Chapter 2: Home Again/Graduation Jim's part

"Now, I've already had the law officials' know that you've been pardoned Mr. Silver so that shouldn't be a problem, nor should anyone aside from Delbert and B.E.N. recognize you." Caption Amelia said as they exited the ship.

"You call him by his first name now, eh?" Silver asked.

"A lot has changed in the past five years Silver, a lot has changed." Jim said.

"Well, I guess this is where we part ways." Kate said, "See you at graduation Hawkins." Kate said before heading off.

"Yeah, see you there." Jim said turning back to look at her.

The sun had just set when the group reached the Benbow in and Jim could see his mother's silhouette as well as Delbert and his four kids' in a window.

"We should probably enter first." Jim said looking at Silver.

Silver nodded, he'd seen them too, though he didn't recognize the children.

"Hey, we're back." Jim said, "And we brought someone with us, but you have to promise not to freak out."

"James Pleiades Hawkins, what did you do now that requires me not to freak out?" Sarah asked.

"Trust me, it's fine, and it was directed more twords Delbert." Jim said.

"Fine, who or what did you bring?" Sarah asked.

Jim stepped out of the way to reveal Silver.

"Jim are you mad!?" Delbert asked.

"Calm down darling," Amelia said, "he's turned over a new leaf and has been pardoned of his crimes for helping aid the Navy during the Battle at Procyons."

"Well, alright." Delbert said as Amelia picked up one of her daughters, Victoria.

"Darling?" Silver asked, "Never thought I'd hear you call him that."

"Told you a lot has changed." Jim said.

"Alright, well I believe we should talk about what tonight's specialty should be because I checked and we didn't have one." B.E.N. said walking into the room.

He gasped when he saw Silver.

"Oh no! It's him!" he cried.

"Shh!" Everyone hissed.

"B.E.N. it's okay, he's on our side now." Jim said.

"Oh, well that's a relief." B.E.N. said.

"Hey, where's Morph?" Jim asked, "He's usually the first to greet me."

A vase with flowers on a table began to wiggle before dissolving into a pink blob that zoomed over to Jim, rubbing against his cheek and licking him affectionately.

"I missed you too Morph." Jim said, "Too bad I couldn't have you at the Academy with me."

"Ah, Morphy." Silver said as Morph flew over to him, "I've missed you too."

"So, I suppose you don't have anywhere to go." Sarah said.

"That-that would be correct." Silver said.

Sarah shook her head smirking.

"Well, it's been getting pretty hard keeping up with everyone here so I'll make you a deal, you help out here at the inn and you can stay free of charge." She said.

Silver paused to think about her offer.

"Well, I don't have anything better to do, so you got yourself a deal." He said.

"You know mom, his cooking could really give yours a run for the money." Jim said.

"Oh really?" Sarah asked raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms.

"I'm gonna have to agree with Jim on this one," Delbert said, "While we were in space his cooking was some of the best I've ever had."

Sarah smiled and shook her head.

"I'm heading to bed," Jim said, "I have to get up early tomorrow to head back to the Academy."

"Alright, sleep well, okay?" Sarah asked.

Jim nodded and headed up the stairs to his room.

Jim heard a trumpet blaring in his ear making him bolt up.

"Morph!" he cried looking at the floating trumpet that was laughing.

"Get up, get up, get up!" Morph cried transforming into Sarah.

Jim groaned and looked at the clock. His eyes widened.

"Shit!" he cried throwing off his sheets and rushing to get ready.

Sarah, Delbert, Amelia, Silver, B.E.N., and the kids heard a loud crash come from upstairs.

"Well, I think he's finally up." Sarah said, "You'd think he'd of been up before the rest of us though."

"Hey! Morph! I don't have time for games! Give it back!" Jim's voice cried.

Morph came down the stairs holding one of Jim's boot followed by Jim fully dressed aside from only having one boot on.

"You should have been up three hours ago." Sarah stated as Jim finally caught Morph.

"I know that!" Jim said putting the boot on, "You don't have to remind me."

'Now I remember one of the reasons why I hated Kate so much,' he thought, 'she was always nagging me the same way mom does.'

"Alright, well I better get going, I'll see you guys tomorrow!" Jim said heading for the door.

"Don't you want to eat?" Sarah asked.

"I can eat when I get back to the Academy!" Jim cried looking over his shoulder and throwing open the front door.

He started to rush out it but stopped when he saw Kate outside it.

"Still running behind schedule?" she asked smirking.

"Oh shut up." Jim groaned, "Why are you even here?"

"I figured it would be nice to have company while heading to the ship, I've been out here for three hours straight waiting for you." Kate said.

"Aw, now isn't that sweet?" B.E.N. said, "Jimmy, I didn't know you had a…"

"Friend." Both Jim and Kate said.

"We're just friends." Jim clarified.

"Isn't that the girl you said you couldn't stand?" Sarah asked.

"Yeah, well, we figured that there's really no point in continuing to act like toddlers so we decided to start over as friends." Jim said.

"And don't worry; I'll make sure he gets to the ship on time." Kate said checking her watch, "If we leave now we should be able to get to it ten minutes before it leaves, er, nine minutes now."

"Let's just go." Jim said walking around her.

"Bye everyone!" Kate called waving as she shut the door.

"You know, if you were really out there that long, why didn't you just come in?" Jim asked.

"I was actually about the when you opened the door and almost ran me over." Kate said.

Jim yawned.

"Remind me why we had to be up before sunrise?" he asked.

"How should I know?" Kate asked, "I don't make the schedule, I follow it."

"Whatever." Jim said yawning again, "At least you didn't wake up to a trumpet being blown in your ear by your pet."

"Your pet knows how to play the trumpet?" Kate asked bewildered.

Jim laughed.

"No, Morph, my pet well, Morph, he's a…" he started.

"Shapeshifter, yes, I read about those." Kate said.

"I got him from Silver five years ago so he was already named Morph." Jim said beating her to her next question.

Kate laughed.

"You know, I'm surprised," she said, "we only agreed to try and be friends yesterday, and yet we've been acting as if we've been friends for years."

"Yeah, I guess we have." Jim said.

"You know, I was always jealous of you at the Academy," Kate admitted, "I spent years training to get in and you got in thanks to a mere recommendation."

"Trust me; I had to work hard too." Jim said, "I was Cabin boy on the R.L.S. Legacy, if I hadn't saved everyone fromTreasure Planet's self-destruction with my Solar Surfing skills, I highly doubt that even if we'd somehow made it off the planet before it exploded I'd of gotten Caption Amelia's recommendation."

"Cabin boy, eh?" Kate asked smirking.

"Don't you dare tell anyone about that!" Jim said glaring.

Kate laughed.

"Don't worry, I won't." she said, "I'm just surprised, guess that's how you became humbler than you were before the Benbow Inn had been burnt to the ground, isn't it?"

Jim smirked and rolled his eyes.

The duo continued to talk until they reached the ship and boarded it.

"Told you we'd get here nine minutes before it left." Kate said laughing.

Jim just nodded as they both peered over the side of the ship.

"Looks like the sun's finally coming up." Jim said.

"I'm glad I'm out here," Kate said, "the sunrise is the reason I'm always up early, when you live with my mom, you very rarely find a way to be calm and feel at peace, sunrise and sunset are the only times I can feel that way when I'm here."

Jim looked at her a bit shocked, sure he knew her mother was infuriating, and that she tended to have her mind set lost about a century behind the current one most of the time, but to hear Kate say there were only two times she wasn't ready to hurl her off a cliff like most people said they wanted to, it was a bit of a surprise.

"I guess that sounds stupid though." Kate said.

"No, not at all." Jim said, "I'm surprised you said that though, I assumed you'd be the only one who didn't dislike her, almost every time she'd leave the inn either me, my mom, or Delbert would say that we'd love to just throw her off a cliff."

"Delbert, my mom, or I." Kate corrected.

Jim laughed and gave her a slight shove.

"Really?" Jim asked, "You're correcting my grammar now?"

Kate laughed as she turned to face him.

"Would I be me if I didn't?" she asked.

"No, I guess… not." Jim said staring.

The light from the sunrise had made Kate's reddish-orange hair look as if it were on fire and her eyes that were just a shade darker than her hair glow like embers.

"I-I'm just gonna go look around the ship." Jim said quickly excusing himself.

"Okay..." Kate said as he walked away.

'What was that about?' Jim wondered, 'Why'd I suddenly just stare at her?'

He sighed. He had an idea, but he was sure that it couldn't be the case.

Jim glanced at Kate as they stood in line to receive their badges waiting for the ceremony to start. She noticed and smiled at him, which he returned. Breaking eye contact he looked around at the audience trying to spot his mother and friends. It didn't take long because B.E.N. noticed and started calling out to him only to be shushed by the others. Normally Jim would be embarrassed, but this time, he couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.

He had to straighten up just then as the Ceremony started.

"Now, normally we only have one Cadet to award Top Rank to; however, this year's group had two who tied for Top Rank as well as for Most Outstanding Performance." Caption Amelia said.

'Why do I get the feeling I know exactly the two names she's going to call?' Jim wondered.

"One of which is greatly amazing to have received Top Rank." Caption Amelia said shooting a glare at the lineup, but Jim knew it was meant for him.

He forced himself not to roll his eyes and give himself away, though he already knew that his mother and friends knew who she meant.

"Those two Cadets are Mr. Jim Hawkins and Ms. Kate Myers." Caption Amelia announced.

The entire audience cheered, but no one was cheering harder than Jim's mother and friends.

"Mr. Hawkins, Ms. Myers, please step forward to receive your badges." Caption Amelia said.

Jim and Kate stepped forward and received their badges before stepping back in line.

The Ceremony lasted another two hours before it was over and everyone was eager to get off the stage.

"Jimmy, you were amazing up there!" B.E.N. cried before hugging him. "Come here!"

Jim laughed and hugged him back.

"I told you-you were destined for greatness!" Silver said clapping Jim on the shoulder once B.E.N. finally let go.

"I always knew you could do it Jim." Delbert said.

"I'm so proud of you." Sarah said.

"I told you I'd make you proud, didn't I?" Jim asked.

"Good job Jim." Kate's voice said from behind.

"You too Kate." Jim said turning to face her.

Kate smiled.

"So, what now?" she asked, "Are you just going to go back to working at the Inn?"

"For now." Jim said, "After spending five years away from home, I think it's best I spend some time there before heading out into space again."

Kate gave a small smile.

"What about you?" Jim asked.

Kate sighed.

"Go back home and start hating being alive again." She said.

"It's that bad?" Jim asked.

Kate shrugged.

"I dunno, maybe I'm over exaggerating, but after my dad died, well, I think mom got a couple of screws loose." She said.

"Well, hang in there, alright?" Jim asked, "Things will get better, you'll see."

"Thanks, Jim." Kate said smiling.

"No problem." Jim said.

"Mind if I return with you?" Kate asked, "I honestly don't feel like taking the ship back."

Jim shared a look with the others before nodding.

"Sure." Jim said.

Kate smiled.

"Well, I'll see you around." Kate said once they landed.

"Hey," Jim said, "stop by the Inn sometime, okay?"

Kate smiled.

"Sure, well see ya." She said.

Jim frowned as Kate walked away, he could tell she was dreading to return to her house and was starting to worry about her.

'Kate's a strong Cadet; she'll be able to handle herself.' He thought to himself, yet even by the time they got back to the Inn he wasn't convinced.

SPH: Whew! Okay, done with Chapter 2! Now, Chapter 3 is basically going to be the same, only it focusses on Kate's side of the story because since this is about Kate and Jim and the following chapters are going to be focusing on the both of them more or less at the same time I figured rather than have an extra-long chapter flip-flopping between both Jim and Kate's thoughts I'd just do separate chapters focusing on only one's side of the story. So, I decided that I'm not gonna do questions until chapter four. Please tell me what you guys thought in the comments, I love getting feedback from you guys, it really means a lot to me. Alright, this is Samantha Peace HeartStar signing off for now! Peace out and keep spreading the Treasure Planet love! See ya!
