The breeze seemed to come out of nowhere. When she turned around she heard the loud noise and screeching that her mother had described as a child and then saw the shape of the blue box, the words “Police Public Call Box” at the top.

It was a story that had been both true and unreal, a painful story in the last few years after hearing about her brother’s encounter but she never expected to see herself as a part of it.

The only thing she expected less was the sight of two women she didn’t know inviting her in.

The first surprise was seeing Dr. Summerfield standing next to the blue box in a place and time far away from where she expected. The second were the words she greeted her with.

“River we have an errand to run together I’ll explain inside.”

She read the instructions handed to her inside the control room. She was less annoyed by the reqeust than by the realization her assumption that her husband never knew when she would appropriate his ride for her own purposes was off.

“I hate him!” she said shaking her head.

Bernice smiled “No you don’t.”

She was suspicious, she was annoyed but in the end there was no question as to what she would do. Her best friend needed a favor & Bernice Summerfield would come through, with or even without explainations.

Hocksteader turned to Burkhalter next to him, “I knew Klink’s record was too good to be true.”, Burkhalter looked back: “It doesn’t sound right, If such an op had happened I would have known it.”

Klink & Gruber’s relief was evident as they rose  “It was all a conspiracy to discredit us.”

Meanwhile 30 feet below Marya embraced Hogan, “Twenty years later and you still want me darling.”

Hogan’s eyes rolled, Lebow’s eyes widened, Newkirk looked at the others remembering their years in these tunnels.  “Like I said gents, some things just never change do they?”  They all laughed together.
