Across from the excitement that surrounded Titanic, a serious poker game was taking place inside a pub between four men. Their names were Olaf, Sven, Fabrizio, and his friend Jack Dawson. And sitting on Jack's shoulder was his best friend, Jerry the mouse.

" Jack, you're betting with everything we have." Fabrizio said to him.

" When you got nothing, you got nothing to loose." Jack replied.

Jerry looked down at Jack's cards.

" Nothing." He thought.

Jerry loved watching and playing poker games, but this one has gone on for too long and it was getting intense. Jerry didn't know how much longer he could take of this. The only thing that kept Jerry's interest was the Titanic tickets that Sven had betted on. He stared out of the window where the Titanic stood.

" Would I do anything to go on that marvelous ship." Jerry thought. " They probably have the finest cheese in the world." His mouth started to water at the thought. But then his thoughts returned back to the game. He looked at Jack's hand hopelessly.

" It's gonna take a miracle to win this game." He thought.

As the game continued, Jerry duly watched. But as Jack picked up another card and added it to his hand, Jerry couldn't believe what he saw. Excited, he tried to get Fabrizio's attention and tell him the news. Jack saw how enthusiasm Jerry was and stopped him.

" Not now Jerry; I want to surprise Fabrizio." Jack said, trying to hold in his own enthusiasm. Jerry winked at him and gave him the thumbs up. He then hears the whistle blow coming from the Titanic. It was the final warning for people to board the ship.

" You better hurry, Jack." Jerry thought, looking at him in anticipation. Jack understood and turned back to the guys.

" The moment of truth boys. Somebody's life is about to change." He said, looking at Fabrizio as he set his cards down.

" Fabrizo's got nothing. Olaf?"

Olaf set his cards down.

" Nothing. Sven?"

Sven slapped down his cards. He had nothing but two a pair. Jack turned to Fabrizio.

" Sorry Fabrizio."

" You bet all of our money!" Yelled Fabrizio, who looked like he was about to kill Jack.

" I'm sorry, you're not going to see your mama again for a long time." Jack said calmly to him.

Fabrizio looked at Jack, confused. He got even more confused when he saw Jerry trying to hide the enormous grin on his face.

" Cause we're going to America!" Yelled Jack in excitement as he slammed his full house down on the table.

Jack, Fabrizio, and Jerry jumped for joy as Jerry danced around with their winnings. As Jack started to collect their winnings, Olaf grabbed his shirt. Seeing his friend in trouble, he took a big stick of bread from another table and went to attack the aggressive man. But as Jack braced for impact, Olaf swung around and punched Sven instead. Jerry dropped his bread in relief.

" Jack needs to be more careful when he brags about his winnings; Otherwise he's gonna end up with an ugly black eye." He thought.

Jack laughed as he turned toward his friends.

" I'm going home!" He said happily as he hugged Fabrizio.

Jack then picked up Jerry and hugged him too.

" Can't...breath." Jerry thought, tugging on Jack's shirt.

" Whoops. Sorry little buddy." Jack said as he let go of him.

" It's fine. You just got over excited is all." Jerry thought, smiling as he patted Jack's hand.

The three continued to celebrate until the pubkeeper spoke up to them.

" Titanic goes to America in five minutes." He said, pointing to the clock that was behind him.

" Oh shit, grab the stuff you guys!" Jack said to them.

Jack held out a bag as Fabrizio and Jerry dumped their winnings inside of it. As Jerry was helping, Fabrizio accidentally shoved Jerry into the bag.

" Is that everything?" Jack asked Fabrizio.

Fabrizio nodded his head.

" Wait,where's Jerry?"

Just then, their bag started to move and Jerry climbed up to the edge of the bag.

" Sorry." Fabrizio said.

Jerry glared at him as Jack pulled him out of the bag.

" C'mon, we got to hurry!" Jack said as they sprinted out of the pub and into the streets.

" We're going high style now!" Jack shouted to his friends.

" We're practically god damn royalty!"

As they continued running down the street, Jerry tightly held onto Jack's shirt. He looked towards the Titanic.

" I can't believe this is really happening!" Jerry thought happily.

" We really do deserve this trip. We have been traveling from town to town for months now."

Jerry then noticed the health inspection station.

" Oh crap!"

Jerry tried to get into Jack's pocket, but he was running so fast that it became too difficult and risky for him to climb down.

As they approached the passengers entrance, Jerry tugged Jack's shirt.

" What?" Jack asked, out of breath.

Jerry pointed to the health inspection station.

" Right. Hurry now, we're almost at the front."

Jerry slid into his pocket and made sure he was good and hidden as Jack and Fabrizio made it to the passengers entrance.

Once onboard, they continued their run. Inside Jack's pocket, Jerry was becoming nauseous.

" Has he forgotten that I'm still in here?!" Jerry thought as he tried to keep himself from puking.

Then out of nowhere, he heard cheering.

" What the heck?" He thought questionable.

Jack and Fabrizio had reached the top deck. As they looked over the edge at the cheering people down below, Jack took Jerry out of his pocket.

" Goodbye!" Jack yelled as he waved to the crowd down below.

Jerry looked at him, puzzled.

" You know somebody?" Fabrizio asked.

" Of course not. That's not the point." Jack answered as he went back to giving out pointless goodbyes. Fabrizio then joined in.

" Goodbye, I'll never forget you!" He yelled with joy.

As strange as it was, Jerry couldn't help but wanting to in too, but was afraid of being spotted by the other passengers. Jack turned to Jerry.

" It's okay Jerry. Everyone's too excited to notice you. You'll be fine." He said, reassuring him.

Looking back down at the people, Jerry started to wave. He wasn't so keen about it at first, but then found himself joining in the excitement with his friends. He blew kisses and waved his paws in joy. They haven't even left yet, and Jerry was already having a blast.

" If this is what being on a cruise is like, I never want to leave." He thought happily.

Jerry knew at that point that this was going to be the best trip that him and his friends will ever take. However, this was sadly not meant to be, for this was the last trip Jerry would ever take with his best friend, Jack.
