Chapter 8
Magic Kingdom Awaits
The next morning, Elizabeth woke up thanks to her stepmother. Anna, apparently, had the same thing happen to her, but by her grandma.
"C'mon, you two rise and shine. We're going to the Magic Kingdom today," Mrs. Jones shook Elizabeth until she was up.
"Finally, you woke up," Anna teased. She was fun to be with, Elizabeth could tell you that.
"Right back at you," Elizabeth teased back, then giggled. Anna froze for a second, remembering that same giggle from somewhere, but putting that aside and started getting dressed. Elizabeth also started getting dressed.
"Breakfast will be ready when you're done getting changed," Mrs. Jones cheerily told Elizabeth and Anna.
"Alright, Mrs. Jones," Anna and Elizabeth replied to Mrs. Jones. The two looked at each other for a second, and returned to putting on their clothes.
"So, do like it in Disneyworld so far?" Elizabeth asked putting on her shirt.
"I love it here. They did a nice job with making the guests relax," Anna replied eagerly while putting on her shorts.
"I'm glad you already like it, because it'll only get better from here," Elizabeth also eagerly told Anna while putting on her own shorts. The two were both excited to go to the Magic Kingdom. Breakfast consisted of s'more cereal, the one with the normal cereal and the marshmallows in them.
"Anna, you have good taste for cereal," Elizabeth said mouth nearly stuffed with cereal.
"Why don't you like cereal with milk?" Anna asked, curious.
"I don't like milk and cereal together, that's all," Elizabeth replied taking in another spoonful of cereal.
Once the two were finished with their cereal, the group set off to the bus stop to get this trip started.
On the bus, Anna and Elizabeth talked some more about each other.
"By the way, this bus will go one other place then we'll go to the Magic Kingdom," Elizabeth commented.
"That's good to know," Anna replied looking hopeful.
"Do you have any other brothers or sisters?" Elizabeth asked curiously to her new friend.
"No, I don't, I'm an only child," Anna replied. "Your sister is nice," Anna commented.
"We're not actually sisters, more like stepsisters," Elizabeth gloomily responded looking at the floor.
"Oh, whatever happened to you, I'm sorry," Anna guiltily apologized.
"No, no, no, it's alright, you didn't know," Elizabeth faked a smile and a hopeful look, trying to lift Anna's spirits.
"Thank you," Anna smiled, glad that they reached an agreement.
"Well, we're here," Elizabeth sighed looking at the bus stop close to the Magic Kingdom. A monorail rolled by as they looked around the area.
"What's that?" Anna asked watching the monorail pass by the bus stop and continue to the monorail station.
"Oh, that's a monorail. We'll be riding one in a few days. Long story short, it's an electronic, suspended train," Elizabeth explained.
"Ok, thanks for telling me," Anna thanked Elizabeth. She really needed to know what it was like, but it would have to wait.
"Come on! We've got to hurry, or we'll be late," Elizabeth pulled Anna toward the entrance.
"I'll beat you there!" Anna ran ahead, Elizabeth running after her. The others followed the eager brunettes.
"They'll be great friends like we were," Mrs. Jones whispered to Anna's grandma.
"They'll be better than we were back then, but let's also have fun here," Anna's grandma whispered back, and the vacation officially started.
