I came out of the officers' stateroom and seen a small crowd formed on the quarter deck. I peered over the side of the bridge and seen the mantavor Scroop thrust the new cabin boy on to the mast. 'Oh Crap!' I thought and turned and quickly made my way to Amelia's staterom where I knew she and dad were. "Dad!" i yelled when I burst through the door.

"Jeanine!how many times must I tell you to knock?" "Dad , Amelia Excuse my intrution on your meeting but right now Mister Scroop is turning our Cabin boy in to a punching bag!" I snapped amelia's mouth dropped open and dad shot up and outthe door tell me to follow.

"go make sure he's okay Jen." "dad-" Dad didn't leave me much room to argue...Not that I didn't care about the guy but he did diss my God-Mother. "Hey you okay?" i asked him kneeling down to help him up. "Yeah , Yeah im fine-" He looked up and for a moment our eyes met. He pushed out of the hold I had him in when I was helping him up and leaned against the mast.

"am i clear mister Scroop?" i her dad say and turned and seen he and Scroop having a glare contest. I looked over at mister Silver and seen he was glareing at Scroop as well. but Scroop seemed to listen and say , "Transsparently." With that dad stood back up and called for me to follow . I looked at the cabin boy then to Silver. "I'll be back." I mumbled to him and left behind dad.

When I opened our stateroom door I herd Silver berating him for fighting..But it haddn't been entirely his fault but rules were rules I suppose.

Dad was writing in his log book and I was trying to draw out a sketch , Drawing a been my thing since I was very young. But everytime I started to do something the Cabin boy came back into my mind , I felt sorta sorry for him , he didn't know anyone of this ship except the doctor and it was his first day and they crew was trying to kill him. I realized how late it was getting and I need to check on the ships mechanisms.

"Dad I'll be right back." "alright Jen." He said still writing and stratching on a other pieace of paper words he couldn't spell which weren't many that he couldn't.

I walked outside and seen it was now dark. I seen the cabin boy talking to Silver's pet morph. I shook my head and climbed the shrouds and looked at the sails solar panels. "they look good still.." It was a rather boring job at times my favorite part was the mechanics working on the wiring and engine that was fun. I was climbing down when i over herd Silver say , "Yer papa not de teaching sorts?" "No...He's the taken off and never coming back sorts.." 'Boy do I know thefeeling."

i was the perfect example of a girl raised by her father hints my love for mechanics. "Well since the captains put you in my Charge in gonna be poundin' a few skills in that thick head of yers. " "what?" "you wont so much as eat , sleep , or skratch yer bum with out me say so." ' Skratch his bum? Okay alittle too far..' "Don't do me any favors!" Jim shouted 'oh yeah thats his name Jim..'

Finally Silver left so i got down. "How long have you been there?" He asked when my feet touched the ground. "Long enough." I said simply. "I'm guessing you over herd all that." "Just a bit.." "Listen .. i think we got off on the wrong foot.." "Try yard." "anyway let's try agin ? I mean we are the only humans on this ship.." "Accually you are." "what ?" "I'm hybrid." when he looked confused and stuck out my hand.

"Cadet Jen Arrow here! Technitions expert on this fine vessle." I stated in mock pride such a voice amelia would have used . "Jen Arrow - Oh Arrow , wait..Mister Arrow's your father?" "Yes sir." "...thats ...new..im Jim Hawkins.." "nice to meet you mister Hawkins." I figured I might as well be polite right? "So uh-" He began when Dad called for me. "Well I need to go..See you arund Cabin boy." "Later Cadet."

After I got ready for bed that night dad said knocked on my door. "Jen?" "Come in dad." "Jen i want you to stay away from the crew as much as you can. I do not trust them on this ship and sure as heck don't trust them around you." "dad you dont have to 'protect' me. Im not alittle girl." "You herd me Jen." "Dad I know , chill out . I don't like them anyways." "I seen you talking to the cabin boy." He smurked.

"Yeah okay so did you." "Nice looking lad-" "Dad...do not go there. " I didn't trust the word love...I wasn't against it but I seen what happens when one person falls out of it..."Well good night Jeanine." "night daddy." I plopped down in my covers and fell asleep.
