Oh ho ho! Chapter 2! Yeah... I got all excited when I FINALLY figured out how to post on this site. W00t! And Red, just so we're clear, I hate the title too but, hey. It's the best I got. Well... hither we go...

Brodi was craning his neck to see over the bushes. "I sense someone is near." Mac looked where Brodi was looking.

"I see nothin'. You're trippin', man." Mac continued to walk back to the hotel. Brodi sighed and followed Mac.

Elise poked her head out from the bush. "That was close." Her hand was still on Kaori's mouth.

"Edl..is..an!" Kaori screamed. Elise looked over and took her hand off Kaori's mouth.

"Sorry!"

"It's OK. Let's head back to the hotel. I want to go in the pool! Weeee!" And with that, Kaori sprinted off in the wrong direction.

"Kaori! Wrong way!" Elise shouted. Kaori stopped and turned around.

"I knew that.." She sprinted back to where Elise was. "How about I walk?"

"Good idea," Elise laughed.

Mac and Brodi were almost to the hotel when Mac noticed a liquor store along the way. "Hey, I'm gunna go see if I can get us a couple of beers."

"Mac!" Brodi scolded. "You're not 21 yet."

"Tsh, like they care. Be right back. You want somethin'?"

"I'm good, thanks.." Brodi walked back to the hotel alone.

"Whatever." Mac walked into the liquor store and picked out some Heineken. He walked up to the man behind the counter. The man looked at him suspiciously.

"Drivers license, please," he said.

Mac thought of a way he could fool this guy. "Uhh.. why do I need a drivers license here if I can't drink and drive anyway?"

The man thought for a moment. "Good point. But, it's procedure. Driver's license, please."

Mac sighed and took out his driver's license. He handed it to the man.

The man swiped it through a machine. He smiled. "Sorry, kid. You got a few years before you can have this stuff."

"Aw, come on, man! I'll pay ya 10 bucks extra."

"Sorry, sir."

"15."

"Sorry, sir."

"25."

"Sorry, sir."

"30!"

"Sorry, sir."

"How much do I have to pay to get this?"

"Sorry, sir. Rules are rules."

"Dats bull, man."

"Take it up with the police."

Mac stared at him. The man looked somewhat gullible. "Alright.. can I have my driver's license back?" The man handed it back. Mac looked past the man. "Whoa.. Cool!"

The man turned around. Mac grabbed the beer and ran out the door. The man turned back. "What are you ta- STOP! THIEF!"

Mac turned the corner and went down an alley. Moby, JP, Zoe, and Luther were all smoking. Moby noticed him first. "Oi! What've we got here, mates?"

Mac stopped and caught his breath. "Can you guys hide me? I'll give you some beer."

"What you hidin' from, mate?"

"Uhh..." Mac looked around. He wasn't going to be able to lie to these guys. "Cops."

Moby went wide-eyed. Then he smiled. "Mac's first run with the cops, eh? Well, I dunno. Stealing beer

is worth a good stay in the pen overnight. Plus, that's not gunna look good in front of your little girlfriend."

"Please! I'll do anything!"

"Anything, eh? JP, what do you think we need?"

JP thought for a moment. "Incitons-l'à jeter la concurrence!" Moby stared at him.

"Zoe? Got any idea what the bloody hell that means?"

"It means we should make him throw the competition. Not a bad idea if I say so myself."

Luther looked offended. "We don't need him to throw the competition! We're gunna beat him anyway!"

Zoe turned on him. "But wouldn't you feel a little better if you KNEW he was gunna lose?" Luther grunted.

Mac was tired of all this talk. "God! You guys never shut up! Screw this, I'm out!"

He ran towards the other side of the alleyway. He peered around the corner. The coast was clear. "HA! No one's here suckas. Nothin' for you then!" He flipped them off and ran as fast as he could back to his hotel.

Moby looked at his friends. "Well, that was a waist of time."

Mac pushed the elevator button over and over. "Come on.. come on..." He could hear sirens approaching.

Kaori was up in her room with Elise. "Eli-san! Are you ready to go or not?"

"Sheesh, hold on! I'm coming!" Elise took her earings out and grabbed her towel. "OK, let's go."

They started to walk over to the elevator when they saw Mac run out. Kaori smiled and waved. "Konichiwa Mac-san!" Mac ran in to what it looked like, his room.

"Hey Kao. Hey Elise," he panted as he ran by. Kaori stared after him.

"Something's wrong."

Elise nodded. "Yeah. But I'm sure he'll tell you tomorrow. Come on. The pool closes in an hour."

"Alright."

Two guys walked by and looked at Elise and Kaori. One whistled. Elise scoffed as they passed.

"What is it about our body parts that make guys go crazy?"

Kaori looked at her unsure. "What do you mean? What body parts?"

"Uhh...The... curves we have. Our.. you know what Kaori? Let's just go down to the pool."

Kaori shrugged and skipped down to the pool.

And there's chapter 2! Yeah. Next chapter will be up when I feel like it. Homework overload.
