She went into her office and Connor was there waiting for her. Jenny looked at him and said "Good morning Connor." "Morning Jenny. I just came here to tell….." Connor paused a moment and beamed with joy. He couldn't stop smiling and continued "You were right with Abby. Thank you." Jenny smiled back at Connor and then she glanced at the ground and said "Yeah I wish I would have been right with Cutter too." Connor looked questioning at Jenny. She sensed that and lifted her head.

After that she told him "Never mind" Connor sighed and stated "Okay then… I will go back.. to work." Then Connor left her office.

Later that day

Cutter was in his office. He was sitting at his desk when Sarah entered it. Cutter lifted his head and explained "I have made a new prediction and I want you to check it out. I believe that the anomaly will appear in an indoor swimming pool. Take Jenny and Becker with you." Sarah stepped closer to Cutter and kissed him on his cheek. After that they smiled at each other.

Jenny was on her way into the kitchen when she passed Cutters office and saw Sarah kissing Cutter on his cheek. Then Sarah ran into Jenny with a big smile upon her face and said "Guess what! Cutter made a new prediction and I can go with you and Becker." "Good I will inform Becker and Danny. In 10 minutes at the car."

10 minutes later they were all sitting in Jenny's car and were driving to the indoor swimming pool. The swimming pool was both inside and outside. Jenny turned to Sarah and asked "Did Cutter said where the anomaly would exactly be?" Sarah shook her head and Jenny murmured "Of course not." Becker looked at Jenny and proposed "I will search with Sarah inside and you and Danny search outside." Jenny replied "Agreed" and then she and Danny went outside.

They searched for more than 2 hours but they didn't find anything. No creature. No anomaly. They decided to go back to the ARC

Back at the ARC

Cutter was waiting in his office for the team to return. Finally they arrived. Cutter walked to main hall and then he asked Jenny "Was there an anomaly or not? Why didn't you call me?" It was Danny who answered Cutter by saying "There was no anomaly we searched everywhere." The expression on Cutters face did not bode well. He did get angry and he screamed at Danny "You searched everywhere? I guess you were just philandering and flirting with Jenny." It was clear that Cutter was jealous. He thought that Jenny would be there with Sarah and Becker but he was mistaken.

Before anybody could say anything the anomaly alert sounded. But is was false alarm. Connor was just testing the sound.

After that everybody applied themselves to their work. Jenny was surprised by Cutter because he was able to memorize her name. She thought to herself Maybe there is hope. He was obviously jealous. Maybe I should give it another try.

With those thoughts she went into his office. The door was open and she leaned against the doorframe. Cutter was in front of his prediction board. He couldn't believe that he was wrong. He was deeply in thoughts and he noticed Jenny only when she cleared her throat. Cutter turned around and stared at her. Jenny crossed her arms and in a angry way she said "You really made a scene Cutter. That was unnecessary." Then she was cut off by him "I really have to work Jenny." Cutter had no intension to talk to her. Especially not about the way he performed earlier. Jenny already regretted that she went to him. She grumbled "Fine" and left his office.

Few weeks later

Connor tried to invent a closing mechanisms. He was working day and night. Now he was sure that this equipment would be able to close the anomalies. Connor was about to soldering two cables with each other when Abby showed up. She did give him a soft kiss on his lips and then she whispered in his ear "I am proud of you." Connor smiled at her and confessed "I am not sure that it will work." Abby tried to ease Connors tension and told him "I am sure that it will work."

Then Cutter, Sarah, Jenny, Lester, Danny and Becker gathered around Connor. Connor started to explain what he invented. Especially Lester was happy to hear of a machine that closes anomalies. Lester turned to Connor and he admonished Connor "I hope it does what you promise Connor." Connor took a deep breath and sighed "I am sure… that it will work." "Very well then." were Lester's word and then he left the others and went into his office.

Danny stepped closer to Connor and touched the closing machine and said "This little thing will close an anomaly." Connor smiled nervously and replied "In theory yeah."

Then the anomaly alert sounded and Connor packed the closing machine into a bag when Cutter said "I need to take a look at it before you use it Connor." Before Connor could say a thing it was Danny who asked Cutter "Why? Either it'll work or it won't work. We will see that." Cutter held Connor back from going with the bag and he said "We haven't test it. It is too dangerous." Then Jenny had enough of that she stepped right in front of Cutter and in a angry tone she clarified "We will take the closing machine with us and we will see if it will work or not. You can come with us or you can stay here and be paranoid Cutter." Cutter nodded a bit and without another word he left the others. Then they were driving to the airport where the anomaly was.

Before they saw anything they could her a creature roaring in a loud and frightened way.
