When I awoke the next day the dream had been forgotten. I stood and pulled on my clothes then began to walk around the room. It was fairly sized and furnished comfortably. I sat at the vanity and began to brush my hair, a fruitless effort sense I couldn't see how it looked. I sighed and pulled it into a bun, or what resembled a bun anyway. I thought for a moment about what Skinner had said the night before, but only for a moment, he seemed like a flirt.
A knock came at my door, Mina was there. "Your sister is going to wake up soon," she said simply. I followed her back to the hospital. Jekyll and Skinner were sitting there waiting.
I crossed the room and looked down at Angie. The purple color that surrounded her was better than it had been the night before. I heard her stirring, I held my breath. "Hey 'Phiri," she whispered faintly.
"Hello," I answered. She tried to sit up, and collapsed onto the pillows.
"Where am I?" she asked hoarsely.
"Your safe," answered Jekyll. "You're on board the Nautilus."
"Ah," she said. "This is some strange usage of the word safe I had not previously been aware of."
She looked around the room; she caught sight of Mina and Skinner. "Why is there a half naked man over there?"
Skinner swore, and I heard him fumbling with the fastenings on his leather jacket.
"Can you see Mr. Skinner?" asked Mina confused.
"Well yeah he's kind of standing right there," answered Angie.
Jekyll seemed worried. "Perhaps we should call Alan," he suggested. "After all he did say he wanted to be notified the moment she woke up." He reached for a radio trying to ignore the argument going on behind him.
"It's not possible!" Skinner was shouting at Angie. "No one's been able to see me in five years!"
"Well there is a first time for everything!" Angie returned hotly.
Quartermain's voice crackled over the radio. "How can I help you Doctor?"
"I just thought you should know that the other girl has woken up," answered Jekyll.
"Excellent, Sawyer, Nemo and I will be down in a few moments."
"And bring some pants for Skinner."
Fifteen minutes later the entire league was sitting in the hospital. They had just told Angie and myself the story of how they met. The recruitment, M, Skinner, Venice, Grey, Mongolia, Moriarty, it all seemed too fantastic to be true. I could feel the energy and excitement radiating off Angie. I braced my self for what I knew was coming next. "I want to help you," she said.
"What can you do?" asked Quartermain.
Angie fell silent for a moment, concentrating. Suddenly the water in a nearby pitcher began to lift it's self out of it's container. It hovered over and hung in the air about a foot above the heads of the League members.
"Extraordinary," said Nemo.
"I can't see why they shouldn't be allowed to join," said Quartermain. "As soon as we get some proof of identification."
Angie looked at me, "Did you show them the photograph?" I nodded. "Then I don't see how mush more proof you need?"
"Never the less we are on route to London right now," said Nemo. "During the remainder of your journey on board the Nautilus I would be honored to have the two of you as my guests."
"Thank you Captain," I answered. "Your hospitality has been overwhelming."
"Perhaps we should leave the two of you alone for a moment," suggested Jekyll.
When they had left I turned to Angie. "What do they look like?" I asked.
"Which one do you want to know about?" she asked.
"All of them," I said. "I want to complete the pictures."
"Well, Sawyer is about my age. He looks like a true American cowboy and has wavy hair, jaw length. Quartermain looks to be about fifty he has a beard and he dresses like he's on a safari. Nemo is Indian, he also had a beard, but it's longer than Quartermain's and his moustache curls up at the ends. Mina seems like the perfect British Gentlewoman, the two of you should get along fine, but she's dark. Jekyll looks like a typical English doctor. Skinner… he's interesting, bald and he wears dark glasses."
I smiled, "You like Sawyer."
She blushed and nodded.
