"Wake up Jack! Wake up!" Claire kept shaking Jack until he woke up. "Hmm?... Is it morning already?" Jack slowly opened his eyes only to see Claire staring at him. "Yup! It's morning, so you have to get up because we're going on a mountain hike!" Claire snatched Jack's blanket and tossed it on the other side of the bed. "O...K," Jack sat down trying to get his blanket back. "I'll wait for you outside, you can take a bath back in the treehouse 'cause I already did and I cooked bacon for our breakfast too. I'll give you about...Hmm.... 1 hour to do all that! So you better be quick," Claire got up and exited the tent living Jack shocked about the time limit. 1 hour?! I can't do that! Is she crazy? It's not like I'm a vampire to do that! Anyways looks like I don't have any choice, I better get started. Jack stood up and started fixing his bed as fast as he can.

•After 45 minutes•

Jack ran beside Claire and said, "I'm here," "wow! I didn't expect you to be this quick," Claire got shocked of how fast Jack is. "I know! Even I didn't know I was that fast. It was like an adrenaline rush that came out of me. I just started running fast and acting really quick!" Jack explained "well then, let's get going," Claire handed the bag to Jack, "ok!" Jack happily followed Claire along the trail.

•From a Distance•

Two persons wearing dark colored clothes watched Jack and Claire up in the mountain side. "Is this it?" the man wearing black asked, "I hope not, his too young and it's his first time having a friend," the girl answered in a worried tone.

Little did Claire and Jack know that the persons watching them was Jack's parents Jane and Mike.

The question is, 'what are they worried about?', 'is there something about Jack we didn't know?'.

•Back on Jack and Claire's Hike•

  "Come on Jack, we're almost there," Claire kept cheering Jack on the way up

"Come on Jack, we're almost there," Claire kept cheering Jack on the way up. "Huh? Ok, but are we there yet?" Jack stopped for awhile to catch his breath, "hmm... A little more and we're there," Claire stopped beside Jack. "How long?! You've been saying this for about an hour now!" Jack exclaimed, "easy tiger, it will just take a little longer. About 20 more minutes," Claire smiled. "Hmm.... Ok," Jack kept frowning while the two of them were walking.

"Ahh.... What a lovely view up here. Worth it, isn't it Jack?" Claire looked at Jack, "it is, I should've been more patient," Jack looked down. "Hehe, that's alright. You are a first timer after all," Claire patted Jack's shoulder, "hmmm.... I guess you're right," Jack smiled. "Let's go stay here a little longer," Claire sat down "sure," Jack sat beside her.

It took awhile for the two of them to notice that it's getting late because they're both too busy admiring the view.

•After an hour•

"Oh yeah Jack I just remembered something!" Claire suddenly stood up "what? What is it?" Jack looked at her. "We're suppose to have a boat ride this evening," Claire picked up her bag, "oh, is that so? Then we better go down and catch that boat!" Jack excitedly stood up and immediately carried his backpack. He started to drag Claire down the mountain as they both laugh.
