~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tara had snuck out whilst the pilots had been making enough noise and distraction for a whole army.
"Philip Febuggure what the smeg has happened to you!" she yelled as she entered the drive room and saw the state Phil was in. She tapped her foot waiting a response. Her loud entrance had drawn the attention of most of the drive room.
"Honey...please, not now...we have a problem......" he replied to her question in tones that were not to her liking.
"Don't you honey me MR!" she replied in a tone she would use when the kids had been naughty. "Answer my question!" she yelled. Phil turned round to Tara and just glared...
"It's a shame my eyes aren't black right now that'd shut her up" he thought...
"Look, we have very little power, what we have is draining away as we speak and we are heading towards an unknown nebula which could contain anything, but wouldn't you know the scanners on the fritz and YOUR WORRIED ABOUT MY CLOTHES???" Tara growled and glanced around. She saw mini-phil on the tread mill
"If you run faster i'll...." she finished the sentence so only MP could here. The clone doubled speed. "Where were we!"
"How did you do that???" asked WW?
"I said he could have free reign in my apartment for a week after this is over."
"Err...One minor problem there "dearest"...It's MY apartment as well!"
"If you carry on with this attitude towards things it may not be for much longer!" she said WW forgotten
"Why are you moving out?" asked Phil in a very calm voice..."Ermm I don't mean to interrupt but could you two....." WW started to say but was interrupted by both Tara and Phil shouting "SHUT - -UP "Only then rembering who they were saying shut up to and added a belated "sir" afterwards
"Who said I would be moving out? If you remember they are my quarters after all!"
"Ermmm...No I think you'll find that the quarters belong to me...not you...me"
"Fine then YOU HAVE THEM! I'D RATHER BE ON EARTH THAN WITH YOU HERE!" she screeched at her husband. Phil brought out his secret weapon..."What, with James?" It was like a blow to the stomach that knocked all the wind out of her. She deflated like a balloon.
"H.. how did you....."
"I'm the security chief darling...I know about EVERYTHING that happens on this ship...." The rest of the crew were watching the exchange between the two like a bad tennis match, the approaching nebula forgotten for much better entertainment
"It was coded..... a special code.... you can't...." she babbled
"You forget...I'm also an ex science offer with about half a million years under my belt...there are only 3 codes on this I haven't cracked yet....", replied Phil..."Don't worry sir, yours is one of them, the others is Niples code and for some reasons Cains...but I'm not bothered about him" Tara gulped down the lump that was forming in her throat
"So now you know about me. What... do... you.... think.... then." The last few word were forced out with a great deal of effort.
"My thoughts are my own...Lets just say You wont have to worry getting you own place...cos I'm moving out...right now!"
