Aeris' POV
She sat silently typing away at her laptop on the bench inside of the bustling airport terminal. They had arrived and got their tickets early so there was much time to kill.
She glanced up to see that Leo was still running around making himself look like an idiot, telling lame jokes to everyone. It was rather embarassing, but she would of felt bad leaving him behind. She also wasn't sure of she could trust him alone. Aeris had been taking courses in college the past few years and was almost ready to get a degree in game designing, an extra perk this year was that all students got an all expense paid trip to Japan in order to meet with game designers there, and they could bring along one friend of course.
The intercom rang and began to call their flight, she brushed aside a strand of light pink her that was blocking her face,folded up her laptop, and began walking to the last security station, with Leo behind her.
As she approached the guards she emptied her pockets and let them search through her carry-on bag, then she managed to step through the metal detector without any issues. So far so good, but of course Leo had to mess it up. The alarm went off as he tried to casually stroll through. Aeris buried her face inside of her left paw and tried to hide her annoyed expression.
Leo's POV
"Oh come on,I'm clean,honest!" He tried to convince the security guards, to no avail.
The guard just glared at him,"You're packing something kid,now empty your pockets."
Leo smirked,"Oh yeah, I'm a game store clerk by day, and deranged gamer by night," he joked making a passing reference to his part time job at the local video game retailer. Aeris had really pushed him into it once the apartment rent had gone up. He then took out his Nintendo DS and handed it to one of the men.
The same guard still stared him down,"And the rest?"
Leo proceeded to empty his pockets of change and handed over his cell phone as well. Then after a long patt-down section and another passover with the metal detector, which he thought was complete overkill, they let him go through.
After getting his things back he met up with Aeris and they began walking out towards the plane. She looked over at him.
"Hold on, you had all that with you and instead decided to go around annoying people?" She asked, seeming a bit agitated.
Leo didn't really notice though and replied easily,"Turns out that I forgot to bring any good games and my phone is dead."
Aeris just rolled her eyes, to which Leo smiled just for the fun of it.
General POV
The two cats boarded the plane and took their seats next to each other. The flight attendant began going over to safety procedures. Aeris listend attentively while Leo, not suprisingly, paid little mind.
The pilots voice crackled over the intercom,"All right everyone, sit back and relax.""We'll have you in Tokyo before you can say,"Konnichiwa." "Weather looks good so we should have a smooth ride."
The ride was anything but smooth.
