Rescue Plans
Jul. 31st, 2010 11:00 am"Ms. Mercer?"
Tess looks up from the files she's browsing, even if she's still not supposed to be 'working' per doctor's orders, and regards George with vague disinterest. "What is it?"
"Those stores of meteor rock we've been monitoring across the country. We found a new one," her assistant explains. His employer merely raises an eyebrow.
"And?" So Chloe and her cohorts created a new stash of kryptonite weapons. Nice to know, but it's certainly not urgent information. Nowhere near urgent enough to disturb her when she's been in the mood she's been in for the last few weeks.
George clears his throat and continue. "It appears to be somewhat more isolated than the others and-- it's been radiating."
Oh, now that's interesting. "It's glowing?" Tess motions for him to pass the computer monitor over to her so she can see this herself. Very, very interesting. Definitely the same signature as the others, but the energy level is different. Almost as if a Kryptonian were present. "How long ago did you find this?"
"Three days ago. The patterns of radiation were deemed steady enough to bring to your attention today."
"Three days," she echoes quietly, not really wanting to think what that could actually mean. The glowing image garners another brief glance before she turns her attention back to her employee, ready to dish out instructions. "Get a team together. Small, capable and expendable. Then go to the Kandorians and tell them we have a lead on the Major. Let them think they're in charge if it'll make them co-operate easier." Tess passes the monitor back. "And then have them bring him home."
George simply nods and leaves the room.
