It's a bit of a short chapter guys but this is all I had time to write so I hope it's okay. I'm so tired! It's half 11 at night and I've been studying math, then walked my three dogs for an hour, then I went an exercise class so you can understand why. I would have wrote more, I might write another chapter tomorrow that will be longer to make it up to you guys. Reply time! Thanks for the five reviews, wow I was not expecting that much!

Chapter 10: An adult believer

Mrs Bennet helped the strange woman up and they walked over to a tree which the woman leaned on looking across at Mrs Bennet with a big smile on her face.

"Well I better start talking eh?" The woman asked winking at her.

Mrs Bennet scowled batting an eye at the odd behavior but she responded all the same. "Yes you better."

"First things, first. My name's Jera and yours?"

"Jenny." Mrs Bennet responded, she could easily tell that the woman was just making idle chitchat almost like she wanted to delay things as slow as possible.

"Jenny Bennet. Oh of course! You know you shouldn't really be able to see right?" Jera stated looking at Jenny with a smirk.

Jenny just looked at her with wide eyes, how did this woman know her last name? She had only told her first and what did she mean that she shouldn't be able to see this woman? Was Jera a ghost?

"Are you a ghost?" Jenny asked beginning to become a bit scared, she had always believed in ghosts but coming face to face with one petrified her.

Jera looked at her and then began to laugh, her laughter sounded like a clock ticking which caused Jenny to blink twice, how in the world did someone's laugh sound like a clock? Jera finally stopped laughing and wiped a tear from her eye.

"No! Of course not! I'm not even close to a ghost! I'm the keeper of time for goodness sake! Why would I be a ghost?" Jera spoke, holding her laughter in.

Jenny eyes widened as she realized that she was standing face to face with a mystical being. She didn't even think it was possible but the woman seemed very different almost like she wasn't human.

"The keeper of time? You mean that you…you can see all the past and present?" Jenny responded.

"No not really but I know what people's last names are and sometimes first name just by looking at them , my father is Father Time, he can see all through the past and present. I'm the one with the time travel abilities even though I can't time travel myself."

Jenny couldn't believe what she was hearing, she had to be dreaming. She was talking to someone who could control time. This had to be a dream and she might as well just go along with everything.

"So how did you end up in that cage?"

"Oh that's a long story that I don't really want to tell. I still want to know how you can see me though…hmm…wait a minute! Do you believe in the concept of time travel?"

Jenny gave her a strange look but nodded all the same. "Yes I do believe that it could be possible."

"Well that could explain how you can see me! But for an adult to believe so rare! I feel proud to have an adult believer; I have never been seen by an adult before! Children can see me all the time because a child's mind knows no boundaries, that's why your son and daughter could see me."

Jenny let her mouth drop; Jera had just mentioned her children and this could mean that she might know something about her children! Hope began to rise in Jenny's chest and a little smile began to appear on her face, she still thought she was dreaming but it was a happy dream all the same.

"You know what happened to my children?" She asked, hoping bubbling from, rising into the air.

"Yes I do and I'm sorry but I was the cause of it. Please don't be angry with me! I sent them back in time to the colonial times for a few very good reasons!"

Jenny let the hope fall as it was replaced by anger, was it possible that she had sent her children back in time? She began to become angry and confused, her children could be hurt! They must have been lost and so afraid, stuck in another time.

"You sent my children 300 years back in time!" Jenny shouted so angry at the woman.

"I know, I know."

Jenny was then struck with an idea. "Send me back in time as well so I can bring them home."

Jera looked like she was panicking but then shook her head. "Are you sure? I might not be able to bring you all back; there will be at least 4 of you."

"What do you mean four?"

"Jack Frost, I sent him back in time as well which is just a disaster waiting to happen."

"Wait, you mean my son's imaginary friend is real?" Jenny cried, this dream was starting to feel more and more like a reality and it was scaring her quite a bit.

"Of course who else do you think brings all this snow?" Jera laughed.

Jenny didn't know what to say. She couldn't believe it. Everything happening around her was real and not a dream? She just stared at the ground as everything finally clicked into place, everything she knew was wrong about the world and she couldn't say a word.

She watched Jera spin her hands in the air and a strange mist began to form around Jenny, she rose into the air and vanished in the blink of an eye, her screams echoing long after she had gone.

Jamie stared out of the window sighing. He was waiting for Jack to come back but when was debatable. He knew that Jack wouldn't abandon him but he really didn't want to wait long because he needed to talk to Jack about what had happened with his sister and the fact that Jack needed to tell Emma who he really was, Emma didn't deserve to suffer like that.

Sophie had fallen asleep because the sun was setting. Jamie felt the longing of home, even though it was pretty cool that they were in another time, he still wanted to go home. This adventure would last someone a life time, it was almost like being in a living history lesson and Jamie found history sometimes so boring and dull, he wondered why some people loved to study it.

He decided to go and get ready for bed, maybe when he woke up Jack would be at the end of the bed with that usual cocky grin he had. However the door burst open and in walked Jack's Mom who looked very stressed and worried.

"What's the matter Mrs Overland?" Jamie asked curiously.

"It's Emma, she just ran off into the night!" Mrs Overland cried, looking at Jamie who could see tears falling down her face.

Jamie looked alarmed, why had Emma even ran off? It wasn't like her! There had to be a very good reason for why Emma had ran off.

"Why?"

"Because of me, I told her that I'm expecting a child and then she just took off! I do not know why!" Mrs Overland responded shaking her head as more tears fell out of her brown eyes.

"We need to find her!"

"I know, please come help me look for her Jamie."

"Should I wake Sophie?"

"No child, she will be safe, quickly come." Mrs Overland gestured to the door and Jamie followed her out, he was very concerned for Emma because he knew that forests were very dangerous at night. They needed to find her and quick.
