You sure?

Cindy smiles as Wes joins her, and leans on his shoulder. "Yeah...it's gorgeous out here....makes me think spring is actually gonna come." She sighs with content. "My friend who's been house sitting called me yesterday to see how things were... she asked how much longer I'd be away..."

Wyatt's eyes widen and he sits down next to Katie, laying a hand on her shoulder. "Hey, hey, calm down, it's alright." He searches her eyes, questioning what's happening, and his own fear entering in. "It's Jason? He's in trouble?"
Trooper comes up and licks Katie's face, giving a little whine.


Carter hangs up the phone and shouts to Reese. "Hey, get a hold of Todd right away. See what's happening up there!"

Reese opens Carter's door, confused. "I just got off the phone with him. Everything is fine. Why? What's wrong?"

Carter picks up his phone again. "Katie just called me. She said Jason was in trouble." He pauses, until someone answers the other end. "Yeah, Todd. Where's Jason? Uh-huh...okay. No...not yet. Thanks." He ends the call and picks up again to dial Katie back. "Katie...it's Carter. Listen, Jason's up in Alaska off-case. I just called the guys up there and they said Jason went out with the dog sled a while ago to pick up supplies, but everything was fine. Why did you think something was wrong?"


Jason tries to move again as the snow piles up around him. He winces as the tree trunk digs into his legs. One of the dogs whines and stands to pace nervously, not knowing what to do.
