DAYDREAMER

PART I: Welcome Aboard the A.U Voyager!

"Enjoy your trip madame," he smiled.

"Thank you!"

They all made their way back to the lounge again and sat down on the velvet couch, Jake stood waiting, patiently expecting them to move up.

"You can sit on the floor," Lucia scoffed, Magnus and Cynthia nodded, trying to sweep Lucia's pettiness to the side.

"Yeah, the couch is kinda full," Aiden shrugged, Jake rolled his eyes, he wasn't happy about it, but eventually did as he was told; sitting down on the floor.

"Let's not forget why we're on this boat, but I suppose, since we're here already, we should enjoy ourselves, this place is awesome," Aiden chimed, everyone agreed.

"I'm sure there's going to be a few things that we can do in this ship," Cynthia mentioned, "let's have a look," Cynthia picked up a guide that was resting on the table, "There's two restaurants, a playing field, a movie theatre, a shopping centre, arcade, opera hall, food hall and swimming pool"

"The arcade seems fun, we could go there first," Aiden said. "Depends, what do you reckon they have in the playing field?" Magnus asked, looking at Cynthia.

"The games they have in the playing field are football, basketball, billiards, snookers, tennis, table tennis, badminton, volleyball and dodgeball," She told them, "There are a LOT of options here man, but they only open once the ship leaves, which is in like 20 minutes"

"What do we do in the meantime?" Magnus asked. Jake stood up smiling.

"We could tell echother some jokes!"

"Yeah! Or we could... not do that," Aiden retorted "I guess we could watch a show in the meantime?"

"Why not, what's on?" Cynthia asked, grabbing the remote control from the table and flicking through the many channels that were airing. She found an interesting talent show that was currently on, which seemed to intrigue the group, all but Jake.

"I hate this show; can we watch something else?" He requested.

"We don't really care about what you want to watch, Jake," Lucia shook her head, "At the end of the day, we weren't planning on having you tag along anyway,"

"Fine then, I'll leave, I didn't want to watch TV anyways,"

"Just don't let the door hit you on the way out, they're very expensive," Cynthia said, still fixating her sights on the TV; Magnus suppressed a giggle. Jake stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind him and muttering obscenities as he rushed past them. They all let out a sigh of relief.

                                           ...

"I don't need them anyway," he grumbled as he stormed through the dim lit hallways of the vessel. Jake may be an objectionable person in their eyes, but he was good company in his own. It was a pointless charge into nowhere important, but it was away from his so-called brother and his pathetic friends. So much for blood being thicker than water, but how could he blame him, when mystery was so much thicker than both. A voice from behind him called out, he looked over his shoulder to see Magnus running after him. He stopped to catch his breath.

"How do you move so fast, damn it," he started, he flung his arm over Jake's shoulder and leant on him as he caught his breath.

"Get off my shoulder, what do you want?" Jake said impatiently, slapping away Magnus's arm.

"Oh, yeah, right... Just wanted to say that I hope there's no hard feelings between us, you need to give them a bit of time to cool off, they're still angry about the library situation,"
