Summary - Can Tru turn Jack to her side?

---------------------------------------
Jack finally found the key!

The key to unlocking this crazy spiral he and Tru are constantly finding themselves within

Richard Davies, his predecessor and mentor, thought he had Jack whipped, he thought Jack was completely brainwashed to his side

But that wasn't the case. Oh it may have been for a little while, but time away from all the hoopla of locking horns with Tru on rewind days, and time away from Richard himself helped clear his head

He was camping out in the Ozark mountains, having disappeared for three months. He ditched his cell phone and used the little bit of savings he accumulated while he actually had a job to hide out for a while and do some research on his past predecessors.... and Tru's

He spoke with an Oracle, the one that's in charge of all of this. It turns out, each person chooses a side, not like Richard had told him. The whole "making sure fate stays as it should" was bogus.

Those with the ability to rewind days CAN choose to help those that died unnatural deaths. Which means he can choose

He thought it was too late, since he's been Tru's nemesis for over a year now. And the ritual that has to be done to stop his part of the equation, to stop rewinding as Tru's opposite, is to first join her

Physically

If he has sex with his counterpart, in this case, Tru Davies, he can then join her in her quest to save the unnaturally dead.

Although that would mean there will be TWO on the opposite side to rise against them, according to the Oracle.

Now to convince Tru of what he found. She will probably think it's another ploy to mess with her head.

When he studied on Tru's parents, who have obviously had sex (they were MARRIED for goodness sake), she turned to her husband's side. The problem is that her conscience was wracked with guilt and that is why she CHOSE to be killed like her rewind showed her would happen. She knew her husband wanted to be the ultimate power on the side for fate and didn't want a partner. And the constantly allowing people to continue to stay dead finally drove Tru's mother out of her mind.

She had made sure Tru was in the room..... so the calling would go to her when the time came.

And she was killed

So that Tru could save

Well Jack was just as tired of "keeping fate as it should be" according to Richard.

Now he has a purpose, but he needs Tru's help

Would she do it? Can he convince her that this isn't just an idea to get into her pants?

All he can do is try!

-----------------------------------------------------

Tru was shocked. She doesn't get rattled easily but THIS was the shocker of all shockers and she was speechless

How could Jack EVER imagine that she would.....

Oh HELL NO!!

Those exact words came from her brother Harrison, who was at Tru's apartment and inadvertently witnessed the proclamation made by Jack to Tru when he returned from the bathroom.

"No WAY are you f*cking my sister, man! You can just get your creepy self outta here before this foot kicks your ass!!"

"Harry!" Tru stepped between her brother and nemesis. There was absolute murder in her brother's eyes. He hated Jack. There was one time he actually looked up to the guy as a kind of older brother figure, but not anymore

Now Harrison just thought of him as scum. Tru was just too nice, especially allowing him to walk into her apartment and announce this outrageous scheme!

"C'mon Tru! He's using a line on you! Let me get rid of him for you!" Harrison tried to sidestep Tru to get to Jack. Jack stepped back with his hands raised and Tru blocked Harry again

"Hair.... I'M the big sister, remember? I can take care of myself. And YOU have a job to get to anyway."

"I'll call in sick." Harrison announced, still dying to get to the older man and get his hands around his throat

"Not again Hair.... you call in again and you'll be fired. You know I can handle Jack, I've done it many times, but we DO need to clear the air."

Jack told Harrison, "I am not planning on doing this right away, for now I just want to talk to her. Explain my side. That's all."

Harrison sauntered over to Jack, Harrison was a slight bit taller, but skinnier than Jack and he gave him his most imposing stare

"I EVER hear of you messing around with my sister and you're toast. I know a lot of people that can put a world of hurt on you."

Tru was getting tired of the male posturing, "Harrison! Stop it! Just.... go! I'll call you if I need you."

Harrison slowly turned back to Tru and pointed at her, "You do that." and with one last warning look to Jack, he left.

Once Harrison left, Jack had to ask, "Why didn't you keep him around for protection Tru? That would have been the smart thing to do."

"Because something about what you said held merit. I was remembering my parents and..... well, just tell me what you know and we'll go from there."

-------------------------------------
"So you see, it's a ritual to pull me from the other side. If I still relive days, I can then choose to work on your side. All the death I caused..... it's like I've finally come out of a bad dream."

"But actually, that can go either way. From what I've gathered about my parents and your research, it could pull me to your side instead."

"It goes by who has the stronger will.... I WANT to give this up Tru, and if you also want me to stop, then please help me. I don't know anyone else that does what you do or else I wouldn't ask for a favor so huge."

Tru looked over Jack objectively. There was a time she was actually attracted to him. He was a good eight years older than her and he's been rewinding days for a year longer than her.

She found out quite recently about her dad, around the time Jack disappeared. And therefore, she and Harrison have nothing to do with him anymore, even if he is "retired" from the death business

Jack saw a spark of interest in Tru's eyes before she lowered her eyes to her lap, hiding what she was thinking

"Tru..." Jack scooted closer to her on the couch they were sitting on, and he took her hand, getting her attention. "I don't want to pressure you into ANYTHING. I can stay in my hidey-hole until you decide. It's been pretty nice getting back to nature."

Jack's hesitant smile caused Tru to smile in return

She couldn't believe that she was actually considering this!! Harrison would kill her!!

After killing Jack that is!

---------------------------------
Jack and Tru sat together on her couch, looking through the old book the Oracle had given Jack on the history of those chosen to repeat days to either save people, or those that make sure dead people stay dead

It did state there was always an exact counterpart. If one side is female, the male works from the other side. So the only way to join the two was through the physical act of tantric sex

Tru was confused, "Tantric sex? How exactly is that any different than just getting down and doing it?"

Jack placed a hand over his heart playfully, "Oh how romantic of you! I don't know HOW I'm going to keep my hands off you you dirty talker!"

Tru dryly replied "Ha ha! You know what I mean Jack. I've heard of tantric sex but what is it really?"

Jack shrugged, "May as well call it making love. I know it's the joining of bodies as well as spirits. Orgasm is not the ultimate goal. What I say to that is blah, blah, blah.... tell ya what! Research it for us and get back to me."

"Oh no you don't! If you want to join my side, you'll help me on the research."

"Fine I will. And you need to read the fine print in that book too. It only works if done on a rewind day."

"And we never know when that is!"

"Which means we get together daily until a rewind day happens."

"Geez Jack! I have a life you know! And now I'm supposed to make time to f*ck??"

Jack shook his head in amusement, "And you expect me to kiss that dirty mouth? Shame on you Tru!"

"Well here it is again Jack. F*ck you!"

"Not necessary Tru. Hopefully that will be YOU doing it with ME. Now, I'm off to the library to do some research, I'm sure Davis has you working the day shift today, so off you go and I'll see you later tonight."

------------------------------
Tru confided in Davis and he was floored!

As a matter of fact, he was speechless!

And he was blushing

"Um.... Tru, you can't trust Jack. Think of your history together, think of how many people he killed in many different ways in order to keep them dead. Think of Luc!!"

Poor beautiful Luc! He was Tru's boyfriend and Jack had set him up. Luc took a bullet during one of Tru's rewinds and she was unable to save him. It truly broke her heart

He never asked for her help like others have

Losing him was hard, and she was incredibly angry at Jack back then. And she told him so in very colorful terms.

"I don't know Davis. He seems different. I think he really wants to turn."

"I think there's OTHER reasons he's throwing this propaganda on you Tru!"

"But look at this book Davis! Read it! And if you have time, could you make sure it's legit? I mean, I don't know who to talk to and who to check with, but I'm sure you do."

He nodded, "You know I'd do anything for you Tru."

She gave Davis a pat on the arm as she walked by him and said, "Thanks Davis. And I'll stay out of Jack's pants until you let me know your findings...... as long as it's within the next two weeks."

She rather enjoyed the red on Davis's face, "Why two weeks?"

"It's when I ovulate and that is supposed to be when it's most potent. He better wear a freakin' condom too!"

[Chlollie]

Thanks. Looking good.

[There Is No Spoon]

Trina, are you going to post the first two parts of this story here?

[Dana0715]

The first THREE parts are together above.... or am I missing something?

[lauraforever]

I love it! Thanks for letting me know!

[Dana0715]

Davis, with Tru's permission, scanned a copy of the book into his computer so that he could research it and Tru could take the hard copy home.

Something just wasn't right. He worked with Jack for a few months while he interned at the morgue with Tru. Jack, in Davis's opinion, seemed almost like a sociopath, someone without a conscience. He could mimic certain feelings but never really experience them.

Davis believed that once again, Tru was being played by Jack, or maybe someone was pulling Jack's strings. Tru had a belief that anyone can change, given the right motivation. And Jack was playing on that, in Davis's opinion.

So he was going to research every little fine print on this manuscript for the next two weeks. Sleep will have to wait. He'll have plenty of time to sleep when all of this is over. For now he'll live on coffee and lattes, and will work like crazy. This is for Tru! She's been a good friend to him as well as a inquisitive employee, learning all she can so she can later go into the medical field herself.

-----------------------------------------
(two weeks later)

Harrison just finished winning a late night poker game and he was counting his money as he was leaving the bar he played at.

The night couldn't get much better than this!

He pocketed his money, and walked to his van, noticing the parking ticket on the windshield.

Damn! He picked up the ticket and it's for 150.00 for letting the meter expire where he parked.

This is his third offense so they'll really throw the book at him now! Who has the time to leave the poker table to pay the meter??

"Busted again huh?" a familiar voice said behind him. Harrison clenched his jaw and turned in the direction of the voice

"Jack, what brings you out here? Oh! Wait! I'm supposed to die in this alley and you're going to make sure it happens right? Well, that's what's so great about having a sister that won't let it happen."

"Actually.....no. That's not why I'm here at all. It turns out on further reading, I'm going to need your assistance."

"Assistance on nailing my sister? I don't think so, I'll see you in hell before that ever happens."

"I think that can be arranged Harrison."

Jack withdrew a needle and plunged it into Harrison's neck, pushing the plunger of liquid into Harrison's body. Harrison had just enough strength to push Jack away and hold his neck. It felt like he had been stung by a bee sting

"What the HELL Jack??" He began to get dizzy and pointed at him, looking like a drunk man with the way he was swaying, "What'd you do to me you b@stard!"

"You'll find out soon enough 'little brother'." And Jack watched Harrison fall to the asphalt. Jack tossed the needle and empty vial into a nearby trash can, then picked Harrison up in a fireman's carry kind of hold, taking him to Jack's car, where he deposited Harrison in the back seat, then drove off to his apartment.

---------------------------------------
Tonight was the night that Tru was coming to Jack's place for the first night of their "experiment". Jack had Harrison tied and bound in a trunk in his closet.

As Jack was lighting candles around the apartment, tidying up the mess a bachelor will have in his living quarters, Richard arrived and asked without preamble, "Did you harm him?"

Jack was really beginning to hate this man! "Your precious baby boy? No, he's out cold right now. And WHY does he have to be nearby while Tru and I are...?? Well, TOGETHER."

"Someone has to take over after we successfully pull Tru to our side...... I'd like to keep it in the family. If Harrison is in the room, Tru's gift will move to him."

"So a screw up like Harrison will try to save people instead?"

"I love my son, but I know his weaknesses. He'll pay more attention to lottery numbers and horse races than actually saving people. It should make your job a whole lot easier, and Tru will be out of commission. Because if she doesn't allow the people to die after being 'brought over', she'll just rewind the whole damn day again, over and over, kinda like that movie 'Groundhog Day'. You ever see that?"

"You knew I wanted out Richard...."

"Yeah, and I now know your achilles heel. You're in love with my daughter aren't you?"

"I don't love Richard......hurts too much in my line of business."

"But you do care for her. You know that I myself will kill her to get her out of the business, you know I had every intention of doing so, but this is even better. Bring her to our side. You only agreed to this last week so I won't put out a contract for Tru's death. See? I know you better than you know yourself. Bring her over..... or she's dead. Your choice."

Jack was shaking his head, "She's your DAUGHTER! What father would willingly kill his own child??"

"One that's tired of fighting this same fight..... I went through it with my own wife and now I'm going through it with my daughter. Get it done Jack! I'll be watching!"

Jack stopped Richard's progress out the door by placing an arm across the threshold and meeting his eyes, "If I ever find a way to get Tru and me out of this, I'll make sure you pay for what you've put all of us through."

"To keep Tru alive.... you really don't have a choice Jack. Good day!" and he moved Jack's arm and left.

Richard had Jack by the balls.... and Jack knew it.

[lauraforever]

OMG! That was totally AWESOME, Trina!

[Dana0715]

Tru was standing outside Jack's apartment door. She fussed with her dress for a moment, debating. Should she REALLY do this?

Davis had told her the book was really legit, and regardless of his gut instinct that something wasn't right about any of this, Tru made the decision

She will help Jack. She'll assist him with crossing over.

She knocked on the door and waited...

Jack opened the door, dressed in black slacks and silk shirt. She doesn't usually see him dressed up. His main "uniform" is leather jacket, shirt and jeans. And he had a killer smile when he did actually use it

He leaned against the door, looking Tru over in her red mini dress

"You look fantastic." Jack finally said when he could swallow and get the words out

"You clean up pretty nicely yourself." she replied. Then she realized she was still standing in the hallway. "Um.... may I come in?"

Jack almost hit himself on the head for that oversight, "I'm sorry.... sure! Come in and make yourself at home." he answered as he stepped back, allowing her in. Once she crossed the threshold, he closed the door.... and after a moment of debating, he locked it.

Tru will outright hate him later..... but it's better for her to be alive so that she CAN hate him, than to die because of not going through with this

"God forgive me" he murmured as he grabbed the champagne bucket from his kitchen and two glasses, heading into the living room where Tru was waiting

---------------------------------------------
Tru was grateful for the champagne. She knew she would need a little loosening up. And she hoped that Jack was drinking it for the same purpose. Because this would probably be awkward at first

Tru crossed her legs on the couch and lounged back comfortably, with Jack seated closely next to her

Neither touching each other yet. Jack felt like this was prom night..... or at least his experience of it, the first time he was going to experience a "home run" with a girl and he wasn't for sure what to do on that night.

He's had plenty of experience with sex now, but this was Tru! It had to be just right for everything to work. And that put a lot of pressure on him

And the "little man". He knew if he kept stressing, this won't work and the "little man" won't come out to play..... or rise to the occassion, or any other euphemisms one can come up with for "can't get it up".

After finishing a second glass each of champagne, Tru finally felt relaxed enough to ask, "So.... where do we start?"

Boy! She really gets straight to the point! Jack answered, "Let's not put any pressure on anything. We can just lie down on the bed, fully clothed and continue with the champagne and strawberries.... and just getting to know each other for now. Let it happen naturally and not try to rush it. That's the whole point of Tantra teachings, breathe, relax and let it all flow naturally."

Tru stood, and then swayed. Jack caught her as he stood and she swayed toward him.

Clinging to his shirt, Tru said, "Whoa! I must have stood up too quickly."

"Or drank two glasses of champagne too quickly. You do need to lie down."

She looked up into his eyes with a dreamy expression, "Do you think I'm pretty?"

Jack gulped, then answered huskily, "You're gorgeous, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart."

She smiled and reached up to pat his cheek, "You're the gorgeous one Jack..... how can you walk out the door every day without every woman wanting to maul you?"

Jack chuckled. Tru's on her way to getting pretty drunk. He shrugged, "It's a gift."

She shook her head, "I think they're just blind." She started to step back from Jack, testing her legs and she swayed again, Jack caught her again and supported her.

"Let's get you in the bedroom.... and by the way, if you throw up on my sheets, you're buying me a new bed."

Then he led her into the bedroom, and Harrison was still passed out in the closet.

WOOHOO! I love it!! I love this line:


"God forgive me" he murmured as he grabbed the champagne bucket from his kitchen and two glasses, heading into the living room where Tru was waiting.

Another sweet chapter, Trina!

[There Is No Spoon]

Awesome updates Trina.

Looking forward to reading your next update.

[Dana0715]

Jack switched Tru to club soda and more berries, she drank the champagne earlier on an empty stomach and he was trying to rectify that problem. She admitted she had been too nervous to eat before coming over

She finally relaxed and the two of them just laid in bed side by side, Tru's head on Jack's shoulder. The cadence of his voice as he spoke of a youth of foster homes and the hi-jinks he and his friends got into in his teen years helped relax her, as well as hearing his heart beat underneath her

He looked down at her to check on her and at the same time she looked up and their eyes met

Jack knew it.... this is it, the moment of truth. Do it or back away

Tru took the decision away from him when she rolled slowly to where she was on top of him....and she bent forward and kissed him

She read up on Tantra just like he did, the difference here is that Jack had taken a class or two in the past on it. It was to score with a girl he was dating at that time and that was what she was into and therefore, he attended the classes with her

He did learn a lot surprisingly. The Western culture usually has sex with certain goals. Foreplay, then penetration, then orgasm. Bing, bang, boom! It's over, got the rocks off, move on to the next one!

But Tantra teaches to first, not focus on orgasm, but instead to stay relaxed, and always BREATHE. Breathe from the diaphram. Breathe the sexual energy from the genitals and spread to the rest of the body.

He found out it's so easy to STOP breathing, or to breathe shallowly when you're about to cum that he had to condition himself to slow down...... breathing deep helps you feel the whole body experience, and connect spiritually with your partner

That's the true key here. Connection. He has to connect with Tru, that's the whole point of tantric sex pulling one or the other

She was still stretched out over him and kissing him. Surprisingly, it was in a loving, almost gentle way and he trembled, something he never does with any woman until now. He wants this moment to be special regardless. If the day rewinds, he'll never have this moment again because Tru will absolutely loathe him

He found the zipper on the back of her dress with one hand, and he cupped her cheek with the other, raising her head from his lips. He quirked an eyebrow in query and then actually asked, "May I? I don't want to be too presumptuous here...."

"Please..." she whispered, giving her acquiescence. He slowly lowered the zipper on the back of her dress until it stopped at her hips. Using his hands to rub the area that is now exposed, he groaned and kissed her when he realized, she's not wearing a bra

And from what he can tell.... oh my sweet Lord!..... no panties either

Yep! 'Little Man" does want to come out and play! Whew! That's a relief! At least now he doesn't have to worry about THAT embarassing problem!

He worked his way using his mouth, down to her throat, kissing, nibbling and licking a path to her collarbone. And then Jack realized that Tru was working on his shirt buttons. She began slowly unbuttoning each button and kissing a path down his chest every time she exposed more skin. The red lipstick stains on his chest and stomach would make very clear to anyone what a woman was doing to him if he had to suddenly answer the door

She was slowly driving him crazy!

He flipped her onto her back and took off his shirt. If she kept kissing him and touching him like she was doing, it would be over way too quickly. He had to take some control back. He raised up, kneeling between her knees and slowly helped her remove her dress. When he saw the naked body that was indeed underneath, he whistled low

"Where have YOU been all my life?"

"Right under your nose obviously!"

"Looks like I was the one that was blind then!"

------------------------------
TBC... more to come

[Dana0715]

Jack stood next to the bed and began taking off his pants, starting with the belt, the the button, then the zipper and he dropped the pants on the floor, stepping out of them and kicking them out of the way. He started to climb back on the bed but Tru spoke, causing him to pause

"You forgot something." and her eyes indicated the black boxer briefs he was wearing and she was staring longingly at the bulging cock underneath

"I didn't forget..... slowly, remember? I will need a little bit of a buffer to keep it slow. They'll come off eventually.... just not right now."

Sitting at the foot of the bed, he picked up one of her feet, placed it in his lap and slowly gave a foot massage. He never considered himself a "foot man", but her cute red-painted toenails, her slim feet and slim ankles just about made him turn to foot fetishes!

She moaned when he pressed a certain area on the ball of her foot, then he used his thumbs alternately to stroke up and down her foot, applying enough pressure so that it won't tickle

He finally lifted the bare foot he'd been massaging, and sucked her big toe into his mouth

"Oh my God!" Tru exclaimed. "No one has ever..."

"Kissed your feet? You're like a goddess Tru, and I'm worshipping you."

Tru moaned when Jack's tongue licked between her toes and caught the second and third toes into his mouth

"F*ck!" Tru exclaimed.... she couldn't believe she was almost ready to cum so easily, just off of toe sucking! Who knew?

Jack stopped and instructed, "Breathe Tru. Breathe deeply through it. Feel the energy flow through your body. You know how you were taught in track how to breathe properly? You need to do that here."

When she did as instructed, he went back to what he was doing. Once he saw she was breathing through everything he did, he pulled the other foot over to him and giving it the same treatment

Tru moaned again and said, "I'm now VERY glad I'm particular about foot care!"

"Trust me! Me too! More than you know!" Jack quipped

"Come up here with me Jack.... please?"

He crawled over beside her, propped an elbow on the pillow next to her and asked, "Yes Tru?"

'I don't know how to put this, but I want to try that rocking thing I read about in that Tantra book."

He knew exactly what she meant, it's one of the more basic positions. "That involves actual penetration, are you ready for that?"

"I want you inside me Jack."

"Let me do something first, I just want to be absolutely sure you're ready."

He kept eye contact with her as his hand trailed down her stomach to her p*ssy lips. A finger stroked her and she was thoroughly wet. He brought it to his mouth and sucked his own finger, tasting her juices

"Sorry Tru, but that little taste is not enough. I need more."

He crawled down her body and maneuvered to where his face was between her legs. He was breathing right on her clit as he looked at her

"Remember..... breathe or I stop. Every time I hear a catch in your breath, I'm going to stop until you breathe like you're supposed to."

The first lap of his tongue was exquisite. She finally found a man that can eat p*ssy and not only know what he's doing, but actually enjoy doing it!!

She breathed deeply and she felt tingles throughout her body. More juices lubricated her and Jack licked them up, bringing it to her clit to lubricate the feel of his tongue on her

Jack noticed a hitch in her breathing and he stopped, raising his head up

"Tru, look at me, keep eye contact and keep breathing."

"Demanding aren't you?"

"Damn straight! You know I take nothing off anyone! But I'm sure you want to do this right and we need to connect, therefore, keep eye contact with me."

This was one of the most powerful spiritual connections she ever had with a man. She was watching Jack lick her like he really enjoyed what he was doing, he kept eye contact with her and she with him. She brought her hands down to spear her fingers into his hair, keeping him exactly where he is

Finally he climbed up her body, and she still kept eye contact. He was on his hands and knees above her and he lowered his mouth for a kiss, allowing her a taste of her own cream

Something about this was so incredibly intimate to her and she kissed him back reverently. Her hands was at his waistband on the boxer briefs and he got the hint

Now's the time!

He crawled off the bed, removed the boxers, and then asked, "Um.... do we need condoms? I have some, but..."

She shook her head, "I'm on the pill"

"Any diseases I need to know about, now's the time to tell me Tru."

"Nope! Perfectly clean bill of health on my last physical three months ago. You?"

"Same here, and last physical was just last month. So we can do without the condom?"

"Please do! Get up here! I want to feel you inside me."

He climbed onto the bed and she flipped him onto his back with her on top

Jack exclaimed, "Damn! Now who's bossy and trying to call the shots?"

"If you ever want to do this with me again, get used to it!"

Jack wanted more than ANYTHING to have this opportunity again with her, but he knew it wasn't likely to happen. Which makes this moment bittersweet.

"Take me however you want to Tru. I'm all yours."

Apparently it took longer for the previous occupant to get off the computer. So sorry for the late reply, I just wanted to let you know that I love both new chapters!

[Dana0715]

Tru's grin was completely impish as she crawled down Jack's body

'Tru.... that look is incredibly sexy.... but what's going through your mind?"

Her mouth was hovering above his cock and she met his eyes with hers again

"What does it look like cowboy?"

"It looks like you're going to suck my d!ck."

'Man! We really ARE connected aren't we? You read my mind!"

"Well, what are you waiting for?" Jack moved his hips toward her in emphasis. She stuck out her tongue and licked him from the bottom of his shaft, zig-zagging her tongue back and forth over his cock until she reached the top. She paid special attention to the head and underside, all the while watching Jack's reactions

He tried to keep eye contact, for the love of God he truly tried, but he closed his eyes when she sucked him completely into her hot mouth.

She sucked him slowly and thoroughly. SHE even stopped once and had to remind Jack to breathe! Then finally she stopped altogether and straddled him, having him prop himself up with pillows behind him, he was sitting upright. She placed him inside her and worked herself over his girth until he was completely inside, all the way to the hilt and she was sitting in his lap, his hands carressing her back

She leaned forward until her mouth was millimeters from Jack's, almost kissing but not quite. They stayed just like that for a moment and they breathed in tandem. As she would breathe out, he'd breathe in, then he'd breathe out and she'd breathe in. They were breathing each other, taking in each other's breath, a symbol of connection, and then finally they kissed

Jack rocked forward, which brought Tru backward and then he rocked back bringing Tru forward. Periodically, Tru would squeeze her vaginal muscles, which kept Jack hard. They were connected everywhere physically that they should be. Mouths, arms, genitals and legs. They continued breathing into each other, which caused a very heady sensation

And finally after two hours of them working on each other, Tru came, calling out Jack's name and a bright light was infiltrating the room, sucking the two of them into a vortex. Tru kept cumming, over and over, not seeming to realize anything but what she was feeling. Jack still held her in his lap and he bit her neck, trying to hold himself back.... just ..... a little...... longer

And when he realized she was completely finished, he finally let himself go inside of her and he held tightly to her as he came, feeling the light and vortex around them until he was finished

Then they clung to each other in wonder until they heard a harsh knocking on the door.

"Jack!! Tru!! Open this door!! It's Davis and it's really important!!! Open up!!!"

Jack and Tru looked at each other and wondered

Just which side are they on now? Did it work? They'll find out for sure if it's a rewind day!

---------------------------------------

[lauraforever]

I just LOVE the beginning of the brand spankin' new chapter! This was a very HOT chapter!

[Dana0715]

Davis knocking on the door finally penetrated the fog left behind with Tru and Jack. Tru got off Jack's lap and Jack reached for his robe, putting it on and tying it as he got of bed and headed for the door

"Alright! Keep your shirt on Davis! I'm coming!" Jack yelled, then he unlocked the door and opened it. David plowed inside right past Jack without being invited

This had to be big, because one thing usually consistent about Davis is his shyness and politeness.

"Where's Tru?" Davis asked, looking around the living room

"I'm right here." Tru answered, having wrapped herself in Jack's sheet

Davis saw her state of undress and muttered, "Damn! I'm too late!"

"What is it Davis?" Tru asked

Davis was pacing the living room, tossing some papers onto the coffee table and speared his hands through his hair, before he stopped and turned to look at both Jack and Tru

"Who came first?" Davis blurted

"Ex-CUSE me??" Jack asked

"Who orgasmed first?"

"None of your business!" Jack retorted, sounding furious

"Well since Tru is asking for my help, I think it is! I hate to ask, but it's really important."

Before Jack could just throw Davis out of his apartment, Tru placed a hand on Jack's chest, stilling him, and she asked, "Why is it so important to know Davis?"

"Because that is the one that will cross over..... the one with the strongest will does not cross over, meaning the one that holds off orgasm until last." Davis pointed a finger at Jack, "And you knew that didn't you?"

Before Jack could say anything, Davis crossed the floor and stood before the taller man, for once not seeming intimidated because he was protecting a dear friend, "You knew this! And you also know that the 'gift' has to be given to someone else to take over. I'd bet one thousand dollars that you have someone else in this apartment too."

Tru was trying to give Jack the benefit of the doubt, "Davis, it's just me and Jack. No one else is here."

Jack put his game face on, the one that shows no emotion, "Yeah Davis, why don't you take a look around if you don't believe me? Which, by the way, is nothing new is it?"

While Davis and Jack were arguing, Tru heard a thump and she raised a hand and said, "Hey! Guys! Quiet! I hear something!"

Jack knew he was going to be in hot water now! He should have sedated Harrison again before Tru showed up!

They heard two more thumps and Jack said, "It's probably just my cat."

[lauraforever]

WOOHOO!! I love it!! LOLZ! "It's probably just my cat." Yeah right! :p

[Dana0715]

Tru followed the sound to the closet, and Jack jumped in front of her, blocking the closet

"Um.... stand back. This cat can jump and scratch."

Davis rolled his eyes, "I don't believe a word of it. Someone is in there!"

Then Tru heard a muffled noise

She recognized it, "Harry??"

Now she pushed Jack out of the way with Davis's help. They both opened the closet door and found the trunk

Jack was trying to talk, "Tru, let me explain..."

Tru opened the trunk and was shocked to find her brother bound and gagged inside, his eyes widened when he saw Tru in just a sheet

Davis placed a hand on Tru's shoulder, squatting next to her, "I'll handle this Tru."

She stood with her hand over her mouth in shock, then she turned on Jack and began attacking him with her fists raised and coming down on his chest and shoulders

"How COULD you??? What is the purpose of kidnapping my little brother???"

Jack had to raise his arms to protect his face in between blows, "Tru! I can explain this!"

By then, Davis had Harrison out of the trunk. Harrison rolled his shoulders, popped his neck and shook himself, trying to work out a few kinks. Then he got between Tru and Jack, pulling Tru away from Jack by using an arm around her waist.

She was reaching for Jack in her hatred, "Let me at him! I'm going to SO F*CKING KILL YOU!!"

Harrison stood in front of Tru, restraining her, "Tru, I got this! Stop!"

Jack made the mistake of asking, "What do you mean 'you got this'?"

Harrison turned and nailed Jack right on the nose with his fist, bringing Jack down to his knees, holding his bleeding nose

He looked at Harrison in astonishment and then said in a sarcastic tone, "Ow! There IS an explanation to all of this!"

Tru pointed at Jack accusingly, "Tell it to the judge buddy! Davis! Call the police!"

"But Tru! Your Dad had me do this!"

"Wait Davis!" Tru called out to him, then turned to Jack, "What did you say?"

'He said I set this up..."

That voice came from the doorway that was still open. Richard Davies was leaning against the threshold. No one knew how long he had been there

Harrison's hatred for his dad just doubled at that admission, "You had me set up?? Why??"

Richard drew out a gun, aimed it at Tru, and said, "This!" then shot the gun

It hit Tru right between the eyes and she fell back. The last thing Tru heard was Harrison's scream of "NOOOOO!!!", Davis trying to check her over, and the fading sounds of Jack and Richard arguing.

Then Tru died.

Harrision pushed Davis away from Tru and knelt next to her, pulling her body to him in a hug, not caring about the blood

'Oh God Tru! Don't leave me!! Please???"

He heard Tru's whispered voice, "Harrison?"

Shocked, he leaned back to look at Tru again

Her eyes suddenly opened wide, looking straight at Harrison

"HELP ME!"
-----------------------------------------
Next thing Harrison knew, his day was starting over exactly as it had done. He woke up in his bed with the floozy he brought home the night before, the same song playing on the clock radio..... and he finally got it

His day just rewound

Which means Tru is still alive and he can stop this madness! He jumped out of bed as quick as possible, urgently getting dressed

And Jack's job is to make sure it still happens! Jack woke up in his bed also, day rewound, remembering EVERYTHING. And soooo not wanting to do his job, because Tru died before the rewind anyway!

Tru? Same thing...... her day rewound, which means if she really has crossed to Jack's side instead of the other way around, she's supposed to stay dead, or death will constantly follow her.

Teeny tiny update!
------------------------------------------

Harrison skidded to a stop outside Tru's apartment as she came rushing out, locking the door behind her

"Tru! Oh thank God!!" Harrison hugged her hard in relief and she hugged him back

"Har.... what brings you here?"

He pulled her away, holding her at her shoulders and giving her a slight shake. "I get it now Tru! My day rewound with you!"

Tru was shocked, "What? Har... you remember..."

"Everything!! Dad shot you, and Jack kidnapped me, and....."

"Ohmigod Har.... you DO remember! You rewound too?? How could that be possible?"

"There's only one way to find out....... we pay a visit to Dad."

Wow!! Awesome updates Trina.

[Dana0715]

Tru and Harrison started jogging to the stairs, and Jack was coming up them as they were going down

Harrison sneered, "Ah Jack! I see the broken nose is no longer there. Here! Let me fix that!"

Harrison swung and this time, Jack ducked, causing Harrison, in his impetus, to fall down the flight of stairs, rolling

"Harry!" Tru exclaimed and ran down to him to check for injuries

Harrison, in his embarrassment, pushed Tru away and stood, looking up at Jack about five steps above him

Jack was shaking his head in admonishment, "Believe it or not Harrison, I'm not the bad guy here."

Harrison was furious, "Excuse me for not believing you Jack. You see, usually when a guy knocks you out, kidnaps you, binds and gags you, and throws you into a trunk..... well as they say, if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, chances are, it's a duck!"

"So it worked! You rewound?"

"Yep!"

"And that would mean you took Tru's place, which puts her..."

Tru answered, "On death's side! I know that Jack! There's gotta be a way to reverse this!"

"And that's why I'm here.... I want to reverse it. Look! Your dad had a contract on you, he was hiring someone to kill you if I didn't.... make you cross over. I should have never done it because he killed you anyway."

Tru was thinking, "I think he just took the chance of a rewind happening."

"Maybe." Jack replied, "But I know him well enough that if the two of you go storming over there, it will be a trap. Who knows you two better than your own father?"

Harrison shook his head, hands on his hips, "No! That man was NEVER a real father to us. As soon as Meridith was 18, he took off on us. We took care of ourselves since."

"And I have free will Jack!" Tru reiterated. "I can CHOOSE to help Harrison."

"Sure! And your days rewind over and over and over again Tru. Do you want to spend the rest of your life reliving the same damn day over and over?"

"If I have to, yes. I'd rather do that than play death angel."

Jack started walking down the steps to them, "The Oracle would never put up with that Tru.... she'll take care of you in a lot worse ways until you conform. Been there, done that, own the t-shirt and all that crap!" Then he snapped his fingers like he had an epiphany, "OR you can have sex with your counterpart..... but WAIT! That would be YOUR OWN BROTHER now wouldn't it? Richard knew exactly what he was doing to keep you trapped. Incestuous sex is just plain WRONG isn't it Tru? He knew you two would never do that, and therefore...." He shrugged, "You're stuck my friend!"

"Friend??" Tru poked Jack in the chest with her pointer finger, hard, "WE are NOT friends Jack! And after what you've pulled, we never will be!"

"You tell him sister!" Harrison said, standing close behind her in support

Jack shook his head sadly. He looked regretful, "Tru, it's not that easy."

"Well it is for me big boy! Watch me!" and she started to turn away and Jack grabbed her by the elbow, swinging her back to face him

Jack looked down at her neck and back to her eyes, "Have you checked yourself in the mirror Tru? The hickey I gave you is STILL on your neck. You're branded."

"What does THAT mean??" Tru asked as she dug into her purse for a compact

"It's like a spiritual marriage Tru. We're bound now."

Tru found her compact and checked her neck. She rubbed on it, inanely making sure she couldn't get it off

"That mark stayed through the rewind Tru. The Oracle meant for us to work together, to be mates if you will. Our joining was actually pre-destined and THAT might have also been what Davis was coming to tell us. But Richard played with destiny. We were supposed to work together SAVING people, but he forced my hand Tru, threatening to have you killed and changing destiny, trapping us both."

Tru snapped the compact shut and put it back in her purse, facing Jack, "I will NEVER help you with this death crap. You can count on that."

"Do you not get it Tru? I'm just as much a victim as you are. My original intention was to join YOU, not the other way around. I thought I was keeping you alive and Richard showed instead that he's calling all the shots. I don't think we should see Richard. I can guarantee it's a trap."

Harrison and Tru looked at each other, then back at Jack skeptically. Tru crossed her arms and tossed her hair back, "Fine! Who do you suggest?"

"Isn't it obvious? We go see The Oracle instead."

Fantastic update Trina.

[Dana0715]

Tru didn't trust Jack enough to have her and Harrison ride in his car. That would leave them with no escape, no safety blanket, and everything in his control

So she and Harrison followed Jack in Harrison's car, Jack driving his own car

It was a five hour drive to the North Carolina mountains. They finally had to park and get camping gear they bought on the way to travel by foot for the rest of the trip to see the Oracle

They had all packed clothing for 2-3 days, each shouldering a duffel and looking up at the incline of a mountain they will be climbing

"I hope all that track you ran in high school paid off Tru." Jack smiled and shouldered his duffel, 'Because you're going to need all the advantage you can keep."

"What? You think because I'm a woman I can't handle a little hike up an incline in the woods?"

Jack turned and walked a few steps backwards, smiling like a cheshire cat, arms wide "I guess we'll find out won't we?"

She and Harrison shouldered their own packs and began following Jack

They had traveled a couple of miles on a trail that led up a steady incline. Harrison complained highly about everything on the way, the heat, the bugs, the smells, etc. He was a city boy and hated hiking and hunting and all that outdoorsy stuff. Give him a good poker game any day of the week inside an air-conditioned, bug free environment!

He slapped a mosquito that landed on his neck and asked, "So this Oracle lives in a shack in the woods?? Sounds like something out of a horror movie to me!"

Jack rolled his eyes in exasperation, "She lives in a hunting cabin, not a shack, and yes it's in the woods. And every time you ask that same question Harrison, you're going to get the same f*cking answer!"

Harrison liked that he was getting on Jack's nerves, so he needled Jack a bit "Oh! Have I ticked off the death angel?"

"Dude! Not a death angel. Call it 'Protector of Destiny' if you like. There IS a difference."

"Not in my book Bro!" Harrison responded. "It's all the same thing. Death comes knocking and you make sure it happens. Now Tru is trapped into doing the same thing and it's all your fault."

Jack had had enough. He blamed himself enough already without this snot-nosed brat reminding him of it! He threw down his duffel and grabbed Harrison by the collar, slamming him against a tree

"For the LAST TIME Harrison, I want out! OK? I am seeing this Oracle to STOP this and return Tru where she rightfully belongs. In the meantime, you're taking her place, so get used to it! And since Tru is the one you have to make sure stays alive on this rewind, that's the ONLY reason you're here with us playing chaperone so that the Oracle won't force me to kill her to balance destiny, got it? Next time you shoot your mouth off at me, it's getting punched and you will lose some teeth out of that pretty face of yours. And I'd REALLY enjoy every minute of it, except for the fact that it would hurt Tru. She is the ONLY reason I don't take the shot right now."

He released Harrison with a push, then picked up his duffel, shouldering it again. He shot a look at Tru as he walked by her, a look of warning that he was on edge and NOT to push him

Jack called back while he walked the trail, "Final warning Harrison.... any more lip, and it's over! I've had it!"

WOOHOO!! Love this chapter!

[There Is No Spoon]

Wow!!! Great update Trina.

Guess it is not good to piss off Jack.

Looking forward to reading your next update.

[Dana0715]

At dusk, they decided to stop and set up camp.

Each had their own tents to pitch. Jack began foraging the woods looking for wood to start a fire. The mountains get chilly when the sun goes down.

Tru was checking over the canned foodstuffs, trying to figure out what to warm up for everyone. She brought a large pot and utensils and bowls.

"OK Har, if I cook, you clean. Are we clear on that?"

"That's probably safest. I have trouble boiling water!"

"Which means I have to boil water for you to do dishes huh?"

Jack got back with an armload of kindling, setting it down and with Tru's help, building a pit for a fire. Jack answered, "I'll help him. If you're cooking, I agree it's fair for us to clean up."

"Why are you being so nice all of a sudden?" Harrison asked suspiciously

Jack raised an eyebrow at him while striking a match, "We need to try and get along on this trip Harrison. Frankly I don't want to spend it fighting."

"What do you think the Oracle will tell us?" Tru asked Jack as smoke started and Tru bent down to blow lightly and get the fire burning

Harrison scoffed, "Probably what we already know. That we're screwed!"

"Har!" Tru admonished, raising up, "Give it a chance! For every action...."

Jack finished, "There's an equal but opposite reaction. Exactly Tru! That's why we do what we do. And how destiny stays balanced."

Once the fire was going good, Tru set a pot of beef stew to hang over the fire

Harrison was young, but smart as a whip. "So since this is done, there's a way to un-do it? Is that what you're saying?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying." Jack responded. "It's just beyond me what exactly it is that we have to do. If we're on the same side now, I don't see how we can cross back over."

"Well answer me this." Tru began, stirring the stew and keeping an eye on it, "What did you mean by us being joined in a spiritual marriage of sorts?"

"To be blunt about it, when you're horny, I know it and when I'm horny, you know it. And then we'll...."

"Ahh!" Harrison covered his ears in revulsion, "I don't want to hear this!!" Then he uncovered his ears carefully, seeing Jack trying to hide his laughter while Tru looked at Harrison like he was crazy

Harrison had a hand up, signaling to give him a minute to wrap his mind around this, "Ok.... it's hormonal then right? When either of you want to...." Harrison shuddered

"Let me explain the birds and bees to you Harry." Jack began humorously, "When a man and woman feel..... antsy, generally they help each other get through that. In this case, the way I know Tru wants 'it' is when my own body is turned on. We'll be in sync. Did you not see how we just worked together in starting a campfire? It's more psychic actually. We're in perfect sync now."

"OK, rule number one!" Harrison announced, "If you two are going to do the nasty...... please for the love of God do it FAR away from me, OK? I don't want to hear it, I don't want to KNOW about it!"

Tru was becoming offended at her brother's reactions, "Har....I'm a grown, perfectly healthy woman that does, at times, have certain needs..."

"Ahhhhh!" Harrison covered his ears again, "Don't want to hear this! I don't hear you Tru! La, la, la, la, la.! Can't hear you!!"

Jack was rolling this time, laughing hard, "Dude! It's perfectly natural. I KNOW you do it."

Harrison released his ears again, "Yeah, but I don't flaunt it to my SISTER, OK? Some things we rather keep to ourselves, thanks!"

After they ate stew and bread, Jack and Harrison cleaned up the dishes and put everything away

Jack declared, "I'll do the cooking tomorrow morning. I always hated doing dishes!"

Harrison stretched and yawned, "I'm going to turn in.... and warning you again, DON'T let me hear ANYTHING of a sexual nature while I'm trying to sleep, OK?"

Harrison shuddered at the thought again, then crawled into his tent. He had bought an air mattress that he inflated with a pull of a string. After covering up with his blanket, he drifted off to sleep almost immediately

Tru and Jack just stared at each other across the campfire

Jack and Tru both were more effected by the whole sexual talk than they let on to Harrison

Jack made no bones about it, "I want you Tru."

She could feel it too.... and dammit! She hated herself for wanting him just as badly

"Where?" Tru asked

Jack stood and extended a hand, "Follow me."

Tru took his hand and stood, walking with him as he led her through a path to the stream. Jack was apparently right..... after their experience, they truly were spiritually joined

And she was helpless in her want... and it made her feel somewhat ashamed

Jack knew it, he felt the exact same way, but also powerless to stop the pull too

"Forget the tantric crap!" Jack announced as he pulled Tru flush against his body and kissed her hard. They were both breathing hard

"We simply f*ck! I won't be able to hold out for two hours this time!"

[lauraforever]

That is a totally awesome new chapter, Trina! Well done!!

[Dana0715]

They were tearing off each other's clothes within minutes. Jack made a bed of sorts using their clothing and he laid Tru on the bank, the moonlight the only light for him to see what was in front of him

Tru's legs fell open, and she pleaded.... "Jack?? I need you!"

"Just what I wanted to hear!"

She was apparently SERIOUSLY turned on, because she was incredibly wet when he entered her. No foreplay needed

Tru was amazed.... and yet strangely repulsed at the same time. Jack was technically still her enemy. She wondered briefly if it's the air of danger about him that turns her on so much? Gives more of an edge to her arousal?

His colongne alone almost sent her into orbit. The same smell from the last time they were together

Kissing him was as natural as breathing. She couldn't get enough of his mouth, she definitely couldnt' get enough of his touch, how he squeezed her breast as he entered her again, how he placed another hickey on her neck and she did the same to him.

She flipped him to where he was directly on the grass and she was on top, riding him hard. He grabbed her hips and raised his own hips in rhythm with hers

The sight of Tru's body arched and riding him in the moonlight...... Jack was sure the memory would be branded in his brain for the rest of his life

"Jack!" Tru whispered, trying to keep her voice down so Harrison won't hear them

He heard the crack in her voice when she called his name and he had thrust up particularly hard, "Yes Tru?"

She bent forward to kiss him, he held on tightly to her hips, thrusting up and rubbing his pubic bone against her as she ground down on him

"Tru!" Jack said against her mouth, panting, "I've NEVER felt.... this..... OH GOD!"

Tru almost had him cumming, she wanted to cum with him and ground harder against him.

He now hugged her whole body close and flipped them again where he was on top, her hands pinned above her head, his mouth against her cheek and trailed to her ear

She could hear him panting, losing control and she encouraged him, "Yes! Yes Jack! Please!!"

He pounded into her and then the ultimate happened

They both came together. Jack kissed her on the mouth at the exact time they came, muffling their noises and groans

Tru felt Jack cum and spasm within her as her vaginal walls spasmed with her own orgasm. His body stuttered, then stilled deep inside her, spewing forth his seed within her

Tru moaned, her orgasm caused her whole body to sing...... and want to do it again

What the hell was wrong with her??

Jack, unbelievably, was getting hard again in response

"Tru! You're going to kill me here! I haven't done THAT since high school!!"

"Done what? Had sex?"

"Hell no! Get hard right after cumming. I'm supposed to be past that age now!"

He was still inside her, getting harder and her p*ssy muscles contracted, making him groan against her neck

"OK.... you win!" Jack panted, "One more time, and that's it."

Tru nodded, "Right! Once more! That's all!"

But the truth was..... they only got a couple of hours sleep that night. They shared a tent.... saying to each other it was only to share body heat

They fell into an exhausted sleep holding each other. Jack awoke before Harrison, and he crawled out of Tru's tent to go back to his own before Harrison awoke

WOOHOO! I Love it!!

Amazing updates Trina.

Harrison's antics about not wanting to hear about his sister and Jack getting busy was hilarious. Nicely done.

Looking forward to reading your next update.

Post soon.

[Dana0715]

The smell of coffee woke Tru up at dawn. She rolled over in the tent and checked her watch. Only two hours of sleep.

Jack kept her busy last night.... just like she kept HIM busy as well

She felt next to her and she could smell the remnants of his cologne on the pillow next to her. She wanted so much to snuggle down and go back to sleep, but they still had a long hike ahead of them. Tonight, she swore to herself, she's going straight to bed after eating supper to catch up on sleep

Jack knocked lightly on the tent flap and then poked his head in, checking on Tru

"Morning sunshine! Up and at 'em! We need to eat breakfast and break camp, get an early start. Should make it to the Oracle a little after lunchtime."

A little groggy, she sat up and the covers fell, revealing her naked upper body as she yawned and stretched

"Tru? Seriously! Get some clothes on, or Harrison is going to be hearing something he doesn't want to going on in this tent within 30 seconds... if you get my drift!"

And Jack turned away from temptation, closing the tent flap

He doesn't understand why this need for her is within him. He studied up on the psychic connection they would share, and due to that connection, they both knew two things

One, it was impossible for them to keep their hands to themselves for long

And two, they had a love/hate relationship. Loved the sex but hated each other

Well, if Jack was honest with himself, he didn't really HATE Tru, but he felt that she did hate him, due to their connection he could feel that coming off of her in waves sometimes. Probably due to Luc, more than likely due to recent events with Harrison and the switcheroo he was forced to perform...... and basically finding herself literally sleeping with the enemy

The Oracle doesn't tolerate stupidity either. No one here is stupid, and he actually felt kinda sorry for Richard. Because once the Oracle knows what he did, he's in for it!

-----------------------------------------
They headed out an hour later and the incline was steeper than before. Jack climbed it with next to no problem. Tru and Harrison both were physically fit, and didn't have a whole lot of trouble either

Harrison turned on an IPOD and put the earbuds in his ears, so Tru caught up with Jack and they talked

"Regretting last night?" Jack asked with the slightest bit of sarcasm, not looking at her, just watching his step as he kept walking the trail

"Honestly? Some. I don't get it I guess. This whole pre-destined crap sounds like there's no free will to me."

"We choose to accept our destiny or we don't. It's that simple Tru. That's about as far as 'free will' goes."

"You said something about us being pre-destined for each other, but I don't see how that can work out Jack. You and I are from two completely different worlds and I could never do what you do."

Jack gave her a sardonic smile, "Welcome to the dark side Tru! You have NO IDEA how I feel the same way sometimes."

"I won't be staying, if I have anything to say about it."

"I agree.... you don't belong here Tru. I want to save people as well like you have done, but I'm beginning to think Richard screwed it up big time for us. I'm asking the Oracle for help. If I can't cross over, I want to make sure that YOU do. You would never be happy otherwise and to be honest, I would hate to be the cause of that."

That stopped Tru in her tracks, and when Jack realized she wasn't next to him, he stopped too a little ways up the hill from her

He turned to look back at Tru, "What?"

"It's surprising to hear that you actually care what happens to me, that's all."

Jack bit his tongue on the sharp retort he almost said. Instead he shrugged and began walking again, "I would feel the same way about anyone in the same situation Tru."

Harrison had caught up to Tru and removed an earbud, checking Tru over carefully and shooting a look at Jack's retreating back

"What did he say? What did he do? I'll kill him!"

"No, it's OK Har.... Jack is just an enigma. I can't pinpoint what it is about him."

"Just remember, he killed Luc. He may not have pulled the trigger, but he set it up. Just keep that in your mind and maybe you'll be able to stop screwing his brains out."

Tru turned to Harrison in surprise and he pointed at her neck, "More hickeys Tru.... and he has them too. What was I supposed to think?"

Before Tru could say anything, Harrison held a hand up for silence, "No Tru, I don't want to know the details. If after all he's done, you still want to have sex with him, there's not a whole lot I can say. I don't understand all this psychic business, but all I can do is be your brother and love you anyway. We'll figure this b!tch out together, OK?"

She nodded, then they hustled to catch up to Jack

Fantastic update Trina.

[Dana0715]

They arrived at the cabin of the Oracle mid-afternoon. Everyone was exhausted

Jack knocked on the door and a female voice within called out, "Jack, come on in! Tell Tru and Harrison to leave their packs outside."

Harrison and Tru were surprised.... but Jack was not the least surprised as he dropped his own pack

"She's the Oracle, she knows everything." was his only reply

When they entered the cabin, it was all one floor with about three bedrooms, a comfortable living room and kitchen area as well.

(Author's note, I am modeling this Oracle after the one on "The Matrix")

They found a black woman in her 50's who obviously chain smokes, going by the cigarette butts in the ashtray

But above the smell of smoke was the smell of food cooking.... and it made Tru's stomach rumble

The Oracle smiled at Tru knowingly, "Come here sweetie. We'll get all of you set up with some food, and THEN we'll talk."

She had expected them apparently and made a feast. Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob and green beans and corn bread

They all dug in like they hadn't eaten in a month!

She made sure to serve iced tea for them as well. Once they finished the main course, she offered dessert, pecan pie warm from the oven with ice cream

After everyone ate, the Oracle got down to business.

"Jack..... I understand you want OUT. You want to give up your gift."

Jack knew as often as he'd talked to the Oracle before that she can see things sometimes that even he himself doesn't realize until she brings it up and he thinks hard about it

"I'm tired of it frankly. Yes, I would like out but ONLY if Tru gets out too, or at least goes back to what she was doing, which was saving those that died prematurely."

"I see" the Oracle responded quietly, and then her piercing eyes were trained on Tru, making her squirm a little

Finally the Oracle said, "I think I'll get back to you later." She then turned to Harrison, "You never wanted this did you?"

"No ma'am." Harrison agreed

"Harrison, I think I might be able to help you, but it's actually up to Jack and Tru. So I know you're exhausted, you've just been fed, why don't you take one of the extra bedrooms and get yourself some sleep."

Harrison said, "I'm not sleepy..." and then he yawned wide, stretching. Then he looked at the Oracle in surprise, "How did you..?"

"Know? I know all child. Now go!"

Harrison did as he was told, and Tru knew that was NOT like the Harrison she knew. But it at least got him out of the room

"Now you two..... hormones are going a little awry, am I right?"

Tru nodded, Jack said nothing. She knows! So why bother?

The Oracle stared at Tru for a few minutes, making her squirm again, then finally took a drag off of her cigarette, blew the smoke out and smiled

"There are two ways we can go about this. Sex with the counterpart..."

Jack interrupted, "Which Tru can't do, because her counterpart is her own brother."

The Oracle looked sternly at Jack, "Haven't I taught you anything Jack? You have a counterpart too! There is always an opposite. If Harrison is Tru's counterpart, there has to be a female that is your counterpart now. So as I said, sex with the counterpart or...."

She paused for effect, looking at them both, "Or true love"

"WHAT???" Both Tru and Jack were dumbfounded

"You two were pre-destined to be together. But there will be a lot to overcome. This area, this space..." she encompassed the room around her, indicating it with her hands, "This yard outside, no rewinds happen here, no calls for help while you're here. Time stands still."

She stood up and laid a hand on Tru's head, closing her eyes. "You have love for Jack.... but it's buried beneath hurt and anger."

"I don't love Jack!" Tru exclaimed hotly

The Oracle smiled knowingly, not saying anything. She walked around to Jack and touched his head too

"You love Tru, but for you it's buried underneath guilt.... and fear."

Jack quirked an eyebrow at the old woman and she nodded, "I said fear Jack, I know what I'm talking about."

She walked into the middle of her living room, lit an incense stick, waved it around the room and then motioned Tru and Jack to come to her. Hesitantly, Tru follows Jack into the living room

The Oracle pulled out two pillows and plopped them on the floor

"I want you two to sit on the floor, you can use these pillows for cushioning, sit indian style with your knees touching, facing each other."

Skeptical, Tru looked at Jack and he shrugged, "Why not? Can't hurt!"

They did as instructed and she told them, "Now join hands. Jack, hold your hands out to Tru, and Tru, place your hands inside his."

Their hormones notched up just on that touch, and the Oracle knew it.

"Now, you do NOTHING but ride out the storm first. The storm of your lust. You must get past the lust and dig deeper. Keep eye contact and hold on to each other with your joined hands and WAIT until you're past the lust."

To both of them, it was easier said than done. Their hands clung to each other, their eyes staring into each other, memories of the past couple of nights coming through over and over in their minds, the Oracle reminding them both to breathe!!..... and then after the hardest few minutes of their lives, it faded

"There now! The next emotion in your way will come forth in you Tru. But no matter what, DON'T break the connection with Jack. I don't care how mad you get, and Jack, don't let her break the connection with your hands. Hang on to her until she rides it out! She will get past it."

Tru's memory flashed back to seeing Luc in his coffin, the outdoor ceremony, of staying with him for two days, never leaving the morgue and begging him to ask for her help, which he never did. Then the hateful confrontation she had with Jack afterward

(flashback)

It all began after she told Luc the truth about how she rewinds days. It was the reception of her best friend's wedding, who happened to also be Harrison's ex-girlfriend. Luc and Tru were dancing. Harrison was at the wedding of his ex-girlfriend as well sitting at a table getting drunk, but ONLY because Tru dragged him there so she could keep an eye on him. He died on her first rewind and she was making sure it won't happen again

Luc believed Tru was just telling him another lie and that she was delusional. He left her standing at the wedding reception and took off

And then Tru saw what was in Jack's memory of that time, like she was witnessing the conversation between Jack and Luc

Luc, who is a photographer, walks into his dark room. He looks at the photograph of Tru he developed earlier, hanging on a line. He picks it off and screws it up in a ball in his hands angrily.

Jack was standing at the door, leaning against the frame, "That’s a little harsh, don’t you think?"

"Actually, I’m not so sure it is!" Luc responded

Jack walked into the dark room nonchalantly, "Let me guess. She’s in love with someone else."

Luc shook his head and muttered, "I wish it were that simple."

"Well, I can see you need some alone-time, so…" Jack started to leave and Luc began talking, stopping Jack

"You know, she seemed so normal at first. I mean, she’s pretty, and smart, and…you know what? Forget it!"

Jack's hands were up, "Hey. Sorry for prying!"

Luc turned to Jack now and just spilled forth, "Okay, no, how about this? And I can’t believe I’m even repeating it. She thinks dead people talk to her!! What's that about huh?"

"Ah!" Jack responded, making it sound like Tru has gone off the deep end this time

"Yeah, yeah, she thinks that she…"

Jack interrupted, "Relives days? Yeah, sad huh?"

Luc was stunned, "How did you know that?"

"She told me too. This morning. It was a practice run for you, I think. And, yeah, it did sound crazy at first."

"Yeah!"

"Until I got some proof. And suddenly it didn’t seem so crazy, it sounded miraculous."

"You got proof??"

"Oh, yeah. Tru sent me to talk to this woman, Emma. She lives over on Bank Street. 95 Bank Street"

"And what did she tell you…Emma?"

"Well, I’m not really sure I can do it justice, but somehow she made everything clear. But don’t take my word for it, you should go talk to her yourself."

"I don’t know.....…Bank Street??"

"Yeah"

Luc grabbed his jacket, "Yeah. Why not? The things we do for love, huh?"

Jack stopped him for a moment, "Oh and, um, this Emma…is a bit of an odd bird. She tends to be more talkative if you go over there without being empty-handed, you know what I’m saying? Learn from my mistake. Flowers, not candy. Women!"

Luc was smiling now, "Great. Hey, thanks. Thanks Jack"

Jack's response was a little flat and sad, "Anytime"

At the morgue, Tru steps out of the elevator to see Jack standing there.

Back to the "game face", Jack asked, "So, your brother’s gonna live?"

"Yes he is, no thanks to you"

She walks past him, towards the dark room, and Jack was following her.

"Would it ring hollow to say I’m glad?"

"Would it ring hollow to say I don’t care?"

"Unfortunately, someone still has to die today, Tru. You know how it works."

Tru shot him a look as she opened the darkroom, "Try not to sound so broken up about it, Jack"

"I’m really sorry, Tru. Like I said, there are parts of my job that sometimes don’t make me feel so good about myself."

Tru suddenly realises he is leading somewhere with this. She bursts into the dark room. It’s empty.

She rounded on Jack, "What did you do to him?"

Jack's hands were up in supplication, "I didn’t do anything. You did. You told him who you are. I just told him where he could get proof."

Tru pushes past him and runs out of the morgue.

What Luc didn't know was that Emma had a stalker abusive ex-husband that was jealous of any man that paid attention to her. His name is Donnie, and they have a son together

Donnie knocks on Emma's door and uses his key to get in

"Emma? Come on, open up. Look, I’m sorry!"

He tries calling for his son, "Ethan? You guys home? Hello?"

He notices a note on the mirror. It reads:

“Donnie, we’ll be back when you calm down. Until then we went somewhere we’d be safe. Emma”

Donnie picks up the note and walks further into the living area. He whispers, "Safe? What the f*ck!!…?

There is a knocking at the door. Luc walks halfway into the hall, carrying flowers.

Donnie looked at him suspiciously, "Can I help you?"

"Yeah, um, I’m looking for Emma"

"She’s not here right now. And you are?"

"I’m Luc, er…"
He walks further into the room, holding a small bunch of flowers and Donnie nodded at the flowers, "Nice flowers. You a friend of Emma’s, Luc?"

"No, actually, we’ve…we’ve never even met before."

Donnie pulls out his gun, Luc's hands are up in immediate surrender

Donnie did the talking, "Okay, why don’t we try this again, and how about the truth this time? Are you a friend of my wife’s, Luc?"

At this time, Tru’s car was screeching to a halt outside 95 Bank Street. She jumps out and runs inside the house

Luc swallowed hard and nervously said, "I think there’s been some kind of mistake…"

Donnie was waving the gun, "Oh yeah, and you made it. Was it worth it? Because I know she’s good, but was it really worth your life, Luc?"

Luc tried again, "I understand that you’re upset sir, but I promise you I have never met your wife before"

"Then WHY do I see you, the two of you, in my bed, and it makes me sick! It makes me wanna…"

Tru runs in and steps between them.

Her hands were out toward Donnie, but her body was blocking Luc, trying to protect him, "No! Donnie, please, put the gun down, just listen to me!"

Donnie was getting more agitated and he pointed the gun at Luc, "He’s sleeping with her!"

Tru answered, trying to placate him, "No, he’s not, it’s all a misunderstanding."

Luc was trying to push Tru away, "Tru, get out of here!"

But Tru stood her ground and kept talking, "Donnie, please listen to me, we’ll all talk this out"

Donny's eyes were puddled with tears as he said, "I’m sorry, I can’t lose her."

Luc was whispering to Tru, "Now, I can handle this!"

She ignored him, "Donnie, don’t do this!"

Luc was beginning to panic, thinking of Tru's safety, "Tru, get out of here! Tru, go!"

Donnie said through his tears, "I’m so sorry…"

Tru was screaming, "Please, no! Donnie, don’t do this!"

Donnie fires the gun. Tru looks down at her arm: the bullet has grazed it, blood seeps through her jacket. She turns around slowly, and sees Luc lying on the ground. A single bullet hole in his chest, blood stretches slowly over his white shirt. He’s still conscious, gasping. Tru kneels beside him, freaking

"Oh, Luc…look at me. You’re okay…!"

She puts her hand on the wound but its bleeding too fast, his clothes and Tru’s hands are soaked in blood already.

Luc is gasping and looking at Tru, grabbing her hand, "I’m sorry…I’m sorry I didn’t believe you."

Tru was desparately trying to keep Luc alive, "No, come on, it’s gonna be fine, I’m gonna get help, okay? Just stay with me, stay with me. Look at me, okay? LOOK AT ME!!"

He gasped and said, "I love you, Tru."

Tru was crying hard, "No, please, please, no, Luc. Please, just stay with me, you’re gonna be fine!!"

Luc's eyes begin to glaze over and Tru was shaking him, "Look at me! Look at me, please…Luc! Luc? Luc, come on, just please don’t…don’t…!!!"

Slowly he stops gasping, and lies still. Tru dissolves into tears.

In Tru's memory, she's remembering seeing Luc in the coffin and the words of the minister... "…in sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life through our Lord. We commend to Almighty God, our brother. Luc Johnston. And we commit his body to the ground. Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. The Lord bless him and keep him. The Lord make his face to shine upon him, and be gracious unto him and give him peace. Amen"

The mourners file past Luc’s coffin one last time. Tru and Harrison reach the coffin, and Tru is leaning heavily on Harrison, crying into her handkerchief.

Harrison whispered to Tru, "I owe you my life sis. Thank you!........is there any chance that he’ll ask?"

Tru was crying and shaking her head, "Don’t know. Don’t think so Har"

They both turn around. Jack is standing across the cemetery, leaning on a tree and watching everyone. He makes eye contact with Tru and her hatred springs forth within her. She marches in Jack's direction with a purpose, and Harrison tried to stop her. But she ignored him and kept going

"Wait here" she told Harrison

Once she made it to where Jack was standing, he had his game face on, the one that shows no emotion. It's the only way he can continue doing what he does without going crazy

"I take no pleasure from being right Tru"

Tru was ready to spit nails and replied, "It’s my turn to talk, so listen up. My mother had the calling, and she passed it on to me. If you think for one minute that I am ever gonna stop, you’re wrong. So you’d better watch your back buddy," She started backing away and pointed a finger at him, ending with, "Because it’s ON!"

Jack stepped forward, hands in his pockets, "You should know one thing, Tru. THIS is bigger than you think"

"And YOU should know one thing, Jack. You have no idea what you’ve begun"

She walks back over to the funeral party, turning her back on Jack now. Jack turns and walks the other way, away from the funeral.

Tru kneels beside Luc’s coffin. She places a red rose across his chest. Then she kisses her fingers, and puts them against Luc’s cheek

(current day)

Tru is cussing Jack out with all she has, she tries to slap him and he holds on to her hands, not letting her

"How long did you say this takes??" Jack asked, hanging on to Tru's wrists and restraining her

"It WILL pass Jack. Hang on!!!"

Finally, Tru had raised up on her knees in her struggles, and she dissolved into tears, falling into Jack's arms crying.

"You can hold her Jack, just keep contact with her. Remember that...."

This is AWESOME!

[trucherrygirl]

Hi, Trina! I just want to compliment you on a brilliant Tru Calling fanfic! I'm not a fan of Smallville, but earlier I was looking for some Tru/Jack fics to read cuz there are never enough whenever I usually look, but then I found yours!! And I'm SO glad I did! I'll readily admit that I don't read a lot of R or NC-17 rated fanfics cuz as much as I love romance and erotic romance, some of the more graphic fics are not really my style. But your fanfic is an exception and I'm SO glad I just got thru reading everything you've posted thus far.

Your storyline is brilliant! I've written LOTS of Tru/Jack fanfic over the years, but they are totally different than the picture you painted here. Lately, I'm trying to bring Tru/Jack into a New Age/spirituality kind of light (as well as making my multi-chapter fics more psychologically romance based) and you have done just that and so much more with a vividly stunning portrayal of Life and Death experimenting with tantric sex and having to meet with the Oracle to determine how they really feel about one another. I love how the Oracle is making them look inside each of themselves and ride out their emotions as to get to the root of their tru* love for one another past the desire, past the lust, past the pain... it is all driven by a beautiful juxtaposition of emotions and emotional conflict.

Oh, and I especially LOVE Harrison disapproving of all of this when he says he doesn't want to see them get with the nasty! Perfect line for Harrison there! Poor lil bro... we know how unhappy he is about all this, but I hope that eventually he'll be able to look past it.

You have inspired me to keep working on my own Tru/Jack fics, which I love so much! Tru Calling is my #1 favorite TV show and Tru/Jack has been the best pair I have ever written for!

Oh, and when you're writing the flashback scene with Luc:
"Would it ring hollow to say I’m glad?"

"Would it ring hollow to say I don’t care?"

It should be "holla" not "hallow". Just FYI. ;)

Anyway, I hope this message finds you well and motivated to keep on writing! I can't wait to see what else you come up with here and I love how Jack is allowed to hold her now. I want to see him comfort her and tell her everything is gonna be OK. And even though you mentioned Tru being on the pill, I think they deserve a happy ending and I'd love to see Tru and Jack's offspring, especially a little girl! *squee*

UPDATE SOON!! :)

[Dana0715]

Jack finally calmed Tru down enough to where she was sitting in his lap crying and he was holding her

Not supposed to break a connection with her huh? Well, this should be easy enough with her in his lap

"You set him up you b@stard!" Tru's fist punched Jack on the shoulder. He looked at the Oracle and mouthed an "Ow!" at her, then spoke to Tru

"I screwed up Tru and I'm sorry. I don't know of any way to make it up to you. I can't bring Luc back, no matter how much I might want to."

She tried to get up and he wouldn't let her, the Oracle warning them again, "Don't lose contact!"

"Tru! Listen to me! If I could do it over again, Luc would have never been shot. I'm sorry! And I intend on proving that every day for the rest of my freakin' life, OK?"

"Why would you do that Jack?"

"Because I care more for you than any woman I've ever met."

They sat there staring at each other and the lust was starting again

"OK children, back to your own seats now.... no consumating the lust. We have to move on." The Oracle helped Tru back to her pillow, making sure Tru and Jack were still holding hands

Jack made a joke, "You know, my palms are getting sweaty over here."

There was no sympathy with the Oracle, "Deal with it Jack! Man up! A little sweat ain't gonna hurt ya."

Geez! This Oracle needs a sense of humor! Jack was thinking

"I heard that!" the Oracle gave Jack a stern look

He rolled his eyes, "Ok.... what next?"

The Oracle spoke to Tru, "Now Tru, look into Jack's eyes and tell him what you feel. Don't worry about hurting his feelings, he can take it. OK?"

When Tru stared into Jack's eyes, what she found there was..... acceptance and..... love? It made her stumble, she wasn't for sure what to say

"Tru.... dig deep into your heart and tell Jack what you feel. Let it all out."

"I did feel betrayed..... hurt, disillusioned. But I'm beginning to see that you didn't think you had a choice in the matter..."

"Can you forgive him Tru?" The Oracle asked, "And be honest."

"You want honest?" Tru asked, "I honestly don't know. Luc meant a lot to me."

"Tru, it's OK. It's hard to get past, I know it is." Jack told her, "I really wouldn't blame you if you never forgave me, but it would be really great if you eventually DID forgive me"

Finally, the Oracle lit another cigarette and was sitting on the couch watching closely. She gestured to Jack now

"Now dig past your lust again Jack.... dig deep. Look into Tru's eyes. What are you afraid of? I told you you had fear in your heart and you need to face up to it."

Jack stared into Tru's eyes and clung to her hands, digging deep like he was told to do

"Apparently I'm afraid that she will never forgive me. Like I said, I don't blame her..."

The Oracle was shrewd and said, "Jack..... I think you're greatest fear is that you're this evil person Tru originally thought you were. Or that you're becoming that person..... am I right?"

Jack doesn't normally cry, but he was fighting tears, "Yes." he said quietly

"Tru, what do you say to that?" the Oracle asked

"You're not evil Jack..... it took me a while to realize that. You hate this job but you were called to it. You've done what you thought you had to do. You're not evil and don't allow that thought into your mind."

That did more for Jack's ego than anything Tru has said to him since he met her. It's something he apparently needed to hear

He's not evil

The Oracle finally stood and said, "I think that's enough for tonight. Our bodies can handle only so much emotional upheaval. There's two more empty bedrooms down that hall..... go choose which ones you want and get some sleep."

As she was walking into the kitchen, she just called out to them, not turning around, "And if there's going to be more than just sleeping going on, try not to wake Harrison!"

Jack stood and helped Tru to her feet. He kissed her, surprising both of them at the move

"Thank you." Jack told her

"For what?" she asked

"For confirming I'm not an evil man. I needed to hear it.... more than you'll ever know."
