Chapter 7: Troubled Universe
**************************************************************************** ***************************************************************************
After Jack and Jayne finished their dinner, Jayne got her purse and led Jack out to her car. She went to unlock the door and realized that Jack didn't know how to even get in the car. She walked around the vehicle to Jack who was looking for a way to get in.
Jayne laughed softly. "There is a handle you gotta pull up to get in," she said pointing at the handle. Jayne unlocked the door and lifted the handle for him. The car door swung open.
Jack raised his eyebrows and nodded his head. "Brilliant, love." He hopped in the car and sat down on the leather seats. Jayne shut the door and the seatbelt automatically moved back around his shoulder to keep him secure.
Jayne climbed in the driver's seat and the seatbelt did the same to her. Then she took another belt around her waist. Jack copied. She turned her head to Jack and smiled.
"On the highway, I have to go really fast. If you feel sick, just tell me. This a Lexus so it should be a pretty smooth ride," Jayne explained carefully. She started the car and backed out the driveway. She started toward the highway. She looked at him again for a moment. "I should also tell you, Jack, that you are in Boston, Massachusetts. I would've told you this earlier, but I didn't plan on leaving the house for the next couple of days. We're going to see a friend of mine first. I'm gonna tell her everything about you. She's trustworthy and she'll believe us."
Jack was confused. "Why do ya' think she'll believe that a man from the past is in the future, love?" Jack asked.
Jayne reached the highway and sped up. Jack was surprised at the speed. "Well, her culture believes in that stuff. Her grandmother is wise, Jack. Don't worry, she'll help us," Jayne explained further.
"What's her culture?" Jack asked curiously.
"She's Native American. Her grandmother can't speak English but she can understand it. My friend can translate," Jayne replied. She turned onto a dirt road. They drove for about fifteen minutes with complete silence, except a bump every once in while. When they arrived, Jack looked at the very large, modern cabin with huge windows. A girl looked through the window, then ran back.
A teenager opened the french doors and shouted,"Jayne, what are you doin' here?"
Jayne laughed and responded,"Nice to see you too Tawana!" Her and Jack walked up the steps to the house. Jack bowed to Tawana. Tawana bowed slightly in thanks. The same little girl ran up to Jack.
The little tugged on his sleeve and said with a heavy Native American accent, "Grandma Onawa knew you were coming."
Tawana picked up the little girl and said, "Go start Grandma's fire out back, Sora." She looked at Jack and smiled. "I'm sorry if she bothered you. She's not very shy and loves to get to know people," Tawana apologized.
Jack smiled back and replied, "No need to apologize my lady she's young and curious. Also sweet."
Jayne stood up straight and said, "Well I know that Grandma Onawa doesn't like to wait, so shall we?"
Tawana, Jayne, and Jack walked into the house and saw a very old Indian sitting on the floor in the middle of the living room, chanting in her own language. Jack looked at Jayne with a confused expression. Jayne ignored it. Tawana walked up to the old woman and whispered something in her ear then helped her stand up. Tawana and Onawa walked over to Jack and Jayne.
Onawa said something in her language and Tawana translated, "The owl told me you were coming, he told me you are seeking help to get back home she said."
Onawa said something again, "She said to come outside with her to the fire," Tawana translated. She helped her grandmother outside and around to the back yard where Sora had started the fire and was playing with barbies. Tawana sat her Onawa down on a log.
Tawana motioned Jack to sit on the log on the other side of the fire. He did as commanded. Jayne watched Onawa look at Jack with curiosity. Tawana walked over to Jayne and asked, "Who is he? He must be important if Grandma knew he was coming to the ranch."
Jayne was still looking at Jack. "Jack's from the past, Tawana. I know it might be a little hard to believe but I knew you're grandmother could help me get him home. That's all," Jayne explained. Tawana took her arm and started back to the back porch.
Tawana sighed deeply. "That's not all, Jayne. When my grandmother was talked to me, she said she could sense the dove, the bird of love and peace. There's more than just wanting to get him back home, Jayne. If you like him or even love him, don't because you won't be able to let him go."
Jayne turned to Tawana. She sighed. "Yes, there is Tawana. We've become attached and I've only known him for two days. After last night, I realized something I haven't felt in a long time. I actually felt happy with him."
Tawana looked amazed. "Wow. Jayne Smith, happy," she said, partly teasing.
Jayne smiled and looked back at Jack. "I just thought Onawa would be able to tell me why he's here," she admitted.
Tawana and Jayne saw Onawa motion them over. They walked to the fire and Onawa said something and Tawana translated, "She said that the dove brought you two together to see how you would respond to the man," Onawa paused. "The dove now knows what should be done but it's not for anyone's ears. She says that having this man around in this time will cause the Earth to be confused and cause trouble for you two. In other words, the universe is out of balance with him here."
Jayne walked over to Jack. "What did she do while you sat there?" Jayne asked.
Jack looked at Jayne. "She chanted mostly then asked me something....I think," Jack whispered. He stood up and bowed to Onawa on who still sat on the other side. Everybody went inside, including Sora. Once inside and in the living room, Onawa turned to Jayne and wisely said (Tawana translating), "When trouble comes young one, the hyenas will laugh and the rain will fall."
Jayne stood there confused then said the only thing she knew in their language, "Thank you."
Jack and Jayne headed towards the door and out to the car. They hopped in the car and started off the next arrond.
Jack sighed and asked Jayne, "Did you find out anything, love?"
Jayne looked down then back at the road. "Yeah, and don't call me love, Jack," she responded, her voice flat.
They went to the store and bought some groceries. Jayne was silent the whole time and rarely looked at Jack. Jack was confused by the way she was acting.
It started to get dark outside and the temperature dropped. It looked like it was going to rain. At the check-out counter, Jayne set her groceries down.
"I buy canned peaches from my aunt. She lives in an apartment in an alley one block down. We're going to stop by there next, okay?" Jayne explained not even making eye contact with Jack.
Jack responded quietly, "Okay, Jayne."
They put the food in the trunk of the Lexus and started towards the alley. Just before they turned to the alley, it poured down rain. Neither of them cared though. They were about half-way through, when they heard men laughing behind them. Jayne remembered what Onawa had said, "When trouble comes young one, the hyenas will laugh and the rain will fall."
Jack and Jayne turned around and saw five men. Each of them wore all black. Two of them carried crow-bars.
One of the men said still laughing, "Well, we have two love birds here. And one of them is carrying a purse."
Another one said, "Hand over the purse, lady and we'll try not to hurt anyone."
Jayne looked at all of them with disgust, then smiled. "Come and get it then," she offered holding the purse out. Jack looked at her with wide eyes. Jayne winked.
The man who seemed to be the leader of the pack commanded, "Watts, get the girl's purse."
Watts stepped toward cautiously and as he put his hand on the purse, Jayne grabbed his arm and used her knee to break it. Watts screamed in pain and Jayne kicked him in the back, he fell over. Watts started to cry in pain.
Jack looked amazed. The rest of the men got on guard. The leader shouted at another man, "Anderson, kill her!" Anderson ran toward Jayne.
Jack drew his sword, kicked Anderson in the stomach, and stabbed him in the back. Anderson fell over. A man came from behind Jack and held him. Jack struggled but couldn't break free. The leader walked slowly toward Jayne.
"Ya' know, I love girl with spirit," he said with a sick voice.
Jack's rage began. "You touch her and I'll cut yer' eyes out, you bastard!" Jack yelled.
The man laughed and turned his attention back to Jayne. "Ya' know it'd be fun, whore," he spat.
All of them heard a rifle shot and an old woman with a southern accent shout, "I'd have fun shotin' the hell outta you, boy!"
The men ran out of sight. Jayne and Jack turned to see Jayne's aunt.
"Thank you Auntie May, but we have to go before the cops get here." Jayne grabbed the peaches and kissed her aunt goodbye. Jack and Jayne ran back to the car, jumped in, and drove home not really obeying the speed limit.
As soon as they got home, they rushed in the house and into Jayne's room.
Jack stood in the middle of the room, trying to catch some air. "I guess Onawa was right, Jayne," Jack said seriously. Jayne agreed.
They also agreed that Jayne should sleep on the bed since she is the woman of the house. Then, not even ten minutes later, they both fell asleep.
