Trisha Kat's Secret Romace

[Trisha has no idea that Millie and David have broken up]


I miss David and Millie. It’s been almost a year now and not a jump has occurred at all by David, Griffin or me. Why do we need to hide? Why can’t we just live our own lives? God made us this way so why aren’t we allowed to use our powers. Trisha thought while walking back home from her anti social walks to the park. Maybe if I just made one jump back and forth no one will know. The paladins won’t be able to track a quick jump, plus it’s been a year now I’m sure they’ve given up tracking us down. I haven’t heard news from Griffin or David about the paladins, I’m sure it will be fine. Yes it will be fine I mean what’s the worst that could happen just by making one jump. I walked back away from my house towards the crowded morning supermarket. I found a deep ally and walked inside, looked back and quickly jumped.

I found myself in the balcony facing the sea I went in the house finding Millie just getting off the phone.
“Hi Millie”, I said smiling.
Millie got a fright realizing that I had been there for at least two minutes now.
“Trish!?...What are u doing here? When did you get here?” said Millie startled.
“Eerr…uumm I missed you so decided to visit”, I said realizing that maybe jumping here wasn’t a good idea after all.
“After a year Trish you finally decided to visit…Are you sure it’s still safe…I just got off the phone with David by the way”, said Millie.
“Oh I’m sure it’s fine…how is David anyways?” I said concerned.
“He’s fine..he’s probably with his mum right now”, said Millie.
“He’s gone to see his mum!” I said surprised.
“Yeah…apparently she had some news for him”, said Millie.
“Oh ok...It’s really good seeing you after ages…haven’t seen David in a while as well”, I said.
“Yeah..David jumps on and off but he makes sure he doesn’t jump in or out anywhere near home”, said Millie.
“Oh alright..Anyways I better get going…might be dangerous if I stay too long”, I said feeling uncomfortable and regretting that I had jumped.
“Ok..take care Trisha..oh and tell Griffin I said hi”, said Millie smirking.
“Eerr...why u telling me” said Trisha embarrassed.
“Haha...nothing..hopefully I'll see you again”, said Millie smilling.
“Yeah it was nice seeing you Millie..tell David I said hi too”, said Trisha feeling awkward.
I walked back towards the balcony blushing and about to jump, when Millie laughed and said,
“You and Griffin make such an odd couple by the way”
I quickly jumped feeling the wind rushing through my hair and extremely embarrassed.


[Three Days Later]


“I can’t deal with this anymore; I haven’t jumped in a year now, why do we need to hide ourselves? Why can’t we jumpers live our own lives”, said Trisha sitting in the garden on the phone.
“What do u mean, why are you saying this now, three days ago your mind set was absolutely different?” said Griffin.
“I’m just saying, I enjoyed fighting for our jumpers rights, I felt like I belonged somewhere, I was a part of something important”, said Trisha
“What have you done Trish?” said Griffin with a deep tone.
“What?” said Trisha accusing Griffin as if she had done nothing wrong.
“We’ve been doing so well Trish, you had been doing so well”, said Griffin disappointed.
“Look I was missing David and Millie and I dint realise i made a mistake when i had already jumped, I was walking back from the park and I only saw Millie and then I jumped back to my room which was another huge mistake”, said Trisha feeling guilty and stupid for doing such a thing.
“You jumped back to your room! Are you bloody crazy….what was all that talk bout keeping your family save when you have just led them right to your family!?” said Griffin raising his voice.
Trisha went quiet, tears falling down her cheeks, she quickly wiped them not wanting Griffin to know she was crying through the phone.
“This was was what you wanted Trish, you stopped jumping because of the safety for your family, we all went quiet because of the safety of our loved ones, I told you before, to just get your own place or live with me, but you keep refusing every single time”, said Griffin disappointed.
“I’m sorry..but I think they tracked me down...I’m not too sure if I saw a paladin near the park when I got back”, said Trisha worried.
“You know the Paladins have updated their devices, they have an advance and new tracking device, it’s called the Pulverizer 20000”, Griffin said.
“What!? When did this happen?” said Trisha feeling scared.
“Paladins have been planning this ever since we went quiet, they’ve been waiting for any sort of movement that’s how fast the device can track us now”, said Griffin.
“Well why haven’t you told me anything until now? I even met Millie she dint mention a thing to me”, said Trisha bewildered.
“David called yesterday and told me his mum had updated him little by little he’s in Sweden now and I think Roland has an idea where he might be that's why i called you early today i was gonna tell you, but now I’m getting to know you have already made a jumped”, said Griffin.
“I’m sorry Griffin but things just happened at the wrong time and I’ve been so good the past year and suddenly when i decided to jump that's when the paladins have started their hunt again”, said Trisha apologizing.
“Look Trish just start looking for a place to live alright. Your mum obviously won’t want you to be staying here in Ireland and honestly I don’t think she likes me that much as well, she’s probably still surprised how her daughter found such a good looking young lad like me..”, said Griffin cheekily.
“Oh stop it Griffin, why do you always do this”, said Trisha annoyed.
“What??....You don’t think I’m good looking”, said Griffin acting surprised.
“Yeah yeah, my baby is so good looking with his cute Irish accent that just drives me crazy….now can we concentrate on where I’m gonna live now and not how good looking you are…every time I tell you… every time you talk bout how extremely good looking you are”, said Trisha.
“I’m only saying the truth, don’t be jealous just caz your not good looking as me”, said Griffin enjoying the conversation“
“Oh my god”, cried Trisha.
“Just please help me..I wanna be a part of this if the paladins are deciding to attack again”, said Trish concerned.
“I know and your good with your powers..you really know how to control them..but I won’t be able to help anymore..”, said Griffin disappointed.
“I know and I understand…but tell David to arrange time for me to meet up with him today..I need to talk to him..oh and Millie knows about us”, said Trisha.
“Oh shyte..are u kiddin..David is gonna take the kicks out of me when I call him later”, said Griffin annoyed.
“Just please don’t tell him I call u baby..I know he's gonna ask you questions when you meet him later”, said Griffin.



(And for the cast of Trisha Kat, I have decided it to be the italian actress Penelope Cruz, she was the only young italian I could think of accept for Monica Belluci whom was a bit too old)

Roland in Sweden

I am now officially the leader of all Paladins of the world. Roland the great! How I long to get my two hands on that little twat – David Rice. I am in and out of the tower and I recently got a message from the there that David is in Sweden? What in the world is he doing in Sweden? Is that his new hiding spot? Because, it’s not working…mwahahaha! How stupid can he get? He can run but he can’t hide.


Now I have to fly to Sweden and I must remember to take my trusty Pulverizer 2000 with me. Last time I saw him, I tried the Pulverizer on him but the Pulverizer was faulty – which then caused him to teleport. Furious at the so called new and improved instrument, I returned to the tower to get it fixed.

Anyways, I must pack my bags immediately-on second thought maybe not. I’ll just leave without returning home for anything, this will be a surprise visit for David. I can’t wait to see the look on his face when he finds out that I’m in the same country as he is.

Fourteen hours long of non- stop flight and my butt is numb; I can barely tell that I have one. It’s about freakin’ time I got out of that aeroplane! How can they do that? This plane must have a large tank to carry so much petrol to get here. And the search for David begins – but, maybe I’ll wait for the next day when the markets are on and maybe then I could by some black hair dye to disguise myself, I’m standing out a bit too much so I’ll just look for a good motel that won’t blow my cover.

What uncomfortable beds they have! It’s better than nothing but this will help me get up and running before he, (David) knows it. I want to see how the Pulverizer goes. I tried it on a random person who is not a Jumper last time I was in Japan and it almost killed him, so that was a good result. Now I want to see how it’ll destroy the leader of Jumpers once and for all. I am way over excited about this, I can’t wait! But I must be patient – that’s my trick. To make David think that I have lost track of him and then pounce on him like a cat and mouse game. How I love to picture my plans in my mind, just hope that it all works out. For now, it’s time to rest for energy. I lay down on my hard rock bed, thinking of the past and how it has been so busy that I haven’t had a proper rest. How I can’t have a family because it’ll be too dangerous for them and I don’t want them to be moving around because of me and the job that I have. I just noticed that I have an upside and a downside to my job. But I love the upside. The downside won’t be as bad just as long as I don’t dwell on it too much.

(The very next day…)

The markets are on, I wonder if they even sell dye so I can go in disguise, I stand out so much that my hair is not an everyday colour that I see around here. I have to also get the traditional everyday clothing they wear, or maybe I’ll just buy some used clothing off a trader in the markets so I can blend in well. This will be fun. The tower just informed me about David and his whereabouts; he’s staying with a head chef of a restaurant and works for him as a supervisor to the other chefs. What a good disguise, I wonder if the owner of the restaurant knows whether or not he knows that David is a jumper, whether the owner of the restaurant knows what he’s going to get into much more trouble that David is going to get into.

The Hills, I have to look for the Hills. I’m in the middle of nowhere in Sweden’s town. I don’t even speak Swiss! How am I going to get around? This is frustrating. If only I had a gift of being able to speak foreign language in whatever country I may be in. The tower! Yes! The tower. I’ll contact the tower to find a Paladin. There are Paladins all over the world just in case the Jumpers may turn up out of nowhere (which they are good at) and destroy them – if they can. I don’t think the Pulverizer 2000 has even reached this country. I know for sure that it exists in Australia, Germany, France, India and a couple more, but now Sweden. This will be interesting. That’s my next task. To introduce to them what the Pulverizer 2000 does and its functions. I have to show them the wonderful gold plaited wires that come flying out in the touch of a button, the wires that captures the Jumpers and paralyzes them fully and not allowing them to teleport.

Yes! They found one. His name is Henri. Okay, that's easy. Now where does he live? Brauerewieg Street. Okay, I think I’ll write this down and catch a cab to get there.
Brauereiweg Steet? I ask the driver and he gives a nod as he accelerates. If only I knew this place well, I would have hijacked a car by now and looking for this Henri myself. How am I going to pay for this cab? I’ll give him a taste of the Pulverizer 2000 – maybe not, that’s too cruel. I’ll just ask Henri to pay for it. We’re on the street now, I have to look for number sixty six. Wow! He has a mansion in the middle of nowhere. The houses around here are don’t even look half as big as Henri’s. We’re at the front gate and I don’t even know how his intercom works. The drivers got it. Good, I can’t wait to meet this Henri man.

As I enter the mansion of his he starts to explain where the mountains that David could be going for daily meditations. So, if Henri knows where Henri is, why doesn’t he capture him (David) himself? But then again they weren’t introduced to the Pulverizer yet, so I can’t blame him after all. The way that Henri explains the mountains is so complicated that this is going to be a mission.

After our long talk, I asked him if he could lend me some clothing that could disguise me and help me to blend in with the rest of the street people, because they seem to be turning their heads every time I pass by. Henri leads me to a room the size of my apartment and lays out clothes before me on the large king sized bed, hands me some dye and a towel then points out the door to the bedroom ensuite and leaves the room silently and closes the door behind him. This is fantastic. I can now blend in with the other streets people. Now I really can’t wait to see the look on David’s face.

David Rice - This is only just the real beginning

Standing here looking over the mountains in the middle of Sweden, I wonder, did my life honestly come to this? Hiding away and leaving the one person I truly cared about just to protect them against any harm. My ability to teleport anywhere still haunts me. It’s caused me nothing but grief and complications since I made my first teleportation. And I would give absolutely anything to make it go away, but then I think about the other Jumpers that have been captured and killed by the Paladins. I owed it to them and the rest of us to defeat the evil force that is the Paladins, even if it meant risking my own life just to make sure other Jumpers don’t suffer the way I have. But then again the other Jumpers didn’t have a mother as part of the Paladins. At the start it was a disadvantage having my mother as the enemy but as time went on I realised it was an advantage. After Rome, I became more confident about me and my mother’s relationship. It took an extra effort to put the past behind us, but I knew she was there for me and loved me.

Things had become a lot more difficult since the Paladins had established a new base at their new towers. It was like they knew every Jumpers move, not to mention mine especially. What made it worse was the fact that their corporation seemed to be growing, recruiting more like minded people and that was no consolation. The more Paladins there were the harder it was getting to survive, not too mention the invention of the Palvarizer. Sometimes I wondered if it was even worth fighting against them, but I knew it had to be done. Someone had to stand up to those people. And that’s what I’m going to do.

The cold wind hit me in the face hard, it was almost as if it was reminding me of how hard it had been to let Millie go. I couldn’t risk her getting caught in between this war that was going on, and knowing Roland, Millie would have been his first target if he was trying to get me. And that was not something I was willing to let happen, needless to say I had to let go of Millie. That was probably the hardest decision I’ve had to make in my life. I could still remember the way her face crumbled when I tried explaining myself. She didn’t even want to see me these days which I guess was understandable, it was for the best though. There was no telling what Roland is capable of, that man far more ruthless now that he had the Palvarizer. It was as if that silver stick contained all the power he needed to destroy us Jumpers, and he was doing a pretty good job at it too.

My last encounter with him left me more than just bruised and battered. The day I got to experience that “magic” stick of his, was the day I found a new meaning to the term dangerous electric volts. It felt like every electric current ripped into every muscle I had in my body paralysing me from any attempt of running away or Jumping. I had honestly thought that he had got me and that was the end for me. That is until the Palvarizer started faulting, turns out that was the first time it was being used on a real Jumper. Didn’t surprise me that I was Roland’s first choice for a test dummy, I should consider myself lucky though otherwise if it had worked to its full potential I would be dead by now. To Roland’s disappointment, after a couple of minutes of him fussing over the faulty Palvarizer, I gathered some strength and managed to Jump away from the situation. It was that one first encounter with the Palvarizer that made me determined to make sure no other Jumper had to go through such pain like that, but I was afraid that since then, the Palvarizer may have been developed to its full potential and was ready to be used at its fullest. They had to be stopped.

I had nothing to lose anymore and I was going to make damn sure that Roland and his kind had everything to lose. This was only just going to be the beginning. My fists clenched involuntarily. It was only the beginning.

Feedback to Erica's comment on my Fanfic

Hi Erica (and everybody),

Thanks for your comment; I'm glad my fanfic didn't bore you to death. I reckon the film company should really consider making a sequel of Jumper. I also have some suggestion of the casts for it, our leading guy David Rice played by Hayden Christensen will definitely stay, he’s too hot to miss (don’t you agree? hehe ;p;p;p). The new Japanese girl Jumper will be most suitably played by Zhang Ziyi (the pretty girl in your fanfic photo); Ms Zhang has starred in so many action films like her first big break “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” then she was kicking Jackie Chan’s ass in “Rush Hour 2” and she proved to the world of her amazing kung fu skills in the movie “House of the Flying Daggers” so I’m certain that she will be like a fish in water with all the exciting action packed fighting scenes that we’ve seen in the first Jumper film. Then we need to introduce another new male Jumper in the sequel to replace Griffin, so which young upcoming Hollywood actor will fit the bill? I have an idea, the guy from the movie “Transformers”, Shia LaBeouf, he has the same charisma like Jamie Bell so I think he will be capable to add some new sparks in the sequel. Who should play the part of our Italian girl Jumper, Trisha Kat? Any suggestions guys?
Another crazy idea that I have for the big fighting scene in the Jumper sequel – the ultimate battle between Roland and the Jumpers starting from the brand new ‘Water Cube’, the National Aquatics Centre of China in Beijing!!! The scene starts with the Paladins has been able to track our main guy, David, down who is watching the Olympics live by ‘jumping’ from the States to Beijing and Roland is there with the Pulverizer 2000 attempting to capture David. And to the Paladins’ surprise, all our other Jumpers have already arranged to meet David at the ‘Water Cube’ to experience the spirit of the Olympics. So the Paladins and the Jumpers get into a battle and eventually they all teleported themselves across to the ‘Bird’s Nest’, the National Stadium, for the climax of the movie!!!
What do you guys think?

Alby ^_^

My son, David, the Jumper

Just when I thought my ultimate dream has finally become reality, Jumpers and we, Paladins, are not rivals anymore, I was informed by the Tower of Roland’s encounter with my son, David, at a market place somewhere in Japan...

What was David doing there all the way across the world in Japan? Was he also trying to locate the new Jumper there? I can only occupy my head with all kinds of questions instead of showing my concern for my son while I am here in the Paladins sparkling new headquarter, The Tower. For the past two years, we Paladins have grown so vast both in our technology and number of members. And more and more wealthy businessmen are interested in investing in our organisation so they are pouring in phenomenal multi millions amount of money for the Paladins to research and develop on new advanced devices to capture more Jumpers. Their only selfish intention is so obvious for me to see, they want to posses the ability to jump or in Jumpers’ term, to teleport from one place to another instantly.

To Roland’s pride and joy, he and the team here in The Tower have created the Pulverizer 2000. Although the Pulverizer 2000 looks nothing more like a silver stick to ordinary people, it is actually equipped with two extracting ropes which can paralysed a Jumper with high voltage of electric shock from both end of the ‘stick’. Heaven forbid that Roland had the opportunity to test his new toy on my son David. As for the new Jumper, the only relevant information that we know is that she is a young Japanese girl in her 20’s and she has not really jumped as much as the other Jumpers have. For this reason, the Paladins are simply keeping an eye on her at the moment and let her enjoy her hidden power for a little bit longer and then we will definitely prance on her like the big fat cat in a ‘Cat and Mouse’ game.

Doesn’t fate enjoy playing irony games on people? For I can recall from my earliest memory, my father, David’s grandfather, was the leader of the Paladins back in the days. He used to come home after a long hard day at the office and boost to my brother and I about the good deeds that the Paladins were doing for human kind. As an innocent daddy’s girl that I was, my father was the greatest saviour to the world in my eyes and becoming a Paladin was like the number one goal in my life back then. I knew nothing about all the terrifying and inhumane tortures that my father and the other Paladins used when they were capturing or interrogating the Jumpers. I was so naive that in my mind I believed that they were like preachers at our church; they only talked to them patiently and guide them into the light of God; it never occurred to me that there was so much more to it...

At the tender age of eighteen and with my father’s help, I was recruited as a research assistant in the Paladins’ library. I was ecstatic to have landed such position with the Paladins, my idealistic world-saving organisation. The Paladins emphasised very much on their members’ formal education so I was also offered a scholarship to attend college. Soon after I graduated college, I started officially working for the Paladins. And of course, for the first few years I was only appointed to research on incidents of Jumpers teleporting themselves around the world, but none of the naked truth was exposed to this young girl at this early stage. With my fully committed effort and my father’s influence within the organisation, I was offered the position to be the department head of researches. And to show my commitment and loyalty to the Paladins, I had to sign an agreement that I would never leave the organisation till the day I depart this world. I was so consumed by the thought of being successful in the organisation and with no second thought I signed it. I was only twenty-four years old and I was the youngest department head ever in the history of the Paladins. My father and my family were so proud of me and needless to say that I was feeling the same about myself too!

David’s father, William Rice, and I met in the first year at college. He was not doing particularly well with his studies so he dropped out at the start of the second year and worked as an apprentice at his father’s car workshop. Although William and I were like chalk and cheese in other people’s eyes, we did have an unexplainable attraction towards each other. We had to keep our boyfriend and girlfriend relationship underground especially with my father for he saw William as a burden to my aspiring career with the Paladins upon my graduation from college. Nevertheless, the love between William and I stood the test of time and criticisms from other people. And by the time I turned twenty-four and firmly secured my position, department head of researches, William and I decided to start our own family! This decision was not the only surprise to my father and everybody, though they attempted every way to hinder us but it was all too late, I was pregnant with William’s child! My father was devastated when I broke the news to everyone because he was concerned about how William was going to support our new family. I assured him that with a love as strong as mine and William’s, we could overcome any hardship thrown in our paths.

William and I got married and as a wedding gift, my father had bought us a small but cosy townhouse which I am still appreciative and grateful today. And when next spring arrived, so did our son, David! He was the most gorgeous baby that I had ever laid eyes on and I just wanted to cuddle him all day. By now, William had inherited his father’s car workshop and I was juggling my life being the department head of researches at Paladins and the loving mother to my son, David. Our new family life was going so smoothly that in the back of my mind I knew that something terrible would go very wrong at some stage. My worst nightmare had realised when David turned five and that was the very first time that he ‘jumped’ as a Jumper to the top of the Empire State building in New York!

What was a mother to do? I had been with the Paladins for long enough to fully comprehend the ‘naked truth’ about our organisation and how the Jumpers were being tortured when they were captured. And with the loyalty agreement that I signed, was I to apprehend my own son and hand him over to the Paladins? Even if I keep this as a secret to the organisation, sooner or later they would be able to detect the teleporting that David did; they would hunt him down like a pack of wolves. I had to make the most difficult and heart breaking decision that a mother could imagine. I had to leave my loving husband and my vulnerable five-year-old boy in order to save their lives. I applied to be transferred to work at the Paladins headquarter in New York and the reason was that my marriage was breaking down and my husband was a useless drunk and was abusive towards me. I would never forgive myself for telling such horrible lies about William, my ever trusting and supporting soul mate and husband but I had no choice. And I knew that David would never forgive his mother for abandoning him and his father, I was torn apart...

David, can you still remember the first conversation that we had in Rome after you were captured?

“So you’re a Paladin and I ‘m a Jumper. What happens now?”

“I’m giving you a head start, son. Because I love you.”

I will always love you, son.

Mary Rice, mum

Jumper in Japan

There she sat wrapped in a shimmering white kimono on her white wedding dress, thinking this will be the last day of her freedom. Tazuko Komji sits sincerely while her friends and family watches her from out the window. No one knows her deep secret, a secret she’s force to hide from her future husband, a well off property investor. In a few minutes she will leave her parent’s house to her new bird nest that will become her prison cell for the rest of her live. Her thoughts began to wonder far away from the wedding to the day she saw two men fighting before her in the market. How strange it was to see a white man being brutally beaten up by a black man with white hair.
He held a strange stick hitting the bleeding face of the white man. She felt guilty from that day on that she was frightened to help the man lying useless on the ground. She hid quietly behind the fruit basket hoping no one could see her, when tears flow coldly down her face. That’s when it happened. The air went heavy and the grounds shake like an earth quake. Tazuko only had one option even if it means risking the one thing that she hid from the world.
“ help me”, the man scream.
“LET HIM GO”, the deep voice made the air reverberated. A strange shadow of a man walked towards them holding noting but his bag. Bloody Foolish man, what is he going to do she thought.
“It me you want Roland” he said with a cheeky smile on his face.
“Well it’s good to see you too”, he rubs the sweat off his forehead and took one step forward. Not even thinking of having a second look at his victim completely exhausted and wounded from the electric shock lying on the ground.
“It’s been…too long David”
David interrupts. “Well not really, having those pictures of you staring back at me in my room, it feels like we never lost touch at all.”
“Ahaha I see you haven’t lost touch of your humor too, well you’re going to need it after I kill you.”
Tazuko thought she was the only one, until she saw David teleport behind Roland but he was too slow for him. Roland quickly turns around and clicks his strange stick in front of David’s chest that released two electric ropes from both end of the stick wrapping David like a snake on a stick. Tazuko covered her mouth so that no can hear her screaming inside. David’s tears were blood and he couldn’t move muscle anymore. Roland thought it was an easy catch for him.
“You fell right on my trap boy”, Roland grabbed his Mobile, and just as he was about to dial he sense that someone was watching.
He could hear heavy breathing coming behind the fruit basket. He quietly walks towards it and recklessly pushes the baskets away. Tazuko quickly without hesitation ran but her speed didn’t match Roland wires. It grabbed her from her waist, pulling her back and fell bumping her head. She lies unconsciously on the ground. Roland walked up to her and saw she was still alive. Another man runs towards Roland.
“Sir what do you want us to do with them?”
“I want them both alive and make sure no one touches them… got that.”
“Yes sir… but what about the lady.” Roland stares down from the corner of his eyes.
“Leave her she just a witness; no one will believe her when she wakes up”
“But sir…”
“GO NOW!”
Roland and his companion disappeared into thin air before Tazuko woke up. She knew no one will believe her if she told. So she ran from the corner of the busy street where no one can see her and teleported to her home.

Since then Tazuko mind kept taking her back to that very day always wondering who David was and if there’s more out there just like her and David and who was Roland, what did he want? All that thought played on her mind like a tape recorder even when she was asleep.
“Are you already pumpkin?” a familiar voice interrupts her thought, wiping everything out off her thoughts leaving nothing but the anxious feeling.

Follow-up: Jumpers...

We have laid low for two years now, hoping that the Paladins can't get a hold of us. So far, everything is running smoothly according to plan. Griffin has given up being a Jumper and has returned to his family at Ireland. He's trying to live a normal care free life. No worrying and no running away. This time he's taking plane rides to Ireland and to where ever he wants to go. Anyways, Mom (who happens to be a Paladin) said that they have created a new tracking device to catch the Jumpers, including me. I haven't heard from the Paladins either. They're probably laying low as well.

Trisha Kat is doing fine as usual. I hardly hear from her, unless she's in danger of some sort and as for me, I'm in Japan hiding out in the markets, but I'm hoping no one knows that.

We have recruited another Jumper. A new member to the team. She's not so comfortable letting other people know who she is at the moment. She's an awesome girl. She is always eager to learn new things, especially about jumping from one place to another. Now I have to teach her how to defend herself, how to get away from the Paladins. She doesn't know much about them but she does know who they are.

For now, Mom is keeping me up to date with what they're doing and us, Jumpers - are trying to stay far away from the Paladins. I'll probably teach our newest team member how to get rid of the Paladins...except mom. She can take over Griffin's place.
