It had been twenty minutes since the plane took off an they were half way to Mauna Loa. Finn sat in between Bonnibel and Marceline. Finn and Marceline stared out the window. "This is insane..." Finn sighed,
"What do you mean?" she asked,
"This whole thing is rediculous... Going from country to country, finding elements that we don't even know exist yet. All because an owl in my dream told me to so we can live in another dimension or something,"
"It is all pretty mind blowing,"
"I guess we'll find out whether this whole thing is a hoax or not sooner or later, right?"
"Yep,"
"What did your parents think about you doing this?"
"I'm only with my dad right now,"
"Oh... Well, what did he think?"
"I didn't tell him,"
"What?! Why?"
"He wouldn't care,"
"Of course he would. You're his daughter,"
"Believe me... He doesn't," Marceline continued to stare out the window. Finn finished the conversation, not wanting to bring anything else up.
After another twenty minutes, they made it to Hawaii. They went through customs all over again and officially made it to the streets of Hawaii. "Now THIS is Hawaii!" SP threw her hands in the air, smiling at all the decor,
"Remember why we're here, kids,"
"The element," Finn pointed out,
"Yeah, we remember," Marceline crossed her arms,
"Come on," Simon walked to the curb. "Okay kids, we need to get from here to Hilton Waikoloa Village to Mauna Kea... Which will take twenty seven hours but then we need to get from Mauna Kea to Mauna Loa in walking distance which will take thirteen hours and thirty six minutes... Which means we'll have to keep resting,"
"I AM NOT WALKING FOR THIRTEEN HOURS!" SP was furious,
"TWENTY SEVEN HOURS?!" Phoebe looked like she was going to burst into a ball of flames,
"Calm down, guys... Simon, can't we drive there?" Finn asked,
"No, I'm sorry, guys. You can't take a taxi to a volcano,"
"What did you guys think was gonna happen anyway?" Bonnibel asked,
"What, we we're gonna sip tea from China cups and get taken there by flying birds?!" Marceline told them,
"That's still rediculous! Plus, my clothes! That's gonna take like two days! Plus, the ride back!" SP yelled,
"SP, we need you!" Finn told her,
"DON'T CALL ME THAT, I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS!"
"I'm sorry, Stacy... Please, we need you,"
"Only if you do one thing for me," SP told him,
"What?" Finn suddenly got nervous,
"Kiss me,"
"WHAT?! NO WAY!"
"Finn, do it! It's the only way she'll come with us!" Bonnibel begged,
"How about a hug?"
"No,"
"Please Finn!" all of them yelled at once,
"Ugh, fine!" Finn looked over at SP who was applying lip gloss, he shivered. She walked up to Finn and pouted her lips. Finn felt like he was going to throw up. He faced her and slowly puckered his lips. He leaned in and quickly kissed her. "Blah!" Finn walked away from her and jumped up and down, as if trying to shake away the germs. "Okay, I'm ready to go," SP pampered her hair and waited,
"Okay... Taxi!" Simon called.
They all stuffed themselves into the cab. "Hilton Waikoloa Village, please?" Simon told the taxi driver, they were on their way.
After two hours of driving, the taxi stopped them at a deli and waited in the car. "We have another four hours in that hot stinking car," Bonnibel complained,
"It's okay, you can do it," Finn patted her on the back,
"Let's get lunch, kids," Simon said,
"At 11:00am?" SP asked,
"Would you rather wait another four hours?" Simon asked,
"No no, It's okay. We can eat," SP folded her arms. They all sat down at a booth, waiting for the waitress. A lady in uniform walked over to them. "What would you like?" she asked,
"One burger patty, two salads and three serves of fries... What drinks would you guys like?" Simon asked,
"Coke please," Finn said,
"Water thanks," SP faced Simon,
"Tomato juice," Marceline rested her arms on the table,
"Strawberry smoothie please," Bonnibel rested against the chair,
"Fire engine thanks," Phoebe said,
"And I'll have a coffee," Simon ordered and gave the waitress the menu's. "How do you afford all this, Simon?" Phoebe asked,
"A big jar on the fridge," Simon laughed,
"Plus, it will be worth it in the end," Finn said,
"True," Marceline leant her arm on Finn's shoulder. After ten minutes, the waitress gave them their orders. They ate it all with in a half an hour. Simon payed for the bill and they were on their way again.
After four hours and five minutes, they made it to Hilton Waikoloa Village. Simon payed the taxi driver the money. "Excuse me, do you mind staying here over night aswell? We need to go to Mauna Kea in the morning," Simon told him,
"Fine," the taxi driver had a very hoarse voice,
"Thank you... What's your name?"
"Bill,"
"Thanks Bill, I'll be happy to pay for your room," Simon smiled,
"It's okay, I'll sleep here,"
"Well... Alright, goodnight!" Simon walked up to the rest of the group. Finn looked down at his phone. It was 3:45pm and he had a message from Jake. He opened it as they walked into the village. It said 'Hope you're having fun :) Reply when ever you get the chance!'. Finn smiled and wrote back 'It's great!... But also tiring. See you in a couple of weeks!'. They all walked up to a Motel. It was a beach resort. "This place looks nice," SP smiled at it, they all walked in. It was very fancy and beautiful. They rented a room each for the night and made their way to their rooms. Finn walked into his room and placed his bag near the doorway. He layed down on the floor and took a deep breath. This was way more intense than he thought.
