Chapter 24
She was bored.
And they were getting bored of her, she could tell.
This had happened before. Everyone would ignore her. She'd be left out on her own...excluded.
She knew that they didn't really need a doctor (not that she could really be called a doctor) or anything like the sorts on board. There was always one not too far away...and they always made house calls.
There wasn't much she could do, nothing productive to help them anyways.
She ended up playing pretty happy little house wife, doing the cleaning, cooking and the occasional laundry (if the boys remembered to bring it out of their rooms)
She didn't know how to do anything else like the others. Fighting, Flying, Maintenance or reading the maps evaded her (not that she didn't know how to read a map. She still didn't know the world enough to be able to read the maps) and the others obviously weren't willing to teach her.
They obviously weren't all that keen on doing chores either, which was why they were more than happy to have a maid. It just meant that they didn't have to do anything.
She supposed they had "other important things to do". Well, Finn was just lazy.
Although she counted these excuses as they just were, Excuses!
They had obviously done said chores before she'd arrived on the ship and were glad now that they didn't have to bother.
If they could find a way to have someone or something, other than her, do everything else, except what they enjoyed, she reckoned they would take up the offer!
Whether or not they liked to believe it, they were only children and didn't know how to look after themselves completely and whether or not she liked it, she was the responsible adult with a mother complex!
Stork had been the oldest until she got here, but he was still just as much a child as the rest of them!
Then again, the same could be said for her.
She was only a few years older than him and she knew she wasn't completely capable of looking after herself, let alone a couple of kids. No matter what she thought.
All she knew was her patience was wearing thin!
They had landed on Atmosia, a major Terra, earlier that day. But they were only there to pick up supplies.
Blinx was seated on the runway, just watching the world move forward around her.
She'd been practicing with her powers like she had been expressly told to by Digger and she'd managed to successfully move objects by her will on numerous occasion.
Now that she had that down pat, she was focusing on teleporting things from one place to another, which would eventually lead to her teleporting herself.
But for the moment, with a mountain of pebbles by her side, she was content with skipping them individually across the grass.
All was quiet and peaceful...until there was a roaring of engines not too far away from her and a group of vehicles, all painted red, appeared in front of her.
"You there! Can you tell us? Are the Storm Hawks on board?"
'If they knew who I was, they sure as hell wouldn't be saying 'you there'...then again they'd probably throw me in a cell'
She looked at them lazily "No, they're not. They went into town about an hour ago"
The one that spoke, nodded and they all took off again.
'Well that was quick, to the point...and a waste of my time! Why do I feel so negative and bitter all the time now?'
She'd started skipping stones again when the sounds of screaming reached her ears.
Looking over to the township, she saw smoke, and laser fire.
'That's more than likely why those guys were looking for them. Well they made their trip for nothing'
She sat for a few minutes, pondering what she should do, then, dashed into the Condor and her room.
