Jack had spent the day with Indiana, Howl and Anidori because Jefferson was helping David with a few things, Jack was worried about the man, he had been drinking alcohol before he left to meet up with David. Jack was swinging back and forth on the swing in the park whilst Indiana looked after his little sister and Howl lay beside the stroller, Howl had become extremely overprotective of the baby girl, but Jack wondered if this is what normal life would always be like for his family. Would they always have a new problem to solve? Would someone always be trying to take away their happiness? Would everyone always be fighting? He didn't know.

Something was wrong... Jack didn't know what but something was wrong, the wind was blowing harsher than usual and he was glad to see his old friend, he felt the wind change direction and it started to push his swing and it made him laugh and hold on tighter to the chain of the swing as the wind pushed him higher and higher, he slipped off of the seat and was going to scream until he was gently placed onto the ground by the wind and he laughed.

He looked over to Indiana who was holding Anidori but he noticed that she was crying as she gently rocked the baby, he was confused as to why she was crying, was she hurt? Did Dori do something? She couldn't have done anything she was too small! Did Howl scratch her? He didn't know but he wanted to make sure that she was okay so he made his way over to sit beside her "are you okay Indi?" He asks her and she wipes her eyes and smiles at him "I'm fine little man." She says and he tilts his head confused "but your crying?" He says confused and she nods her head.

"I just miss some very special people, do you understand what I mean when I say that?" She says and Jack nods his head "did you have a baby?" He asks her and she takes a few deep breaths before nodding her head and wiping her tears away "I did yes... I had a partner and a beautiful baby girl... we hadn't had a chance to get married yet..." She smiles and Jack is confused "well... then where are they?" He asks her innocently and she smiled at the boy "I don't know Jack... I was on Neverland for so long... I have no idea if they're even still alive." She admits to the boy who just wraps his arms around Indiana who smiles at the boy as she still holds the baby.

"What were their names?" He asks her and she smiles "my partners name was Flynn and our daughter was called Penny... she was a little older than Anidori was when I last saw her, she had beautiful ginger hair, it was funny... because we didn't know where it came from! Me and Flynn both have brown hair." She laughs and Jack smiles at her "well... if there's one thing I learned about this family it's that they always have a way of finding each other." He says with a smile and Indiana smiles down at him "you really know how to cheer people up kiddo." She says and he smiled proudly before he looked back around the park "do you think mama will be okay?" He asks her and she sighs.

"I think she will be, your mother is one of the toughest women I've ever met, and she's a Jones so she's strong... but I don't know what kind of magic is being used on her." Indiana tells him and he nods his head "I understand... I just wish she was here, I miss her hugs... they were different, they were mama hugs." He says sadly and Indiana feels her heart break for the boy, she can only imagine what Jefferson is feeling like and Grace.

If you were to ask Jefferson Hatter how he was at this second in time he would tell you 'I'm coping fine.' And this way of coping was drinking, not sleeping, and always looking at his wives things but he would tell you this is him coping. He was currently with David who was not believing a thing that he was saying about coping "you know that I know your lying right?" He asks the man who just nods "yeah I know." He says as they keep walking around looking for anyone Jefferson could recognise as the wicked witch. "She'll be okay Jefferson, she's faces worse and been fine." David reassured him and he nodded his head "I know that... it's just the not knowing what's wrong with her right now that's killing me." Jefferson admits and David nods his head.
