It All Started with a Yellowtail Burger
Chapter 2: Who needs a stupid plane?
Eido woke up early excited about his trip. He took a shower, got dressed, and did his hair in record time, much to Hyde's surprise. Then he remembered about the note that he needed in order to get his tickets. Eido let out a short string of curses and started digging through the piles of cloths and burger wrappers littering his room.
"What the? What did you lose now?" Hyde said staring at him with his hands in his pockets.
"I lost the stupid note!" Eido yelled frustrated, as he was about to give up. "Wait! Maybe I packed it on accident!" Eido dug through his suitcase and still couldn't find it.
"You're pathetic Eido." Hyde said smirking. "You put it in the one place you would never lose it."
"And where's that?" Eido asked glairing at his mamodo.
Hyde just walked over to his green book and picked it up off the bed. He opened it to the page that Eido could read and pulled the note out from in between the pages. "The book. You never lose the book." Hyde said chuckling at his partner's ignorance.
"Oh yeah." He said remembering now. "Well! Lets go!" Eido grabbed the book and note and as he walked to the door Hyde sighed. "What is it buddy?" Eido asked.
"Well, aren't you forgetting something?" Hyde said crossing his arms across his chest.
"Lets see…book, note, cloths, swimsuit, you…can't think of any thing." Eido said looking up at the ceiling while holding his chin.
"Wont your parents wonder where you're going to be for the next month?" Hyde asked trying not to sound concerned.
"Awww, is Hyde starting to care?" Eido said mockingly. "Look, their barely ever home anyway. Trust me, they wont even notice I'm gone, they don't even know you're here." Eido said in a less than happy but unfazed tone.
"…" Hyde didn't comment. He just gave his human a stare that if (maybe) if you looked deep (I mean really, really deep) you might find a shred of pity in his cold eyes. Eido doesn't look that deep though, instead he just keeps walking to the door and grads his shoes and skateboard.
"Lets go." They took no more than a step outside before Eido yelled, "JIKIR!" The wind lifted them both off the ground.
"Why do we need a stupid plane anyway, couldn't we just do this?" Hyde asked.
"Maybe…but Hawaii is almost all the way across the Pacific Ocean, I doubt you have that much magic juice." Eido said looking at his partner.
"Good point…for once you may be," Hyde was cut off by a loud BONG, Eido had run right into the side of a billboard, "just when you start thinking, you go and prove you're just as pathetic as ever." Hyde finished sighing and landing next to the billboard where Eido fell out of the sky. "You okay?"
"Yep." Eido said standing up still a little dazed. "Super. JIKIR!" They got back up and flew to the airport to get their tickets.
The manager was waiting for them and recognized them immediately. "Hello boys!"
"Hey! Got the tickets?" Eido said holding up the note.
"Yep! Here you go!" The man said in his extra cheery tone while handing them their plane tickets. Hyde made sure the location was correct and stuffed it in his pocket. "Your plane leaves in a half an hour, I was about to call you if you didn't show up."
"Thanks." Eido said as he shook the managers hand. "Well, we better get going. Come on Hyde."
"Bye kid, enjoy your vacation." Steven said walking out of the airport.
They walked up to the appropriate airplane terminal, handed over their tickets and boarded the plane. After finding their seats and after the plane took off Eido started to relax. "I haven't had breakfast yet." Eido said as his stomach growled. "I wonder if they're handing out food yet?" Eido said thinking aloud.
"Why don't you ask someone?" Hyde suggested reaching into Eido's carry on luggage and pulling out an MP3 player Eido stole a while back.
"Good idea." He looked out into the center isle of the plane and saw a flight attendant. "Hey, she's pretty cute." Eido said smiling.
"Don't even think about it Eido." Hyde said putting the headphones in his ears.
"Hey, excuse me." Eido said politely getting her attention.
"Yes." The flight attendant said looking at his mamodo curiously.
"Yeah, do you have any food, we skipped breakfast." Eido said remaining polite, for now.
"Yes…what would you like?" She said getting nervous.
"A date, I mean a plate," He corrected himself quickly, "of pasta, if that's okay?"
"Yes that's fine." She said leaving.
Eido sighed in relief that she didn't notice, or chose to ignore his screw up. "That was close." He expected a reply from Hyde but he was listening to music and humming one of Megumi's songs, this made him oblivious to Eido's comments. Then a little girl with lines running down her face from her eyes walked up to them. "Hyde!" Eido whispered loudly pulling the headphones out of the mamodo's ears. "Is that a friend of yours?" Eido said nervously.
"Huh…Klemena? What the heck are you doing here?" Hyde asked nervously.
"Ummmm, well the flight attendant is my book-wielder, and, well, normally I'd be here to fight, but since I can't fly…here is not the best place." The little girl said passively. "But when we land, I want you to burn my book…my partner is using me more than I want her too…"
"You were always a pacifist…so you're one of the split personality mamodos then." Hyde said confidently. "I'll make it look like I am an attacker instead of you. Your partner could probably care less about who's king so unless I attack nothing will get done."
"Yes, Hyde…thanks I knew you were strong enough to help!" She then walked away smiling.
