Inora waited eagerly outside the gates of the amusement park, watching the rides whoosh back and forth on their tracks, all lit up in preparation for the coming darkness. She was bouncing up and down with excitement, she’d been waiting all day for the sun to go down. That was the one problem a werewolf had when all their friends were vampires, couldn’t do anything during the day. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t the only problem but it was the biggest one that Inora had experienced recently. So in order to spend time with Violet, yet another vampire friend of Inora’s, she’d spent the entire day waiting impatiently in her hotel room.
Violet was the last stop on Inora’s visitation list. She’d seen Rosey and Ali already, though that particular visit had been a little scary. Rose wasn’t right, she was slipping away from them slowly and they desperately needed to find a way to get her back. However, for right now, Inora simply needed to forget about the crazed look on her friend’s face as she’d ranted in a public place about blood and gore. So she’d gotten in touch with Violet and invited her to meet at this amusement park, hoping that the rides would take her mind off of all the bad things.
So she had sat in her hotel room, trying to watch television and distract herself from the agonizingly slow-moving clock. About halfway through the day she’d gotten ready, putting on some white Capri pants and a bright orange tank top with little white wave designs all over it. Finally, the time for the sun to set had arrived and Inora hadn’t been able to wait any longer, she’d slipped on a pair of sneakers(can’t wear flip flops to an amusement park), rushed from the hotel room and grabbed a taxi and here she waited. She hoped that Violet wouldn’t be long, cause the rides were calling to her, she wanted so badly to jump on a roller coaster or the carousel. She’d even glimpsed the tea cup ride which was her absolute favorite, she loved spinning the cups super fast with her superhuman speed and just letting herself spin at amazing speeds. Watching the world blur around you just seemed to make everything all better always.
Her long blonde hair ruffled in the wind as her head swung back and forth between all the rides. The darkness was closing in now, the sun all but gone behind the horizon and the trees. Stars were beginning to poke their heads out from behind the clouds and the moon was glowing a little brighter than it had been during the day. The sounds of the night began, crickets chirping, birds silencing, high pitched screams of terror and joy coming from inside the park. Normal people would be shivering in what she was wearing now but Inora didn’t feel the chill, though she was smart so she had packed a little backpack with a jacket in it that also held her wallet and a book incase she’d gotten really bored waiting.
Inora sighed happily and turned back towards the parking lot to keep an eye out for her friend, she wouldn’t be hard to miss especially since Inora could smell her coming.

Tonight was the night that Vi was going to the amusement park to go see Inora . She was excited to A. See Inora since she hadn't seen her in a while and B. Go to a amusement park which she hasn't been to in years. She sat in her room waiting for the taxi driver to come pick her up . She stared at the window looking outside. She had on her Grey skinny jeans and a black sweater that said "To write love on her arms" . She also had on her bright Nike's with blue ,pink,green, and yellow with a black background on them. She loved those pair of sneakers for how bright they where . Her hair was in a tight ponytail except for her bangs so that when she went on rides her hair wouldn't go flying all over the place.
The taxi driver finally pulled up in front of the apartment complex and she got her keys , some money , her cell . She then walked downstairs and was out and into the taxi car. She told him where to go and looked out her passenger window as they passed by housed and streets . She loved just sitting in the backseat of a car ,watching the world go by.
She could do that for a couple of hours and it would put her at such ease that she’d sometimes fall asleep. Though this time was different since she was filled with excitement and was hyped up on pixie sticks and a chocolate bar. She started to think of all the rides , her favorite was Batman and El Torro. She remembered the first time she went on El Torro . She was with her cousin Maddy on a warm August day . She waited on line for an hour and we're very happy when it was their turn . They got in and Violet's heart started to beat faster and faster as they reached the first peak in the ride. They screamed their heads off as they went down the adrenaline pumping through their veins .
The taxi car finally came to a stop as they reached the park . "Thank you " She said as she paid the taxi man giving him a nice tip . She watched as he drove away and she was now left alone in the parking lot. " Now all I need to do is look for my perky looking blond friend " She thought as she started to walk around the large parking lot for Inora. She then saw her in white Capri pants and a orange tank top . "Is that her ?" She questioned herself she as she got closer to her she could sense that she was a werewolf. She smiled a small smiled and crept up behind her .
"Boo! " She said as she poked Inora in her sides.She then hugged her and said "I'm so glad to see you again! Though love aren't you cold in that clothing ? " She said as you pointed at Inora's outfit. Vi looked over at the gates of the amusement park and smiled "Let's go in now I'm dying to get on a ride! " The sugar was really kicking in .

Inora smelled vampire seconds before he felt a poke in her side and jumped at the word ‘boo’ spoken from behind her. She turned around with a huge smile and wrapped her arms around Violet with joy. She was so happy to see her friend again, too much time had passed, it was the same with all her friends, but that’s what came from holing yourself up in New Orleans with a man. Violet’s words made Inora’s smile widen, she sounded so worried about her. “Nah, I’m fine Vi. We werewolves have quite a thick skin. We don’t get very cold, unlike you vamps.”
Nora pulled away to take a look at her friend in return, the TWLOHA sweater that was twin to the one Inora had which they’d both gotten when they heard about the movement made her grin in memory. The bright sneakers drew her eyes down and she shook her head at her friends style, it looked great on her and her hair was wisely drawn back in a ponytail. Inora noticed the wisdom of this hairstyle and flipped her head over to draw her own blonde locks into a high, tight ponytail.
Straightening back up, Inora reached into her back pocket and pulled out two passes that she’d gotten through Blackwell’s PR department. She handed one to Vi and then reached into her other pocket and grabbed two wristbands that were the way the amusement park did their ‘fast pass’ program. These wristbands would allow them to move to the front of any line, not that there would be long lines at this time of night. She held one out to Vi and then clumsily secured her own around her wrist.
“Alrighty, so we have our passes, and we have our ticket to the front of every line, I think we’re ready!” She slid her arm through Violet’s and led her towards the entrance to the park. They gave their passes to the people waiting there and stepped into the brightly lit, noisy park. Directly to their left was a carousel and Inora pointed to it, in a silly mood, and suggested that be their first ride.
The carousel had the typical horses and bench seats to ride, it was incredibly beautifully decorated and Inora though it would be a nice easy way to start off their night. Just a quick twist around the carousel and then they could move on to bigger and better things. However, she wouldn’t be adverse to going to the ride to their immediate right either.
That ride was a drop tower, a tall column of steel and bright lights. It pulled a group of people to the very height of its tower and then dropped them after a couple seconds, hurtling them towards the ground only to rise again to the top and repeat this until finally subsiding onto the ground and letting its victims disembark.
Inora would be fine with either ride, it was up to Violet to pick which she’d rather go on. They would have plenty of time to try out all the rides in the park.

“Nah, I’m fine Vi. We werewolves have quite a thick skin. We don’t get very cold, unlike you vamps.” " Ahhh I sees " Vi replied as she watched Inora flip her head to pull her hair into a high ponytail . Vi took the pass that Inora gave her . She wondered how she already had the passes but then realized that Inora was part of the Blackwell pack and she wouldn't be surprised if she got it from them . The pack always had passes to places such as these. Then a thought crossed Violet's mind. How the hell did they the pack get these passes in the first place ?
“Alrighty, so we have our passes, and we have our ticket to the front of every line, I think we’re ready!” Inora said happily . Violet put on her wristband onto her arm as her friend linked arms with her as they entered the park . They passed to the front of the line and into the park , which really pissed off the people on line but Violet didn't care . She chuckled as Inora pointed at the carousel . " Oh yes , because we wouldn't look like complete idiots on that " She said oh so sarcastically while laughing . Violet was always a sarcastic person, it was just how she was.
Violet look at the ride to their right and her eyes grew big " Whoa ." Was all she said as she watched the ride bring people all the way to the top slowly then have them crash down . She then looked at the carousel again then at the terror ride. "Hmmm I like that one " She said pointing to the carousel like a small child picking out a toy in a toy store. " I think we should start off small , then go on terrifying rides that will make us puke " She said smiling her signature small smile. Violet never really smiled widely . It wasn't because she had bad teeth or anything like that . It just never really happened, unless she was cracking up .
Violet walked over with Inora to the beautiful carousel and jumped on a black stallion . It was made and painted very skillfully. Once she got on it she looked at it and said " You know I've always wanted to ride a black stallion, but you know ...the other kind " Vi said as smirked at her little dirty joke. Tons of children came on the ride as well and looked at the two girls as if they had three heads. " Ah , little kids , they are probably wondering what we're doing on here"
As the ride started Violet held onto the pole that held her horse and she raised her arm in the air as if she was a cowboy in the old west about to tie up a cow with his rope. Violet was happy that she was with Inora and could act silly. She wouldn't normally act this way with most people. She could come off pretty cold if you didn't really talk to her . She didn't know if it was the candy she had or the fact Inora was in town but she was on a high and was loving ever minute of it .

Inora simply smiled at Vi’s reaction to her question and waited. Just cause Violet gave a sarcastic answer to a question, or made a sarcastic remark about something, didn’t mean that she wouldn’t end up doing it. Just as she suspected, Violet agreed with her on the idea to start small and work your way up. Inora smiled and nodded her agreement, it was really the best approach for two girls like them. Get all the childish fun stuff out of the way and out of their systems so that they can approach the bigger scarier rides like adults…or as much like adults as they could get.
She accepted the not full smile without really even noticing, that was just Violet for you. Inora was really the perfect compliment to Violet, one was somewhat sarcastic and slow to smile fully, the other was a little naïve and slow to do anything but smile. Inora followed Violet over to the carousel and surveyed her options as far as stallions. The horse next to the one Violet chose was white, the one on the other side was brown, Inora carefully walked over to the white horse and slung her leg as gracefully as possible over the wooden horse. She slid a little and almost fell off the other side, but she righted herself quickly and no one seemed to notice.
Inora, ever the naïve little girl, thought that Violet simply meant that she had also wanted a real stallion. So she smiled, nodded, and gave her own assent to a similar wish. Though of course, her wish stemmed from reading the book Black Beauty when she was younger with her mom, and she also meant a real horse. She smiled at the children that came onto the carousel and then at their parents who waited just outside the metal dividers. The parents smiled back, thinking it a little weird to see two girls so old on the ride with their children, but Inora’s smile set them at ease. The children however, simply ignored Inora and Violet, they found the horse’s they wanted and waited for the ride to start.
A sharp jolt and the beginning of horrible circus-esque music blaring out over the noises of the amusement park signaled the ride’s start. Inora gripped the pole with one hand loosely and joined Violet in raising her arm like a cowgirl. Inora smiled at Vi’s behavior, she knew her friend well enough to know that it was only okay to act like this when it was just her and Inora. The kids weren’t ignoring them anymore, now Violet and Inora had become their leaders and they were following suite in the arm waving and giving enthusiastic ‘yeehaws’.
Nora smiled over at her friend and then sighed unhappily as the ride slowed to a stop. Inora slid off the back of the horse awkwardly and then reached to help Violet off of her own horse. The children were clamoring around, pushing each other and then rushing off to their parents laughing. Inora looked at the next ride that wasn’t too big but was sure to be a little more fun than the carousel.
It was called the scrambler, it consisted of four arms with three benches attached that were all attached to a center pole. The whole thing rotated and then each of the four arms rotated as well, effectively scrambling the brains and stomach content. Inora smiled and pointed excitedly.
“Let’s do that one next, I love spinny rides!” She really did, every time Inora went to an amusement park or state fair she found the rides like this one and rode them many, many times. Inora gently slipped her arm through Violet’s and led her to the ride. Though she would stop in a second if Vi had a problem with spinning.
