Maisie said, “Yesterday, Zinnia and | ran into sidiots. We totally handled them. You guys have no idea- Zinnia
just waved her hand, and they all fell down like bowling pins. It was so funny!”
Maisie quickly told everyone what happened yesterday, but she didn’t say what Neo had said. Ethan said
excitedly, “Maisie, you're totally awesome. That's how you handle them. Zinnia is super cool too!”
Ethan joked, “Zinnia, make sure you always carry lots of that special powder. Next twe meet any idiots, we'll
just throw it at them.”
“Maisie, you just want to show off how great Zinnia is,” Brian said.
“Hey, you really get me!” Maisie leaned over and playfully slapped Brian, smiling. “Zinnia is seriously amazing!”
Lydia’s eyes flashed cold when she heard Neo wanted to do something against Zinnia. ‘Neo, huh? she thought.
Talking and laughing all the way, the group reached the amusement park. They already bought VIP tickets on
their phones, so they could skip the lines and go straight inside.
The amusement park was huge, full of lots of rides and shows-more than enough to keep them busy all day.
There were also different shows to watch.
Ethan checked his phone and said happily, “I looked it up. There's going to be fireworks and a dance show
tonight.”
Maisie said, “Great! We'll see the shows right after the rides.”
“Hurry up,” Maisie added, grabbing Zinnia with her left hand and Lydia with her right. “We've wasted half the
morning. If we don’t start now, we won't have enough tthis afternoon.” The group ran into the amusement
park.
“I want to ride the Pendulum Ride!” Maisie called out excitedly as Ethan and Brian hurried to catch up.
Maisie added, “I wanna ride that Drop Tower!”
Ethan said, “Maisie, you dare to ride that? If you freak out, don’t blus.”
Maisie scoffed, “Me, scared? Just make sure you're not the ones chickening out!” The group chased each other,
laughing and joking around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaisie asked excitedly, “Zinnia, which ride do you want to try first?”
They decided to start with something milder-the Pirate Ship ride. With the crowds packed everywhere, their VIP
passes let them skip the lines. After showing their tickets to the worker, they got on right away.
“Gotta sit in the back! That's where all the fun is on the Pirate Ship. Brian, you coming with me?” Ethan ran
straight for the last row.

“No way I'm sitting in the back. Safety first, Brian said, heading for the middle seats.
“Brian! Are we still friends?” Ethan teased. “You took the middle seat? That's the scaredy-cat spot! Don’t tell me
you're afraid of heights. | never thought I'd see the day you had a weakness like that.
Ethan, sitting in the back row, looked at Brian with wide eyes, acting annoyed. “Really, bro? You leftfor the
safe spot?”
Brian stayed in the middle seat, buckling up without moving. Ethan just let out a loud frustrated sigh.
Maisie asked, “Zinnia, which row do you want to sit in? You're not afraid of heights, right?”
Zinnia looked at the back row, which was still hanging in the air about ten feet above the ground before the ride
even started. Feeling a bit nervous, she said, “Maybe I'll sit more in the middle.
It was her first ton this ride. Seeing the big pirate ship swinging so high, she felt a little scared. But sitting in
the middle seemed boring.
“Lydia, what about you?” Maisie asked.
“Ill sit somewhere in the middle too,” Lydia said.
Ethan and Maisie took the second row, while the others sat a bit closer to the middle. Brian held the safety bar
tight. He valued safety over thrills, steady as ever.
Ethan and Maisie chatted happily in the back, both super excited.
As everyone else got on, the worker outside said loudly, “Please put on your seatbelts and hold on tight!”
“Harness,” Zinnia whispered, reaching down to find her safety harness as the worker spoke.
“Here,” Lydia smiled, leaning over to pull the seatbelt from beside Zinnia and fasten it for her.
“Thanks, Lydia,” Zinnia said softly.
Lydia’s eyes curved into a smile as she clicked her seatbelt. “If you're scared, hold my hand,” she said kindly.
Their seats weren't the highest, but they were still pretty high up.
“If you're scared, you can hold my hand too,” Zinnia said quickly, gripping the safety bar tightly.
Just as they buckled up, the pirate ship started to slowly go up. As it moved up, Zinnia’s eyes got very wide. A
sudden feeling of weightlessness hit her.
Her heart jumped into her throat as the ship’s groans got louder. Zinnia couldn't help but scream, her hands
clutching the safety bar like a lifeline. Before she could breathe again, she felt another wave of weightlessness.
“Save me, Lydia!” Zinnia screamed in fear. She saw a camera click. She turned and saw Lydia holding up his
camera and taking pictures of her.
Her first instinct was to cover her face, but her hands were stuck to the safety bar. She couldn't let go. Her voice
shaky, she cried out. Before she finished, Lydia grabbed her hand on the bar.

“Don’t be scared,” Lydia's calm, gentle voice whispered in her ear.

As the pirate ship soared upward again, Zinnia As the ship went higher again, Zinnia couldn't help herself. She
let out another scared scream.
Ethan yelled, “Holy crap. Why is it so high? Someone help! I'm done with this ride. | want off right now!”
As the ride swung up again, Ethan in the back row was yelling loudly. After five minutes, when they finally got off,
only Lydia and Brian looked calm, while Ethan, Maisie, and Zinnia looked sick.
“Want swater?” Lydia opened her bottle and gave it to Zinnia.
“Thanks,” Zinnia took a sip; her face was still pale, but her eyes sparkled happily.
‘That was so much fun!‘ Zinnia thought.
“Who wants to ride that crazy spinning roller coaster next?” Ethan asked, just after finishing the pirate ship ride
and looking at the long, twisty track nearby.
“I'm in!” Zinnia’s eyes lit up with excitement.
“Let's do it! We're riding everything today. No one chickens out,” Maisie said. Lately, she had been trying not to
swear when she was excited, just to avoid Yannis taking away her allowance.
“We've got to try the Eye of the Storm, the Pendulum, and the Whirlwind Chairs. They all sound crazy!” Ethan
said eagerly, excited to try.
Brian's lips twitched. ‘Such a scaredy-cat, but he just can’t resist a thrill," he thought.
“Let's go!” Ethan grabbed Brian, who quickly pulled Zinnia along. Zinnia reached for Lydia, who then held hands
with Maisie. The five of them made a chain and ran forward.
In the sun, the five ran ahead, their energy shining as bright as the sunlight.
