Disclaimer: I own nothing having to do with Scarecrow and Mrs. King. I just like to play with their lives or in this case their children's and their lives. Enjoy!

CHAPTER 2

"Aunt Francine, I think that your not going to get a closer answer to a yes." Matthew looked at the blond haired lady before him. He seemed resigned to the fact that he was going to be doing this for the rest of his life and it wasn't as if he was any good at what they were doing. He was also pretty good and had finally stopped fighting what was inedible to what was happening.

"Dad, before we go I need to say good bye to my girlfriend." Matthew had turned and looked at Lee. He took the keys to his convertible and left the Q bureau. "Tell Missie that I said hi." Jenny called after him.

"It's not Missie. It's Nissie which stands for Nissandra." He retorted back.

That made the whole room laughed at that thinking about when Scarecrow was dating every girl in the steno pool. Particularly if the name ended with an I.

"Dad how did you keep up with all those girls you used to date before you hadn't met Mom?" Jenny shook her head with astonishment.

"My little black books." He was well aware of the look that his wife by his side was giving him.

Jenny only shook her head. "I'm going home to pack. Phillip and Aunt Francine you will owe me big time for doing this to me." She left the room. She then popped her head back in, "Can I borrow an agency car. Matthew brought me here when you called on us on such short notice. By the way what are our names going to be?" She asked thinking of the question after her brother left. "How are we going to be known? Will we be brother and sister or pretend that we met over there." She asked all at once.

Francine smiled and said well you can't be boyfriend and girlfriend you two look too much alike."

"Boyfriend ad Girlfriend... Sweethearts! Gross Aunt Francine. I think that I will wait until you have the folders made up. Bye." Jenny disappeared and was still thinking about what Aunt Francine had said.

I don't know how you came up with that idea Aunt Francine but that's absolutely gross. I hope not all of her ideas come out that lame. As much as I hate to admit to though I'm excited about doing this. I also know that I will have plenty of protection and will have my brother there also. I don't what the thinks of having to go through college again seeing that he just graduated last year.

Matthew had just left his girlfriend who had gotten just a little upset because he and his sister had to go on assignment across seas and couldn't come along. in fact she had thought that he was going purely for pleasure. I can't have her know that I'm going to Europe on assignment. It's bad enough I've had to do cancel the last two dates with her because my family was needed be Officer Travis to solve a difficult case. How did I get pulled into this world. I will never know. All I know is that my sister was shot and Phillip knew that I was going to try to go after them. therefore he insisted that I go into the agency and take lessons on shooting a gun and get fitted for a bulletproof vest from what I understand the top of the line. Now I only must wear it when I leave the house for assignment for the agency and for Officer Travis.

Matthew pulled up in front of their home and locjked his car up. He always made sure that his car was locked at all times. He was very touchy about anyone messing with his convertible.

"Jenny, is that you home?" He called out. He had seen the nondescript agency car in front of the house.

"Yeah, I'm home." She called out. "I did start to make us some cookies for the trip over there. It is only a 9 hour flight over and I don't want to be starving when we get there." He had to smile. She might be annoying but she really knows how to put the coals over the fire. Maybe she will be good for something over there.

"You know I think you better get your stuff packed." She suggested looking at him knowing that he didn't have anything packed. "Oh by the way, how's Missie?" She asked mischieviously knowing that he hadn't ever liked it when she got the name of one of his girlfriend's names wrong.

"Nissie." He responded and started up the stairs.

"Oh, I'm sorry Nissie. I'll see you in a few minutes." She called up to him. She knew that he couldn't resist having some fresh hot cookies that you could barely touch but melted in your mouth.

I'm done with my baking I guess I better finish my packing. I think I'll finish washing the dishes. She heard the front door open and realized that her parents were probably home.

"Amanda!!" She heard the voice call.

"She's not here Grandma." She called out of the kitchen.

"Oh, I smelled cookies and I thought Amanda was home." she came into the kitchen.

"It's alright." She said silencing her Grandma with a signal. "One, two, three." She counted quietly.

Just as she said three she heard the footsteps come running down the steps. "Jenny! Are those cookies finished. They certainly smell as they are." he stopped on mid step when he saw who else was in the kitchen with her.

He looked at Jenny a little surprised. He saw her face and knew that he better not say anything that he was really thinking at the moment because he would get into a lot of troule and not from his Mom.

"Matthew, can I talk to you in the living room, please?" She guided him away from the kitchen and into the living room.

"How are we going to get anything past her?" He hissed.

She pulled him outside toward his car so that htey would be out of hearing distance. "We won't. Do you remember when she lived here before she married Captaim Kurt we couldn't get past her? Do you also remember that Dad couldn't get past her? Dad was a spy in the field and he still tries to sneak up on Mom sometimes but it doesn't work anymore." she questioned him trying to calm him down.

"That's why I don't like when she comes to see us and she doesn't call. She just comes home to see us." Matthew answered back.

"Exactly. She does love us and you won't have to see her for the next year. So be nice to her." Jenny reminded her brother. "I think we need to get in there before she eats all those fresh homemade cookies that I just baked for our trip." She led the way into the house.

"Anything important?" Dotty asked her Grandchildren when they walked back into the house.

"Yeah, we're just discussing a trip that we're about to take." Jenny told her Grandma careful to not lie to her.

"Where you going?" The question came as they heard the front door open.

"Mom, we're in here," Jenny called toi her mother grateful that she had come in.

"Mother! How are you doing and where's Captain Kurt?" Amanda asked surprised. Lee followed suit.

"Well I came by to see my family. I was making a drop. Where are the kids going?" Dotty asked looking at her grown grandchildren.

"We are going to visit some relatives on Dad's side of the family." Jenny came up with a plausible answer.

"Aren't they in........" Dotty began to ask.

Everyone shook their head in acknowledgement aware of what she was about to say. For once in her life Dotty didn't have anything to say for just a moment.

"Mother, they are just going abroad. You know that i have done it many a time." Amanda reminded her.

"You were going on agency business and I know that there were other times when you were going out of town that you went once in a while." Dotty answered trying to sound relieved. Why do I think that these two kids of theirs is going on agency business as well? Why is it that my family seems to be all getting involved with the agency?

She broke out of her thoughts for just a moment to say to all the expectant faces, "I'll go upstairs and rest for a while."

"Mom, what's wrong with Grandma? She never goes upstairs to rest for a while." Jenny asked worried.

"Jenny's right, Mom, can you see what's wrong while we finish our packing." Matthew asked looking at her.

She was already going to do that and her children didn't have to ask her to do that. She also knew that they had to finish all of their packing because they were going to Europe possibly for an indefinite time. She definitely felt better knowing that Officer Young Jenny's partner was going to be there in a few days.

****************************************

The next day they were waiting for their plane to arrive after there passports had been looked at. They were going under the names of Jenny Stone and Matthew Stone. Jonathan Francine's husband thought that it was very strange irony because they had never been able to have children and was willing to allow for such a thing. They weren't put down as the parents but it was still an honor to have the Stetson children use those names for the time being.

"Now be prepared when you get there go straight to International Travel Agency and check in there." Amanda was giving her children the instructions once more.

"Mom we know all of this." Jenny whispered to her mother as she embraced her mother for what would be the last time in a long time.

Just then their flight was called and they were rushing to their plane hoping to catch it on time.
