O…MG…when was the last time I updated again?? (bangs head on desk) Bad Brianna, bad! XD But really…I have been SOOO busy these past…umm…2 weeks? I forgot. Yea…
This is chapter was, for the most part, an idea from tigersmt.334 X Assasin's core, I just decided to tweak it up a bit. Hopefully you are still reading this. I f you are, here you go! Everyone else, enjoy the chapter.
Jack found Zena listening to her I-pod in one of the many rooms in Chase's home. Jack, remembering a certain robot she had malfunctioned, decided to sneak up on her. He quietly crept up behind the couch she was lounging on, and screamed. Only, he screamed because before he could do anything, he was abruptly lifted in the air from his feet by Zena's bright red and black tail.
'I knew I was forgetting something…' Jack thought to himself as Zena turned to look at him, having a smirk on her face.
"I wondered where you went off to. You looked so out of it earlier; what happened?"
"Nothing …No really nothing!" Jack said as he saw that Zena was not buying it. He didn't want to tell her that he was starting to harbor a crush on her dad. Now that would cause some MAJOR problems.
"Hey Jack! Do you think you, me, and maybe Chase could go to this carnival? It's really nice. It's near a really big sea. Please?" Zena asked suddenly, plopping Jack down on the ground. She wasn't a really big fan of Carnivals, but something about this one made her want to go.
"A carnival? Well…umm… I don't know." Jack said rubbing his head. He didn't want to go to the carnival for one reason: Where there is a carnival there are clowns.
"If Spicer says no, I will take you." Jack yelped at the hand that gripped his arm, yanking him up. He turned to face Chase who gave him a blank look. Zena eyes widened. Chase said yes? Damn, this must be her lucky day.
"You're serious?" Zena asked indecorously.
"Yes." Chase said simply, smacking Jack upside the head to knock him out of his stupor. Jack blinked, looked at Zena, then Chase, then Zena again.
"I'll come to!" Wuya walked in, rubbing her wrists. 'Then again,' Zena thought, 'Maybe not…'
"Why do you want to go to the carnival so badly?" Jack asked her. Zena quickly looked down.
"You see, my parents never let me go to the carnival before, and I really want to go! I heard they have lots of games and rides, and it sounds like a lot of fun! So can we go?" Zena looked at the three of them.
"Umm…I guess were going to the carnival." Jack said, realizing Zena wanted an answer.
"YAY!!" Zena pounced on Jack from the couch into a bone-crushing hug.
"SQUEE!!" Zena ran around the area, looking at all the rides and games they could play.
"Since this is Wuya's first time at the carnival as well, how about me and her go on some rides and you and Chase go try out some games?" Jack looked at Zena suspiciously. She wanted to go on ride with Wuya? Something wasn't right about that…but none the less,
"Sure. Why not? What do you think Chase?" Chase nodded and watched as Zena started to drag Wuya towards some rides, much to her dipleasure. Jack laughed at the witch in distress, and walked over to a game stand. It was a ball toss. Hit all the cans; win a prize. Oh yea, he could totally do this.
"Hey Chase! Come here!" He called to the warlord. Zena and Jack managed to get him into normal society clothes. Mostly, his armor was gone, leaving him in a black shirt, and green pants. Zena even managed to get him to wear sneakers, how she did neither Jack nor Chase himself will know.
"What did you want to show me?" Chase asked Jack once he was by the stand. Quickly putting 2 dollars on the counter, he grabbed one of the soft balls and showed it to Chase.
"See those cans over there? I'm gonna hit all of them in one shot!" Jack said to the man, turning around, taking aim, and throwing the ball. This set off a chain reaction. It hit the table the cans were on, which bounced off to hit the shelf on the left side of the tent, bouncing to the right shelf, then bouncing back on the edge of the table, which came back and hit Jack smack into the middle of his forehead, causing him to fall over. Chase looked down at Jack, who grinned sheepishly back up at him.
"Ok, so maybe I was wrong," Jack quickly jumped to his feet, grabbing another softball, "But this time I really will!" He tossed the ball as hard as he could. The ball went flying over the cans and hit the back of the tent. Jack glared, frustrated now, grabbed the last softball, aimed, and then threw it one last time. It brushed against the top of the highest can, but the can didn't fall.
Jack grunted in frustration. Damn it, he missed! In front of Chase too…
Chase looked at the boy, seeing how upset he was. He took out 2 dollars from his pants pocket and put it on the counter. He grabbed one of the softballs and threw it towards the cans. It hit them square in the middle of the bottom two cans, knocking them all over.
"We have a winner! Pick a prize sir!" Jack stared at Chase, mouth agape as he picked a large stuffed monkey, and handed it to Jack.
"…" Jack was to speechless to say anything.
"How about we go find some more games, shall we?" He grabbed the teen by his arm and led him away.
While Jack and Chase were playing at the game stands, Zena was having one of the time of her life. She had managed to get Wuya on two roller coasters, the bumper cars, AND on the spinning cups, turning Wuya into a nervous wreck.
"Come on Wuya! We are SO going on The ZIPPER!" She grabbed Wuya and started dragging her towards the very fast ride, which was also one of Zena's favorites.
Finally, once the group met up, Zena was extremely proud with herself. She had managed to get Wuya turn into a shaking machine, Chase and Jack had been alone for over 5 hours with no fights, and she had finally gone on all the rides. Once Chase teleported them all back to his home, Zena walked to one of the large couches, plopped down on it, and was fast asleep.
Wuya, who was still shaking, decided to turn in as well. She had a funny feeling she wouldn't be getting any sleep that night.
Once Wuya left the room, Chase teleported Zena to her guest room so she could be more comfortable, leaving him and Jack alone. He had given Jack all the prizes he had won, since he had no need for them. He turned to him and noticed that Jack had fallen over, leaving all of the stuffed animals scattered around him. Chase laughed at this.
"You are that weak you can't carry a bunch of stuffed toys?" Jack looked up at Chase and just glared. Not his fault they were so huge! Not to mention there must've been at least two-dozen in the pile. He had given Zena a stuffed fish Chase had won since she found it funny looking, and that she liked it so much.
"Well, I find it comfy laying on them, thank you very much." Jack said and plopped down on the stuffed animal he was laying on, which was a large green dragon with black wings. Chase smirked, grabbed the stuffed monkey, and rested against it right next to Jack.
"Hmm, you have a point." Jack, to tired to react, just made a noise of comfirmation, and snuggled against the toy. Chase gave a small smile, (strange as it may be) and closed his eyes, resting against the toy. Soon both were fast asleep surrounded by the large stuffed animals.
Whoopee! It's done! Chapter 10 is DONE! Ok. Well, I don't really have much to say. Probably the only thing I can think of is that "The Zipper" is also my favorite carnival ride. I rode it twice at my town fair, tis AWESOME!! XD So…
