Greetings to all my faithful readers and reviewers!

I want to apoligize for the long wait between chapters...i have been working on fabricating props for my Halloween Haunt...from scratch. I promise to not make you wait so long anymore.

So, here we go then! I wnat to also tell you that as i have never been on a cruise ship i don't know how readily chocolate is kept on board a cruise ship.

This story is AU

Lastly, I love getting reviews...but alas I despise flames...so don't send them my way!

So, read on!

The kids were having the time of their life…so far. But you can never know when your parents are Ninjetti. But for the moment they sat by the pool enjoying a pepperoni and sausage pizza.

Terra was really enjoying her second slice of pizza and across from her the boys were both on their fourth slice. Terra frowned at them…they were letting the cheese hang from their mouths.

She shook her head and took a sip from her soda…before taking another bite of her pizza. That's when she got the feeling she was being watched. From under her eyelashes she raised her eyes and saw Tyler looking at her.

She smiled and lowered her eyes to take a sip of her soda.

He really was cute… He had let his curly black hair grow out and now it hung to his shoulders and she smiled to herself when she remembered the first time their eyes had met. She loved his eyes that were the color of moist chocolate brownies…and speaking of which….she suddenly had a sweet tooth.

Across from Terra, Tyler was doing his best not to stare at his secret girlfriend. Ever since they met at the Scott's wedding they had been interested….it wasn't until her mom and dad's wedding that he had gotten up the courage to make his move…and they had been 'dating' if you could call it that.

Her brother had been especially protective of her. And he had become more and more annoying ever since…

You would think after saving her life that he would have taken it easy on him.

But he was willing to take on this challenge…after all, this was a Disney cruise ship.

And so, he continued watching her…when she got up to visit the snack bar he made his move.

Terra smiled when she saw Tyler get up to follow her out of the corner of her eye.

She said nothing and continued making her way to the counter in search of chocolate.

TJ watched in muted exasperation as his best friend got up to follow his twin to the snack bar. He couldn't believe that his mom and dad hadn't picked up on their secret relationship…but he hadn't missed the love sick looks they had been exchanging.

Ugh I may just vomit if this goes on much longer.

What added to the strangeness was that in a way he could sense her thoughts. That was the part that made him feel sick. He could feel the lovey dovey stuff every time their eyes met. It had been that way since the night their powers had been awakened…

But at the moment…he was just feeling sick…well, not sick really…at this point the wasn't sure what he felt…maybe he could call his mom and talk about it…or he would if their parents weren't busy being…'together.

At that moment he felt a pang in his heart…he shook his head.

Maybe a quick workout is what I need…

And with that thought he headed for the pool.

"That will be 1.50."

Terra reached into her pocket but was stopped by Tyler. "Let me get that."

She smiled at her secret boyfriend reached into his back pocket for his wallet.

After paying for it they walked back to the table to see that TJ wasn't there. A minute later they saw him talking to some people.

It was good to see TJ was enjoying himself finally.

Terra smiled at him as she broke off a piece of chocolate and handed him a piece which he gratefully took.

As they ate their chocolate they never took their eyes off each other…

Splash!

TJ and Terra turned their heads in time to see a fight getting underway…and then they saw TJ get pummeled.

As one they sprang into action. Terra was the first one into the pool and she reached her brother's side in mere seconds. Just as she got there she saw the problem…a bigger guy was standing over them with a fist pulled back.

"Leave him alone!"

"No, he started it!"

"I don't think so. I saw you hit him."

Just then a girl came up behind him. "If that's the case, you must be as blind as well as fat!"

Terra's eyes narrowed at the blonde girl. She could feel her anger flare to life…and she was hard pressed to keep her anger from spilling out of her.

Just then TJ came up for air.

And that's when it happened. Terra saw the bully swing his fist out to hit her twin and she immediately stepped in front of it.

She felt the flash of pain as his fist connected with the side of her head and then everything went black.

Tyler got really angry when he saw his girlfriend go down and he reacted instantly. But when he made to launch himself at the bully, he heard his dad's voice in his head.

Just walk away.

So resolutely, he sneered at the older boy. "Just stay the hell away from us!"

His face burned as he heard the bully's laughing behind them. He hadn't felt so ashamed since he was an orphan. But he took a deep breathe and followed his friends out of the pool.

Tanya shivered as Adam trailed his fingers down her side and pulled her flush against him. While his hands were busy his lips were tasting the sweetness of her neck.

Tanya moaned almost quietly as she felt his searing touch on her hips. She wrapped her legs around his and felt his body melt against hers.

"Your so soft angel." Adam whispered as he pulled back. "I could touch you, caress every inch of you…all day."

His eyes darkened as his lady pushed her lips against his in a soul searing kiss that sent fire through the black ninja's veins and his hands stopped caressing her hips and instead found his way to her hair which she had pulled in a pony tail and with a little effort he pulled it free and let it cascade around them enshrouding them as they passionately made out.

The two lovers were in their own world as Adam ran his tongue against Tanya's lips requesting entrance as he ran his fingers through her hair.

His heart beat faster as she opened her mouth letting him in. The passion intensified as he gently explored her mouth committing each crevice and contour to memory. He heard her moan and his stomach tightened. He could just begin to feel his nether regions tightening…but then he remembered that she had said that she didn't want to make love yet.

And so reluctantly he pushed those thoughts away and instead wrapped her in his arms. Tanya kissed him and lay her head on his chest…trying to regain her breath.

"I love you Adam. I could lay in your arms forever."

Adam grinned at her before allowing his eyes to close.

Tyler opened the door as TJ carried his sister in. As he closed the door, TJ gently placed his sister on the bed and sat down next to her.

"Terra? You got to wake up!"

Tyler sat on the edge of the bed as he watched TJ take her hand in his and close his eyes. He cold feel the energy in the room as TJ sent power into his sister in an attempt to wake her up…a second later she moaned and opened her eyes.

"Ugh…why does my head hurt?"

"You did something stupid." TJ said scowling. "You decided to play hero and took a hit to the head…a hit that was meant for me. Why did you do that!"

Terra winced and clenched her eyes shut. Her brother's loud voice was giving her a headache…or maybe that bully hit her harder then she thought.

"Could you please whisper? Your voice is making my head hurt."

TJ scowled and turned away from his sister. That's when Tyler decided to speak up.

"I know I am not Ninjetti like the two of you are…but I know that until this cruise is over…we will have to deal with those bully's again and again. So, there's no reason to try and avoid them."

"So what are you suggesting?" TJ raged at them. That I stick around and watch the two of you be all sweet and sickening over each other!"

"What the heck are you talking about?" Terra asked finally able to open her eyes.

"You two. I know you guys are together! You may have fooled mom and dad…but I can sense every emotion and thought that goes through your head. It makes me feel sick!"

"Well guess what!" Terra raged. "I have the same ability! I can tell when you were upset…I was the first to know when you were in trouble…I was just waiting for you to take care of that guy."

"And than you decided that I couldn't handle it! I could have taken him myself! I don't need my sister to save me!"

With that he fumed out the door. Tyler grabbed him the back of this shirt and slammed him into the wall.

"Did you not hear what I just said? That jerk is still out there! If we stick together he won't bother us." Then Tyler lowered his voice. "Just cause you're Ninjetti doesn't mean you can use it to attack someone, no matter how much of an jerk he is…there are other ways to beat them."

TJ closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "The guy is all muscle. How can we beat him if we're not allowed to fight?"

Tyler smirked as he released his friend…

"Brains over brawn…we aren't allowed to fight…if they give us any more trouble we will just have to find a way to outsmart him."

TJ was silently taking in his friend's words. "That could be fun."

"My thoughts exactly…but for now lets see what fun we can have…I brought my Playstation with me…"

As the boys played their games Terra was in a world of her own though she masked it by sitting on her stomach watching her brother and boyfriend play their games.

"…You must be as blind as well as fat!"

But that's not possible! I work out every morning! I'm just as fit as TJ and Tyler are.

Then she remembered that chocolate bar she had and suddenly she didn't feel so well…

TJ paused the game…he was getting a strange feeling in the pit of his stomach…

What's going on?

Suddenly he felt despair and frustration…

He turned around. "Terra is something wrong? I'm suddenly getting a sick feeling in my stomach."

Tyler looked at them confused. "Is there something I should know?"

TJ didn't break his gaze as he explained. "It's our Ninjetti powers. As twins we already have a bonds…our Ninjetti abilities only amplified it. When she's sick or upset I can sense and sometimes share the feelings…like now, for some reason she's feeling sick to her stomach…and I can feel the same way."

Terra flushed. "Would you mind not reading my mind for once? It's probably seasickness or something…"

"And it's just now catching up with you?" Tyler asked skeptically.

"Look, none of us have ever been on a boat before…what do any of us know about sea sickness? I think I just want a nap…I will probably feel better later."

Once Terra fell asleep, the weird feeling in TJ's stomach vanished and he was able to focus on the game.

-Later that night-

Adam and Tanya sat across the table from the children in the vast dining room of Triton's. It was an enjoyable experience with all the wonderful food.

For all of them this was a new experience…such fine dining was a first for them and they wanted to try a little of everything!

As the boys ate Tanya gazed curiously at Terra who was just picking at her food. She had barely eaten her chicken salad…and she seemed to be in her own little world…

This just isn't normal.

Tanya had noticed during the time they spent at the condo that Terra had an appetite just like her father…and she was a kid…she should have polished off her plate by now…and already be asking for desert.

What to do…

"Hey Terra…what kind of desert do you like? I hear they have a delicious chocolate truffle cake."

"Oh…well I'm not in the mood for chocolate. I had lots of it earlier. I think I'll just finish this salad. It tastes awesome!"

TJ wasn't fooled…he had felt the sudden panic in his own mind.

What was going on?

These feelings weren't new to him. What puzzled him was the reason for his sisters sudden panic. He knew that she should have no reason to feel any fear here.

This was a vacation on the most magical place on earth second only to the actual Magic Kingdom. From that moment he resolved to keep an eye on his sister…what ever was wrong with her he would find out.

He was her brother and what ever was wrong with her was his responsibility to find out.

So, what do you think of it so far? I know this sounds like Terra is gonna go anorexic on us...but I promise it won't go that far...TJ already know's something's wrong...This is just a little trial for her to overcome.

As for the boys...well, you'll just have to wait and find out!

See you next chapter!
