Set in Anthony Horowitz's book; Necropolis. Continued from page 170. This is what I believe should have happened.

The car slammed into us painfully. I knew exactly what had happened straight away. It was no accident. I saw the look in the drivers eye. He was focused on crashing into us. I got out of the car, barely realising what I was doing. I felt a hand pull me back. I turned to see Jamie's face, full of fear.
"Matt, no. He's a shape-changer. Like the one I saw at Scathack Hill." he said.
"OK." I believed him straight away.
I heard Jamie gasp beside me.
"What is it?" I asked, worried.
"She is here. That is why the shape-changer stopped us." he gasped. I saw him searching around for people's thoughts. "I have found her." he announced and got out of the car. I saw two bicycles, padlocked to a rail. I knew what to do. The smell of burning toast filled my nostrils. I followed Jamie outside.
"Where are you two going?" Richard asked as we rushed over to the bikes. I broke the locks without touching them and the bikes fell to the ground. Jamie got on one of the bikes and cycled away towards the direction of Scar. I followed quickly. I felt cold air rush past me. Richard shouted at me, trying to grab my attention. He ran after us. I saw Jamie point to a taxi. It stopped just in front of the red lights. We drew level with the car as the lights turned yellow. The door opened and a girl got out. She looked the same age as me and Jamie. She clearly came from Asian origin. She mouthed the word Matt to me. She rushed over towards us. A woman got out after her. She shouted at Scar who completely ignored her and carried on running towards us. I glanced as the lights turned green. Scar reached us in time though and we were safe. For now.
Jamie was staring transfixed at the woman that had shouted at Scar. She had changed into a hideous half shark half human creature. The new creature had human legs and a shark head. It charged towards us. Several people got out of their cars, screaming. A few others changed into other hideous creatures. Richard reached us panting. The shape-changer that had crashed into us earlier was now on its way as well. An eagle with a human head landed before us. Many more crowded round us. The old ones had clearly now revealed themselves to the public. 11 creatures were blocking our every route. They were all as hideous as the one next to it. Suddenly they attacked.
"Attack yourselves." Jamie ordered a couple of them and they began hacking each other to bits. I pushed two away from us with my mind. Scar sent lightning straight into one of their heads. Three surrounded Richard and he surely had no chance. Jamie must have got inside of their minds because suddenly all three of them collapsed to the ground, not breathing. Jamie smiled at his good work. I threw one forcefully down a drain and its body was severed into several pieces. Scar dealt with the last one. Richard got up slowly and wiped blood from his cheek.
"That was fun." he said sarcastically.
"Let's go to St Meredith's and go through the door to find the other two." I advised.
"Yes. I think that would be a good plan." Richard agreed and we left the mangled bodies of the Old Ones and set off in a taxi towards the old church.
Good? Please review to tell me what you think. Thanks!
