Abby and Conner's Flat-

Connor Temple concentrated on the ceiling fan blades as they slowly rotated above the dark room he called his own. The clock on the night stand next to his bed radiated 5:43 a.m. in bright red. He lay motionless reveling in the actions that had taken place earlier that night; he smiled and turned his head to stare at the petite blond sharing the bed with him. He couldn't think of any where else in the world he'd rather be than with the woman he'd just shared himself with.

Abby stirred and opened her eyes to Connor's staring back, she glanced quickly at the clock then back at him, "Good morning," she whispered with a smile in the dark.

Connor smiled back, "How'd you sleep?" he whispered back, knowing she had slept soundly for several hours.

Before she could reply, both of their cell phones went off to a call from Danny.

"Hello?" Connor answered.

"We got one," Danny said.

"Anything come through?" Connor asked hoping the answer would be no.

"Not that we can tell, but you better get down here incase something does," Danny said.

"Be there in a bit," Connor said with a sigh. He turned to Abby who had commenced to crawl out of his bed. She wrapped the large sheet around her torso, as she walked through the door; she turned around and smiled at him then disappeared to the living area of the flat that they shared.

Anomaly Location-

Connor and Abby arrived at the top of a cascading cliff swarming with A.R.C. patrol and the rest of the team. The sky was clear and just starting to light up from the sun rise; Connor looked around but didn't see anything, "What's going on? Where's the Anomaly?" He asked walking up to Danny who motioned them to follow him to the edge of the cliff, he pointed over the edge at a large ball of what looked like floating shards of glass surrounding a bright yellow light.

"It appeared about an hour ago, so far no reports of anything unusual," Becker explained walking up behind them, "But that doesn't mean anything, we could be dealing with an infected mosquito or something like that."

"I think if anything came through we'd know about it by now," Abby said shoving each of her hands in either pocket on the butt of her jeans.

"Just to be sure though, we should probably lock it," Connor announced stepping past Becker as he searched for the Anomaly Locking Mechanism.

"I'll help," Abby chimed as she followed him. A group of A.R.C. workers unloaded a large machine from the back of one of the surrounding vans and placed it, where Connor instructed, at the edge of the cliff face. Connor immediately got to work on powering it up.

Abby leaned in close at he worked on it, "I had fun last night," she said in a low whisper so only Connor could hear.

A smile spread across Connor's face, he turned toward her so their lips were nearly touching, "So did I," he said. The Anomaly Locking Mechanism beeped causing him to look up, "Ready!" he announced. He hesitantly looked over the edge of the cliff to line the machine up with the Anomaly. Feeling slightly dizzy and unsure about how safe it was to be that close to the edge, he quickly backed away from what he assumed would be his impending doom, causing several rocks to fall, and took Abby with him.

He grabbed the remote control and moved to press the button when a rather large bird landed on the end of the machine causing it to look away from its target. "C'mon!" Connor protested throwing his arms wide to show his disapproval. The bird, looking like it had completed its purpose of landing on the machine, flew away.

"Just go fix it," Danny suggested, everyone looked at Connor as if it were his job.

"Why's everybody gotta look at me?" He griped. Knowing he would never win this argument, he hesitantly approached the edge of the cliff to re-align the machine with the Anomaly.

He approached the cliff edge very slowly, there were several loose rocks that he knew might jar loose causing him to slip and fall. Abby joined him, she held on to his right arm as his left arm reached for the end of the machine to re-align it. It re-aligned quite easily; they both backed away from the loose rocks and headed back to join the others.

The large bird flew at Connor as if angered and proceeded to peck and claw at his head. Connor shielded his face and tried to shoe the bird away, unaware that he was backing to the edge of the cliff. "Get off!" He yelled as he swatted.

"Stand still!" Becker yelled to Connor as he lined up his site with the bird and pulled the trigger. But it was too late, as the bird was hit with the bullet from Becker's gun; Connor fell over the edge of the cliff.

"Connor!" Abby yelled rushing to the edge, hoping to look over and see Conner hanging from a protruding root or rock. He was not hanging from a protruding root or rock; he was also not falling to his death. She watched as he disappeared through the Anomaly, which fluxed and disappeared as soon as he was through. Abby was ready to jump over the edge after him, but was held back by Becker who pulled her away from the edge.

Abby's heart felt like it had been ripped from her chest and rolled over by a steam roller then eaten by a T-Rex. How would she live without Connor, the man she had confessed her love to the night before? She knew she would never love anyone with the same intensity she loved him with. She was unsure if she'd ever love again.
