This is just a funny little side story not actually important to the plot but quite funny nonetheless. Makoto, Ami and Rei have to deal with the consequences of a cyborg energy high (read as Minako Is Very Freaking Hyper) while on a jumbo jet! Needless to say, wackiness ensues as the quartet trys to hijack the plane!
"I WANT THE FREAKING WINDOW SEAT" bellowed Minako to the great annoyance of an elderly couple in front of them.
"But I need to watch for the inlet and island!" said Ami.
"I can't have any fun with this arm! I need to enjoy myself." Whined Makoto.
"Actually I just want to go into rest mode so I don't really care." Said Rei peaceably.
"Can I help you ladies?" asked a nice stewardess with straight black hair done up in pigtails.
"Can you please inform us of when we are near Zeus Island?" asked Rei politely
"That's such a small little island..." the poor stewardess was a little confused.
"My hyper active friend here-" Rei indicated Minako, who glowered at her, "is a photographer and would like to take a picture from the plane."
The stewardess agreed and walked off to serve some tiny vodka to a grumpy old man three rows ahead. Minako plunked down in the nearest seat, the coveted window seat, and started fidgeting.
"Stop that Minako! You are going to annoy the others!" said Ami.
Minako crossed her arms and started glowering." Stop being so prim!"
"Here, read a nice magazine like the girls over there." growled Ami, handing Minako a fashion 'zine she had picked up at the airport. Minako thumbed through the pages and remained bored.
"Ami!" she hissed. "I don't like boys, clothing or shopping. I am a freaking cyborg!"
"Shut up!" said Makoto, conking the blond girl over the head with her mangled arm. Rei said nothing; she was in a deep hibernation, conked out in the seat next to Makoto.
"We shouldn't have given her that energy plug Mako…." Whimpered Ami when Minako started bouncing around in her seat and turning the fashion magazine into origami.
"Lets just hope she doesn't try and become a stewardess..." grumbled the brunette. To the dismay of her friends, Minako popped up smiling like a snake and ran off to the back of the plane.
There was silence for a few minuets, and suddenly Minako came charging forward in a tight, short skirt and smart blue jacket wheeling a cart of snacks around. Ami flung herself into the aisle and on her hands and knees begged Minako to go back to the restroom and put her clam-diggers and tank top back on.
"This is fun though! Pretzels… chips… roasted nuts… liquor…soda! Coming right now!" said Minako, ignoring her blue haired friend. She bent over to a lady holding an infant. "Can I interest you in some pretzels lady?" the lady shook her head know, hoping her baby would go to sleep. Instead, it woke up and started bawling at the sight of Minako's sickeningly happy face. "Some blackberry schnapps for the bambino perhaps?" Minako tried again. The lady looked shocked and got up to find the stewardess for the next cabin.
Ami was still on her knees, watching exasperated as Minako tried to convince the mother that her baby needed hard liquor. "Mina-chan, please, babies don't drink that stuff and your being an idiot. Just come back and sit down… your not blending in…"
Minako's face drooped. "Girls just wanna have fun right?"
Ami stormed off into the other cabin and appeared a moment later, marching down the opposite aisle. She came around behind Minako and shoved the cart out of the way. Then she took Minako's hand and dragged her back to the restroom.
As soon as they went into one of the two restrooms, a young woman came out the other, wearing clam-digger pants and a tank top. She walked over to Makoto and told her that they were over Zeus Island.
"Thanks very much. And I think your outfit is in the other restroom." Makoto woke up Rei after thanking the stewardess and then they went up to the cockpit. The passengers heard the captain scream and all of a sudden Rei's voice came over the intercom.
"Okay ladies and gents, the captain and his co pilot have taken a little nap while we take you on a tiny little detour. We forbid panic on this plain and it's going to be all peachy-king. Just fasten your seatbelts and enjoy our piloting skills for a couple minuets."
Of course the passengers did panic and when Ami and Minako came out they fell on top of two very sexy men when the plane took a sharp turn. "Hello! Just thought we'd show you what Japanese girls are all about!" said Minako cheerfully.
"Um…we live in Japan." Said one. "And we have wives." said the other.
"Go sit down you two and stop acting like prostitutes! The plain has been hijacked anyways!" said a little old lady, who looked very excited about the prospect of having her plain hijacked. Minako tried to sit in one of the young men's laps and Ami had to drag her up to the cockpit where their friends were.
"Zeus Island here we come!" said Rei when Ami and Minako walked in.
"I WANT THE FREAKING WINDOW SEAT" bellowed Minako to the great annoyance of an elderly couple in front of them.
