"No skateboard but still plenty of "Take No Prisoners" attitude there." At the sound of her former teacher's voice, Josie Trent turned from her contemplation of Blake Holsey High to see Professor Zachary.

"I don't think I'll ever outgrow the need to kick butt. I just do it less often now that we closed down the black hole during our junior year," she replied as she hugged her old mentor.

"I'm sure Cornell will be glad to hear that. Congratulations on the metallurgy fellowship by the way." he replied as he leaned down to hug her back. "I can't believe you decided to come back for your fifth year reunion. I thought you swore you'd never come back after graduation."

"Yeah, well Corrine caught me at a weak moment," She muttered. She changed the subject. Still with her hands on his arms, she moved back so she could see him better. "I'm sure you've been enjoying the peace and quiet for these five years without me or any black hole problems to drive you crazy." Z looked ... good. Not much difference than when he was her teacher. A streak or two of silver in hair, perhaps a smile line or two, but brought out the dark blue of his eyes. From what she could tell from the hug, he was still in pretty good shape. What a second, when did she start seeing Z as looking good and checking out his shape? She was so confused at her barrage of thoughts, that she nearly missed his response to her.

"Well, relatively quiet, I still have teen-aged students, but you were certainly in a class by yourself." Z paused, smiling down at her. His smile changed to puzzlement, as she stood there and looked at him.

Almost simultaneously, they seemed to be aware that they were still touching and quickly dropped their arms. Before the awkward silence got too long, however, the rest of the science club came up to them. Josie quickly put the odd encounter aside to say hello to her friends.

A couple of hours later, Josie was by herself again. Lucas and Vaughn were engrossed in a conversation and well Corinne and Marshall had slipped away, perhaps to finally get together. Maybe it was time to slip out and do a little private reminiscing. After all it would do for people to see her all nostalgic.

The science lab even in the dim light, looked about the same, which was a bit of relief. Josie strolled from work station, stopping briefly to run her finger over the back of a microscope. A lot of exciting things happened here. Suddenly she heard Madison's voice faintly in the hallway. She really did not feel ruining her mood by dealing with the other girl's snide comments. Well there was always the tried and true method of hiding under the desk. She quickly slid underneath one of the desks in the back.

Just time though, because she heard someone walk in and shut the door. Damn, she didn't think Madison was that close and why would she be in the lab? She scrunched down further as she heard footsteps coming close by. She felt someone crouch down nearby and looked up. "Z, What are you doing here?"
