Chapter 15
Steph led her group to the Mark Twain Docking Station, where their conversation was a lot less depressing. Steph knew what Katie talked about here, because the older always gets melancholy before boarding the boat.
"I'd bet you Katie talked about Walt while her group was sitting here. He used to come out here when he was ill with his lung cancer. He never recovered, sadly. But I am going to tell you about his wife instead!"
So Steph told the story of the Mark Twain's first voyage. It was Walt and Lily's thirtieth anniversary in nineteen fifty-five and they were spending it at the soon to be open Disneyland. Lily saw that the deck of the Mark Twain was covered in sawdust and started to dust it up. She commandeered a couple of Imagineers to help her and they had the entire ship cleaned up before the guests arrived. And they spent many hours with their guests laughing and having fun. Steph was a funny storyteller and the hosts were laughing hysterically at the story.
Since it was a while since Katie's group was on the Mark Twain, so the previous princess disembarked. Her shift was over, and the another person was going to take her place. But, this time, there was no prince to escort her. The cast member, who talked to Katie when she had her group escort the royal couple, saw Steph and her group, specifically Tamaki. He walked over and gave Steph her Captain's hat and a radio and whispered in her ear. She laughed, nodded, and he left. She turned to her group.
"How much more pretentious can my sister be?! She had her group escort a royal couple onto the boat when they were here. Now we are being asked to escort a princess aboard. What say you?" She asked.
The three hosts were honored to escort the princess so they went behind the same crate as before. The Princess Tiana was looking beautiful and was surprised to see the three handsome men there to escort her.
Of course Tamaki had the first words to say. "My beautiful princess, your beauty and charm is immeasurable. If I could live a thousand years, your smile will be the brightest light in my world." He knelt down and kissed her hand.
The princess was flustered by this compliment the Host Club Prince showered on her. The twins were soon to use their charms as well to further make Tiana blush. Steph took out her phone to take pictures of them interacting with the Princess.
Steph did the same into as Katie when they boarded and the crowds reaction was the same as before. Steph them took the three up to the Captain's cabin and had them sign the log. They had a blast pulling the whistle, horn, and bell.
At the Haunted Mansion, Katie was quietly preparing Haruhi for the abundance of thunder and lightning in the ride. Mori was keeping Honey busy by playing a game of "I spy". Kyoya was sketching the Mansion and adding some ghosts around the building. Haruhi looked prepared as they waited in the line, and they were in in no time. They came to the stretching room, where Katie had her arms around Haruhi during the thundering. They walked down the hall, which was consistently thunder and lightning. Haruhi had covered her ears and shut her eyes. Katie led her to the Doom Buggies with the help of Kyoya and they started the thunder and lightning was rare when they were actually on the ride, and Haruhi like it. Kyoya was impressed with the special effects while Mori and Honey found it funny. They all exited the ride smiling and happy.
Back on the Mark Twain, Tamaki, Hikaru, Kaoru, and Steph were having an abundance of fun with the boat. They came around and docked the boat and received their certificates. Like the previous group, the hosts knew that this honor would be displayed in their rooms some way. Tamaki wanted his framed and on display in Music Room 3! They took one last photo with the Princess and disembarked, meeting up with Katie and the other hosts at the Tom Sawyer Island rafts.
"Time for lunch!" Katie said, after checking Kyoya's watch. 1:40
