Disclaimer: Like I've said before, Hotch and Jack are not mine, but everyone else in this chapter is.

A little while after digging for seashells, Hotch and Jack decided to take a little walk on the beach. Soon they were greeted by a young woman in a long white dress with orange flowers printed on it and an orange flower in her hair. She was standing in front of a shack. The shack was filled with children who were happily making things.

"Aloha, there!" The woman happily greeted Hotch and Jack with a smile.

"Aloha." Jack and Hotch said in unison.

"Are you two from here?" The woman.

"No, we're from D.C." Hotch said. "We're just here on vacation."

"Oh, I see. You've traveled a long way. Are you enjoying your stay here, so far?"

"Yeah, we love it here!" Jack chimed in.

With a small laugh, the woman said, "Well, I'm glad you love it here. Would you like to join some of the other children with making some arts and crafts? It doesn't cost anything.

Jack looked up at his dad, "Daddy, can I?"

"Of course you can, buddy. I'm going to continue to take a walk. I come back for you in a little bit, okay?"

"Okay daddy. See you later." Jack hugged Hotch and then entered the shack with the woman.

While Jack was in the arts and crafts shack, Hotch was now near the ocean. His feet were getting soaked by the waves. There were a bunch of people in the water and a lifeguard tower had caught Hotch's eye. The tower was empty and Hotch had got an idea from it.

Climbing to the top of the lifeguard tower and sitting down in the chair, Hotch was glad to see a bullhorn there. He picked it up and spoke into it.

"ATTENTION EVERYONE IN THE WATER! I DON'T MEAN TO ALARM ANY OF YOU, BUT I'VE GOTTEN MANY REPORTS OF A SHARK BEING IN THE WATER! I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S TRUE OR NOT! IT COULD BE JUST A FALSE REPORT, BUT AT LEAST TEN DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAVE SPOTTED IT! I ADVICE YOU THAT IF YOU SEE A SHARK, DO NOT PANIC! I REPEAT DO NOT PANIC! JUST EXIT THE WATER IN A SLOW AND CALM FASHION! YOU DON'T WANT TO DRAW ANY ATTENTION TO THE SHARK! WE DON'T WANT ANY INJURIES OR FATALITIES HERE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ENJOY YOUR FUN IN THE WATER!"

Sure enough as Hotch had guessed, everyone in the water was now screaming and scrambling to get out. A few of them had even abandoned their surf boards out in the middle of the ocean. Within seconds, everyone had gotten out of the ocean and onto dry land. Hotch quickly climbed down from the lifeguard tower, laughing. He couldn't believe that they actually thought there was a shark nearby and he was amazed at how fast they all got out of the water.

After scaring just about everyone at the beach with the possible scare of a shark being close by, Hotch decided to check on Jack. He made his way up to the arts and crafts shack and saw his son, laughing and having a good time with the other children, while making tee-shirts. Hotch quietly snuck up behind him and lightly placed a hand on his shoulder. Slightly startled, Jack turned to see him.

"Daddy, you scared me. Look what I made!" Jack proudly held up his tee-shirt.

"I'm sorry for scaring you buddy." Hotch apologized. "You made this all by yourself?"

"Yep, no one helped me."

"That's really good, Jack. I didn't know you could sew." Hotch jokingly teased.

Jack let out a laugh and said, "No daddy, I didn't sew it. I just painted it. It's a picture of the beach. Do you like it?"

"I love it. You did a very good job on it."

"Thanks daddy."

"You're welcome. You ready to go back down to the beach?" Hotch asked.

"Yeah." Jack replied.

When Hotch and Jack returned to the beach, Jack was surprised to see that no one was in the water. All he saw was a group of people, gathered around and looking out at the water. He curiously wondered what they were doing.

"Daddy, why is no one swimming and what are all those people doing over there? Are they bird watching?" Jack pointed to the group.

"Uh, no. They're not bird watching. Those people are shark watching."

"Shark watching? What do you mean by that?"

"Well… when you were in the arts and crafts shack, I kind of scared everyone out of the water, by telling them that there's a shark on the loose. And now they trying to find it."

Jack stared at his father with wide eyes, "Daddy, you scared all those people out of the water?!"

Smiling at his son's reaction, Hotch said, "Yeah… the lifeguard tower was calling my name and I just had to do that prank. They'll realize soon that there really isn't a shark and they will all get back in the water. It was a really great prank though. You had to be there to see the looks on their faces."

Much to Hotch's amazement, a smile crossed Jack's face. "Were they really scared, daddy?"

"They were terrified."
