Saralie met up with her uncle at the Global Dynamics building in the middle of town. He was dressed in a dust colored uniform and grinned widely when he saw her. They ran to each other and embraced. Only after that hug broke up did Saralie notice the man standing beside her uncle. He looked very familiar to her, although she had no idea who he was, she looked him over. He had darker skin than her uncle and looked Norwegian. She smiled softly at him, her disarming innocent smile.
"Hello," she said, extending her hand, "I'm Saralie Carter," he shook her hand.
"This is Nathan Stark," Jack said, and Saralie knew why he looked familiar. She had made it a point to see him when he won his Nobel Prize. Right then she noticed a woman coming out of the building. The woman had darker skin than Nathan but not by much. Her hair was straight and dark. "Saralie, this is Allison Blake," Jack introduced her. Allison and Saralie shook hands.
"I hear that you're quite the hacker, Saralie," Allison said sternly.
"I have a natural talent for technology," Saralie said modestly. Allison looked at her oddly.
"You hacked into the pentagon at the age of six and nearly started a war," Saralie looked dejected. She hadn't come all this way to be lectured. That must be what her uncle told them, and Allison went on, "That's more than just a natural talent for technology. I know you hacked into your uncle's computer yesterday, and frankly, you impressed us," Saralie was pleasantly surprised by this. She had been prepared for a tongue lashing, but had been praised. "I hope you enjoy your time in Eureka," smiled Allison.
Jack started to leave with Saralie, but before they got out of sight, Saralie called back to Nathan. "Mister Stark! Double check your work from now on!" Her uncle looked at her oddly, but the car had already gone far enough that they couldn't hear Nathan's answer.
