  If someone had told Samara that their escape from detention would be led by the IvyRose Golden Boy, son of the Headmaster, Finnegan Chambers himself, she would have laughed in their face. Despite his best intentions, Finn stuck to the path consistently followed. He didn't stray from what was expected of him and obeyed orders without question. But something must have changed in him, because the release from their collar confinement combined with the reveal of escape vans was absolutely out of character for him. Even so, Sam couldn't help but appreciate his actions. She was itching for something to get her heart racing, and this provided the perfect opportunity for that. Outside of the vans, she slipped her hands into the front pockets of her denim shorts and waited for someone else to volunteer to drive. Low and behold, however, that wouldn't happen.
  
  "Me?" Samara repeated, hearing her name fall from Lyla's mouth. Surely they would have picked someone more responsible, like maybe Sebastian. But Dante quickly jumped into the driver's seat and grabbed the keys, holding them out for her to take. The shapeshifter stared at the silver metal for a moment, contemplating his words. He wasn't wrong. Part of the group was most likely high on who knows what, the others were maybe inexperienced or just didn't want to. And it wasn't like she minded, she had driven before. "Fine. But if I hear even one of you complain about my driving skills," she said, teasingly trailing off and letting them use their own imaginations as to what the threat might be. After all, it was common sense not to poke the bear.
  
  Grabbing the keys from Dante, she waited for him to move from the driver's seat before climbing inside. With everyone loaded and the doors closed, she put the key in the ignition and the van roared to life. "Oh, a theme park! Finn! Where's the nearest one?" Sam said with excitement, echoing the final option that Riley had rattled off. From his spot alongside Anita, he stuttered out an answer, and they were off. Sam navigated the roads surprisingly well despite a bit of traffic and slight road rage. After about 30 minutes of off-key car karaoke, swerving around slow drivers on the freeway, and asking Finnegan to repeat directions, she finally pulled into a parking spot in front of an amusement park. "Alright, everyone out! We're here." Climbing from the van, Samara slammed the door shut behind her. She stared up at the twisting rollercoasters and spinning rides in awe. "This is going to be amazing."

Finnegan Chambers.

  Everything in his mind was telling him to turn around and round, to corral everyone back to the detention room and act like none of this had happened. But instead, Finnegan squashed that voice and powered forward, leading the small ragtag group of some friends and some enemies towards the garage. As much as he loved computers and technology, something about controlling a vehicle on a road with others set off anxiety in him. And he didn't want to risk the lives of others while driving. Well, that and he just generally didn't like his control of technology being judged. Finn felt Dante clasp him on the back, turning to him in a bit of surprise. How he and Riley actually liked the shy nerd, he would never know. But the brunette valued their friendship and knew he would be incredibly lonely without out. Plus, they pulled him out of his shell, got him to see that there was more to the world than just what his father laid out for him, and Finn appreciated that.
  
  Hearing Miya's comments, he couldn't help but offer the blonde a timid smile. "Thanks, w-we appreciate your business," he responded, happy that his jokes were entirely lame and lost. Everyone began to slowly file into the van, with Miya and Sebastian in the back, Riley and Sam taking the front. Anita took a seat in one of the center rows. She looked rather annoyed, probably with Riley taking the front. Unsure if he was supposed to sit alongside her or not, Finnegan was going to make his way to the empty row of seats. However, he tripped over his feet, and ended up falling into the seat alongside her. "Err... S-sorry," he stuttered, a light pink blush tinting my cheek. Thankfully, he didn't fall into Anita, or his embarrassment would be much worse. Deciding it much more awkward for him to change seats once he was already seated, the brunette stayed where he was. Glancing at her, he sheepishly asked, "Are you excited for an ad-adventure?"
  
  Sam called for him from the front seat, asking for the closest amusement park. The Chambers had been in the area for a long time, Finnegan had grown up there. So it was only natural for him to know where to go. "Oh, there's a park about 30 m-minutes from here. South on the freeway," he responded, hoping his directions were clear. Sam immediately took off in that direction, and he couldn't help but feel excited. It had been a while since he had gone to the theme park. His mother had taken him when he was little, teaching him about the mechanics and physics of the rides there. However, after her disappearance and his discovery of his powers, his father would often take him to the amusement park to test his abilities. Headmaster Chambers believed that Finnegan would be more careful with real human lives on the line and take things more seriously. Little did he know how much he was traumatizing his son. Sam putting the van into park pulled him from his thoughts, and Finn found himself climbing out of the van. Maybe this was his chance to make some more positive memories there. He could only hope.

Lyla

loner

Lyla could tell by the look on Sebastian's face that he was surprised she was even going with the group, but he wasn't the only one surprised. Normally, Lyla would be content to just sit in the classroom, alone if she had to, but something was pushing her to get out of her comfort zone. A part of her knew that venturing outside of the school grounds was dangerous, especially considering she couldn't control her weather related powers. But if she never ventured outside of that box she'd made herself so comfortable in, she would never be able to control her powers. The last week, wearing that damned collar, had reminded her of this repeatedly. But now she was free of the collar, and maybe she was just 'riding the wave' of freedom, but she wanted to do it. She wanted to go with the others and see what life was like outside of these fucking grounds. It'd been so long, and if Finn was going to go, then by god she was going to go as well. She would respect Sebastian's decision if he didn't want to, but she just smiled at him before she grabbed her bag and left the room.

It seemed that everyone was content with the idea of Sam driving, so they started to pile into the van. Somehow Lyla ended up next to Dante, but honestly, it could be worse. If she'd ended up next to Anita, they might not have even made it out of the garage. As it was, Lyla and Dante were in the row after Anita and Finn, but thankfully, Anita was sitting in front of Dante. To her surprise, Sebastian showed up at the last second, and only Miya's cheering alerted the weather girl to his presence. Once everyone was in, the doors were shut and Sam started off. Lyla felt her spirits lift as soon as they left the garage, leaning forward some to look out of the window at the sky above. She knew it was the same sky as it was on the grounds of the school, but for some reason, she already felt different out here. Dante nudged her and she turned to look at him, seeing the look of shock on his face when he saw that she was actually smiling. He just shook his head and shifted back in his seat, leaving Lyla to shrug, glancing up at Finn and Sam when they started talking about a theme park, which had been Riley's idea. She'd never been to one, and the idea itself sounded exciting.

The drive there only took a half hour or so, and Lyla remained quiet during it. Once Sam parked the van in the parking lot of the theme park, the doors were slid open and everyone started to pile out. They could hear the shrieks and screams from within the park from out here, and Lyla felt her heart skip a beat. A set of hands landed on her shoulders and she snapped her head up, looking at Dante as he gently moved her out of the way of the door so the others could get out, too. "Don't worry, Ly. Those are good screams." He told her, laughing as he immediately headed to Anita's side, whispering something in her ear. Lyla made a face and turned her attention back to the large rides they could see, trying to suppress the shudder threatening to travel down her spine. Turning back to the others, her eyes jumped from person to person, a thought occurring to her. "How are we supposed to get in?" It wasn't like she had money, now that she thought about it. Surely it couldn't be cheap to get into a place like this. Had they really come all this way for nothing?

Dante

loner

Dante wasn't surprised when Sam agreed to be the one to drive, and once she took the keys from him he swung out of the driver's seat to get in in the back. He ended up next to Lyla, quirking an interested brow at Finn as the nerd got in the van and fell into the seat next to Anita. "She's hard not to fall for, am I right my good man?" He grinned at Finn, leaning back in his seat as Sam started the van and they were off. It wasn't until they were a few minutes out of the garage that he looked over at his sister, seeing that her back was to him. He leaned closer to her, nudging her, prepared to say something to make her laugh. But to his surprise, when she turned around, she was already smiling and he couldn't help the look of shock that crossed his features. He ended up not saying anything, just leaning back in his seat, enjoying the ride. Sam was definitely the best driver out of the bunch of them, and likely the one to take all of their safety into account. Dante knew he would have been speeding to get away from the school, and plus with the drugs in his system, who knew what he might see on the road that wouldn't actually be there. When Riley asked where they were going, Dante wasn't quick enough to speak up, but he was definitely down for a theme park.

The ride past quickly yet also not quick enough, and Dante was ready to hop out of the window when Sam finally parked. Lyla got out after Anita and Finn, but she froze when she heard the screams coming from within the park. He laughed, placing his hands on her shoulders and moving her out of the way. "Don't worry, Ly. Those are good screams." He grinned and moved to Anita's side, taking her arm and leaning down to whisper into her ear. "Not as good as the ones I get from you, but we can worry about those later." He grinned and kissed her cheek before he straightened, clapping his hands together in his excitement. Lyla asked a good question, though, and Dante frowned for a moment as the last of the group got out of the van. And then he had it. Snapping his fingers, he turned to pull Anita into his arms, his signature grin already appearing on his features. "Anita can get us in. I know you have daddy's credit card on you; you always do." He winked at her, looping their arms together as he started confidently towards the gate. There was definitely enough credit on that card to get them all in, and give them a damn good time.

The others filed along behind them, or at least, Dante figured they would. Reaching the gate, he nudged Anita forward so she could swipe the card and get them all tickets. Once the beautiful Latina had done so, they moved on to the entrance gate, presenting their tickets to the girl there and then being let into the park. There was a beautiful fountain there in the middle of the entryway, and Dante smirked as he stepped towards it, peering down into the depths. "Ooh, there's money in there." He saw all the change in the fountain, but he couldn't reach it even with his long arms unless he wanted to get in there, and he wasn't trying to do that. "Alright, gang." Turning around to face the others again, his eyes lit up as he looked around at each of them. "So, who here doesn't ride roller coasters? Too fucking bad, you're riding them today. We should stick together, I think. That way no one gets lost." He shrugged. "Maybe a buddy system?" Grinning again, he pulled Anita closer to him, leaning down to press a kiss to her lips. "I found mine. Where to first, bitches?"

Miya Swan

Mood: exciteeeeeed

Location: amusement park

Outfit: click and click!

Interactions: Sebastian, Finn MadiRaiCat , everyone

Although she did not mind the detention, Miya was ecstatic that she got to go on an adventure with her new friends, if she could call them that already. Sure, they did start on the wrong foot but Miya was not a person to hold grudges. After seeing with her own eyes that one’s life could change in a matter of seconds, cease to be even, she couldn't care less for petty beefs with others and that whole ego game. She even understood where Anita’s jealousy was coming from (Dante was one hell of a handsome boy after all), making Miya not hold Anita’s little fireball attack against her.

When everyone was finally aboard the fancy school van and ready for something exciting, it was time for the bunch to figure out what exactly that was gonna be. Riley made a few great suggestions, making Miya even more excited about their little trip whatever the choice would be in the end. “Ah! An amusement park! My weakness! I swear you are today’s MVP, Finn” Miya squealed in joy and shot an excited, wide smile Sebastian’s way.

The ride was awfully quiet, but thankfully relatively short. Right at the gate, Lyla made a valid point about how they were going to get in when they all were just students with no regular source of income other than their parents, or adoptive parents in her own case. Luckily for them, Miya was pretty sure Sebastian had his father’s credit card on him, providing an elegant solution to their situation. What she did not know and what caught her by surprise was that there was one more person with the same benefit. It was her little Latina friend and she really outdid herself when she paid for all the tickets without any opposition.

The inside of the amusement park was huge and flickering with all the light combinations one could think of. Mesmerized by the different attractions that were calling Miya’s name, she really had to fight hard to keep at least some portion of her senses on what was going on in the group. “WHOA! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! IS THAT THE TIME TRAVELER?!?!” she burst out suddenly, pointing at one of the rollercoasters behind Riley, her eyes wide as ever. “THE TALLEST, FASTEST, STEEPEST SPINNING LAUNCHED ROLLER COASTER IN THE US?! Y’all, I don't know who my buddy is for today but they better start moving because I am going” she said and started jogging towards the most exciting ride of her life.

Sebastian Pierce

Mood: neutral

Location: amusement park

Outfit: click!

Interactions: Lyla apolla

Sebastian did not really know when and how it happened that his sinister plan of ratting the detention crew out to the principal ended up with him joining them on their little jailbreak but one thing was for sure, there was no going back at that point. Not when he had Miya’s arms tightly wrapped around his arm. It was obvious that not everyone in the van was content with him joining but if they knew him at least a bit, they would know he did not care at all about whether these foolish children liked him or not. And judging from Lyla’s actions from a while ago, he was on the good side of at least one more person that was not Miya.

The ride to the amusement park subjectively took ages and Sebastian could not be happier to finally get out of the car once they arrived. Although Sebastian was born and raised there in the same city the amusement park was in, he had never visited it before. His childhood was not exactly fun and games, more like blood and sweat with his father constantly dragging him from one fighting practice to another, compliments to his “gift”.

Once Lyla realized they did not have sufficient funds for getting in, it seemed like the group thought it was game over for them. Luckily for them, Sebastian had his credit card on him, the one his dad created on his name and that pretty much had a bottomless limit, and just out of curiosity about what was going to happen, he was willing to take care of the tickets for the rest of them. However, before he could offer his help, Anita beat him to it.

The inside of the amusement park seemed pretty underwhelming for the overpriced ticket they just paid at the cashier, making it easy for Sebastian to keep the frown on his face. When Dante suggested a “buddy system”, Sebastian scoffed at the thought of playing friends with anyone from the group. Pondering about his choices, he felt someone’s elbow pushing against his back, making him lose his balance and bumping into Lyla. “It seems that Sebastian has picked Lyla,” he heard Miya say, certain it was her elbow he felt just a moment ago. What exactly she was thinking when she thought she was actually gonna successfully set him up with Lyla was beyond him, just like most things that Miya did.

“Yeah, whatever, why not, I guess” Sebastian replied dryly to the remark, not even realizing that it would be appropriate to apologize to Lyla for crashing into her. Hearing Miya’s high pitch when she saw the time traveler roller coaster, Sebastian knew it would take heaven and hell to stop her. He had heard it many times before and it always meant that she was going to get what she wanted even if she was to die trying. “Let’s better go after her or she is going to ride that thing on repeat until she throws up. Trust me. I have seen it before,” he sighed and looked at his buddy for the day, seeking her approval.

Anita

bitch

When Ani’s attempt to take the passenger’s seat was thwarted by overzealous Riley, she then took the next one, right behind the driver and waited for Dante to join her. However, imagine her surprise when someone else landed in that seat. Poor Finn had one of his moments and Ani didn’t mind at all. His cheeks colored in pink and while the Latina was always much more occupied by different kind of guys, like Dante, for example, Finn looked so adorable at this point. “Look at that. Falling to my feet already?” she grinned at the boy and shifted in her seat to face him fully. “Yeah. I’m excited. This was an amazing idea, Finn. Honestly, I never knew you had it in you so kudos.” she smiled at him, resting her hand on his wrist.

Dante added his two cents but before Ani was able to say something to make the situation less awkward, at least for Finn, the question of where to go arose. Riley named several options and honestly, the theme park was definitely the best choice. Finn leaned a bit to the front to offer instructions and Ani just made herself comfortable for the whole ride. Her neck was still rather sore from the collar but she wouldn‘t complain since it was finally gone. And while there were still marks all over her neck, not the pleasant ones Dante would put there occasionally, she was happy for the turtleneck covering it all. And though it was not the piece of clothing she would usually choose to wear, it was the best in the present situation.

Once the car stopped in front of the park, the whole group littered out of the van and looked around. The air was already filled with screams of joy and excitement from different roller coasters and other attractions and a grin appeared on Ani’s matte lips. “This is gonna be so awesome.” she giggled just a second before Dante pulled her closer and whispered in her ear. That grin became even wider at that point but she still nudged him in the stomach a bit just before he pulled away from kissing her cheek. The question of payment arose and once again, Dante was quick to react, pulling her in his arms as he called out how she could get them in.

Nodding with that ever-present grin, Anita walked towards the gate with Dante. Buying eight tickets was no problem when all she had to do was swipe the card. “There you go! Courtesy of esteemed Senor Villareal. Enjoy, sweethearts!” she exclaimed and put the card away. They all got a nice colorful wristband as proof they really paid for the tickets and got in. The gang moved around and Dante apparently assumed the role of the leader on this trip. Though to Ani, he rather reminded of the teacher trying to contain his pupils. Of course, she was not going to tell him that.

Proposing a buddy system, he pulled her closer and kissed her to which Ani squealed a little but then went with it, wrapping her arms around his neck. “You wanna be my buddy?” she purred but then Miya squealed and Ani looked over where the blonde was running. “Yeah, let’s try that one. So much for your instructions, hun. You’d fail as a teacher so much.” the brunette laughed and poked her lover in his abs.

Riley

rebel

Before anyone else could even attempt it, Riley claimed the shotgun and jumped into the passenger seat. The best seat in the car like ever. He was not going to sit in the back and since Sammy was driving, he had even fewer reasons not to sit here. It also gave him that important feeling which was not exactly important to him but still, he was in the front so it kinda made him a leader, right? Well, of course it didn’t but the boy could dream, right? And while he would immensely enjoy driving, especially when high, it was not written in the stars for him. However, he did wonder what could go wrong. He might have been high but he also controlled metal. Car was metal. He would have been perfectly fine guiding the vehicle to wherever they decided to go.

And that was the next question they needed to figure out. They escaped, they had a van, the freedom was within reach. What to do with it now? The rebel thought for a moment and then presented several options, theme park among them. Apparently, that was the bullseye as everyone got so excited. Miya was even squealing in the back. “See? I gotchu!” he pointed a two-finger gun at her and turned to face the road. “Move into the other lane, Sam. And go faster, you’re driving like my grandma!” he then poked the driving shapeshifter and only did it on purpose to poke her. He didn’t care how she drove at all.

The drive really wasn’t long and soon enough, Riley found himself piling out of the van to join the others. “Woo!” he yelled, slamming the door after him. “I love you for this whole prison break idea, Finnster!” he hollered and bumped Finn’s arm with his fist. Screams, laugher and yelling accompanied by buzz of the crowd and smells from the street food trucks was creating the whole atmosphere which Riley was soaking in. This was exactly what he lived and breathed for. The question of tickets occurred to him at the same time as Lyla asked it but apparently, that was not going to be a problem since Dante promised Anita would pay. And damn, she did.

“You got yourself a nice one.” he grinned at Dante, clasping his back as they all walked inside and received their bands. “Tell daddy we appreciate very much.” he nodded towards Anita and looked around. He was getting totally overwhelmed by the whole place and just by looking around for ten seconds, he already saw at least three things he knew he needed to ride. Dante tore his train of thoughts by speaking again and the feeling was only strengthened by another set of Miya’s squeals. “Buddy system…right…” he mumbled and grabbed Sammy’s hand. “Come on, cougar. I dare you to ride that with me. If you’re not afraid, of course.” he smirked and dragged the aqua-haired girl towards the same roller coaster Miya was running to.
