What The Luck!?

Chapter 329 - 329. Legs Like Jelly

"But I don't understand. How is she doing it? That is the seventh time on the coaster and she looks even more comfortable?!" The manager had arrived after hearing that someone was challenging the record. 

The manager had leisurely walked from his office thinking that as usual, by the time he arrived, the challenger would have failed or given up. Yet, when he arrived, he found that the record was broken. No, the record had been crushed to pieces and was still being slammed on the ground like it was nothing. 

"Sir, I know. She looked a little uncomfortable on the fourth round ut now she is relaxed. She might even be trying to take a nap." The employees were just as shocked until Asher wandered up and tapped them on the shoulder. 

"She has a wind manipulation type super power. We joked about her using it as training and then this happened. I think she is using it to train what it might feel like to fly really fast.. She should have a natural disposition for this kind of thing." Asher glanced at the roller coaster which was about to head off again. "To be honest, she looks bored now." 

"That's it! Stop the coaster and reward her with her free pass and a coupon book for all her friends. If she doesn't want to stop she can continue but I'm calling the news. I want her statement to say that she found it easier than it sounded and that anyone can do fine but only a real challenger can hit ten and beat her." The manager felt a wave of desperation and inspiration. He would use this for publicity and increase the park's guest count again. 

Sammy smiled when the employee told her and took the silver and gold free pass for a lifetime membership. The employees handed out the special coupon books and a few guests waiting in line cheered for Sammy as she walked off the ride. 

When Sammy neared the others she leaned on Jackson, "Hey, help me walk. My legs are like jelly." The group was stunned at her loss of toughness. She had been so solid the entire time and it turned out to be just an act in front of the employees. 

"That was amazing. How did you do it?" LAura had waited until Sammy was sitting on a bench and had drank some water to finally ask the question everyone was dying to know. 

"Well, it was a lot of fun and after the first one, the adrenaline kept me there. But the third one my legs didn't want to move and I couldn't get off. The fourth was tougher and then I kind of got numb to it but was still not ready to get up. I'm just glad I didn't eat a lot of the stuffed french toast this morning." 

"I think we can all agree that we are done with roller coasters?" Cara was the one who made the final decision here. She wanted to make sure that they all had had their fill of the stomach twisting ride. 

"I agree with that, but we are still going on the twister over there? Right?" Art was the only one to speak out against Cara a little. He was pointing to a spinning ride and also went upside down twisting here and there. 

"Are you trying to get us to lose the food you made? You are evil. Make us eat something that tastes good they get us to lose it one a ride so you can force us to eat more." The image of Art in Louis's mind was becoming that of a devil bent on torturing them in a strange and unusual way. 

Asher had a better idea looking at the water park sign nearby, "Why don't we go to the lazy river that circles the entire park? It takes half an hour to get around and we can relax and get back to a solid base. Then we can go on more rides when the water park gets busy because of the heat. It would also be the best time for us to eat a little." 

The group seemed to like this idea better than any of the other possibilities. It was clear that they would take advantage of the coupons when it came to food and the haunted house later in the day. They all knew a real haunted house was best done in the evening anyway. The food was very popular in the park since it was a carnival style theme. Finnel cakes, fried dough, donuts, corn dogs, cotton candy, even fried tacos! 

"Asher, I know you are just suggesting that because you want to grab the food already. I already looked at the coupon book and saw the fried tacos." Jane was not a fool. She knew exactly what Ashers' motivation was to get to the lazy river which would be slow and take a lot of time. It would mean they all walked by the fried taco stand that he had been eyeing. 

"Bro! That fried taco coupon is buy one get one free. Those things cost like ten dollars. I will get one too." Asher knew that Art was his best friend for a reason. The two of them were not on a mission to try the best bad for you food they could. 

"I'm alright to go, but Jackson is carrying me on his shoulders there. My legs are still a little wobbly." Sammy used this an an excuse to be a little lazy and Jackson had no ability to argue against her. She was too set on it and his strength fell away when he was asked for help. It was a downfall but also a huge positive to who he was. 

" Alright, but what if we aren't a taco obsessed lucky jinx?" Louis was flipping through the booklet full of coupons and landed on a normal looking section. "Perfect, we will pass a normal sandwich shop that has turkey on wheat. I normal healthy meal is all I want." 

While they walked, Asher and Art bartered with their friends for the other taco coupons. Soon they had every single one in their possession at just the cost of the fried ice cream and slushie coupons. The others had decided to go with Asher's plan and were soon taking pictures while eating and walking the part. 

The fried taco proved to be double the size of a normal taco and Asher challenged Art to an eating contest leaving the group with a very comical new videos to laugh at later. The slushie Jane bought was the size of her head and she was sure to have a blue dyed tongue from the blue raspberry flavoring for the rest of the day.  Louis got his sandwhich only to find that it was a foot long monster that he was sure never to finish in their time at the park. It was more than he had expected to buy but he relished in it nonetheless. 

By the time they had reached the lazy river, they found that the staff had opened and were waiting. They would be the first people to brave the slightly cooler waters to take the long relaxing trip. Once their backpacks were stored in a nearby locker the fight for tubes began. They may all have been the same but that didn't stop the boys from fighting over them which brought a slight amusement to the girls as they acted like a cheering section and grabbed their tubes. 

As the boys hopped in to the tunes and started to push off they all became dead silent. The girls were showing off the bathing suits they had received. Not only were they all matching to some degree with different color polka dot patterns, but they also had gained an incredibly athletic and fit body from the training sessions. 

Once the boys found the will to shut their jaws they realized the girls were looking at them the same way. The boys were all similarly fit and athletic. They had lost a lot of their body fat and replaced it in to muscle without any of them realizing it. The dropped jaws slowly returned to their positions after a little bit of effort. However, the two groups knew that they had all seen and felt the same things. 

As fast as he could, Asger tried to change the subject while the girls got in and pushed off the side. "He Louis, I don't feel any zaps. You must have really improved your super power control." 

"Oh yeah, I have been practicing a lot in the pool at night before bed. I can keep it all in without letting it fry me or anyone else in the water. I already passed the need for the rubber bandages but now I can even touch metal and water. I still have trouble with electronics though. Something about them having electricity in the too." 

The robotic sounding conversation would be odd to anyone else but to the group, it broke the tension and brought them back to reality to enjoy the lazy river.
