Danny woke up as the reality of going to drop Rafe off at the train station dawned upon him. He really didn't want to have to go through with this but as Rafe's best friend this was what he had to do. After dressing and checking on Jannee who yelled at him for waking her, he went to go pick up Rafe. The drive to the station was a quiet one. Danny didn't know what to say. Rafe was also at a loss of words. All he knew was that if something were to happen to him, he wanted Danny to tell Evelyn. The drive to the train station wasn't too incredibly long. They were soon in the station bidding their last good-byes. " Danny" said Rafe, " if something were to happen to me, i want you to tell Evelyn. " Come back for the both of us" replied Danny hugging Rafe good-bye. As Rafe, borded the train, he wondered if Evelyn had come despite his request. His question was soon answered as Evelyn appeared outside the window crying. Rafe pounded on the window attempting to get her attention but she couldn't hear him and left.

Danny couldn't believe that Rafe had left. He really left. Danny had almost hopped that Rafe would lose his nerve but that was hardly the case. Danny walked in to find Jannee sitting on her bed writing again, he wondered what she was doing. Not too long ago he had insisted she keep a diary but she said that was for girls. So what was she doing. " You made it back" said jannee sarcastically. " Yeah" said Danny really begining to think he had raised a cynic. Come to think of it, Jannee should probably be playing Barbie's or playing with make-up with other girls her age but no, she wanted to go to the military base on pearl harbor with him. He knew when he and Rafe joined the military she would want to be in on it too, but why he let her was a mystery to him.

Jannee felt rather sorry for Danny. Rafe his best friend had left him to go to war and now they are shipping us off to pearl harbor. Going to pearl harbor for her wasn't going to be so bad. I want to go thought Jannee to herself. Come to think of it, she almost didn't get to go. First, she had to try and convince Danny to let her go. According to him, she should be playing Barbie's or playing with make-up with other girls her age not living on a military base during a war in which for the time being we aren't engaged in. He knows i am not into that kind of stuff. Next i had to convince some of his ranking officers, that was one of the hardest negotiations of my life. They finally gave in when i went into a fit about Danny being my only family and how it would break my heart to be separated from him. To say the least, tomorrow we are off to pearl harbor.
