Foster´s Destination

By Dead Promises

Prologue: Lingering

-----------------------------------------

Waiting was no longer a setback now that the day the Foster's gang had been waiting for all month long had finally come around.

It was not like they would have expected it to be worth nothing once they could finally ride an actual blimp across the entire state.

Unless one changed its mind when they were about to make it to the entrance of it all

Which was definitely not going to occur this once.

Mac, Bloo, Wilt, Coco, Eduardo, Cheese, Goo, Douglas, and Adam were all sitting inside the Foster's bus while Frankie conduced it towards their goal area to where the blimp was supposed to be.

"I like the fair!" Cheese yelled all of a sudden as though he would have expected even Mac to care.

"Does it still remain a mystery to why we brought him along?" Bloo asked, clearly irritated from Cheese's gradual presence.

"Haven't I said it before, Bloo? Louis told me no one else was available to take care of Cheese while she was away at summer school." Mac implied.

"Can't see why that's hardly possible, who'd want to take care of this loaf?" Bloo asked once again while pointing at Cheese who was at the moment trying to put a hat on but instead, encircled it around his mouth.

"Oaf ranger, do you copy? KKKKkkkkcccc!!!…." Cheese yelled while trying to put the hat on at the back of the bus.

"Oh, come on, guys. It's not as though that's going to ruin our trip to ride a blimp, is it?" Asked Wilt, who was at least trying to shine a flashlight's worth of positive attitude toward the discontented situation.

Mac and Bloo only glared at him with both their arms crossed.

Wilt rolled his eye.

"Oh come on! At least Goo and Eduardo don't seem to be having any trouble while we're traveling!" Wilt said while motioning his hand to Eduardo and Goo who sitting next to each other.

As they sat there, they both played a game that was surprisingly not what anyone else was doing to entertain themselves.

"Okay, okay, okay, I spy with my little eye something…orange!" Goo said while covering one eye and pointing somewhere outside the window while Eduardo saw.

Eduardo looked through the transparent glass, and saw a bookstore pass by, which was exactly the color Goo had mentioned, orange.

"Oh! I know! Waldenbooks?" Eduardo asked joyously while pointing at the exact bookstore Goo had spotted.

"That's right! You're right, Ed! Now it's your turn! Spy something with your BIG eyes now" Goo replied while jumping up and down on her seat.

On the other hand, Douglas and Adam were at the back of the bus conversing about different topics while Coco kept on interrupting them with her untimely appearance.

"Seriously, do we really need binoculars, Adam? I mean, we'll be able to perceive it all from a different angle once we're inside the freaking blimp!" Douglas asked while Adam was testing out the binoculars, and after looking around, saw Coco who was blocking his view once again.

"For the millionth time, Coco, move out of the way!" Adam almost snapped before replying to Douglas.

"Douglas, making us go really high up doesn't mean we'll be able to see every thing in the entire state. With these things, I don't have to ask the person who's driving the blimp to move towards a place I want to see more clearly when I can just look through these easy fine pair of do-dads" Adam replied, while trying to push Coco out of the way as she continued to try to look more closely at his binoculars.

"I don't think the guy who's driving the blimp would allow you to even bring them on board, though." Replied Douglas.

"Not unless I do this! Hey Coco!" Adam called as Coco came to where Shawn was sitting.

"Coco?" Coco asked.

Adam grinned as he thought out what he already had planned to say from all that he previously had in mind.

"Listen, Coco, I'll let you use my binoculars if you…" And the rest of what Adam says he whispers to Coco who after Shawn finishes, smiles.

"Coco!" Said Coco as though the tone sounded quite close to "okay" as she took hold of the binoculars, and swallowed them.

"Pretty witty, huh? Once we're inside the blimp, Coco will lay an egg, I'll open the egg, my binoculars will be INSIDE the egg, and DONE! Everything else you can figure out on your own!" Adam believed with a grin after he finished talking.

"T to the Y to the PICKLE!" Said Douglas as he rolled his eyes with his arms crossed.

And so it continues to remain like this, until the bus was slowly making its way to a bridge that had big letters in scripted on it that spelled out completely " Andy Elric's Blimp rides".

"Well guys, we made it here!" Said Frankie, who turned around to look at everyone sitting behind her.

"AT LONG DANG LAST! I don't think it would have been possible to support anymore of Cheese's incessant chattering for another hour, twenty-four minutes, and twenty five seconds! Man!" Bloo uttered out, while everyone else looked at him with a glare of spaced out confusion.

Bloo just turned his head left and right to see who else was looking at him as though he were a two-tongued freak.

"What? I couldn't!" Bloo assured.

After the five seconds that people spent looking at Bloo oddly passed, the entire gang walked out of the bus, and into the great grass field from where they were situated was a couple of yards away from the blimp's holding area.

Everyone came down, except for Douglas who seemed to linger on the bus' stairs while grasping his head and sighing for a reason nobody could have known at the minute.

Adam looked back to see why Douglas was in this position and ran towards where he was.

"Are you all okay, Douglas?" Adam asked as he kneeled down to glance at Douglas' face, which was distorted at the moment with eyes tightening close.

"I'm fine, but I don't know why this is happening-" Douglas began as he opens his eyes to make eye contact with Adam.

"-But for some reason, I keep picturing these weird and horrid images in my head that won't go away, even when I try to think them off."

Adam looked behind him, to see the entire gang waiting for him and Douglas all ready to get on the blimp.

"Hold on!" Adam yelled at them so he could face back to look directly at Douglas.

"What ARE these images you keep on lodging into your skull?" Adam asked.

Douglas could not support having to remember what the thoughts appeared like, or else they would stay inside him once more.

Yet if Adam had to know, he did not have much of a choice.

"Okay, here's what I see: I see us on the blimp, already-" Douglas began.

"-We're all looking out the windows-"

Adam nods

"-Then something really disgusting and unfortunate happens." Douglas finishes.

But before Adam even asks what it was Douglas saw as described to be really disgusting and unfortunate, he freezes with a sudden pause.

Soon, Adam's eyes extended as though he remember something important.

Although it was almost impossible, neither was it any clearer than what had gone on with Adam while he and Douglas were there.

He found out what Douglas was thinking.

They both had it pictured in their noggins:

A seagull flies really high into the clouds,

When it practically gets hit by a plane, appearing out of the nowhere in the sky.

The plane loses control by that one seagull blocking its path, causing it to tilt and lose a piece of metal from its right wing.

As the piece metal flies in an exhilarating speed downward, and hits the one object that made the image so disgusting and unfortunate.

The blimp.

Had it not been for the metal's intense irregularity, that the pressure it caused the blimp was strong enough to make it explode.

However, Douglas and Adam didn't see the blimp as it came apart from the outside of where the gang and them were, but from somewhere, which was the key that opened the gruesomeness to the image they could distinguish.

The inside.

First, the pilot crashes into the window, causing a bloody mess that blinds Frankie.

Bloo tries to hold on to something, when a tube goes right through him.

Eduardo tries to hold on to something, but could not let go on time to crash into the wall.

Mac tries to reach for the door in order to escape, and makes it until the doorknob's heat intensity caused by the balloon's pressure burns his hand and his head accidentally gets burned as well when the doorknob burns right through the door.

And Mac's head.

Goo tries to make it out, when she tumbles along the walls, until she goes right through a dead Eduardo's horns.

Frankie is still unable to see from all the pilot's blood that blinded her view.

When she rubs her eyes to clear out the blood, she looks at the controls and tries to see if they can work, but gets electrocuted along with Cheese and falls to the ground.

That was the last Douglas and Adam were able to distinguish before they watched as the fire was about to consume them, Wilt and Coco.

A sight too gruesome to be anymore specifically described than it already had been in their minds.

Even though it was unlikely for all that to happen, so was it for the both to have thought out the same picture.

Nevertheless could they be incapable of taking any risks.

"We have to let them know!" Douglas proclaimed.

That's it for now, folks!

Feedback would be nice (even a flame I don't mind).
