-"Hey you two!" Cherry waved as she and the group approached the table.

Tim was now clinging to Hayden, his cheeks flushed red from the running.

-"Oh ... Well actually you're not entirely wrong MC." Cherry turned her head back, hoping to see the grown-ups, yet they were out of sight, instead, she could see small masses of random people.

-"Yeah, so we basically ditched them." Kiara muttered, blowing at a hair strand that intruded her vision. "They'll catch up soon enough ... Mandara said we feast before we thrive."

Cherry was thoughtful for a second and then she remembered:

-"Actually I think I know where they might all be, I saw a poster with the animatronics taped to a sign and there was this stage with lights and music blasting but we ran so it was all kinda blurry."

Tim pressed his face into Hayden's shoulder, as it appeared he had developed a phobia of those robots even without seeing them directly.

"Oh, those things, we never really liked them," Poland said, shaking his head, "MC and I saw them when we came here too, I especially don't like how they made robots of Poldara and Mandoria without permission. The only reason there were robots of Mandy and MA was because they gave the company permission."

"I don't know, I think my Honeysuckle looks pretty good in metal," MC joked, "and he can play the drums really well."

"Babe, you know very well that I play the guitar, not the drums," Poldara chuckled as the other adults arrived. MC made a smug face and the two kissed, then everyone sat down.

"Alright kids, go order something from one of the restaurants," Mandara said, "don't get too much junk food, I don't want any of you getting a sugar crash while running in the laser tag or driving any go-karts, got it."

C:

-"Aye!" Cherry and Tim spoke in one voice.

-"We'll stay here if you need us." Hatter told them and after rummaging through his parka he handed Cherry her phone which she had forgotten. "Ну идите теперь развлекайтесь по полной."

Cherry gave him a side hug, smiling from ear to ear, then tucked her phone along with the map.

-"Don't commit any crimes and stay out of trouble, got it?" As Luz said so, she was mostly addressing Kiara who only rolled her eye.

The children then skipped giddily in the direction of the sets of restaurants and small shops.

-"Okay, before we go anywhere, does anyone here have allergies or intolerances to a specific food?"Cherry asked the three.

Tim shook his head for a 'no'.

-"Well actually," Kiara raised her index in the air. "I am allergic to bees. So anything would be fine as long there are no bees in it."

Cherry squinted at her friend with a confused smile.

-"Kiara, nobody eats bees, what the heck."

-"Why, you humans dine on bats and tarantulas for some, so how am I supposed to know wherever you eat those bugs or not." Kiara shrugged.

-"... Okay, no bees. Noted." Cherry snickered. "Hayden, is there anything you'd recommend? Preferably without insects in it."

"Don't worry, this is not the type of country you'd find bats and bees in," Hayden reassured her, "and you already know where I'm going first, TO THE CHINESE!!!"
