Life Is Like A Fairytale-Chapter 8
Disclaimer: I do not own anything except the thought of the story.
When they had finished the Star Wars ride the group moved on to the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Movie Set". Even though it was a play ground for little kids it didn't stop Kagome from sliding down Kodak film canister, and Sango capturing every moment of it on camera. As they were walking out the exit, Kagome spotted a life size Tonka Truck with a Scrabble piece sticking out the back.
"Oh InuYasha come on come take a picture with me sitting on the truck, my mom loves Scrabble, please?" she whined, but dragging him none the less over towards the truck.
"Fine…"
"Now remember to smile!" she said as Sango snapped the picture.
"I'm going to be seeing spots for awhile." Mumbled InuYasha as Kagome struck a pose.
The next ride the girls stumbled upon was The Magic of Disney Animation, where Sango, Miroku, InuYasha, and Kagome took a set in the audience. When they first sat down a screen in front of them came on and Mushu, the red guardian dragon from Mulan, started to explain how Disney studios make the animated movies.
As they watched the movie one of the animators explained how Mushu came to be. Back when Disney was first creating the story line for Mulan there were original two dragons that were going to help Mulan throughout the story. They were going to be called Ying and Yang, one red and one blue, but it only served to make the story line confusing so the creators down sized it to only one dragon and used Eddy Murphy for the voice actor.
Later when the girls were walking back out of the building, Sango couldn't believe that there was suppose to be two dragons.
"I mean look at how well the movie turned out."
"Well that just goes to show that Disney managed to add yet another master piece to their collection really." Said Miroku as a reply.
"One Man's dream" What is that ride?" asked Kagome as she read the map over InuYasha's shoulder.
"That's where they have all the original models for the buildings and other place settings Disney used in all of his movies." Miroku replied as they walked in through the door.
"Oh look it's one of the actual carousal horses from Mary Poppins!" exclaimed Sango as she pressed her face up against the window casing.
"Hey Sango over here it's a little model of Sleeping Beauty's castle." Said Kagome as she examined the tiny building.
"Hey here's Donald's Boat! You know the one that we were in over at Magic Kingdom."
"This is so cool." Kagome said as she bent over to examine the detail.
"How about "The Great Movie Ride" next?" asked Miroku as he steered the group over towards the entrance.
"What is it about?" asked Kagome.
"It's like a museum turned into a ride, everything that was popular with the world back when Disney was first writing and creating his story lines." InuYasha said as he squinted at the map to see the times for the ride in question.
"Hey gotta love history." Sango said as they were ushered into a moving fifty's style car.
As the car came around a bend their tour guide explained all about the old western movies that were a huge hit, and making two men very huge stars, but even before the guide could say the names of the actors Sango blurted them out.
"Clint Eastwood and John Wayne! I use to watch them all the time with my father before he died."
"Uh…yes! Correct young lady they are exactly the two having a show down right now to our left." Said the guide as he wiped the sweat off his brow.
"So your father has passed on?" Miroku asked hesitantly after they we're on they over to the "Beauty and the Beast" show. Miroku couldn't stop thinking about it the whole time while they were on the ride.
"Ah, yes he passed away a few years ago when I was thirteen." Sango said in a small voice so that up ahead of them Kagome and InuYasha wouldn't hear their conversation.
"Did you want to talk about it?" Miroku asked while taking a step closer towards her.
"Not really, but thank you for caring enough to ask Miroku." Sango said as she closed her eyes.
"No problem." He said as he slid his arm around her shoulders, and unknown to even Sango her self, she rested her head against his shoulder.
"Hey guys look at the sign it's all lit up." Kagome said as she glanced back at Sango and Miroku only to find them in each other's embrace. "Eh…"
"Ha not going to let Miroku live this one down." InuYasha said with a smirk when he looked back to see what caught Kagome's attention.
"Oh don't tease them its cute!" Kagome said as she continued on their path over towards the Beauty and the Beast show. But inside her head Kagome was thinking something totally different, "And she has the nerve to give me a warning! Look at her and Miroku, the hypocrite, but they are still cute together."
When the show started up it was to Belle walking on stage and singing the first number of the show, the one where she is walking into the town. When the show reached the ball room scene Kagome swooned the whole time, "Awww that has got to be the cutest moment of any Disney story that I have even heard of." Kagome said as her eyes followed Belle and Beast dance around the stage.
InuYasha, who was sitting next to her, let his imagination run wild as he imagined himself twirling Kagome around on the stage. Just the thought of Kagome all dressed up in Belle's beautiful dress caused enough of a distraction for InuYasha that he didn't even realize when the performance had ended. Only when Kagome pulled gently on his hair did he snap out of his dreams, Kagome could only laugh at the dazed look on his face.
After the show the gang headed over towards the "Tower of Terror" ride, seeing as how the line up for the "Rock 'n' Roller Coaster" was packed. By this point the sun was starting to set and it cast an orange glow across the entire park.
"Sweet! The Tower of Terror, this is one of the most famous rides that Disney has." Kagome said as the gang was standing in the makeshift hotel lobby waiting for their turn on the ride.
"It says on the map here that the ride is programmed to drop you from thirteen stories at random." Read Sango.
"Oh my goodness! This is so exciting; I can't wait to get on." Kagome said as she practically vibrated with excitement.
When it came their turn to get on, Kagome noticed that it really was an elevator that they were sitting in, except instead of standing you were seated with only a waist seat belt to keep you in place.
As the ride started up they slowly started to rise, around the sixth floor the ride stopped and you looked out on the darken floor ahead of them. Only to see a man walking towards them, he was wearing one of the hotel uniforms but his grin did not reach his eyes.
"Well, well what have we here? A couple of tourists, or some new fresh meat?" he said as he smiled wider showing his crooked yellowing teeth. And before Kagome knew what was happening they were plummeting straight down to the ground, just as she started to get over her shock from the first dive Kagome noticed that they were rising back up again. She tried to look around but everything was too dark, then out of no where a voice came out from a speaker right behind Kagome's shoulder.
"So still amongst the living I see? Well not for much longer…"the voice trailed off laughing hysterically.
Besides jumping a mile high and hearing InuYasha chuckle, Kagome had little time to think of anything else then when would the next drop happen.
They were randomly dropped a few more times without a warning and Kagome was just nicely thinking that she might end up having a heart attack before the ride finished. But just as she finished the thought the ride rose up to the top and stopped in front of an open window.
"Wow look at that!" said Kagome as she looked out the window. She could see the entire park, all the rides and attractions, everything bathe in the glow of the sunset. Kagome turned her head to see what Sango expression was when she locked eyes with InuYasha.
Blushing five different shades of red Kagome just turned her head back out towards the window when they were dropped the whole thirteen stories lifting her clean off her seat as they fell, and she screamed the whole way down.
"My ears will be ringing until next week for sure." InuYasha said as he rubbed his abused ears.
The group was standing in the Tower of Terror gift shop; Kagome and Sango were watching a screen where pictures of different groups were being shown. Unknown to the girls the picture was taken while they were up at the top of tower overlooking the park. When their picture came up it showed InuYasha and Kagome looking at each other and Sango and Miroku were holding hands.
"I have to buy that picture it's so cute!" Kagome said as she walked over towards the cash counter.
After Kagome bought her picture the group headed over towards the fast moving line up for the Rock' n' Roller Coaster.
"Hey that's really creative." Sango commented on the outside of the ride. On the front of the building was an enormous red electric guitar, while the handle wound its way to the front of the entrance where you first walked in. In no time at all the line up moved and before they knew it they were let in to the first half of the ride.
Once at least twenty people were in the tiny room a video started up making it look like you were guests coming to visit the band Aerosmith while they were in a recording room. Upon seeing you the band members then remember that they have a concert in ten minutes time that they have to get to. They invite you along and Kagome and the gang were ushered onto the next room where the roller coaster was located. The seats on the coaster were meant for two people side bye side, so Kagome and InuYasha took the two front ones while Sango and Miroku sat right behind them. As soon as all the seats were filled up the coaster was moved up to the starting point that was when they pulled down the shoulder straps to secure that no one fell out.
Excitement flooded through Kagome as the speakers came alive right beside their heads. It was Steven Tyler, the main vocalist from Aerosmith, he was telling them to hold on tight and have a blast. Just as Kagome looked ahead she saw a set of street lights, three red lights then a green. As the lights counted down so did Steven Tyler, when it hit the green he yelled right in Kagome's ear and the roller coaster took off with a blast so fierce that she was thrown back into her seat, practically giving her a concussion.
Right off the bat, the coaster went in two complete circles, taking them upside down twice. During the whole ride all the popular songs that Aerosmith sang was played in their ears. When the ride was over they came out into the gift shop, and Kagome went straight over to the penny crushing machine. You stick in a quarter and a penny and press the mold you want and the penny gets squished with the imprint. Kagome got one that said Rock' n' Rollercoaster, by now she was starting to collect quite a collection of the crushed pennies.
"Okay guys it's about time for the "Fantasmic!" show to start and if we want good seats we better go now." Said Miroku as he checked his watch.
"Venture into the imagination of Sorcerer Mickey as he and his friends confront notorious Disney villains in this action-packed battle of good versus evil at The Hollywood Hills Amphitheater." Kagome read from the map as they took their seats in the audience. "Sounds really interesting, so this show takes place of fireworks for the night?"
"Yup don't want to over do things and waist money when it's not needed." Said InuYasha as he munched on some of Kagome's popcorn. "It also has a spectacular show of lasers, lights, dancing fountains and dazzling special effects."
"How can you have dancing fountains?" asked Kagome with a puzzled look on her face.
"You'll see it's pretty cool how they do it."
The show started with Mickey coming out on stage and addressing the crowd. Then the atmosphere shifted and the villain from Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent came out from behind Mickey and captured him. While Mickey was being taken away all the villains from the other Disney movies came out to rejoice. That's when the fountains down front sprang into action and fanned out to form a wall, where an animated part came on showing all the villains dropping everything that they were doing and coming to Maleficent's side, the fountains turned into a screen so that you could watch the clip.
When the fountains turned off all the villains were on the stage with Maleficent laughing.
Then on the other part of the stage you saw a commotion happening where all the good guys from the Disney movies start to rally together to come and save Mickey.
And again the fountains sprang up and the animated short showed how the good guys broke into the castle where Maleficent was holding Mickey. Then all heck broke lose as each of the good guys broke off to battle their own respective villain, and of course saving the day. When it was shown that Mickey was safe again fireworks blasted off from all directions and lit up the sky, making the perfect ending for the show.
After the show the gang caught the next bus back to the girl's hotel and said their good bye's until the next day.
