Blair took another sip of the rum, she braced herself and swallowed, managing not to cough thistime "Why? Would you want to hear my story?" She asked.
"A native American girl all the way here? What tribe are you from?"
"The Apache"
"Oh? Are you really a shaman then? That would explain the fire?"
"People frown on things like that right?" Blair started enjoying the rum, she took a bigger sip.
"People scare easy Blair, if there was ever an opportunity for someone with good intentions, having the ability to create fire, to prove they can use it for good, then that would break the ice and make everyone feel a lot safer around that person"
Blair held the cup to her, empty.
"Slow down kid, that stuff will make you sorry later"
"It's good once you get the hang of it"
Alice poured her another glass but a knock on the door came "Yes!?" Alice called.
"Come on skipper don't keep the girl all to yourself bring her out here!"
