Hello! Here's a new chapter. This one is sorta more of a filer one then the last one. Eh. whatever.
"Catch!" Liam yelled as he launched himself out of a tree.
Yogi gasped. His arms shoot out and he caught Liam. They spun in a circle before Yogi set him down. Liam grinned and Yogi gave a relived sigh.
"Ne, ne, Yogi. Good catch." Liam said lazily.
"You could have gotten hurt!" Yogi argued.
"Could have but didn't." Liam said, his eyebrow raised.
Yogi sighed.
Gareki watched all this. Silently cursing the mis-matched eyed boy in his mind.
Liam turned and waved Gareki and Tsukumo over. "Hurry up you two!"
Tsukumo smiled. "Come on." She said. They walked to where Yogi, Liam and Nai stood. The three grinning happily.
"Stop that." Gareki said.
Nai pouted, then smiled when Liam threw an arm around his shoulders. "Aw, it's alright Nai. Gareki's just still upset about this morning."
"You dumped a bucket of ice water on me."
"You slept in!"
"How did i sleep in when i was at the table for breakfast?"
"Then you where late!"
"Late for what?"
"I dunno! Before ostrich moon plate?"
Gareki's eye twitched. He was arguing with a friggin' psychopath! Liam had dumped a hue bucket of ice water on him this morning for no reason at all. He just snuck up behind Gareki and pulled the bucket out of nowhere! He was insane. Liam grinned. Silently and unconsciously confirming Gareki's thoughts.
"Let's go!" Liam said, dragging Tsukumo and Nai behind him. Yogi and Gareki followed.
Gareki glanced at Yogi out the corner of his eye. Yogi was grinning happily.
Doh'n know what is like.
Liam's words from before echoed in his head. Doh'n know what is like for us.
What the hell did that mean?
"Gareki. Gareki?"
Gareki looked at Yogi. "What?"
"The others are getting farther away." Yogi said pointing at the other three. They where further ahead.
Garkei cussed. "Why didn't you say anything?"
"I did! You weren't paying attention." Yogi said, looking slightly hurt and offended.
Gareki looked away and sighed. Yogi was to oblivious of the way he affected him. ""Fine. Lets go." He grabbed Yogi's elbow and hurried after the other three.
"Ack! Gareki wait! Slow down!" Yogi stumbled after him, having been pulled into running so suddenly.
"Hurry up." Gareki replied. Not risking a look at Yogi.
They rushed to where the other three where. Tsukumo and Nai stood. they waved slightly when they saw them. Liam sat on the ground. He smirked when Gareki and Yogi got close.
"What took so long?" He asked. A teasing glint in his bright eyes. "Get distracted?" His eyes went from Gareki to Yogi and settled back on Gareki.
Gareki frowned at him, his cheeks heated. Nai, Yogi and Tsukumo looked confused. Liam simply kept smirking. "Shut up Liam." Gareki growled.
Liam grinned. "So mean Gareki!" He mock whined. Gareki scowled at him.
Liam stood. "Let's go!"
"Where are we going" Tsukumo asked.
Liam grinned at her. "It's a surprise!" He practically sang with his soft scratchy voice. "So hurry up!" He got up and began to walk away.
Tsukumo and Gareki shared a quick glance. Nai and Yogi were grinning at Liam. Liam glanced over his shoulder at them.
"Hurry up!"
They all hurried after the strange eyed boy with the Chesire grin.
Tsukumo frowned when she realized they where getting further and further away from the city. The passing buildings growing fewer and fewer. "Where are we going?" She asked.
"Just wait." Liam replied.
They continued to follow him. Soon they stopped at a locked fence.
Gareki looked at the fence, his face carefully blank. Tsukumo and Yogi looked at Liam confused.
"What are we doing here?" Tsukumo asked. "What is this place?"
Liam grinned and winked. "Why dont y'all have a look and tell me what this place is?"
Gareki opened his mouth to say something. When he saw Nai he stopped. Nai was staring intently threw the fence. "Nai?" Gareki called to the boy softly.
"I hear something." Nai said, his red eyes trained sharply on the other side of the fence.
"Hey! Liam! That illegal!" Gareki and Nai looked over to see Liam and Yogi at the lock. Yogi was trying to pull Liam away and the lock was in Liam's hand. His nails were longer. The tip of one in the tock, twisting around. Then CLICK. The lock feel open and to the ground. Liam smirked and pulled the gate open. "That's trespassing." Yogi tried to warn.
Liam rolled his mis matched eyes. "Oh, hush Yogi. Learn ta live a little."
Yogi frowned, looking a little upset.
Gareki smiled a little. 'Stupid Yogi' He thought fondly. He grabbed Yogi's arm again as he walked by, forcing him to walk with him. They walked in behind Nai and Tsukumo, who followed Liam threw the fence.
Tsukumo gasped. Gareki's eyes widened. "...No way..." Yogi breathed. Nai tilted his head confused and curiously. Liam grinned at them all.
"Welcome to the Karneval. That Karneval with a K not a C." Liam said, hands out stretched towards the run down looking rides. A faris wheel. A couple roller coasters. The tea cup ride. A few stands and tents with signs for food and psychics.
IT was old. Alot of it looked rusted an questionable. It was doubtful if anything would still worked, or if it did, whether it was safe or not.
Why would Liam bring them here?
"Okay. I bet your wondering why i brought you all here, right?" Liam continued, "We~ll I found this place a while back. I contacted a few friends of mine the other day."
"Yesterday?" Gareki asked, interrupting him.
Liam smirked. "Maybe. It's always a good thing to know people."
"Especially people who can get power working in run down circuses and owe you favors, right? Gareki asked again.
A mischievous look came into Liam's bright mis-matched eyes. "Especially so."
"You got the power working? Tsukumo asked, her purple eyes wide.
Liam rolled his bright eyes. "No. I got the potato people to dance the rain ritual and light their hair on fire with cheese. Yes, i got the power running, silly."
"What's this place?" Nai asked curiously.
Liam smiled at the young boy. "It's a circus, Nai. Like the places set up where Yogi and Tsukumo perform."
"What's wrong with it?" The red eyed boy asked, glancing around.
"IT shut down years ago. Not enough people coming my guess is. But a few rides should still good. A coupled of my friends set up a couple of coolers with food for us. I bet if we can clean up the kithcen stuff nice enough, we can make some good circus carnie food."
"I doubt that." Gareki muttered.
Liam frowned at him. "Oh. So negative. You can help me switch the power on." He grabbed Gareki's arm and dragged him with him. They walked to a building off to the side. Gareki followed Liam in. Gareki watched as Liam started flipping switches. Liam glanced at him."Here. You get the last switch."
"Why? You could have easily done everything yourself." Liam shrugged.
"Just thought you'd liek to flip the last switch. The one that would make everyone, Yogi especially, smile."
Gareki looked at him, then flipped the switch.
Nai, Yogi and Tsukumo jumped. All the lights turned on. The Karneval seemed to come to life right before their very eyes. The rides lights started up. Music began to sound threw the whole area.
"Wow."Nai looked around, his red eyes wide and sparkling.
"Amazing."Tsumumo breathed, her purple eyes filed with wonder.
Yogi looked around shocked. He smiled. "Yeah." He whispered.
Gareki and Liam walked up to the three.
"Ready to enjoy the Karneval?" Liam asked. The three turned and nodded excitedly. "Lets go then. The tea cup ride first, all of us. Then we split up." They followed Liam to the ride. They piled into a giant tea cup as Liam started the ride. As the ride started Liam jumped in. Sitting in between Tsukumo and Nai. The tea cup began to spin and Liam gripped the turner in the middle.
"Ready to go faster?" He asked. Nai nodded. Yogi and Tsukumo looked unsure. Gareki smirked.
"Lets."
Nai and Gareki grabbed the turner. The three began to spin the cup faster and faster. Liam and Nai laughed wildly. Gareki was laughing too, though not as wildly. Yogi was grinning, the wind tossing his hair in his eyes. Tsukumo looked a little dizzy. Soon the ride slowed down and came to a stop. Liam and Nai booed childishly. Yogi climbed out the tea cup dizzily. Gareki caught his arm before he could fall.
"Careful." He muttered.
Liam helped Tsukumo and Nai out the tea cup. "Alright. Let's get going." Liam grabbed Nai and Tsukumo's hands. "I call Tsukumo and Nai!" Liam yelled, dragging the two away. Liam looked behind to wink at Gareki. "Have fun!" He called back.
Yogi tilted his head to the side confused. Gareki blushed. 'Stupid brat' He thought angrily.
Yogi looked to Gareki. "What did he mean? How are we gonna get the rides to start?"
Gareki sighed. "Shush. He gave me a keycard so i could start the rides." Yogi nodded.
"Where should we go?" Yogi asked.
Gareki shrugged. Then a roller coaster caught his eye. "How about that?" He asked.
Yogi nodded with a shrug. "Okay."
They walked to the bigest rollwer coaster. Yogi walked to a cart and climbed in. Gareki walked over to the machine. He put the card in and set the ride for 3 minutes. He climbed into the cart behind Yogi quickly. Yogi had already pulled the seat bar thing across his lap. Gareki sat down and pulled the one in the cart down. IT came down with a cranking sound. IT closed with a loud hollow CLACK. Yogi looked up and frowned.
Yogi looked up and frowned. His seat didn't make that sound. Was it supposed to?
He turned to Gareki to ask, when the ride started up. The ride started up slowly, but was soon almost at the top. Yogi turned to Gareki.
"G-Gareki?"
Gareki looked at Yogi. Why did Yogi look so nervous?
"IS the bar supposed to make that click sound?"
"Yeah. IT means it's locked. Why?"
"Mine didn't?
Uh oh. Wonder whats gonna happen. Well, i know...sorta. Eh. Please review!
Bye!
