Tom sat in a gray rental car a few blocks from the university. He knew
he had to make a move soon since he was being watched.
But he had to give Ed as much time as possible to help Sloan and the
baby.

Daniels sighed as he gathered the few items he needed and got out of the
car. He could only pray that the plan he had come up with worked as well
in practice as it did on paper.
The irony of the whole thing was,Tom thought darkly as he started the
familiar journey to the university lab,he had promised Sloan he wouldn't
leave her,no matter what.
Now he had to do everything in his power to keep her from leaving him.

With Lucy driving they followed Lewis's directions to the highrise where
Sloan was being held.
Three blocks from their destination the woman suddenly wrapped the car
into a sharp left turn nearly taking out a taxi and a motorcycle in the
process.
"What the hell are you doing?!"Attwood demanded as he clutched the
dashboard to keep from flying through the windsheild.
"What our kind should have done a long time ago."Sanchez replied with a
cold smile as she pulled the car into a small side street and threw it
in park.
Turning she pulled a gun out of her suit coat and trained it on Lewis,"I
would say you're under arrest,but our laws don't govern your kind."
Attwood leaned forward his right hand outreached,"Lucy,if you give me
the gun,this won't go on your record."
Sanchez's green gaze never left Lewis who seemed unphased and quite
amused by the whole situation,"You think I give a damn about my
record?!"
"Obviously not."Lewis replied as he leaned back in the seat.
"Did I say you could speak?!"Lucy demanded as she fought to regain
control of her emotions. Loosing it now would give Lewis and their kind
the upper hand and that was the last thing she wanted.

Attwood tried another tatic,"He will pay for all the crimes he has
commited,but not today. We need his help.....think of the greater good."
"Sloan Parker is only one person."Sanchez replied bitterly,"If we have
Lewis in our possession we'll have something to bargain with. Or even
better we can give him some uncurable disease and send him back to his
people....take our planet back. We were here first and we're not leaving
so they might as well get used to the idea and this is the first step."

Ray Peterson had to do some fancy footwork to catch the computer monitor
before it hit the floor.
"Damn!"Ed swore as he bolted to the oppisite end of the room ripping his
lab coat off and throwing it to the floor.
The test he thought would give them all the answers had come back
inconclusive. Same as the rest.
Ray carefully placed the monitor back on top of the computer before
turning to face his friend,"Ed....."

Tate ignored him as he continued to stalk around the room running an
angry hand through his hair,"Why the hell couldn't Daniels have left a
note or something?! How does he expect me to work miracles when I have
nothing to work with!"
Whatever Ray's reply was going to be it was instantly forgotten when the
alarm on Sloan's heart monitor started to scream.
