The icy water lapped at her knees,the black lace of her dress bubbling as the water claimed it,weighting it down to unbearable levels.The Gemini put her head back and sighed,closing her eyes,already pins and needles were setting in,a rigid hold on her legs.Her hands were chained roughly to the steel beam,the steel chains chaffing at her wrists,causing them to be rubbed raw,and ache at the same time.The Gemini had only been here for 1o minutes,in the bilge room,but the frigid water was rising fast.She put her head forward,closing her eyes,as her shoulders racked with a sob of exhaustion.One tear fell from her green eyes,thick with black eyeliner,the saltine droplet rushing up to meet the ocean,salt on salt.Opening her eyes she stared brokenly at the icy water,the light distorting on the surface to dance,broken beams through the prism of tears.
The Gemini could feel the cold water sinking into her waist,icy needles,or swords perhaps,slicing through yet leaving her intact.The worst part was that there was absolutely nothing she could do.She was hurt,due to the steward that had swung at her before dragging her by her ankles down to the bilge room,due to the fact that he was absolutely hammered.Tear-lines of black mascara ran down her face,black tattoos of her agony.Her breathing was ragged,gasping,as she screamed again,no words,just a piercing note,aimed to call attention to her plight.The water was up to her wrists now,the silver chain she wore on her wrist,comprised of onyx hearts threaded on a silver chain reflecting her face back at her.She closed her eyes and her lips formed the words.Help me,please,Doctor.
The words were a sigh,as if she had given up hope.No,The Gemini had not given up,she was merely too exhausted to fight any more.See,she Fahd been wandering down the hallways,in general when a drunken steward had asked her for a beer.She'd told him in no uncertain terms,that he was drunk,and the next thing she knew she was here,her face a mask of blood from her temples and eyeliner.

"Ms. Tyler" the Doctor said grinning at her but then he stopped and looked around. He frowned when he saw Gemini was missing, oh and that was never good and he took Rose's hand and looked at her "Rose! You must find everyone and take them to a room, any room which you think can be ours" he said handing her the pyshic paper and then started to look for the gemini.

The Gemini inhaled deeply,knowing claustrophobia set in all the faster if you panicked.She kept still,the cold water making her numb to everything but the pain of her emotions.In the water below her a drop of blood mixed with a tear hit the water,separating into ribbons of red winding around the floating satin of her dress.She clsoed her eyes and tipped her head back to lean on the pole,only hoping that someone would have heard her last audible plea for help.

Pearl smiled at the young lady (of course in the 21st century she would have been a girl, but at this time her age was percived as a young lady entering into womanhood). She seemed nice, polite, respectable and yet it seemed she had been travelling with Dr Smith. "Well, I was off to locate my room, so if that is not going to bore you, then I would be glad of the company." she said smiling. "I'm Pearl." she said offering her first name and waiting for the reply.

Allison took her hand and shook it, (a bit to forcefully and 21st century.) "I'm Allison. Allison... Smith" She said a bit negatively. She had heard clips of The Doctor's story about himself, and she went along with it. However, that did not mean she liked it.

He looked worried, whoever this Gemini person was, they were in trouble. The Doctor certainly didn't look like that if he thought it was nothing. "Right.. I'll... I'll find Allison" she nodded to the Doctor, or Mr Smith as she had to remember to call him, grabbing the physic papers from his hand, and walked away. "Becareful Mr Smith" she called back as she ran, well... Walked as quickly as possible across the deck to where she thought her sister had stalked off with that other woman she hadn't met yet. "ALLISON?" she called upon the deck, heading down the stairs, having difficulty with the great deal of cloth surrounding her ankle boots. These dresses, certainly didn't leave much to the immagination. They were an awful mess of fabric and hemming. Didn't help when you were trying to race down flights of stairs on a moving deck.

Off in the distance, Allison thought she heard her name being called, but made nothing of it. She was sure that many people could have the name Allison. she looked back for a quick second, only seeing a sea of people walking around, beaming and talking with one another. So she continued to walk with Pearl, still wondering if possibly it really was her name being called.

Pearl nodded, taking her hand back from the woman, she wasn't used to someone shaking her hand so... enthusiastically. Perhaps it had something to do with the way she had been raised. Recognising the last name she nodded back towards where the Doctor had been. "So you're related to Doctor Smith then?"

"Oh, yes." She nodded, the quickly added, "But only by a very small amount... I'm his... second...cousin... twice removed... father's... side..." She stammered. She was a horrible lier. And what if the Doctor had already told people another story about her? Like, another way of being related? Crap... she thought.

The Doctor looked at Rose, bite his lip half worried about her before thinking. Gemini was to be okay right? He shrugged then went after her "Rose! Look, you search around for her, umm yer and I'll look for Allison" the Doctor said nodding he smiled then had a very un-easy face as he looked around then kissed Rose in the check before running after Allison. He heard Allison and shook his head and smiled softly and saw Pearl "Hi, sorry about before. Ma'am" he said smiling softly then looked at Allison "Umm... that's a funny thing. She's Rose's sister, but she is my sister in-law to be kinda, very but Allison. Poor child kind hit her head comig up her, forgotting some stuff but she'll be fine" the Doctor said grinning then leand to her ear "I told you Allison, Pretty hard to say you aint Rose's sister and it'll be weird as if I was to kinda marry my own second cousin!" he whispered to Allison.

Pearl nodded smiling, the only sign that she saw their relationship as slightly strange was the miniscule indent that her eyebrow had made for merely a second. "So then Dr Smith, you seem to be in a bit of a rush? Is there anything we can help you with? We were about to head off to find my cabin."

"Do--I mean, Mr. Smith?! What is the matter?" Allison asked. She leaned in closer to hear him, and then smiled. "Well, I think that would be up to Mr. Smith if you were to come with us," She turn to the Doctor. "How about it, Mr. Smith? Pearl comes with us?"

"Okay, come on!" She grabbed Pearl by the wrist and pulled her along, following the Doctor. "Where are we going?" She asked, running.

Pearl stopped pulling her wrist away from the girl. Yes she had decided that the young lady was now a girl. Just becuase she seemed of the right age of a young lady did not mean that she was. In fact at this moment she was certainly acting like a child. "Excuse me. While I don't know what you're doing, or why you are running. I have to go and locate my room. Which was what I was going to do in the first place." she said confidently even though she was starting to become unsure about these people.
