"C'mon... C'mon..."
It was a Friday night, which meant school was out and many young people were kicking off the weekend. No place knew this more than the amusement park located near the piers. Pouring with lights and colors against the dimming evening sky, the place drew in kids like a moth to a flame. For Polly, it was more like a bat to an arcade. At least literally, anyway.
Pollyanna wasn't very good at video games, but the bright lights that flashed on and off and the temptation to win things was enough to draw her in. She was alone, but she didn't mind. All she cared about in the present moment was the stack of stuffed animals inside a claw machine. Especially one that happened to be a giant, pink fluffy bunny.
"Aaaaand, go!"
She pressed the button after lining it up what seemed to be perfectly, which sent the claw downwards and around the head of said bunny. Like a child window-shopping at a candy store her face was pressed tautly against the glass in hopes that the prize would be hers. It grabbed, and came up perfectly. Unfortunately..
"Aw, darnit!" The rigged claw caused the bunny to slip out of its clutches, thus eating up another dollar of Polly's hard earned money. She sighed, but ultimately shrugged it off. Oh well. Maybe this would have been easier if she was in her true form, but she didn't want to scare anyone. She could try again, or...
Her head turned as her hand jostled the cup that had a pile of coins in it. Looking for a game that seemed easy, or was interesting to watch. It was soon after in her panoramic view that she found one that flashed twenty different colors it seemed. It looked fun, yet didn't have too many around it, minus a girl that was already there. Smiling, Polly approached to wait in line. Or watch. Whatever it was, Polly's eyes were glued to the screen. Maybe she was standing a bit too close, but Polly didn't know the wiser. She was just having fun through observation, and her naiveté could take her one of two routes. Hopefully not the kind that would have her punched in the face.
