The place: Amado's Flying Stretch Limo-Cadillac. California. The time: Spring Break. 6:00 pm. Dinner Rush Hour. The mission: Order food.
"Thank you for choosing Burger King, how can I help you?" crackled the voice on the speaker.
Amado leaned forward. "Yes, uh... I'd like..."
"Amado, Gabriel keeps hitting me!" piped up Ed from the back seat.
"It's not my fault! You're sitting too close to Jo!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am NOT!"
"Stop hitting me! There's a lady present!"
"Oh like that stopped you you Spanish piece of--"
"G-guys, please... can't we just get along for one car ride?" Jo interjected sheepishly.
"He started it!" Ed and Gabriel replied in perfect sync. They were both quickly smacked upside the head by a gigantic fan.
Aka proved to be the responsible one, smacking it against her open palm next. "Both of you quiet down."
"So... your order sir?"
Amado nodded. "Sorry about that. Like I said, I'd like--"
The speakers blared to life, cutting him off again. "CA-LI-FORNIA GIRLS WERE UNFORGETTABLE! DAISY DUKES! BIKINIS ON TOP!"
"R-Ren..!" Amado shouted, surprised at the interruption.
The girl looked sheepishly over at him, poking her fingers together. "I just thought... we needed a cheerful distraction, so... I didn't think it'd be so loud."
"WE'LL MELT YOUR POPSICLE! OH-OH OH OH-OH!" There was an awkward silence in the car, aside the song.
"I'll turn it down." Ren finally offered.
"Thank you." Amado replied, turning back to the speaker. "Now then. As I was saying, I'd like a Ren's naked boobies on a silver platter with a side of milk. Actually, leave the milk in, I'll get it myself." The world rewound suddenly. "-was saying, I'd like GOD DAMMIT GABRIEL WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT DOING THAT?!"
Ren, from the passenger's seat, was blushing furiously. "O-oh my. Right here..? So bold, Amado-kun..!"
"Ren you didn't seriously--" Amado sighed, and put a hand on his forehead. "Maybe later. We're here to order food, remember?"
Jo looked out the back window. "There's a line forming... we should hurry."
Ed chimed in immediately. "Well if someone (Gabriel) hadn't just had to interrupt everyone twice we'd be done by now. Aren't you our enemy? Why are you even here?!"
"Because I speak Spanish, of course!" he replied without missing a beat.
This exchange somehow earned both of them another thwack from the fan. "I'm hungry." Aka bluntly stated. "Order."
"Alright! I'm TRYING." Amado said tersely to the others. He turned to the speaker and yelled before anyone could interrupt. "I'd like a Big Mac value meal, please!"
Silence descended upon the car. Amado could sense he'd committed some kind of faux pas, but wasn't sure what. "...what?"
"Amado..." Ren said with a muted tone. "This is Burger King. McDonald's has the Big Mac."
"...oh."
A moment of silence filled the car. Then, with no warning, it took off into the sky again. "GUYS! We're going to McDonald's!"
A chorus of groans echoed throughout the car. Even Ren suddenly wondered why they'd let Amado drive.
In the back of the car, overlooking the rest of the madness were a girl and a woman. The girl, Hikari, tilted her head to the side almost imperceptibly. "Why do I let these idiots live, again..?" she wondered aloud.
The woman, Zaniah, put a hand to her forehead and sighed. "Sometimes, I find myself asking the same question."
