Tara

15 minutes earlier…

We gotten to Puerto Mico without any trouble, thank goodness. However I have to stay on the ship because…..my friends and Milo believe I should sit this one out. I agree, have to wait for this blindness to fade out. Heheh I think I made a joke. Jokes aside I've been causing quite a number of trouble in the crew. And I'm suppose to lead. This habit…..I don't know how long it will take before I can overcome it, but what scares me the most…is the thought that….not everyone can be saved. Makes me sad and don't want to think about it, even those I have to. *Sigh*…..hhmmm? The door's been opened.

"Milo?", I questioned looking towards the sound, "Is that you?"

"Yes, it's me", Milo said closing the door then walking to me, "Here I found the eye drops you told me about"

"Wonderful, do you mind putting some drops in my eyes?", "I asked pointing to my eyes.

"Okay, uuh…how much?", Milo asked sound nervous.

"Five drops in each eye", I said tilting my head back.

"Alright then…."

I can feel it. Cold and a little tingly that almost…makes me want to blink…*breathes* phew. It's over, however, I have to keep my head up and slowly blink or else it'll fall out my eyes.

"Will this work?", Milo asked sounding concerned, "I mean it'll work, but will it work work?"

"Yes…it just takes time, for how long I have no idea", I said blinking slowly, "But this will speed up the process for my vision"

"….Tara"

"Yes?"

"I know you want to help others, but uum…maybe you could give it a break from it…maybe?", Milo answered sound nervous.

"…", I slowly bring my head down and close my eyes.

"I uuhh umm…I didn't mean to put your action's down…."

I rest my head on my hand, I don't know what to say. Every time I apologize I get pitied by my friends, I'm even giving myself too much pity. That still doesn't make up for my actions. Geez I can't think right, Milo gives me a pat on the back trying to comfort me. Whoa! I sense a lot of tension. Either our friends are back feeling upset or someone else is on this ship. I asked Milo to see who was outside and he gladly check. Yup, it was them. I would get up and figure out what's wrong, however, I'm still blind. Mari tells us we need to go back to the Isle of Doom so we could switch to a new ship we were given. This one is guarantee to help us on our travels. The safer the better I would say.

"Ooooh right another thing", Mari, said snapping her fingers, "Tara I have some good news aaand bad news"

"Tell me the bad news followed by the good"

"Okay, the bad news is we can't use the main stormgates leading to Valencia", Mari says, "But the good news there's a back way we can take to get in without them noticing us"

"Phew, that's good", I said relieved.

"However, we don't have the travel papers needed to get through ssssoo…wwweee gotta travel to Monquista and get a royal to sign them", Mari says, "You heard me right Tara?"

"Yes!", I said bringing my attention back.

It's kinda hard to focus when Rebecca's negative energy is consuming the room, I feel pretty suffocated right now.

10 minutes later…

"Aah I still remember how awful my experience here was", Mari says as I hear her walking off the ship.

"Mari why are we here if you don't like it so much?", Bonnie asked, "Why didn't we stop at Scrimshaw?

"Lady have you been to Scrimshaw", Mari asked calmly and sassily, "That place reeks of garbage and death, why would I make you guy suffer through that?!

"Okay okay, I get it", Bonnie said.

"Alright stand back people", Mari said sounding like she was going to open the bottle.

"Whoa look at the size of that thing!", Milo shouted sounding amazed.

"Dang it of course it's a Monquistador", Mari said sounding upset.

"Isn't that a good thing?", Kobe questioned, "With this we can trick the Monquistans to think we're one of them"

"Yea, but not in the heat of battle. Plus we don't have any Monquistan gear to put on it", Mari complained, "Man it doesn't even have Hull Armor on it, I can see why it looks stiff to turn. No wonder there's so many sails connected to each other"

She is going on and on about this. Theorizing its condition, defense, weapons, even calculating the Hull Integrity if the armor as put on without being on the ship. I know it because I'm behind her while Milo holds my hand. Now I can her and others walk to the ship. I am seriously glad I kept her as captain of the ship, I still have no idea how to work those things.

"Hey Tara wanna sit down?", Milo asked, "I see some boxes you can sit on"

"Sure"

Milo let's go of my hand while I wait….and felt Rebecca's energy- seriously what happened while I was in the other ship?

"Rebecca-

"I'm fine!", I heard her say sounding upset, "And how do you know where I am?"

"You are hard to miss even when blind"

"Not funny!"

"Here…you go Tara, Phew", Milo said putting the box down near me.

"Thank You Milo", I thanked trying to find the box by touch.

Milo gladly help me sit down, much better. I hear Rebecca walk towards me and stand by me, I look towards where she might be without thinking.

"….Mmmmm….."

"What is it?", I asked tilting my head a little.

"Nothing….."

"Come on if you really want to say something don't hold it back"

"Ggaaa you are not….."

"Uuuh", Milo said sounding nervous

"…Milo can you get Rebecca a box the sit on", I asked looking to Milo.

"I can sit on the ground thank you!", Rebecca shouted sitting down.

Oookkaay I'm going to not be nosey right now. Just enjoy the air and wind through the sky. *Breathes*

"*Mutters*", I heard Rebecca do.

Nnno Tara no, mind your business….

"Mmmmmmrrrr mrmrmrmr…"

…She is not making this easy.

"*Cough* Ow!", I heard Milo says.

"You okay?", I asked quickly looking to Milo.

"Yea it's this wound, but it'll be fine", Milo said, "It was just a pinch, how are your eyes doing? Can you see anything yet?"

"No nothing yet", I said shaking my head slowly and calmly.

"Well I'm sure you'll pull through", Milo said patting my back, "I mean both of us have these past years, right?"

"T…Tara", I heard Rebecca say sounding nervous.

"Hm?", I questioned looking…where ever she's sitting.

"I'm sorry for….getting you blind"

"…It's okay, I forgive you"

"Wait, what?"

"I already knew you were going through something"

"Eeeeh o…kay?", Rebecca said sounding confused.

"That or you probably had a fight with Mari again"

"You know what, forget you!"

Hahahaha I don't know why, but Milo and I found that funny. Just the way she said it hahaha. I've even heard Rebecca a little under her breath, THAT'S the surprising. Oh goodness…at least her negative energy has gone down, now we just have to wait for Mari to finish inspecting the new ship. Again she is seriously going on about this new ship, this is going to take hours. AGAIN!
