"Not Quite a Village Meeting"
Guest Starring: Robyn Addison
Harriet Stafford awoke. She was in the ARC. The team had worked a long hard night, and Harry fell asleep there. Next to her were Connor, Abby and Mia, who also slept there. Standing behind her was James Lester, who seemed furious.
“Who said you could sleep in my ARC?”, moaned Lester.
“Calm down Noah, you overworked us!”, Mia laughed. They were saved when Danny walked in and made a large bang opening the doors.
“Alright, alright! Keep your leather jacket on!”, smirked Connor.
”Ha ha very funny”, said a sarky Danny.
Ten minutes later, the rest of the team had arrived, and had no sooner left to go and investigate the next anomaly. Sarah explained her theories to the team on the way there.
“So we all have them then, have we all been through an anomaly?”, Jenny asked. Lloyd shook his head.
“What about you, Harry?”, Abby asked.
“When I first met Helen, I followed her through one”, she replied.
“So, if Lloyd were to move away, anomalies wouldn’t open near him?”, Claudia wondered.
“That is correct. Apart from the odd one. I need to investigate the chance of one happening far away. The only ones that have opened far away are the Forest Of Dean and Lincoln ones”, Sarah explained.
“That reminds me, remember my sister Katie? Well she is very busy up in Lincoln with anomalies. It must have affected her and/or her team”, Claudia told them.
They arrived at the anomaly location, which was the town hall. As with many anomaly places, it was empty. They went inside and saw the anomaly right in the middle of the hall.
“Let’s just have a quick scout around to see if anything’s come through”, Cutter told them. So, the team went looking around. They saw no anomaly, despite the Detector still beating.
“Guys, the anomaly should be here”, Sarah told them. Nothing was there, but the Detector was frantically beeping.
“Let’s have a look”, decided Connor and walked towards it. Suddenly he disappeared.
“Connor?!”, Mia worried. Connor reappeared.
“Woah, I was in the Cretaceous era!”, said a shocked Connor.
“Must be some sort of an invisible anomaly”, Sarah thought.
”You need to investigate more when we get back to the ARC. Try using the readings from the Detector and compare them to the ones on a regular anomaly”, Danny suggested. Sarah nodded.
“Look, what’s that?”, asked Lloyd. He was pointing at a creature.
“That’s a Raptor. I suggest you all stay still and quiet”, Cutter advised.
“Can you breathe a little quieter please?”, Abby asked Connor, who, despite meeting the Raptors 4 times before this, was a quivering wreck.
“I give up, RUUUUUUN!”, cried Connor. Harry facepalmed. Everyone ran outside, and so did the Raptor. It got distracted by a bus that went past and ran off into the street.
“CONNOR!”, shouted an annoyed Jenny, “We’ve gone and lost it now!”.
“Not quite, I can get Captain Mitchell to go and find it”, Abby remembered. She got out her mobile and phoned him.
The Raptor was frantically running around the town. It had attacked 5 people. Everyone else had time to run.
10 minutes later, Captain Mitchell arrived. He and his soldiers went scouting around the town to find it. They went down a dark alley, with the team following at a distance. The Raptor was there, eating some meat that it had picked from someone’s bin.
“Don’t shoot it”, Cutter whispered.
“Well, what do we do? Ask it nicely to come back with us?”, joked Mitchell.
“I bet we won’t even find the anomaly again”, joked Harry.
The Raptor saw them. It came running towards them. The soldiers tried shooting it, but it didn’t work. The Raptor ran out of the alley. It got distracted again and ran into the road, getting knocked over by a red bus.
Back at the anomaly site, Connor was setting up the Anomaly Locker. The soldiers had closed off the road until they had cleaned everything up. Connor pressed the button and the anomaly was locked. It was still unseen, thank goodness.
Everyone went back to the ARC. Sarah did some more investigating. She remembered all of the recent anomaly leads that have happened.
“We’ve had an anomaly that leaps out and grabs anything from it’s own era, we’ve had genes from anomalies and now invisible ones. Before we haven’t had anything else different”, Sarah lectured the team, “Something must be happening. We need to find out why”. Lily Nash, Cutter’s new girlfriend, interrupted them.
“Did you forget? We’re going to the cinema tonight”, Lily reminded Cutter.
”Ah yes, I must go”, laughed Cutter. Sarah continued her lecture.
While Lily and Cutter were at the cinema, they didn’t notice someone in the shadows at the very back watching their every move. Helen Cutter.
“Who said you could sleep in my ARC?”, moaned Lester.
“Calm down Noah, you overworked us!”, Mia laughed. They were saved when Danny walked in and made a large bang opening the doors.
