Hey all,
Wow... Sixteen chapters... Amazing.. It gets quite good in this chapter.
Or I think so...
I do not own Captain Amelia or Jim or any other Treasure Planet character I may refer to. They are Disney's and I respect that.
I do own.... Andrea, David, Mandy, Kep, Terry, Cadet Hurlt, Cadet Katherine Starth, Colonel Fredrick, and the cadets. Also Heather, Mary, Admiral Cangot, Chad Chain, George and Chris. Lotsa fun. On to the story...
Dinner Party Part Four
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Andrea was glad the meal was over with. She hadn't enjoyed the food at all. What she would have given for a simple purp. Chad had been interesting to talk to though. Heather was glaring at her.
"Come on, Andrea. Tea time for all the adults."
Andrea got up and followed Chad. Many others their age followed. Chad led them down a hall into a large room. Rec Room. Pool tables, air hockey, fooseball and Intergalactic Frish. Andrea liked IF and she made her way over to it. Before she reached it all the spots were taken up. She shrugged and grabbed a cue for pool. Heather, Chris, Mary, George, and Chad joined her.
"Teams!" Heather called out and went beside Mary. Andrea shrugged. Chad grabbed her arm and Chris and George went together.
They played a few games with Chad and Andrea taking the lead of winning 3 to 1 to 0. They had three, Chris and George, one and Heather and Mary, zero!
Andrea had been a good sport though she was finding it hard to keep her mouth shut. Heather surprised her by speaking first.
"So did you cheat or do you have some fantastic story with a Captain to back you up about how you're so good at pool?"
"Sorry, its pure talent unlike your pathetic attempt."
"Oh sorry I'm not good enough for the daughter of the wonderful female Captain."
"You should be." Andrea smirked and couldn't stop herself from continuing. "You shouldn't talk, you appear more intelligent when you don't, but don't worry, its not by much."
"Shut your mouth Randon!"
'I' m afriad that if we get down to who started it and such, I will most assuradely blame you. I, with my high blood ranking wouldn't be subjected to such paltry fights."
Heather made an odd sound of anger and rushed at Andrea. Her claw like hands were up and ready. Andrea hissed and whipped out of the way by jumping onto the pool table.
"So, you are afraid of fighting randon. Come down and take it like the strong cat you must be! Or are you a scaredy cat?"
"Me afriad? Ha! I was only using a defense mechinism!"
"Andrea get off of there! Stop it you two. Just get away from each other!" Chad called out.
Andrea jumped off the table opposite of Heather. "Very well then. I shouldn't let myself, the daughter of a navy captain get angered."
Heather was furious. She thought of no consequences just one thing. To hurt Andrea. She ran at Andrea, who yowled in surprise and turned and ran. Heather pursued. Chad tried desperately to catch Heather but failed. Andrea was running around the room, avoiding Heather's huge claw hands. mary stuck her foot out and tripped Andrea who sprawled onto the floor. Heather swung a claw at her the tip of it nicking Andrea's cheek. The fall had more impact on Andrea though. her side began throbbing and she was srue the internal bleeding had started up again.
She swallowed and struggled to get up. She fell back again clutching ehr side. Heather stared.
'Whats wrong with you? Hurt the poor kitty badly?"
Andrea struggled for words. "I.. injured.. pirates.. fought.. Silver!" She screamed Silver's name and jumped up. hetaher swung her claw but Andrea jumped backwards. Her body throbbed but she had adapted focusing on the task at hand forgetting the pain. Heather swung more rapidly now. Andrea dodged and began to run again. Heather pursued.
"You can't run forever!"
Andrea kept running and called back. "I can try!" And she ran out of the room with Heather following and Chad and the rest behind her.
Amelia sipped the coffee greatfully. Finally something she recognized. Jim came over to her.
"So, when can we leave?"
Amelia gave him a small smile. "When Andrea shows up which shuld be pretty soon."
"Good. I can't stand this gossip."
"About me, I presume?"
"Yes, all about you. Everyone is trying to guess who you married. A few suggested Colonel Fredrick becasue you like Navy style."
Amelia choked on the coffee and stared.
"I'm not lying."
"How dare they suggest such a thing!"
Jim shrugged. "Don't slouch, Hawkins. They watch you like hawks here."
Jim looked at her to see if she had made a pun. Her smirk told him she did but she wasn't paying attention. She looked to the entrance to the grand hall, her ears swiveled.
"What is it?"
Amelia for once her in her life, just lifted her hand up and pointed. Jim looked in that direction and stared.
Andrea ran down the hall her back hurting now. The dress wasn't ripped yet, to her luck. But she was bleeding non stop and the crimson droplets were staiing the white marble floor. Not that she cared. Heather, in her opinion, had gone insane. Andrea slipped and went staight for the wall. She had had enough of this running around. The one thing she had inherited from her father, she used it now.
Andrea began to howl. She sat on the floor and howled her pain and want for the torment to end. Hetaher stopped and stared but slowly edged closer. Andrea closed her eyes and howled louder. She stood up, still howling. Chad was there now, and he had a look of interest on his face.
She opened her eyes and was surprised to see a Cascona at her side. The Cascona grabbed her wrist and pulled.
"Come on!"
Andrea ran beside her. Heather pursued but the Cascona turned in a split second, raked her claws on Heather's arm and turned again still running.
Andrea smiled despite her dispair a few moments before. "You have to teach me that!"
The Cascona smiled and nodded, and kept running. They ran right to the grand hall not realizing it, they stood there at the entrance, Andrea bleeding, the Cascona defiant. At that moment Andrea realized she must be a Captain, too. The whole party was silent staring. Until a cry broke out.
"Andrea!' Amelia yelled. But her gazed turned to the Cascona beside Andrea. Amelia gaped and screamed. "Helen!"
"Amelia!" The Cascona shouted, added a loud yowl and ran to her. Amelia held out her arms and hugged the Cascona and everyone stared. But Andrea just smiled, happy.
