Older Jokers POV

Hacchi and I just came back from a successful heist. "Ah. Now that was a lovely and easy heist. Right Hacchi?" I asked. Hacchi nodded. "Anyways Mr. Joker.. I will be visiting my parents tomorrow and they wanted you to come too!" He said. I smiled at my apprentice. "Sorry Hacchi, I have to pass. Me and Yawning Jerk has a competition and I cannot miss it." He said. Hacchi nodded. "Okay Mr. Joker here is some Curry." He said. My eyes lit up. "Your the best Hacchi!" I said.

The next day...

I dropped off Hacchi at his place and I drove the Sky Joker towards ny next destination.

I waited for the Yawning Jerk and when he finally came, I smiled. "Hey yawning Jerk. Time for our game!" I said. Phoenix landed with that Psuedo cat. Eww. Why is that cat there? (You have an issue with the cat?)

"Hey Joker. Where is Hacchi?" He asked.

"Hacchi went to visit his parents.." I said.

"What about you? Did you visit your parents?" He asked. I smiled despite not telling most of my friend what happened to his parents. So I just smiled. "Um.. Well I would love to visit them... but they are unreachable.." I said. Phoenix stared sadly. "Oh so they must be far away. Okay lets get to our game!" He said...

2 Days later...

Spade called me earlier and apparently wants us to compete in stealing this Traveling Crystal... and of course I agreed. Hacchi hasnt come back today so I was eager to get out of bed for once. I was early so I took the chance to steal it first. I mean its Spades fault for being late... anyways.. At night however, Spade decided to call me while I was sleeping. He yabbered about this and that. Saying its unfair of me to come early to the place where I stole the Traveling Crystal when something he said caught my attention.

 "I was supposed to study it Joker!" Nope.. thats not what caught my attention. That was all the boringness of what Spade said. "That gem can travel through time only once a century and I wanted to know how. Apparently the opening of that Crystal was this Friday so I wanted to learn things about it. Now my chances are-" yah yah Spade i get it. Stop yabbering about equality of time and stuff. I said to myself.

I guess I earned my ticket to meet my parents.

Present Time and Day...

Hacchi POV

Hah.. Finally Im back at the Sky Joker. I wonder how master is doing. "Mr. Joker! Where are you? Im back!" I said. I figured he'd be down at his little gamers cave. I put down the fruits and veggies my mom told me to bring back and I walked around and saw that Mr. Jokers room was a mess. I mean thats natural of Mr. Joker but... its a little... to clean... For Mr. Joker... I wonder whats going on? I turned around too see a large pile of clothes. I carefully took the clothes out. But suddenly the pile started moving.

Like what kind of thing is hiding here? Im terrified!! I carefully lift up the blanket and apparently, there was a little boy in overalls with silver hair. Munching on some cookies I made for Mr. Joker. The kid stood up and smiled. "Im Jack. Jack Jones. Have you seen my mom and dad?" He said.
