Hey, everyone! I love that you like reading the story as much I like writing it. By the way, I'm wearing the outfit I described as I type this. Enjoy! Reviews encouraged!

Chapter 7

I woke up early the next day. I put my slippers on, and climbed down the ladder to the bunk bed. I looked around, wondering what I should do. I automatically eliminated the arcade, since it's too loud, and the Rainbow Loom, since I wasn't getting any inspiration. The only thing left to do was read until Mikey woke up. I went to my purse, where my book was. I picked it up, took my book out, found my spot, and began to read. I heard something on the 1st page of Chapter 7 of A Long Reach. It was Mikey walking to the bathroom. I shrugged and kept reading.

I was starting to get hungry, so I went to the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. I grabbed the sliced bread, the margarine, a butter knife, and a plate. I went over to the toaster, plugged it in, and put the sliced bread inside. Meanwhile, I put the margarine, butter knife and plate down in front of the microwave. Then I sat at the table, and continued reading.

The toaster popped, drawing my attention away from the book. I took the toast out, buttered one of the slices, put the other slice on top of the buttered one, brought the plate to the table, and began to eat. Mikey was up by time I had finished eating, and knew I was an early riser. He walked into the kitchen as I was washing the plate.

"Morning, Camryn."

"Morning, Mikey." I said while drying the plate I used, and putting it back. "Have a good night's sleep?"

"I had a dream that I was in Wonderland, and you were Dorothy."

"That was some dream." I remarked.

"Tell me about it. I was the dog!"

I started laughing as he told me the rest of his dream.

Mikey had started eating his Froot Loops by time he had finished.

I went to the bedroom, and got dressed. A few minutes later, I came out wearing a red short sleeved shirt with grey built-in sleeves. There is a view of a soccer player with the number 8 on his jersey kicking a soccer ball from behind, The athlete himself and the ball colored orange. There is another white soccer ball in the top left corner of the shirt. It has the number 13 in the centre. Above, and encircling the ball, were the words 'GAP ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT' and underneath, between two stars, were the words 'EST. MCMLXIX.' On the right on the shirt, in big letters, SOCCER was written vertically and sideways, the O next to the players left arm

I was wearing jeans, black and white Nikes, A white ring with a gap in the middle that I never take off, a black ring by Calvin Klein that I do take off, A silver Rainbow Loom Bracelet, hoop earrings, my cross, a necklace with a blue heart surrounded by other things, and finally, my middle back length brown hair was in its usual braid with a lot of hairspray to keep it in place.

Mikey and I left the ship, and went to explore the town. It was nice and serene. There were cherry blossom trees everywhere. There were shops, a hospital, some houses, and atop a hill, Master Yoshi's house. We climbed the hill, and Mikey knocked on the door.

A few minutes later, Tang Shen answered the door.

"Good morning, you two! You're just in time for our party!"

Mikey's eyes widened with joy. He loved parties!

"So, what are you guys celebrating?" I asked.

"I am so glad you asked, sweetie. We are celebrating our daughter's arrival!"

"SHE'S HERE?! CAN I HOLD HER?" Mikey asked excitedly.

Tang Shen giggled. "Not yet, Michelangelo. But she will be soon."

We went in, and I took my shoes and socks off. When we entered the living room, we saw a whole ton of people which we could only assume was either Tang Shen or Master Splinter's extended family. Or, from the looks of things, both.

"Whoah." Mikey said.

"This is a lot of people." I added.

We both stood there, watching everyone talk to each other in Japanese.
