[Ricky's POV]

"Uncle Chris!! Uncle Ricky!" I heard a familiar voice shout.

I smiled as Snow ran over to us, Chris catching her and holding her in a hug.

"Haha, there's my favorite kiddo, already at double digits," he laughed as he held her.

I smiled when I noticed the headmistress of her school had walked up with Snow's friends.

"Mr. Cerulli, Mr. Olson, its good to see you again," she smiled.

"Nice to see you, too, Headmistress Langdon," I smiled.

"Headmistress, that bum is by the gates again," Margo said, pointing over to bear the gates.

We noticed some homeless man staring at us, mostly in Chris's direction.

"And he keeps staring at Snow," Bailey said, worriedly.

The headmistress groaned. "I thought he was already shooed out. Security!" she called out.

"Wait, that guy's been staring at Snow?" I asked the headmistress.

"The children came to me about this earlier. That's why I decided to accompany them to you, for their safety. He just showed up out of no where," She said.

We watched as security shooed him away, Chris holding Snow protectively.

"Thank you for telling us this. We'll be sure to tell this to her parents," I said.

"I understand. Though do any of you know him?" She asked.

Everyone shook their heads. "Never seen him in our lives."

"I'll be increasing security around the school, but if we are dealing with a possible predator, I have to alert the authorities," she said.

"Don't worry. I'm sure he's just another homeless man, but I know our friends would want their kids to be safe," Chris said as he put Snow down, holding his arm around her as she stared in direction of where the homeless man was being shooed off, being threatened by the school guard that the police will be called.

"I'll see to it that Snow, Margo, and Bailey are in safe hands," she said.

"Thank you. Now, we should get going, since its someone's birthday," I smiled as Snow blushed.

Headmistress Langdon smiled. "Very well then. Happy birthday, Snow. Have a great time," she said.

"Thank you, headmistress. Bye," Snow said as we left, Bailey and Margo close to us.

"Why would a bum be after Snow?" I asked Chris as the kids climbed into his car.

"Beats me, but Balz is gonna flip," he said.

"So long as Snow is safe, we can all rest easy," I said, as we were all in the car and left.

[Ryan Ashley's POV]

"Thank you again for coming. Nice meeting you," I smiled as a customer/fan left with what she bought.

Its a busy day today, but we are still going to be there for Snow's birthday dinner.

Still can't believe its already been 10 years.

Right when I was going to ring up another person, Eryn called from the back.

"Hey, Ryan! Phone for you, its important!" She called.

"Josh! Take over, I'll be back!" I called, and he rushed over as I went to get the phone.

"Hello?" I asked as I spoke.

"Good afternoon, is this Ryan Malarkey?" a voice said.

"Yes, who is this?" I asked.

"I'm calling from the FBI offices in Pittsburgh. This is about the case concerning the Jane Doe woman found 10 years ago by your shop."
