Henry smiled.

"Nice to meet you, Jackie." He said.

"Now that we found the kid," Kate cut in. "We should bring him home." She stepped back, dropping the stick.

"Alright!" Henry said, rising up. "Let's go on an adventure home Jackie!"

"Home?" Jackie echoed.

"Yeah, home. Aren't you happy?" Kate thought to herself. She just found a missing kid. There better a reward for this. The two children began to walk, taking the missing corpse with them.

Henry was keeping an eye on Jackie as he hopped puddle to puddle.

"Be careful not to fall Jackie." Kate said. Jackie shook his head and picked a branch up from the ground.

Kate eyed Jackie. "What are you doing?"

Jackie turned to Kate with a little grin on his face. "Let's play a game!" He exclaimed. It seemed like he was learning more and more words by the minute.

"N-nah, I don't think we should." Kate immediately said after. Playing with a child who doesn't seem very mentally stable, wouldn't be such a good idea.

"Aw c'mon, let's try!" Henry was a freak for games. Never have I won against him, and I don't think Jackie stands a chance either.

"Okay fine," Kate said. She looked at Jackie already making his way toward a large tree.

"Peek-a-boo."

"What?" Henry and Kate had said together.

"If I scare chu, I win." With that very sentence he went behind the tree.

"Seems easy enough, I'm no wuss" Henry crossed his arms, smirking confidently to himself. Meanwhile, Kate was panicking. What if they lose him? No prize, she thought to herself. What if they don't leave the forest alive? I least I don't have to worry about Henry anymore! Her mind was running wild with thoughts.

Henry began walking, he wasn't going to let any 4 year old child scare him.

At least...that's what he wanted...
