The team were in the ARC after a busy week, and were glad to have a day off.
“I know Mia’s ill, but where are Lloyd and Jenny?” Connor asked Nick.
“Oh, Lloyd’s gone to perform at the X Factor Live Tour and Jenny has gone to watch him. As far as I know, Harry’s off sick” he replied.
After a couple of minutes, the silence was broken by the unmistakable sound of the Anomaly Detector.
“We’re off!” Connor exclaimed, even though he wished they could have a rest.
“Where?” asked Sarah.
“Outside.” Danny told her.
“Well, obviously!” she retorted, but Danny pointed outside. The whole team peered out the door to see snow beginning to settle. People were in the streets, confused. Abby was shocked, but managed to state the obvious. “It’s snowing.... In April!”
The team put on winter gear and walked down the road towards the anomaly site. On the way, they saw a giant mammoth plodding down the street.
“Not again!” shivered Connor, who remembered last time a mammoth came to the present. As last time, reporters were there to get the big scoop. The team ignored them and jumped in the car, but it didn’t start!
“Engine’s frozen.” said Danny. “We’ll have to walk.”
30 minutes later, the team were trudging through a blizzard, along a road. Instead of cars, two mammoths walked down the road. Suddenly, the wind calmed, and loads of children came out to play again. The anomaly was at the end of the road, and just as Connor was about to start setting up the anomaly locker, five wolf-like creatures walked out.
“What are they?” asked Mitchell.
“To me, they look like Dire-Wolves.” said Connor, who could identify creatures better than anyone else.
While they talked, a child went over and patted one of the wolves on the head.
“Keep back from it!” warned Nick, but it was too late. Mitchell reacted instinctively to the death and aimed his gun at the pack, which was approaching the other children.
“No, don’t! You could harm a child!” commanded Danny. Luckily, the anomaly closed, and the sound distracted the wolves.
“It’s getting warmer...” noticed Sarah.
“The anomaly was bringing the cold!” realised Claudia.
However, seeing as the children had all ran indoors and the wolves could not go back, they turned on the team, and chased them down the street. Abby slipped in melting snow, and a wolf started biting at her toes. Connor tried dragging her away from the wolves, and she just managed to scramble out of the way before Mitchell shot the wolves.
“That was a close one!” sighed Nick. “Back to the ARC.”
