Will you love me when all that's left of me are my scars?
Will you love me when dark blinds my eyes?

Will you still love me when I become only a dry shell of a girl I used to be?
Tell me,
Will you love me?
When my eyes start to leak a flowing river just when you are about to burst with flames?

Look into my eyes, tell me what you see?
Am I still the same,or are you disappointed in me?
They used to speak softly, show you words from my heart.
Now it's like they're screaming, tearing your heart apart.

Sixteen days?!?!?

The shortest shipping time by sea between London and Seattle is 16 days.

Its like I've stepped back to medieval times!

It was hard enough getting onboard! They're really paying attention.I had no idea there would be so much crew here just for loading.The cargo was being inspected carefully.

Not a option.

Luckily,I'm a good swimmer.

Thanks again,Grams.

I jumped in down the dock,where no one was around,barely breaking the water.Icy.I swam underwater to the back of the ship,then climbed up berthing ropes.I looped one leg over the railing,carefully checking all areas around me,no one,then tried wringing myself out the best I could,slipping my shoes off.
Couldn't leave a wet trail to where I was headed.

Well,cargo containers are out.
Let's think.

Stowaways hide in several places; empty containers, concealed behind fake walls, or even next to ship's rudder, in the engine room, paint locker or steering flat.

That's what I am,a stowaway.
No.Im Gabriella.I know who I am,no matter what that doc says,and I do what I have to do.
No one stops me.No one ever
will.

Engine room, definitely.

I made my way below deck, undetected,grabbing a bag of apples from one container that had busted open.

I've survived on less.

It's okay,little one.I'll keep you safe.

"No worries,darling."Loki said, shape shifting into the flight attendant,making her scream into the gag he shoved in her mouth,
"I have no doubt you will be
discovered,by the least at days end."

She struggled against the wires he jerked from the wall and bond her with.It was useless.

He held his Tempad in front of
her face,gave her a wink,and wiped her memory.

Perhaps the tales of your skill
and cunning have been greatly
exaggerated,my Queen?

Loki walked straight past security,
boarding the plane.

Did you really think I would not discover your little plan?Taking
Liebecks credit cards!So obvious!

He began searching passengers
faces.
