Location: Pegasus/SB400
Timeline: After the meeting

After the meeting, Alex decided to start researching the names given. But before she could start, she needed to talk to T'Lar and let her know that they were still at Earth. After a while, T'Lar's face appeared on the screen.

"Hi Alex, how are things going there on your end?"

"Well, we're still at earth. Hopefully, we'll be able to leave here by tomorrow."

"That's fine. I'm not going anywhere for awhile."

"Good. Thanks. Hey, I have a question. Have you ever heard of a Marine named Jim Hawkings or a Lt. Commander Jon Westmoreland?"

"Hmm, Jon Westmoreland. I know of him but never met the guy. He served on the Pegasus-A but left when Bremer's new ship launched. I had just gotten command of the Essex and was considering a few people for Executive Officer and he was one of the ones I was looking at. And as for Hawking, I don't know him. But I have a great deal of contacts so I'll check and see if anyone else has heard or seen him. Where was he seen last?"

Alex looked at her notes, "He served on the USS Dallas for about six months and then on Archer IV for two months."

"Okay, I'll do some checking and see what I can find out."

Alex sat back in her chair, "Thank you. I'd better go. Give my son a hug for me and tell him that I'll see him soon."

Deela smiled, "I will. As soon as I find out something, I'll let you know."

"Okay, thanks again."

They said their goodbyes and the screen went black.
