The Dumping Ground series four episode four
Introduction
Johnny and Tee Taylor have just been kidnapped by their step father Jake Lake's, but he just wanted to tell them that their mother was dead.
Olivia Adams has been kidnapped by a stranger who claimed to be her own father, but he clearly wasn't her father. The man kidnapped Olivia, because he and his friend just wanted to kidnap Danny Trevanion, and they succeeded in doing so. Billy Edwards has now captured Danny and he's taken him on a one way trip from South Africa to England.
Mike Milligan helped Cam Lawson rescue Johnny and Tee Taylor, and now he's gone to find Matthew Seed, Tracy Beaker, Liam O'Donovan, Lily O'Donovan and little does he know it yet but also Rosie O'Donovan and bring them all back to Elmtree house in the UK.
Chapter one
Billy Edwards' plane lands in the UK. Billy drags Danny Trevanion roughly off the plane there. Danny still remains a prisoner to Edwards. Outside the plane they find themselves facing a man, this man is carrying a gun in his hand. The man uses his gun to stun Billy with. The man then lowers his gun when he sees Danny.
"Thank you," Danny thanks his hero.
The man gives Danny a smile in response to his words.
"No need to thank me it's the least I can do after everything that you've done for my family," he informs him in response to his words.
Danny's left troubled by the man's information.
"I don't even know you," he tells him in response to his information.
The man then gives Danny a warm hearted smile which is all that he really needed right now.
"No but I know Lily O'Donovan I'm her father Steve," the man informs Danny.
Trevanion gives Kettle a big smile.
"You have such a brave daughter," he informs him.
Steve's left happy by Danny's information.
"Yes but she was naughty running away to South Africa like that, but off course your right I do have such a brave daughter," he tells him in response to his information.
Danny then looks directly at Steve.
"Her husband Liam cheated on her with my step-daughter Olivia," he informs him.
Steve's left horrified by Danny's information. Mr Kettle had known somehow that his daughter had made a mistake in marrying Liam. Steve looks directly at Danny.
"My good old friend Cam Lawson would like to speak to you if you have information on my daughter," he informs him.
Danny and Steve then disappear away from the plane together.
Chapter two
Olivia Adams has tried reasoning with the man who claims to be her father when he's clearly not her father, but in return he's just badly abused her. Renold Leck has used horrible violence towards the young girl. Renold's still keeping Olivia a prisoner at Mara lodge. Suddenly Matthew Seed breaks into the lodge by kicking the front door of the lodge down. Matthew's armed with a sword he found one laying abandoned in the bush at Leopard's Den. Seed's intentions are fixed on using this sword against his number one enemy at this exact moment in time (Renold Leck). Matthew doesn't know Renold's real name, he doesn't even know the name he goes by Renold Leck.
Matthew Seed still believes Renold Leck to be known as Simon Adams. Matthew waits at the entrance of the lodge until Tracy Beaker, Alice Trevanion and Liam and Lily O'Donovan come to join him in the lodge. The lodge is still covered in darkness and it's still freezing cold.
"What's the plan Matthew I don't want you are any of you to risk your lives for me and my family?" Alice questions her new friend.
Seed raises his hand to silence Trevanion in response to her question.
"You really don't stand a chance no offence of rescuing your step-daughter alive if I didn't risk my life!" Matthew snaps angrily at Alice in response to her question.
Seed's angry at Trevanion for not yet trusting or knowing him enough to know that he would put his life at risk for both her and her family without a second thought. Matthew looks directly from Alice to Tracy.
"We need a plan of action," he informs them both.
They both agree with Matthew's information as does Lily and Liam. Liam looks at Matthew.
"I'm not going to let Lily out of my sight, I'm going to protect her with my life," he explains to him.
Lily's left troubled by Liam's explanation to Matthew.
"Why are you wanting to protect me?" Mrs O'Donovan questions her husband in a troubled tone.
Liam then winks lovingly at Lily.
"Why do you think? Because I still love you with all of my heart, and nothing's going to make me ever change that," he says to her.
Liam then shares a loving kiss with Lily on the lips. Matthew is awfully excited and happy now, because his two favourite kids in the whole wide world have just got back together now. Liam then takes Lily lovingly by the hand.
"We must rescue Olivia!" He informs her.
Tracy then grabs Liam firmly by the arm to stop him from going any further throughout the lodge. Beaker looks at Mr O'Donovan directly in the eyes.
"You take good care of her, understand?" She questions him.
Liam then nods his head in response to Tracy's question.
"Always," he promises her in response to her question.
Liam and Lily then disappear together further into the lodge. Alice then looks from Tracy to Matthew.
"Do you know what I think?" She questions them both.
Matthew and Tracy both then shake their heads and shrug their shoulders in response to Alice's question.
"I think that you two would make a good item," Mrs Trevanion informs her two friends.
Tracy then smiles excitedly at Alice in response to her information.
"I couldn't agree with you more than anything there," she tells her in response to her information.
Matthew's left utterly horrified by both Tracy and Alice's words.
ARE YOU BOTH AS MAD AS YOU LOOK? TRACY WE BOTH HATE ONE ANOTHER, DON'T WE, AND YET I DO HAVE A CERTAIN FEELING TOWARDS YOU WHICH IS INFACT NOT HATRED BUT LOVE! I LOVE YOU TRACY BEAKER WITH ALL OF MY HEART! IT'S ONLY NOW THAT YOU APPEAR TO ALSO LOVE ME THAT I APPEAR TO ALSO LOVE YOU! I SEEM TO HAVE ALWAYS HAD THIS CERTAIN KIND OF FEELING TOWARDS YOU, TRACY BEAKER WILL YOU GO OUT WITH ME? ONCE WE'RE BOTH SAFELY BACK HOME IN THE UNITED KINGDOM THAT IS! Matthew screams the lodge down confessing his love towards Tracy.
He gives her location away to Renold Leck the enemy, but he doesn't give a rat's arse about that now. Renold sneaks up behind Alice ready to pounce on her, but she hears him approaching, and she rounds on her. Mrs Trevanion meets Mr Leck in battle. Matthew grabs Tracy and he shares a loving kiss with her on the lips. Alice does slap Renold hard across the face, but in return he just knocks her down to the ground. Renold then withdraws a gun from his jacket and he aims it down angrily at Alice. Matthew then winks lovingly at Tracy.
"Our romance will just have to wait," he whispers lovingly to her.
Matthew then rounds on Renold in anger.
"WHAT'S YOUR NAME?" He rages out in anger to him.
Matthew's used a really loud tone there not only to frighten Renold, but to also alert Lily and Liam that he's found him, and even Olivia (if she's still alive).
"Renold Kelly!" The man snaps back angrily at Matthew.
Seed recognises a hint of the truth in Kelly's tone. Renold told Olivia a lie then, listen carefully (his surname is in fact Kelly not Leck).
Chapter three
Both Lily and Liam O'Donovan (the loving husband and wife) have heard Matthew Seed raging out throughout the lodge, and they know now that he's located the enemy (Renold Kelly). The two O'Donovan's are continuing their search around the lodge for their dear friend Olivia Adams. Lily makes her way into the darkest room of the large, remember that the whole lodge is completely filled in darkness. Mrs O'Donovan hears a little whimper coming from the room.
"Olivia are you in here?" Lily calls out to her friend in a concerned tone.
Mrs O'Donovan then makes her way further into the room, and she stumbles across something which is in fact Olivia Adams herself. Lily realises that finally at long last she's located her friend, and she picks her up carrying her lovingly out of the room in her arms. Lily finds Liam standing just outside the room of darkness. Mrs O'Donovan looks at her husband in the eyes.
"I've found her now let's find the others!" She urges him.
Liam at this point doesn't embrace Olivia (his friend) but he embraces Lily (his wife).
"Well-done love, you're her hero!" Liam promises Lily.
Mr and Mrs O'Donovan now head down the corridor of the lodge together. Liam is now carrying Olivia in his arms, because she's a bit too heavy for Lily to carry.
Chapter four
Matthew Seed grabs a great big batten which he finds on the shelf of the room, and he uses it to knock Renold Kelly out with. While Renold's knocked out Matthew, Tracy Beaker and Alice Trevanion all escape out of the lodge together. Seed and his companion's find Liam and Lily O'Donovan and Olivia Adams all waiting outside the lodge for them. Matthew turns to congratulate Liam.
"Well-done my man!" He congratulates him.
Liam then raises his hand to silence Matthew.
"Nothing to do with me I'm ashamed to say my friend. Lily found her," he informs him.
Mr Seed then turns to congratulate Mrs O'Donovan.
"Well-done my friend you truly are her hero!" He congratulates her.
Olivia then struggles to open her eyes and she finds herself facing both Alice (her step-mum) and Lily (her hero).
"Where am I? What happened to that man?" She questions them both.
Lily then clears her throat and she continues to look at Olivia.
"I rescued you from that man, don't worry he's gone now," she promises her.
Suddenly Renold Kelly hurries out of the lodge clutching a gun in his hand. Renold aims his gun directly at Olivia, and he uses it to shoot her down with. Matthew then steps forward to face Renold in anger.
"You're going to prison! That's directly where you're going, to prison! Stupid man, why come after her when it's Danny that you want, and speaking of Danny where the hell is he? What have you done to him?" Seed demands answers from Kelly.
Renold then directs his gun directly at Matthew and he prepares to shoot him down. Seed remains strong standing on his feet.
"POLICE!" Alice suddenly screams out.
Both her and Tracy have sighted a police car approaching. Matthew turns round to face the car but then he quickly turns back to face Renold.
"Lower your gun! Haven't there been enough causalities already today?" Seed questions Kelly in a disgusted tone.
Suddenly the police car pulls up just beside Renold. Two muscular police officer's disappear from the vehicle, and they stand by Renold. The two officer's grab hold of the mad crazy fool, and they arrest him. Renold Kelly has now been arrested! Lily has now picked the dying Olivia up off the floor, and she knows that she must urgently get her to a hospital. Mrs O'Donovan knows that time is running short, and that Miss Adams' life hangs in the balance. Matthew then shakes his head at Lily.
"I'm sorry there's nothing you can do!" He apologises to her.
Lily then bursts out into great big tears of sadness, and Tracy pulls her into a loving hug to comfort her. Beaker looks at Mrs O'Donovan in the eyes.
"I'm so sorry," she apologises to her.
Just a quick reminder from the author, Tracy Beaker and Lily O'Donovan are like sisters to one another. Lily appears to be rather outraged! She appears to be quite angry at Tracy and Matthew for giving up on Olivia! The dying Olivia herself then gazes up into her friend Lily's eyes while lying dying in her arms.
"There's nothing you can do to save me my friend Lily. Deaths one of the certain things about life, and now I must journey on into the next life. Farewell for now, I know that someday we may meet again." Adams then informs Mrs O'Donovan.
Olivia then passes away in her friend's loving arms.
Chapter five
Surprisingly, Dan Anderson is now breaking in roughly into Elmtree house. Dan holding a sword angrily in one hand and a gun disgustedly in the other. Anderson's come to attempt to murder Tee Taylor again, because he's heard truthful stories and rumours that she's returned to the Dumping Ground. Dan has only just escaped from prison. A young man (Finn Sharkey) bumps into Anderson as soon as he steps foot in the house. Finn looks at Dan with suspicion in his eyes.
"I know who you are, I know exactly who you are, and you're Dan Anderson! Oh yes the stories about you haven't escaped neither my notice nor my attention! Yes before you ask she's here! Tee Taylor is indeed here right now in the Dumping Ground, but you must think I'm mad if I'm going to let you anywhere near her! Would you like me to call the police on you! I know that you're one of their escaped prisoner's! You may have escaped their notice, but you haven't escaped mine!" He snarls out to him in a warning tone.
Dan then grabs Finn roughly by the throat and he pins him hard against the nearest wall. Anderson then looks at Sharkey angrily in the eyes.
"TELL ME WHERE SHE IS! TELL ME NOW OR YOU'LL DIE AND YOU'LL LOSE THIS HOUSE!" He warns him in a raging tone.
Suddenly Dan Anderson is jumped on by Tee's partner (Frank Matthews). Frank knocks Dan roughly down to the ground. Dan then uses his sword to stab the young lad hard in the chest, and he uses his gun to blow his god dam head off! Frank Matthews is now dead, he's just been killed by the nutter Dan Anderson.
Chapter six
Finn Sharkey has gone into silence. He just gazes down at the dead boy he was supposed to take care of and protect in grave sadness. Meanwhile, while Finn is crying silently over the dead Frank Dan is setting fire to Elmtree house. Anderson is setting fire to the house by using a match. Only now does Finn realise what the mad man is doing. Dan then rounds angrily on Finn once more.
"WORD OF ADVICE RUN!" He warns him.
Dan himself then starts running and he races as fast as he can out of the house. Finn really doesn't know what to do. He knows that he can't leave Frank lying here (even though he's dead). Suddenly two men hurry into the house surprisingly not out, they are Danny Trevanion and Steve Kettle. The fire is now spreading rapidly throughout Elmtree house, not just in the hallway where they all are. Danny rounds on Finn.
"RUN!" He warns him but unlike Dan he appears to be really worried and concerned about him.
Finn doesn't know Danny but he recognises Dan as the missing Lily's father. Sharkey then look directly at Kettle.
"I'm not going anywhere without Frank!" He informs him.
Steve then looks directly at Finn.
"I'm sorry he's dead my friend," he apologises to him.
Danny is now starting to worry about everyone in the Dumping Ground not just Finn.
"FIRE!" Trevanion roars out in a warning tone to everyone in the house.
Finn then tries to walk quickly up the corridor but Danny soon stands in his way to block his path.
"I need to go and warn the others about the fire!" Sharkey informs Trevanion.
Danny then raises his hands to silence Finn.
"I've just warned everyone and I'm going to get everyone out of here alive! You go outside now our mutral friend Steve will take care of you," he promises him.
The door of the kitchen the bursts open and Cam Lawson, Tee Taylor (herself), Johnny Taylor and Elektra Taylor all hurry out of it as fast as they can. Finn hurries straight over to see Cam despite Danny trying to stop him. Sharkey pulls Lawson into a loving hug.
"Thank goodness your safe, I've been just so worried about you!" Finn informs Cam in a relieved tone.
Lawson then shakes her head at Sharkey in response to his information.
"I'm not safe yet none of us are!" She tells him in a sharp truthful tone.
Cam then gives Steve a smile.
"Found Lily yet?" She questions him.
Steve doesn't respond to Cam's question but Danny does. Trevanion looks at Lawson directly in the eyes.
"I have he hasn't," he informs her.
There's a long moment of silence
"Who the hell are you?" Cam questions Danny in a shocked tone.
Trevanion then gives Lawson a smile.
"I'll explain everything once we've all gotten out of here alive, but right now all you need to know is that I'm the mad whose going to save both your life and everyone else's in here!" He informs her.
Tee then notices Frank's dead body much to her horror.
"Oh my god no!" She moans out in an angry tone.
Finn then turns to face her.
"I'm so sorry," he apologises to her.
A ring off fire suddenly surrounds Frank's dead body. Tee suddenly starts to rush in the direction of the fire. She appears to want to die in the fire just as the man she loves lies dead in the fire. Finn suddenly grabs Tee and he roughly drags her out of Elmtree house to save her life.
Chapter seven
Thankfully, no one died in the fire, but Frank Matthews remains dead, and nothing's going to change that fact. Jody Jackson was wounded in the fire, because she put her life at risk to rescue Tee's little baby Gina. Faith Davies got a great big nasty burn across her face by escaping from the fire. Once they were all out of the house both Finn Sharkey and Danny Trevanion tried to put the fire out themselves, by using buckets full of water. Stupidly, no one fought about calling the fire brocade.
Despite all then attempts to end the fire neither Danny Trevanion nor Finn Sharkey was able to save Elmtree house. Danny then turns to face Cam Lawson.
"The house is gone now and nothing's going to change that fact, but there's a rainbow around every corner. There appears to be good news even when the bad news is much stronger than the good. Yes you've lost the Dumping Ground a place you and the people you have come to call your family called your home, but you haven't lost the people closest to you which you thought you had lost. I'm glad to tell you that Matthew Seed, Tracy Beaker and Liam and Lily O'Donovan all remain alive. I'm also happy to tell you that Lily gave birth to her baby on the journey from Great Britain to South Africa, and she's decided to call her Rosie after her late sister who sadly died last year. Matthew Seed and his companions have taken refuge at my family game reserve Leopard's Den!" Trevanion informs Lawson about a hell lot of things.
Cam's ever so relieved by Danny's information, as is Steve Kettle, and his family Shannay, Poppy and Jonah Kettle all will be too.
Chapter eight
Back to South Africa, when Matthew Seed, Tracy Beaker, Alice Trevanion and the two O'Donovan's arrived back at Elmtree house they were all surprised to find their old friend Mike Milligan waiting for them there. Alice doesn't know Mike, but Matthew introduced her to him. Matthew and Tracy decided to talk to Mike in the kitchen of the house.
"I want you all to come back to Elmtree house and Cam does too," Milligan informs both Seed and Beaker.
It's clear that Matthew, Mike and Tracy are all unaware that Elmtree house exists no more.
"We've built a life here for ourselves, and if Lily and Liam go back to England they'll be immediately arrested," Seed reminds Milligan.
Mike looks at Matthew.
"Yeah but once they've served their times we can all be a big happy family again," he promises him.
Tracy looks at Mike.
"I really want to see Cam again, but like Matthew I also want to protect the O'Donovan's," she informs him.
Lily and Liam O'Donovan then make their ways into the kitchen. Lily's carrying her baby girl Rosie lovingly in her arms. Liam gives Mike a smile.
"We've been thinking together and we've decided that we want to go back to the UK with you," he tells him in a promising tone.
Mike then looks at both Tracy and Matthew.
"You must respect their wishes," he informs them both.
Matthew and Tracy then look at one another.
"We'll go back to England," they then agree with one another at the same time.
Alice Trevanion then makes her way into the kitchen and Matthew turns to face her.
"I'm really sorry but me, Tracy and the O'Donovan's have all decided to go back to England with Mike," Seed apologises to Trevanion.
Alice now appears to be really angry with Matthew.
"You're leaving me in a heap load of trouble! Danny's just been kidnapped, Olivia's just been killed and you're leaving me to run a game reserve all on my own." She complains to him.
Matthew then looks at Alice.
"I'm sorry Mrs Trevanion but me and the people I call my family without any regret must leave you now," he apologises to her.
Matthew then turns to face both Tracy and the two O'Donovan's.
"Let's go now," he informs them all.
Ending
A plane takes off into the African sky. Matthew Seed, Tracy Beaker, Mike Milligan and the three O'Donovan's Liam, Lily and Rosie are leaving South Africa for what they believe to be the last time.
The end
