The small group of people stood in front of the swirling portal.
"Its the same place maybe they will come back?" the young man with black hair asked trying to put hope in the situation. But they all knew the reality of it Nick Cutter , Tomas Ryan and Helen had walked through the anomaly six months ago and hadn't returned the only explanation possible was that they were dead. Suddenly the anomaly started to fluctuate and quickly closed . The team stood in silence as they relied that their was no possible hope that the team members would return.

Claudia stood in the home office waiting for the others to get back. Checking her mobile she felt her heart sink as no new calls from Stephan had been made. The man had promised to call her if anything had happened. It had been six months since she saw Nick leave this time to bring the future predators back to their time. Six months since her feeling for the Scotsmen had been made public. Her thoughts were interrupted when the group of people entered the main lobby. One look at them and she knew nothing had happened
"No predators came through ." Stephan told Lester. And Claudia tried not to show any pain as the words came
"So I assume that no one came through." Lester said curtly he didn't need an answer the look on his audiences face was enough. Taking a breath he continued "So theirs nothing we can do. We have to assume that their dead. Claudia I'll leave you in charge of notifying the families "

Claudia sat in her office with Nicks papers his mothers number and address sat on her desk but she couldn't' bring herself to call her. A knock at the door gave Claudia a much needed distraction. Telling the person to come in she smiled as Abby entered the room.
"Hey." the younger woman said quietly the streaked eye makeup implied that she had done a lot of crying. "So how are you doing?"
"I have to tell Ni Cutters mum that her son is dead and I can't even give her a body!" Claudia exclaimed voice cracking
"Claudia you don't have to say Cutter anymore we all saw you.' Abby said. She's right Claudia though running up and Kissing your co-worker didn't scream professional relationship. "So" Abby continued "Were you and him like friendly? Or do you just randomly kiss each other. ?" Claudia found herself smile even in the situation
"No we weren't together if that's what you mean Abby." Claudia answered sadly.
"But you wanted to be." Abby said and it was that simple sentence that brought Claudia to realization she had wanted to be closer to the professor.
"Yeah." Claudia whispered
"You loved him." Abby said and Claudia just nodded number one way to leave the woman who loves you go get trapped in a prehistoric era.. She thought bitterly sighing Claudia spoke again
"I just can't bring myself to believe that he's gone. How can I tell his mum that if I don't believe it?" By now she allowed the tears that had been pent up in her eyes fall.
"Maybe we can do something?" Abby spoke suddenly
"We can't just go to the Permian and ask a dinosaur!" Claudia snapped but felt immediately bad for
"No but we can go to the Permian." the two exchanged looks before realizing what that meant. and quickly stood up and hurried out of the office.
