Chapter II

---

Earth, 1993

Two police men stalk the streets of contemporary London, one with an iPad looking device and the other with a baton. They both have Taser guns strapped to their right legs. They walk up to a junkyard labelled 'I.M Foreman' and spot a body lying on the floor next to the double blue doors leading into the scrapyard. "Sir, I'm getting a life sign from the body" The man with the device spoke as he scanned the poor victim, it showed two hearts

"Two hearts? It must be broken" His partner remarked

"I've checked it twice, still giving the same" Suddenly, the body reached up his hand and grabbed the man's trouser leg. He had blonde hair, a patchwork coat with a horrible colour design, yellow and black stripped trousers and brown shoes with green cuffs. "God! This guy is still alive!"

"Save her, I... I have to save her" The blonde haired man murmured then dropped his hand off the police man's leg

"We better get him out of here before night fall. This is beyond the barriers, scavengers will be round here soon" The two hoist him up and carry him away to their police car before zooming off into the safe zone. Ever since 1964 there had been attacks by what could only be described as 'Alien hostility' and it all started when a meteor crashed in Leeds back in 1963 and what came from it was a creature from beyond the stars. It wrecked Leeds and so the government sealed off points in Britain to ensure no more attacks on populated cities, and the area's that weren't sealed off were dubbed safe zones. As the police car pulled up to an iron gate and the security men let them in, a shadowy figure watched from a distance, he tried to hide behind a building so no one would spot him. He was wearing a faded worn out red velvet coat and a long, tattered, raggedy multi coloured scarf. He had a bushy, grey, dirty beard and grey, frizzy hair which had various tiny scraps of rubbish scattered in it. The figure also held a beer bottle which he accidently dropped and attracted the attention of the two security men at the gate. They flashed their torches at the noise

"Scavenger! Clear off you waist of space, go back to your dustbin... Oh, I mean 'home'" The left security guard joked with his partner and sure enough the figure slowly wandered off but stopped in the middle of the road, his back still facing the gate.

"This isn't right, you know. This isn't how everything should have ended" He calmly called "I don't know how but I will soon" And with that he staggered off into the night.
