A/N: Angelbach - this one is for you! I am so happy I am not alone in the rest of this journey!


Ward was stood in line with Tilly and Sarah. They were still bouncing around with excitement, making him smile, though of his feet were starting to ache. It had been a while since he to stand without moving very much. There was a sizeable queue ahead of them.

Slowly, much too slowly for the two excited girls, the queue dwindled and they found themselves at the front of the queue. when the ride had ended, and the people on it disembarked, Ward pushed the two girls ahead of him and climbed in the row behind Tilly.

The ride started off like a typical, indoor rollercoaster, however, within seconds, scenarios were being played out on the walls, and quite quickly, both Sarah and Tilly realised that the carriage they were on spun, turned and rocked to match what was being played out on the wall.

"Ha ha! Whoop!" Tilly called as their seat spun then 180 degrees, after what looked like a planet imploded.

Smiling, Tilly glanced at Sarah, who appeared to be enjoying the ride as much as she was. She didn't need to look at Ward. she knew he was enjoying it, but could enjoy, and withstand faster, crazier rides such as the Oblivion.

Fleetingly, she thought of Carl, and knew that he would not be enjoying the ride as much as Sarah was, but would probably go on it anyway for her.

Tilly was brought out of her thoughts by a sudden stop on the ride. followed by the lights coming on. She glanced at Ward, who looked back, a look of concern on his face. He shook his head and tried to lift up the restraint. He was as stuck in the ride as everyone else.

"Ladies, and Gentlemen. We have experienced a mechanical error on this ride, and as such, when you are released from your carriage, please follow the emergency signs to the exit."

"Well that sucks, I was enjoying that. It was like the tea cups meets roller coaster." Tilly remarked earning a chuckle off Ward, whilst Sarah asked "What are the tea cups?"

"You've never been on the teacups?"

"How about we go check out the test track?

"What's the test track?" Sarah asked

"I don't know, shall we go figure it out?" Ward through his hands to the side and shrugged his shoulders before he turned around and walked off.

"Frozen?" Tilly asked Sarah.

"Frozen." Sarah agreed, and the two girls turned and walked in the opposite direction.


Ward realised fairly quickly that the girls were not following him, and turned back to look for them. He could just see the back of Tilly's head disappearing in the crowd. He followed the girls to their intended destination. when he saw what it was, he groaned and headed inside. He didn't know what surprised him more, the fact that they had chosen the frozen ride, or the fact that they were waiting for him just inside.

"Well, you took your time." Tilly jibed at him, before leading them to the back of the queue. surprisingly, the queue moved quicker than they anticipated.

"You know the test track is meant to be one of the best rides here" Ward told them as they shuffled forward.

"We can do it next" Sarah promised.

Before they knew it, they were again a the front of the queue, and were a little surprised to find that the Frozen ride was a water ride, and that they would be riding in a Nordic style boat. When their boat got to them, Sarah and Tilly looked at each other, and pushed Ward in before them, despite him protesting. Ward glared daggers at Tilly and sat in the front of the boat.

Once they were safely in, and they were on their way, Ward started shifting his weight from side to side, which make the boat rock.

The boat meandered through some glow in the dark scenery, which depicted icy landscaped with animated characters singing, speaking and moving. their boat suddenly caught on a rail that started pulling them upwards through almost darkness before plunging them into the cold river once again. There was a splash at the bottom, but Ward was relieved when it wasn't enough to soak him through.

The ride continued in a similar vain, until they entered a well lit area, with someone helping them all out of the boats and directing them back into the Florida sunshine.

"That was fun" Sarah said.

"It was alright" Tilly admitted.

"I swear to God I will shoot Maria Hill and blame it on you." Ward told Tilly who simply laughed a response.

"So test track?" Sarah asked, after all, she had promised Ward they could do it if he did Frozen with them.

"I vote a break first. You know, have a drink, use the loo, walk on solid ground for a few minutes" Tilly said.

"Sounds like a better idea" Sarah agreed, whilst Ward took a map of Epcot out of his pocket and handing it to the girls, who promptly poured over it, trying to ascertain where they were, and also where the nearest facilities were. Ward tutted, took the map off Sarah, and turned it the right way up, immediately pointing to where they were, and where the nearest bathroom was.


Tilly and Sarah emerged from the Ladies room and looked all over for Ward. He had told them not to wonder off again, but when they had got outside, the girls could not find him. Eventually, Tilly looked at the map, saw where the closest place he could get drinks from, looked up, and through the throng of the crowd, she saw him buying them all a bottle of water. Seeing some boulders next to the toilets, Tilly took hold or Sarah's arm, and led her over to them to sit and wait for Ward to return.

"He really isn't anything like they tell you at the Academy." Sarah said looking into the crowd.

"You'll find that people only tell you what they want to tell you." Tilly responded.

"Yeah, but still, he is a freaking Legend at the Academy, and people are shit scared of him, which doesn't correlate to the fact that because your oldest brother was visiting, he brought you all the way across America to Disney World."

"Sarah. Christian abused me in the worst ways a child can be abused, and Grant has done his best to stop the trauma of that since I was a little girl. After Anthony sexually assaulted me and I punched him, it took weeks of nightmares of my childhood, so yes, he brings me to Disney World to prevent that from happening again."

"But now you could defend yourself. so what would you do if you did come face to face with him again?"

"First thing I would do is kick him really hard in the nuts, then I would break his nose." Tilly answered with a smile as Ward returned with the waters.

"Who are we kicking in the nuts?" he asked, Sarah's eyes wide in surprise that he had heard them over the crowds.

"Christian."

"Could just accidentally shoot him" Ward replied, holding a bottle or water to her.

"But weapons aren't allowed out of the Arena."


A/N: If you don't know. The Oblivion is a ride in the UK at Alton Towers. It takes you up in the typical fashion, then suspends you at the top of a very long vertical drop for about 30 seconds, before you then plummet back to earth and through a hole in the ground. The rollercoaster then continues in typical fashion... It's not for the faint hearted.
