten smarter, or maybe most of the gnomes had already been thrown over the fence by the other students. Either way, there weren't many left for Hayden to find. She saw several darting through the garden quite a ways from where she was. But she didn't want to have to go after them, she preferred easy prey if possible. So she stood off to the side, slightly hidden in the garden. She waited and watched. Come here little gnome.
