Author's Note

It's Steph again! sorry I haven't been doing much for the story lately, it's been busy. But I have some news! First of all, a reminder that we will be going on a hiatus that will last from may 22nd to June 5th. We have a lot going on with the school year ending, and need to catch up on writing future chapters. So five posting days will be missed, sorry! Also, as Katie mentioned in the authors note in the last chapter, this chapter says that Space Mountain has a single rider line. SPACE MOUNTAIN DOES NOT HAVE A SINGLE RIDER LINE! We decided to add for the story. Speaking of my dear sister, Katie is not doing the uploading today because she is on her way to Disneyland as I post this. Lucky! But while she's there she will be doing more research for the story, as well as having a good time (and getting me souvenirs, I hope!) But aside from all that, the story!

Chapter 24

MORI'S ADVENTURE

After escorting Honey with his eyes to Buzz Lightyear, Mori walked to the giant spaceport and smiled. He really wanted to go back to Big Thunder Mountain, but this mountain would do just the same. He walked to the single rider line and was escorted through towards the front. He waited in a ten minute line as he looked around, marveling at the beauty of Disney magic.

He may have been waiting for only a minute or so before he heard someone call his name. He looked around, confused. Then, about five people back, he saw a hand waving up at him. It was Kaoru! Mori let a few people in front of him so he could stand next to someone he knew.

"Space Mountain, Mori?" The twin asked. "I thought you would go here. This ride has to be one of my favorites!"

Mori nodded his agreement and listened as Kaoru talked about the stars. It was fun and fascinating. Mori just nodded and listened. He was a great listener. Occasionally, he would ask a question or two about space and Kaoru would happily answer. The time passed like it did with Honey and Haruhi, fairly fast. They were not separated on the ride, since they needed a party of two to get on. They boarded the ride and they were off.

It was if they had never rode it before. Kaoru was screaming with delight as Mori was cheering loudly. They both looked and sounded like little kids, which was a stretch for the huge Mori. They exited the ride laughing and talking excitedly about the great adrenaline rush. Mori chattering was still an unusual sight for the twin, but it was nice to know that the third year was having fun.

This time as they got in the single line, Mori was doing the talking. He decided to tell Kaoru about the plan Honey had to get the King and secret Princess together. Kaoru seem astounded that Honey could come up with this completely doable plan. Mori reflected that most people forgot how deep his cousin could be. How complicatedly caring. He wasn't a naïve boy like most people thought. But, at the same time, this plan was banking on two certain fools to forget these facts and see Mitsukuni as a little boy.

The single rider line was slightly longer this time, but the ride was just as fun. They rode on Space Mountain four times before meeting the group at Buzz Lightyear. Mori was happy to see that Honey was having a good time. Mori smiled a wide grin. He liked the time he had with Kaoru and greatly enjoyed the magic of Disneyland.

KAORU'S ODESSY

Kaoru waited a few minutes to see Hikaru off on his trek before getting in line for Space Mountain. Hikaru was getting more courteous and sweet every hour that he was in Disneyland and Kaoru suspected that it had something to do with a certain tour guide. Steph talked with them constantly and told them a lot about Disneyland, but she was so sweet and nice, with a little bit of a devilish side. He couldn't imagine anyone else being this nice to them, and not even Haruhi had been able to tell them apart so quickly. She fit right in with the twins. Kaoru hoped dearly that they could be very close friends with Steph. She had great Disney Cosplay ideas for the twins and he was excited to try them. He even had an idea to dress Haruhi up in Cosplay. His plan started to form with this idea.

Kaoru was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't notice Mori ahead in line until a minute or two. Once he saw the wild type, he wasn't surprised to find him here at the coaster. He called Mori's name and waved to him. When Mori finally saw him, he let a couple of people pass him so he could stand next to the twin.

"Space Mountain, Mori?" The twin asked. "I thought you would go here. This ride has to be one of my favorites!" It was. Kaoru loved to stargaze and loved the mythology behind the constellations. He started talking to Mori about the great Hunter Orion, the history of the North Star, and other great constellations.

"I heard there was a dragon shaped one in the sky." Mori said once Kaoru had finished. This got Kaoru going again. He told Mori all about the dragon, Draconis, and the legend behind him. He went on to talk about Andromeda, Hydra, and Lupus. The ten minutes passed quickly and they were soon on the ride.

He screamed and laughed and gazed at the stars in wonder as the coaster took them on a very wild ride. He glanced at Mori and was so happy to see how relaxed the Wild type was as he exited the ride.

They decided to ride it again, and this time, Mori was doing the talking. He told Kaoru all about Honey's plan to get the two fools together. Kaoru's jaw dropped in astonishment. The plan was perfect, almost flawless. It would be Operation Baby-Sit! To think that Honey came up with this plan was even more perfect. It was a lot like one of the boss's strategies, but so much easier. Kaoru had to basically just keep the secret, just tell Hikaru and convince Steph to help. It was genius! The plan was set for it to commence on Wednesday.

They rode four more times, being separated in the single ride once or twice, which was fine. They met up with most of the group for a go at Buzz Lightyear, but Hikaru wasn't there yet. Kaoru was getting slightly worried about his brother, but knew that he was perfectly safe where he was. Even so, It was getting pretty dark...

Author's NoteSo, please bear in mind that the bit about the single-rider line is false, and to anyone in Disneyland this weekend, keep an eye out for a nerd wearing the clear backpack mentioned in chapter one! (yes we actually own that.) Also, please don't forget to R&R! I'm going to spend some time today to reply to some old comments, so if you want to chat, leave a comment!

~that's all!~
