"Three breeding pairs of future predators!" Connor said indignantly, "Why did they have three breeding pairs. How could they let them escape through an anomaly?"

This was not the first time he'd said this and Becker had a sinking feeling it would not be the last. Becker's knee ached. He was getting too old for this.

The anomaly had opened onto a paved road. Connor's gizmo said they were in Nigeria around 1250. Sarah had already lectured them about the Kingdom of Benin. Becker wasn't sure the information would help.

"Well," he said, "let's go and stop a mass extinction."

There had been a horrific rush of activity: fighting a rearguard to the anomaly; bringing the bodies through; ambulances; shouting and ordering; getting back to the ARC.

Becker paused for a moment, his hands gripping the humvee's steering wheel, willing himself to get out of the car, make through the debrief and carry-on.

A scrap of paper fluttered on the passenger seat. He picked it up without thinking.

Sarah's scrawling script hit him like a blow:

Fetch Jenny's suit from dry cleaner
Buy anniversay present
Get hair done

Becker crumpled the note up and flung it out of the window.

"Is that music?" Danny asked, inclining his head towards the anomaly.

Everyone fell silent. They were standing in the middle of a field. There was nobody for miles and nothing to see except the ball of broken light. A woman's voice sang out faint but clear, a melody on the breeze. Sarah took a step forward.

"Sarah!" Becker said warningly.

"Non, je ne regrette rien."

"But," Sarah said.

Becker shook his head. "No exceptions."

Sarah sighed. "I bet it's backstage at the Paris Olympia through there."

"It's French isn't it," Connor said. "What does she regret?"

Sarah smiled. "Absolutely nothing."

Extract from ARC Report 532 by Captain Becker

At this point one of the velociraptors seized the anomaly detection device that Mr. Temple had place on a picnic table and carried it through the anomaly. I took the decision that the risk of contamination of the time line was low and opted not to pursue.

I was not aware, at that point, that the velociraptor had also stolen half a dozen coke cans, a toy car and a comemorative silver jubilee plate - all left behind by members the public. I believe Miss Lewis is dealing with the claims for compensation.

Characters: Lester, Becker, Donna (Doctor Who), Monty

Notes: I'm absurdly pleased with this idea of Donna as Lorraine's replacement - equally formidable but in a totually different way.

It had been an unusual day at the ARC, an animal rights' activist infiltrated the building and opened all the cages.

Then Lester's new PA swiped an EMD from a terrified security guard ("Save me from baby soldiers!") and stunned half a dozen compsognathi, a stegosaurus and the activist. After feeding Monty an apple ("More help than anyone else around here!"), she complained of a headache and gave herself the rest of the day off.

"Where did she come from?" Becker asked a shell-shocked Lester.

"Favour for a friend. Said she'd be noisy but competent and not to mention aliens."

Lester picked up the photograph and glared at it, presumably in the hopes that he could alter reality out of sheer annoyance. Then he dropped it back on the table. Lyle was rather proud of the way he'd caught the giant sauropod majestically silhouetted against the sunset.

"The anomaly closed you say, before Becker's team could repatriate it."

Lyle nodded and risked a grin. "Return to sender impossible."

Lester gave an exaggerated sigh and pinched his nose. "I'll phone the minister and tell him we need a private island. Oh, and tell Becker it's coming out of the tank budget."
