New Paths to Follow
Chapter Eighth
Doctor Elfem Robbs had caught a flight three hours later after gathering all of the intel from the scans taken from the telescope for when the supposed meteorites had crashed landed in the ice basin six. His wife Ann had packed his things along with having called the airlines.
He had carried the silver container with the scans. While waiting for the flight and the pilots to arrive. There were a lot of passengers walking around along with the P.A. system telling the passengers about particular flights arriving and leaving.
He had called his wife ANN at home waiting for his call. His wife a scientist herself for the past 30 years working for N.A.S.A. and a private company into putting together possible private space flights. With the success of the Mars rover and other vehicles.
Ann aged 61 years old with two older boys both studying to be doctors in the field of space science following their parents. She was studying a report on the latest U.F.O. reports. Even though the Space Alliance having been developed by Darien and the Nelson Institute. They have no idea where they might be or whatever their reasons.
And now with her husband heading for Santa Barbara, California, and the Nelson Institute in regard to the crystalline alien having been found and possibly in the Alaska ice basin. She had placed her cell phone near the chair she was sitting in the library of their house.
She was getting anxious needing to go to bed having been up extremely early. When all of a sudden her husband's number was on the caller I.D. "Efrem how are you doing with waiting for the flight?" she had to say with sipping her bottled water.
"Anxious like yourself dear with wishing to head for bed. I will be leaving in about 30 minutes with the flight getting ready for the passengers. Admiral Harriman Nelson is going to be most pleased with the scans taken awhile back on those crystallines?" he said with an exhaled of his lungs.
"Let's hope so Efrem. I will hate to see his science friends die inside the ice basin while the rescue ships are on the way?" she says with emotion.
"How well I know it, Ann. Listen I will call you when I get in with a voicemail. No need for me to wake you needing your rest and that conference of yours?" he replied with saying good night. "Love you, dear," he said after 30 years of marriage.
She will say it back to him as well before hanging up with placing the phone back into place and her files before heading out to upstairs and the bed calling her to sleep.

Nelson Institute LAB
The crystalline creature had wakened with Admiral Nelson and Commander Rose Marie Baskins waiting and watching for any changes in the electrical stimulation from the alien's brain.
The universal translator was online and the alien was sending out signals to those of the ice basin. They had been hugging against the ice basin caverns and lake inside. Even though the scientists were thinking of sending some type of a small rowboat to see what was on the other side of the lake.
However, the leader Tofodine receiving the electrical images from one of the crystallines telling him the truth with hopefully getting help from the humans.
Nelson was sitting at a desk working with his project when all of a sudden he heard the crystalline calling out to him with the use of the universal translator.
"Admiral Nelson my people understand and will try to help your friends inside the ice basin," he says to him with the raise of his eyebrow like Mister Spock of the original Star Trek series.
"And how are you're people are going to be doing to save them Tofodine?" he needed to know the answer.
"There is a way to cover your friends especially Doctor John Waters and his wife Samantha with oxygen until long enough until the rescue team to arrive. Our people have a way of doing this. However, it might be a little scary at first with the humans being covered in a film of sorts covering their bodies and placing them into a state of sleep with their breathing at a minimal." he will say to the admiral.
"I will need your people to let my friends know this. But how is this possible to do this without scaring them completely?" Nelson looked down at his paperwork wondering if the alien was able to understand what he was asking.

ICE BASIN
The crystalline was able to make contact with Doctor John Waters by writing a message on the ice. Even though enough for him to understand and explain it to his wife and friends.
"Are you serious?" In unison by those to think clearly due to the lack of oxygen inside the bubble.
"All I know everyone this is the only way to save our lives until the rescue teams arrive to get us out of here and these aliens are in contact with Admiral Nelson to save our lives," John said to the group and his wife Samantha.
"For how long John?" Samantha had to say on the subject trying not to be scared.
"Good question. I have no idea at the moment. However, I am to understand these aliens will be protecting us." he cried out with his lungs having a problem with getting oxygen into his lungs. "Do we all agree?" he had to ask with the agreement from everyone's head and including his own wife. "Okay, I will let them know now," he commented.
Moments later the crystalline understood the humans as they came off the walls to head for all of them to be standing against an ice wall. This is where they will be standing like a cocoon until the rescue team arrives.
