Our entire group could fit into one van. This one van was Midgar's version
of a Suburban called the 'Midgar Take the Soccer Team Out For Pizza.' I
hate Midgar product names. They should fire Mayor Domino for name
suggestions like that. I drove (hell yeah) and Tifa got shotgun (oh hells
yes), the next row had Aeris, Yuffie, and Marlene, the next row Barret and Dyne,
and the last row had the Turks. Mother ran around on the floor like an
animal. The Turks played the hit game 'Drunken Dead-Arms.'
"Ouch! Dude!" Rude yelled at
Reno. "You hit me in the chin I think."
"Dude," Reno responded," I was just
getting you back for when you hit me while trying to hit Tseng."
"Hey dudes," Elena said, "remember when
I tried to hit you and instead I hit me? Well, I got me back for doing
that. Pow! Right in the stomach!"
I love our new friends.
I still can't wait for the part of this journey
when we lose Marlene. She kept chewing up the seats and spitting them at
me. Then she chewed through her seat belt and ran around with
Mother. Barret no longer cared. He did call an exorcist using his
PHS, but aside from that, he gave up on Marlene at that very moment. The
highway out of Midgar was finally finished, so I took that all the way to Kalm.
In Kalm, the car was not calm. The group
consensus was that we were all hungry. I drove us through
'Monster-In-The-Box' and picked us up some burgers, and Mother a kid's
meal. Her toy was this plastic eyeball that could be hooked onto this
other thing and shot across the car when squeezed. It usually went about
two feet. Tifa was turning red 'cause she ordered a strawberry shake and a
strawberry was stuck at the other end of her straw, yet she continued to try to
suck it out. You should have heard the jokes Aeris made about this.
Foom! The flying eyeball strikes again!
Hey Barret? Can I have my eyeball back? It's the thing that just
landed in your lap.
From Kalm we took the other highway (lots of
highways were springing up around this area) and headed to the beach.
Playa Del Mundo... why had I never heard of this before? I don't think
many other people had heard of this before either. The road was
mostly empty. Except for this other car. I saw a bunch of people in
it with surfboards sticking out the back window, so I decided to speed up to
see who was in it. I pulled up along side it, and nearly had a heart
attack. The driver was none other than Cloud Strife. His
passengers? Six of the hottest bikini-clad women this side of the
universe. Tifa looked over and saw them all, and turned her head the other
way in disgust.
"What's wrong Tifa?" I asked.
"Don't you still like Cloud?" I prayed not.
"It's not just him," she said.
"It's the whole car. I stopped living with Cloud at the villa because
he wasn't paying any attention to me anymore. He was always hanging around
with those skanks. I know every one of those skanks too. I hired
them to work at the Costa Del Sol branch of the Seventh Heaven. I was
hoping every last one of them was incinerated by you guys. Apparently your
bomb just missed them on their road trip from one tropical resort to
another."
We'll try again then. Anybody have any bombs
on them?
"Come on Seph," Tifa said, "be
evil. Run that bastard off the road."
"What'll you give me if I do?" I asked.
I'll give you an eyeball! Here. Shoom!
"I'll give you, umm...."
"Offer him a date," Aeris said.
"Guys love that. They'll do anything for a date."
Did I ever mention how much I love Aeris's ideas?
She's brilliant.
"Okay," Tifa said. "If you do, you
can go on a date with Aeris."
"What!?" Aeris said confusedly.
"Done and done," I said, not listening to the
Aeris part. I swerved our giant car to the left lane and drove Cloud off
the road, into some soft dirt. I was planning on him just spinning out,
but instead, he slammed on his brakes immediately after hitting the soft dirt,
then his car hit a larger lump of dirt and flew into the air, back first, then
front, then back, as it did three front flips before landing completely
upside-down with a sickening BLAM!
"Uh oh," I said, not meaning for that to
happen.
"Oh my god!" Aeris and Tifa yelled.
"Seph!" Tifa continued, "you weren't
supposed to go that far!"
"Oh my god!" the Turks yelled in
unison. "I can see the beach!"
After our car came to a complete stop, all the doors
swung open and everybody ran out. Aeris, Tifa, Barret, Dyne, and I ran to
help Cloud and the ladies out of the car. Mother and Marlene took pictures
of the accident. The Turks all stripped on the spot and searched the back
of the car (yes, while naked) for swimming suits. Miraculously, they found
some, put them on, and made a run for the waves.
