(A/N: I had a sneak peek of this chapter in the previous one, but since I got no response for almost a month, I got tired of waiting. So... here you go! Enjoy! I hope...)


An Epic Disney Day

Ch. 10


The group made their way through the park, trying to decide what to do next. "Why don't we take the monorail back to the entrance, and head to California Adventure?" MK suggested.

"Sounds good to me," Bomba agreed, "My legs are getting tired."

"Mine too," Mars nodded.

"I'm fine," Finn couldn't help but smirk.

"Well how nice for you," His future sister-in-law playfully retorted.

"It looks fun!" Venus beamed.

"There's a station nearby; let's go, guys." The green-eyed redhead started leading the group to the nearest monorail station.

"Hey, there's no line!" Nod pointed out. "That's convenient."

"Yeah," MK agreed, "This won't take long." They started running to the queue for the first place in line, not noticing that the twins were trailing behind.

Before they could try to get them to slow down, a huge crowd suddenly, and unintentionally shoved them away from the station until they didn't know where they were. "Uh oh," Venus whimpered.

"We'll be fine," Mars tried to be brave for her, "We just need to stick together. They ought to know we're missing before they get on that monorail thing." 'I hope,' She thought.

At the station, MK and the guys boarded the monorail, not realizing that they had two girls missing, and were about to get very far away from them. "Now, all we do is wait," She said after they were seated.

"Yep," Finn nodded as the monorail started moving, "What should we do first?"

"What all is there?" Nod looked at the map.

"Venus, what do you want to do first?" Finn asked his girlfriend, and was confused when he didn't get an answer. "Ven? Sweetheart?" He looked around, and to his horror, she wasn't there! "Venus! Oh man, she's gone!"

"So is Mars!" Bomba added with equal terror.

"Hey, driver! Stop this thing!" Nod yelled.

"Nod, no!" MK protested. "We can't jump down from this height! It's too dangerous! We'll just have to wait until we're at the next station, and then we'll report them missing and look for them ourselves."

Finn was leaning forward in his seat, face in hands, as he mentally kicked himself, over and over. How could he not make sure Venus and Mars would board this thing with the rest of them? He was the worst boyfriend ever. Next to him, Bomba was in the same state, his hand on his forehead. Why wasn't he paying attention? Now his girlfriend and her sister were by themselves at who knows where. He just hoped they were okay, and that they'll stick together. If they should separate, then it'll be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Or in this case, two.

If only they knew that the monorail was unintentionally taking them further away from their two friends.

Elsewhere, the twins wandered aimlessly without a map for guidance, ending up at the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. "Where's the nearest station?" Mars wondered aloud, trying to get some help. "Um, excuse me? Where's the nearest monorail station?" She tried to ask a family, but they spoke in a language she didn't understand, and left. "They don't speak English; okay."

"Can you help us?" Venus tried to ask a woman. "We can't find a monorail station."

"Use a map, kid," She coldly dismissed them.

"But we...!" She tried to explain that they didn't have one, but her efforts were in vain when the woman walked away. "Ohh."

"I guess we have to find our way to our friends by ourselves," Mars concluded, "We just need to stick together."

"Right." They headed down the path to the river, unknowingly away from their friends.

After exiting the monorail near Autopia, MK and the guys decided on an area to stop at and discuss what to do. "Okay, Finn and I will search for the girls," Bomba took over after they arrived at the statue near the middle of the park, "MK, Nod, you two stay here. We can't have anyone else getting lost."

"Okay," MK agreed.

"Right," Nod added, "Find my little sisters, and keep them safe."

"We will," Finn promised. After getting a couple more maps, he took charge. "Okay, I'll go over there," He pointed to the Tomorrowland area on the map, "And you go there, and the areas close by," He pointed to Frontierland, "Then we'll meet up again, and discuss where else to go if we don't find them."

"Sounds good," Bomba nodded, "Let's go." They then split up to look for their respective girlfriends, as MK and Nod stayed put at the statue.

"I hope they find them," MK expressed concern for the twins, "They could be anywhere, and this park is huge."

"I'm sure they will," Nod assured her, "The twins couldn't have gone too far."

Elsewhere, Venus and Mars were now in Critter Country, trying to find their friends. "Wish we had a map," Venus remarked nervously, "This park is huge; our friends could be anywhere."

"We're fine, Ven," Mars comforted her, "We just can't get separated, otherwise it'll be much harder for them to find us."

"Right," She nodded. They started running, eager to find MK and the guys. Unfortunately for them, things were only going to get worse from there. Venus crashed into a pole, without Mars noticing; she wasn't hurt, but in a daze as she sat on the ground. "Uh oh," She whimpered when she didn't see her twin sister anywhere, "Mars? Mars!" She looked around in the crowd, hoping for a familiar face, but had no luck. She hugged herself, feeling scared in the huge park, all by herself, surrounded by strangers.

Mars had made it outside of New Orleans Square, and in Adventureland, when she stopped for a breather. "Okay Venus, let's sit for a bit." It was then when she noticed that something was wrong. Where was she? "Venus? Ah, no! Venus!" She couldn't believe it! Now her little twin sister was out there somewhere, all alone? That was just great! "Venus!" She ran back to where she was previously, but her search efforts were in vain. She didn't realize that Venus was in an entirely different area, having ran right past her without noticing. The shorter girl was in Frontierland, while Mars was in New Orleans Square. "Sis! Where are you?!"

In Frontierland, Venus was still searching for her sister, and/or any of their friends. She wished she had a map on her; at least then, she'd know where she was! Everything looked the same! "Mars! Finn!" She called out. "Guys! Where are you?! MK? Bomba, Nod? Finn?" She walked in one of the stores to look for them, only for her sister to run right past the entrance without noticing she was in there. "Finn? Mars?" She meekly called out, her hope diminishing.

"Venus!" Mars yelled as she ran. "Bomba! MK! Nod! Finn!" She knew people were staring, but she didn't care. Finding her friends and sister was more important.

"Mars!" Bomba yelled for his girlfriend and her sister, as he ran in Frontierland. "Mars! Venus!" He stopped for a quick breather, then kept going. "Mars! Where are you?! Mars! Venus!" When he had to stop again, he saw a man staring at him like he had two heads. "Ne-need something?" He glared in annoyance through his panting. "My girlfriend, and her-her sister are missing." He then started running again without the man answering. "Mars!"

"Venus!" Finn yelled as he ran through Tomorrowland. "Venus! Mars! Oof!" He suddenly crashed into another person; he regained his senses, and saw the woman on the concrete. "Oh, I- s-sorry," He helped her up on her feet, "I lost my girlfriend, and her sister, and I'm trying to find them. Have you seen two girls with pale skin, and long black hair? One has green hair and eyes, and the other has red hair and eyes. They're about this tall." He held his hand parallel to the ground, up to his chest.

"It's fine. But I'm afraid I haven't; I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Thanks anyway." He then kept running, now being more careful. "Venus! Venus! Where are you?!"

"Bomba! Venus!" Mars kept running, ignoring the burning of fatigue in her legs. "Bomba!" She then settled with sprinting without yelling, hoping that her eyes would not play tricks on her. She quickly scanned the park patrons she passed by, but unfortunately, none of them looked familiar. Nonetheless, she kept going; she was not giving up. Although she wasn't watching where she was going.

"Mars!" Bomba scanned the crowd around him for his girlfriend as he ran, dodging people left and right. "Mars!" Venus!" As he sprinted, he wasn't exactly paying attention to what, or who, was coming up. "Oomph!" He yelped in surprise when his shoulder collided with another person, and he fell face-up on the ground.

"Ow!" Mars fell to the ground on her back as well, rubbing her sore arm that suffered a collision with another runner. Bomba looked up, rubbing the back of his head, and was shocked at who he had bumped into: His girlfriend! "Mars! Oh, thank God!" He took her in his arms, as she rested her head on his chest. People were staring at the couple knelt down on the concrete, but they paid no mind. They were just happy and relieved that they were reunited.

"I, this-this big crowd pushed me and Venus away," Mars explained what happened, "And then I, I lost Venus!"

"It's okay," Bomba comforted her, "Finn's out looking for her right now. He'll find her; I know it." They stood on their feet. "Come on." He led her back to where MK and Nod were waiting, now being extra careful to not let her get lost again. As they walked, Mars scanned the crowds they passed, hoping that she would find her twin sister, but to no avail, as he did the same. Of course, he was also making sure she wasn't going to be separated again.

After several minutes, they arrived at the statue where the two teenagers were waiting. "Mars!" MK stood up with Nod. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," She replied, "But I lost Venus while trying to find you guys."

"Now Venus is out there, by herself?!" Nod exclaimed fearfully.

"Nod, Finn's out there looking for her," MK assured her boyfriend, "She'll be alright with him."

They all sat back down on the bench, waiting for Finn to come back with Venus. "I hope she's okay," Mars whispered.

"Finn!" Venus shouted as she ran. "Mars! Finn!" Other park patrons were watching, and dodging her to avoid any collision, with her not noticing. To her chagrin and fear, none of the faces she encountered looked familiar in any way. "Finn! Whoa!" She yelled when she suddenly tripped and fell to the ground.

"Sorry there, kiddo," The teenage boy taunted her.

"I, I'm looking for my twin sister," She stammered, "A-and my boyfriend."

"You sure you're not looking for your mommy, little girl?" He laughed again, then left with his equally obnoxious friends.

Venus pouted as she stood on her feet, brushing off her clothes. "Jerks," She mumbled, and kept looking for her friends, sister, and loved one.

After several minutes of running, she couldn't go any further, her legs burning with exhaustion. "Okay," She panted, "I'll just... I'll just sit for a bit," She plopped down on a bench in Tomorrowland, "Hehe, sit bit; they rhyme." She ended up lying down on the bench, as she was the only one sitting on it; she curled up, and drifted off into a deep sleep, paying no mind to baffled onlookers.

"Venus!" Finn called out for his girlfriend. "Venus! Where are you?! Venus!" He was quite alarmed when he accidentally bumped into a small child, knocking him to the ground. "Oh! Oh, I'm so sorry about that! I didn't..."

"Are you crazy?" The father exclaimed as his son cried. "Why don't you watch where you're going, buddy?"

"I didn't mean to bump into your son! I swear! I, I just lost my girl..." He stopped when the father and son walked away before he could finish, "Friend." He huffed in exasperation, and kept looking for Venus, now being more careful. "Venus? Venus!" He was losing hope when he caught no sight of his love in the crowds. "Venus!"

He stopped in front of some benches to look some more. "Venus!" He turned around, and his heart jumped when he saw the girl he seeked on a bench, in a peaceful slumber. "Venus?" He knelt down, and saw no signs of harm. "Thank goodness," He whispered to himself, gingerly picking her up from her wooden makeshift bed, and heading to where the rest were, ignoring the staring patrons.

As he walked, the girl in his arms started to stir, getting his attention. "Mmm," Venus moaned sleepily, before he saw her beautiful green eyes open. She gasped lightly when she realized who was carrying her. "Wha-? Finn!" She lunged up and hugged him tightly, her arms around his neck, as he sat on the concrete.

"I was so worried about you," Finn held her tighter, his hand on the back of her head, "Are you okay?"

"I am now," She kissed his cheek, and snuggled in his embrace, "But where's Mars?"

"I don't know, but MK and Nod are by that statue. We'll meet them there, and if Mars isn't there with them, then Bomba will look for her." He swept her bangs from her face, his palm brushing her cheek, and stood up with her. "For now, let's get back over there."

"'Kay," She reluctantly agreed, and walked with him, her hand held tightly in his, "You think she'll be okay, if she's still lost?"

"She'll be alright," He assured her, pressing a comforting kiss to her head, "She can take care of herself, and Bomba ought to find her soon."

"I'm still worried, though."

"I am too, sweetheart," He rubbed her shoulder soothingly.

They soon arrived at the statue, where they were greeted by their relieved friends. Venus was especially happy to see Mars with them. "Venus!" They stood up, Mars greeting her. "Thank goodness Finn found you!" They shared an embrace. "What happened?"

"I hit a pole, and then I couldn't find you," The younger twin explained.

"Well now, I'm going to be much more attentive," Mars promised.

"Same here."

"Okay guys," MK stood up, "Now that we're all together again, what should we do next?"
