A/N: I love it when fanfiction has more than one POV in it, so I have some of that for you today. However I'm going to try and keep them all in time... hopefully it works. Then I put some stuff after it, ya know, so it's not me just repeating myself, entirely.

Also, it's been awhile. Hey, sorry about that... to make up for it instead of describing my OC Reader, ill put in "(H/C) (hair color)", "(E/C) eye color", and "(H/L) (hair length)" for you Readers. The title is deceiving and I don't want to gyp you guys.

-On the Train Hideout (before the crash) –

Evie looks over her books and papers muttering to herself about this and that. While Evie is formulating the next step in her search to find the piece of Eden, Henry paces behind her looking over a paper or two of his own. While the two dig for their next lead, Jacob had draped himself over the chaise he had claimed as a bed in the next car over. His soft snores mixed with the on going rhythm of the clicking tracks beneath the train, proved a rare and peaceful ambiance that life on the train nearly never saw.

Evie stops her murmuring and sits up right ever so slightly. Henry, taking note of new silence, appears over her shoulder. He supports his weight around her with one hand on the back of her chair and the other on the desk, "did you find something?"

" I just may have, it says here that a fair amount of the Templar finances are being spent, and a multitude of resources are being dropped off at this building here, in Lambeth" she looks up to see henry inspecting the spot next to Evie's finger on a map.

He turns his head to meet her gaze, " Miss Frye, what do you think they are doing there?"

Evie stands up from her chair to turn towards Henry, "I'm not sure, but whatever it is its pretty important if the Templars are investing so much into it" she responds with a smile of excitement.

"Are you going now to find out?" he turns to watch her move towards the door.

Evie stops in the doorway at his words and turns her head to look at him, "that's exactly what I planned on doing. Mr. Green, would you perhaps like to accompany me?"

Henry was caught a little off guard by the invitation and struggled to find the words in the moment, "oh, um not this time, ill stay on the train and try to find any more information."

Slightly disappointed Evie moves her attention from Henry, to London passing by, "ok then ill be back later" she closes the conversation by casually jumping off the train.

-Jacob's POV-

I had been awoken by Evie and Greenie's voices becoming oddly loud in the other cart. Evie must have found something on her Piece of Eden of what ever it is that she is looking for. I rolled over on the chaise to try and fall back asleep. Last night was brutal, I don't remember much, the most I could remember is: Charles Dickens, going to the bar, meeting some blighters, and waking up just now with a headache and a few random body pains. Trying to fall back to sleep was proving pointless so I decide to role back and look at the other side of the train car before moving to get up. During a much-needed stretch I found some more pains here and there but I can handle it, I've felt much worse.

I walk to the doorway of Evie's train car to see what the commotion was; just as I got there I see Evie leaving the opposite side of the car.

Henry looks right at me practically queuing me to throw some witty comment at him, "did you and my dear sister find something more interesting than each other?" Henry opens his mouth to say something but I reach over to play with a trinket I found on a shelf and continue before he speaks, "I find that hard to believe"
