Shawn age 10
Shawn and his dad were finally able to take Gus down to the board walk in San Fransisco. Or in other words, Shawn's mom finally forced Henry to take the boys somewhere other than the police station. All the different boothes and people yelling out their wares was exciting to little Shawn and Gus. He wanted to see and remember everything and thanks to good old dad, he could. Everything was perfect. The only annoying thing was that his dad wouldn't let him and Gus go play.
"Why can't we go to the different booths?" Shawn whined.
"Because you don't know these people, they could slip drugs in your drinks, you'd get kidnapped, and I don't have my vest." Henry explained oh so very gently. *eyes roll*
"Let's at least get some ice cream, then," Shawn begged, "Please?" he and Gus put their faces into puppy dog mode. Henry scowled but gave in. While his dad was in line Shawn saw a fortune tellers booth across the way. The sign said Madame B., Psychic.
Pulling Gus's arm he said, "Hurry. Book it for the gypsy booth." The boys looked back at Henry and when they slipped enough away, they ran across the boardwalk.
Shawn looked back at Gus to snicker but rammed straight in the open arms of the Psychic lady. She had a purple robe and a blue turban from her head on the table. Her braided balck hair was bundled up on the top of her head.
"Right on time, young man," she chuckled.
"Huh?" Shawn was confused at her statement for only a nano second.
"I saw you run into me in my vision. Running from Dad while he's in the line trick, eh?" she smiled, "Good one."
"Are you a real Psychic?" Gus asked.
"Of course," she said proudly, "It would be foolish of me to lie, now wouldn't it?"
Shawn and Gus laughed with her. "Now what can I do for you?"
"Can you see our furtures?" Shawn asked.
"I can try," Madame B. said.
"Try?" Gus asked, "I thought you said you were a real psychic?"
"Well, I can't really summon my visions," she explained,"They come and go. I'm just the lucky vessel that carries the secrets of the future on the sea of life." She suddenly blinked as if she shuddered and her head turned off to the side. She stared off into the space for a few seconds, shuddered and smiled at the boys. "Now that," she gasped, "Was a long vision.
"You boys will be very well known in the years to come. Shawn, you will be a leader of sorts. And Gus you will be very reluctant to follow after you friend but you will always be there for him. As he will be loyal to you. Stay close. You can never know when dangers will try to pull you apart," she said more seriously at the last part. "Now you might want to hurry back to your father before he knows you're gone."
She shooed them away and Gus whispered to Shawn, "So do you think she's a real psychic?"
"Who knows?" he whispered back, "But I'm gonna be a leader and you'd better do as I say. "
"Shawn!" Henry yelled at them as they had stopped in the middle of the road. They hurried back to him and, as usual, Shawn stored the memory away for future reference.

Eddie opened the fridge and grabbed a six back of Dr. Fizz, the lunch meat, and closed to the door. On second thought...he grabbed the box of brownies from the second shelf. "I got the food!" he yelled to his friends.
"Did you grab the bread?" one of the girls yelled back.
He snapped his fingers, "Oh right." Laying out what he grabbed he took a loaf of bread from the bread box. Gathering the rest of the food he head for the door.
"Eddie, don't forget the carrots and cellery for Chels!" the other girl shouted back.
Rolling his eyes and groaning he dumped the food back onto the counter and grabbed Chelsey's lunch. Grabbing the food again he headed back to the kitchen door.
Once again the other girl shouted, "Eddie!"
"What???!!" he whined
"You forgot the ice chest." she said dryly.
Eddie sighed frustratledly and left the food on the counter again. Gettingthe box filled he finally headed back to the car. "I don't care if I left anything. You want something, you go get it!" he growled.
"So we got everything?" Raven asked.
"Just about," Eddie said putting the rest of the stuff in the car, "We got enough dough to pull this off?"
"Dough? I thought I was supposed to bring money," Chelsey complained.
"Chels," Raven exlpalined, "You do know that 'dough' is slang for money right?"
She thoguht for a second, "Oh! Yeah, now I remember. Sorry."
Raven patted Chelsey's cheek, "Yeah, I knew you knew."
"So where exactly are we headed?" Chelsey asked a little confused.
"Well the plan is to go to Santa Barbra but I just want to cruise," Eddie said.
"Sounds good to me," Raven agreed, "Let's just remember to fill the tank. I don't want a repeat of the other failed roar trip."
"Ah that wasn't too bad," Chelsey pointed out, "We did find that cute gift shop."
Raven's eyes lit up, "Oh yeah that sweet jacket and belt!" she and her friend squealed with delight over that mishap while Eddie covered his ears.
"Yeah and I was you chaufer the whole freaken time." he complained.
Chelsey giggled and spoke in an English accent, "And you did a good job, Edward." Raven laughed along with Chelsey while Eddie scowled.
"Let's not start off the trip with Ed all upset 'cause he's drving first." Raven said, "I'll drive second." With the trio made up and happy they set off from San Fransisco.
