Derek was glad to hear from Julia. "Nothing much," he admitted. "We've
been doing some research on the object they went after. It would be easier
if we had it here, but we are making a bit of progress. I had hoped it
might tell us something helpful..." he stopped as Julia spoke his name the
urgency catching his attention immediatly. Then the line went dead.
"Julia! Julia!" Oh God....this was supposed to be something so easy, what
had happened? HE told himself not to panic, cells cut off all the time. He
dialed her number, looking over at Nick and Alex, "she was cut off."
Nick clenched his jaw and stood, Alex looking at them both, worry in her
gaze.
"Where did she go?" Nick asked, ready to go and back up Derek and already
heading toward the cabinet that held personal recievers that would keep them
in constant contact with the Control Room and coming over to give Derek a
set, keeping the other for himself.
