Fame Crazy (Sequel to Strings Attached)

Chapter 193

Castiel looks around, only to find a very fake butterfly sitting out there. Okay, so this is an interesting ride.

"Their wingspan can range from anywhere from twelve inches to an incredible one foot. You could say they're the rulers of the jungle."

"The cringe is too strong," Dean whispers. "Let me out."

"Let me take your FastPass so I can ride again," Castiel adds.

"Alright, we're coming up on a beautiful waterfall that we here and the Jungle Cruise like to call Inspiration Falls," Natalie tells them. "You know why we call it that? Because if you stay here and stare at it long enough... it inspires you to leave."

They round a corner, and though things look shockingly similar, Natalie tells them they're now in the Kongo River in Africa.

"The natives here are super nice," Natalie adds. "They totally forgave me for that one time I crashed my boat into their tree. Okay, so it was four times, but who's counting? Oh, but don't worry, you're totally safe with me."

"Oh god," Castiel whispers. "I'm too young to die."

Dean scoffs. "Yeah, tell that to your fifteen-year-old self. I think he could use that."

Castiel just bitch faces him.

"We're coming up on one of their camps now," Natalie says, but when they arrive, they find themselves in front of an abandoned African camp. There are three weird boats out front, with a little shed in the back that looks like something you'd see in a cliché movie about Hawaii. "Hey, where'd you guys go? Did I scare them away? I'm not that scary, right? I mean, yeah, there was that one time I accidentally lit their house on fire, but that was a total accident!"

As they turn the corner, they sail by a tree with a fake snake coiled around it.

"If you look to your left, you'll see a boa constrictor," Natalie tells them. "They're known for strangling their prey to death. Don't get too close. He might develop a crush on you."

"These puns are so bad," Dean says, but he still laughs at every single one, so he clearly doesn't think they're too bad.

"Alright, guys, we're coming up on one of our camps," Natalie tells them. "We're just gonna stop over here and grab a snack; maybe a banana —"

Unfortunately for them, the camp has been raided by some very fake gorillas, who are climbing around the place.

"Okay, you know what? Let's take a rain check on that. Let's just keep on going. Now we're in the Nile river. It goes on for niles and niles and niles, and if you don't believe me, you're in d..."

A few people on the boat yell out, "Denial!"

"Oh, no, I was gonna say 'disbelief,' but yours is way better," she says. "I'm gonna have to use that one."

Soon, they see a giant elephant staring out into the water.

"Coming up is an African Elephant," Natalie tells them. "You can tell it's African because it's in Africa."

They float by another elephant, and then they find themselves by a large tan rock formation, and Natalie doesn't miss a pun here.

"I feel like a lot of people take this place for granite, but this thing rocks!"

"Ooh, a double whammy," Dean whispers, chuckling.

"Alright, coming up is a bunch of animals, but come on, who goes to a jungle to look at animals?"

"Literally everyone who goes to a jungle," Gabriel calls out.

"Alright, alright, enough from the peanut gallery," she says.
