Series 3 Episode 6
"The End"

“NO!”, Leila Samuels screamed. She could not believe that the team escaped from her. She sent the Raptors back through the anomaly. She had used neural clamps to control them. She closed the anomalies.
“I know where they’ll be”, she thought aloud, and grabbed her car keys…
 
The team were being debriefed by Ben in his office. Georgia was still in floods of tears after loosing Alex.
“Do you mind? I’m getting incredibly sick of people sulking and distracting me from my work!”, Ben was shouting by the end of that sentence. Georgia got out of her seat and ran off.
“I’ll go”, Lucie decided.
”Me too”, Katie agreed. Sasha, Mike and Jimmy, who were standing, took the girls’ seats and continued the debrief with Ben.
 
Georgia ran down the office ramp, through the Main Operations Room, down the corridor and out of the door. She bent over and vomited. It was too much for her to take. The person she loved was gone.
“Georgia!”, she turned around to see Katie and Lucie calling her name. They ran over to her. Georgia’s mascara was running down her face. Most of it was already on Katie’s yellow blouse.
“I can’t take it”, Georgia was opening up, “I’ve never lost anyone close to me. I still have my parents, and my grandparents. I’m only 20. The only death I cried at was Elisabeth Sladen, from Doctor Who”.
“Oh yes. God rest her soul”, Katie remembered that day in April, when it was announced that Elisabeth Sladen, who was Sarah Jane Smith in Doctor Who, had passed away.
“Wait, I know that car”, Lucie interrupted, pointing to a car pulling up.
“It’s Leila!”, Georgia remembered.
“Get inside and warn the team!”, Katie ordered. They ran inside, with Lucie and Katie either side of Georgia, holding a hand each.
 
Leila walked out of her car. They’ve seen me. She picked up a gun from her boot and hid it in her inside jacket pocket. She walked up to the security guard.
“Hi, I’ve got an appointment with Ben Taunton, in there”, she pointed towards the building. The soldier looked too, and she hit him round the head with the gun when he wasn’t looking. She continued to walk into the ARC. She was troubled by the code system that allowed access to the doors. Leila decided to run back to the security pod, and she watched back to this morning on the CCTV cameras. She zoomed in as Katie entered the code to gain access. “45291” She memorised the code and typed it in. She entered the ARC…
 
“Leila’s here!”, Katie shouted, when she entered the Main Operations Room.
“She won’t be able to get in”, Ben shouted back down, “She doesn’t know the code”.
“You think?”, a voice came from the doors to the corridor. It was Leila, “Everyone, on your knees, NOW!”
Sasha, Ben, Jimmy and Mike walked down from the office and joined the girls, on their knees.
“What happened to you, Leila?”, Lucie asked. She was shushed by Katie, but she carried on, “Why are you doing this?”
“I saw many things. I was walking through a forest one day. I saw this light. I reached to it, and walked through it. The next thing I knew, I was in a different world. The light disappeared, and I was trapped. I had to live in the past for years, travelling from era to era through these lights, which you call anomalies”, Leila explained.
“And it turned you mad”, Sasha added.
“I wouldn’t call it that”, Leila corrected Sasha, “But anyway. It’s a nice place here”.
“What do you want, Leila?”, Lucie butted in.
“I want to get my revenge on you, Lucie”
“What did I ever do to you? You were the one who picked on me, called me names, and just bullied me in general”
“You told on me, you grassed me up”
“Sorry, how old are you?”, Lucie got up.
“On your knees!”, commanded Leila.
”But that’s it, you won’t shoot. The anomalies have messed with your head. Everything’s been made 10 times worse, and them some”
Leila had tears coming to her eyes.
”Put the gun down Leila. None of us want you to shoot anyone”
“What she said”, came a voice from behind. It was Claudia Brown from the main ARC team.
“Claudia!”, Katie was shocked.
“Katie”, Claudia smiled. “We’ve got someone for you”. Katie looked up to see Alex standing there, a little tatty and bloody.
“He stumbled through an anomaly down by us. I thought I’d escort him back up”, Claudia revealed. Georgia looked up, and her mouth almost hit the floor in shock.
“Wait! Stop this now!”, Leila was losing control over the ARC, “Aah, my head!”. She cried in pain, and put her hands up to her head.
“It’s the anomalies. They’re getting too much for her head. She can’t imagine what she was like before. Suddenly, Leila dropped down to the floor. Lucie ran over, and checked her pulse and breathing pattern.
”No pulse, and she’s not breathing”, Lucie announced.
“Can we try CPR?”, Jimmy suggested.
“Too late. It was getting too much for her. It would continue to hurt her head. She wouldn’t cope”, Claudia told her.
“One step ahead, are we sis?”, Katie laughed.
“Always”, Claudia smiled.
“Alex”, Georgia looked up to him.
“Georgia”, he replied.
“It’s really you…”, Georgia was stunned.
“Yup, as good as new. Well, almost. My hair needs a bit of a wash”, Alex laughed.
“Why did you do that to me?”, Georgia was hitting Alex in the chest; not that hard though. Alex just put his arms around her and hugged her, and she cried on his shoulder.
“I love you Alex”, Georgia admitted.
“I love you too Georgia”, Alex replied.
”Are you just saying that to make me feel better?”
“No”
Georgia looked up and smiled at him. They continued their hug. A round of applause came from the others, as they stood there, watching the new happy couple.
 
“All’s well that end’s well”, Katie said to herself, sitting in her office. She’d had a weird day. She spent time in the Cretaceous era, seen her sister, lost and found a member of her team, and defeated the baddie. It’s all in the job description at the ARC. Never a dull day. And they were sure to have many more exciting days in the future, together. Not just the team, but also Alex and Georgia together.
