Chapter 1

Arc hallway

Captain Hilary Becker went to see Jess parker. She always loved to chat and always managed to brighten up his day and every since he was put on medical leave he had missed her However when he did get to her office she wasn't there. The computer screens were on and showNew Storying the whereabouts of the team. They were in a shopping centre were an anomaly had opened. Becker could see Matt's, Emily's and Abby's positions and was that... No it couldn't be his eyes must have been deceiving him because it said Jess was out in the field. Jess never went out on the field. Never! Lester had some explaining to do!

Lester's office

Lester waited. He had heard Becker had come to visit Jess, Which would mean that he would soon be barging without knocking. 3…2…1…

''LESTER!'' Becker shouted.

''Why, why Captain Becker. What a surprise!'' Although you could tell by the way he said it he wasn't surprised and in no way pleased.

'' Where is Jess? She's not at the computers and it says she's in the field but that can't be right!''

'' Miss parker kindly offered to take your place in the field as you were still on medical leave and she did not want you to be disturbed.''

Becker went mental. It was his fault jess was in the field. ''But-but, s-she's inexperienced! What if she got hurt?'' Please don't let her get hurt.

Lester looked at him. Hmm… it seemed Captain Becker had a thing for young miss parker. Interesting. ''I know miss parker is inexperienced but she is good with people, getting them not to panic; which is what we needed. And as for injury miss parker knows the dangers of the job''

''That's notˉˉˉ'' However Becker did not get to finish that sentence as the Arc alarm sounded. Members of the team had been injured in the field, including Jess.
