Hey all!
I do not own Captain Amelia or any other Treasure Planet I may refer too. They are Disney's and I respect that.
I also do not own Holly Short or anyother Artemis Fowl charcter I may use. They are Eion Cofier's and I respect that.
I give credit to treasureplanet-gurl for the use of Elina, which is her charcter.

treasureplanet-gurl : Yay! You like Artemis Fowl! I;m not very good at his character but I am trying!
lyle Mcfarland :The mouse isn't okay. I'm an Elvenwolf. I ate it, stupid. lythari? Ring a bell? Thanks anyways. You have no reason what so ever. Must I be your intelligence? Actually it probably fried itself. Mmmmm. Barbeque!
queen Sarabi :Thanks!
pepoluan : By the way. Cool name. No idea what it means though! I know. The long setences hurt my poor mind. But they were a necessary evil. Thanks!
Armitage : Yes, Doppler's in this chpater. He was oblivious to happenings before.

Yay! Thanks to all for so many reviews!

Doppler was currently working on the route they were taking. Basically they were to scare off any pirates in the area so merchant ships could easily pass. There was some fancy name for it, but it was rather stupid.
Doppler was currently in the mess hall, having just finished his soup.
What was more interesting was the two humans across from him. They didn't touch the soup, the big one whom the teenager had referred to as 'Butler' had made a meal from his back pack.
They said nothing, not even to each other. An odd paring aren't they? I wonder if they're part of the crew. The crew doesn't appear to know them
Doppler was curious but he decided it would be better to ask Amelia about the two.

Andrea was thouroughly enjoying being a cook.
"Its not half bad Elina. No mopping the decks. Just food preparation takes so long."
"So what about breakfast?"
"Toast and eggs. Throw a few purps at them."
"Purps?" Holly questioned.
The three were in the galley sitting on the counter talking. Andrea had made a serve yourself meal and was oblivious to any questions about the food.
"Purps? Hold on. I'll get you one." Andrea looked at some barrels until she found the right one.
"You want one Elina?"
"Sure."
Andrea toosed one to Holly, then Elina and returned to her counter spot and bit into the purp.
"So it's a fruit."
"Yes. The best for avioding scurvy! They last a long time and don't overripen. Well not for six months or something liek it. And over ripe ones arer great for making drinks and smoothies and things."
"Andrea, I had no idea you knew so much about food. You're scaring me."
"I'm scaring myself." Andrea and Elina broke into giggles and started a war of throwing potatoes.
Holly looked over the fruit. Shaped like a lemon, purple and the skin of a plum. She bite into it and found it sweet yet nice.
Elina stopped throwing potatoes to ask her. "You like it?"
"Yes. It's nice."
Andrea grinned. "Good, because that's the only snack permitted on this ship. The captain's not a health freak but she despises junk food."

Amelia walked down into the galley. Avens was behind her, carrying their pasta.
Andrea grinnned as they came into the galley. "Did yo ulike the pasta. Personally, the soup turned out better."
"Very amusing, Andrea. I would like some soup now."
"Very well. You too Avens?"
"Yes."
"I like your decorated galley, Andrea. Did you spend your day doing this?"
"Yes. Elina had magazines, so she ripped them out and Holly and I put them up."
"You mean Captain Short?"
"Yes. She's right beside you."
"Oh, sorry captain." Amelia said and accepted the bowl from Andrea.
They sat in an uneasy tension filled the room. Andrea was oblivious to it, as usal and was humming t herself and washing dishes. Elins was drying but slowly and was preoccupied.
Holly finished her purp and sat on the counter. She fidgeted with her locator.
Amelia glanced to Avens who was intent on remaining focused on her soup.
Andrea finished with dishes. "So, I have a question."
Everyone looked up, grateful for the distraction.
"If Elina and I are cooks, does that mean we can't fight any battles? We both need more experience even though Elina could beat me any day in a sword fight."
"You will fights battles. Hopefully there won't be any."

Amelia's words were drowned out by a crash and shouts of an attack.
