"The Forest of Dean"
Guest Starring: Lenora Crichlow
The Forest of Dean was extremely quiet. Especially in one area, which has been sealed off. This was due to this ball of light appearing there, which, according to experts, is a doorway in time. Security soldiers were standing outside the fence every day, every night, doing long and hard shifts. Suddenly, they heard a shimmering noise. The 2 soldiers standing there turned around, but saw nothing. They just dismissed it and turned back round. They then heard a loud roar, and they turned around again. They saw a massive sabre-toothed creature stomping towards them. They started to run, but it was too late. No-one could hear their screams.
DING DING! DING DING! DING DING!
That ringing sound of the Anomaly Detector went off again. This time, Sarah was first there. After all, Connor was busy in the ARC gym.
“It’s in the Forest Of Dean”, announced Sarah.
“That’s miles away!”, exclaimed Danny.
“Not only that, but the first anomaly that we investigated was there”, Cutter told them.
”I remember, it lead to the Permian era, didn’t it?”, added Claudia.
“Indeed it did”, confirmed Abby.
”Well, we better get down there right away. Lester, could you get someone to watch it for us?”, asked Jenny.
“I’ll try and get someone to keep an eye on it for you”, Lester shouted back from his office.
Much much later that day, after several arguments about what music to listen to on the way, the team arrived. The team had to show their passes to be allowed past the security gate. A man in a suit called Sid Rogers greeted them.
“Are you Lester’s people?”, Sid asked them. The team nodded. Sid began lecturing them about the situation, “When I arrived here, I noticed the gate had been broken through from the inside”.
“Something must have come through the anomaly then”, interrupted Mia.
“As I was saying”, continued Sid, glaring at Mia, “2 men were found dead when I arrived, so this must be serious”.
“OK. We’ll get onto it straight away, thanks Mr. Rogers”, said Cutter. Sid went away. Cutter continued, “Right, we need to find this creature as soon as possible”.
“The top suspect for this era is of course, the Gorgonopsid”, Connor told the team.
“We’ll need to find it soon, as it could cause a lot of trouble. We’ll stick to the same teams as the other day for splitting up. Jenny, Lloyd, Claudia and Harry stay with Cutter here, and I’ll take Connor, Abby, Mia, Sarah and Captain Mitchell to look for the creature”, Danny commanded. They headed off.
While they were walking through the forest, Mia and Connor were flirting. Abby had a disgusted look on her face. She eventually got so annoyed with them she put her foot down.
“Will you two stop flirting!”, Abby shouted.
“Abby, what is this about?”, asked Mia.
“Like you don’t know”, rudely replied Abby. She went over to Mia and slapped her. They started fighting. Connor and Danny tried to break it up, but Connor got hit in the face accidentally.
”Why is it that whenever women fight over me, I get punched in the face”, complained Connor. He and Danny carried on trying to break them up. At last, they were pulled apart after several accidental punches in the face for Danny and Connor, and bruises on the face for Abby and Mia.
”Abby, go back to Cutter”, commanded Danny. Abby stormed off in a strop. Mia gathered herself together.
On the way back to the anomaly, Abby heard some stomping. She knew what it was, and started running before it could catch up with her. Abby was stopped in her tracks, as the Gorgonopsid pulled on in front of her. Abby ran back, but she was too slow. The Gorgonopsid bashed into her and carried on running. Abby lay unconscious on the floor.
The Gorgonopsid was fast approaching Danny’s part of the team. Sarah spotted it.
“You know that Gorgo-whatsit”, Sarah said, sounding worried.
“Yeah, the Gorgonopsid”, replied Captain Mitchell.
“Whatever it’s called, it’s coming towards us now”, continued Sarah. The team split up again, with Connor and Mia going to the left, and Danny, Sarah and Captain Mitchell ducking to the right.
Back at the anomaly, Cutter was chatting with Lloyd.
“So, how are you settling in?”, Cutter asked Lloyd.
“Fine. You get used to the fact that you ate fighting prehistoric creatures after a little while”, joked Lloyd.
Mia jumped out of the hiding place after the Gorgonopsid had passed.
“Hey, Gorgy-thingy! Chase me!”, shouted Mia. She started running back to the anomaly. As she reached the point where Abby got knocked over, Mia also got hit. She got sent flying, and landed next to Abby. Captain Mitchell and Danny carried on distracting the creature, running to the anomaly.
“GET OUT OF THE WAY!”, shouted Danny to Cutter’s part of the team as he approached them. He ran through the anomaly, and the Gorgonopsid followed him. Captain Mitchell had stopped before the anomaly. The anomaly had started to close, and at the last second, Danny jumped back through.
Connor had stayed with Mia and Abby, trying to get them to wake up. He had checked their pulse, and both were still alive. Abby started to come around.
”What happened?”, asked Abby, starting to sit up.
“You got hit by a Gorgonopsid, like Mia”, explained Connor, “Take it easy”. The rest of the team came to find Connor, Abby and Mia. Harry called an ambulance for Mia. Then, Cutter got a call on his mobile. He answered it. After he had ended the call, he told the team the bad news.
”The Gorgonopsid had got out, remember? Well, after we’d met him, the Gorgonopsid killed Sid Rogers. It was one of Lester’s contacts on the phone. Lester had given him my number for emergencies. Luckily, the Gorgonopsid came back in here”, Cutter told them. The ambulance arrived, and took Mia away. Connor went with her.
Harry was texting Helen, and they decided tomorrow would be the day that they launch their plan.
