TITLE: A bond that lasts forever
AUTHOR: Annelisek annelisek@topmail.com.ar or hermosomichael@yahoo.com
SUMMARY: When i watched for the first time "Ghost of Christmas Past" i was in shock. For some reason the perfomances and the story itself pointed straight to my heart. Made me remember some of my fav movies and especially a poem.
Classified: G Alternative Universe. Just a little bizarre. A Harm story. (Scully wanted include it in The X-files LOL!).This story is placed inmediately after GOCP but before "Into the breech"
DISCLAIMER: JAG belongs to Paramount, CBS and Belisarius Prod. No Copyright infringement is intended. The X-files belongs to Ten Thirteen Productions and Fox (but it's not a cross over),XtWP belongs to Warner Bros and Rob Tapert
FEEDBACK: Yes please!! I would be very happy to read what you think about.Since this is my first fic in English (my mother tongue is Spanish)i would love your comments,critics and curses LOL.Also corrections because of my grammar and spelling mistakes will be LOVED. (i hadn't a beta reader and i'm looking for one) :-)
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I have borrowed some HUGE quotes from my other favorites shows and movies. I hope you don't mind :).This story was written like a prologue for a bigger story i'm writing but i decided to share this one like a character piece.
Dedications: Especially to one of the nicest person i have ever met in Internet: Katherine Gilbert who has shared her talent and kindness with so many people whose poem that i call "Lifetime after lifetime" was the inspiration and basis to my webpage. To Rob because he has become his son into a new JAG fan and Ronnie just for being always with me. I love you sister!
BTW My English sucks since my mother tongue is not English *************************************************************************
Once, a long, long time ago, all people had four legs and two heads. And then the gods threw down thunderbolts, and split everyone into two. Each half then had two legs and one head. But the separation left both sides with a desperate yearning to be reunited, because they each shared the same soul. And ever since then, all people spend their lives searching for the other half of their soul.

Christmas Eve 1999
Vietnam Memorial
- I was going to leave them at the Wall but now they are yours- said Jenny
- No. They belong him - replied Harm. Then he left the box containing the wings at the bottom of the Wall and he honored his father as he saluted him.

Bob Hope and the USO who
have entertained our servicemen
and women in peace and war
all over the world.

And now a different conclusion...
- Mrs. Lake. I.......... - Harm turned around. Nothing. Jenny was gone. He was surprised by that just for a minute. He had so many things in his chest.. to tell her... to ask her.... Harm started to going back to his SUV.A man, his father, spent his last minutes with this woman and have kissed her. Did he deceive his mother? Jenny said no but still there were a lot of questions without answers that only she knew about.
Harm decided it was too late. He would go back to his apartment and find something to do. He was alone that Christmas Eve perhaps the following day too. Harm asked himself where Mac would be ,if she would feel so lonely as he did in that moment.
He thought in Jenny Lake one more time. He wanted to talk to her again. He asked himself what he would have made if he had been in Harm Sr 's shoes. And something stunned him when he noticed he would have made the same because those few moments were worthy enough to save this woman's life..

Harm came into the office when he saw Gunnery Sargeant Galindez who stood in attention.
- Morning Commander
- Morning Gunny. At ease. How were your holidays Gunny?
- Great sir. I have spend holidays at home with my whole family. Some of them came from Mexico. How about yours, sir?
- It must be such a crowd! My mum and my stepfather were aboard a cruise so i'm afraid my holidays wasn't so active. I spent the day with my Grandmother in Bellesville and then I came back.
- Bellesville it's a nice place, sir.
- Do you know it?
- An old friend had family there but they moved out now.
- Gunny, I......- Harm hesitated.
- Yes, sir?
- I need a little favour
- At your orders, sir.
- I need to find this woman- Harm grabbed a piece of paper from his pocket and gave it to Gunny Galindez
- Jenny Lake? Wasn't she...?
- Yes, she was with Bob Hope's USO
- Sir, may I ask you something?
- Do it, Gunny.
- Why do you want to meet her?
-I'm not sure but I heard she was in the USS Ticonderoga when my father crashed down on Christmas Eve in 1969. And i want to know if she met him.
- If he was flying on a mission and she played that same day probably she never knew him.
- Maybe but i want to be sure.
- Then I'll look for her, sir.
- Thanks Gunny.
