Next day the children were going on a field trip to the amusement park. In Emily's van Magenta sat next to her brother.
"So, what happened at home?" Magenta questioned.
"They gave us separate bedrooms which is a blessing, but I'm afraid he'd leave me here or someday make me his servant because after all he is the Prince," Riff Raff told her.
"He wouldn't do that to you because you two have been friends since he was born."
"True, yet he can dispose of his friends whenever he chooses for he may act or dress like a girl, but he is truly a boy."
I'm Just A Boy
Riff Raff:
I'm just a boy
Who wishes to go home
I may have a dim future ahead of me
So, sister, dear stay by my side
Because I'm just a boy
With an ego that never gets bruised
But I'd never tell anyone that
Because I'm misunderstood by all
(in Claudia's van)
Frank:
I'm just a boy
With no morals
I don't care about that
Because I like who I am
Because I'm just a boy
That doesn't answer to anyone
Unless you're my sweet mother
Yet I'm misunderstood by all
(Emily's van)
Eddie:
I'm just a boy
Who likes to bully people around
I learned from my dad
That you always gotta be tough
Because I'm just a boy
Who never learned to cry
Never got in touch with my girlie side
And I'm misunderstood by all
(Claudia's van)
Brad:
I'm just a boy
Who does what his mother says
Which makes me seem like a loser
And friendless most of the time
Because I'm just a boy
Who has a heart of gold
Why doesn't anyone see that
For I'm misunderstood by all
(Emily's van)
Rocky:
I'm just a boy
Who was created
I may not have too much logic
But I'm learning day by day
Because I'm just a boy
Who's gaining muscles
So someday I can be strong and smart
But I'll always be misunderstood by all
(Claudia's van)
Ralph:
I'm just a boy
All American good apple
I'd never do anything wrong
That was against the law
Because I'm just a boy
Who has big dreams of becoming famous
And hoping to get out of this hick town
But I'm misunderstood by all
All(boys):
Because I'm just a boy
A boy you see anywhere
No one ever tries to understand me
That's why I'm misunderstood by all
Misunderstood by all
Misunderstood by all
"You don't understand, Magenta, he is jealous of me and you," Riff Raff said.
"Why would he be jealous?"
"He is jealous that we have a stronger bond than you have with him."
"You are my brother, but I love all of you equally."
"He's also jealous that he can't control us like how he can with Rocky."
"Frank can't control Rocky because he does whatever he wants."
"To a certain degree because there are times that Rocky does what Frank says. In a way Rocky is Frank's servant."
"We're here, kids," Emily announced.
Claudia and Emily took them into the amusement park where they saw all the huge roller coasters, and other adult rides they couldn't go on as they were directed to Kiddie Land. Magenta, Riff Raff, Columbia, and Eddie got in line for the Kiddie roller coaster.
"Hey, I've got an idea," Eddie said.
"What is it?" Columbia wondered.
"We sneak away and get on the bigger rides."
"They look a lot more interesting than these rides, but I'm not so sure," Magenta replied.
"Oh, come on, it'll be fun."
"Oh, all right."
They got out of line and exited Kiddie Land looking for the tallest roller coaster they could ride which happened to be The Millennium.
"Now this is a ride," Eddie commented.
"How are we supposed to get on?" Riff Raff inquired.
"Yeah, we're not tall enough," Magenta pointed out.
"Well, if you and Columbia start crying we can get past this crowd," Eddie said.
They started crying for their mother as Riff Raff and Eddie led them through the crowd until they got to the front of the line. The roller coaster came to a halt as many people got off and the children's adrenaline started pumping. Riff Raff and Magenta got in the front seat as Columbia and Eddie sat behind them waiting excitedly for the ride to begin. The ride started as they hung onto the bar that protected them and it slowly crept up a steep hill.
"We're going to die!" Magenta told her brother in fright.
"No, we're not. We're going to reach the top of this hill and go down it really fast," Riff Raff explained.
"How do you know?"
"I've read about these Earthling constructions in my textbooks."
"Will you hold my hand?"
He took her hand and held it just as they reached the top of the hill. Magenta gazed down and screamed just as the roller coaster went flying down the hill. Behind them Riff Raff could hear Columbia screaming and Eddie laughing. He glanced over at his sister who was still screaming and he started to laugh at her. Her expression of horror made him laugh because he had never seen her so frightened in his life. After two minutes of small hills, twists, and turns the ride ended which they all got off giggling.
"That was fun even though I was scared," Magenta commented.
They walked away from the ride and were heading for another one when Claudia caught sight of them.
"We've been searching all over for you," Claudia told them sternly.
She grabbed Eddie by the arm dragging him to Kiddie Land as the other kids followed.
"Emily, I found them and we were right that Eddie was the ringleader."
"Oh, thank heavens," Emily said relieved.
They punished Eddie by leaving him in a daycare center in the amusement park and called his parents to pick him up. The other three were never out of the two women's sight as the other kids crowded around wondering what it was like to ride an adult ride.
"It was fun," Riff Raff said.
"But scary," Columbia added.
"I thought I was going to die," Magenta told them.
Then they all got in line for the Ferris wheel just for kids. Columbia and Riff Raff sat together while, Janet and Rocky sat with each other as well as Betty and Ralph. Magenta and Frank sat together while Brad rode by himself.
"How much longer before they find us?" Magenta wondered.
"I don't know, but soon hopefully, and then things can go back to normal," Frank reassured her.
"We will never be the same. Maybe we're better off here if they cannot find us."
"Please, tell me you're not considering staying here like Rocky."
"No, but if we're not found it is best that we live out our lives here."
"We will be found and if not I will find a way back home. Please, say you'll go with me."
"Oh, Frances, life without you, my brother, and Rocky would be unbearable. I will go where you lead."
Grabbing his finger in affection they smiled. Riff Raff and Columbia were discussing Eddie and Magenta.
"But isn't that kind of love incest?" Columbia questioned.
"No, because my mother died during childbirth with me, and my father married Magenta's mom, Raven, but soon after he was sent to war where he died. I thought Raven and Onyx were my biological parents, but Queen Lavia revealed the truth to me after Raven died. She is not my sister by blood, but by marriage," Riff Raff explained.
"Does she know the truth?"
"No, and she doesn't suspect how deep that love goes."
"I understand. I love Eddie and he's finally taken interest, but I think he has a crush on Magenta."
"I've noticed that too and maybe there's a way to discourage him."
"Do you have a plan?"
"Not yet, but I'll think of something."
Rocky and Janet were enjoying their ride, discussing cartoons when she blurted out, "Are you an alien?"
"Why do you ask?" Rocky wondered.
She told him that she had eavesdropped on him the day he told her to leave when the others showed up.
"Yes, we are from a different planet and galaxy."
"What are you doing here and are you green under that disguise?"
"Green?"
"Aren't you wearing a disguise?"
"No, this is what I look like."
She pinched him and tried to pull his skin when he hollered in pain.
"Had to make sure."
"Whatever you say. The only reason we're here is that Frank played with a machine trying to create a bodyguard for us because our enemies, the Kellkins, had entered the castle. He pushed too many buttons and the machine went haywire, sending laser beams at us, transporting us here. We are waiting for someone to rescue us, but Frank wants us to find a way to teleport home."
"I feel sorry for all of you, is there anything I can do?"
"Yes, just don't tell anyone or let on that you know about us."
"Okay."
The ride ended as the group of children rode all the rides in Kiddie Land and soon returned home.
