“Mom?” Sofie called. “Mom, this is Sofie, are you there?” There was no answer. Sofie repeated.
“Sofie!” it was Dolores. “Sofie, are you all right?”
“Yea, I'm OK. Jessie helped free us. I can't tell you any more in case they're listening. I love you mom, see you soon. Here's Jessie.” Tears ran down her face. She wanted to say more but Leland had her rehearse her statement before they called.
“Bye Sofie… soon? How soon?” Sofie wanted to answer but was warned by Leland not to give that information away.
“Mom?” Jessie asked.
“Hi Jessie.” Jodi answered without delay.
“Mom, listen, the Kan-ji are planning on attacking the Earth.” Jessie ignored her moms 'what?’ response. “They have a portal technology, sort of like a worm-hole where they can transport stuff through space. They’re setting one up outside the solar system to bring in the rest of the fleet.” she continued past her mom’s interruptions. “Tell dad, Sheldon’s welcome to go to Stan’s office at noon on July first. Write that down, dad should know.”
“I got it... Sheldon’s welcome to go to Stan’s office... but I don’t understand.” Jodi responded.
“See you soon.” Jessie said holding back her tears.
“Sorry, but we need to terminate our communications, signing out.” Leland interrupted and turned off the radio.
“We need to hurry.” Leland said as daylight turned to night outside.
