"I am so exited
I've never been to a fairground before,
still so many experiences to explore"
Pestilence coughed.
"I have only ever briefly passed through
one or two, never stopped to peruse"
Death smiled
"Arrhhh! Don't smile like the Lord D its creepy"
War jumped out of his skin,
watched his skin flee,
then stood shivering in his bones.
"Off to the fair we go"
2 hours later
"Ohh this candy floss is divine,
it’s like eating clouds but sweet.
And the hot dogs are fine,
the toffee apples a treat,
I'm in paradise.
There is just so much to eat!"
Famine spoke with lusty eyes.
"Let's queue for this one,
it's a roller coaster, should be fun"
War bounced
like a child on a trampoline,
trying to reach the sun.
1 hour later
"What are we queuing for again?
Oh yeah, the 'super fun' roller coaster"
The sarcasm in Deaths voice echoed
and killed the mood of many people around,
but not Wars.
"We are next it's gonna be great!"
The horse people had a car to themselves,
With a click, the safety bar firmly in place.
A smile beamed on Wars face
and within seconds
the world started to get smaller.
"We are sooo high up, I can see forever"
"No War, believe me I've SEEN forever
and it’s a lot bleaker than this"
Then the carriage lurched along a bend,
lulling the friends into a false sense of peace,
before dropping like a stone.
In a high-pitched tone,
Death screeched.
"Shhhhhhhiiiiiiitttttttttt!!!!!!!!"
"Aaaaaaarrrghhh we're gonna die"
War replied.
"Okay the ground is above me now,
this feels wrong.,
I'm going to close my eyes,
tell me when it's back where it belongs"
They staggered off the ride,
terrified.
"War you are banned from picking rides
and possibly grounded"
"Aww"
"Bleeeauuurghhhh"
Famine brought up
all the food
she had shovelled down,
"Carrots? but I didn't eat any carrots"
