Ok, so I really just LOVE stories like Vengeance, Another Climb, and Ten Letter Word for Murder that bring up Shawn's mysterious past (especially his 'Road Trip'), so my challenge for you is to have Shawn get into some situation through which people find out about some great and terrible secret from his past. He may have once been a cop, or been kidnapped, or been in jail, or in a hostage situation, but whatever it was, no one knew about it and now that its come back up, Shawn must be reluctant to talk about it. Preferably have Shawn also turn out to have some unforeseen skills. Angst, humor, and hurt/comfort must abound and somewhere in the story, someone must get whumped on and, when asked how they are, reply 'Just Pineappley.' Brownie points for either Shawn whump or for it coming from a concussed Henry or Lassie-face. Good luck and please reply! Your awesome stories will be greatly appreciated. I even swear to review and read every single one of your other stories if you do this and respond to any challenges you've made :P Have fun!Oh, and I don't care how long it is, just try to finish it eventually so you don't leave me in the undying anguish of not knowing.

In the pilot, Karen Vick tells Shawn that his case will remain open until she sees resonable proof that this 'psychic' bit was real. 

What if she never closed it and finds out that Shawn was lying?  Write a story about it!  No rules except using this subject!  Have at it!
