Crazy Flume Adventure
Chapter 3 Part 1
Last time "Come on, we'll go to my house and I'll explain."
Normal POV
They went outside the cave and got into paired up. Pendragon and Loor with him driving, Alder driving with Aja, Daralis driving with Saint Dane (since he trusted only her), Patrick and Gunny with Patrick driving since Gunny had only one hand and was new to go-karts as Patrick rode them often, and much to Spader's horror, Spader and Mina since they were handcuffed together. He tried desperately to get with someone and even got on knees when he got to Pendragon but to no avail. The key was with Daralis, who just smiled slyly and evilly at him as Saint Dane laughed at him. All in all it was embarrassing.
Daralis's POV
I distribute the helmets and goggles to everyone and attached the trailer to Mina's go-kart. They all put on the given gear and get in their respective go-karts and start it up, with help from Pendragon, Patrick, Mina, and I, who refused to leave Saint Dane's side. It must have been hilarious to watch a fourteen year old girl drag the great Saint Dane around, helping all the travelers put on the gear.
After they were all properly geared up, Me, Mina, Patrick, and Pendragon started all the engines. Saint Dane and I were ahead of them, seeing as it was my house they were heading for, Spader and Mina trailing behind with the trailer. Pendragon came up next to me somehow, as I was driving like my normal self, Saint Dane clutching the bar on his side for support," So how do you feel about having a go-kart race, I win and you release Spader, you win and……?" I reply smoothly," I win and……….hmm…….Spader stays and you leave Saint Dane alone……..deal?" Pendragon looked shocked, "But, we can't just bet Halla on this race!" I smirk evilly and taunt," What? Afwaid to lose to little ol' me?" I give my best innocent look. I think I actually ticked him off, for he growled," Deal!"
I inwardly sneer," Great! We'll go to my house, I'll explain this territory, and we'll start our race after everyone's ready!"
NORMAL POV
They raced home and attempted to find Orian clothing. Mina took the guys, excluding Saint Dane, as he had already changed to fit the territory. He wore faded blue jeans and a white muscle shirt. Top it with a dark blue jean jacket and he had Daralis drooling.
Daralis took the girls, Loor and Aja, to her room to give them clothes. Aja picked out a sleeve-less ocean-blue sweater and faded capris, and, much to Mina's protest, some matching converses. (Mina had 10 pairs.) Loor was a harder case, she had to go to Daralis's mom's studio and take some of her finished works, which were consisting of……….ten tube tops of various color and design, twelve different types of pants, sixteen t-shirts, and too much more to copy down.
Loor settled for a desert camo tube top, cargos, and brown hiking boots, which came from one of Daralis's own collection. Now, let's check in on the guys, shall we?
Spader turned and changed into a blue surfer shirt, dark blue jeans, and blue trainers. Gunny picked out some wolverine black steel-toed boots, long sleeved Henley shirt that was crimson, and black slacks. Patrick had gotten to keep his clothes, as they had already met the requirements for this world.
Alder was the one they had to go to Dara's mom's workshop was at. He had picked classic embroidered crew shirt, straight from Big Dog's company, also a nice indigo color, Rockport upper falls casual boots that were a dark tan color, and dark jeans to finish the look. Last and certainly least, Pendragon picked his clothes, he chose for his boots Lowa the Seeker GTX lace-ups, for his jeans easy fit (sandblasted vintage), and for his shirt he had a white t-shirt, sporting the GAP label.
Everyone finally finished dressing and found Loor, Aja, and Daralis in a heated argument about paper……….yes paper. "I still say paper is a waste, why do you think that I write my journals on the halo-phones (1)!" Aja says heatedly. Loor retorts," Yes those silly little silver things that show your picture. I say paper is better!" Daralis shouts out angrily," I say you're both wrong! E-mail is the new thing! Typing is so much easier than hand-writing and talking!"
The boys and Mina were discussing their old battles against each other. "HA HA! Spader, remember when I turned into your Dad and mocked you!" Saint Dane slurred drunkly after a few drinks out of Dara's mother's cabinet. "Um…….Yeah…. I hate you." Spader replied confusedly and non-drunkly, they don't have alcohol on Cloral. Mina explained with a whisper in his ear. Pendragon was a victim of peer pressure from his arch enemy. He was drunk as Saint Dane and was leaning on him. "This is too good to pass up!" Mina said as she snapped a picture. Alder had passed out from intoxication.
"OK EVERYONE! I beg for you all to listen to my explanation!" Daralis shouted, happy to have won the argument of the paper. They all ignored her, except the drunken Pendragon, who slurred," H-hey, you're so-so purty…..I lo-ove you…"
Daralis POV
I cringed away from Pendragon as he tried to kiss me. I curled my hand into a fist and whacked Pendragon across the skull, effectively knocking him out.
Saint Dane laughed in a drunken manner. I sigh and announce," Ok, considering Gunny and Patrick are looking around the house, and most of the guys are intoxicated, why we save the explanation for when……….they're awake…Everyone, grab a guy and I'll show you the bedrooms."
Loor grabbed Pendragon with ease, he wasn't heavy. Aja went to Alder and surprisingly easily swung him over her shoulder and looked at the weird faces we were giving her,"What?" I shook my head and helped St. Dane up the steps. Spader and Mina just walked with the returning Gunny and Patrick.
I reached the top of the steps and to my brother's room; he left for work really early in the morning and wouldn't be back until noon. The bad thing was that it would be a bit tough to explain how fictional characters showed up in the extra bedrooms……I'm gonna die, he comes back in an hour….
The next room we pass was an extra room, I told Aja and Loor to put their respective guys in there. The next room was theirs, though I was afraid to put them so close to my brother. Nothing I can do about it now. The next room was Gunny and Patrick. Mina and Spader occupied the next room, as that's where Mina slept, not that she slept much. I dragged Saint Dane (as he passed out passed after Gunny and Patrick left) to my bedroom door and somehow opened the door.
I dumped Saint Dane on my extra bed, why I had one when we had five extra bedrooms, I don't know. I heard the door slam shut as I walked out of my room,' uh-oh…..' I thought.
"Hey, anyone home? DARA! MINA!" my older brother yelled. "Shimatte! (2)" I cursed under my breath. "John! We're here!" I shout to him. I hear the stomping of him coming up the steps. "Oh ok I'm coming!" he yelled. Just then on a not so perfect timing Spader stormed out of the room right in to John yelling, "No way in Hell am I sleeping in the same room as THAT psychotic FANGIRL! …uh…….hi…?" "Mina! What are you doing with a BOY in your room?" yelled John. Mina was dragged out with Spader.
"Who are you!" asked the two in unison. "Vo Spader!" answered Spader. "Dara's BIG BROTHER John and I like to think of Mina as a sister too" John answered picking Spader up by his shirt tags. "Oh SHIT!" yelled a frantic Mina as she pounded on his shirt. Any one could pick my brother out of a crowd.
He had my red-black eyes and shiny black hair, which was down to his shoulders. He had on a red polo, tan cargo slacks, and for his boots black Lassen Christopher's, he was also muscular, not overly, but still…..meep(3).
JOHN POV
'What did this creep think he was doing with little Mina!' I wondered 'He called her a Fangirl? I'm confused' As if to add to my confusion enough two guys appeared; one seemed to be missing a hand…… "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE!" I yelled as the man in my grip gasped for air.
I let him go and shouted again. I saw my sister start to tear up," uh…oh……no……no…don't cry Dara." She started whimpering. "No……no…….stop…….stop."
