Getting Closer (Part 1)

Start from the beginning
                                        

~At Lotte World~
Once the 3 vans stopped near the front entrance, all of us got out then they left to come get us later as we heading inside towards the ticket admission desk. Each of us paid separately except for me since Woozi was sweet enough to pay for the 2 of us together. After we made in, S.Coups grabbed a map so all of us circled around him.
"What should we do first?" He asked as he looked around at everyone.
"I think that we should go a couple of rides all together then we can split up in small groups of 2 or 3 for a while then meet up again for some food and stuff." Mel explained.
"I think that's a good plan! Are you all okay with that?" S.Coups asked as the rest of us nodded.
We spent a few minutes debating on what ride we should go on first, then we all agreed to go on some Bumper Cars since it was close by.

Since there was now officially 17 of us, we had to separate into 2 groups. Some of the members didn't mind waiting their turn because they wanted to let other kids go first. The first half to go first was us 4 girls, Woozi, Jeonghan, Mingyu, The8 and Wonwoo. The moment the buzzer went off to let us start driving, all of us and some other kids began to laugh whenever we crashed into each other.  After our turn was over and everyone got out of their cars, we went out the exit gate and stood by the railing to watch the others have their turn. Just like us, they drove around in all directions trying to hit as many people as possible. While we were watching them act like kids, some of us took a few videos because we couldn't let this opportunity slip by. A couple minutes later, their turn was over as well and once they came out to stand beside up, we looked at the map again to decide where to go next.
"We should go on the World Monorail next so we can give the girls a tour around the place." Mingyu suggested.
"Alright we can do that!" S.Coups agreed.
The guys lead us to the nearest station then we waited for the train to come by.

As it arrived, we waited an extra few minutes for some people to get off first so it was easier to find a seat. We made sure to sit near each other so we could have conversations through the ride. Woozi sat next to me while Wonwoo sat with Diana, Jeonghan with McKayla and Mingyu with Mel. The8 was the last one of us to get on board and when he looked around to find a spot, he immediately sat on the other side of Mel. Even though she was smiling on the outside, I could tell she was cringing internally because I'm sure she just wanted Mingyu to sit next to her. After everyone was sitting comfortably in their chosen spots, the train blew its horn and off we went. As we looked out to see the many rides Lotte World has to offer, we had a lot of various conversations going on at once that it was hard to pay attention to just one. Every area that we went by was more amazing than the last because it seemed like there was no end. We went passed the different floors in the main building which is called Adventure, then went out to a separate area called Magic Island. As we went around the entire place, S.Coups pulled out the map again and said,
"I kinda wanna go to the Dynamic Theater!"
The 4 of us girls all looked at him in confusion because neither of us knew what that ride was.
"It's pretty much like any theater room but this one is a VR experience and the chairs vibrate and move to make you feel like you're actually IN the movie!" Hoshi explained which made us super excited about it and we couldn't wait to get there.

About 10 minutes later, we stopped at the next station which was near the ride. So all of us got up from our seats and walked off when doors opened to head the direction of the ride. When we got there and walked inside, Mel, Diana, McKayla and I felt our mouths drop at how amazing the room was. Since we were the first group of people to arrive to the next show we were able to sit wherever we wanted. We decided to split ourselves again between 2 rows and our seating order was just like it was on the World Monorail. While we talked to each other to pass the time, we noticed more and more people flooding in to join the experience. Once the room was filled up enough, the big screen turned on. As everyone was getting ready to be put into the action packed virtual world, the screen played through the many companies names that supported the making of the film then started up.
"This is gonna be awesome!" I whispered to Woozi as he nodded in agreement.
