emilie watched as kale left and looked at tom and smiled "guess its just you and me unless you need to leave then i guess i will just go look around the ship." she smilied and looked around "unless you want some help for dinner i can cook you know."

Tarra smiled, "come and cook with me. It will be fun and we can get to know each other better." she said as she directed her towards the kitchen. It was small but it was packed with every inch of all kinds of food. "and I would like some help for a change makeing food for the whole crew." she said happly and was glad that she was staying.

"alright i will help." emilie was looking around "so what are we making." she looked around the kitchen "how many things do we need oh and thanks i dont think i would be able to have stayed here if you werent their with me and talked to him."

Tarra laughed as she got out some lobster and crabs. "the captain may look tought but he is really a big softy. I should know, I can usually get the better side of him all the time and get him to agree with anything I say. He doesn't even know I am a women either, so life here is pretty good." she siad as she started to cook the lobser and crab, "and we are makeing lobster and crab stew, it is the captains favorit."

emilie started to help cook the lobster "the captain really does sound like a good guy to bad i was to nervous to see it." she looked at the lobster and the crab she didnt like the sounds they made in the pot they sounded like they were screaming but she didnt care as long as she was talking to someone while they were screaming it didnt bother her as much "we should make some more for the rest." she thought about the others and the first person that came to mind was kale "so what do you think about kale he is so cute."

Tarra laughed, she finally had someone to talk to about cute guys on this ship and yet no one had caught her eyes. "yeah he is cute but not my type, he is more like a brother to me since I have been on this ship for so long." she said as she smiled at Emillie. She had forgotten what it was like to talk about who you liked with someone.

"oh you poor dear being stuck with a buch of dirty men has sucked the woman right out of you hasnt it." emilie grabed tarra and pulled her into a hug "dont worry emilie is here to change that i will make you a woman if it kills me."

Tarra smiled and hugged back. It was nice since she didn't remember the last time she hugged anyone besides the people she was tossing over board. "yeah you could say that and I think just by you being here has helped." she said as she smiled at her friend and let her women voice out. it was a nice sound to hear after all the years pretending to be something your not.

"yeah so now that im here you know the captain will let women on so why dont you come clean and tell everyone your secret i mean its not like they will kick you off the captain thinks so highly of you i saw it and your strong enough that if anyone of the others give you any crap you can just beat the shit out of them." emilie knew she was telling the truth and that it would be a good idea if tarra became tarra and not tom "but i understand you have been tom for so long you probably dont want to just give it up."

Tarra smiled liked the idea of comeing clean. "yeah It will be tough to be Tarra around them but Tom is apart of me so I am not sure if there will be much difference." she said and pulled off her bandana, letting her black hair tumble down to her back and smiled at her. "but I think I will enjoy being me for once and I can still break anyones back here." she said as she started to take the meat out of the lobster and crab and put it in the soup.

emilie was pleased she knew that tarra would be alot happier as herself and not as tom she was helping pulling the meat out of the crab when something came to her "you know im wearing one of your dressing next stop your comming with me and your going to wear one of mine." she giggled at the idea of tarra all dolled up with a corset so tight she couldnt breath "you will look wonderfull." she thought about it her last postion on a map and the closet land to that would have to of been traders island and father had a home he never used their anymore and it was full of her clothes "we must be close to traders island am i right because if so and we stop thats were you will get your dress as payment."

tarra laughed, it was girly and sweet just like any other girls. "okay but then I get to dress you up in men clothing. You would be surprised at how comfortable they feel and how easy it is to move in them." he said and smiled at her. "but in the mean time how about if I teach you how to fight and defend yourself agenst these idiots. Things can get really bad when they are drunk." she said and pulled off the bagg shirt she had on. Under it was a black tang top and she looked more like a women.

((if you want to know what she looks like here

but with blonde hair

emilie laughed "we will see about the boy clothes thing im not so sure i would like it i like being elegant it will be intristing to see me in anything other then a dress to be honest but as for fighting i can handle myself for awhile drunks are no problem their like children just alittle bit of force and they will bend." she snaped a lobsters leg and plucked out the meat "so untill this is done what shall we do."

Tarra smiled at her, "anything we want. THis ship is very layed back and I usualy head out to the front of the boat and watch the ocean." he said as she smiled at her. "but what do you want to do. I am good with doing anything really."

emilie thought about it for a second then anwsered "i think i would like to look around i still dont know the ship well at all and i would like to that way i could get around without any help." she thought that sounded like a good idea but if tarra didnt want to she would just go off on her own and hopfully make it back in time for dinner.

Tarra smiled and nodded, "sounds like a plan and it will be a good time to show everyone my real side." she said as she looked at Emilie. She knew that everyone on the ship would drop there mouths to see her like this. Tom, the man that everyone knew as the best figher and cook they had was a girl.

emilie laughed "i wounder how many of them will not really think its actually you." she started to walk out of the room and pointed "lets start that way." she thought about were she had been and thought that this was were the others slept "mabye we can get kale while we are at it he shouldnt sleep this late in the day its not healthy."

Tarra laughed, "I bet more then half of them will ask where I cam from." she said and smirked slightly when she heard Kales name. "that boy can sleep as much as he wants and never get enough. Maybe we can sneak up on him and scare him." she said with a smile and remembered when she had done that once.

"oh how could you scare him......ok what do i have to do." emilie giggled at the thought of kale falling to the floor scared by two girls "this should be fun but as for never getting enough sleep thas just not right no person should sleep that long and besides doesnt he want to spend time with two hot young girls." she laughed and wraped her arm around tarra and started down to the boy they were about to either scare to death or give a naughty dream to she hadnt decided.

Tarra laughed and wrapped a arm around Emilie. Some of the other men on the ship looked over at them and started at Tarra trying to figure out where she came from. "well right now he will probably be taking a nap. So I usually show a live fish down his shirt or scream into his ear that a fire is going on or dug a bucket of sea water on him." she said and those weren't even some of the worst ones that she had done.

"lets try a new one only a woman can do." emilie laughed and winked at all the men they passed until they got to kales bed then she bent to were her lips were a inch from his ear and moaned "oh such a strong and handsome man." she rubbed his chest then after a second of that she slaped him "wake up pipsqueek" she screemed.

"Holy-!"
Kale sat up suddenly, slamming his head into the bunk above him.
"Ow," he hissed, glaring at Emilie. He reached a tanned hand up to rub his forehead. "What did you do that for?" The lithe youth flung himself out of bed, tackling Emilie to the ground. "You'll pay for that, Em!"
It was then that he caught sight of "Tom." Rat stared at her for a moment, squinting his brown eyes. Still sitting on top of the girl, he brushed stray brown hair away from his face. "Alright, I'm still dreaming, right?" Kale laughed. "Because I am really disoriented right now. Em," he paused, "Tom. What's going on?"

"not tom tarra and well get off of me please and i will tell you what happened cutie." emilie giggled at his reaction it was funny to see him like that but that was just her.

Kale looked back down to Emilie, and blushed a bit. "Sorry," he said, "I thought you said something . . . I was probably just dreaming." Standing, he offered a hand to the woman.
"Tarra . . .?" The young man shook his head. "No way. No. Tom has been on the ship for a long time now, there is no way he's a she."

"yup tarra has been a woman this whole time hiding it because well because i dont know but since im here i convined her to come out." emilie got up and dusted herself off "well lets just say i might have said some things in your dream." she winked and blew a kiss at kale "tarra why dont you explaine it yourself about why you been hiding."
