"Back to School"
Alex Johnston had been set the difficult task of building an Anomaly Detector for the ARC. He had to set the Detector to detect interference from the radio channel 87.6FM, then locate where it’s from, and there will be the anomaly. While he was building the Detector, Ben Taunton, Katie’s boss, came down with reports of a creature sighting in the nearby primary school. The newly formed team all got down to business and went to investigate.
The school’s headteacher greeted the team when they arrived.
“It was large, with big teeth. I saw it first, and rang the fire bell to get everyone out. I ran away from it, and into the playground, telling the teachers to take the children to the school next door with the records and phone their parents”, the head teacher told them.
“Thanks, we need you to show us to the big light, and then you can go and look after the children aswell”, Katie told him. The headmaster showed them the anomaly, and then he left them.
“Right, Mike and Sasha, could you watch the anomaly for me, we’re going to find the creature”, commanded Katie. So Katie’s part of the team went looking round the school.
“Is this all we have to do? Guard the anomaly?”, complained Sasha.
“We need to get in on the action somehow”, added Mike.
“How about we take a trip of our own?”, hinted Sasha.
Katie, Alex, Georgia and Jimmy were investigating all rooms of the school, but found nothing but broken down doors and knocked over lockers and bookcases. Suddenly, they heard a loud roar.
”It came from that way”, Jimmy told them, pointing. They started running the way the sound came from. They turned a corner and came face to face with a massive creature with sabre-teeth.
“On my count, we will run as fast as we can, OK?”, Katie whispered, “1..2…3!”. And the team started running. They ran as fast as they could back to the anomaly. The massive creature wrecked the corridor behind it.
“It…is…a…Gorgonopsid!”, panted Georgia, who was completely out of breath. They got back to the anomaly, and moved out of the way. The Gorgonopsid went completely through the anomaly.
“Phew. Hang on, where are Sasha and Mike?”, wondered Alex.
Sasha and Mike were walking through the land at the other side of the anomaly. They had seen some green flying lizards that were like the South East Asian Draco Volans, but were not quite them, according to Mike. They saw some larger creatures in the distance.
”They look quite peaceful”, identified Sasha. Suddenly, they heard some really loud stomping coming from behind. They turned around.
“Gorgonopsids come from the Permian era”, Alex told them, “Other creatures around at that time include the Coelurosauravus and the Scutosaurus, both of which are not harmful”.
“So their only danger is the Gorgonopsids? Right, we need to go through and get them back”, Katie told the team what they needed to do. They walked through the anomaly with their weapons at the ready. They saw some green lizards flying about.
“They’re the Coelurosauravus”, Georgia told them. They followed some footprints that the Gorgonopsid had left in the sand, and eventually saw the Gorgonopsid, and someone screaming.
“That’s Sasha, come on!”, ordered Jimmy, taking charge. Katie sighed. They went to distract the Gorgonopsid. Jimmy fired his gun in the air to get its attention. The Gorgonopsid turned round, and started pounding towards Jimmy. The whole team ran, even Sasha and Mike. They ran as fast as the could to the anomaly. Katie and her part of the team got through first, apart from Jimmy, who was still distracting the Gorgonopsid for them. The anomaly was starting to close as Sasha and Mike came through. Jimmy got through just as the anomaly closed, leaving the Gorgonopsid stuck on the other side.
They all went back to the ARC. Katie let Ben know of what Sasha and Mike did. He asked to see them with Katie.
”What on earth did you think you were doing?”, moaned Ben, “You could have died.”
“But we didn’t”, retaliated Mike.
“The main thing was we got them back”, interrupted Katie.
“Oh, just get out of my sight”, sighed an annoyed Ben. All three of them left his office.
