[Prologue]

-Abby's Point Of View-

I was looking at this strain of disease that we had found in the system of a Megantereon that had recently tried to eat Matt and Becker.

I had never seen anything like this before, it was almost like the virus was morphing the red blood cells – while somehow leaving the red blood cell as they were.

Looking up from the microscope I looked into the main room where Becker and Jess were standing at a table – looking over some papers and laughing together.

I smiled at them, in many ways they reminded me of Connor and I when we first started getting to know one another – there was something there but both of us were too scared to make a move. I just hope that it doesn't take Becker and Jess being stranded in the Cretaceous period for them to finally admit their feelings for one another.

My mobile rang, looking at the screen I saw it was Connor, turning from what I was doing, I left the room to go and talk to him in private.

-Becker's Point Of View-

Still smiling from the joke Jess had just cracked I made my way to Abby's lab, I wanted to ask her if she had figured out anything about why that saber tooth cat had gone ballistic on Matt and I.

Frowning I saw that her lab was empty; out of habit I scanned the desks. Sitting next to the microscope was a black box with a yellow dot on the bottom of it.

I smiled cheekily when I saw it. Jess had been all uptight because she couldn't find it. I told her it would show up at some point.

I made my way to pick it up, not looking were I was walking I tripped over Abby's satchel. I threw my hand out to steady myself… my hand landed half on the table – half on the microscope.

I felt something wet touch my finger tips and I pulled back my hand steadying myself… I had knocked off the slide from under the microscope. Muttering crossly to myself I set the microscope where it had been, putting the slide back under it.

I picked up the black box and headed back to where Jess was working.
