"Bungee!"

 

November 2007 - ShenLong

 

"Anyone see where Heero and Duo went?" asked Quatre when he returned from the trash can beside the popcorn stand where he'd deposited the evidence from his 'race track' victory - and purchased a large box of popcorn so his 'walk' hadn't looked suspicious.

 

"I think they went that way," replied Trowa and pointed towards the 'Human Catapult'.

 

Quatre looked across in the direction Trowa had pointed. It was hard to describe the ride; it looked like a sort of bungee jump, only the humans were strapped side by side from their chests to their calves. Then they were lifted off the ground and pulled backwards, feet first so that they appeared to be lying on their stomachs. Once they were quite a way up in the air, they were held momentarily before being released to shoot down and swing like a pendulum.

 

"Oh my," was all Quatre could say.

 

"Where's Yuy and Maxwell?" Wufei asked as he returned from the cotton candy cart, a mountain of pink, fluffy sugar in one hand and obscuring his face as he ate it.

 

"Ack! It's Relena! Save me Trowa," screamed the little blonde and promptly ducked behind his tall lover.

 

"It's not Relena, it's just Wufei," Trowa soothed. "See?" Trowa moved Wufei's hand to the side to reveal the familiar Chinese face - with a pink tinge to the mouth.

 

"Oh," said Quatre sheepishly, then his face changed to one of chagrin. "Honestly, Wufei. Couldn't you have gotten the blue cotton candy?"

 

Wufei smirked and continued to eat whilst pulling another bag from his pocket - this one had blue cotton candy in it.

 

"You'll make yourself sick," Quatre huffed.

 

Wufei just shrugged and continued to eat. He couldn't help it if he'd developed an addiction to the sweet stuff. "You didn't answer my question," he muttered around a particularly large mouthful.

 

Trowa pointed to the two humans that were now suspended in the harness, a couple of hundred feet in the air.

 

Wufei looked up and a smile lit his face. At that point in time, the operator let the 'catapult' go and the pair were launched forward.

 

They shot through the air like a bullet from a gun, wind and G forces whipping Duo's braid out from inside his shirt, skin flattened, adrenaline began to rush, screams and laughter pierced the air.

 

Back on the ground, three ex-pilots watched in awe as the two human 'cannonballs' whizzed overhead. They could hear laughter... and was that screaming?

 

"Just like Maxwell to scream like a girl," Wufei snorted.

 

"Actually, I think Duo was the one doing the laughing," Quatre said as he watched the pair swinging like a pendulum.

 

Wufei and Trowa blinked.

The ride came to an end, the operator releasing the 'victims' from the harness. Duo bounced up and down while waiting for Heero to join him.

 

"Wasn't that great, Heero?"

 

"I think I need a change of underwear."

 

Heero's reply was so quiet, Duo missed it. His enthusiasm though was still there. "Let's do that again, huh?"

 

A very pale looking Heero replied in a voice hoarse from screaming. "Over my dead body."
