(A/N: Ugh, over a month of no updating. X/ I hate writer's block. Hope you enjoy this chapter! And Happy 4th of July!)

(A/N: And to Guest, if it was you who reviewed "Mandrake Finds Out", wondering where Finn was, this is merely a response to said review: I wrote that before I started shipping Venus with Finn. I paired her with Mandrake first. Also, to answer your question in your review for this story, I always go with my family, so I don't really plan them myself. I Okay, hope that clears things up! On to the story!)


An Epic Disney Day

Ch. 6


"Wow," Nod looked around as they searched for the shortest line to the main Disney park, "There's so many people here."

"Yep," MK nodded, "Disney is very popular in my world. Especially with kids, and the kid at heart."

"So it's good for Venus," Nod chuckled.

Finn flinched when a nearby child suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs. "Okay," He prodded his ear, as his girlfriend also recovered.

"Owie," She muttered, then quickly perked up, "I'm excited!"

"Me too," Nod agreed, "I hope none of us get lost."

"Yeah," Finn agreed, "Venus, stay close to me." He held his girlfriend in his arms to keep her from getting separated.

"'Kay," She laid on his shoulder.

"I'd hate to get sucked up in a big crowd here," Mars slid her hand into Bomba's, and their fingers linked together, as she had a glimpse at the map, "This place looks pretty big."

"It is, trust me. Just stay close to us, and you'll be fine."

She slightly firmed her grip on his hand to keep safe. "Will do."

"You stay close too, Nod," MK turned to her boyfriend.

"'Kay."

Soon, they were up at the entrance, as their hands were stamped by the cast member. "So this stamp will be proof that we're in here with permission?" Mars confirmed.

"Yeah," The man nodded.

The pale redhead pondered the concept, as she gazed at the back of her hand. "Interesting."

The cast member finished stamping their hands soon after. "You all have a magical time."

"Thanks!" Venus' smile grew, if that was possible, and they entered the park.

"It actually looks like the monorail station is a good distance from here, so we'll do other things first," MK announced.

"What about that?" Nod pointed out a horse-drawn streetcar coming their way on the track.

"That works," She shrugged, lowering the map, "Let's go in that."

"Is that a horse?" Mars asked Bomba.

"Sure is," He nodded.

"It looks big," Venus remarked.

"Well, how else could it pull that big carriage by itself?" Nod smirked.

"True."

The group nestled in the carriage, on the bench seats after it stopped, as other park-goers boarded. "This ought to be relaxing," Mars commented, seated away from the edge.

"Finn, can I sit by the edge, please?" Venus requested. "I want a better view of outside."

"What? You don't like seeing me?" He teased her with a chuckle. "They said no small children at the edges."

"But I'm not a child."

"I know, sweetheart, but I want you safe."

"Well, okay. Thanks." She laid on his shoulder. "This seat is more in the shade anyway."

"Yep," He held her closer, "Now your pretty, ivory skin won't burn." She shyly blushed as he rested his forehead close to her scalp.

"It's my understanding that this place is typically called "the happiest place on Earth"," Mars remarked, "Isn't it?"

"Yeah, it is," Bomba nodded.

"Well, it's pretty promising so far. Are those buildings fake? As in, not really a theater and such?"

"Yeah, basically," He replied, "They're replicas."

"Wow," She gazed at them as they slowly passed them by, "They're exquisite. So authentic, and realistic."

"This sure is relaxing," Nod remarked.

"Yep," MK agreed, "This is more efficient than walking. At least, until we get to that castle."

"Is that real?" He asked her.

"Oh, no. It's the official entrance to the park, modeled to look like a castle."

"Ah. It looks impressive."

"Oh, it is, Nod. Especially up close."

"This sure is relaxing," Mars remarked, "I can't wait 'til we get there."

"Well, I know you're going to love the parks," Bomba held her closer by her shoulders, "Pretty much everyone in this world does."

"I can see why. This is already amazing. Um, I've read about some things that humans do for fun, but I never thought I'd experience one of those things for myself."

"It's pretty exciting for you, huh?"

"It is," She nodded, "In fact, it's a dream come true."

"I'm glad you're already having a good time."

"Thanks. I really am."

"We're barely in the place, and it's already awesome," Venus remarked, her head still on Finn's shoulder.

"You know what, Ven? I agree," Finn rested his head on hers carefully, "But... you know the best part?"

"What?"

"Since we've come out here, I've been able to spend every moment of every day with you." He kissed her hair lovingly. "I love being second-in-command to the Leafmen back at home, but I also love being with my favorite girl."

"Aww, Finn," She blushed, "Thanks. I love spending every moment with you too. My favorite guy." She cuddled into his neck, and watched the scenery roll by slowly. "This place is beautiful so far."

"Yes it is," He nodded, "And judging by the massive crowds, it seems to be a lot of fun."

"Oh, I know it'll be!" Her smile grew. "It's gonna be awesome!"

Soon, the carriage stopped at the designated spot, in front of the castle, so the passengers disembarked. "That was nice," Mars remarked.

"Whoa! That castle is huge!" Venus exclaimed.

"That's the entrance to the first area with rides," MK explained, "It's pretty impressive, huh?"

"Yeah!"

The group walked through the castle gateway, the Leafmen in awe. "Hey, there's a costume shop!" Venus pointed out.

"Yeah, but I think those are just for kids," MK pointed out.

"Ohh, okay!" She giggled.

They walked out of the entrance, and saw a few rides before them. "Wow," Mars breathed in awe, "This is so cool."

"What should we do first?" Finn asked around.

"Hmm," MK spotted a ride directly in front of them, "How about the carousel? It's a classic."

Venus saw the ride spinning slowly, and was interested. "I'm in!"

"Me too," Mars agreed, as did the guys.

"Okay then, let's get to it," MK nodded, and they joined the line to the King Arthur Carrousel, "We'll only have to wait 5 minutes; that's not too long."

"That's good," Finn remarked, "This looks nice."

"I like it already!" Venus piped up excitedly, watching the ride spin again.

"You know what, Ven?" Nod turned to his youngest adoptive sister. "I do too."

"It's too bad Ronin is missing out on the fun," She remarked.

"He's fine, sis," Nod assured her, "Knowing him, I think he'd prefer staying home over actually, y'know, having fun."

Venus giggled at that. "True."

After a few more minutes, the group made it to the front of the line, and were granted permission to board. "MK, will you need help boarding?" Nod offered.

"Oh, no thanks," She kindly declined, "I've got it. Thanks anyway." She boarded one of the horses, one to the middle left, as Nod sat on the one to her left.

Mars managed to step up on her horse with a bit of struggle, one on the far right, as Bomba was in between her and his daughter. "Interesting concept," She commented, "The horses move up and down, as the structure spins around?"

"Yeah," Bomba nodded, "Pretty simple, but is a classic."

Finn smiled when Venus struggled to board a horse in front of the group, in the middle right. "Need a little help there?"

"Yeah," She replied sheepishly.

"Here, I got you," He chuckled, as he lifted her up with a joking grunt, and set her on the saddle, "There you go."

"Thanks!" She smiled, and he sat to her left. She smirked at how easily he boarded his horse. "Rub it in, why don't you?"

"Why don't I?" He laughed with her.

After the announcement and safety recommendations, the carousel started its slow, spinning motions. "Here we go," MK looked around at the rest of the group.

"Wheee!" Venus squealed, gripping the handlebar. "This is fun!"

"I have to say, I can see how this is a classic," Mars turned to Bomba, who nodded in agreement, "The up and down motions and the slow spinning are kind of soothing, and the music is catchy."

"This kind of feels like riding a bird," Nod remarked.

After a minute or two, the ride slowed to a stop, and the passengers disembarked, Finn helping Venus down. "That was great!" She exclaimed.

"What should we do next?" Mars asked around.


(A/N: I know, not very exciting, but the excitement will start soon. You know the disclaimer.)
