Vacation XIII
Lightning stood at Seabus Docks, waiting for her friends to arrive. They should have been here by now,she thought to herself. She had won a raffle in Palompolum and won six tickets to Nautilus. She wanted to have a vacation.
That's it, nothing else.
She needed some serious time to think about some issues at hand. And maybe find a boyfriend…
"No," she said aloud, shaking the thought from her head as she heard footsteps approaching.
"Hey sis!" said a loud, cheery voice that came from none other than Snow Villers. Lightning gave Snow the most threatening look she was willing to give him. His vibrant face burned out quickly. "Hi Light!" said a smaller voice that came from a fourteen year old speck in the distance. Hope was followed by Fang, Vanille and Sazh, who was lagging behind, carrying everyone's bags.

Thank the Maker, there was. Fang had already had eight cups when Lightning was done ordering breakfast, and she was moving on to her ninth.
"You're going to get sick if you drink so much coffee," teased Vanille. She was sitting in a booth, munching on a biscuit. Hope was napping in a corner and Snow and Sazh were playing poker.
"Aaah, I fold!" yelled Snow halfway through the ride. Lightning was trying to get farther in a new book when this sudden outburst disturbed her. She could feel a head ache coming as she shut the book and glared at the back of Snow's head in a feeble attempt to burn him. A cheery music was playing while the gang sat in an awkward silence.
"Hey look! Its Nautilus!" squeaked Vanille in excitement. Everyone looked in the direction of the theme park that was quickly nearing the boat….
