Chapter 1

It was a dark and rainy night and U.S. Marshal Jack Carter was driving along a road in the middle of nowhere trying to get to L.A. In the backseat of the police cruiser he had held his 14-year-old daughter who had tried to runaway. He was now lost in the middle of nowhere trying to get back to L.A. to deliver his daughter to his ex-wife. His daughter's constant complaining droning in the background as he tried to find his way back to a highway. As he drove his mind wandered to what he should be doing instead of carting his daughter around.

If I were home right now I could be getting ready for bed, and calling my lovely wife to say good night. I wonder if I should try to call her now. Nah, not with Zoe here. I still have to tell her that I got remarried. Well her running away kind of derailed that conversation for a while. But then again I've been remarried for almost three years now. So that really doesn't justify why I haven't told her yet.

Jack's thoughts followed this train of thought until he saw a pair of headlights barreling right at him. He swerved violently to avoid crashing into the on coming vehicle. With the momentum of the swerve the police cruiser went right into a ditch.

"Zoe are you injured?" Jack asked his daughter as he checked himself for any thing.

"No, but—" That was all Zoe was able to say before her dad cut her off.

"That's good. Now were you able to get a look at the car that just ran us off the road?"

"Thanks for the concern for my well being Dad," Zoe said in a sarcastic voice. "Yeah, I saw who it was. It was us."

Jack looked at her confused wondering if maybe she had hit her head in the crash.

"That's impossible Zoe."

Pushing the thought of whatever it was that nearly crashed into them Jack got out of the car and proceeded to pull Zoe out. Making sure he had his badge and wallet he picked a direction and started to walk. Dragging a reluctant Zoe behind him along the way.

I wander what Jo will think of this little adventure when I tell her.

Meanwhile in a little town called Eureka

Josephina Lupo better know as "Jo" by everyone in the small town of Eureka was currently in bed starring at her phone waiting for it to ring so she could say good night to her husband of three years. It was hard being apart for so long, but they both had demanding jobs that they both loved, and so they sacrificed being together all the time to keep their jobs. It had been about a month since they last were together. Jo wondered where Jack could be. His last message to her had something to do with his 14-year-old daughter, who she had yet to meet.

Knowing she had work in the morning Jo finally gave up waiting for the call and fell asleep. As she drifted off to sleep she plotted her revenge on Carter for standing her up on their nightly ritual.

X Well that's all I have for tonight. Hope to update soon. Please RnR. Also how do you think Jo and Jack should have met? I'm kind of leaning toward them meeting through Jack being friends with one of Jo's brothers. And they run into each other at some get together.

I am a college student so posting will be sporadic.
