Colleen awoke with a suprise, Jessica was blowing into her mouth and Jessica's Stepfather was pressing down on her chest.
She fought them off and Jessica helped her sit up. "What are you doing to me?" she screamed
"You were having a Heart attack" said Jessica "It's a long story but we need your help. We need to get to the Professor's house, and I'll try and explain on the way."

Throughout America Telegraph, Telephone, and Radio operators were passing messages to military, para-military and Law enforcement organisations. All contained a simple message Steinwick's Address followed by three words "At any Cost."
*****
Steinwick was driving as they flew at high speed through the town, in the back Jim tried to explain to Colleen what had happened. From all directions they could hear sirens closing in on their position. Steinwick hit his lawn and speed and the car bounced up into the air and smashed down into his front door. Everyone rushed out and headed for the Basement, Eliza had come up the stairs was now pushed back down along with the group. Steinwick was last to leave and heard a screech of brakes and turned to look out of the hole the car had made. A large troop carrier had pulled up and now SS troops began piling out of it and forming a defensive perimeter.
******
As soon as Steinwick was on the stair Jim and Colleen set about barricading the basement door. They didn't have much to work with but did the best they could. Eliza ran around making changes and settings, Steinwick joined her then satisfied turned his attention to the Generator.
Satisfied with the barrier Jim and Colleen came down to join them.
"Jim Where and when did Wu send you back from?" Asked Steinwick
Jim gave Steinwick the coordinates and Steinwick set about programming them in.
"O.K. Declared Steinwick "Here's the Plan: When I press this button the Portal will open and we'll all have 30 seconds to enter it. After 30 seconds the remote end of the Portal will collapse normally that would close this end as well but the device has been re-programmed to maintain an open wormhole for as long as it has power. To do that it'll keep drawing more power until the generator overloads when that happens it will destroy this house and anything in it.: are we all clear?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Steinwick hits the button, just as the Nazi's begin to break the door down.
Jim and Colleen pass through the portal first, followed by Eliza.
Steinwick hears footsteps coming down the stairs behind him and throws himself through the portal.
