A note from author: I'm not really sure why i decieded to make a tru calling fanfic. I've liked the show since it first aired and i have both seasons on dvd. Just one random day i woke up and said "You know what... i feel like writing a tru calling fanfic." Seriously! I'm not even kidding! Well... I thought for a while and came up with this. Oh, and you probably have to know the basic storyline of Tru calling to understand what's going on but I tried to write it where anyone would be able to understand... i don't think i did too good of a job.
Disclaimer: I don't own tru calling. there... all done.
Chapter 1: Truth
Tru awoke in the morning thinking about her life. She has an ability that no one else has. A calling that comes from the dead. A dead person asks for her help and Tru's day rewinds and she keeps that person from dying. She's been working at the morgue and recently, a guy named Jack Harper has started working there with her. Tru found out that he could relive days too after she talked to him about a letter he got from a mental institute. Tru was more than excited to find out that he also shared the same gift.
Unfortunetly, the concept of yin and yang never ceases and Jack so happened to be the exact opposite of Tru. Now, they've both been fighting for what they think fate wants, but there's only one person who knows fate.
Tru went to work and saw Luke, her ex boyfriend, walking down the same hall that they've seen one another many times before.
"Looks like we just keep bumping into each other again and again." Tru said.
"Yeah I wonder why that is."
"Maybe one day we'll find out."
There was a small silence after that.
"Well, I have to get going." Luke said.
"Right. I'll see you later then." Tru and Luke parted ways. She went to her boss, and helpful partner that knows Tru's secret, office.
"Hey Davis. Any new bodies?"
"No and let's hope it stays that way." He said. "Any luck finding Jack?"
"Nothing. Harrison's been trying to find out a lot but he hasn't been able to get even the slightest bit of information."
"Maybe something will turn up soon."
A girl, that was about the same age as Tru, walked in.
"I'm sorry but I'm looking for Jack. I thought he worked here."
Tru and Davis looked at each other. Davis responded. "Well, he uh, he used to but he quit."
"He did?" The girl sounded very surprised. "What a shame. Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Faith. Jack is my ex and I just wanted to give some of his stuff back."
"Your boyfriend? Wow. He never mentioned you." Tru said.
"I'm not surprised. We were only going out for a couple weeks. It didn't work out but no worries."
"I'm Tru." Tru shook hands and when she did, she noticed that Faith's eyes became dark for a couple seconds.
"Right… Nice to finally meet you. Jack's mentioned you."
"Has he…"
"Yes. And you are?" She looked at Davis.
"Sorry, I'm Davis." He shook hands with her and her eyes became a light blue color which was strange because her eyes are brown. When she released, her eyes turned back to normal. "Of course, you're him. Well, I better be on my way. I still have to check a few more places." The girl left the morgue.
"Did you see that?" Tru asked.
"See what?"
"Her eyes. When she shook your hand and mine."
"What about them?"
"They changed color."
"Are you sure? I was looking right at them and they stayed the same."
"That's strange."
"Oh, looks like we have another guest."
A body was brought into standards. Tru and Davis went in. Tru found out all the information she could about this girl named, Jennifer Morgan. She had died in a drowning accident. The phone rang and Davis went to answer it. Tru looked at the body and observed it more. She turned to the victim's head and it quickly opened its eyes. "Help me." The dead girl said.
Tru was taken back and her day rewound. She woke up in her bed and it was that same day. "Here we go."
After going to the morgue to talk to Davis about the girl, she went to the diner around the block since she had time to spare. Jennifer apparently hadn't died until three thirty in the afternoon. It was twelve right now and Tru had nothing better to do than to eat brunch. When she looked at the clock, she realized that around this time, Faith had come into the morgue. Tru called Davis.
"Hey, did a girl come by the morgue?" Tru asked.
"No, just you. Why?"
"Well, yesterday, there was a girl named Faith that came by. She said she was Jack's ex."
"Well, Tru, you realize that today Jack's day also rewound so he probably got to her first."
"Your right." Tru glanced over to the door and Faith had come into the diner. "She's here. That's weird. Maybe she knows where Jack is."
"Well, call me if you find out."
"Thanks Davis." Tru hung up the phone. She went over to Faith. "Hey, are you Faith?" She acted surprised.
"That's me. And are you Tru?"
"I am. How'd you know?"
"How did you know me?" Faith smiled. "My ex told me about you."
"Your ex. That wouldn't happen to be Jack, would it?"
"It would. Tell me, Tru, do you enjoy your job?"
"Well I guess. There are late hours but if you're wondering, that's not the reason why Jack doesn't work there anymore."
"Actually, I wasn't talking about that job."
Tru gave a shocked look.
Faith smiled. "I meant the job where the dead ask for your help."
