Tah Dah! It took me a while, but that's cause I didn't know where I wanted to go with this story, plus I was busy with Birthday Surprise. So here's a short chapter. I promise the next one will be longer! Though school's gonna start tomorrow, so I'm probably gonna update all my stories over the weekend after this. Anyways, please have fun everyone!
Kit could not get out of the car fast enough. After that torture ride of yelling, screaming, and crying (at one point she was pretty sure they were being chased by the cops), they had finally arrived. Laurie had immediately gone to claim a spot on the beach with Nina and Aja, and had left Kit to wander around.
It was about 7 in the morning. People hadn't really arrived yet, and as Kit looked around, her writer's mind began working and she couldn't help but think that the amusement park looked a little like a desolate ruin in the gray light. In an apocalyptic world, she thought, the people here would be the only remaining survivors… But how would it work if there are no barriers…?
"Lost in your world again, dearest?" a smooth voice said behind her.
"AAIIII!" She shrieked, whirling around to face…Altair. He just smiled. "Don't!" Pant. "Don't SCARE me like that!"
"Yeah, don't be mean to L- I mean Kit!"Yenny exclaimed, coming up behind them.
"I was not being mean. Rather, I was simply bringing her back to earth. Her lovely head should not remain in the clouds when I am here."
"That's great Loke…" Kit looked around. "Where are Misty and Gary?"
"Gary's helping Misty get lunch ready. She's a fantastic cook, you'll love her food." Smiled Yenny.
"Oh, you don't have to add me to your lunch list. I was planning on just buying something."
"Aw, come on Kit! Please? It'll be so much fun! Plus, we have more food than we could possibly eat!"
"As long as HE comes late…" muttered Altair, and was promptly smacked on the back of his head by the bluenette.
"Who's he?"
"One of the others coming." Yenny curtly said, throwing a glare at Altair. "You'll meet them soon. And don't worry! There's PLENTY of food."
"Well… I guess as long as there's a surplus…"
"Yay!" Yenny gave a big smile.
Altair suddenly cocked his head as if he had heard something. When Kit looked at him curiously, he smiled, grabbed her arm, and ran away.
"Where are you going?" Cried Yenny.
"Getting our passes!" He smirked.
"Well don't leave me behind!" Yenny ran behind them, and soon they were blocked by a rollercoaster.
Not two minutes later, three figures walked towards the place where Kit had been daydreaming.
"Eliza…"
"Do NOT call me that! Call me by my proper name!"
"The master said we had to call you Eliza."
A striking red head turned and glared at the gruff looking man that had spoken. "I don't care what the master said. I refuse to be called by that PATHETIC name! I AM-!"
"In this world." The man said. "And here you do not exist, except as a two dimensional figure. Look, HE understands." The man nodded towards an adolescent looking boy, with spiky blond hair and green eyes. The boy looked up quickly, and looked down again.
"No, you're wrong. I do not understand." The boy stared straight ahead. "I don't understand why we have to go through all this secrecy. If it were up to me, I'd FORCE her to remember. But as it is, I don't understand anything. So I'm just waiting, until I know enough."
"But…" The scarlet haired woman started. The boy held up his hand.
"Here, you will call me Neil." The gruff looking man just stared, and then started laughing.
"I know thought I'd see the day when YOU make more sense than the amazing ELIZA!"
The woman apparently named Eliza glared and said, "I refuse to be called THAT. Call me by my NAME!"
The man rolled his eyes. "None of us like our 'names'. Do you think I like to be called…" Here he made a look of distaste. "John? Ugh, that name is so plain sounding."
Neil looked up and sniffed the air. "She was here. Along with that idiot…"
"And the bookworm. Better go meet them before 'Altair' gets too much of a head start, eh Neil?"
Neil shot him an incredulous look. "What are you talking about?"
John snorted with disbelief. "After all this, you still don't know?"
"No…"
"You're even more of an idiot than I thought."
"Say that again!"
"Let's go. We should get our tickets before things get too crowded."
Neil stretched, and a goofy grin stretched across his lips. I can't wait to see you, weirdo.
'Eliza' looked over at the blond, and smiled. "He's sure to realize it soon." She said under her breath.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Eliza?"
BAM!
Neil had his head buried in the sand, arms trying to pull himself out as his legs flayed around.
"I SAID DON'T CALL ME THAT!" 'Eliza' fumed, and stomped away. John took one look at the boy, and doubled over, clutching his stomach and laughing.
Woot! That was yummy, don't you think? ;) Please don't forget to review!
