Relax and Recharge 2: Extreme Relaxation, Tuesday Period Two

Once more Bond's class was meeting in the Danger Shop. Once within, they stood by a set of turnstiles, overgrown with vines.

"Good morning," Bond greeted them cheerfully. "Today we'll be looking at the practice of urban exploration, which as you might guess from the name involves finding various abandoned structures within urban areas and exploring them. It's not as immediately exciting as some of your previous weeks' options, but it has its own set of thrills, both from the at best quasi-legal nature of the act, as well as various structural dangers and environmental health risks that can arise in locations such these."

"Now, we're going to exploring something a touch out of the ordinary, even for this hobby, an abandoned German amusement park." Because going to an abandoned amusement park was totally a fun teenager activity, and likely to lead to lingering psychological trauma for any of the class.

Abandoned.

Ringo Noyamano

Nathan Byrn

Kathy Li

Daphne Blake

Okay, this sounds like a totally normal class.

Staring at the turnstiles, Ringo looked positively stricken. She'd been to amusement parks before back home, and one thing that had always struck her was that they were practically playgrounds for AirTrek. And here she was at an abandoned one, and her ATs were back in her room.

It wasn't fair!

¨This place is so sad,"Daphne murmured to the girl she hoped she was making friends with each week.

"Daphne!" Ringo responded with an excited grin. Then her expression softened slightly as she thought about that. "Sad?" she asked looking around. She hadn't thought of it that way. "How so?"

¨Amusement parks should be filled with noise and laughter and the smell of food that isn't healthy for you.¨

This place reminded her of one of Mystery Inc.'s cases.

"Well, I suppose that's true," Ringo mused. "But, well, doesn't it seem like it's still full of possibilities?" she asked, looking around again. "It's kind of like a giant playground that we have all to ourselves!"

Daphne looked around and then a small smile spread across her face. ¨Well, when you put it that way, you do make a good point.¨

Kathy was looking around, practically counting all the things she could climb up. Like the Ferris wheel. And the roller coaster. And the everything!

Inside the park were various abandoned rides, like swan boats, or a ferris wheel, a viking ship, and numerous fibreglass dinosaurs, all covered in a thick blanket of weeds.

...um did that fibreglass dinosaur turn its head to look at you?

Even though this place was slightly strange, Nathan found it relaxing. It was quiet and still. It had a history to it that made Nathan curious. He walked around the rides, stopping and staring every so often.

Ringo was enjoying the park, too, though not in quite the same way Nathan was. She was running around, jumping on things, and generally trying to explore places you probably weren't supposed to go. Well, weren't supposed to go even more than just into the abandoned park at all.

Which is how she ended up on the roof of one of the park buildings when her foot hit a rotten bit of wood and went sliding away. "Whoops!" she called out as she tumbled off the edge, managing to turn her fall into a controlled flip and landing just before a small rain of debris slid off after her.

When she looked up and spotted Nathan, her eyes widened in surprise. "Oh, sorry! I hope none of that hit you!"

The debris had fallen down well away from him but Nathan had glanced up anyway. He shook his head.

"No, you're fine," he called up. "I'm fine too. No harm done."

"Oh, good," Ringo exclaimed with a relieved grin.

"It's one thing to accidentally drop a bunch of debris on a friend, but with someone you don't really know I'm pretty sure it counts as rude."

"It's fine," he said again, shaking his head. "Even if you'd hit me, I'd be fine. It's not that big a deal. Thanks for the lookout anyway."

"I'm Ringo, by the way," she offered, brushing some dirt off of her pants and then walking closer. It was worth introducing herself in case it was rude to almost land on someone (well, for some values of 'almost') and not even tell them your name.
