Series 3 Episode 9
"Drowning the Sorrows"
Connor was ready to jump into the canal. Abby had driven her car into it. The Dracorex that had broken out of its pen was watching. It clearly felt a connection, and was going insane. Connor quickly phoned Cutter, who said he was on his way. Connor made the dive to rescue Abby.
Mia stayed behind at the ARC. She didn’t give a damn about Abby. Why should she? She was only mean to her.
Connor went underwater, holding his breath. Abby was doing the same, only just conscious. Connor opened the door with a struggle. He grabbed Abby, now unconscious, and brought her to shore just as Cutter and the team arrived.
“Is she OK?”, screamed Harry.
“She’s stopped breathing. She probably has a lot of water in her lungs”, Connor replied.
“That’s the Dracorex there! I’ll take you all to get it. Cutter, stay here with Connor and Abby”, decided Danny.
Danny and the rest of the team were luring the Dracorex towards them with Harry’s chocolate bar.
“That’s to go with my lunch”, she moaned.
”Stop it, you’re scaring it off”, Sarah hushed her.
The Dracorex followed them to a van that Captain Mitchell drove there. It got there, but Jenny’s phone rang and it ran off.
“Noooooooo!”, cried Danny in dismay.
Abby was choking up water. Connor wasn’t helping by letting his tears splash down on her already sopping wet body.
“It was Mia”, suddenly said Connor.
“What was Mia?”, asked Cutter.
“She was rude to Abby. She couldn’t take it anymore, especially after a funny couple of days anyway, and decided to take her own life”, answered Connor.
“I’m sure it wasn’t Mia’s fault”, reassured Cutter, “Abby’s just been having a hard time. Stress dies horrible things to the mind, I know”.
“Why, what happened?”, Connor wondered.
“When Helen left me. I was alone. No family. It drove me crazy. I nearly did what Abby did. I didn’t know where Helen was or anything. I just hope Lily doesn’t do the same”, Cutter told Connor.
“Gosh”, replied Connor.
The rest of the team came to tell them the bad news, as Abby spluttered and opened her eyes. Connor started smiling.
10 minutes later, everyone was on the hunt for the Dracorex again.
“A spot of déjà vu anyone?”, laughed Claudia. Everyone stared at her. She sunk in her seat.
The Dracorex was roaming around town, scaring everyone off. The team soon arrived, and didn’t waste a nanosecond. They scouted around the whole town, but no sign.
“How strange!”, said a puzzled Lloyd. Suddenly, they heard a scream from above the nearby building. The Dracorex was standing at the top.
“It’s gonna jump!”, cried Abby.
“What can we do to stop it?”, instantly mentioned Claudia.
“Nothing! If we walk up there, it will jump. If not, it will jump”, said a pessimistic Sarah.
“I’ll go”, decided Abby, “As you said Connor, it has some sort of connection with me. I don’t know why, but it does”. Abby went into the building.
When she reached the top, the Dracorex turned around.
“Come down. You must feel how I did when I drove the car into the canal. There is a connection. I know it. Don’t jump”, soothed Abby.
“Come on, that’s right, come down”, came a voice from behind. It was Mia. She went and stood next to Abby. The Dracorex had a think. It tried to step down, but slipped and fell the wrong way.
“Noooooo!”, screamed Abby as she went to lean over the edge. Mia cuddled Abby, getting her new t-shirt wet. They both went down to the ground.
“So sorry Abby”, sympathised Cutter.
They all went to the ARC.
“Sorry about what I said earlier”, Mia apologised. Connor was about to go and give her that ticking off, but when he heard that, he decided against it.
“No worries. These things happen”, accepted Abby. They smiled at each other.
