Dungeon Drop Ride #3
"La la la la, la la la la, EIJI'S WORLD!!"
Eiji hummed and sang a little while skipping off to the next ride Fuji pointed out to. Seems like Fuji is the decider on where to go.
Ryoma and Momo were talking about the ride, wondering how it looked like and if it was terrifying like Heart Attack.
"Could be…" Ryoma said
Momo shook his head furiously, "I don't think I'd survive another ride like that!"
Ryoma raised an eyebrow, "You seriously think you'll die?"
Momo shrugged, "Maybe, I don't like sudden scares."
Fuji overheard this and said, "I overhead something that a girl fainted on a roller coaster because of a weak heart a few years back."
Eiji heard this and bounded over to Fuji, "Really?"
Oishi ran over, "Did she die?" he asked, astonished.
Fuji shook his head, "No. She didn't," Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "But someone had to shake her to wake her up. She never goes on rides anymore."
Ryoma frowned, "Did you know this girl, Fuji-sempai?"
Fuji shook his head, "No…but I was worried when I heard."
Inui flipped out his now dried notebook, "Fuji is sympathetic." He inputted that statement in Fuji's section of his notebook and closed it.
"Okay, you all are done now right?" Tezuka asked. They all nodded.
"Okay, then. Let's go."
Eiji jumped and started to sing again, "My baloney has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R! Lalala! Lalalala!"
Everyone sweatdropped as Eiji skipped away, "Oishi-sempai…" Ryoma said, Oishi turned to him, "Yes, Echizen?" Ryoma blinked, "Are you sure Eiji didn't get hit on the head with a tennis ball a while ago? Or that his sugar rush is gone?"
Oishi blinked and sweatdropped, "I…" Ryoma and everyone looked at him, he slumped in defeat, "No. I don't know what gets him into perky attitudes a lot these days."
"I see…" Ryoma muttered, then Eiji's voice rang in their ears.
"HOI!!! Minna-san! Nani suniayo? HAYAKU!!" (1)
The remaining regulars began to pick up the pace, not wanting Eiji to start whining…again…
!OoOoO!
--Entrance and interior of Dungeon Drops--
"…!!" Momo, Ryoma, Kaido, Oishi, Taka and Eiji cringed in fright.
"Hmm…the maker of the ride seems to have had an interesting…designer…" Fuji said, amused.
"… …mommy… …!" whimpered the previous six boys, though Ryoma whimpered it in his head as he kept a cool, albeit nervous face.
The entrance and interior design of Dungeon Drops was very, how you say, dark and gloomy. There were skulls for the walls (catacombs), 'blood stained' desolate halls and staircase. Inside was dark, the only light available was the entrance. The way to the ride was lit with very few big candles, making it seem like people were walking to their own deaths.
Eiji had given up on being happy and hyper or whatever he was doing before as soon as he and the others stepped in the ride's entrance.
Outside, the design for Dungeon Drops' entrance was a freakishly huge bat, with two skeletons on both sides. The bat had evil blood red eyes and its white fangs were tainted with blood.
Eiji shivered as he clutched Oishi's arm tightly. The design freaked him out.
"Let's go." Fuji said, smiling, "It'd be a waste of time to get to a ride and not ride it."
Everyone excluding Tezuka gulped in nervousness and walked across the 'blood splattered' floor. The light was diminishing at a fast pace. In no time at all, the regulars were encased in darkness. The only sources of light were now the candles, the orange glow radiating off seven of the frightened Seigaku students' faces. One remained impassive as the other simply smiled in anticipation.
They arrived at the staircase and began to ascend. Eiji and Oishi observed the rocky ground. The indents were filled with small bones.
"Eek!" Oishi squeaked.
The staircase was now only lit with four huge candles spread out in distance.
The regulars bunched together, frightened by the designs.
Then, after what seemed like FOREVER, they saw light.
Fuji frowned and said, "Weird, usually people see light when they die…hmm."
"FUJI/FUJI-SEMPAI!!" yelled the Kouhais and Oishi, Eiji and Taka.
"Nani?"
"Yametta yo!!"
Fuji smiled, "Sure." 'Not.'
Tezuka sighed as they approached the light.
Everyone was blinded when they stepped out of the darkness and into a well-lit room with candles in chandeliers. The room was like a castle dining room; where there would be a table was the coaster, and where there was supposed to be maids and other people, were skeletons dressed in maid outfits or regal outfits.
Eiji blanched, "Kowai…"
Momo agreed, "Seriously."
The interior of the line-up was just as gruesome as the previous hallway, staircase and entrance.
It was covered in red spider webs and the floor was draped in red carpeting and the carts were black and gruesome, serpents with fangs and horns and scales. The insides of the carts were black splashed with red, like someone was killed in it and the handlebars were…skeleton bones.
"Seriously, the designer must have been a horror movie set designer…this place is creepy!" Momo whispered to Eiji, who squeaked and clung onto Oishi tighter. (AN: …O.O…)
As the black gates opened for them to get in, Ryoma noted that the 10 individual carts only fit three people and voiced this to his friends.
Tezuka nodded at this and said, "Okay, we'll go in partners of three. Choose now."
Momo slung an arm around Kaido, "We'll be going together!" he said with a grin.
Kaido looked annoyed somewhat, "Let go of me. Fsshuu."
Oishi went wide-eyed, "I'll be going with them, in case they decide to kill each other…" Oishi muttered the last part to Eiji and Tezuka so they would understand.
Eiji suddenly broke out of his fright and let go of Oishi, jumping up and down, and smiled, "IT'S OKAY!!" Then the cat-acrobat jumped on Ryoma and hugged around his neck.
"I choose Ochibi and Taka!"
Taka smiled, "Sure, that's fine by me," he said.
"S-Sure, but –ACK!—Eiji –pai! Watch –gasp— your strength! –cough— You're choking me!" Ryoma strained out, with his hands gripping Eiji's arms.
Eiji let go, "Sorry!" he said, still grinning.
That left Inui, Tezuka and Fuji to go with each other.
The speakers above came to life as the boys got in the separate coasters.
"Ohayo, minna! O genki desu ka? Dungeon Drops will be starting in three minutes, so buckle up! Please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicles at all times. We don't need any more injuries or deaths—"
Here the voice stopped abruptly and started again.
"A-ah…I mean, we don't want any injuries or deaths, 'scusé moi. (1)"
Everyone in the vicinity turned pale and they stood in fright while their eyes widened in shock at the first statement.
'We don't need any more injuries or deaths.' Echoed through everyone's head, but before they could run screaming out of the ride, the doorway to the line-up closed. Trapping everyone.
Our poor favorite tennis players were quickly strapped in the harnesses and the skeleton-handlebars slammed down, ("UNYAA!! WATCH IT!" Eiji yelled as his hand almost got crushed, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?" Momo shouted, "LEMME OFF!" Kaido cried, "I DON'T WANNA DIE!" shouted Oishi and Taka.) The people in line of Dungeon Drops gasped in shock as the ride began to start. They started to shout in protest to let the boys off.
"What are you doing?!"
"Let them off!"
"Let them and us OUT!"
"STOP THE RIDE!"
Unfortunately, the conductor was on STRICT orders by the manager to NOT let anyone off the ride.
"Sorry, everyone…" he said sadly.
Everyone's eyes grew the size of dinner plates, "AHHH!!!"
Then Ryoma piped up, "Why are we heading towards a huge fireplace??"
The regulars and people in Dungeon Drops turned to where the cart was heading and gaped.
Where there was the exit of the coaster, a—
"Fireplace??" said all nine regulars.
Indeed, instead of an exit for the coaster, there was a huge fireplace, with raging red, crackling flames leaping up from the ground.
Their eyes widened.
"WHOA!! LEMME OFF NOW!!" Eiji shrieked, along with everyone else except Tezuka and Fuji.
"Not my shift…" said the conductor as he pressed the green button on the machine.
Again gasps were heard and this time shouts were accompanied.
"This isn't right!"
"STOP IT!"
And so on.
Eiji was clinging onto Ryoma now in fear while the boy tried to get air into his lungs.
Taka was doing his best to stay calm but his face betrayed him in that level.
Kaido and Momo, miraculously set aside their differences and hugged each other for dear life.
Oishi, who was in the middle, had to lean back so the two could have their…moment…(AN: ……O.O)
In the front cart, Tezuka inwardly gave a suffering sky and asked ANY deity or god/goddess that was looking down at them, WHAT did he do to deserve this? Fuji was chuckling slightly and was grinning satisfaction as he heard and saw frightened yells, shouts, and shocked/scared faces. 'This just made my day.' He thought. Inui was tightening his grip on his notebook with one hand as he gripped the handlebars tightly with the other that his knuckles turned white. 'This could call for some good data keeping, but I'm scared shitless now.'
Then the ride burst in speed, the cart ran straight through the fire!
Everyone gasped as the regulars, excluding Tezuka, screamed.
Fuji was laughing loudly as he and the others went through the fire.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" screamed the remaining seven.
"YAHHH!" Taka shouted, "I'm BURNING!!!" …Literally, he had gone into –burning-ride-mode when they entered the fireplace.
"AH! HOT HOT HOT HOT!!" Eiji cried, "IT'S! IT'S!" he paused, "Not hot?" (2)
"WAHH!!!" Momo and Kaido wailed, then they both stopped, looked at their position, abruptly let go and looked at themselves, "I'm not ashes!" they both cried.
"Thank god." Oishi sighed.
They were in darkness, the ride was still going.
Then, out of the blue, on both sides of the snake cart burst out FIRE and the whole ride lit up. All the boys screamed as lava flew over their heads and bats flew towards them, shrieking.
The ride shot up, freaking all the boys out, then down, making them shriek. Then up, screams. The serpent cart waved up and down the tracks, lava and fire geysers spewing their contents all around them.
When it was running into a fork in the tracks, the boys were horrified, ugly images on where each led them.
"Where are we going to go!?" Momo shouted
"I don't want to visit the devil!!" Eiji shouted.
Kaido was babbling incoherently as he gripped the handlebars, he and Momo had long since let go of each other.
Then came the unexpected, the carts SPLIT into three separate carts!
The front cart containing Tezuka, Fuji and Inui veered to the left.
The middle one containing Momo, Kaido and Oishi flew straight in the center.
And lastly, the third cart carrying Eiji, Ryoma and Taka veered to the right.
"OISHIIIIIIII!!" Eiji cried trying to reach out for his aibou.
"EIJI-SEMPAI! KEEP YOUR HANDS INSIDE THE CART!" Ryoma shouted as he pulled Eiji's arm down, and just in time, their cart dropped down the tracks into the lava below, making all three hearts jump into their owners' throats.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
TENIPURI CATCH: Chibi Taka leaning forward while grinning and laughing insanely while the cart is moving. Fire bursts out. Chibi Eiji wails in fear and hugs Chibi Ryoma, who is trying to pull Taka back down in his seat, so tight, the poor chibi-neko turns blue and his eyes animatedly turns to swirls from lack of oxygen. "OKAA-SANN!!!!!" Chibi Eiji screams. "H-help…!!" Chibi Ryoma squeaks. "YEAH!!! GREAT-O!!!! FASTER!!" Chibi Taka shouts.
!OoOo!
"YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
Momo, Kaido and Oishi clung on the handlebars for dear life as their cart kept going turbo. The fact that they could be knocked off their carts and into the fiery burning depths below didn't make them feel better.
"LE CRAAAAAAAAAAAP!!!" Momo screamed
"OHMYGODOHMYGODI'MGONNADIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Oishi screeched, tears leaking out of his eyes.
"AI-YAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" Kaido yelled, saying the Chinese term for releasing frustration.
The cart turned a hard right and dropped down the tracks and into the fiery depths.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
TENIPURI CATCH: Chibis Oishi, Kaido and Momo hugging each other while gripping the skeleton-bars with one hand, screaming either; "FUCKEN CRAP!" or "LANGUAGE MOMO/KAIDO!!" or "WHO-THE-HELL CARES-BECAUSE-WE'RE-GOING-TO-FUCKEN-DIE-ANYWAYS!" or "OH-YEAH-OKAY-GO-AHEAD-AND-CURSE!!!" Chibi Oishi's eyes turned to HUGE saucers as lava shot up; nearly an inch and his, Kaido's and Momo's heads would have caught on fire. "YAAAAAAAAAAHHIIIIIIIIIIIEEEYAHHHHHHHHHH!!"
!OoOoO!
"…" Tezuka was quiet as the cart he was in swerved to the right, then zoomed up, then dropped down.
"WHEE!!!" Fuji laughed, he was hearing his other team-mates scream somewhere in the evil dungeons. He was really enjoying this!
"HOLY CR--!!" Inui started as he felt like he was about to fly out of his seat. (AN: Almost happened to my friend, she survived though, THANK GOODNESS! T.T)
"Language, Inui…" Tezuka said calmly, even when fire blew over his head, nearly igniting his hair.
"G-gomen!" Inui said, then screamed as a bat almost met his face, he ducked.
"Come on, Inui! It's not that bad!" Fuji laughed as a lava geyser burst a few inches near his shoulders.
Inui was appalled. 'ARE THEY THE ONLY ONES NOT AFFECTED BY ANY RIDES HERE?!?!' he screamed in his head. 'THEY'RE NOT NORMAL I TELLS YA! NOT NORMAL!!'
Fuji grinned as if he could read Inui's thoughts, and said, "Inui, of COURSE Tezuka and I are normal, we don't have horns, fangs, devil tails or sadistic ideas to torture people, do we?"
Inui shuddered, "N-no…" 'YOU'RE THE ONE WHO HAS ALL THOSE THINGS!'
Fuji again, as if he read Inui's thoughts, "Yeah, you're probably right! WHEEE!!!" Fuji whooped as the cart went turbo and shot up the tracks, then back down; as in DOWN, like WALL down.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" Inui shrieked like a girl.
"…" Tezuka sighed.
TENIPURI CATCH: Chibi Tezuka with his arms crossed, eyes closed, sighed exasperated. Chibi Fuji throws his arms in the air, laughing and just really having the time of his life. Inui kept screaming while his tears flew off his hidden eyes, evaporating in a second as the ride dropped down into fiery depths.
!OoOoO!
As if by some CRAZY luck/chance, all three carts dropped into the same place and…stopped?
Anyway, when the carts dropped down, the temperatures and surroundings turn cold, blue, and black.
"Hah…Ahha…." Every freaked out Seigaku regular boy breathed heavily and tried to calm his racing heart down.
"BIKKURISHITA!!" Eiji and Momo gasped. "That took off 10 years of my life." Oishi said, "…Let's hope not." Tezuka said.
Then they all realized it, at the same t time. "MINNA!!! " they all shouted, well…except a certain freshman.
"Fsshuu? What happened to Ryoma?" Kaido asked, his heart still racing.
"Eh??"
Everyone turned to look at the youngest member of their group, seeing him passed out with swirly eyes and in Eiji's strong hold.
"UNYAA!!! OCHIBI!!!" Eiji gasped, letting go instantly.
"O-oi!! Echizen!"
"You alright?"
"SAY SOMETHING!"
"Echizen-kun?"
Ryoma's eyes turned back to catlike as he blinked blearily, "I'm alive…?" he asked.
Fuji laughed, "Yes, you are."
Ryoma sighed, "That's good," then he turned to Eiji, "Eiji-sempai?"
Eiji gave him a CUUUUTE adorable look, "Hai hoi?"
"I'm never going on a ride with you again…" Ryoma said, rubbing his neck, "You have a strong grip."
Eiji and everyone else sweatdropped.
"Gomen." Eiji replied.
"H-hey…w-where are we?!" Momo asked.
They all looked around them, and paled considerably.
They were in the dungeons. 'Blood stained' cells with metal bars and…gory skeletons that STILL had 'flesh' on the bones were hanging from chains.
They all stared at the sick sight. There were RATS too! (Robot rats, but they don't know that.)
With wide eyes, all of the tennis players muttered "W-what in the world…?"
Eiji stuck his tongue out in an "I'm-getting –sick" way as he yelled, "DISGUSTING!!! EEE YUCKO!"
Then one by one, each cart moved forward, and connected again; this time it was Eiji, Taka and Ryoma in the front, with Tezuka, Inui and Fuji in the back, and Oishi, Kaido and Momo's cart was in the middle; each cart moved up one.
The carts, now fully back to one serpent; moved slowly across the tracks. All the boys were thinking that the ride was over, they DID spend at least three minutes riding with only two people in a cart.
"Hmm..." Fuji hummed, "The ride could be over..."
"YES!!" Momo and Eiji shouted along with frantic nods of approval by the others except Tezuka.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" A scream suddenly burst out of the darkness and froze the very core of each boy.
"HOLY CRAP WHAT WAS THAT?!" shouted Ryoma.
Then as if to answer him, a severed head dropped down in front of his face.
"..." Eiji and the others turned to see Ryoma's expression
"..." first it was widened eyes. Then came the scream, "WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
Ryoma screamed and he instinctivly leaned back as far as he could go
"BWAHAHAHA!!" Everyone else laughed, it wasn't everyday that you see Ryoma get scared out of his wits
Ryoma was shaking from fright and he didn't snap at his friends, which was odd
"Ryoma?/Ochibi?/Echizen?" asked the older boys
Ryoma didn't answer. All he did was squeeze his eyes shut and shook his head furiously. "D-don't look up." was the only thing he said before he shat up.
"Hnn?"
Out of pure curiousity, the regulars looked up and blanched
--Curiousity killed the cat, satisfaction brought him back...or killed him again--
!OoOoO!
In the line-up, the still apalled stangers heard multiple screams come from the other end of the ride. The women gasped in fright, and the men shook from fright also. 'Those poor boys!!!' thought the women 'Hope they're still alive' thought the men.
!OoOoO!
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" screamed the regulars.
When they looked up, severed heads and limbs dropped down inches from their face.
"DUDE!!!!!" Momo shrieked.
"SCARY!" Eiji added
"MOMMA!!!" added...KAIDO?!?!
Then the ride scared the shit out of all of them when it zoomed across the tracks, not giving them time to react as skeletons, ghosts, rats, bats and other disgusting horrible creatures popped out from their hiding places.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" they all screamed, this time, Tezuka had a reaction: wide eyes and an iron grip on the skeleton bars.
They boys were still screaming when they entered the line-up.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! OH MY GOD!! NO MORE!" they all shouted simultaneously.
"IWANTOFFIWANTOFF!!" shouted Kaido.
"I WANT TO LIVE! LEMME OUT!!!" Momo cried
The people waiting in line of Dungeon Drops grew nervous and frightened when they saw the boys whom were last seen, frightened, but not screaming their heads off. Everyone there felt pity for them, the conductor immediately pressed the RELEASE button and the harnesses were released.
The reaction was instanteous.
Eiji jumped out and grabbed Ryoma and Taka by the collars and ran out of the exit, screaming to the next riders and the next, "IF YOU WANT TO LIVE, GET OUT NOW!"
Momo, Kaido and Oishi all scrambled to get out of the carts and ran out, agreeing with Eiji, "DITTO!"
Tezuka and Fuji calmly, albeit a LITTLE shaky got out while Inui took off like a rocket.
Fuji turned to the next riders and said, "Good luck." And left with Tezuka tailing him.
The stunned people looked at each other, then the carts, then at the conductor and back at each other again. It took only ten seconds before everyone scrambled for the exit, but it was too late. The conductor sighed, "Next group please."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" echoed throughout Dungeon Drops.
!OoOoO!
The Seigaku regulars panted heavily as they got back out in the sweet sweet morning light and air.
"Thank god it's not night yet." Taka said, now out of "BURNING!" mode.
"I concur." Eiji agreed, where he learned 'concur' from? No one from Seigaku wanted to know.
Fuji looked at his watch, it was now 10:10.
"That ride took longer than I thought," Fuji said, "Guess we were having too much fun the time flew by."
Ryoma and the others except Tezuka looked at Fuji incredously, "I did NOT have any fun on that thing!" they all said.
"I think they were all afraid except you, Fuji." Tezuka said.
"Eh? Tezuka, you were afraid?" Fuji asked, smiling.
The other seven looked at Tezuka expectantly.
The boy sighed, "No. I wasn't. I was irritated."
Five boys' anime fell. Typical…
"When will it be when Tezuka will actually be afraid of a ride?" Oishi asked out loud, he got four shrugs for answers. "Who knows," Taka replied.
A certain prodigy and data specialist knew though. 'Guess it paid to be in that cart…' Inui said, secretly writing in Tezuka's section: Tezuka is afraid of monster rides. 'Good, excellent data…' Inui thought before he quickly closed the book before Tezuka saw.
Fuji sighed, 'I SERIOUSLY want my camera…' Fuji mentally whined and wished as they all went off to ride another deathtrap; only smiling when he heard terrified screams from the dungeons above.
Okay, that was 12 pages of Dungeon drops. Wow, I'm shocked again…
(1)French for 'Excuse Me'
(2)There is this chemical that when you light it, it's becomes fire, but it's not fire. It's like cold fire. It doesn't hurt you at all. I dunno what it's called though, I heard it from my friend.
Review please! I started this ASAP, which was after I uploaded chapter 3. Teehee, I guess the writing bug affected me, anyhoo, I have summer school and I have to go at 9am on Thursdays. Which means I'll be bundled with…ugh…dare I say it? HOMEWORK—dies from word— anyway, expect updates in a week or two, takes me that long to finish a chapter. Oh hey, I have no ideas on what other rides to come up with, so could you help me? Please and thank you. Got to go now. SCHOOL. T.T
