Federal Plane
Scott sat in the air plane his seat was across from Jack's
Rebecca, and Diego were sitting in a different row of seats away t=from them but enough to hear them
Scott was ready to talk to Jack but suddenly he feels a pain rush through his head and he sees a man with buzz cut brown hair blue eyes wearing a United States Marine uniform and a pair of dog tags around his neck and a first lieutenant on the uniform
Jack seemed unaware of the man
Scott knew the man it was Nathan Hale his best friend from his days of the Marines and Claire's older brother who died in his arms as Scott tried to save his life
Scott's face was white as a ghost Jack could sees the fear in his eyes
Nathan sat in the seat next to Jacks, Scott puts his hand forward and just as it touches Hale he disappears
Jack looks at his partner and asks "Are you okay Scott? You look like you've seen a ghost."
Scott relaxes in the seat with a little sweat going down his face and say's "Yeah Jack I'm fine."
He takes a few seconds and asks "Hey Jack can I ask you something?"
Jack looks at his partner and say's "Of course."
Scott puts his hand in front of his mouth making the face he always made when he was thinking then finally he say's "Hauser wanted me to ask you and Rebecca something on the flight and I thought I should just get it over with."
"What is it?"
"Are you and Rebecca… seeing each other?"
Jack could hear the discomfort in Scott's voice and kept his mixed emotions inside and asks "Why would Hauser want you to ask me that?"
"Well you and her have gotten close since I woke up after getting shot and they decided to use me as a middle man seeing as how their too spineless to ask themselves."
Jack could always see that Scott hated Hauser but now his hate was turned to complete disgust
Finally he asks "What would have happened if I was?"
Scott looks at him and say's "Part of the deal I was able to get you says That while you work with the team you are not allowed to make contact with anyone outside of the team without one of the other's knowing and this one Hauser snuck in during the last few days of the debate you would not be allowed to form romantic relationships with someone from this time unless you're handler can present evidence otherwise."
"And who's my handler?"
"That would be me Jack."
"So even if I like Rebecca I'm not allowed to pursue a relationship with her or anyone else."
"You could, before Rebecca was stabbed I earned a few favors in the white house and the senate so I can help you there if you are interested in moving on."
Jack looks Scott strait in the eye and say's "I am."
"Alright when we get back I'll make the call but When Ray Archer starts giving me hell you'd better be there to take me to the hospital again."
Jack then say's "I'll be there."
Jack then began to look out the window at the clouds and Scott grabs his nearby Hamlet book and begins to read
Meanwhile after hearing the conversation between the two Claire couldn't help but notice a slight smile forming on her face
Sacramento Air port
The plane landed in Sacramento Rebecca, Diego, Jack, Claire and Carl get off leaving Scott who was starting to get up
As he does this he hears a voice say "Wow Lucas I didn't think you were the government type."
He looks and sees in one of the seats Nathan looking up at him smirking and then Hale say's "And seeing my sister really man. What ever happen to the pilot?"
Scott looks at the ghost and asks "How can-
Then Claire comes into the plane and say's "Lucas?"
He looks back at her then back to where the ghost was but now it was gone
Claire looks at Scott and sees he had something on his mind and asks "Are you okay Lucas?"
Scott looks at her and say's "Yeah I'm fine Claire let's just get this over with."
And they both exit the plane with Scott trying to understand what just happened
CBI Building
Scott, Jack and Rebecca sat in the room of one of the CBI team while Diego, Carl and Claire were in the waiting room
Jack and Rebecca were sitting down in some chairs exchanging looks a few times then looking away
Scott found it more relaxing to walk around the room as he was still disturbed from earlier on the plane
He could still hear Nathan's voice "How could you let me die Tom? Stop running! Why are you working for these people? Tom answer me! Lucas!"
Scott covered his ears in a desperate attempt to make the Noise stop
Then all of a sudden he hears a knock on the door frame and the voice of his friend stops his mind at peace
He looks and sees a brunet woman in her early forties
Jack and Rebecca stand up when they see she had come in
Scott shakes hands with her and she say's "You must be Agent Sawyer? I'm supervisor Smith."
Scott then say's "Good to meet you." Then he introduces his friends "This is Agent Sylvane and Madsen."
Smith exchanged looks with Jack and Rebecca then went back to Scott and handed him a case file and say's "Here's everything we have on your case."
Scott took the case file and say's "Thanks."
Supervisor smith then she goes to her desk and resumes her duties
Scott and the others took the file to the waiting room and Carl asks "Did you get the file?"
Scott lifts the case file Smith gave him and say's "Yeah now let's go."
Some Restaurant
The team sat at the small table in the low class restaurant
It was the kind of place Scott and Jack were use to eating in
As the other's ate there food Scott and Rebecca looked over the case file
They read the case files then there was ring from Scott's phone but this time it was different Jack and Rebecca could tell by how Claire and Carl reacted to it along with Scott
The ring was a song called War by Poets of the fall a song that Scott specifically put on his phone if one very important person ever called
He looked at the caller ID and it said Callen
Scott stood up and the others watch as he leaves the restaurant and Jack turns to Carl and Claire and asks "What was that?"
Claire sits up and say's "That ring tone shouldn't even be playing in anymore."
Then she follows Scott outside
Scott walks out the door and flips the door open and say's "Hello?"
Then he hears a voice the voice he knew too well "Hello Sergeant."
"Callen what are you doing out of Binghamton?"
"They let me out for good behavior."
Scott could hear the sarcasm in Callen's voice he had always been full of life and emotion but then he was captured and his personality changed
Scott thought about what to say then finally asks "What do you want?"
Soon Claire walks out the door and listens in on their conversation
Finally Callen say's "Why don't you and you're girlfriend turn around and find out."
Scott realizes he could hear Callen's voice nearby and turns around and sees he and Claire both see him sitting on a park bench and Callen say's "About time you showed up."
