It had only been a few hours since he had been dropped off at Earth that Captain Jack was hungry for a new adventure.
This world was big enough, he was sure that there had to be some place in it that have for decent times, fighting villains and sailing through the sky.
Jack walked along the lightly populated streets, and the sweet freshness of serenity filled his nose. The little children played and their mothers and fathers laughed, and it was impossible not to grin from ear to ear when you watched them.
He kept walking, silently thinking to himself, and occasionally saying hello to a passing pedestrian or bicyclist.
It took him a full two weeks of spending time with Mickey and Martha eating at restaurants, going to the movies, and bowling along with dozens of other things to decide that he had made his choice about what to do here.
So he bought himself a plane ticket, and said his goodbyes and see-you-soon's.
He was going to New York City, and then Paris. He wasn't going to look for danger; he was taking opportunities. And if you saw him walking along the city streets, a certain pride in his stride and a half-smile on his face, you could tell that he was going to see the world. The one world that he had never explored.
