Chapter
Seven
Jane Anne stepped
out of Air Force One onto the tarmac of John F. Kennedy Airport in New York
City and she was glad to be home. She had missed her city with its
bright lights and its energy. It helped revive her after two weeks spent in
Bern, Switzerland for the conference. She was only supposed to be there a week
but things kept coming up keeping all the heads there, but thankfully they did
get a lot of things settled and a lot of plans set into motion.
She
walked towards the limo that was waiting to take her home. On the way to her
home in Mount Vernon, New York she started checking emails and voice messages
and all the things she had missed while she was away. She sighed, all it was,
was more problems she needed to find solutions to. As the limo pulled into her
drive way her cell phone rang. She tapped her wrist where it was located and
answered it.
“Hello
Jane Anne Miller speaking, whom may I ask is calling?”
“Hello
Ms. Miller, this is Carol Raemous, Head of the American branch of the Global
Space Agency, I need you to come into our New York Office immediately.
Something has come up that we need you see. We already have the President
coming in and the other Heads of Sates are coming in tomorrow, but I think it’s
best you see first, seeing as you are basically the voice of reason to them,”
Carol Raemous spoke quickly, and urgently.
Jane
Anne was surprised and dismayed at being asked to go anywhere this late at
night, but she knew that it must be something very important for the Head of
GSA to call.
“I’ll
be there as soon as I can, is there anything I need to bring with me?”
“No
just hurry, this is incredible,” Carol hung up without saying goodbye, but Jane
Anne Didn’t take it personally. She had met Carol a handful of times while they
were discussing things pertaining to the Global Space Agency, and Carol never
said goodbye, she said she didn’t have the time that was two seconds she could
be thinking about something important.
Jane
Anne knocked on the partition dividing her and the limo driver and instructed
him to take her to the GSA building in Manhattan. The car backed out and she
was on her way back into the city. It was going to be another long night.
