Chapter number 4. Family stick by you, not leave you.

"Oh my gosh, so you mean he goes after you no matter where you go?" Martha asked in shock.

"Yeah, he always finds a way to track me down" Jack told her.

"So what happens when he starts spreading the word?" Beth asked.

"Well most likely we'll have to leave again".

"But you only just got here" Martha said sadly.

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean anything to Harry Chambers, all he cares about is getting rid of me again, and then he'll track me down again".

"Is there anything we can do, like telling your side of the story first or something like that?" Scott asked, showing he was willing to help.

"I don't know, I just wish Harry would except that his daughter was doing something wrong, and that's why I had no choice but to shot her".

"Well if you think of anything we can do then let us know, ok?" Beth said lending her support as well.

"I will" Jack answered.

"Ok, well then we'll see you later" Scott told him.

"Ok bye".

When Beth and Scott left Jack turned his attention back to Martha who was sitting next to him on the couch. "So you don't hate me do you?" he asked putting his arm around her shoulders.

"No of course not, how could anyone hate someone like you" Martha told him.

"Quite easily, especially when they hear Harry's side of the story first".

"Which makes them all idiots" Martha added before kissing him, she'd only known him for about twenty four hours and already she was obsessed with kissing him. Jack didn't seem to mind though, he just kissed her back happily.

"I hope there not the same here" Jack said when they pulled apart.

"No it's going to be different this time".

"What makes you think that?".

"My granddad is respected by everyone around here, he's lived here as long as he can remember and when he hears your side of the story, he'll make sure that you get a fair go in this town" Martha told him.

"Really?"

"Really" she reassured him. "Stop worrying about it, whatever happens, happens" Martha told him silencing him with more kisses.

Dinner eventually happened and they began to eat "This is beautiful" Martha told him after her first few mouth fulls.

"Glad you like it".

It was two and a half weeks until Harry Chambers made his next move by throwing a brick through the front window of the Holden's house, Jack got a good look at the car that was racing away, and sure enough it was Harry. "Don't worry mate, I'll make sure you get a fair go" Alf had told him, but how did he know it would happen, it was everyone else he had to prove his innocents to not Alf.

"So what are we going to do next?" Tony asked taking a deep breath and putting the news paper on the coffee table from where he was sitting on the couch.

"I'll see what transfers are available at the station" Jack said grabbing his jacket and heading for the door.

"Hey not so fast" Tony told him.

"Yeah Jack, anywhere we run, he'll find us, why can't we just see how it will turn out this once" Lucas asked.

"Luc's right mate, you never know, it could turn out ok".

"Or maybe not" Lucas told them from the bench where he was flickering with the radio and turned it up so they could all hear.

Harry's voice was on there "I'll be holding a town meeting this afternoon to make you all aware about the danger you have been put in".

"Were finished" Jack confirmed.

"No mate, were not".

"Look I can't keep dragging you two into this, I'll got by myself this time, I can't keep being a burden on you" Jack told them.

"Your not a burden Jack, were family, we stick together" Tony told him.

"Yeah dad's right" Lucas agreed.

"Alright I'll stay for now, but if it doesn't turn out then I'm leaving by myself, ok".

"Knock knock" Martha's voice called from the door.

"Come in" Jack called back.

"Jack, have you seen..." Martha started and then stopped when she saw the looks on everyone's faces. "You've heard already haven't you?"

"If this is about the town meeting were talking about then yeah we have" Jack answered her.

"Yeah, granddad's doing his best to try and get a word in, it's on right now" Martha told them.
