AN: Hey, thanks for all the reviews! You guys are really sweet! !_! I think I'm updating a little sooner than I'd like, but I got a really good idea and couldn't wait. I don't really think you guys would mind though! '_^ In this chapter, Jet goes through some big changes. I think he'd be rather BAD at accepting and adjusting, but hey! That's just me!

Chapter Five
I'll See You when I See You

I sit here, a weary smile on my face, trying desperately to soak everything up. WOW! So that's that huh? I feel like- like, I don't really know how I feel anymore. I can't believe this. All of my sulking back then. I guess I cheated myself out of the possibilities. I have a family. This woman, she cares so much about me, but I can't say I feel the same for her. I barely even know her, well, remember her.
"Jet? Are you alright?" I snapped out of my daze and looked the woman in the face. Where are my memories? Most likely locked inside of my head somewhere, waiting to come out. Alright, I'm thinking WAY too much for my licking. I sit back in the chair, shaking my head. This is going to be a long day.

I wonder how Jet's doing. I don't think I should bother him though. He probably has a big pill to swallow. I pick mindlessly at my meal, too worried about Jet to even care about it. The sound of Gallows's booming voice startled me and I dropped my fork on the floor.
"You alright, leader?" No.
"Yes, I'm just fine!" I lied, faking a happy- go- lucky smile. He quirks a knowing eyebrow at me and continues eating like a pig. I felt Clives eyes on me, but when I looked, he wasn't even looking up. I got up after excusing myself and walked into the cold snow of open air. Suddenly, I heard a voice, deep and strong, like. LOMBARDIA! I ran out of the town and found her, waiting for me.
"What's wrong Lombardia?" I asked.
"There's an emergency at Humphrey's Peak, you should hurry over there." She said calmly. My brows furrowed in confusion, but I ran back and got Clive and Gallows anyway.
"Clive, Lombardia says there's an emergency at Humphrey's Peak! Hurry!" Clive quickly got up followed b Gallows. Wait! Where's Jet?
"I'll go get Jet! Meet me on Lombardia." I turned quickly, heading in the direction I saw Jet going. I knocked on the cold wooden door. A girl opened the door with a sweet smile.
"Hello, Ma'am, can I help you?"
"Is Jet here?"
"Yes, come in." I walked into the door and waited as she brought Jet through the kitchen door.
"What's wrong?" He asked, a concerned look on his face, but he looked a bit distant.
I lingered on this for a second and then answered, "There's an emergency at Humphrey's Peak! We need you, Jet!" He looked down, as if he were thinking. I grew anxious, wanting to hear his answer.
"Ginny, I -I can't. I'm sure you guys will be alright, but I can't leave right now, I just can't. I'm sorry." He was sincere, I could tell. That didn't stop the pain of going on without him. I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I'm being selfish. He wiped the tear away from my face, pulling me into a quick embrace, whispering, "I love you." Before pushing me toward the door gently. My hand fell upon the door knob.
"Go on Virginia, they can't do anything without you!" What will I do without you?
"When will I see you again?" He looked down a little.
"I'll, I'll see you when I see you. Now go!" I felt a pang of hurt in my heart, I know he means well, I know he's going through something tough, but I miss him already. I turn the knob and run shakily though the town, bumping into a man with spiky brown hair on the way. I muttered my apologies to him before continuing to Lombardia, without my Jet.

I feel s bad. I feel like I just killed an innocent animal. Why did this have to happen now? I need her, she needs me, and I know it. But I can't leave now. I might not have the strength or stability to leave for a while. Be careful, Virginia, Clive and Gallows (even though you are an idiot.). You guys are still my family. I hope everything is okay at Humphrey's Peak. I let out a heavy sigh and lean against the wall, running my hand through my hair. My eyes fall upon Jade, I forgot she was even here. She looks concerned.
"Are you okay?" How sweet.
"I'll be fine, just worried about some friends." Worried doesn't even begin to express it. What if they fail without me and somethin' really bad happens? Then what? It will be all my fault! Kay, Jet, have faith in them. As long as Gallows dosen't get too pissed of f and loose his focus, they'll be fine. And as long as Virginia isn't thinking about me. GAURDIANS!! This isn't helping much!
A knock came at the door and I watched intently as Jade opened the door. 'Hi Gabe!' I hear Jade say. Gabe? Gabe. That guy from my memory. My cousin, as that woman puts it. He comes into the door and when he sees me, he freezes. I try to keep from giving him a strange look, but hell, what else am I supposed to do?
"J- Jet?!" He comes up to me, I expect, well I don't really know what to expect, but he PUSHES me!! What the hell!? Normally I would drop kick any a$$ hole who pushed me, but I'm too darn shocked. I stumble back a bit, still shocked.
"Well, how the hell r ya'?! I thought you were dead!" O.K.
"Ummm." All I can do is scratch my head- mental block.
"It's me! . Gabe???" Y e a h, Gabe. And? Okay, Jet, wake up!
"Oh, okay." He gives me this weird look and looks to Jade for answers.
"What? Did I push him too hard?" He asks Jade. She smiles cheekily.
"No, he kinda lost his memory. Um, let's go in the kitchen with mom."

"You lost your memory? Then I guess you forgot how much money I owe you, huh?" I cock an eyebrow at him. YOU OWE ME MONEY!?? I'm sure I'll remember that eventually. This guy sure is a character.
"I would never forget something like that. well at least not for long!" He laughs, patting me on the shoulder as he passes me to the kitchen. I follow, confused. I look down at Jade, she just smiles and shrugs. This kid smiles too much! But she's cute, so she can get away with it. I shake my head and continue into the kitchen.
