(Enjoy!)

(Rose)-

Okay, when Brian said meet us at the boat docks, you wonder which one exactly is he talking about, because mostly there's a ton of boat docks around and away from here. I didn't know which one he meant, so I asked Henry about it. He says its out east. And it was going to be a very long drive down there, Henry got his car and I got my old bike attached in the back of his car before we left then I hopped in... I got that bike while I was working for Martin to go places, before I retired all by myself after he was defeated.

"How long is this drive going to be? And how exactly are we supposed to get there by six O'clock before sundown? What does he think I am? An old, messed up superhero?" I asked Henry bewildered and in frustration to figure out what we should really do.

"Hold your horses! I know how you feel Rose, but we'll get there in time before the boat leaves in one or two days... Besides, at least things can't get any worse." Henry said coolly.

"Sure they can't... We're gonna need more than two people on our journey to get where we need to be." I said.

"Why, are they not enough?" He asked me curiously.

"I didn't say that!..." I replied in frustration. "I just said that if we're gonna need to get that amulet to erase my memories, then we're gonna need more back up..." 

"Good thing that you said something like that, because I've already did that and told them where to meet us!..." I heard Henry tell me.

"Who?!..." I asked him, bewildered.

***

I looked at the list that he handed over to me to check it.

Oh great!... Just what we need... A mechanic, a genius, an assassin, a doctor, some muscle, and someone else to mess with on our trip!...

Wait a minute... One of them looks familiar... Is that Martin or is that Jargonot? What I remember back then is that Martin wanted to get even with Jargonot and his master William. He even wanted to look liked him so that he can frame Jargonot one day and get away with it. I see David, Wynona, and Allie, but... Yep, that's definitely Jargonot and his buddies. I looked at the photo list, sat it back down on one of the flat surfaces up front of the car, and then looked back at Henry.

"Traitor." I mumbled to myself in defeat very angrily, after I crossed my arms in my front seat, and while Henry was still driving us to the closest hotel.

***

(A day and six hours later...)-

"Hey guys, look!... It's them!" I heard Wynona call out while they were all standing there outside, waiting for us to hurry up.

"Here they come!..." Said Jargonot.

"About time." I heard Brian tell them and us for a moment.

I rolled up my side of the window and locked the door on my right side. Just hoping that until sundown, they would leave before we do.

"Come on Rose, or we're gonna be late for the ride of our lives!" Henry called out to see if I would come or not.

"Fine!..." I grumbled.

At least, nothing else will make my day besides a cruise ship. As long as Jargonot and his team stays out of my way and I can have my peace, hopefully I'll be fine with that.

When we got all of our stuff on the ship and into our separate rooms, I just hope that after I erase my memories, then these memories of my own will be just only silenced and totally forgotten to even have me remember it.

I walked out of my corridors to get some fresh air, but when I did I accidentally bumped into my old friend Allie, whiles he was texting a note to her friend William to tell him that their leaving for a few days. I could notice a little bit of her writing on that phone of hers very carefully.

"What do you want?" I asked her coldly and cautiously.

"I'm just going down to the deck to see my friends. What else?" She said.

"Okay then... Why are you following me?" I asked her again coldly but with a different question then the last one, since I haven't seen her for so long in a decade or years after six wars.

"We're only helping you because of Henry's requests. Nothing more. And I am also hoping to get some new photos for my vacation albums on this trip." She replied coolly.

"Okay." I said.

"Are you okay Rose? You seem kind of off today. Like you don't want to come on this trip at all anymore." Allie asked me, bewildered.

"How can you tell?" I wondered.

"Oh come on Rose, you know that we've sort of known each other for years since elementary school..." Allie replied coolly. "Until you took Martin's side and betrayed us, I mean..." She added suddenly.

My eyes lit up in surprise and then they went cold after she said that to me, "Seriously?" I said. If only she hadn't really done that to make my days any worse than they are right now. I mean, I can respect other people when their still nice to me or mean, but if they bring something like this up like Allie did today, then I won't respect them any more.

"What's wrong?" Allie asked me, like she thought I didn't understand her, payed any attention, or other. I'll tell you what's wrong... I growled angrily to myself in my mind, but not out loud.

"Nevermind... Just stay out of my way for now and have fun, okay?" I said rudely as I continued on walking to get outside for my first time in my own.

"Okay then..." She said sadly and soft before we both left separately to get outside or somewhere else. After we left, I didn't even look back and neither did Allie.

I know that was rude, but still if only she didn't have to bring that up. We have a history, but a kind of light and then dark history which brings out the demons or Angels in some or most of us, whenever either of us will run into each other by accident... And that they can never really go away!... Henry and the others are busy with their own thing to search for that amulet. I hope that pretty soon I could at least enjoy myself for once, before my memories are gone and over with for good. And also besides the memories, I never really always hope pretty much for anything else, but when it comes to trips like these you got to be careful... Because you never really know when one of them will betray you in one second before five seconds. I just hope one more time that this never happens here to me or anywhere else.
