Being Me

By Karin Roberts

The Cruise – Voyage of Discovery

Cruise Diary – Day 6

It was barely light when I woke up the next morning. From bed I reached out and grabbed the remote and switched on the TV. Flicking through the channels I looked for BBC News hoping there might be something about Dad. Nothing just the usual stuff employment problems issues with the economy stuff that probably should have interested me but didn’t.

While Akira has smoothing things over with the others, that does not mean they let him completely off the hook, for the secrets he kept from them.

And as their spaceship is heading back to Earth, to confront Hanna, they about to learn that their journey is only beginning.

Marty Hughes adores doing things with his mom, who is a single parent with a mysterious job. She loves him just as much, but when there's an accident on a camping trip, their mother-son relationship is going to be strained in ways that neither could have imagined.

Turning 16

Preface

Hi, let me introduce myself, my name is Belle Pride. I am writing this story for Jenny, my daughter, on her 16th birthday. It also happens to be my 32nd birthday. It was 16 years ago to the day that she came into my life (seems like a life time ago). It is time for me (at last) to keep a promise I made on that day so long ago. This is to tell her how she came into this world and how she has changed my life before and after she was born. I know this will not be easy, but the tale must be told. It all started a few months into my fifteenth year.

With the rest of the group learning of Akira's secret. Akira lays it all out on the table, in the hopes savaging his friendships with the others. While also telling them about Hanna's plans for revenge.

And later, Natsuru and Ranma will have some unexpected, but important decisions to make, that will effect their lives.

Events that have been in motion finally start to reach reach a peak. Revelations are learned. And nothing will be the same for Akira, nor the group he is with.

Josh Peterson has just scored the job of a lifetime - or at least the best job he can hope for without leaning on his parents for references - as a janitor at The Magic Kingdom, but when fate intervenes and he finds himself alone with the costume of his favorite Pixie Hollow character, his life takes a whole new turn.

Prophecies are abound. All one has to do is understand them.

The group of travels have finally made it to Oriotera, the Federation capital world. Now, they get a chance to see the sights.

Meanwhile, Birdy and Tsutomu take care of some personal matters. And it is not good news for them.

We arrived in L.A. and dropped off Dr Dale. Matt headed back to school and I thought Dennis, Mikey and I were headed back to Monterey. However, Dennis informed me that I had a meeting with Dez, Katherine's agent Lorne Cullen and some studio execs before heading home.

Tommy has the chance to get out from under for the summer and go to a gaming convention and spend the summer with a friend. A chance encounter with a cool girl unlocks secrets held back from everyone else, even ones they were keeping from themselves.
