Catching up, when someone appeared through an anomaly, was supposed to be more of an interrogation. Becker, Danny and Emily had experienced it before.  Jess hadn’t.

It wasn’t as tough as they’d made out.

“Technically you went AWOL,” Lester told her.

“You’d have stopped me going.”

“Indeed. I had no field coordinator.”

“My deputy…”

“Resigned! Said I was ( Read more... )

“Genuine dinosaur eggs for sale!” the advertisement read. “Hatch your own baby triceratops for your kids to ride on - just like Jurassic Park!”

“That was Jurassic World,” Connor corrected.

“Dino Store,” Matt read. “Not very imaginative.”

“No. That was my main concern on seeing this. Not very bloody imaginative!” Lester snarled. “Right after worrying ( Read more... )

The Yowie was Australia’s Yeti. Known as the Bush Monster, stories about it went down through the generations. There were even cave paintings by Aboriginal tribes dating back long before the first overseas settlers arrived.

And now there were reports of a sighting. Not just one sighting but many. Captured on camera.

“It could just be someone ( Read more... )

“Don’t tell me it’s the Loch Ness Monster,” Lester had groaned.

It wasn’t. It was worse.

Early future predators. Becker hoped rather than believed they’d killed them all.

Going home, Connor flicked the truck’s radio on.

“Many miles away something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake…

“Turn that off!” Becker growled.

“I think ( Read more... )

Charlie in Accounts was a pest.

Over the course of two months he had tried his luck with most of the female staff at the ARC. Abby had got Rex to poop on him. Lorraine had kneed him in the groin. Emily got her Time Tribe knife out.

Jess was preparing a complaint but was worrying about delivering it. So he thought her skirts were short. That ( Read more... )

“It’s a massive Leedsichthys. Stuck right in the middle of the bloody Channel Tunnel. Massive panic when all the water rushed in but Becker got the anomaly closed and the water pumped out. Didn’t realise the thing was in there till it was too late. Now there’s a battle over the corpse. French say it’s on their side. Claim they want it for a ( Read more... )

“So let’s see what the new ADD can do.” Connor settled himself down on the big red chair in front of it.

“I don’t think you should touch that,” Becker warned.

“It’s fine, I’ll be able to work it out, no problem,” Connor assured him.

Lester said nothing just winced, hurried back to his office and locked the door behind him.

“It’s your funeral,” ( Read more... )

One of the worst things about the post-convergence fame of the ARC was the way they were forever getting dragged into the media. But really, a Royal Variety medley from Grease?

“That was Disney,” he told Jess. “They want to open a park.”

“What, like in the films?”

“Exactly like that. Electric fences, human-sized hamster balls, real dinosaurs, recipe ( Read more... )
