the barrel almost scraped the ground. He stood completely erect and
walked over to the wall where the control panel was. A single touch and
a second panel came up. He closed his eyes as he turned the ceiling light
on. His eyes were switched back to normal vision and he opened his
eyelids.

"Come on down, guys!" yelled Nemesis as he looked over at Jack
who was still slouched in his padded chair, still jacked into the nets.

"What's the deal!?" yelled back Slash.

"He's here. Still in the net." The elevator platform began to move
back up and in no time the rest of the team minus Donna was in the comp
room. "I guess he's still in the net."

"What the hell's he still doin' in there?" replied Slash quite
disgusted at Jack now that he was still here and had left them in Cryon.

"He must've run into something." sighed Nebulus looking at his
foot as it tapped lightly on the concrete floor. 'What could he have run
into? ICE? Naw, couldn't be. He's too good for that. Then again... Naw,
he must be screwin' around or somethin'. But why would he leave us in
Cryon to go screw around somewhere? I wonder if they got this thing up
and running before we got there. Or what if they had another site, or if
we attacked the wrong site! Couldn't be. We planned this thing to
perfectly to hit the wrong site. Yeah, sure.' he thought to himself,
especially after how badly they fucked the whole deal up. 'Well, there's
only one way to find out.' Looking up he said "I'm goin' in" and started to
walk towards the workstation next to Jack's.

"What! You can't be serious. Let's just pull the plug and get him
back" screeched Slash.

"Yeah, right. And possibly loose him forever. He might be into
something serious, and there's only one way to find out." replied
Nebulus, putting a wireless jack next to his ports.

"I thought you could track someone like that for cryin' out loud!"

"We'll see about that." With that he sat in the chair and jacked in,
wireless of course.

"Well, let's get them prepared for a long trip. I can't see them
coming back any time soon" softly spoke Slash. She and Nemesis turned
to the one cabinet that had little components and things in it. The door
was opened and two IV's were taken out by Slash. She walked over to the
two and began to get Jack ready for insertion. Nemesis in the mean time
began preparing the two nutrient bags. In no time, both Jack and
Nebulus were outfitted with medical nutrient bags that fed into their
system. That way they at least wouldn't dehydrate.
