It was a normal day at Fort Unicorn HQ - or at least, it would have been had the girls actually shown up…
LUCY arrives first, her sister GRACE in tow as she unloads the crate of paintball guns on the nearest available worktop, in this case, a fold-down table in the far left corner - the fort was full of secret openings you see - just as well considering the girls often had to be prepared at a moments notice.
A word about FORT UNICORN HQ; go out and find the tallest tree you can and attach it to an equally substantial tree - secure a ladder to the base of the first's trunk and climb until you see the trees meet and conjoin, further up is another section with conjoined branches, leaving a large-ish hole, big enough to fit a swing between - this was a treehouse to rival all treehouses, and some claim you'd have better luck parkouring yourself from branch to branch a la Tarzan than climbing the ladder.
It was a soggy, autumn day when GRACE GAYLE found out the hard way - rotting wood is bad enough on its own, try applying that to the only means of access (the ladder, in this case) and it's near impossible to get your footing with how slippery it is, not to mention that any one of the rungs could decide to give up there and then - suffice it to say, GRACE would've reached ground level in record time, had it not been for the quick reflexes of her older sister, who just so happened to be watching at the time.
How did the other girls manage to get up there without issue? With great difficulty, the swing ended up being an invaluable ally in that case, and as long as you didn't mind swinging like an acrobat on a trapeze, or suffer from vertigo, you could swing yourself to the top platform and pull yourself up.
On this particular day, the GAYLE SISTERS arrived first, being 10 minutes early, followed by AISLING MCKENNA who was on-time and ELARA and VIOLET who ended up being 10 minutes late…
(The sound of footsteps on a wooden floor; red converse adorning the feet of one ELARA THORN who thunders up the ladder into Fort Unicorn, swiftly followed by a pair of black leather combats that could only belong to the resident maverick; VIOLET MONTOYA)
(In minutes, both girls are standing in the treehouse headquarters, looking around nervously for any sight of everyone's favourite hardass; LUCY GAYLE - as 'luck' would have it, said GAYLE sister appears…)
LUCY: Nice of you to show up.
LUCY: You've made that excuse five times, now - must be a record.
