"Well, since the pool is haunted, shall we go to the beach?" Lili proposed.
Everyone was huddled around the corner of the mansion, peeking at the pool. Puddles had formed at their feet, each of them still standing in their swimwear.
"It was only Kazumi, you know," Jun said.
"It matters not!" Lili said. "Kazumi is a ghost and she is in my pool—therefore, it is haunted!"
"I suppose technically you're right," Jun conceded.
"Then let us be off!"
Everyone followed Lili to her limo and slipped inside.
"Sebastian!" Lili called as she slammed the door shut. "Take us to the beach, please!"
"How do you know he's even in here?" Ling asked, the blackened window blocking the view of the driver's seat.
"Because he lives in here, of course."
"Why don't you let him live in the mansion?" Jun asked, flabbergasted. "There's a million bedrooms!"
"Because I need him here to drive me places!" Lili said, knocking on the window. "Sebastian! You're supposed to answer me in five seconds or you get the Matter Horn, remember?"
The window slid open but it wasn't Sebastian sitting in the driver's seat: it was Heihachi.
"What are you doing there?" Lili poked her head through and let out a delicate gasp. Sebastian was in the passenger seat beside Heihachi and he was knocked out cold.
"I'm a limo driver!" He said with a grin that was laced with lies.
"I thought you were a ghost?" Kazumi said, her head appearing through the door. She frowned at everyone when they didn't react. "You're not scared?"
"Eh, we're used to it now," Asuka said.
What they weren't used to was Heihachi's driving. He took off down the road eliciting screams from his passengers—besides Kazuya who liked mildly annoyed.
"Where's this old fool taking us?" He asked.
The limo rammed into a car, causing it to fishtail. Heihachi managed to get it back under control before continuing forwards.
"It's alright!" He said. "I'm already dead!"
"You're not a ghost, you moron!" Asuka spat. "And we're not dead… yet!"
"Can you at least take us to the beach?" Lars asked, calmly, his hair fizzy from the pool.
"Somebody has to stop him!" Jun said.
"I could kill him," Kazuya said.
"But he's a ghost!" Lee said, holding tightly onto his rose.
"No, he's not!" Asuka shouted.
"I will try!" Alisa said. She shattered the window with a single punch before flying outside.
"My poor limo!" Lili wept.
Alisa slipped under the vehicle and placed her hands underneath it. With all of her strength, she lifted it high into the air. Onlookers pointed in astonishment, and she could hear the yells of her friends in the limo.
"Look, mommy—a flying car!" Said little Timmy.
"Oh, don't be sill—" His mother's jaw dropped. "That's not a flying car, you silly boy! If you look closely, there's a robot woman carrying it! Don't tell lies, Timmy, or it's the Matter Horn, for you."
"You're being pedantic, mommy."
Alisa smiled at the boy as he passed her in the sky; his mother had executed that Matter Horn perfectly.
"Arwefwefiyu?" Asuka said. After sticking her head out of the window, she'd attempted to ask "are we there, yet?" but her lips were flapping so wildly she'd come out with a load of gibberish.
Coincidentally, they were, in fact, there. And Alisa simply dropped the car down on the beach. The car thudded down, the occupants falling from their seats.
"My sandcastle!" Wept a little girl. "You crushed it!"
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" Alisa said, hands over her mouth.
"How could you?" Kazuya asked, his head hanging out of the window.
"Yes, that was very careless of you, Alisa," Lee said, his head joining Kazuya's. "I and my brother had a spot of bother at a beach last year when I destroyed a sandcastle. It was very heartbreaking and I've regretted it since." He held out a rose to the little girl who accepted it. "Please, young miss, take this rose as compensation."
"I don't want this!" She said, tossing it to the sand. "I want money!"
Kazuya grinned and nodded approvingly.
Before Lee could give her any money—not that he was going to, mind you—the limo took off, again.
"Oh, right," Alisa said, grinning sheepishly. "I forgot Heihachi was still in the driver's seat."
Beachgoers scattered, narrowly avoiding being run over. Soon, the limo crashed into the sea and began to get carried away by the waves.
"This is bad," Lars said, stating the obvious.
"This is terrible!" Lili corrected, her teary eyes staring at the sea.
"Someone's got to stop him!" Jun said, pointing at Heihachi.
Kazuya responded by punching the old man in the head, knocking him out cold.
"Finally!" Ling said.
Alisa appeared at the window, her boosters blazing. "Don't worry, everyone! I'll get you out of he—" And then she was struck by lightning. Her crispy form flopped into the sea and was swept away by the waves.
Dark clouds had smothered the once blue sky, the only light coming from the occasional bolt of lightning. Rain pelleted the surface of the sea and the roof of the limo.
"Oh, crap!" Asuka yelled. "Now what do we do?"
They were stranded at sea in a limo during a storm. Who had ever heard of such a scenario? At least they were safe, for now.
But the sea had other ideas and flipped the limo. Bodies swam from the limo, darting in different directions. Their vacation had taken a turn for the worse—well… worse worse.
Heihachi's face emerged from the sea.
"I'd be worried right now if I wasn't a ghost!" He gurgled, his mouth full of seawater.
