The Fair
.
.
It was beautiful Friday afternoon for the city of Neo Vale, today is the first day of the 10th annual Vale fair. A normal fair, not like the infamous Vytal Festival, no other kingdoms invited, no fighting tournaments, just pure family fun with junk food, rides, and entertainment.
Weiss Rose limo just arrived outside the entranced of the fair, once she and her wife; Ruby Rose stepped out of the limo, they were greeted with applause and a massive crowd of paparazzi trying to get pictures of the CEO and her huntress wife. Twins Alex and Max Rose exited out of the limo to join their mothers. A security guard came in and escorted the Rose family to a small stage by the entrance of the fair, Weiss got on top of the stage while Ruby and the twins remained on the bottom.
"Thank You, thank you, everybody, thank you for your warm welcome. On behalf of White Rose Industries, I would officially like to start the 10th annual Vale festival," as soon as Weiss said the last part of her speech, the crowd started to clap again and confetti started to fly behind Weiss.
"I would like to thank the mayor of Neo Vale, the workers, our sponsors in getting this three-day event under way. Please go in and enjoy yourself and have a wonderful time. Thank you," Weiss ended her speech with another round of applause, she smiled and waved to the people and once she joined her wife, Ruby started doing the same.
The paparazzi backed off and the Rose family entered the fairgrounds, and they smiled at the people in attendance enjoying themselves. Max and Alex left their mother's side and started to run off to play a small game of hoops. Ruby turned to Weiss and asked, "Where's Jack and Elizabeth? Shouldn't they be here already?"
Weiss shrugged, "They should, don't worry though, they'll turn up,"
"I'm just worried about what kind of trouble they might get in," replied Ruby.
Weiss giggled and replied, "Since when were you ever worried about those two getting into trouble?"
"Since they became teenagers," Ruby said exasperatedly.
Weiss started laughing at the question and she wrapped her arms around Ruby, "Well, I know why they're like that,"
Ruby looked at Weiss like she found an answer to the universe, "Why?"
Weiss giggled and placed a light kiss on Ruby's lips, "Because of you darling," and then she unhooked her arms from the brunette's neck and started heading towards where their youngest children were playing a game.
Ruby stood there dumbstruck and said, "Now wait a minute what do you mean by that,"
Weiss giggled at her wife and faced her again, "Don't you think that you and Yang were like that when you were their age,"
"Yeah but . . . Yang and I were never that destructive," stuttered Ruby.
Weiss simply raised her left eyebrow at Ruby, "I think?" Ruby said doing a small shrug and putting her hands in her pocket.
Weiss shake her head, "Dolt," and proceeded to continue walking where the twins were.
Around forty-five minutes later, they heard a young girl screaming, "MOMS!"
Both Ruby and Weiss turned to where the voice came from and saw that their recently turned 16 -year-old daughter, their oldest child; Elizabeth Rose was running towards them and kept screaming "MOMS!" on the way.
She stopped screaming once she got to them and started breathing heavily, "Moms . . . I . . . god . . . can I . . . borrow forty lien, maybe fifty,"
Both Ruby and Weiss looked at their daughter in complete shock, "WHAT!" both replied.
Elizabeth said, "Listen, I don't have any time please, this is serious, the fate of my life is depending on it,"
Again, both women stood there in shock, what on earth did Elizabeth do to get herself in this situation that presumably is 'Fate of my life?' Well if you must know, it started two hours ago when the fair started, an hour before Ruby and Weiss arrived. Elizabeth and her 13-year-old brother Jack arrived with his best friend Ben ready to have fun in the fair. Elizabeth was playing one of the many games in the fair, and for the life of her, she was having trouble in the game. Things got worse when Jack came up to her and started playing the game she was playing and was doing a whole lot better than her and was being smug about it. She got her revenge when she found him playing another fair game which the situation was reverse and she beat him in the game and was smug about it. Which lead to a bet between the siblings to go through all the games in the fair to declare who's 'The King of Games'
So, after convincing her mothers' on lending her forty-five lien, she arrived back at another game stand where Jack and Ben were waiting.
"I thought you forfeited the bet," stated Jack and took a swing of his Red-Wolf drink.
"Never," stated Elizabeth.
She gave the money to the game man and proceeded to complete the game, which she came out on top and beat her brother's score. Jack spilled his drink and said, "What, there's no way you could've beaten my score,"
Elizabeth turned to him and with a smug smile and said, "Well, I did,"
Ben was counting the wins of the Rose sibling on his notepad and said, "By the looks of it, both of you completed all the games here in the fair and it turn out to be a tie,"
"WHAT?!" both Jack and Elizabeth shouted earning some looks from people around them.
"This isn't over, I can still prove that I'm better at games," stated Jack.
Ben was about to speak until Elizabeth cut in and said, "Oh really? How do you know,"
"I know so," responded Jack in confidence.
Elizabeth chuckled and said, "Getting cocky are we, is going to be your downfall little brother,"
"You wish," said Jack grinning.
After the Rose siblings' banters were done, Ben spoke up and said, "If you guys want one more game to determine who's the 'King of Games' then follow me,"
Both Jack and Elizabeth then followed Ben across the fair to the bumpy cars they've skip earlier in the day. Ben then told them to stay put and he ran off to get some supplies and came back and talked to the fair manager and the game conductor, he then started to set up the equipment's he brought and both Jack and Elizabeth were looking at what Ben was doing. After setting up the stage and getting rid of all the cars except for two, he went to them and handed them two play guns from another game stand.
"Here's the deal, I've gone in and set up 30 targets and your job is to hit as many targets as you can in five minutes and whoever hits the most, wins. Of course, you guys can disturb each other aims by bumping each other with the cars," explained Ben to Jack and Elizabeth.
By the time Ben was done explaining the modified game to them, there was a crowd gathered around them, anxious to see the outcome. Ben handed ammo to them and they got on the cars and began the game. People were shouting, giving their support to whoever they felt giving it too. Soon enough, Ruby, Weiss, Alex, and Max arrived at the location and witness the commotion.
Ruby went up front and saw Ben there laughing and saw her two oldest firing toy guns at targets at the same time hitting each other with the cars. Jack then fired a dart at Elizabeth and then ran into her to throw her off balance, then he hit her intended target.
"You little shit, you cheated!" shouted Elizabeth.
Jack laughed and responded, "All is fair in love and war,"
After witnessing a little bit of the game, Ruby turned to Ben and asked, "What in the hell is going on?"
Ben faced Ruby and gulped, "Uh,"
Ruby was tapping her foot impatiently, waiting for Ben's response, "Well?"
Ben gulped again, "They've had a bet going to see who's better at games, and this is the last game to see who's the 'King of Games,'" Ben said quickly.
Ruby looked back in horror at what Jack and Elizabeth are doing. Weiss went through the crowd and came up next to Ruby and asked what their children are doing, after telling her wife what Ben told her, Weiss was horrified, Max and Alex came up next to their mothers and saw what their oldest sibling were up too, "Awesome!" they said together.
Minutes later, the timer went off and Jack got his last target just in time before the timer went off. Ben then counted the scores, and after he was done, he sighed, "It ended in a tie . . . again," he said.
Everybody including Jack and Elizabeth groaned, except for Ruby and Weiss.
"You know damn well I would've won if Jack didn't fire near my face and threw me off balance," shouted Elizabeth to Ben.
"Calm down sis, all is fair in love and-" Jack started saying until Elizabeth interrupted.
"Cut the shit and own up to it, you little-" Elizabeth said until Ruby interrupted by shouting, "ENOUGH!"
Both Jack and Elizabeth saw their mother, angrily coming up to them, "You two better stop this nonsense and stop behaving like little kids and more like young adults," Ruby scolded them.
Weiss came up to them, "It's okay to have a little competition now and then, but make sure it's friendly and not aggressive like you two were doing,"
"Yes moms," both responded.
Ruby covered her face with her hands and sighed, "Okay . . . if you guys are adamant about finding out who's better at games, then I'll give you guys a challenge, and it better shut you guys up,"
Jack and Elizabeth then followed their mothers out of the bumpy cars ride and went to a shooting game. Ruby mention Weiss over to her and whispered something to her ear, Weiss smirked, both Jack and Elizabeth were just standing there wondering what their mothers are doing.
A game manager came over and handed Weiss and Ruby the toy guns. They started shooting the targets at an impressive speed and precision that left Jack, Elizabeth, and Ben in awe. As soon as they finished Ruby and Weiss fist-bumped and went to Jack and Elizabeth.
"Our high score combined is 2000, if one of you manages to beat that, then you're the 'King of Games', if not, you two have to clean the entire house for the rest of the weekend," explained Weiss.
Both Jack and Elizabeth jaws were wide open, clean the entire house? Yeah, neither of them would like to do that. They ran to the shooting range, they were given two minutes to shoot the targets and get a score to break the 2000 high score. After two minutes went by, both siblings were nowhere near the high score.
"What's wrong? If you guys think your good at games, then you should've beaten the high score," said Ruby in a sweet tone.
Both Jack and Elizabeth had an annoyed look on their faces. Ruby gave them another chance, then another, and another . . . and another. In the end, after seven chances, they couldn't beat the high score that their mothers set.
Ruby went to them and place her hands on their shoulders and with that sweet motherly tone said, "Next time you guys want to profess that you're better at something at something, make sure you can prove it," she patted them and went off to join Weiss and the twins.
"Guess we'll be stuck at the house the next two days and cleaning the entire place," said Elizabeth.
Jack sighed and said, "Yup" popping the 'p'.
They started walking towards a food stand, after all the completion of the day, they were famished.
"Bet I can clean the entire house better than you," stated Jack.
Elizabeth smirked and said, "You're on"
