attacked hers with gusto, whereas Q took slow bites. “So, what’s next?” Else
asked when she had finished her fries.
Q took
out a soggy, though still legible piece of paper from her pocket. “Run along
Main Street on a cloudy Sunday afternoon,” she said.
“Sounds
doable, if it’s still cloudy this Sunday,” Else said with a shrug.
“Sure.”
They
remained in thought as Q finished her meal.

“Sorry. It has been a long day,” Daria said as apology.
“Tell me about it,” Jane responded.
“How’d you get out of jail?” Daria asked.
“Well, it was a little dicey with that jerk deputy,” Jane
said. She turned to a girl nearby “Oops, sorry, Tina.”
“It's okay. When Daddy puts on the uniform, he's a whole
different person,” Tina said.
“But lucky for me, the sheriff's a big fan of Picasso.”
“Not bad,” Daria said.
While Daria and Jane were talking, Quinn slipped away.

They were back behind the Moon a minute later.
Nita
and the Spider
Nita thought
more about the rescue. There was certainly more to it than that. She then
checked the crystal and saw that the STIBE didn’t see anything unusual in that
data. ‘I’ll look over it this evening,’ she thought.
Betty showed Nita the room where the archives were
stored. “That is a lot,” Nina said, seeing that there was only a small amount
of walking space in that room.
“Yes,” Betty said. “The Chronicle was was founded
early in the last century, and James bought it nineteen years ago. He wants you
to build the archive in reverse.”
“So, literally backwards?”
“Yes.”
“I can do that.”
“Good,” Betty said in an encouraging tone.
She soon, got to work. Some of the information was
interesting.

“So, you think something happened there?” Johanna asked
once Bronwyn had filled her in.
“Well, something did fly over the college from that
direction and an ambulance came a few minutes later. I’m sure that’s more than
a coincidence.”
“Well, strange things are happening today, but I don’t
think the two events are linked.”
“But will you help me investigate what happened?” Bronwyn
asked.
Johanna thought for a moment. “I’ll come.”
A few minutes later, they were outside the building.
Britta
“Not really. I needed the break from the monotony
of lesson planning.”
Stacy
and Quinn
O Mally looked
at his seating chart. “Oh! Sorry, you looked like someone else. What do you
have to say about last night's horrible event?”
Marine
20 minutes later, she got a message. It was from another
agent who wanted to meet her. ‘Of course.’
Darian’s
Ranger
“There’s no need for concern. I am capable of treating
any injury or disease,” she scanned a patient. “No concussion. You’ll be fine.
Clean him up.”
Tamsin wasn’t sure what to make of the hologram.
In Engineering, they had stabilised the Core.
Baffled
On Iona
Lara started her duty shift. Lara started her duty shift. As she entered
the Bridge, she could see that Alpha was reading something from a tablet whilst
sitting in the Command Chair and Eta was looking at something on Science
Station 1. She also saw the Pilot make minor course correction. She looked at
Earth’s Moon on the viewscreen. 'Quite interesting that it's tidally locked,'
she thought, as those of her home weren't, although their rotations were in
resonance with their orbits.
