Reviewer notes:
pIPPINpIRATE- I'm sorry, allright? I won't do it again!(Bet you can guess what movie that's from) I actually had it almost all typed up on Tuesday but my #$%& computer decided to erase it! Here it is. Finally. =)
CrazyTomboy- thanks for reviewing!
katy- I can't wait to let you read it, dude!
Krilik- It took me about 2 hours to get it completely typed up!
Freddy K- You thought it was gonna be crappy? Hmmm I'll have to show you that its not crappy.
I awoke the next morning to feel Jaceno shaking me and urgently telling me to wake up. I opened my eyes and sat up. I almost yelled as an invisible hammer pounded the side of my head. My whole body felt like a truck had run over it. I looked up at Jace and he nodded. "Yeah, I hurt alot too. Hey, look around, sis, and tell me if you know this place." I did and my heart skipped a beat. "Crescentia Spaceport?!," I whispered in disbelief. "We've got to be dreaming, Jace!"
"Well, if we are we're having the exact same dream. Pinch me."
I did and he yelped. "Ouch! Well...I guess that proves we're here."
"Yeah. The dream I made last night must've come true!"
Jace stared at me. "You made a wish? So did I!"
I grinned. "I guess they must've come true then! I'm glad we're away from Josen now."
"Yeah. Hey, Cassie, did you notice your clothes?"
I looked down and found myself wearing a light purple shirt, a dark blue jacket, dark purple pants, and black cargo boots. I glanced at Jaceno and saw him wearing almost the exact same clothes, but they were blue.
"Okay...this is weird."
"Uh-huh. But it's probably a good thing we aren't wearing our pj's, huh, Cassie?"
"Yeah. Let's get out of this alley and look around."
Jace pulled me up and we walked out onto the street. As soon as I stepped onto the sidewalk something heavy rammed into me and pinned me to the ground. The thing lay on top of me, not allowing me to breathe until I heard someone say, "Hey, Doc, get off of that kid!" The weight lifted and I looked up into the bluest eyes I'd ever seen. The stranger smiled and offered me his hand. "Sorry about that. Doc here wasn't watching where he was going." I smiled back and said, "Thats okay. I'm fine."
Jace came over and put a hand on my shoulder. The boy looked up at my brother and frowned. "Are you her father?" Jaceno laughed and replied, "Nah, she's my little sister." I glared up at him. "I am not 'little', Jace! I'm fourteen years old, just four years younger than you!"
The kid grinned. "I'm fifteen. What's your name?"
"Cassie Solode."
"I'm Jim Hawkins. And this", he said sounding bored, "is Doctor Delbert Doppler."
The dog-like man in a strange spacesuit bent its head and said, "Pleased to make your aquaintance."
Jace nodded and took my hand. "Well, it was nice to meet you both but we've gotta run. Our parents'll be pretty upset if we don't get home soon."
Doppler nodded and said, "Come along, Jim. We'd better get to the ship before they decide to leave without us!"
They headed into the crowd and Jim waved as they disappeared. I waved back, then Jaceno pulled me back into the alley, a serious frown on his face.
He frowned and quietly said, "Cassie, I've got this weird feeling that we've heard of those two people before, but I can't remember when."
I sighed. "Same here, Jace. I mean, I remember everything about Earth, but nothing about the Treasure Planet movie. Its like it's been completely erased from our memories!"
"Yeah. But something's telling me that we should find a ship called the RLS Legacy. Come on."
We headed out of the alley again, but this time I watched before I stepped onto the sidewalk. After asking a passerby for directions we found the ship and went up the gangplank. Once there Jaceno went up to a uniformed cat-like woman and spoke to her for a few minutes. Then she and Jace came over to me. The feline looked me over skeptically and asked me my age. When I said fourteen, she frowned, but after a moment her face brightened. "I know what I can do with you. Our cook can always use a helper. There's another teenager coming soon, but there can be more than one cabin, uh...boy." She looked at Jaceno. "Your sister will be our cabin-girl. Is that alright with you?"
"Yes, Captain. And what will I be doing?"
She frowned. "I would like you to help with the rigging." She called over a tall man who looked like he was made of rock. "Mister Arrow, please escort Miss Solode down to the galley. She'll be assisting our cook during the voyage."
The man nodded and motioned for me to follow him down some stairs. When we reached the bottom of them he called out, "Mr. Silver, here's a helper for you." I heard a whirring sound and looked through the dimness to see a figure walking toward us.
"Why hello, lass!", a voice said as a hand stretched toward me. I cautiously took it and the person stepped up to me. I gasped as I saw that half of his body was made of metal! Arrow said,"This is Cassandra Solode, Mr. Silver. She'll be assisting you on the voyage."
Silver smiled. "Well, she don't look too strong, sir."
I scowled and tightened my grip on his hand, twisting it toward the floor. He quickly pulled his hand back and rubbed it while looking at me sheepishly.
"Okay, well I guess yer stronger than I thought. Sorry lass."
I smiled back sweetly and said, "Thats alright, Silver."
Suddenly the captain called for Arrow to come above-decks again. He left Silver and I watching each other doubtfully.
Well, what'd you think? Leave a review! I promise that the next chapter will be up soon.
