Getaway

[20] Mad Rad Fair

It happened to be the very night the girls were partying in Phoenix's apartment, throwing Jack Daniels and vodka at each other and getting silly drunk... that Leya's parents had taken her to the fair at her hometown in Bristol. Thinking she had been missing out on a normal secondary school kid's life with all this holiday and press coverage and celebrity attention, they decided to treat her to going out with some of her friends from school, to reassure her that life would go on. Little did they know...

The next day, Jayla, Sapphire and Aspen along with Blu, Phoenix and Raven would be getting a plane from LA to England to meet up with Leya and as a crew of pirates united, attempt to rob money out of the back of a Dance Dance Revolution machine with a faded unicorn sticker on it, and then run for their lives with over £100,000 worth of cash in a black bag. Funny that.

When Leya got home, she logged on to Facebook. Sapphire and Aspen had logged on as well on Phoenix's laptop again. Talking to her went something like this...

Sapphire: yeah we've got to get 30,000 before the 15 days are up T.T

Leya: uh oh :c

Sapphire: but wait, was there a dance machine?

Leya: what/ at the fafiar?

The girls wait till everyone has left the fair.

First they lift away the backing to the arcade, by taking out the tent pegs, and laying the plastic red and white stripy tent sheet quietly on the grass. They are all wearing rubber gloves and are dressed entirely in black with dark glasses. Aspen is carrying a torch, and the other three hold the screwdrivers. Cutting to the chase, they carefully begin unscrewing the machine. The back falls off with a clang. Now they know they have woken someone at the fair from their bunk in their caravan. Quick! They shove all the money into a black bin bag and run off as fast as they can. For once they were lucky and don't get caught. They were the opposite side of the fair to the caravans.

Having reached Bristol Temple Meads Train Station, they get the next train to Wales and Leya gets her parents to pick her up from a street near her school, telling them she had a great time at the fair with her friends. Which isn't far from the truth. In the bag they also had Leya's clothes, and she changes back into them before her parents come to get her. Amongst her attire is the hoodie Raven gave her. As she puts it on she breathes it in. They all hug her goodbye.

From Cardiff station, they walk to the pier and there is Blu, waiting for them. Jayla is crying and Aspen is so happy just to see Blu happy... and Sapphire is happy that everyone else is safe and happy.

"Great! You did it! You got it!" he pecks them all on the cheek. "Tomorrow morning, first thing I'll put the money straight into your account, Jayla." Blu puts a hand on her shoulder and he feels her sigh in relief. "Oh and wow, you look mighty scary girls, so I suggest for the party we're gonna have tonight, you go get changed haha," he winks.

They all laugh at their rubber gloves and black hoodies and dark glasses. All of them honestly can't believe something actually worked out well for the first time in forever.

Jayla begins to strip right there and then on the deck, letting her clothes sink into the water as she chucks them over the edge.

Blu tries to stop her, but it's too late. Soon she is stark in her underwear, a little pink silk bow on the front of her pants.

"Where's Phoenix?" Jayla breathily mumbles somehwhat excitedly as they all step down to the bedroom floor of ship for what they think will be the final time.

"Aw, come on," says Blu looking at her in her pants and bra.

"What?" she giggles.

Blu slaps her ass, "You're mad! But that's okay. I mean, aren't the best of us?" he shrugs cutely.

"Yeah!" she throws her head back laughing louder than usual, and the black bin bag she's been carrying all night slips in her hands. A few shiny things fall out, catching in the light with little rainbow streaks. Discs.

CDs.

"What? Ooo, what's this?" Aspen ponders, bending down and picking one up.

Jayla models her cute lingerie, breathless. She can see Phoenix coming towards her.

"Why on earth?" laughs Sapphire picking one up too and examining it closely.

"BOO!" Screams Phoenix in all of their ears, dragging them off to party, and they drop the CDs and the black bag on the floor. As soon as they enter the room, Phoenix throws Jayla out in front of him. "Hey, Raven! Got a surprise for you!" Out on the dance floor, the silky parts of her underwear are glistening a bit under the rave lights.

"Uh oh," Jayla looks to Phoenix's sparkling eyes. What could it be that he had in mind?
