Zack jumped for joy as Dash finished signing him into the Entertainment Center. He looked overjoyed to be there.
"Alright, he's in good care," the receptionist said.
"Have fun and behave yourself, Zack," Dash smiled.
"I will," Zack nodded.
Zack followed a worker into the center. Dash and Cole and walked out, looking at a map of the Resort.
"Where to, Dash?" Cole asked.
"I don't know," Dash shrugged. "It all looks cool. What do you want to do?"
"There is an interpretive trail we could try out," Cole pointed to the map.
"Sounds cool," Dash said. "There is a petting zoo between here and there, though. Can we stop there first?"
"Of course, let's go," Cole smiled.
They started walking, Dash looking at the map and trying to plan out the day.
"So, we'll check out the petting zoo, then do the trail," Dash listed.
"That will make it about lunch time," Cole said.
"Really?" Dash questioned.
"Yup, if we go all the way through the petting zoo, which I think we will," Cole smirked.
Dash laughed, nudging him. She looked back down at the map.
"The movie theater is near the lunch area, and they have a movie at 2," Dash said. "We could watch that."
"Trying to be romantic?" Cole teased.
Dash's face turned bright red, Cole nudging her.
"Shut up," Dash moaned.
"I'm only kidding," Cole laughed. "You went bright red. Like, more red than Kai's gi."
Dash rolled her eyes, hearing Cole laughing his head off. She looked up and saw the petting zoo before them.
"There's the petting zoo," she pointed it out to Cole.
Cole nodded, seeing it. They quickened the pace and raced to the entrance. They showed their Resort passes and were giving wristbands for access. They walked in, looking around at all the animals around them.
"Sheep, goats, horses, look at everything they have here," Dash admired.
"Come check this out," Cole told her.
Dash turned, seeing Cole by a reptile building. It was early in the morning, so it was rather quiet. She walked in, following Cole. Although you couldn't touch the animals, you could see turtles, lizards, chameleons and more.
"Why, hello there," a voice said.
Cole and Dash turned, seeing a worker there.
"Enjoying yourself?" he asked.
"Yeah, it's really cool," Dash smiled.
"We have some snakes that you can hold, if you are up for it?" he smiled.
"Sure," Cole replied.
Dash and Cole followed the worker, leading them to another part of the building. There was a family with two young kids with them there. One held a lizard of some sort in her hands while the other played with a snake. Cole and Dash paused to watch the kids, laughing. Then turned to see the man walking back over with a small, long snake with a tan skin with large, reddish brown spots along it's back.
"This is my friend, Max," the man said. "He's a Milk Snake and super friendly with people. Want to hold him?"
"Cole does," Dash volunteered the black ninja.
Cole chuckled, rolling his eyes.
"Sure, let's do it," Cole shrugged.
Then man carefully removed the snake from him and set it on Cole's shoulders. Cole smiled, watching it slither around slowly on his shirt.
"It's different not having them try to kill me," Cole chuckled.
"Why's that?" the worker asked.
"The Serpentine," Cole shrugged. "They were kind of evil against us before so."
"I see," the man said. "Well, Max likes you at least."
Cole looked down, seeing Max moving towards Dash.
"I think he prefers you, Dash," Cole chuckled.
"Would you like a turn?" the man asked.
Dash's eyes widened, shaking her head.
"Scared?" Cole teased.
"Am not!" Dash retorted.
"Are too," Cole mocked. "Or else you would do it."
"I can and I will," Dash said.
Cole handed Max over to Dash, and she realized what she had just done.
"I will get you for this," Dash grumbled.
Cole chuckled, smirking.
"Bring it, Kirra," Cole smirked widely.
"You did not just go there," Dash glared at him.
"I totally did," Cole smirked.
"How do you even remember that?" Dash asked.
"It is the only thing I remember from it," Cole sighed. "Worst time of my life."
"No kidding," Dash sighed.
They talked for a little while, then continued along their way. Near the exit to the zoo, they stopped again to check the way to the trail. As they were about the leave, someone screamed.
"Maddy! Get out of there!"
Cole and Dash spun around to see a young girl, no older than six, fallen into a goat pen. A goat began going wild, jumping, kicking and attacking from the chaos.
"Oh no!" Cole cried.
He darted towards them, Dash close behind. The little girl had gotten up and was running towards her parents at the fence. The goat was right in front of her and kicked her in the stomach. She screamed.
"Everyone back away!" a worker yelled.
As people were being forced back, Cole ran right past them and jumped the fence.
"Sir! Get out of there!" the worker shouted.
"Cole!" Dash cried.
Cole grabbed the goat's back legs as it went to kick again. It broke free from Cole's grasp, turning to face him. It lined up and charged at Cole. Cole Grabbed it by the horns, stopped it in it's tracks.
"What is he doing!" the worker shouted.
"Dash! Get the kid!" Cole shouted.
"On it!" Dash yelled back.
She jumped to fence, landing in the pen.
"You can't go in there!" the worker shouted at her.
"We know what we're doing, sir," Dash replied calmly. "We can handle it."
Dash turned, seeing the goat free from Cole again. Cole had forced it away from the girl, who sat near the edge of the pen, crying and holding her stomach.
"Hurry, Dash!" Cole shouted.
Dash ran to the little girl, kneeling next to her in the mud and waste.
"Let's get you out of here," Dash told her.
Dash picked up the little girl, who gripped her tightly. Dash moved towards the fence she climbed in over. As she got closer, the mother pushed through the crowd, running to the fence for her daughter.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you," the mother said repeatedly.
Dash handed the mother the young girl, before starting to climb the fence. She turned, looking up to see Cole about to run to them. Then she saw another goat, angry and ready to charge at him.
"Cole!" she shouted. "Behind you!"
Cole looked at her confused. He spun around, seeing the goat just before it plowed into him. Cole fell to the ground, both angry goats ready to pound him to bits.
"No!" Dash shouted.
Then she did something he hadn't done before. It shocked everyone. As she ran towards Cole, a dark purple tornado broke out around her. She scooped up Cole, getting them both out of there to safety. The tornado died away, leaving a startled Cole in a worried Dash's arms. Both coated in mud and goat waste.
"Are you OK?" Dash asked, setting him on the ground.
"Muddy, stinky and a little confused, but yeah," Cole replied.
Dash sighed in relief. Then everyone started cheering. Dash spun around, seeing the crowd celebrating.
"You did spinjitzu."
Dash turned, seeing Cole smiling at her.
"I did, didn't I," Dash smiled.
Dash helped Cole to his feet, both laughing at each other.
"I honestly think that is enough excitement for today," Cole said to Dash.
"More like enough excitement for a week," Dash replied. "I need a shower."
"You and me both," Cole laughed.
As everyone scattered, the mother thanked them again before they left to go clean off in the hotel room. So far, they had played with snakes and goats, and had a muddy save. Not to mention this day was only starting. It wasn't even lunchtime yet.
