-Chapter 5: Mr. Daredevil & Mrs. Daredevil-
(June 28, 2009.)
"Holy shit!" Troy exclaimed as he watched his fiancée walk out of the bathroom dressed in noting but a bikini, a white "Love Kills" string bikini from Ed Hardy, to be exact and her hair up in a high ponytail.
"Holy shit, what?" Gabriella asked with a smirk as she stood with her hands on her hips.
"Holy shit you look even more fucking hot then you always do," Troy replied as he started at her slip on a pair of a pair of women's five-pocket monterey wash denim shorts from Crystal Rock by Crystal Audigier before she slipped on a yellow zip up knitted short sleeve "bikini" hoodie from Ed Hardy.
Gabriella just giggled as she slipped on her white women's beachcomber "Tattoo You" sandals from Ed Hardy along with her black pair of "Love Kills Slowly" Ed Hardy sunglasses and her yellow platinum rhinestone "Death or Glory" Ed Hardy Cap.
Troy just smiled at her and picked up the HCO bag that they put all of their stuff in before they walked out of their room, but not before having a passionate kiss and a little groping action.
(Cedar Point Amusement Park- Sandusky, Ohio)
Before they entered the park, they all took group shots (one of the parents, one of the teens, one of all of them, one of the couples, and one of the families) before they all went in, got their tickets, got drinks, and then headed for their first destination, the Challenge Park, which was inside the park.
"Be my seat partner?" Troy whispered in Gabriella's ear as he had his arms wrapped around her from behind as they stood in line with everyone else to ride the Skyscraper.
Now, they Skyscraper was a towering thrill ride unlike any ride anyone has ever experienced at Cedar Point Peninsula. It featured a giant propeller consisting of two arms that spins guests in a full circle, Skyscraper is one the most thrilling rides in the amusement industry. Four riders, two on each arm, would sit in open cars with their feet dangling, on opposite ends of the propeller while it quickly rotated in a clockwise direction, spinning riders 16 stories into the air at speeds of up to 55 miles per hour. And theirs a twist! At it's high point, riders are upside down 160 feet above the ground!
"Oh come on Shar-Bear! You so have to go on! We all do, remember it's a challenge park," Gabriella reminded Sharpay as she and Troy stood in front of them listening to Sharpay begging Zeke not to make her go on or him go on, but Zeke was having none of it.
"But, I'm scared!" Sharpay exclaimed.
"Baby girl, nothings going to happen to you. I promise," Vance who was standing behind his daughter and her boyfriend with her mom, told her, kissing the top of her head.
"Well, you ride with me daddy?" Sharpay asked her dad with puppy dog eyes.
"Sure baby girl," Vance told her before he turned to Zeke and Derby and asked, "You two don't mind riding together due you?"
"Nah, we're good," Zeke replied with a smile as did Derby who nodded her head in a agreement. And so with that Vance and Zeke switched spots in line and cheered as it was time for Gabriella and Troy to go on, the first out of their group.
"Now, you make sure you take care of my baby sister, Troy," Brett warned him.
"Always," Troy replied before he and Gabriella walked in and sat down.
They soon waved goodbye to everyone as they felt the ride starting up and as it did they laced their fingers tightly.
Down below, the onlookers took part in the fun by watching a live streaming video of the four riders screaming in delight at they soared through the air.
"I think Brie-Ella's glad she put her hair up," Sharpay complemented to her dad who laughed, but also agreed as he looked on the screen with everyone else as the camera went up close to each rider to catch their expressions as they hung upside down.
Soon later, the two minute ride was over, and Troy and Gabriella were safely back on concrete with bright smiles on their faces.
"Good luck!" Troy and Gabriella said together as they exited the ride and walked a stand by the Skyscraper where they were going to purchase their memorable video of them on the ride while they watched on the screen for the others.
"Well, Sharpay's screaming bloody murder," Gabriella complemented as they stood waiting for everyone else.
"It's probably only because her hair's getting messed up," Troy replied.
Gabriella just smiled and clapped along with the rest of the onlookers who were congratulating the four riders which were from their group, Zeke, Sharpay, Vance, and Derby; as they got off the ride.
"Alright Shar-Bear!" Gabriella said as she high fived Sharpay who smiled and pulled her hair up into a ponytail before she walked with her parents and Zeke to buy the video also.
Soon later, they all had screamed their heads off, got messy hair, and bought videos along with taking pictures from the Skyscraper before they headed to the next thing, Challenge Racing.
"Which track?" Gabriella asked the group as they looked at the two go-kart speedways, Sprint and the Grand Prix.
Soon later, the ten wildcats laughed as they looped arms and skipped over to the speedway they chose which was the Grand Prix while everyone else went on the other one.
"Alright seeing as you're all tall enough. To prove that you're all sixteen years or over I need some valid identification, please," the person running the track asked.
"Here you go," Gabriella said as she handed him her driver's license.
"Thank you Ms. Montez," the person replied with a bright smile as he quickly looked her up and down, and even when he saw the engagement ring, he still continued to ogle her until Troy gave him a death glare as did the rest of the wildcats; and while this whole thing was going on, Gabriella didn't notice seeing as she was watching other driver drive around the speedway with excitement lighting her chocolate brown eyes. After coughing to "clear" his throat and to get Gabriella's attention, he asked her, "One trip or to consecutive trips?"
"Two consecutive trips please," Gabriella replied sweetly.
"Alright eight dollars please," the guy told her and before Gabriella could even think about reaching into her tote to grab her wallet, Troy already had his hand in Gabriella's tote, pulling his wallet out and handing sixteen dollars over along with his driver's license.
They guy took the money and gave them their driver's licenses back before he let them go grab a go-kart so, their fun could begin.
Soon later after the go-karts and after Chad, Troy, and Gabriella were the first group finished with riding the RipCord, a skycoaster where people could ride along or in groups of two or three as they zoomed down within six feet above the ground below at speeds of up to 65 miles per hour; and were busy taking pictures of themselves and everyone else who were still on the ride.
Gabriella giggled as the three just got done taking a picture of them with Gabriella in the middle smiling as the other two kissed her cheeks.
"That was a cute picture Brie-Ella," Sharpay told Gabriella as she was able to snap a picture of the three before they stopped.
"Thanks. How was it?" Gabriella asked Sharpay with a smile as she stood in between Troy and Chad, Troy with his arm around her waist and Chad with his arms around her shoulders which caused Sharpay to take another picture.
"It was so sweet," Zeke replied for his girlfriend and together they had fun taking pictures while waiting for everyone else to finish up.
And soon later, they were finished with the Challenge Park once they finished the last challenge which was either a 36 or 18 hole golf course where the females, even the ones who knew how to golf, played the can-you-teach-me-how-to card.
------
"How about we do families for this one?" Gabriella suggested as they stood in line for their first rollercoaster of the day, the Raptor.
A few minutes, everyone agreed and got in line with the Montezes in the gate line that would let them sit up front when it was their turn, with the Boltons behind them, followed by the Danforths, McKessies, Evans, Coxes, Baylors, Nielsens, and Crosses.
When it was their turn the males quickly ran the bags over to the cubby holes and stuffed them all in one along with their flip flops, before they all sat back down with their group just as they shoulder harnesses and lap belts were ready to be done.
After hearing the person running the ride, tell them the rules through the speakers they all paid attention well and then cheered as they heard the person say the famous line for the ride, "There goes the floor, you're out the door - enjoy your ride on Raptor!"
And off they went on the exciting inverted roller coaster that altogether turned them upside down a total of six times, and included a 100-foot-tall vertical loop, two inverted corkscrews, a zero-gravity roll and a cobra, which flipped them twice.
They all laughed or screamed (with happiness), with Chad who screamed like a girl (because he was scared) as they went upside down so, they were looking at the sky, not the ground.
And just like that….the two minute and sixteen second ride was over with and they were back at the launch pad where everyone cheered for them as they waited for the shoulder harnesses to be lifted off of them so they could get out.
As they got out they took quick pictures, if they didn't already before and quickly put their flip flops back on and grabbed their stuff before heading to the next ride, Blue Streak, another rollercoaster where they decided to go in couples.
"Excited?" Troy asked Gabriella as he they sat beside each other in the front of the train with Zeke and Sharpay behind them.
"Yep," Gabriella replied excitingly as she laced their fingers and then held their laced hands up once the lap bar started going down once their seatbelts were securely done.
After a worker checked to make sure each rider was secure in both the belt and lap bar, the worker behind the microphone went over the rules before he wished them good luck and pushed the button for the ride to start.
As they traveled slowly up the seventy-eight foot lift hill, Sharpay leaned forwards, poking her head between Troy and Gabriella and told them, "Did you know this is the oldest coaster at Cedar Point? It's celebrating forty-five years of ups and downs!"
Gabriella and Troy just laughed at Sharpay and then took in the view as the train stopped at the top of the lift so everyone could enjoy the hill before the train traveled down the seventy-two foot vertical drop and as the train traveled down the hills, they let out screams of excitement as they threw their hands up in the air like true coaster riders and they did the same as they train then traveled on the last of the ride, which was a fast hilly side before the traditional wooden out-and-back coaster was done with it's one minute and forty-five second long ride.
They all took pictures again before collecting their stuff and heading the to the next ride which was Calypso which was located adjacent to the classic Blue Streak.
"May I have this ride?" Brett asked his little sister causing her to giggle and agree before she kissed Troy's lips and then skipped off with her brother to be the first ones out of their group to ride it with Chad pulling his mom behind him wanting to try to beat them as everyone else and other onlookers laughed at them.
"Seeing as my boyfriend decided to ride with your girlfriend may I ride with you?" Cristy asked Troy who smiled and nodded his approval before they walked towards the ride.
"OH MY LANTA!" Gabriella yelled excitingly as her and her brother were having fun spinning counter-clockwise in the cars on Calypso while the entire turntable structure spun clockwise.
"HI BRIE-ELLA! HI BRETT!" Sharpay yelled as she seen Gabriella and Brett.
"HI!" Brett and Gabriella yelled back as they waved at Sharpay.
"Look, there's mom and dad!" Brett said as he pointed to their parents and everyone else's parents (minus Chad's mom) who weren't on the ride, but were off of it taking pictures.
"HI MOMMY! HI DADDY!" Gabriella yelled as she waved at them while her brother waved hi to them to as they snapped pictures of the two with bright smiles as they waved back.
"Look there's Cristy and Troy," Gabriella said as she pointed to Cristy and Troy who were in line waiting to get on next.
"HI BABE!" Brett yelled at Cristy who paused hers and Troy's conversation and waved back at him.
"HI WILDCAT!" Gabriella shouted at Troy before she squealed and hung on for dear life as it started going faster.
Troy smiled and waved at Gabriella once he saw her face again before continuing his conversation with Cristy, both enjoying getting to know each other.
Soon later, Brett and Gabriella along with Sharpay & Zeke, and Chad & Vanessa all got off, but not before taking pictures and exited the ride before going to join the rest of the parents while everyone else went on.
"I'm going to get another pop, want to come with?" Brett asked his little sister as he put his arm around her shoulders.
"Sure," Gabriella replied before she turned to her parents and said, "We'll be back. We're going over there to get a pop. Do you guys want anything?"
"Nah," Greg replied.
"No thank you and please do stay together you two," Inez told both of her babies as she kissed each of their foreheads.
"We always do," Brett replied before him and his little sister slipped across from Calypso to a pop stand to get some pop.
Soon later, everyone felt like kids again as they rode the Turnpike Cars which had American Muscle replica cars with a seven horsepower engine, and then they headed to Demon Drop.
"By the name and look of it, it sounds scary," Chad said as they stood in line and looked at it.
"Somebody scared?" Troy asked with a smirk.
"Not a chance," Chad shot back quickly, a little too quickly.
"Yeah okay," Troy replied with a smirk.
"Your one to talk and I wouldn't be laughing either Gabster because the same thing could be said about you," Chad told them before thinking about his answer.
"Um, son they've gone on every ride first even if it looked scary or super heights and if they were afraid of heights or anything like that they sure didn't show it…unlike you," Kyle told his son with a smirk.
"Yeah. They've been Daredevils all morning," Taylor told her boyfriend.
"That's us Mr. and Mrs. Daredevil," Troy said proudly as he wrapped his arms around Gabriella's waist and placed a kiss on her forehead.
And before Chad could say anything, Troy and Gabriella moved yet again that they defiantly were daredevils as they got on the ride and sat down with Brett and Cristy next to him as they got in and securely put on the harnesses waiting for the ride to begin.
Chad's eyes went big as he watched the car holding his best friend move horizontally to the base of the 131-foot-tall tower and then as the car started ascending to the top of the tower in only six seconds.
He watched as their car, once at the top, slowly inched forward into the drop area. His eyes went as big as dear in headlights when after it felt like an eternity and without warning, the car plummeted 60 feet in less than two seconds before entering the pull-out curve where a computerized braking system slowly stopped their car.
"How was it?" Jack asked his son, Gabriella, Brett and Cristy once they got off.
"Awesome," Brett replied.
"Sweet," Troy replied.
"I almost lost my sunglasses, but it was defiantly sweet I think I'm going to do it again before we leave," Gabriella told him with a bright smile after she and Cristy got done taking a picture together.
"I almost lost my sunglasses too! And my hat!" Cristy replied.
"I know me too!"
"Well, when you want to go back on it let me know and I'll go with you because I defiantly want to go that again," Troy told Gabriella as Cristy and Brett nodded in agreement.
Jack and everyone else laughed and waited for their turn in rides while the other four waited for everyone to get done.
-----
"Get 'em wildcat!" Gabriella said with a giggle as she and Troy sat in the next ride, Dodgem, which was a bumper car ride, as did the rest of their group and started having the time of their lives bumping each other with the cars.
"Got 'em!" Troy said and Gabriella high fived him before she took the wheel all of a sudden and made the car go up behind her parents car and hit them from the side.
"Hey!" Inez and Greg said, not expecting it.
"My bad," Gabriella replied before she quickly steered away from them while Troy just worked the peddle, laughing at his fiancée.
"Aw man," Chad said once every car shut down due to all of their time of the ride being done.
Smiling Troy and Gabriella took another picture of them kissing each other in the car, before they got of the car and high fiving each other with bright smiles on their faces because they were the true King and Queen of Bumper Cars because they were the only ones out of the group that didn't get hit by everyone.
"Oh shut up," Chad told them.
"What? We didn't say anything!" Gabriella said with a smirk.
"Yeah, but you were going to," Chad told her.
"True," Troy and Gabriella said together with smirks before singing 'We Are the Champions' causing Chad to glare at them.
"Dude, why'd you have to ride with her! We always ride! And ever since we were eight we've been champs at them, and you had to go blow that by riding with Gabster," Chad told Troy as they all walked towards the next ride.
Troy just laughed and shrugged his shoulder before he stopped and unlaced his fingers with Gabriella.
"Dude, why'd you stop?" Chad asked him causing everyone else to stop and turn around to look at him.
"Gabriella had to make a pit stop," Troy told him and the other males who didn't take notice of their missing females who all ran off to the restroom together.
"Oh!" Chad said, his mouth forming a big 'O'.
"Yep," Troy replied as he took his and Gabriella's Pepsi out of her tote and took a swig of it before putting the lid back on tightly and setting it back in the bag.
--------
"You know what's awesome about today?" Gabriella told Troy once they were in line for their next ride, a roller coaster called Wildcat.
"What?" Troy asked her.
"One, the roller coasters. And two, we get special access because our passes which mean we don't have to stand in those huge lines at the entrance we get to stand at these exits and get in before everyone else," Gabriella told him as they sat down in the second row of the coaster train.
"True," Troy replied and smiled as Zeke and Sharpay sat in front of them and Chad and Taylor in back of them.
"Smile you two," Sharpay told Troy and Gabriella as she turned around with her camera in hand.
Gabriella smiled and leaned her head on Troy's shoulder while he rested his head on hers and they both smiled at the camera.
"Now, that's a cute picture," Sharpay said before she quickly wrapped the camera string, the one used to hold the camera, around her hand and then made sure her hands were tightly on the bar so, her she didn't fall and neither did her camera.
Once their coaster ride was over with, they headed to the next ride, another coaster which was Iron Dragon and went to the exit like they did for every ride thanks to their special access cards.
"Jason, can you ride with me?" Jasmine asked Jason who was holding hands with Kelsi.
"Is that okay with you?" Jason asked Kelsi who nodded her head and let go of Jason's hand.
"Thanks sis," Jasmine told Kelsi before she stood behind Jason ready to ride her first ride with him of the day.
"Ready baby girl?" Greg asked his daughter as they fastened and tightened their shoulder harnesses once they sat down in the front of the train ready to go.
"Defiantly," Gabriella told her dad before she kissed his cheek and as she did she snapped her camera with a smile.
Greg smiled at her and made sure his daughter's camera and his & his wife's camera strings were wrapped seceruly around his wrist so they didn't fall off as they ride began.
"Wee!" Gabriella said causing Greg to chuckle at his daughter as their train started to go slowly up the lift.
Gabriella smiled as she heard Sharpay having fun with her dad who both sat behind her and her dad as their train swung out to the sides as the coaster ride dropped and turned.
"Here we go again," Chad told Troy as their train started going up again for the second time that ride so they were higher as they swung and swayed on turns and drops.
Troy chuckled and told Chad, "Yep, which means the fun isn't over yet."
Chad just laughed at his best friend and just enjoyed having fun with him as the coaster continued.
"Aw man! It's over with!" Jasmine exclaimed as the coaster came to a stop back at the station.
"Yep, it sucks doesn't it?" Jason asked her.
"Yep," Jasmine replied before she hugged Jason and said, "Thanks for riding with me Jason."
"It's no problem. We'll do it again sometime today, okay?" Jason told her.
"You bet," Jasmine told him before she skipped over to her parents.
"Have fun?" Kelsi asked him as she laced her fingers with his.
"Yeah. You?" Jason asked her with a smile.
"Me and dad had fun," Kelsi told him with a smile as they joined the rest of the group for a picture before they headed for another drink stop before heading to the next ride.
"Oh hell no!" Chad said as he stared at the next coaster they were going to conquer which was Mantis.
"Scared?" Troy asked him with a smirk.
"N…no," Chad stuttered.
"Chadster, would it make you feel better if I rode with you?" Gabriella asked him with a soft smile.
"Would you pretty please?" Chad begged while their parents and everyone else looked at them amused by the whole situation.
"Only if Tay-Tay and Troy don't mind riding together," Gabriella told him.
"You guys will be okay riding together right?" Chad asked his girlfriend and best friend.
"Go on ahead you big baby," Taylor told him with a smile as Troy nodded his head in agreement.
"Alright, thanks. I'll see you at the end of the ride," Chad said before mumbling, "if if survive."
Gabriella just giggled and grabbed Chad's hand so they could beat everyone out for the seats at the very front.
"Mind if I sit here baby?" Vanessa asked her son seeing as their were four seater trains.
"Go right ahead mom," Chad told his mom and watched as his parents sat down so it went his dad and Gabriella on the outside with him and his mom in the inside.
"Thanks baby. Are you alright?" Vanessa asked him.
"I will be once this is over…and after I conquer this fear," Chad told her.
"Well, don't worry baby. I'm scared too," Vanessa told him with a soft smile as she grabbed his hand.
"You are?" Chad asked her surprised.
"Yeah, but you see I know I'll get through it because of your daddy and God. You just have because I believe I can and I have the strength to do it," Vanessa told her son before the yellow shoulder harnesses came down and they buckled them into the seatbelt.
"Thanks mom," Chad told his mom with a smile.
"No problem baby. Just remember you have Gabriella, me, your father, and most importantly God with you," Vanessa told her son as a worker came to make sure every harness and seatbelt were secured tightly.
"Hello and welcome to Mantis! The Point's only stand-up roller coaster, that'll turn you head over heels four times during it's two-and-a-half minute adventure. At 145 feet tall, Mantis is one of the tallest coasters here at Cedar and was the tallest and fasted stand-up coaster when it opened in 1996. Now, that I've told you all that I would like to ask you to remember the rules and just to have fun. Enjoy and good luck!" The worker behind the microphone told them through the speakers before they slowly started up the 145-foot lift that would lead them into the 137 foot vertical drop.
"Holy mother of God!" Chad said as their train started to go through the 119-foot-tall vertical loop and he soon repeated it with a girly scream as their train turned a heavily banked 360-degree turn.
Just remember you have Gabriella, me, your father, and most importantly God with you, Chad's mind said remembering his mother's words just seconds before. He looked over to his mom who was smiling and actually conquering her fear because she had her hands off the handles and up in the arm while she screamed for joy.
As they reached the last bit of the ride, the finally which was a figure-eight, Chad found himself having conquered his fears about this ride.
As they exited it Chad thanked Gabriella and his mom for helping him out and also God before he joined the others and waited to see which one he had to conquer next and as they were getting ready to go up to the exit entrance he said, "Oh hell no! Defiantly hell no!"
"Dude what's the matter? Didn't you just conquer your fears?" Troy asked him.
"Yeah for Mantis. Not for Millennium Force, the Millennium Force!" Chad shot back out at him.
"Chad just remember what your mom and I told you," Gabriella told him as she stood by Troy now wanting to ride with him.
"Okay," Chad told her, his mom, and himself before he stood in line.
"I've been waiting to ride this one since for-ev-er!" Gabriella told Troy as they sat in the very front of the train.
"Same here," Troy replied before he said, "You might want to warn the other females to pull their ponytails or buns through their holes in the back of their hats so they don't go flying off?"
"Way ahead of you, Superstar," Sharpay told him as she and Zeke sat in back of them.
"Well, good for you, but what about everyone else?" Troy told her.
"I've already warned them," Sharpay told him as she stuck her tongue out at him and him doing it back causing Zeke and Gabriella to laugh at them.
"Oh behave up there you two!" Lucille told them.
"SURE MOM!" Troy yelled back to his mom.
"SURE MRS. BOLTON!" Sharpay yelled to his mom with a smile.
"Watch your hands, Wildcat," Gabriella told Troy as she noticed the lap bars starting to come down once everyone's seatbelts were buckled.
Troy smiled as a thank you and kissed her cheek just as a worker began to check to make sure the lap bars and seatbelts were secured as the other worker at the microphone began to talk, "Hello and welcome to Cedar Point and to Millennium Force. Consistently voted the "Best Steel Coaster in the World," Millennium Force broke ten world records when it opened in 2000. We here at Cedar would like to you to remember the rules and to have fun. Good luck and enjoy the ride!"
"Did you notice these seats are tiered seating for the better viewing and their also similar to stadium seating?" Troy asked Gabriella as their train traveled up the 310 foot lift.
"No, I didn't until you mentioned it," Gabriella told him with a smile.
"Holy…" Troy said.
"Mother…" Ryan said.
"Of…"Jason said.
"God…" Chad said before him and everyone else screamed with either excitement and or fear as their train began the 80 degree drop down the 300 foot vertical drop.
Soon they were going on 122-degree overbanked turns (extremely banked, but not quite inverted), and through two dark tunnels, before it stopped which made it feel like they didn't even leave for the ride yet because that was an extremely fast 2 minutes and 20 seconds.
"Alright! That has to be the best!" Gabriella exclaimed as they got off the roller coaster, some of them looking sick and others having wobbly feet.
"Defiantly!" Troy agreed.
"Just get walking Mr. and Mrs. Daredevil," Lucille told them before adding, "So I can take some Advil."
"Now, that you mention it Lucy, I need some too," Gabriella replied with a smile.
"Yay! A water ride!" Gabriella and Sharpay said together as they jumped up and down.
"Finally!" Chad exclaimed as he took off his shirt as did the rest of everyone along with the females taking off their bottoms and then them all taking off their flip flops and putting them in their bags.
Hearing girls whistle at Gabriella and hearing guys whistle at Troy, they walked over to each other and cuddled in each other's arms before passionately kissing before they broke apart with bright smiles that turned into smirks as they got in line at the exit.
"Alright so seeing as theirs 33 of us altogether, we can split it so there's an even amount in each of the three rafts. So, we'll do it like this. In raft number one we'll have my family, the Boltons, Cristy, and the Evans. In raft number two we'll have the Baylors, the Coxes, Quincy, and the McKessies. And in raft number three, we'll have the Danforths, the Nielsens, and the Crosses. Sound okay." Greg asked.
"Somebody can sit over here with us," Kelsi told her mom seeing that her mom's raft seat side was crowded.
"I'll go sit with them," Jasmine said and smiled as her parents told her it was okay.
"You just keep an eye on her," Miranda told Kelsi who smiled and nodded.
"Alright, your turn," the worker told Jack's group and together they all put their stuff in the cubby holes before getting in the circular raft.
"Smile, Brie-Ella, Superstar!" Sharpay said as she put her arm around Gabriella's shoulder and all three of them posed for a picture as Sharpay snapped the shot with her waterproof camera.
"Smile Shar-Bear!" Gabriella said as she held her camera up to take a picture of her and Sharpay who also snapped a picture of them.
Two minutes and thirty seconds later and many splashes, waterfalls, and spraying; Gabriella's tube came to the end of the ride and everyone got out, totally drenched!
They all took pictures and then as the other raft that carried the rest of their group came, they all took pictures together before Gabriella took some with her family, Troy, and Sharpay before they headed to Wave Swinger and Antique Cars.
------
(5PM)
"Wow, it's getting late," Gabriella said as it got dark and the whole park was beautifully lit by lights from the sidewalk and on the rides.
"It's late, but still hot," Troy replied.
"Well, then it's a good thing Snake River Falls is a water ride huh?" Gabriella replied with a smile as she placed an open mouthed kiss on his chest, a little above his right nipple.
"True," Troy replied as he tried not to let a moan from the open mouthed kiss escape his lips.
"Ready?" Sharpay asked them as she and Zeke along with Chad and Taylor slide into the front with them while the rest of their group filled up the rest of the boat making where everyone else would have to wait because they all had filled up the boat.
"Hell fucking yeah!" Troy said and then owed as his mom whacked him on the back of the head and warned him about his language. "Sorry momma."
Soon their lap bars came down before the boat took them on a meandering journey until it reached the edge of the first hill. The boat then plummeted down at an amazing fifty-degree angel in 1.3 seconds, creating a 1,600-square-foot wave that soaked all of them completely as well as the onlookers standing on the wooden bridge built directly over the splash landing zone.
"Come on I want to go get splashed by the wave!" Gabriella told Troy as she dragged him along with her while the other females did the same to theirs, Jasmine helping her mom drag her dad.
"Here it comes!" Chad yelled and they all cheered and braced themselves as they got hit by the waved, making them even more drenched then they already were.
After being swung 125' feet in their air as 60 miles per hour on the red, yellow, blue with gold detailed Skyhawk and keeping slanted to the side on the Cedar Creek Mine Ride coaster, and we're ready to conquer their next coaster, which was Maverick.
"You ready Princess?" Brett asked his sister who sat between him and their dad, while their mom sat on the other side of Brett.
"Defiantly!" Gabriella exclaimed before she turned her head and asked the people sitting behind her, "You all ready?"
"Defiantly, Mrs. Daredevil," Troy who was sitting between his parents with Cristy sitting on the outside by his mom, answered with a bright smile.
"How about you Shar-Bear? You all ready?" Gabriella said a little louder so it reached the Evans who were sitting behind the Boltons.
"A-okay here Brie-Ella!" Sharpay answered back.
"Have fun," Kelsi told them as the 12 passenger train out of six trains, took the Montezes, Boltons, and Evans away on their ride.
Gabriella smiled and waved back before she screamed in happiness as they went up the first hill really fast before going down 95-degree first drop.
Two 360-degree corkscrew rolls, eight airtime-filled hills, one 400-foot-long tunnel, 10 banked turns later, Gabriella's train returned back to the load and unload station.
-----
After getting done with Maverick, they went on Mean Streak followed by Gemini, Monster, Paddlewheel Excursions, and Witches' Wheel before they headed to the coaster celebrating its 20th Anniversary, Magnum XL-200.
"Do you know this one has one of the steepest drops in the world?" Gabriella told Sharpay who was sitting beside her.
"Oh," Sharpay said before she turned her head and mumbled, "great."
"Don't worry, Shar-Bear! I'm right here, Troy's directly behind me, and Zeke's directly behind you so, you're defiantly not going anywhere's because these lap bars will keep us safe and so will our guys," Gabriella told Sharpay as their train began the 205 feet lift hill.
"OKAY, BUT UM…WHERE'S THE TRACK?!" Sharpay yelled as they began going down the 60 degree drop.
"IT'S RIGHT UNDERNEATH THE TRAIN! DON'T WORRY, THE TRAINS ON IT!" Gabriella yelled her reply back as they started going up another hill and then back down.
Sharpay just put her trust in her bestie and in the designers of the ride and just enjoyed herself and the special effects that were in each of the three dark tunnels.
"That had to be the fast coaster yet! And funniest!" Sharpay exclaimed as they got out of the train, gathered their stuff, and began to exit the ride area.
"It sure felt like it," Gabriella replied back as she looped her arm with Troy and Sharpay as they walked a little ahead of the group.

"Oh! Troy, look it's so pretty! Isn't it the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?" Gabriella said as they cuddled in a seat on the Giant Wheel which was probably what the rest of the couples were doing.
"Nah, I'm looking at her," Troy told her sweetly as he looked at him.
Gabriella smiled and locked their eyes together before she met him halfway and they shared a passionate kiss….

Well, there you all go! Now, this took a whole lot of work! I hope you enjoy it! It was tiring some and yet fun to write. So please do enjoy! I love you all, but not as much as Cloe! XOXO.
Toodles.

"And my goal in life is to give the world what I was lucky to receive: the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance." --Michael Jackson
MJ, you did just that. The U.S.A and probably the world to are truly lost without the Pop legend. We love you and we miss you. Everyone was ready for your comeback and it's defiantly heartbreaking that you'll never get to have that "MJ Era", but you'll live on through your dance, your music, and most of through "Triller".
Rest In Peace
Michael Jackson
