My Gift To Her

Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to Tru Calling.

Chapter Two

Now it was time for me to begin the hunt for Fate's intended victim. How hard could it be to find some dumb horse named Evening Star in this city? The answer is very hard. But I couldn't waste time by waiting for Tru to figure it all out. If I waited on Tru, I wouldn't be able to outwit her. But it would mean getting to see Tru.

No, I must stay focused on my job. My job is to keep Fate happy, not to fall in love with Life, even if Life is Tru. But her parents were Life and Death so maybe it helps keep the balance of the universe in order. Stop thinking about her and get on with your job!

I headed out to my car and drove out of the main part of the city, heading for the outskirts where the country could be found. In the country I should be able to find his nag and make sure it killed it's rider. I must find this person before Tru does.

Ten horse barns later (who knew there were so many?), I found the correct one. There was the nameplate that I had seen. Of course, my job wouldn't be so hard if the horse was in it's home. But the horse wasn't and I had never seen the horse. Focus, Jack, focus.

Colorful poles, where could they be? Ahh, I see them now, outside inside a dirt arena. No one is in sight though. What else did I see? Black, white, and purple. Was the horse black? That would make sense if the horse was named Evening Star wouldn't it?

Anytime now, I will see her. Anytime now Tru will appear. Where is she? Where is Tru? Why haven't I seen her yet?

Focus, Jack, you have a job to do…

Author's Notes:

Another short chapter. Hopefully I will think of some more soon and update!

Reviewers!

(Prologue)

Cherrygurl1225 – Glad you like it! Yeah, Jack doesn't like rewinds and he has too much time on his hands for schemes.

(Chapter One)

Cherrygurl1225 – Glad you liked chapter one! His job is going to be a major problem later on in this fic. Sorry if this is a bad chapter compared to the last one. It's getting easier to write as Jack now.

Katy – I've very happy that you like this! The final episode is one of my favorites and I finally decided to write a fic following it.

ilovecrazypeople – I'm glad you like it! I'm going to try to update more often!

little firecracker – Always to good know that someone else likes the way Jack is written!
