Primeval Stories Magazine Special Episode 1
"The Hunt"
Written by DalekSupreme08
It had been a long day. The workers piled more and more boxes on top of each other. They hated their job in the warehouse, but money was tight and a job was a job. Suddenly, a flickering light appeared, and some of the boxes flew open, firing metal objects into it.
“What the...” said one on the men, but he was cut short as the jaws shut upon his head.
At the ARC, it had also been a long day. The team had been working on some paperwork all day.
“I hate doing this!” announced Alex out of the blue. Just as he said that, the Detector went off.
“Looks like you’re in luck!” said Katie joyfully. She was beginning to enjoy chasing creatures around, now it was commonplace. The team got into the car and drove to the anomaly site.
The warehouse was deserted.
“Well, seeing as someone was killed, there must be a creature here somewhere....” deduced Jimmy. All of a sudden, a creature smashed through the boxes!
“A Ceratosaurus!” identified Alex. “But how do we return it to its era?”
“I’ve got an idea!” said Georgia. “If we go through the anomaly surely the creature will follow us? Then it will be used to its home and stay there, and we can go back?”
“Great idea!” Katie congratulated her. They edged through the anomaly, to be faced with a dilemma. It was like a spaghetti junction, but they had two choices. The team split up. Katie, Georgia and Alex went into one and Sasha, Jimmy and Mike went into the other. Katie’s team found themselves in the Cretaceous.
“Let’s go back and tell the others this is the right anomaly.” said Katie. But the Ceratosaurus went through, and stood in their way. It smelt home, and joined its pack. But when they went back through into the junction, both anomalies had closed. They returned to the present in shock about the events.
Meanwhile, in the Victorian era, Jimmy, Mike and Sasha were trapped.

"Demons"
Written by DalekSupreme08
The anomaly closed before them.
“NO!” yelled Mike. All three of them surveyed their surroundings. They were in an industrial looking city. Sasha picked up a newspaper. It said that the date was the 19th January 1867.
“We’re trapped in the Victorian era!” realised Jimmy.
Back in the present, Katie was feeling guilty. She felt responsible for what had happened. It was even worse for Georgia and Alex, who remembered when Katie was trapped. Suddenly, they snapped out of their thoughts as the Detector went off.
“It’s in a field” said Alex in a deadbeat voice. They got in the car and journeyed there.
Meanwhile, in 1867, the lights went out at a mental hospital. However, there was something flickering...
Jimmy, Sasha and Mike were having a wander around when they heard the screams. They rushed into the mental hospital, and a woman was there, with a nurse next to her.
“There’s a demon!” she said.
“What do you mean, demon? What does it look like?” asked Mike.
“Don’t listen to her – it’s her condition.” said the nurse. But the woman looked normal. They knew that back then they locked up normal people.
“Do you think it’s a creature?” whispered Jimmy.
“Maybe.” said Sasha. She shone a candle into a corner, revealing a horrible beast. It was a camouflage creature from the future.
“It’s not a demon, we have to think rationally.” said Sasha. But there was no time to ponder anything, as it chased them into the anomaly.
In the future world, there were hundreds of the beasts. Jimmy and Mike had guns, and fired at them. They noticed another anomaly, and went through into a field. The anomaly closed, but a creature had already come through. Both guns were out of bullets. But with no warning, the creature fell to the floor, and a gunshot rang out. It was Katie’s team.
“Good to have you back!” she said with a grin.
“NO!” yelled Mike. All three of them surveyed their surroundings. They were in an industrial looking city. Sasha picked up a newspaper. It said that the date was the 19th January 1867.
