J's POV
"What should I do for the others?" I pondered while walking across town to find Petra.
Later I found her outside of her house practicing some combat on an armor stand with a pumpkin on top of it.
"Hey! That just like the armor stand Jesse and I used to practice on back in our tree house." I laughed as I remembered when I did most of the fighting and Jesse would read, write, and draw in her books.
"Really?", Petra asked with some disbelief while leaning on her enchanted gold sword.
"Yeah, really, at least before our tree house was destroyed by the witherstorm." I sighed.
"What if you guys' tree house wasn't destroyed and it's still out in the forest somewhere?" Petra exclaimed with some excitement.
"Even if that was true, where would we look?"
"We could start by looking towards the East side of the forest outside of town and work our way out from there." Petra suggested,
"Are you in?" she asked while holding out a gloved hand.
"Sure" I responded while shaking her hand.
"If it's still out there someplace, it could be our gift to Jesse and, sort of, you." Petra smiled.
"Then let's get to it, we'll grab some supplies in case it gets dark and start looking once we leave town." I requested and we both grinned at each other and left to prepare.

Petra's POV
"What a great idea we have to go find Jesse and J's old home" I thought while packing some food and extra torches into a saddle on the side of the horses J and I were going to ride out on.
"But we have to be careful when leaving town so we don't rile up suspicion" I thought while waiting by my house.
After a few minutes, J finally showed up and placed a saddle on the side of another horse and we left. As we began to hurry the horses out of the town's gates, Axel and Olivia approached us.
"Where are you guys off to in a hurry?" Olivia questioned while cocking an eyebrow at our horses and full saddles.
"We're just going on a fun horse ride through the forest," J lied while grinning nervously and sweating slightly.
"Keep it together J!" I mentally yelled.
"Do you really expect us to believe that J?" Axel questioned.
"J, we've been best friends since we were kids, we know when your lying," Olivia reminded J while crossing her arms.
"Ok, ok, you got us" I grunted, "We're going to look for J and Jesse's old tree house to see if it's still out in the forest somewhere."
"Then we're coming with you guys", Olivia declared while slinging a bag over her shoulder that looked like it was full of stuff.
"Yeah, we want to help find your old home dude," Axel restated while looking directly at J.
"Okay!" I whined while Axel rode with J and Olivia rode with me, "But promise you won't tell Jesse or the others"
"We promise," Axel and Olivia repeated in unison.
"Then let's go!" J shouted and he snapped the reins and the horses ran off leaving the gates to close behind us.
