Hey everyone! I'm Pazific, a new writer of FanFiction. This of course, is my first story, or collection of stories. Mostly, they'll be little drabbles, but every now and then I'll throw in a good story for you guys. Now don't expect me to update often, maybe every two weeks or so, depends how I'm feeling. But, I'll be sure to update every month at the least. The reason I won't be updating often is because writing is a hobby of mine but I have my heart set on Animation so I work on that more than anything else. But without further ado, 101 Stories of Kick.

***Dreams Really Do Come True***
Jack's POV
Sometimes you never grow up. Especially when it comes to Disney. When I saw the classic Disney arch, the "Where Dreams Come True" slogan underneath the curvy letters of the Disney name, I couldn't stop myself from grinning.
Rudy had brought us here as a reward for winning a recent tournament. I know we live not that far away from the original Disneyland but we'd been there often and we thought it was time for a change.
So here we were; Rudy, Sam, Kim, Jerry, Milton and Me of course, driving along the winding roads, the snowy peak of Expedition Everest in the distance. Milton was in the passenger seat, helping Rudy navigate towards Animal Kingdom, our first scheduled stop. We were going to be staying at a hotel for a week, spending our days at the various Disney parks.
As we drove into the parking lot, I unbuckled my seatbelt and waited for Rudy to park. As soon as the car jolted to sudden stop, I jumped out of the car and stretched my sore muscles, stiff from hours sitting in the backseat. Kim jumped out behind me and rolled her shoulders, before pushing me over just as I was stretching my arms.
"Beat you to the tram!" She called back to me as she dashed off towards the tram. I got to my feet and ran off after her hoping that no cars would be backing out. Catching up to Kim, I matched her stride running alongside her before giving up on that and sprinting past her. I slowed to a stop at the posts set up by the tram, there were a few people waiting for the tram and it was already approaching the stop.
"Ha!" I panted, out of breath as Kim caught up to me. "Now you gotta buy me ice cream!" Kim raised her eyebrows as she bent down, putting her hands on her knees.
"What makes you think I'll do that?" She challenged, as the tram rolled to a stop. After looking around for the rest of the gang, who were not far behind us, I climbed onto an empty row on the tram.
"This." I said quickly before sliding over on the bench so that I pinned her to the side of the tram. Kim tried to shove me back but pretty soon she gave up and I ushered the others in.
"Alright," Milton sighed as he sat down, "What happened?" He asked, referring to the squished Kim who was giving me an unforgiving death glare.
"She wouldn't buy me ice cream." I grumbled as the tram set off.
"Well that explains a lot," Milton mumbled, clinging on to the back of the seat in front of him.
Kim waited a moment before letting out an exasperated sigh, "Fine, I'll buy you ice cream." I let out a triumphant grin and slid away from Kim who leaned back, enjoying the room.
I stood up as the tram rolled to a stop and we hurried to the entrance were we were granted admittance into the park. Immediately, Rudy called us together and I bounced up and down impatiently. Seeing he had little time to speak before we took off, Rudy spoke quickly.
"Okay guys, we're going to split up since I have some important business to attend to," he said, glancing towards the park before returning his gaze to us. "But you have to stay with at least one person. We can't have you walking around the park alone. We'll meet together right here in front of the gift shop at closing. So, that's all I have to say, you can go now, call me if something goes wrong."
Rudy ran off with Sam, followed by Jerry who was dragging Milton along towards the parrots. I turned to Kim and grinned, "Expedition Everest?" I said mischievously, crossing my arms, secretly happy I would be spending the day with my best friend, who was also my crush.
Kim nodded, "Expedition Everest." As if an unspoken agreement passed between us, we both turned and ran towards the mountain, dodging frustrated visitors and chuckling cast members. I kept close behind Kim, laughing at our own childish antics. We came to a stop outside the ride entrance. Thankfully we had chosen a weekday to go to Animal Kingdom, a Wednesday to be precise. I couldn't see the line at all and Kim and I progressed through the ropes and rails quickly until we reached the end of the line not far away from where we would board the coaster.
I leaned on the railing and faced Kim, "So we going on the raft ride next?" I asked. We had looked up roller coasters on the way here so that we would be prepared.
"Defiantly!" Kim exclaimed, as the line moved up. A cast member sent us to stand in line number one at the front of the coaster. I watched as the coaster pulled up to the boarding platform before slowing to a stop. The gate opened and I clambered into the cart, taking a seat. Kim jumped in next to me and we pulled the restraining bars down onto our laps. After the cast member checked the restraint, the train set off and rolled down the tracks.
It went over a few hills before making the long climb to the highest point on the coaster. At the top it slowed for a moment before curving down and everyone started screaming with excitement, putting their hands up. The train flew on the tracks and didn't slow until we reached a track lifting up from the ground torn in two. Though I knew it was part of the ride, I gripped Kim tightly and let out a childish whine. Kim rolled her eyes and pushed me away, just as the train rolled backwards on the tracks into the pitch black darkness of the mountain.
It came to another stop in front of an overhang where the shadow of the Yeti was reflected, breaking another track. The yeti roared and the train descended into the shadows where the camera flashed and we exited into the light. The train rushed around the mountain before going though the darkness once more. As the train came to a loud stop at the exit, I pushed the restraint up and followed Kim to where the pictures were displayed.
I had my hands up in the picture and Kim had her hands out in front of her like superman. Laughing hysterically, I pointed out the picture followed by the punishment of Kim shoving me into another guest. I apologized before glaring at Kim who was already halfway through the store by then. I caught up to her before dragging her back towards the entrance were we rode again and again, and again. Well you get the idea.
Kim's POV
After we had ridden Everest about ten more times thanks to Jack, we headed towards the river rapids ride. The line was even shorter there and you could practically just jump right on. I looked for a dry seat in the raft but all the seats were soaked with drops of water. Regardless, I sat down next to Jack and another few teens filled in the empty seats. The cast member checked our seat belts and we set off down the river before going up a hill backwards so that I was facing the other way.
I could feel the raft tilt backwards at the top of the hill and when I turned I could see a fountain going up from the waters in front of us, or behind us in my case. The entire time, the teens were chatting about the ride as of now one of the teens mumbled, "Oh boy." The fountain disappeared as we approached it but as we passed over it, I could feel it start up again, pummeling the bottom of the boat.
The boat floated forward and the water shot up out of the river getting everyone wet. A few let out shrieks of surprise, Jack included. The raft bumped around and I could finally see in front of the raft, which was heading to another large decent. The teens were trying to turn the raft in between laughing so that they wouldn't get wet and Jack and I followed suit. The raft tipped and slid down the incline coming to a huge stop at the bottom, slowed by the gallons of ice cold water drenching everyone on the boat.
Everyone began laughing as the raft flowed by a few more wall fountains before slowing down at the boarding platform where we disembarked the raft and trudged to the exit, completely soaked. We walked around for a bit, trying to dry off before giving up and buying popcorn at a popcorn cart in Dinoland, where we also saw Rudy and Sam riding a spinning Kiddie ride. "So much for important business," I laughed.
After we finished the popcorn, Jack dragged me over to the Dinosaur ride and we stood in line. We watched the intro video, something about sending us back in time on an unauthorized trip so that we could bring a dinosaur back with us. Exedra.
The ride went by quickly and pretty soon we were off to eat lunch at the Rainforest Café. Me and Jack sat at a table for two, and ordered our drinks. As the waiter walked away, I turned to Jack. "So, what are we going to do next?"
"How about we go on Mount Everest again?" He suggested quickly. Looking at him, He seemed to be a bit nervous for reasons unknown but I thought better than to point it out.
Hesitant to go on right after eating, I pause before agreeing to the offer. The rest of lunch, we talked about our plans for the rest of the week. After we finished eating, we walked slowly to Everest, which was thankfully across the park. We stood in line which was a bit longer than the first time and boarded the train. The ride went by quickly and Jack seemed a bit disappointed, and even more nervous than before.
"Come on Kim, let's go on one more time." He said as we walked away from the shop.
I sighed and he looked at me silently, quietly pleading me for a "yes". I rolled my eyes and let him lead me to the line.
Once again going back into the darkness, I leaned back on my seat with ease, knowing where the ride was going. The yeti's shadow appeared on the overhang once more and the train began rolling forward. Just as the train slanted downwards, Jack leaned over and kissed me.
Jack's POV
After a moment that felt like forever, I pulled away and looked down at Kim, scared of rejection. She stared at me for a few moments before kissing me back, just as the train descended back into the mountain. Everything seemed to disappear; the ride, Animal Kingdom, Disney. It was just me and Kim. Reluctant to pull away but in need of air, I leaned back.
We stepped off of the ride hand in hand, and I turned to her. "I love you Kim," I murmured, putting my hands on her waist.
Kim slung her arms around my neck an smiled at me, "Forever and Always," she whispered, putting her forehead to mine.
I leaned closer before whispering, "Forever and Always." No other words were needed. With that I tilted my head and connected my lips to hers, entering our own little world. In that one blissful moment, I thought back to the famous Disney slogan that I had seen as we entered Disney World.
Dreams really do come true.
