I’m looking at this Order and it looks like I’d be committing a crime if I didn’t shut down the offices and studio. Please advice.

Helena poked at the keys on the keyboard. She banged on them in anger as she wrote the short message.
Melissa,
Close down. Go home. Leave everything on your desk. I’ll make sure you and your colleagues get paid with a twelve week severance package. Close. I’ll try to work this all out with my mother and her attorney, but in the meantime, enjoy your break.
Helena Peabody
She was pissed, but matters surrounding Shaolin’s existence were on the back burner now. Her only interest was finding Dylan and getting to her. There was little doubt in Helena’s mind where Dylan had gone. She hoped Dylan would confirm, but in the meantime, she’d make her arrangements. Helena knew that the Peabody jet would be off-limits to her, so she called her travel agent and gave her the information. “Price is not an issue. I can get to the airport two hours after you contact me.”
“You’ll need to be there two, maybe two and a half hours earlier than the flight,” her Israeli travel agent said.
“I’m aware of that.” Helena nodded her head against the phone. “Find me a flight that fits within those parameters. Thank you very much.” She disconnected the call and opened Dylan’s message again, clicked ‘reply,’ and was about to being another brief letter to Dylan. A small alert sounded and another message from Dylan popped up in the bottom right corner of her laptop. She opened it.
Helena,
Do you understand where I am? I can’t say. I’m afraid to say. I think I’ll do well here though–I already know the alphabet, so I won’t need anyone teaching me.
Good Day,
D
That clue confirmed exactly what Helena had believed. She grinned. She knew. Helena returned to the email she had just begun.
I just got your message. I understand completely, love. I’m getting a flight. I’ll email you with my arrival time. I’ll find you and we’ll figure out where to rendezvous. I’m going to prepare to leave, so I won’t be available online. I’ll see you in person soon.

i am once again left speechless at your incredible ability to weave a tale. i actually yelped in excitement when Angie was safe but at the same time, believe it or not, felt somewhat sorry for Josh. only your writing could evoke that somewhat schizophrenic sympathy.I’m also a bit worried at the introduction of Jodi into the story but hope that after all that we’ve been through with Bette and Tina to date, she will not pose a threat to their relationship.as for all of the other characters and their stories, i am finding them entertaining and interesting as well which is not usually the case when reading as i’m pretty much just a Tina/Bette fan. this again, is testimony to your ability to ability to entertain.thanks again for the story and the time and effort that must be involved. looking forward as always to reading more.
WOW. you put so much into this everyone was weitten about. Could have done without Jodie tho. thanks
I’ve spent the past two days reading the whole thing, and honestly? It’s great. Really, really great. The characters are well written and adhere to canon, your reweaving of the events of Season 3 into this alternative version is not only really well done, but in my mind — preferable. As for the Jodi issue, if she’s like every other non-core character in your work (herself, but changed), I’ll be very happy to see where that goes. I do wonder, though, moments after Bette is reunited with Tina and her baby for the first time in weeks, she wanders off to talk to Jodi? That seems a little… I don’t know, inhuman? But, hey, if that’s my only complaint in 26 chapters, consider it an amazing feat. I’m a huge Danish fan, and I’m happy to see you keeping the love alive. Would love to see more of that relationship in your writing, but generally I think the chapters are fairly good about being even with their time. You’re prolific. Are you really spitting out this much in three days? Because if so, that’s incredible. I mean, really, really exceptional. Thanks for writing this, it’s a great read, and I can’t wait to see more of it.
more sharmeeeeeen!!! pleasee!!..excellent chap, so glad angie’s ok, hope you post soon
Thank goodness Angelica is safe. I’m glad Boden was there. Um, not too excited about Jodi showing up in this story :). Can’t wait for the celebration…hope everyone gets a little ‘private celebration’ time :wink:. You’ve really spoiled us this last week Portia. Thanks for this wonderful fic and don’t be gone too long :)
Nice way to weave Jodi and Big Bear into the story – and loved that Bette denied ‘gush’ing. Great stuff, Portia.
Bette better mess up of jodi!! yeah for angie being okay… now it’s time for the port-kennards to get on with their lives. tina needs to finish her rehab.i wonder what else steph. did what else is she hiding??? great update!!:)
Ahhhh… I can breathe now. That was tense, but Baby A is safe, finally! I’m so glad there was a third person there and Boden clocked that whining maggot Josh. Although, I think Bette would have ripped him apart eventually anyway. Hels is leaving, which is a shame, but her heart’s somewhere else… So! Ol’ Steph’s about to get her comeuppance, big time. I hope Peter gets his money back, as well as his furniture. I’m dreading the stuff coming out that was on that list of hers. Girl needs help, if she can survive prison. This was so good, I can’t wait for the next post. thanks Portia.
glad angie is ok…can’t wait for shane to get home and face the wrath of carmen…things need to change
