Authors note: Sorry for the long wait it's been hectic here, what with school and tons of homework and I had to write Coops POV twice, well that's what you get for not saving. I'm in bed sick today so I thought I'd write up chapter 4 in my new found free time. Hope you enjoy chapter four.

Jack's POV

I went down to the garage to look for Kat's collar. I saw it on the workbench and picked it up, but as I did it jolted me with electricity as I felt the knowledge of their alien technology flow into me, I saw images of battle suit and weapon plans among others, the pain was unbearable. I was flung across the garage as the final jolt hit me like a train at full speed.

I lay on the floor and coughed, black smoke came out my mouth. I groaned. "Ouch, that hurt." I said to myself thinking how cliché that was.

I got up and looked at the collar. 'Huh this looks... fixable.' I thought, shocked and confused at how well I knew their tech now.

'It could be a good present for Kat I guess, Christmas is only days away I could fix it for her, and the look on Coops face would be priceless.' I thought with a wide smile.

Now that I think about it it's a good thing I wrapped Kat up in those blankets it's starting to snow.' I thought chuckling.

'Well Coop looks like you just took Kat's collar, sorry man but someone's got to take the fall, and it gives Kat the chance to get revenge on you for shooting her. Although she would of probably done that anyway.' I thought making a mental not to record Kat turning Coop into mincemeat.

I picked up the collar with a welders glove this time. I pocketed it and went inside.

I went back into the bed room and saw Kat in the bed shaking like a leaf at the cold.

I walked over to the closet and got out the electric blanket. I wrapped it around Kat and turned it on.

"Well hope that helps, oh and I couldn't find the collar it was too dark the light kinda blew ill look when the sun is up." I said with a smirk.

I went to the other side of the bed and got under the blankets I fell asleep not long after.

Kat's POV

This human confuses me. Not only has he saved my life, he is willing to look after me and fetch my collar in that cold he didn't find it yet but still. He also protected me from Coop, his own relative no less.

Do I even deserve his kindness? I mean I'm not part of his species heck I'm not even of this world... Yet he still stood up for me and protected me... But why did he? Does he like me? Well I can't ask him, what if he doesn't. I would never be able to live with that pain. I'm not even sure how I feel about him yet.

I guess I'll find out in time right now I think I'll follow his example and go to sleep.

"Dennis, Dennis are you there." I said into the two way radio.

"Dude its 6 AM can't this wait till noon?" Dennis said sleepily.

"No it can't, Kat's using mind control on my cousin." I said almost yelling.

"So what's the big deal he's one guy and Kat's used mind control before." Dennis said.

He's fresh out of the marine core and he has a MACHINEGUN, can you imagine what Kat could use him for! She's already using him for protection." I shouted thinking what else Kat could use a first class marksman for. "Oh yeah Kat's a girl by the way." I added.

"He's a she? Anyway it's not like your cousin shot you or anything." Dennis said completely oblivious.

"He did... but it was a rubber bullet... It still hurt like hell though." I said hurt that he did but I'm sure it wasn't his will I'm sure of it.

"Well are you sure he didn't protect Kat out of his own free will." Dennis said completely serious.

"He gave her the kiss of life... Anyway why would he want to protect that hairless freak." I said still sick at him kissing Kat.

"Well why don't you use water to snap him out of it like we did all those cats before." Dennis said.

"Your right ill put a bucket of water on his door." I said with a bit more hope.

I placed the bucket up and went to bed with my hopes high.
