�Oh, good!! I was worried- I heard screaming. Are you all right, Clarice?� It was one of her friends, Matt, upstairs in Behavioral Sciences.

�Yeah, I saw a mouse,� she improvised quickly.

�Oh.� A deep chuckled filled her ear but he obviously believed her. �Hey, listen, I need you to bring up the dates list that you have? You know, the one with your birthdate and anything else important for the Lecter case?�

�Yeah, sure. I�ll be right up.� Clarice noted that her breathing had slowed.

�Great.�

Hanging up the phone she began to redress, finding her blouse on the floor next to her, only a little wrinkled, and she knew her shoes were on the other side of her desk. She went for them, but the phone rang again. Picking it up, she said;

�I'm on the way up...I'll be right there," she told Matt, looking at the clock and slipping her shoes on.

�Going where, Clarice?� The voice was not Matt�s.

�Doctor Lecter?�
