Ch. 5
(Hotel room, 4 AM)
Rancis woke up to a strange sound. He turned towards Vanellopes bed and saw her tossing and turning. He walked up to her and saw that she was crying in her sleep.
"Vanellope, are you alright?" asked Rancis
She jolted up and screamed
"It's okay Vanellope, it's just me" said Rancis "What happened?"
"I had a nightmare" said Vanellope breathing hard
"What happened?" asked Rancis
"The terminators, they destroyed us and the arcade" said Vanellope
"You're still afraid of them?" asked Rancis "I thought you said you got over them when the shields got put up"
"I'm mostly over them, but those shields can go down any time and we'll be dead. I still have nightmares a couple times a month" said Vanellope
"Well you're safe now, everyone makes sure those shields are always running" said Rancis
"I know but I'm still scared" said Vanellope shaking
"Would you like me to sleep with you to make you feel better?" asked Rancis
"You'd do that?" asked Vanellope
"I sure would" said Rancis as he got on her bed
"Thanks Rancis" said Vanellope before falling asleep "Goodnight"
"Goodnight Van" said Rancis before going back to sleep
(The next morning)
Vanellope woke up the next morning to see that Rancis was gone
"Rancis?" asked Vanellope
Rancis walked through the door carrying an envelope
"Morning sleepyhead, sleep well?" asked Rancis
"Sure did, where were you?" asked Vanellope
"Pawn shop, I sold that ring I found in my hot dog last night and found out it was super rare. Because of that I've just made us an extra 5 grand for this trip" said Rancis showing Vanellope the money
"Wow that's amazing" said Vanellope "So what's the plan today after breakfast?"
"I was thinking we do some snorkeling, parasailing, and whatever else there is to do on this island" said Rancis
"Cool" said Vanellope
"Get your clothes on and we'll go get some breakfast, I found this place called the cracker barrel and they make some great food" said Rancis
