As time went on my mates headed their separate ways to get cleaned up for the night I headed home for a shower and a change of clothes myself. Mum and...dad were apparently out for the night, this became obvious as soon as I stepped into the house and caught the smell of cigarette smoke and the sound of Claire and her friends laughter. I ran straight up to my room before anyone saw me, not planning to hang around too long. From my window I could see Claire and three friends anjoying a few. "Um.. Ummmmm." Amanda looked at him, trying to find his eyes again. "Is it OKthat I ask, Doug? I'm just curious..." Um. The second." Doug exhaled."I see...." Amanda paused. "Does it take long?" Doug started- hewasn't expecting another question. Instead of waiting for his answer, Amanda slowly stood up andwent over to the counter. She faced away from her nephew, andslowly, wordlessly shimmied and worked up her skirt. Doug stared.Under the skirt, Amanda was wearing a little lacy thong,. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.“Now I’ll never know what was so valuable to him,” Jack said. “I better get some sleep. I have an early flight home, Mom.”It had been about two weeks since Mr. Belser died. Returning home from work one day Jack discovered a note in his mailbox. “Signature required on a package. No one at home. Please stop by the main post office within the next three days,” the note read.Early the next day Jack retrieved the package. The small box was old. Hopefully this would give him more information about wherever the unit was going when it disappeared.With everything ready Jason activated the unit. Just like in previous occasions the unit immediately disappeared from its place on the table and Jason settled back in his chair to await its return. He was very eager to see what the camera and other instruments inside the unit would record while the unit was gone. He didn't really know if the unit had somehow transported itself away some physical.
