Alex had watched Jen and Wes making love with tears in his eyes. He watched
as they fell asleep in each other's arms. Then he crept stealthily over to
where they lay and pulled out a small spray bottle.
"I'm sorry Jen." He whispered spraying the sleep inducers into Wes' face first and then into Jen's. He dressed Jen and picked her up. He took one last look at Wes and headed for the black SUV parked just at the base of the gardens on an access road. He laid Jen in the back seat and covered her with a blanket. Then he went around behind the SUV and opened the tailgate. There was a holoscreen already lit and waiting for him. Captain Logan stood there waiting for him. "I have Jen and will meet the time ship at the appointed place sir."
"All right, the memory adaptation room will be at your disposal."
"Thank you sir." He answered saluting.
"Well done Alex."

Wes rolled onto his back his head was throbbing.
"Jen?" He said hoarsely putting an arm out to where she should be. Realizing she wasn't there he turned to look for her.
"JEN!" He cried. He looked to see if the wheelchair was still there, it was.
"Oh no!" he said scrambling to his feet and pulling his clothes on quickly. He took one last look around the garden and ran for the house.
"They're late again." Dana said looking at her watch.
"Well Wes told me he had a romantic dinner planned for the two of them." Carter said smiling at her.
"Just like a man." She said throwing a towel at him.
"What?" Carter said innocently.
Wes burst into the small gym breathing heavily. He fell to the floor panting. The other rangers rushed to his side.
"Wes are you all right." Dana asked instinctively reaching to check his pulse. It was abnormally fast.
Carter helped him to sit against the wall. "Where's Jen?" He asked offering him a bottle of water.
"I don't know, we were sleeping in the garden, and then she was gone." He breathed. Carter and Dana looked at each other.
"Wes you need to rest." Dana said. "Stay here with Carter and I'll contact Eric."
As Dana walked out of the room she ran into Mr. Collins.
"Dana Philips said that Wes ran in here like the devil was chasing him. Is everything all right?"
"Mr. Collins! Call an ambulance I think Wes is having a heart attack. I have to contact Eric and see if he knows where Jen is."
Mr. Collins' face paled. "All right." He said taking his cell phone out of his pocket. When the operator answered he said in a quavering voice. "This is Anthony Collins I need an ambulance at the Collinswood estate. It's my son, I think he's having a heart attack."
The door opened to the memory adaptation pod and Jen stepped out. Alex met her as she began to waver and steadied her.
"Jen?"
"Do I know you?" She answered nervously.
"You've just gone through something called memory adaptation. Some of your memory has been erased. What is left will return to you in a moment." He said gently helping her over to a chair.
Jen sat for a few moments and looked around. "Alex, what are we doing here?" She asked.
"We were just restoring some of your memories. It can make you a little disoriented."
"The last thing I remember is you captured Ransik and we were assigned to take him to the prison facility. I don't remember anything after that."
"You had an accident the truck crashed. But Time force was on the scene quickly and got Ransik safely locked up."
"Why don't I remember that?"
"Because during the accident you hit your head, it gave you amnesia. You've only been back on duty for a few days."
Jen wasn't sure she really accepted his explanation but it made a little sense to her. She had a pounding headache and didn't want to argue with him.
"Why don't you let me drive you home and I'll tell you more on the way."
"A-all right." She stammered letting Alex lead her out of the room.
