Shockwaves: A Suite Life/Waverly Place Crossover

Part 4:

In Maddie's closet suite(aka London's)…

London was moving into Maddie's huge suite her own valuables. London took many of them with her from an overnight return trip from England shopping.

Maddie was helping unload them.

This version of the huge suite was colored in more varied earth theme colors:

Blue, yellow, green, brown, red, etc. From the jewel and fake fur covered dresses to the wallpaper.

There was a big fountain of fresh drinking water in the center modeled after Niagara Falls itself with its own water treatment system, a buffet dining table that resets itself through small elevators that come directly from the lobby restaurant next door, and a large bed with an ocean floor color scheme.

Maddie wondered curiously, "so, what do you think?"

London answered, "oh geez! What's in the air?"

She gave a series of coughs.

Maddie explained, "oh. The air vents here have a recycled air supply and plant filter to provide clearer and cleaner air every cycle. It just takes a little getting used to."

London nodded.

She tried to clear her throat.

Soon after?

She added, "other than that? I'd say it's almost as good as my closet."

She smiled some.

Maddie assumed, "close enough."

She looked somewhat amused.

They soon enough finished setting up London's things.

A knock sounded off from the front door.

London asked, "is that the maid?"

Maddie moderately sighed.

She isn't sure she can handle seeing who got the role of candy girl in this reality...or who would be a maid for her suite.

Maddie suggested, "I'll get it."

Maddie answered the door to find nothing there…except for an envelope.

It was slipped under the door.

When she picked up the envelope?

It made her heart melt with joy.

She smiled wide.

The envelope was addressed to Maddie…from Zack on the cruise ship Z.S. Aim Liner.

The entire thing seemed to have been sprayed with cinnamon scented perfume and chocolate stains.

Maddie chuckled to herself over that.

She sat next to London on a classic green couch.

London inquired curiously, "what's so funny?"

Maddie hinted dreamily, "it's from Mr. Aim."

London exclaimed, "ooh! Who is it?"

Maddie makes a slightly embarrassed face.

She revealed, "Zack Martin renamed himself as Zack Aim."

She took out a knife letter opener and started to gradually unseal the envelope.

London laughed with relief.

She commented, "well, it's about time."

Maddie nervously chuckled.

She sighed with some frustration.

She pointed out, "we haven't even dated yet, and I'm still having second thoughts about this. I mean? He's such a child."

London recalled confused, "you know he's a teen by now, right?"

Maddie put the open envelope on the side.

She inquired deep in thought, "does that really change anything?"

London concluded confidently, "I may not know school. But, I know a lot about relationships."

Maddie tried hard not to laugh.

She remarked, "oh, come on, London. Anyone that loves you for wrong or right, and you instantly want to hang out with them."

London retorted, "who better to love?"

Maddie knew that London usually thinks of herself.

But... The more she was thinking about the answer in the bigger picture?

The pieces finally started to click into place.

Maddie asked back, "you mean for what they truly are and not what you want them to be?"

She sounded more sure of herself.

In minor confusion?

London assumed, "I guess that's one way of putting it. Does this mean that the date is off?"

Maddie chuckled.

She picked up the envelope.

She revealed, "actually London...I think you saved it."

They both looked relieved.

Maddie took out from the envelope a small folded letter.

It was a formal invitation to the lobby's restaurant.

It was called Variety Court, with a logo of a globe and a big V in the center.

It's really a food court with foods from pretty much every United Nations country imaginable:

With a double booth to go with each country.

Apparently, the Aim Hotel's lobby was expanded to fit it in one half. The waiting area was shifted to the other half.

London responded satisfied, "you're welcome. I got to go change my clothes."

Maddie wondered, "why? What's wrong with them?"

London answered, "they seem so…an hour ago. Good luck with your date!"

She smiled wide.

She started to disappear into the wardrobe.

Maddie smiled with some amusement.

She called back, "thanks!"

She started to head out of her suite.

Then... She quickly turned back to London's direction.

Maddie shook her head with a small laugh.

She left her quarters.

She thought to herself, "he doesn't care what I wear. Maybe I'll check on Alerni first though. After all? I've still got time."

In the center of Max's chain of restaurants…

As a solemn lunchtime was under wraps at the Timeless Sand(aka Waverly Sub Station)?

Jerry and Theresa were taking a lunch break themselves.

They were filling in for Alex and Max with how busy it was today.

Since this sub station is now part of a food chain of restaurants with Max in charge?

It was more crowded and unusual than what the original Russo family was used to.

Max did inventory.

He was also sending the other nearby Russos to tables...to their inner annoyance.

In between order taking?

Justin was checking with Wiz Tech professors on the World Wide Wiz Web.

They were online accounts received by Justin personally for saving Wiz Tech earlier from an egomaniac named Ronald.

Justin was trying to pinpoint where Alex was with their help. But…with no luck.

Despite only Earth and not the wizard realm being affected? The wizard community doesn't get much missing wizards and hence didn't put in a precaution for that circumstance.

However? They found out what Alex rewrote.

They will check into the Monster Hunters to see if some can be spared to personally find and bring her back alive:

To the other Russos' partial relief.

The Timeless Sand was colored in desert themed colors:

Yellow, red, white, etc. Rectangular tables that resembled magic carpets, containers shaped like canteens and fancy trays, and a menu merge of sandwich items and ice cream parlor deserts.

Max muttered, "oh, bunk!"

Justin checked cautiously, "what's wrong?"

Max revealed, "we're short on sandwiches."

Justin commented, "you sure it didn't have to do with the 6 you ate?"

He looked kind of skeptical at Max.

Max retorted, "hey! That was before being open for business."

He slightly glared.

Justin ignored the answer.

He added, "did you call the delivery service in advance?"

Max recalled to Justin's horror, "was that 381-8345 or 814-8345?"

Justin looked wide eyed in disbelief.

He also put his arms out.

He pointed out cynically, "but…they're in different countries across the Pacific! How could you possibly think the order would get here in time?"

Max remarked, "then how come most American products come from overseas trade?"

Justin pointed out in desperation, "those history documentaries about country relations from Tribeca Prep were using film magic to reenact and speed up the events of the past to appeal to the modern audience!"

Max wondered, "huh. I thought there was a reason why they didn't move much. You sure Hollywood doesn't have wizard crews?"

Justin groaned in frustration.

He insisted, "no. But, let's focus on the more serious problem."

Max checked, "and that is?"

Justin reminded him, "the sandwich shortage?"

Suddenly... Max got a idea.

He smiled.

Max suggested, "hey! What about T.J. Taylor? He was entertaining."

Justin looked horrified.

Justin pointed out, "are you serious?! He nearly turned our parents into transparent straws…and our wizard identities almost in public soon after."

Completely unphased... Max deduced, "one… Going to Mars was awesome. Two… Do we really have much else to work with here on such short notice?"

Justin was about to point accusingly at him.

But... He sighed instead.

He realized reluctantly, "you're right. Let's call the Taylors. But...but let's see if we can leave their son out of it."

Max kind of reluctantly said, "all right."

They both smiled a little.
