"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."

"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.

Jenny slammed the phone down and took five deep breaths, reminding herself that it was not the BBC's fault that Nick Cutter had once again haranged the Queen, this time in front of a startled Clare Balding, while a Protoceratops disrupted a Royal Ascot race in the background.

It did not help that this was a day of escaping Diitodons, an ill-judged practical joke involving Becker's shotgun and a phone call from the Minister.

An anxious looking Connor stuck his head around the door.

"Whatever it is, no!" Jenny said. "I need coffee break!"

"Umm... the coffee machine has broken?".

"What are you doing?" Lester asked with mild exasperation.

Connor was standing over the diictodons holding treats out above their heads. "I'm teaching them to beg!"

One of them (Nancy, Lester thought) twitched slightly. Connor promptly gave her a treat.

Lester sighed. "I can see this is going to take some time."




Three weeks after Connor vanished into the Cretaceous, Lester lined up the two diictodons.

"We are going to work on a project for when Connor gets back," he told them firmly.




"Oh my God! Nancy just begged properly! Lester, come and see!"

Lester allowed himself a contented smile.

Connor and Jess wrestled with the signals on the anomaly detector.

"I agree with Jess," Connor said. "It might be an anomaly. It might be nothing. If it is an anomaly it's deep. The only signal we've got is from that nearby oil rig."

"What's the chance that it is an anomaly?" Lester asked.

Connor and Jess exchanged helpless looks. "Calculating probabilities for events we've rarely encountered..." Jess began.

"Your best guess please."

"Maybe 25%," Jess said doubtfully.

Lester sighed. "We'll tell the rig to keep an eye out, but won't close them down."

Deep under the waves, something moved.

It was close to dusk and Connor was some distance from camp. He'd been foraging and then taken a detour when he spotted what he was fairly certain were T-Rex tracks.

He was down in a river valley when he happened to glance up at the ridge and saw the unmistakable silhouette of a man against the setting sun. Throwing caution to the winds, he called out but the man didn't hear. The undergrowth was too dense to climb up and investigate.

Connor was never sure whether it was a good or bad thing that the man never found them.
