A/N: Nic brings you Chapter 4

Chapter 4 – Losing a bet isn't always a bad thing....

Edward, Jasper and Emmett stared in disbelief at Jacob as he demanded they go on the tea cup ride.

"The tea cups? You can't be serious!" Emmett nearly shouted, indignant.

Jacob raised a brow and crossed his arms over his broad chest. "Oh I'm plenty serious." He couldn't quite control the twitch at the corner of his mouth though. "Like you didn't have some similar torture in mind if you had won."

Emmett opened his mouth, but shut it again quickly. He couldn't really deny that. "Fine, we'll ride the tea cups," he grumbled.

Edward gave Jasper a sideways glance, the corner of his mouth twitching at the unknown thought his brother had. Quickly he wiped his face smooth, and put on a look of distaste. "Well dog," he said it teasingly, "Lets head over there then."

Jacob rolled his eyes as the four men made their way toward Southwest Territory and the tea cup ride. Rosalie and Bella were watching Nessie in Wiggle World and Emmett and Edward waved to their wives to let them know they were leaving the area. Alice had disappeared and was no where to be found.

Bella looked up as Edward waved and she glanced at Rosalie. "What is that all about do you suppose?"

Rosalie shrugged and looked down at her nails. She needed a manicure, and Emmett had dragged her to a stupid theme park instead. But she would get her revenge. A small smile curved upon her lips. "Don't know, don't really care. They were having that stupid contest to see who was strongest without actually trying... maybe they are off to show off their macho-ness somewhere else."

Bella, keeping her eyes on Nessie, bit her lip. "I hope they don't do anything stupid."

Rosalie rolled her eyes. "Bella, they are men. It's in their genes to do something stupid."

Just then Nessie came flying off the ride, and right at Rosalie's legs. "Auntie Rose! Did you see me?!" she asked breathlessly.

Rosalie's eyes softened and she smiled down at the bronze haired girl. "Yes, Ness, I saw you. What do you want to go on next?"

"Can we go to Camp Cartoon?" she asked.

"Of course, lets go!" Rosalie took one hand, Bella the other, and they made their way toward Yukon Territory and Camp Cartoon.

As they stood in line for the tea cups, Emmett complained loud enough for Jacob to hear. Which didn't have to be very loud, but just to annoy him, Emmett was doing it as a human would. "Aw, c'mon Jake! I didn't mean it! Do we have to ride these?"

Edward and Jasper both just rolled their eyes. Emmett and Jacob had been so involved in their battle of wits that they hadn't noticed how quiet the other two were.

They finally got on the ride, and the three of them looked hilarious all smashed into one cup. The ride started and they all just sat there letting it go. They were on the ride, Jake never said they had to enjoy it or even pretend to.

Suddenly, as the cup spun around, Emmett started screaming like a frightened little girl. Edward looked at him strangely. Suddenly Edward too started screaming when the cup spun around again. Jacob frowned looking at the ride as terrified screams erupted from all those on it. The longer the ride continued, the louder the screaming got.

Freaked out by all the screaming that was out of character for the ride, the workers shut it down, and before they could even start helping people off, the bars were being thrown wide and people were running away from the ride, hands in the air, screaming bloody murder. Edward and Emmett were two of the last ones off, as Jasper sat alone in their tea cup, laughing hysterically to himself.

Watching the terrified people run away, Jacob started laughing. He could only guess what had happened. When the three vampires finally came off the ride, Jake offered his hand to Jasper in a sign of defeat. "I may have won, but you, my man, are clearly the superior mind here. I bow down to you."

Jasper shook Jacob's hand. "Thank you. I do try after all."
