The following morning Jackie and Katelyn were subjected to a rigorous interview in order to determine their exact skill sets and talents. When their high value to the organization was validated they underwent extensive physical examinations as well. A clean bill of health was a must for these new additions. Then, based on the final conclusions from the interviews, Jackie was assigned to the clinic as a nurse while Katelyn was given more skilled work in the laboratories.

In their first week, the two women were mutually depressed. The despair from the sudden, and failed, rescue attempt in Cincinnati still weighed heavily on their minds. However, the act of being tasked with duties they were passionate about slowly began to improve their optimism. Realizing they had things well gave them hope to work diligently and make the best out of their situation. Jackie still clung to the hope that Franklin would somehow find her.

Katelyn had always been one to enjoy lab work. Ever since she was a little girl, she had dreamed of being a scientist and discovering the cure for cancer or developing the replacement for fossil fuel energy. As her second Monday began she cleaned a Petri dish in preparation for another tissue sample. She had arrived at the lab before the other members of the team and set up her work station for the day.

The door to the lab suddenly swung open with a clang and another assistant named Rob walked in. "Morning, Katelyn," he said.

Without paying attention too much to him, Katelyn politely replied and went back to setting up her station. Like her, he was kidnapped and forced into this position. His outlook was much more positive, however. He was so passionate about lab work and making new discoveries that he didn’t care what environment he was in. The laboratory got him out of bed every morning. In fact, Katelyn beating him to work today was a small miracle in itself.

"What do you have for breakfast there, Rob?" She had downed a cold biscuit with butter earlier, and couldn’t help but notice Rob preparing to open a small paper bag. Surely it could be more succulent than her sawdust-like delicacy.

"Nothing much," he replied. "Just a ten month old toaster pastry that someone found the other day on a supply run."

Katelyn laughed, "Be careful that you don't get sick."

Rob chuckled, "What I could really go for is a waffle drenched with some maple syrup! All that sticky sweet goodness running everywhere would make my taste buds have a field day!"

Katelyn's smile slowly faded as the image of a syrup soaked waffle entered her head. Her eyes watered as her stomach rejected the idea of a waffle. What the...? She exclaimed to herself, I like waffles! She placed her hand over her gut as the feeling got worse.

Rob noticed the change in her expression, but figured she just hated waffles. He shrugged and turned back to his toaster pastry. He opened the bag and sniffed the contents. "Oh this smells awful!" He pretended to gag and walked over to Katelyn.
