One of the things which I have been 'privileged enough to experience of the past few years is that the alien woman's capacity for Jealousy far exceeds her human counterpart.... At least I think that's true; I personally don't have that much experience with human girls. The one thing that you should consider is that quite a few Non-Human Girls have some incredibly strange and also dangerous powers, so I can offer you two pieces of advice, firstly, don't EVER give them a reason to be Jealous. Secondly if they ever do get jealous, try to calm them down as quickly as possible.

Jim knew that he should feel happy but for some reason something felt wrong. Pushing it back as nerves he grinned and looked at his two companions, they were sitting at a small cafe area around a round table with a red and white striped parasol still up despite the late hour. To Jim's Left sat Aisha and to his right sat Hanmayo. The gap between the two girls could have easily fit one more person in but both of them seemed happy to have that gap.
"So when did you and Jim meet?" Aisha asked, a polite smile across her face.
"We met on the that space station about, five years ago wasn't it Jim?" Hanmayo answered. The years had changed her as much as they had changed Jim. No longer did she seem to have an obsession with pink, instead she now wore a pair of blue tight jeans, a denim waist jacket and a white, sleeveless blouse. She had let her hair grow and it now fell midway down her back.
"Yeah it must be" Jim said scratching the back of his head. "So what have you been up to?" the hacker asked.
"Oh a little of this a little of that" She said grinning at him. Looking across the table she glanced over at Aisha, her eyes betrayed her true feelings for barely a nanosecond but Aisha's eyes caught it. "So what have you been up to Jim?" She asked looking back across at him.
"Oh lots of things," Jim said with a broad grin. "Picking up a few bounties here and there. Doing a few odd jobs here and there to make ends meet. We're on a bit of a vacation now, until the next job pops up."
"What are you doing at the moment Hanmayo" Aisha asked, a touch of frost entering her voice, despite the polite smile on her lips.
"Oh this and that, mostly hauling cargo."
"Oh," Jim said remembering, "What happened to your cats." The blonde human missed the look of intense fury that passed over the human girl's features. Aisha didn't.
"They...both died" Hanmayo said
"Sorry, I didn't mean to bring back bad memories." Jim said putting a hand over hers.
"Its Allright" she said smiling across at him through tears. Looking up at the Clock behind the table her eyes widened. "Oh No!"
"What?"
"I'm late," she said leaping off her chair and straightening her clothes. "Listen Jim, it was great meeting up with you again, Ill probably see you about." Turning to Aisha her smile lessened but still remained polite "Nice to meet you, Aisha" her voice cold enough to freeze a waterfall
"You too, Hanmayo" The C'tarl C'tarl said in a voice rapidly approaching zero degrees Kelvin

Jim walked along the streets back to the spaceport with his arms crossed behind his head looking up at the stars, a grin across his face.
"Wow, I never expected to see her again."
"Oh" Jim turned around. If he didn't know better he would swear that his companion was angry. She was walking a few steps behind him with a carefully neutral expression on her face.
"Is..Something Wrong Aisha?"
"No, I'm fine!"
"Are You Sure?" Jim asked. This just wasn't like her; usually it was a challenge stopping Aisha from saying whatever came to mind but this...
"Jim, if I said that I'm fine, it means I'M FINE!" Her Outburst shocked the blonde hacker into silence for the rest of their journey.

Jim stood facing the training dummy, his wooden Broad sword held before him in both hands at approximately hip height. The Blade making a 45-degree angle with his spine. Closing his eyes he took a deep breath and held it for a few moments before slowly breathing out. Opening his eyes he began his kata.
He didn't understand what was wrong with the C'tarl C'tarl. The second they'd entered the star she ignored and efforts he made to suggest a vid or a game of something or another. She just shut herself in her room and proclaimed, when Jim knocked on her Cabin, that she just wanted to be left Alone.
Confused and a little annoyed, Jim headed immediately to the converted training room to try and work out some frustrations, which is where he found himself now.
Sprinting Forward he slashed the figure a glancing blow to the ribs, skidding to a stop six feet behind the dummy, he span around and repeated these running slashes 5 more times. Adopting a different stance he once more charged the manikin in a much more deliberate run, the tip of his sword dragging along the floor until, about a metre away, he swung the blade upwards giving a devastating slash from the dummy's mock crotch to its chin. Bringing the blade behind him with both hands until it was parallel with his pine, Jim focused all of his energies into the sword and leapt high into the hair. As he began his descent he swung the sword over his head and down splitting his 'opponent' completely in two.
The silence which was punctuated only by Jim's panting was shattered by a steady clapping from the doorway. Turning, Jim saw Gene standing in the doorway, a pair of tonfa tucked under one arm applauding the hackers performance.
"Think you can do that against someone who's fighting back?" the redhead asked with a grin. Jim brushed some hair out of his eyes and grinned.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
The Two Men Stood about 15 feet apart, Jim with the same serious expression he always wore before he began a fight, while Gene looked back with a cocky grin. Without any visible signal both combatants charged each other. Gene span his weapons round so that they no longer guarded his forearms but stretched out past is fist and attempted a double jab to the younger mans mid-section. Warned by the Redhead's shifting of grip, Jim brought his sword up knocking both tonfa out of the way, and, spinning around launched a counter attack-thrust which missed his partner by a hairs width.
"So why did you two come home so early," Gene asked, launching a two-pronged attack, one stick aimed at Jims Hips the other his head.
Ducking Genes attempted headshot and parrying the other Jim Launched a powerful, wild swing, more designed to give him some fighting room than to actually connect. "We met an old friend of mine at the fair."
"Oh yeah?" Gene said leaping back and flipping his weapons back into the defensive position
Jim Brought his sword back in front of him waiting for the next attack or gap in Gene's defence. "Yeah, so we all sat down and had a drink together"
"Sounds Like Fun." Gene said, making a false start in an attempt to put the blonde of his guard
"Yeah, it was." Jim said sprinting forward, swinging his sword in a series of fast broad strokes, causing Gene to back up further. "Don't know why it annoyed Aisha though."
Gene stopped moving and started using his superior strength to block Jim's strikes "Aisha didn't like your Friend?"
Jim backed up and let his sword fall to his side "Yeah, which is odd as she was nice to Aisha."
The Pilot let his arms fall to his side. "She?"
"Yeah an Old friend of mine, Hanmayo"
"Let me Get the facts right here." Gene said walking around until he was behind Jim. "You and Aisha Go out for a date."
"Yes"
"You Meet an Old Girlfriend of yours"
"Hanmayo isn't a girlfr-"
"Let me finish. She's a Girl who's a friend, yes?"
Jim's only reply was a nod.
"Ok then. So then you spend the rest of your date talking to her, instead of with your current Girlfriend"
"Yes?" Jim Replied, a strong hint of uncertainty creeping into his voice
"And you still think its odd that Aisha didn't like Your Friend"
"But she was just a friend" Jim moaned at eh elder man
"Do you think that's how Aisha sees it?"
"Gaaah. This makes No Sense." Jim said looking down at his shoes
Companion Gene put an arm round the blonde hacker's shoulders
"Welcome to the world of Women Jim."
Turning and looking up at the Outlaw Jim asked, "Were things this complicated between you and Mel?"
"Y-y-y-yeah, something like that" Gene Stammered.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Aisha, Open up, I know you're in there!" Jim said banging on her Door.
A few seconds after he had returned his practice blade to its rightful place Jim found himself in front of the C'tarl C'tarl's room.
"I'm not leaving until you speak to me Aisha!"
"What do you want Jim!" She yelled back slamming the door open. Despite looking more angry than he had ever seen her, her eyes were bloodshot red and tear marks ran down her face.
"I just.... I just wanted to say that I'm sorry," he said, looking down at the floor. "I didn't think that spending time with Hanmayo would upset you as much as it did, "And I just want you to know that, if not spending time with Hanmayo is what it takes to make you happy then that's what Ill do."
Aisha's eyes softened and a smile appeared on her face. "No I'm sorry Jim, I guess I just overreacted."
Both stood there grinning like idiots at each other for a few long moments before a cry was heard from Gene down the corridor of "Kiss her you Idiot"

Ok, please review and tell me whether any impersonation of tallent i was able to do a year ago has disappeared all together.
I just want to thank all the people who've bugged/reviewed me to get me to continue this story.
Oh yeah, truth about why not continuing this earlier....I was piloting Mecha on an alien plannet....see told you the invisible pixies were more fun :P
for the past 11(ish) monthsi have been entangled in an epic battle against the forces of pixies, invisible little gits that keep raising invisible zombies making Loughborugh a difficult place to live.....honnest.
