Tracie looked at Marion with wide eyes, her mouth partially open, and her cheeks a bit pink. "Huh? I was always told I looked like my mother... then again, all the pics of Pops were black and white and Dad looked more like Gram-Gram."
"Hold on a second, what am I missing here?" Marcus asked indignantly.
"I never properly intoduced myself, did I? Mr. Brody, I'm Tracie Jones, but you can call me 'Toboe' if you like!"
"J-Jones?"

Indy raised his hand, "Now don't get yourself worked up Marcus... just sit tight." With a deep sigh, disbelief still lingering, he looked Toboe in the eye, "... She says she's my granddaughter... and the only way that's possible... is.. impossible..." Shaking his head, Indy pointed at Toboe's bracelet, "This.... really is Seth's band... But that added silver... and the inscriptions placed around it... That was added later... because it was added in another place in time..." He paused, swearing up and down in his head that this was just impossible. Finally, and with an indifference in his voice that would impress one of the 'Queen's Guard', he muttered ".....She's a time-traveler...."

"Duuuuhhhhhh, I could have told you that," Tracie replied indignantly, "I'm your kin for Christ's sake!" A snarky comment like that would have resulted in a smack to the head from her great-grandfather.
"Time travel? Incredible," Marcus breathed, "So is what she says true, Indiana? You believe it too, don't you Marion?"

Jones suddenly had his hand an inch from her face, pointer finger touching her forehead, "Don't take that tone with me kid... in case you forgot..." His voice dropped to an almost sarcastic whisper, "I'm still your Grandpa."
With that he turned around and exited the car, taking his jacket with him. "Marion... Get somewhere safe... Me and Marcus are gonna fly to England alone... and keep Toboe under control would you?"
On mentioning the girl's name he turned to her and said, "You listen to Marion. Got that?"

Tracie's heart lurched and she blushed. "Pops...." And then:
"Sorry, but I'm not going anywhere! I want to help you find the spear more than ever now! I never heard this story from you and I want in! 'Sides, I bet that 'Heidrich' guy or whatever is gunning for me too now. I can take care of myself, but I'm leaving you!" She turned to Marion, "PLEASE Gram-Gram! Let him take me with him!!"
Marcus chuckled, "My my, seems like someone has their hands full. She's independent this one is! Takes after you well, Indy, I can see why she's a Jones!"

Marion got out of the car quickly and shook her head. "Oh no! I'm coming, too! Someone has to make sure you two keep out of trouble," she said, placing her hands on her hips. She then turned to Tracie. "If this girl's going you're not leaving me behind!"

Said girl lept out of her seat and locked her arms around Marion's neck in an embrace. "I won't call you 'Gram-Gram' if you don't want me too. I can already tell Indy gets uncomfortable when I call him 'Pops'!"

Marion laughed a bit. "Well, it does sound a little weird since I'm not an old lady," she then looked to Indy then back at Tracie. "Wait a second," she said, just realizing something. "If I'm your grandmother then that means..." she then looked at Indy and blushed deeply.

Indy immediately knew he had to put a stop to this, "Whoa! Whoawhoawhoa! Time out!..." His hands raised high in the universal T-shape. He shook his head and pointed at Toboe, "... You. Get back in the car. And Marion...." He pointed at her, paused then resumed, forcing himself to look at her with a casual air, "You get her somewhere safe and keep her under control."

"You sir, are no fun at ALL!" Tracie snorted. If she really wanted to, she would have thrown a fit.
Marcus stuck his head out from a back window, "So it's clear then? Dr. Jones and I are to go to London and Marion and the girl stay here?"
"I'm not agreeing to that," Toboe growled to herself, "Not without a fight..."

"Why do we have to stay here? Can't we at least go to London with you and then we could stay in the hotel?" Marion asked, being just as stubborn. "For Pete's sake, Indy. If we stay here, they'll no doubt come after us. And then what?"

Fists clenching Indy growled, "Why do women... Rrggh." They had a point. A painfully obvious and good point. I hate it when they do that.... He fidgeted and moved as if he was about to pace, but couldn't seem to move his feet. I REALLY hate it when they do that!
Finally, and silently, Indy marched between both girls and climbed into the driver's seat. As he leaned back in the seat he mumbled to himself, "I'm gonna regret this..."
Before they could say a word in protest, raised his hand and called, "Let's go Ladies! We got a plane to catch!"

"WAHOO!" Toboe cartwheeled back into the car and hugged Marcus, causing him to turn his face bright red.
"O-Oh dear! This is going to be a long trip..."

((*flails* GOMEN-NASAI!~ D8))
Marion grinned happily, knowing she would win. She climbed in the passanger seat next to Indy and nodded. "Well, let's get going."
