Gemma had spent the last two hours in a pointless meeting, at least it felt pointless with everything else that they had going on.

It had taken her all night but she had discovered the Victoria Kord had found the Scarab and that it was locked away in the restricted access research lab in Kord Industries. It was a discovery that Jenny had not taken lightly.

When Jenny had left her house she had been desperate to find a way to get the Scarab back, now Gemma hadn't heard from her all morning and she was beginning to worry.

She was waiting for Javier on the side walk to come around with the car, she felt impatient as she began to pace in front of the Ivo Tech building.

When Gemma's phone began to ring she answered it without hesitation when she saw Jenny's name across the screen.

"Jenny I haven't heard from you all morning." Gemma said feeling relieved that she was finally hearing back from Jenny. After they had discovered that Victoria Kord had found the Scarab she had been worried that Jenny would do something stupid and reckless.

"I did something really stupid." Jenny stated sounding out of breath.

Gemma froze, already knowing the answer but still having to ask. Still needing that confirmation. "What?"

"I broke into the Kord Industries research lab and stole the Scarab."

It was definitely not ideal. Sure, it's was better that it was out of Victoria Kord's hands but there was no knowing what she would do to get it back. They had to move quickly.

"Okay then just meet me here at Ivo Tech and we'll figure out what to do with the Scarab."

There was a long pause on the other end that caused Gemma to automatically come to every worst possible conclusion. "I don't have the Scarab."
