Katie Smith sat in her office. She had had a hard time recently with her husband and had the divorce papers in front of her.
DING DING! DING DING! DING DING!
That ear piercing sound of the Anomaly Detector rang out and she rushed towards it. Alex was already there, and he had located the anomaly.
”It’s at the local tube station”, he announced. The team rushed to the cars to get there.
Trains were running as normal. One train was on the way to the Lincoln City station. The driver could see a light up ahead. A light that he’d never seen before. He ended up driving right through it as he couldn’t stop the train in time.
The team arrived at the station. They went to speak to the person in charge.
“We need to close down the tube network, at least this station”, Katie told him.
“You can’t do that, we have a train expecting to arrive here now”, argued the person in charge.
“I can do that, we’re from the government”, retaliated Katie. They were interrupted by a young man who came to tell his boss that the train had disappeared from the radar.
“We’ll need to take a look down there”, Katie said. He eventually nodded. The team all went down there, in their special gear. They had torches ready.
The anomaly flickered, and something appeared in it. It was a bit like a large spider. Several of them followed the first, aswell as another thing that looked quite like a centipede…
Katie, Alex and Jimmy went down to the railway. It was black and dull, apart from one thing - the anomaly. It was in front of their eyes, in all its glory.
”Do you think the train’s gone through?”, Jimmy asked.
”There’s only one way to find out”, responded Katie. Alex was about to shout FIGHT!, but realised this wasn’t TV Burp.
“I need to get out more”, Alex muttered to himself. The trio entered the anomaly. When they got through, they nearly fell into this swampy pond. Katie took her jacket off and tied it around her waist as it was so hot.
“Want a hair band?”, Katie asked Alex. Alex had long hair, so felt a bit hot. He blushed, then nodded. Katie handed one to him, and got one out herself. Jimmy laughed at how Alex looked when his hair was tied back. Alex saw him and pushed him into the swampy lake.
“Stop it you two”, Katie ordered, but laughing at how dirty Jimmy was. She helped him out.
“Ignore him”, she whispered to Alex. He nodded. They carried on walking, trying not to fall into the swampy lakes. They saw the train; it had been toppled over.
Back in the present day, Mike, Georgia and Sasha decided to go and have a look down there, even though Georgia said no originally.
“We can’t disobey Katie. How many times have you two actually disobeyed her?”, protested Georgia.
“Don’t be such a spoil sport!”, Mike answered. So all three got themselves ready and went down into the tunnel.
Katie’s half of the team had ran over to the train. No-one was inside.
”They must have got out”, Katie told Jimmy and Alex.
“But there’s no sign of them”, Alex added.
Georgia heard something behind her. She turned around and screamed her head off.
“It’s some sort of a large spider from the Carboniferous era! I hate spiders”, she screamed.
“Even when she’s scared she’s still the Brain of Britain”, Sasha muttered to Mike. They laughed. Mike sprung into action and pulled a pistol out and shot the creature.
“What did you think you were doing?”, argued Georgia.
“A thank you would’ve been nice”, said a sarky Mike.
“Katie’s going to go mad! We came down here when we weren’t meant to, and you killed a creature! That could have damaged the entire universe!”, shouted Georgia, “I’m going back up”. She stormed off.
Sasha and Mike carried on to the anomaly, shooting down more spiders as they go. They saw the anomaly, looked at each other and walked through. They started running, narrowly missing falling into the swamps. They met up with Katie’s half.
“What are you two doing here? Where’s Georgia?”, shouted an angry Katie.
“Never mind for the moment, some creatures have come through”, Sasha told Katie.
Georgia was walking back up. She heard a hissing sort of sound behind her. She turned round and was face to face with a giant centipede. She started to run, screaming. She realised she had a pistol on her and decided to fire it at the creature, she had no alternative. She shot it, and it fell dead on the floor. Georgia carried on running up.
The rest of them came back through the anomaly, and went back up. They saw the giant centipede on the floor. They ran up to make sure Georgia was OK. When they got out, they saw her sitting down on a bench.
“I was just attacked by an Arthropleura!”, moaned Georgia, then she saw Alex’s hair. It cheered her up a bit, and laughed. She apologised.
”Doesn’t matter, at least it made you happier”, Alex said kindly.
They went back to the ARC and told Ben about what happened. He wanted to see Sasha and Mike in his office.
“You two are on your last warning! You do what your boss tells you and that is final!”, moaned Ben. They left his office. Alex went over to sit next to Georgia, and to calm her down a bit.
”Anything you need to talk to someone about, I’m here”, Alex reassured her. Georgia smiled.
Back in the Carboniferous period, some people were stranded there. They had walked for ages, and got nowhere. They had crashed here on a bus, and needed to find that light again.
DING DING! DING DING! DING DING!
