Should Have Stuck with Fruitball<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cParfaits are not meant to look like people we know,\u201d Lea said, poking at his Goofy Parfait with his spoon. <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m fine with it,\u201d Kairi said, casually biting one of the Queen Minnie ears off her Royalberry cone. Lea and Ventus exchanged a look. \u201cWhat?\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cYikes.\u201d Lea stuck a spoonful of ice cream in his mouth, which at least was coffee and almond flavored. \u201cSo, Ven, you brought us here. What\u2019s there to do in this one-horse town?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHis name\u2019s Horace,\u201d Ventus said. \u201cThere\u2019s plenty! We could try Fruitball, or there\u2019s an underground pinball game, but I thought you two would really like Rumble Racing. You\u2019re always fighting over who gets to drive the Gummi ship.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, nobody could beat Lea at Fruitball,\u201d Kairi said, earning a kick from Lea under the table. \u201cSo let\u2019s try that racing thing, sure. Winner drives home, no arguments AND no backseating.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWinner drives for a week,\u201d Lea amended. \u201cAt least make it worth my while to kick you two\u2019s butts.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s your funeral, grandpa,\u201d Kairi shrugged. She tried to steal one of the wafers out of Lea\u2019s parfait, but Lea whacked her hand with his spoon. <\/p>\n
\u201cPerfect!\u201d Ventus said, cheerfully going back to his Double Crunch sundae. <\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t until they were at the racetrack that Kairi and Lea realized they\u2019d been had. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis isn\u2019t an afternoon off, this is glider practice!\u201d Kairi accused. <\/p>\n
Ventus grinned, not at all sorry, already balanced on his own keyblade glider, hovering just off the ground. \u201cAqua said it\u2019d be good practice for you. Plus, be serious, did you really think we\u2019d get Lea squished into a Disney-sized go kart? His knees would be up to his ears.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cUgh, just look at this thing.\u201d Lea gestured to his glider. Regularly his glider was all slick silver and red, but the Disney Town version, with its rounded edges and cartoony flame decals, looked like a questionable toy ordered from the Moogle mail order catalog. \u201cYou\u2019ve ruined a perfectly good glider, you\u2019ve given it anxiety!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAt least yours has handles,\u201d Kairi said. Hers had turned out like Ventus\u2019s, meant to be balanced on like a surfboard. A very pink, flower-covered surfboard. \u201cMine looks like the carriage my plastic horses used to pull when I was five.\u201d Kairi hopped up onto it, trying to balance as it leaned left and right. \u201cWhoa, there!\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re fine, you\u2019re fine,\u201d Ventus encouraged easily. He swung his own glider around with the ease of practice, kicking towards the start line. \u201cCome on, race is about to start. Last one to the finish line is a Popcat!\u201d<\/p>\n
Lea dropped onto his own glider and feeling for the foot rests. At least when he twisted the handles forward, the glider revved satisfyingly. \u201cReady, princess?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBorn ready,\u201d Kairi retorted, kicking off and wobbling past Lea until she got some momentum going. \u201cEat my dust, Popcat!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShoulda stuck with Fruitball,\u201d Lea muttered, taking off to chase after her. Still, it wasn\u2019t all bad: maybe if he came in first, he\u2019d get an ice cream shaped like his face. \u201cReady or not, here I come!\u201d <\/p>\n
