EPISODE 4: CALLING
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN Dark Angel and cause FOX don't want it any more, no one does. However credit should be given to CAMERON and EGLEE for the Quality Television they gave us for Two Seasons and the DARK ANGEL Creative Team for shaping the characters which I and many other's accepted and loved as our very own. Thankyou so much for that and hopefully (if it is at all possible), we may be able to see Dark Angel again.
A/N: I would like to personally dedicate my writing of which was written before I found out this news to one of my old neighbours, Brent who was injured in the Bali bombing which killed so many innocent people of which 20 have been confirmed Australian. I also ask that everyone keeps those people's families of victims and the victims themselves in their prayers and also pray that the culprits of the Bali Bombing and all Terrorist Attacker's be severely punished for there evil acts.
Please Pray for Peace

"Hello?" Max answered her cell phone on the first ring, sitting across from the still Jondy whom was layed out on Jondy's bed.
"How you doing?" Logan's sincere voice was music to Max's ears.
"I'm okay, but there's no change. I'm a little bored though, so I went through Alec's stuff. His kitchen is an absolute chaos, and he's not eating so well. Look's like he's decided to ignore Nutrition Ops."
"So I need some advice on something. I got a really strange offer today from my brother in law today, his firm actually" Logan informed Max.
"What kind of offer?" Max got up and went outside the bedroom, closing the door behind her.
"A job offer, to do a freelance journalist position reporting on the case's Eye's Only deals with. The firm wants me to put the cases Eyes Only deals with in the paper before I telecast. I spoke to one of the firm's representative's today and they are willing to offer me $600,000 per year plus bonuses. Plus I can hire my own assisting team, researches annalists and they will cover everything!" Logan spoke in an excited, but wary tone and this suggested to Max that he hadn't rejected the job and saw possibilities.
"But isn't there like a major conflict of interest, cause you are Eye's only!" Max replied 'matter of factly!'
"Yes, but at the same time I think I can see past all of that. I can make more people aware of the issues and I can even discuss leads that I feel I can discuss, and potentially increase the influence that Eye's Only has. Plus, I definitely need the money and I'll be able to improve my resources and even better, I'll be able to hire my own staff and get all my old, and new informants back." Logan sounded even more excited and Max hadn't heard Logan being this happy for a very long time.
"Maybe you could even hire me, and Asha and ... our virus!" Now it was Max's turn to be excited.
"Yeah, it would definitely increase our chances of finding a cure. I think I'm going to take the Job." Logan informed Max again, in a defiant voice.
"I think you should too. We're just going to have to be really careful, correction you are going to have to be really careful."
"Yeah, but look at what this will do for us!" Logan got up from his chair and went to the kitchen where he picked up the business card left by the firm's representatives.
"That's settled then, and I think that call's for a celebration!" Max went into Alec's kitchen and opened the fridge and grimaced.
"I agree. Bring Joshua, Alec and Original Cindy and if you can, bring Jondy!" Logan offered to Max, which brought her back to earth. Jondy was still in her silent state and not everything in her life was looking up.
"Definitely," was Logan's reply.

What is this room I'm in, and this bed, where did that come from. It's different from those other bed's I've been in, with the metal bars and chains that keep me strapped. And this bed is bigger then the other beds, softer as well.
What's this voice I hear, it sounds familiar. I like this voice, it reminds me of raspberries and chipmunks. Maybe if I shout it will hear me and come to me, but I can't think of it's name.
Max, that was its name. Max, no it can't be Max cause I haven't seen her since we escaped Manticore. But I'm sure it's Max and if she can find me, maybe the other's will too. And my family, Mum, Dad, my sisters. Oh where are they.
I must call out so they can find me and help me find my way back home.

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Jondy called out from Alec's room and Max burst through the door in her transgenic speed and was at Jondy's side immediately. Jondy was sitting up and she was calling out for Max so load, the entire neighbourhood could probably of heard her.
"I'm here honey. Jondy it's okay, your safe and everything is going to be alright!" Max assured Jondy, with her arms tightly around Jondy, her hands stroking her hair.
Jondy began crying and all Max could hear wear Jondy's sobs as she held her tightly in her arms. Then after what seemed like forever, Jondy stopped and broke apart from Max.
"Where am I?" Jondy looked at Max directly and for the first time since she had found Jondy, she could see her sister alive in her eyes. Jondy was back and the shock was gone.
"Seattle honey, you're in America." Max sat back and reached for the glass of water that was by Jondy's bedside.
"Gosh, I'm so thirsty!" Max gave Jondy the water and she gulped it so Max poured yet another from a jug she had left and Jondy gulped that down too.
Rinnnnnnnnnnnng Rinnnnnnnnnnnnng
Max's cell phone rang in her pocket so she answered the phone. "Hello!"
"Max, it's Taylah. Have you found my sister?"
