I don't own any of the original TV characters. Jessica Jameson is mine and any one else I make up along the way. But the originals belong to those who created the TV series Bionic Woman and The Six Million Dollar Man.
Chapter One
A beautiful Ojai summers evening had just settled in as Jaime Sommers relaxed on her couch after a long week of teaching at the military base school.
"Now this is perfection," Jaime said as she lifted a bowl dish into her lap, filled to the brim with ice cream. Just as Jaime was about to take her first spoonful the phone rang.
"Oh come on!" Jaime groaned as she reached for the phone behind her and lifted the receiver.
"Hello?" Jaime said in her most pleasant telephone voice.
"Jaime!" A sharp voice replied from which Jaime knew exactly who was calling.
"Hi Oscar. You do realise what time it is and what day?" Jaime asked sarcastically as she pushed her spoon around the ice-cream bowl in her lap.
"I'm sorry to bother you Jaime on this Friday night at 8p.m. but I need your help." Oscar's tone turned from light to serious in a fraction of a second.
"Alright Oscar, I'm listening, what's going on?" Jaime placed her bowl on the coffee table in front of her and sat back making herself comfortable to listen to what Oscar Goldmann had to say.
"Jaime, I have an assignment for you, but due to its nature I can't discuss it over the phone. Jaime, I need you to come down to HQ here in California."
"Alright Oscar, when do you need me to come in?" Jaime asked hoping against hope that Oscar would allow her, her weekend off.
"Sorry kiddo. I need you here tomorrow, ASAP. This may possibly be the toughest assignment I have given you but we believe you're the best person for the job." At that point Jaime sat forward on her couch, suspicion arising.
"We Oscar? Who's we?"
"I'll have all the explanations and answers you need tomorrow Jaime. I'll speak to you then. Good night babe." With that the phone line went dead.
"No Oscar wait! Well good night to you to Mr Goldmann. I wonder what's so important that can't wait until Monday?" Jaime said aloud to herself as she placed the phone receiver back on its cradle and back on the table behind the couch. Jaime turned back to her bowl of ice cream, which was beginning to puddle into a creamy liquid. Sighing Jaime picked up the bowl got up from her couch and walked over to her kitchenette and placed the dish of liquid ice cream into the sink.
"Tomorrow's going to be a long day so I'd better get an early night!"
Jaime washed and rinsed her dishes and went to bed. Glimpsing at her bedside clock as she climbed into bed Jaime saw that it was only 9p.m.
"All I need now is a couple of cats and I really will be an old spinster cat lady!" With that Jaime turned off the lights laid back and did her best to fall asleep which didn't seem to take too long, it had been a hard week at school after all.
