Rosi POV

"Do you know who it was John?" Nana asked.
"No. I don't know who he was. I just had a bad feeling and decided that we needed to leave." John lied.
He knows who it was! Why won't he tell us?
"Alright let's set this blanket down so we can all sit down and eat." Nana said
"Ok." John said helping Nana and Masako spread the blanket.
"Yay!" Sarah squealed.
"Lunch is served." Charles said dramatically while placing the picnic basket down on the blanket.
"So we have grapes, strawberries with cream cheese, soda, tea, and bottles of water and two loafs of bread for our sandwich meats. And chocolate cake, strawberry cake, and Anzac biscuits!" Charles exclaimed pulling out the items he named.
"Anzac biscuits?" Mai asked obviously confused.
"Anzacs are the best Mai!" John exclaimed.
"They are made of oats, coconut, butter, sugar, and syrup. They are really sweet." He continued listing the simple ingredients.

"Oh they sound good." Mai commented
"They are Mai." I said handing her one.
"Mmmm. They are!" Mai exclaimed.
"Masako? Yasu? Would you like to try them?" I asked.
"Ok." Yasu said
"I guess so." Masako answered thoughtfully.

"They are good." Yasu commented.
"Very good." Masako added.

"Char?" John asked.
"Yes?"
"You are watching over aunt Shelly's cats, right? Lucy and piper." He continued.
"Yes, I am." Charles replied.
"Why?"
"Pardon?" Charles asked.
"Grandfather is allergic and said no cats were allowed in the manor but...."
"I persuaded him." Charles said innocently.
"I told him they would not get anywhere near him and they haven't." He continued.
"Is that all you had to do?" I asked in disbelief.
" He let Charles have a cat!"
"Two cats! He never let us have a cat!" I exclaimed siding with my brother.
"That's not fair." I continued mentally sighing.
"I know."
"Hey if you two are going to talk, talk out loud not telepathically!" Nana scolded us.
"Sorry." We mumbled.
"Are you sorry?" John asked.
"No. Are you?"
"No." He replied smiling at me.
"Maybe if we don't look at each other or react to the conversation, she won't know." I suggested.
"Maybe."
"Let's try and talk to Mai!" I exclaimed loudly causing John to wince.
"I don't kno..."
"Mai!" I yelled cutting him off.
"Mai?" John asked quietly.
"What! Who? John? Rosi?" Mai asked startled by the sudden voices in her head.
"Hi." I said happy that it worked.
"Um..hello."
"Yay! We can talk to Mai and Yasu telepathically! Let's try and talk to Masako next!" I exclaimed.
"Wait. When did you talk to Yas..."
"Masako!" I exclaimed cutting my twin off.
"Yes Rosi?" Masako asked not phased at all.
"Ok so now we are all connected."
"What about Char and Na..." John started to say.
"I don't want them to hear us." I explained cutting him off again.
"Would you stop that! And actually let me finish a sentence?" John retorted.
"Yes but first I want...we want to know who you saw." I said while Mai, Yasu, and Masako nodded.
"We know you well enough to know that whoever you saw spooked you." I continued.
"Just a creep. He freaked me out that's it." John stated putting an end to our telepathic link.

John POV

"Everyone ready to go now?" Char asked starting the car
"No." I said suddenly causing everyone to look at me.
"Take us to Woodlands please." I continued.
I told Masako and Mai we'd see some kangaroos and we are going to see some kangaroos.
"The wildlife park John?" Nana asked.
"Yeah. We need to see some roos." I replied smirking.
"Alright." Char said smiling.
"Kangaroos?" Mai asked.
"Yep!"
"Really?!" Masako exclaimed.
"Yay we're gonna see some kangas!" Sarah exclaimed.
•.•.•20 minutes later•.•.•

"They're so cute!"
And "I want one!" Was all that could be heard from the non-Australians in the group. Even Nana wanted one.

•.•.• 2 hours and several photographs later back at the manor •.•.•

"Thank you for taking us to see kangaroos!" Mai exclaimed.
"Your welcome." I said
"Miss Hara. Mai. I need your assistance." Naru stated walking into the room.
"Ok." Masa replied.
"Sure Naru." Mai said.
"Is there anything I can help with?" I asked.
"No. Not at the moment. I will need everyone's help later on." Naru stated walking out of the room with Masako and Mai following him.
"Well I'm going to take a nap until the big boss needs us." Yasu said kissing Rosi on the cheek and walking to his room.
A nap doesn't sound too bad.
"It's been a long day." Ro commented.
"Yes it has." I mumbled exhaustion hitting me like a ton of bricks.
"You look tired. Why don't you go take a nap." Nana suggested.
"Ok." I mumbled. I still need to adjust to these time differences.
•.•.•.•.•10 minutes later•.•.•.•.•
Rosi POV

"He's exhausted." I stated.
"Yes he is." Nana agreed.
"Whoever he saw at the park spooked him."
"Yes they did. Well I have to go pick something up. I'll be back." Nana stated
"Ok bye." I mumbled.
"Mistress Rosi?"
"Charles?"
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine Charles. I'm just worried about John."
"Well there's not much we can do for him is there? I mean if he won't tell us what's wrong." Charles stated.
"You're right."
"Where is he?" Charles asked
"He went to take a nap."
"Rosalie." Charles whispered taking me by surprise.
"Yes?"
"I think I know who he saw. He was terrified. He's only that scared of one..." Charles didn't even get to finish his sentence before I was out of the room and halfway up the stairs.

"John?" I asked knocking on the door.
"John?" I asked a little louder.
"Stop." I heard John mumble.
He's talking in his sleep?
"Please stop."
"Please stop."
"Help. Please stop." John whispered
Oh no. He's having another nightmare.
"John!" I exclaimed walking into his room.
"Stop. Stop!"
"John! Wake up! You're dreaming! I exclaimed shaking him trying to snap him out of it.
"No! No! Stop!" John exclaimed frantically trying to get away from me.
"John you're dreaming!"
"What's going on?" Naru asked from the door.
"He's having a nightmare." I stated.
"Stop! Stop it hurts!"
"John! Wake up! You're dreaming!"
"John! You're safe! No one is going to hurt you!" I exclaimed trying to wake him up again.
He's not waking up.
