Episode 6, Part One

Early Morning Incursion

"Wake up, Connor,"

"Huh?" Connor woke to Abby shaking his shoulder.

"Wake up!" She said, pulling the covers off of him.

"I'm up, I'm up!" He responded, rubbing his eyes. "Whats wrong?"

"Nothing," She said.

"Then whats the hurry?" He asked. "We don't have work today."

"It's Cutter," She explained. "He's here with a guest."

Connor got out of bed and pulled on his jeans and threw on a shirt. Walking to the bedroom door he hopped on one foot, trying to put a pair of socks on. He and Abby walked down the stairs to greet their guests.

"Jenny," Connor said. He walked up to her. "I thought you moved away?"

"Connor," Cutter said. "This isn't Jenny,"

"Isn't Jenny? But then who..." His voice trailed off and his eyes widened. "Claudia Brown?"

Claudia nodded. "Its good to see you again Connor."

"I'm sure I would feel the same if I knew you before." Connor said. "But it is good to meet you; Everyone thought that Cutter was going crazy."

"Well, not everybody," Cutter said, turning to Claudia. "Connor and Abby believed me, even though they never met you."

"Well, we knew Cutter well, and knew he would never joke about the anomalies, and the tests proved that he hadn't gone through any shock from entering the anomaly." Abby said. She then added, "Shall we continue in the kitchen? I have breakfast made, if you two would like to eat with us."

"That is very kind of you," Claudia said. "We'd love to join you."

The group walked into the kitchen, where Nick and Claudia sat at the table. Connor set plates, cups and cutlery on the table as Abby finished making breakfast. She set a plate of waffles on the table, followed by a jug of milk and pot of coffee. She and Connor then sat at the table with their guests.

After the began eating, Connor spoke.

"So, Claudia," He began. "How exactly did you find your way here?"

She understood what he meant. "In my time, I never disappeared- as i apparently did here-, but everything else turned out a lot- if not exactly- the same as this time line here." She took a sip of coffee. "The A.R.C came into existence shorty after Cutter went through the Permian anomaly, Becker was hired, Helen blew up the A.R.C, and Cutter was shot. After New Dawn, I fell through an anomaly."

"How did you manage to fall through an anomaly?" Abby asked.

"Danny Quinn." Claudia said. "He pushed me out of the way of a charging creature. He saved my life, but he also accidentally pushed me through the anomaly. It closed before I could get back, but i am actually glad I'm stuck here." Claudia admitted. "If the anomaly opens again the A.R.C's rules and regulations would not allow me to stay here."

"Well, Emily stayed, and her anomaly has opened frequently." Connor said. "If she could stay, doesn't that mean Claudia could, too?"

"You would be right," Cutter said. "Except there aren't two Emily's in this time."

"Nicks right," Claudia said. "Besides, whoever this Emily is, the only reason she could stay was probably because she was in some sort of danger in her own time. Am I right?"

"Yes," Abby said. "She was allowed to stay because she was blamed for dozens of murders. If she had stayed she would have been sent to an mental institution."

"Who did the murders if she didn't?" Cutter asked.

"A raptor." Connor answered. "She was chasing it around London in the eighteen hundreds, trying to stop it."

"Ah, I see," Cutter nodded. "I assume she was seen at the crime scenes every time, yes?"

Abby nodded. "But that isn't very important, anymore."

"I agree," Claudia. "All that matters is that she is safe now."

Abby thought for a second, chewing a piece of her waffle. "Claudia, you should meet Emily sometime. You two would get along great!"

"I would love to meet her," Claudia nodded, smiling. Abby still had the same politeness as she did in her time line. "Perhaps we could all go out for a night, just us women."

"Oh, and Jess!" Abby said. "Does Jess work for the A.R.C in you time line?"

Claudia nodded. "Yes, I agree, Jess should come with us as well; she and I are such good friends. I hope I can recreate our friendship here."

"I'm sure that you and her will make great friends!"

As the two women talked and laughed, the men had their own conversation.

"Perhaps us boys could hang out while the women are out." Connor suggested.

"Sounds like a good idea," Cutter agreed. "We should see if Becker and Matt would like to join us."

"That sounds great; the more the merrier." Connor nodded. "We should go see a movie."

"Alright," Cutter said. "What would you suggest?"

"Well, the new Star Trek movie just came out, maybe we could go see that?"

"Maybe." Cutter shook his head. "Why don't we rent a movie instead?"

"That isn't a bad idea," Connor said, thinking. "How about a science fiction movie?"

"Nothing about aliens or zombies." Cutter said. "Those movies are just ridiculous."

"OK, uh, how about Jurassic Park?" Connor suggested. "Matt might like that; I don't think he's ever seen it."

"Seeing as how he's from the future, I doubt he's seen many movies at all." Cutter chuckled. "Jurassic Park sounds good."

"Alright, we can watch it here; I'll supply the snacks."

"I'll get the drinks." Cutter volunteered.

"All we have to do know is invite the others set a time." Connor grinned. "This is gonna be great."

Cutter laughed, "You know, Connor, in the time I was gone, you grew up quickly."

"I guess I was a little bit childish before." Connor admitted.

Cutter laughed again. "Just a little."

Just then Connor, Abby and Cutter's phones buzzed.

"Another anomaly." Abby sighed, reading the text they all had received.

"It's close," Connor said. "About a three minute drive from here; if we leave now we could be there and back within twenty minutes."

"If there isn't a serious incursion." Cutter remarked, standing.

"I can hope, can't I?" Connor replied, setting his dished in the sink. "Abby, why don't you stay here?" Connor suggested. "It'll give you and Claudia some time to visit and get to know each other."

"Are you sure?" Abby asked, already having her coat on.

"I'm sure; Cutter and I can handle what ever comes through that anomaly, right?" He looked over at Cutter, who was now tying his shoes.

"Yeah," He agreed. "You two stay here and visit; Connor and I will check it out quickly.

Abby hesitated. "Alright," She agreed, removing her coat. "Just don't get you self killed." She picked up her pink scarf and walked towards Connor. She wrapped it around his neck and used it to pull him close for a kiss. She let go and walked back to the table.

"Be careful!" Both women commanded.

Both men- naturally- called back over their shoulder, "Don't worry, we will!"

After they had walked out the door, Abby turned to Claudia. "I hate when they say that."

She looked at her friend and said, "I agree."
