Jewel's POV

So there we were, Lexi, Wadi, Zak, Francis, Ulraj, Telise, KD, and Me. All sitting in an airship my parents had provided us with, well at least without them knowing of course! I wasn't suppose to have this till i was 16, but hey at least i could drive right! Zak and Francis were fighting over something stupid as usual, Ulraj bugged me a lot to let him drive ever since i brought it up so now here i am sitting in the co-driver seat giving the directions to the carnival, and Wadi was bored out of her mind so she was bugging Lexi by asking questions like 'When do you think we are going to be there?' 'You want to take a quiz?' 'Do you like KD?' those type of questions. KD on the other hand was sleeping. Meanwhile Ulraj was getting a bit moody because i didn't let him talk to Telise while he was driving,

"Ok Ulraj we need to take a right after we pass this mountain and then we should be able to get there in about 30 minutes." Everybody groaned except for KD who just woke up by the way!

"Wha... what's the matter?" He took a huge yawn then waited for an answer,

"We have to wait 30 minutes till we get to the carnival! Which stinks cause i can't take another moment being near Mr. Annoying over here!" Zak said.

"Well sorry! I didn't notice that we were going to be stuck here a long time either!" Francis remarked as Zak glared at him.

"Guys can't you at least shut up for one minute while we are in here! Gosh i have headache now!" Lexi complained. I groaned myself.

"You know it is kinda fun for me cause i am driving!" Ulraj was sitting there in the driver's seat smirking.

"Ulraj shut up and drive! You been bragging the whole way, ok guys i know it stinks but it will pay off at the carnival ok! Besides there is a roller coaster!" Everybody pretty much lighten up because i said i wouldn't talk about the carnival.

"Ya and besides, i am going to go on the Ferris wheel with Lexi!" Zak joined in the conversation.

"Oh ya me and Wadi is doing that too!" I scowled.

"I do not get the whole Ferris wheel ride with a boy!? i mean really all you are doing is sitting there with him and watching the fireworks?" Wadi laughed a bit.

"We're here!" Telise said. She has pretty much been quiet the whole time, and she didn't even want to talk to Francis at all. I mean he is pretty fun to talk too really. She even told me that she hates his guts. Francis on the other hand thinks the same way too so there is no way they are going to be alone with each other ever. Telise is pretty much all over me for liking him even one bit and is by my side like every second.

"Yes we are here! Sweet, Sweet land! I missed you!" Zak and Lexi was cheering that they were out of the airship finally and were actually on the ground hugging it.

Out of POV

All the kids rushed out.

"Wait, this isn't going to work out."

"What why?" Telise asked Lexi.

"Well, Ulraj is a fish," she said.

"Look me in the eyes and tell me seeing a fish person walking around a fairground isn't weird."

"This fair also happens to have the world's largest freak fair," Jewel intervened.

Jewel's POV

"I am not a Freak!" Ulraj said after hearing the conversation!

"I am king if Kumari Kandam. And besides, if anyone asks me why i look like a fish i could answer myself. Now can we get going! I want to go on the thing you call a roller coaster!" man does Ulraj have any idea how high it goes up and how fast it goes!? Heh, i will let him find out. After i woke up from my daydream everyone was looking at me weird.

"What?" Everyone was still looking at me.

"Did you not just hear yourself laugh like Argost?" What!?

"What do you mean i was just having a evil, yet funny thought." Telise thumped me on the forehead hard and i went a couple inches back with a 'ouch'.

"What was that for!?" I wanted a reason now for why she thumped me!

"For being evil at a wrong moment!"

"That is not a good reason!" What kind of reason is that!

"Is so and you know it!" Telise and me were fighting till we got to the gate.

"Is this a-?"

"Yep, a carnival with everything! Really it is kinda a park for people with special abilities! I brought you guys here because i was invited; it said i could bring as many people as i want! So i kinda asked all of you if you wanted to come and really i didn't feel like going alone!" Telise hugged me.

"Could i have a hug!" Ulraj said with open arms.

"NO, consider yourself rejected!" Telise i think only wanted a girl day today, or at least didn't want Ulraj and Francis to be here.

"Gosh Telise what boy do you like at all!?" She actually answered that,

"Zak as a friend, and my boyfriend Jason." Everyone was in awe.

"Just kidding, Jason is really my first stuffed animal that i loved!" Ulraj nearly Fainted when he heard the word 'boyfriend'.

"Could we get going park closes in 8 hours!" Wadi laughed at my impatience.

"I agree with Jewel, we should get going." Francis said. Wow he actually agreed with me!?

"Fine, let's go!" Lexi said as she ran to the gate as fast as i would if there was a free bag of cotton candy.

Out of POV

Inside the amusement park...

Luckily for Lexi there was cotton candy, but it wasn't free. Oh well!

She was about to take a big bite out of it when Zak snapped a picture. She growled at him. (Remember the picture of her eating cotton candy in ch. 2 of Zak's Next Issue?)

She and KD scarfed it down and then decided they should go on rides.

"I can't wait for the roller coasters!"

"That must've been the 20th time you've said that since we got in."

"Hey! I'm excited. I really want to do a loop!" (Remember the underworld bride?)

"Yeah, yeah whatever."

Telise and Jewel looked at each other.

"You guys can pick a roller coaster first."

"Okay," Zak said.

"I choose that one!" Zak and Lexi said at the same time. They were both pointing to the ship one that carries you up and down faster and faster higher and higher until you get almost upside down.

Jewel's POV

"You sure? I pretty much get dizzy on these rides?" I was always not the type for rides if i didn't feel safe on. They were still fun though.

"Ah yes, this is almost my favorite ride here!" Lexi said.

"Fine but i am going to be at the end!" We got in, Lexi and Zak was a little grouchy about something.

"What is wrong with them?" i asked Wadi who was sitting next to me. She was smirking the whole time we were on.

"You know, the end goes the highest right?" I just drew a blank. I haven't thought of that...

"Yes the ride is starting!" There was a huge clank and the ride started up. To tell the truth i wasn't really that happy. These type of rides use to scare me when i am about almost upside down. Scratch that, they do scare me a bit. I can handle roller coasters but not the Viking ship rides. After the ride it was Telise' turn to pick.

"I pick, how about the super slide or... the roller coaster, no wait..." Zak got impatient.

"Pick a ride already!" She just shrugged.

"Fine, i pick the underwater roller coaster then!" Everyone looked at me since i brought up the amusement park and i didn't say anything about an underwater roller coaster.

"What!?" I didn't like being stared at by a group of people it gave me a weird feeling.

"You know what! You didn't say anything about there being a lot more then 1 roller coaster!" I shrugged myself then said,

"I said that i won't talk about the amusement park in the airship remember!?" They all sighed.

"Besides after this ride is lunch, then Francis will pick a ride." Ulraj groaned.

"What i got you the ride so i can pick who goes next can i?"

"No." Lexi said plainly.

"Oh well let's get going." We started heading down to a cave like entrance. It had fake cobwebs, spiders that looked very real, and live rats somehow.

All of a sudden there was evil laughter and Zak Monday appeared.

"Hey suckers! Ready to feel pain?" Zak and then Zak M. took a punch in the face.

"Wow Zak. Violence is not a good attitude around kids under 5 you know!?" Wadi then thumped me, that made Telise thump Wadi, and Lexi decided to join in on the thump fight to and thump all of us. It finally stopped when i yelled at everyone to stop.

"Zak Monday is here i really would want him to hurt ok!?" Zak was still fighting Zak M. and punches were flying, high kicks in the air, who knows who would win this fight.

OOPOV

Apparently neither of them would win, because almost immediately after they started fighting a bulky guard picked them up by the collar.

"Please leave the line if you are going to fight."

Zak walked away followed by his friends and Francis, but Zak Monday kicked the guard's shin and took off."

"Let's visit the freak fair," Lexi said.

"But, Zak Mon-"

"He's the guard's problem."

Moments later...

"THIS IS TERRIBLE!!" Zak and Lexi shouted.

They were going mad at all the caged tortured cryptids.

"We have to let them go!"

Jewel's POV

"Uh wouldn't there be a stampede if we let them go?" Telise always being the one to worry. Unfortunately, Lexi and Zak ignored her and went on to opening the cages.

"Great what else could go wrong!" I yelled. Sometimes they just give me a headache!

"People dying, fork in the throat, the Ferris wheel being broke without anyone of us having the chance to go on it?" I gave Telise the 'stare'.

"How uncomfortable can you get? I am already annoyed with the whole 'letting the cryptids go'!" Lexi then slapped us both in the face.

"OW! Fine we'll shut up and go help you! Sheesh..." Lexi then grinned. I on the other and was walking away rubbing my face.

OOPOV

About 10 minutes later all the cryptids were lose and running free, but then the guard from before came charging in.

And about 11 minutes later they had been kicked out.

"Jerk!" Lexi shouted.

"If i ever see that guard again i swear i will-" She was going to finish when Telise cut-in.

"Rip off his head?" She nodded in response.

"I was thinking more eat him or feed him to a tiger, but oh well."

The screams came from inside the fair.

"No doubt Zak M. is causing all the screaming."

"Yeah, or the cryptids we just let loose," Telise said eyeing Zak and Lexi.

"How are we gonna get back in?"

Jewel's POV

"Rampage?" everyone looked at me weird.

"That might just work." now everyone looked at Zak weird.

"Really, guys come on! You have to admit we got nothing to lose right now right!?" i kept on trying to convince tem, it only took 5 minutes though.

OOPOV

"So what should I turn into?"

"A lion!" Wadi said.

Lexi turned into one of the most majestic lions they had all seen then roared, which temporarily stopped the screams.

"Wow." then everyone screamed cause there was a lion!

"Great, just when things couldn't get any worse!" Zak Monday then appeared.

"I just had to open my mouth!" Telise said while face palming herself.

"Zak Monday! Why do you do this?" Zak asked.

"Because you don't!"

Lexi pounced on him and seemed to freeze, he kicked her off and she collapsed. Right over her left shoulder blade was a dart

"Nobody Move!" shouted the terrified animal officer. The people were quieted.

Jewel's POV

"But our friend is hu-!" The animal officer cut her off with,

"I said nobody move!" Telise then whispered in my ear since I was closest

"Dude got some issues." i then tried to hold back my laugh but it didn't work a high squeak escaped.

"What was that!?" i answered quickly,

"Uh nothing, must have been a mouse!" the officer then got wide-eyed for a second and looked around franticly for something.

Lexi woke up about a minute later. The man was afraid of mice? Well then…

Jewel's POV

Lexi understood his behavior when he looked around. She then turned into a mouse and squeaked when she got to his shoe. He then pretty much screamed like a little girl in front of everyone. Luckily for us, his tranquilizer gun went off and shot Zak Monday in the shoulder.

"Oh come on!" he then fell to the floor.

"That was interesting!" Telise said. I scowled at her, but she only rolled her eyes.

"If it only been you!" She scowled at me back.

"Zak what about the Ferris wheel?" Wadi asked.

"Oh ya, it is getting late. Wadi and me kinda wanted to go on the Ferris wheel together. Along with Lexi and KD. Where is he anyway?" KD finally appeared. Lexi then walked up to him and asked.

"Where were you!?" he smirked and said,

"Well wasn't really my fault that i went and slept on the park bench after the long drive." She sighed but they hugged each other.

"We got to go on the Ferris wheel remember!?" Lexi then pulled KD, Zak, Wadi, Telise, and Ulraj by the shirts into the line for the Ferris wheel. Telise then stopped everyone.

"Don't you want to come?" I shrugged.

"I don't know, not really going on with anyone, i will just stay with Francis for a while i guess." She stared awhile then finally gave up.

"Fine, see you later!" I then turned to go sit on the park bench.

"So Francis...What is up with the attitude?" He looked me in the eyes but still didn't say a word. I waited; we seemed to be having a staring contest till i broke the silence,

"You know you could tell me right?" He looked away.

"Aren't you going to talk at least." He then (finally) said something,

"Why are you so nice!?" I looked at him confusingly,

"What do you mean by why am i nice. This is pretty much who i am, until one of my friends get hurt then i turn into rip-you-to-shreds mode." I tried to make him laugh but he just was depressing.

"Ok That Is It Tell me what is biting you!?" We then started an argument.

"I Can't!"

"Why Not!"

"Because!"

"Because Why!"

"I am not going to this level!"

"Well I AM!" I stopped and met his grudge. I am surprised no one was staring...

"Francis I just Care about your feelings what is so bad about that!?" He just shook his head.

"Oh you don't know half of it. Your naive, you never think before you act, you're mostly for improvising, and- "I cut him off

"Ok That Is it, Francis i care about you and if you can't take that then you will lose it! First off you never really think about others anyway so this might be weird for you but you must face the facts! You know you can't live a full life when people around you hate you! I hate it when people hate me. It makes me feel like an outsider, and sorry but i don't want you to feel like that!" With that i left him shock and sitting on the bench alone, i needed to take a walk. I'll find them later.

OOPOV

After they left the Ferris wheel ride they all got off nice and happy only to see two all to familiar figures, Zak's parents.

Before Jewel could get far Drew and Doc stepped in front of her.

"Hello, Jewel."

Somewhere else...

"Man I can't believe the wheel was missing on the Ferris wheel, I guess that's what caused all the screaming, and uh-oh..."

"What?"

"Hi mom... hi dad," Zak said.

Jewel's POV

"Hi Zak, didn't see you this morning?" Drew said with a fake smile. Doc was behind me.

"Uh i see you found Jewel! Where were you jewel!?" He said trying to get out of trouble.

"I mean really i told you we couldn't go." I gave him a look of disbelief.

"What do you mean, you told me that it was fine with your parents!" Zak glared at me.

"Ok that is it, explain!" Drew said looking at Zak.

"Well, we were bored so I told them it was okay with you, so ummm.... we went to the fair and ran into Zak Monday."

"Uh-huh, so tell me how that went!? Wait did you say Zak Monday? Why wasn't he in the anti-world?"

5 minutes later...

"And that is how it went." he finally finished!

"Could we get grounded so i can get on with my life?" Telise complained.

OOPOV

Telise, jewel, Lexi Zak and KD sat on the couch in silence.

"Thanks for totally bailing on us KD."

"Oh please, you didn't know I was gone."

"Hey well at least it wasn't Argost!"

THE END!
