Sorry for the wait, guys! This chapter kicks the action up, and I hope you all like it! :) Updates may take a little longer and be shorter now because I'm headed back for my second semester of college! (If you can guess my two majors I have a reward for you next chapter!)

If you review though, I promise I'll update ASAP though! It lets me know you guys are reading :D


Amanda waited with Finn at the rear, ready to go at the sound of Philby's signal. The two were still under the shadow of the tepee. "Finn, you seem distracted," Amanda observed.

"What? No," Finn replied. But he knew she was right. His mom's news had thrown him off balance for the entire night.

"Yes, you are," Amanda declared. "You didn't analyze all our options for getting to Hollywood Studios or jump in right away."

"I trust Philby. Like I said."

Finn could practically hear Amanda roll her eyes. "Finn," she said sternly, "What is it?" Finn kept his mouth shut. "Don't make me have to loosen those lips for you."

"What?" Finn asked. The mere mention of lips had him on edge. All he could think of was his kiss with Amanda.

"I have ways of making you talk," Amanda threatened lightly. Looking outside, she saw a streetlamp flicker on and off. The signal. "Let's get moving."

Amanda and Finn quietly slipped out of the shadow of the tepee. Their bodies glowed, an eerie electric light emanating from them. Finn reached back and took a hold of Amanda's hand, feeling the electric energy pulsating between them. They navigated their way through the tepees and across the Advertureland bridge to the main square. The two slipped behind trees and garbage cans, ducking and taking their time. Reaching the statue of Walt Disney and Mickey, the two heard footsteps. They were out in the open with nowhere to hide. "What do we do?" hissed Amanda.

"Gimme a sec," Finn replied, concentrating. He pushed Amanda into a squat at the base of the statue. He went up on his knees to peer between Mickey's legs.

He saw them: two pirates patrolling Main Street USA. Looking terribly out of place, one had an ugly eyepatch and wore a tattered green shirt and black trousers. The other had a peg leg and wore a clean red and white striped shirt. They were headed in their direction. "Okay, two pirates, right on the street," Finn whispered to Amanda. "I don't know if they'll circle around here, but we can't risk running until we know they can't see us."

Amanda nodded, "Maybe they'll turn around?" she asked hopefully. Finn shrugged and rose to his knees again. The pirates had stopped and were looking around.

"Oy," one of them called to the other, "Do you know why we're even here? Those rascals haven't been here in weeks."

"Then we're due for an attack, knucklehead," the peg legged pirate replied, bonking his friend on the head. "Plus, the boss said to patrol the street, so that's what we're doing!"

"Wish he'd shoulder some of the guardwork," eyepatch replied. Then he turned around and opened his arms out. "See? Ain't nothing here!"

"Go!" Finn hissed, pushing Amanda forward. They ran like hell to Fantasyland.
