The next month felt like it went by faster then a day. Big Brother showed me how to use Blueberry to send messages back and forth and He showed me how to get food in case something happened. Hunting I understood and got almost imediately. I was having fun, untill it was only a week before the ship took off. So we started to pack. I insisted on only bringing one suitcase on the trip, i could easily wash my clothes and get them dried. I knew how to do laundry. Finally the last day came and i could not sleep i was so energised and ready for the trip, I just knew it was going to be a lot of fun. I closed my eyes trying to force myself to go to sleep but it was hard. Blueberry curled up with me and after a while we finally fell asleep. The next morning i woke up to Matt's pancakes and i smiled walking downstairs and sat down still half asleep and still in my night clothing.
"Morning Alfred!"
I simply smiled "Morning Mattie"
He set the plate in front of me then wraped his arms around me "Do you really have to leave today? Do you really have to leave me?"
I closed my eyes and hugged him back "I'm sorry Mattie...I want to...i want to see what is outside Big Brother and Daddy's home"
"I do to Alfred...but going to this new place...its so far away...i wont be able to see you anymore.."
I hugged him tighter "I promise, I will come back and visit"
He nods but doesnt let go
"Umm Mattie? I need to eat..."
"Oh yeah...sorry..."
He let go and let me eat. Not long later Big Brother and Daddy came down and hugged me tight. It made me feel like i was leaving for a lifetime...I was only going to be gone for a little while. I wasnt leaving forever...
~~~~~~~~~~Boat Departure~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We had rushed to the port the boat was leaving from and Big Brother gave me my ticket. Everyone pulled me into a huge group hug and Big Brother looked like he was trying not to cry.
"I will write, I promise"
Big brother nods and kisses my head softly
"I believe you..."
I smiled and the boat let off two short blasts and Daddy had to pull Big Brother off of me and he held him close.
"Mon petit, you must go or you will miss the boat."
I nod and grab my bag and walk up the plank. Blueberry was laying comfortably on my head, no one could see her so she was fine. Once i presented my ticket he gave me half back and told me the other half was for when i was to come home, I would present that half of the ticket and would be able to board any boat home. I got to the side not yet ready to go to where my room would be and i stood there and instantly i saw my family.
"Big Brother! Daddy! Mattie!"
Daddy nuged Big Brother and pointed towards me and he turned and looked at me smiling. He waved at me and smiled as i waved back. Daddy and Mattie also waved to me and it made me happy. I loved my familiy a lot. I could not believe i was actually leaving home. Three long blasts where heard and i winced being nearby and it was loud. Minty flew up to me and gave me a hug then spoke to me
"He says that he will miss you, and he wants you to be good. Also when you will be coming home, to send a message and he will be here waiting for you"
I nod and gave Minty a hug
"I will...and im always good."
I smiled and watched him fly down and give the message to Big Brother and he smiled and waved. I waved back as i felt the boat lurch and start moving
"I love you all! I will see you soon!"
They waved back, Big Brother yelled something but i couldnt hear as another blast was heard.
