Chapter 181

"Dad, wake up, we're going to Sea World", said Electra, shaking him.

Dave muttered something in his sleep, his eyes slowly fluttering open. He looked up and saw Electra's eager face, her blue eyes shining with delight.

"Good morning to you, Electra. I know, but I'm not as young as I used to be. Let me wake up Kitty and we'll go to Denny's for breakfast", he said.

"Oh yes, Dad. Justis is already up", she said, heading out the room.

Dave chuckled to himself and turned over in his bed. Catriona was fast asleep, her auburn hair in a long braid. He pulled back the covers and raked his eyes over her body, concealed by only a thin cream slip. Luckily we put on pajamas last night, I'd hate if my daughter saw us naked, he mused.

"Wake up, Kitty. We're going to Sea World", he whispered.

Her eyes opened at his words, a slow smile forming on her face. "Good morning, Dave. You know I can't pass up a trip to Sea World", she chuckled throatily.

"Bad girl, Electra already woke me up, saying she wants to go. Let's go take a shower and get breakfast at Denny's", he said.

"That sounds great, Dave. I know their stuff is fattening, but it's so good", she giggled.

"Yeah, I know that. But the kids love it", he replied, taking her into the bathroom.


Dave and Catriona emerged from the bathroom half an hour later. Electra was seated at the table tapping her foot impatiently, her blue eyes glowing with excitement. She looked cute in jeans and a pink blouse, tiny butterfly barrettes in her blond hair. Justis sat opposite her, playing a game on his PSP. He wore jeans and a Dragonforce shirt, his red hair falling to his shoulders.

"Dad, can we go now?", she pleaded.

"Of course, anythig for the lady", he said gallantly.

"Oh, good morning Kitty. I like your shirt", she said.

"Thanks", she replied, smiling at the girl. Catriona wore a purple t-shirt, designed in a tie-dyed pattern with streaks of burnt orange and dark pinkish-red, resembling a sunset. It went well with her black jeans and the amber necklace around her throat, her auburn hair in a braid to her waist and the black suede ankle boots on her feet.

"Don't take this the wrong way, but you look hot Kitty", said Justis, his cheeks turning bright pink.

"Justis, you can look but not touch. Just kidding, but you got Teresa, don't try anything or I'll break your arm", he teased, while he pretended to glare.

"Don't worry, you're too old for me", joked Justis.

"Men. Let's go to Denny's before it fills up with old people", said Catriona, as the men blushed.


"So, what is Sea World like now?", asked Catriona. They were sitting in a booth at Denny's, waiting for their food.

"Yeah, they got these awesome rides like the Wild Arctic one, and I think they have some even better than that", said Justis, taking a large gulp of coffee.

"I know, they still have Shamu and the dolphins, it's been ages since I've been there", said Dave thoughtfully.

"I wanna feed the dolphins, Dad", said Electra eagerly.

"Cool. I've never been to Sea World, so I don't know what they have. I haven't gone to Disneyland a lot either", said Catriona.

"I know, I'm too old for it, Kitty. Standing in line to go on some ride is kinda pointless at my age", he cracked.

"Dad, you ought to go on the new coaster there, it's got like eight loops", said Justis dreamily.

"No thanks, Justis. I'm too old", he cracked, as the waiter arrived with their food.

Chapter 182

The family arrived at Sea World an hour later. Justis was still playing with his PSP but Electra looked eagerly out the window. "I love Sea World, Kitty. I want to feed the dolphins", she said excitedly.

"Like I said, I can't feed the dolphins because I don't want to lose any fingers", joked Dave as he parked the car.

Everyone got out of the car and walked towards the trolley. A crowd of people was already gathered outside waiting for the trolley to take them to the park. The crowd consisted of families, along with a bunch of old people from a retirement home and a busload of Japanese tourists with cameras around their necks.

Nobody paid much attention to them as the were anxiously awaiting the trolley, but some of the old people gave them looks. Dave was middle-aged, but his red hair was long to his shoulders and he wore a Motorhead shirt and jeans, while Catriona was young enough to be his daughter. They were standing close to each other and holding hands, while Justis still had his PSP and Electra tried to see the trolley.

Finally, the green and white trolley arrived at the parking lot. Everyone climbed aboard, the green awning shielding them from the sun. "Hello and welcome to Sea World, relax and enjoy your trip", said the driver, as the last people boarded the trolley.

Several of the Japanese tourists were seated in front of them: two parents and a little girl in a sailor outfit. The little girl stared curiously at them, her eyes riveted to Dave's red hair. She poked her mother and said something in Japanese, as her mother shushed her. The woman smiled apologetically at them.

"I am sorry about that, Hotaru is a very curious child", she said.

"That's all right, ma'am. When we were in Japan, we got a lot of stares. I'm Catriona Burton", she said.

"And I am Sakura Kanagawa and this is my husband Hiro and our daughter Hotaru", she said, shaking her hand.

"I know, us redheads get a lot of attention anywhere", said Dave gallantly, as Catriona playfully punched him.

"Are you two married?", asked Sakura.

"No ma'am. I'm Dave, Kitty's boyfriend and these are my kids Justis and Electra", he replied.

"What's Japan like? Dad's band and Kitty's band played there last year", said Electra.

"We are from Kyoto, miss. And what bands are you in?", she asked.

"I"m the lead singer of Beren's Dream", said Catriona.

"And I'm in Megadeth", said Dave.

"I have not heard of either of those bands, I'm afraid", she said shyly.

"That's all right, ma'am", said Catriona.

"Welcome to Sea World, enjoy your stay in our marine paradise", said the driver.

"It was nice talking to you", said Sakura.

"Maybe we'll meet again inside the park. Have fun", said Catriona, as they got out of the trolley.

The trip to Sea World is off to a great start! The Japanese people were very kind. Dave Mustaine will never be middle aged to me- he'll always be 20 :)

I liked that chapter. The Japanese people rocked!!! I thought it was very realistic how she hadn't heard of either band. Most people who don't like metal don't know what Megadeth is. :( I have a friend who is really into classic rock AC/DC, Van Halen but she has never heard of Megadeth before. She doesn't know what she's missing. :)

Chapter 183

"Man, how long is this line?", grumbled Justis. They were standing in line outside the Wild Arctic ride, waiting to go on. The line was quite long, as this was one of the more popular attractions at the park.

"Don't worry, we'll be there in no time", said Dave reassuringly.

The line inched forward as the doors opened. Justis saw a girl in front of them, looking vaguely familiar. She was of average height and slim, jet-black hair going well with her tanned skin and white sundress. She turned around and his heart leapt into his throat.

"Dad, Teresa's up ahead", he whispered, his cheeks turning pink.

"This must be your lucky day, Justis. Maybe you can sit next to her on the ride", teased Dave, as he turned even redder.

Finally it was their turn to go in. In front of them were six doors and six lines fitting seven people each. The doors closed behind them as the TV screens turned on. It showed a short program about the ride, explaining that they were going on a mission to the Arctic.

Justis paid no attention to the program, his attention on Teresa. She was with her father and brother, both men burly and strong. Man, I hope they don't kick my ass, he prayed.

The doors opened as the attendants arranged everyone in the proper rows. "How many?", the attendant asked Dave.

"Four", he replied.

The attendant nodded and led them to aisle three. To Justis' delight, he found himself next to Teresa. Her dark eyes lit up when she saw him. "Hola, Justis. Papa, this is Justis Mustaine, he is taking me out on Friday to the movies", she said.

Mr. Alvarez looked at him curiously. He was a tall, muscular man wearing grey slacks and a white shirt, his salt and pepper hair combed to the side. "Hola, Justis. I am Senor Alvarez, Teresa's father. I hope you will be on your best behavior", he said with his heavy Spanish accent.

"Yes sir", he replied.

Everyone got in their seats and fastened their seatbelts as the lights dimmed. Justis was conscious of Teresa next to him, her dark hair brushing his shoulder. He could smell the spicy scent of sandalwood on her, making him weak in the knees. Her brother gave him a look, as he blushed furiously. He was tall and muscular like his father, with his sister's dark good looks, as he eyes Justis warily.

The helicopter ride went smoothly until they landed on a glacier. It plunged through the ice as the chairs moved under them. Teresa screamed and moved closer to him, her eyes wide with fear. He took her hand and smiled reassuringly at her, seeing her slim hand in his large calloused one.

Catriona observed them out of the corner of her eye. She had to admit they were a striking couple: tall, fair red-haired Justis and the slim, darkly pretty Teresa. I hope her father and brother like him, they are a cute couple, she thought.

The ride ended as everyone took off their seatbelts and left the room. "Hola, Senor Mustaine. Me llamo Armando Alvarez, y ese son mi hijo Raul y mi hija Teresa", he said, extending his hand.

Dave smiled and shook his hand. "Hola, Senor Alvarez. Me llamo Dave Mustaine, y ese son mi novia Catriona Burton, y mi hijo Justis y mi hija Electra", he replied in perfect Spanish.

Mr. Alvarez raised an eyebrow, a smile forming on his face. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Mustaine. I just wanted to see how well you can speak Spanish, it is a quirk of mine", he said.

"Papa, don't do that. I am sorry, Mr. Mustaine", said Teresa.

"That's all right. I can already speak French, Spanish is a cinch", he chuckled.

"Senorita Burton, puede hablar Espanol?", he asked.

"Si, Senor. Pero mi familia no son Espanol, mi papa son Americano y mi mama son Escotia y Polonia. Puedo hablor el lengua de Polonia tambien", she replied.

"Well then. You kids go and have a good time, but Raul must watch you", said Mr. Alvarez.

"Thank you. I mean, gracias senor", said Justis, hastily correcting himself.

Thanks girls :) Spanish is my second language and I'm fluent in it. And on One Night in Buenos Aires, Dave speaks Spanish to the crowd because they're in Argentina, his Spanish is really good, he's got the accent when he speaks it. Ownage :horns2

Chapter 184

Teresa's brother Raul smiled at his father and then faced the young couple. He was tall and darkly handsome, resembling a young Antonio Banderas. His dark eyes appraised Justis, his expression solemn.

"I am to watch over you, that is Papa's orders. And you have better not try anything, Senor Justis", he said, his Spanish accent heavy in the air.

Justis looked at him straight in the eye. "Don't worry, dude. I'm not that dumb", he cracked.

"I am sorry, Justis, but Raul is like that", said Teresa apologetically.

"That's cool. As a wise once said, the chase is better than the catch", he chuckled, as Teresa giggled.

"Who said that?", she asked.

"It's a Motorhead song, Dad really likes them. They're awesome", said Justis.

"You like Motorhead? The last album they did was very good, but my favorite is 1916", said Raul.

"My Dad is a huge Motorhead fan, I grew up on this stuff. But my favorite band at the moment is Children of Bodom, Alexi Laiho can shred", he said, giving the metal salute.

"Raul likes such heavy music. I do like Nightwish, though. Tarja had such a good voice", said Teresa.

"They're cool, my Dad's girlfriend is a huge fan", said Justis.

"I have heard of them, they are very good. I do not wish to sound rude, but she is quite young", said Teresa.

"I thought so too, but she's cool. She likes heavy metal and you should see her and Dad, they're really happy together. He needed that after the divorce", he replied.

A slow smile formed on Raul's face, his dark eyes gleaming with amusement. "Justis, I like you. Are you going to try anything with Teresa?", he asked.

"No, I don't want you to kick my ass", he cracked.

"Good. I will leave you two alone, but we will meet up and see Papa later. But you have better not try anything, verdad?", he asked, extending his hand.

Justis shook his hand. "Si, dude", he said.


Meanwhile Dave, Catriona and Electra were watching the dolphins. "Dad, I wanna feed the dolphins", said Electra.

Dave chuckled and bent down to her level. "Of course, anything for the lady", he said gallantly.

He bought dolphin feed and handed it to her. Electra opened the bag and approached the dolphin. The sleek, gray mammals leapt and danced in the pool, their happy squawks filling the air.

Electra smiled at the dolphin. It was a sleek gray creature, with bright lively eyes and a smile on its face. She fed it, as it squealed happily.

"Look Dad, he's happy", she giggled.

Electra fed it more and gently patted him on the head. The dolphin squealed and made a sound like a giggle.

Dave and Catriona watched the dolphin with Electra. "She's a real sweetie, isn't she?", he whispered in her ear.

that chapter ruled! :) Justis and Electra and really sweet. Dolphins are pretty cute. When I was in Hawaii they swam right up to our boat.

I have that Megadeth Night in Buenos Aires DVD and it rocks out. I guess if I need help with Spanish I know who to ask. :)
