Phoenix looked over apologetically at the Probe as she pulled down a box and started rummaging through the books inside, occasionally lifting up a book to look at its title.

<<< Maybe he would take calls through an answering service or have an on-board cell system integrated into his communications >>>

Delfina brushed off the book and squinted at title, trying to read the words on the front jacket cover. "Ugh, can't make it out," she muttered, "This is going to take awhile..."

A sleek, steele grey Agusta/Bell mix was sitting on the city helipad, waiting for his four-wheeled partner to show up, when he got a call on his on-board system. He answered, "Huntington. What the problem?"

"I know," Phoenix said. "But we're probably looking for an older one, probably blue or red."

"Okay, that narrows it down a bit," Delfina nodded as she looked at the rest of the contents in the box, trying to spot either a red or a blue-colored one. She paused and looked at the rest of the boxes stacked on every shelf, "I think I might need some help here. Don't think I can do this all by myself."

"I would of asked Ebs to come along with us," Phoenix said grabbing down another box. "I just didn't want to stress her out with my problem."

"Shale? this is Kendall, how're you doing?" Kendall replied. "To get to the point, we have a pest problem, once again. Ebony's old man somehow got our unlisted number and called her, despite those very explicit no-contact orders he's under. We figure he's trying to sleaze his way back into town."

"Because she's in term?" asked Delfina as she set the first box that she was looking through aside, after not having found what she was looking for, and took down another one to look through it. "Well, I know how much she would've wanted to help. Though I'm sure she's helped in some other way, hasn't she?"
*****
"Oh, hey Kendall," Shale's voice relaxed a bit, recognizing who was on the other end of the line. He listened to the NSX explain the situation. He grimaced a little bit. "I see. I'll be lifting off soon with my partner anyway. We'll probably be over in a couple of hours. Tops."
*****
Ebony, though she was resting, listened in on the phone conversation between Kendall and Shale. Did he say partner? Who is it and would his partner be able to help?

Phoenix nodded. "She gave us help looking into different fertility treatments that we've been trying for a couple for a few months now," she said pulling down the next box.

"Sounds like she really wants to see something good come out of this," mused Delfina. She rummaged through the contents of the box, looking for either a red or a blue-colored book.

Ebony sighed and watched the twins and Gryffin play on the floor of the living room for awhile. She felt rather bored, as well as not feeling well.

"As soon as my partner arrives," Shale continued over the phone with Kendall, "We'll leave for Cortez at once."

"OK, Thanks." Kendall said. "And dinner's on me when you get there. Give us a call when you arrive, eh?"

"Heh, Luke is always up for a free dinner," Shale laughed, as he took several glances around to see if the silver Skyline had shown up yet, "I'll give you a call when we get there. Talk to you later, Kendall. Give Ebony my regards."

"I will. Talk to you later, OK? Bye for now." Kendall answered. He turned discreetly to Ebony. "Shale says hi."

"Bye," said Shale as he closed the connection.

"I heard," Ebony said as she lifted her eyes from the three boys playing in the middle of the living room, "I didn't know he had a partner. I thought PIs worked alone."

"Much of the time, they do." Kendall shrugged, "But this pairing was pretty recent."
