Sarah Jane car came to a screeching halt as she arrived at the hospital. She run to room to Luke's room follow by the teenage boy and arrived just as charlotte grabbed Luke.

"Luke!" Sarah Jane screamed.

"Get down" the man shouted.

Sarah Jane turned to see the man who took K9 with 2 laser pistols. Sarah Jane did as she was told and dropped down as the man fired a shot at charlotte hitting her right side.

"Oh my" Sarah Jane said.

She couldn't believe her eyes as charlottes form changed into some sort of robot. It dropped Luke and fired a shot at the man who dodged it as he returned fire. The robot quickly turned and jumped out of window the man ran too the window and fired 2 more shots at the robot but it was gone.

"Dam it," the man cursed as he banged his fist on what was left of the window.

He turned to Sarah Jane who was now holding Luke.

"You two ok?" he asked.

"Yes we're alright" Sarah Jane replied with a nod.

"I can't believe it's you," she added.

"It's been a long time miss smith," the man continued.

"Who is it mum?"

"Luke this is sergeant mark Harkins"

"Well sergeant major before I resigned"

"So you've left unit" Sarah Jane continued.

Mark nodded.

"Yeah unit isn't what it once was"

"I know I try and keep my distance these days"

"Well it got to a point when I wasn't happy with how they were doing things so I decided to leave and go freelance" mark explained.

"So now you're an alien hunter" Luke asked.

"Yep me Sanjay here and his little brother Sam"

"So what was that thing that attacked Luke?"

"It's called a trigiod it's an infiltrator dam good one too. It has the ability to look like anything or anyone dangerous blighters at the best of times," Mark added.

"So it disguised it's self as that girl, so where's the real girl" Sarah Jane asked.

"Still in the hospital room Sam is with her now"

"So why did it come after me"

"Probably the same reason we we're following you" Sanjay replied.

"K9"

"You got it. When a trigiod is on a mission first thing it does is eliminate anything that could be a treat to it and K9 being alien Tec would be deemed a threat and in turn you Luke, I'm sorry I stole him I thought he might have been the trigiod at first"

"Don't worry about it" Luke said with a smile.

"Yes lets just find this thing before it hurts anyone else" Sarah Jane added.

After all the excitement Sarah Jane mark and Sanjay left Luke who had now been moved to another room to get some rest. Luke rang josh to tell him they had found K9 and later that day josh Danny and the other arrived to see how he was.

"Your looking better mate" josh told his friend.

"Yeah the doctors say I should be out by the end of the week"

"So you managed to get your metal dog back," Alex continued.

"Yeah turns out the guy that put me in here had him"

At least he did in the cover story mark and his mum had come up with Luke thought.

"He came after you again didn't he?" josh asked.

"Yeah I guess he was trying to keep me and the girl quiet. She'd managed to escape him so knew where he was hiding out. So mum went there and found K9"

"But not the guy" Danny added.

Luke shook his head.

"He had just left to come here luckily mum worked out what he was up to and got here just in time. But he got anyway.

Luke turned to look at K9 who was in the Conner of the room.

"But at least we got K9 back, K9" Luke called.

"Yes master" K9 asked as he rolled up to Alex and the others.

"That's so cool" Chris said.

"I know you think he was real," Danny continued.

"He's a bit disco and isn't K9 a bit of a cheesy name?" Nathan added.

"I think it suites him" Lisa said as she stroked the metal dog

"Glad you got him back Luke, well we've got to go back to Foxly so we came to say good bye"

"Alright Alex, it was great to meet you all and thanks again for last night"

"Maybe next time we come over there won't be any trouble" Nathan told him.

"Yeah best keep an eye on josh and Danny for us" Chris continued.

"Will do"

"And take care of your self as well" Lisa told him as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Ooohhh" everyone else said together.

Luke simply smiled as josh and the others turned to leave.

"Me and Danny will see you later after we've seen this lot off" josh told him

"Bye everyone"

Everyone said their goodbyes and left Luke's room.

"Well K9 who have thought life in oxford would be so exciting" Luke told his friend.

Sarah Jane had now gone back to Luke's room to get him some clothes and was trying to switch luke's computer to contact mr smith to let Clyde and Rani know what was happening but was having trouble switching it on.

"Why won't you work?"

Mark joined Sarah Jane.

"Problem" he said.

"You know, I can deal with alien technology from across the universe and yet I can't switch on a simple computer" Sarah Jane told him.

"Well em things on earth do need plugging in"

Mark pointed towards a mains plug on the floor.

"Oh I guess that would help" Sarah Jane said as she plugged the computer in.

The computer sprung into life and soon Clyde and Rani appeared on the screen.

"Sarah Jane" Rani greeted.

"How's Luke doing" Clyde asked.

"He's doing just fine. Did you two find anything?"

"Seems you were right Sarah Jane" Clyde added.

"Yeah that girls not the only one who's gone missing" Rani continued.

"I see you got quite the team Sarah Jane" mark added.

"The best, Clyde Rani this is mark" Sarah Jane introduced.

"Please to meet you" mark greeted.

"Oh he's a bit of alright," Rani said to Clyde.

"Hey time and place" Clyde told her.

"Are those two?"

"Me and Luke think so" Sarah Jane whispered.

Suddenly mr smith began to bleep.

"Alert alert"

"What is it mr smith" Sarah Jane asked.

"I am detecting an alien presents near you location" mr smith explained.

"Trigiod it must have picked up your transmission"

Mark quickly pulled out one of his guns.

"What's a trigiod?" Clyde asked.

"The thing that attacked Luke"

"Sarah Jane we have to go now" mark demanded.

"I'll explain later" Sarah Jane said as she left the room with mark.

Sarah Jane and mark quickly headed outside.

"Why has it come after us?" Sarah Jane asked.

"It obviously considers us a threat now"

Sarah Jane opened her scanner.

"It's coming from the east"

"Looks like I must have damaged more that just it's morphing circuit. I must have hit its cloaking device as well" mark added.

"It's got a cloaking device"

"Yeah guess I forgot to mention that"

"Good job you damaged it then"

Suddenly several laser bolts came towards them. Sarah Jane and mark quickly ran for cover.

"Well I didn't damage its laser cannon" mark told Sarah Jane.

Mark turned to her.

"You need to make a run for it I'll cover you"

"I can't just leave you mark"

"No time to arguer"

Mark fired at the trigiod as Sarah Jane made a run for it. The trigiod returned fire and only just missed mark. He pulled out his other gun as the trigiod fired again. Mark jumped threw the air to dodge the attack and fired both his guns at the trigiod hitting it's laser cannon destroying it.

"Bulls eye" mark shouted.

The trigiod turned and mark saw its eye's flash red.

"Uh oh"

The trigiod lunged at mark and grabbed him.

"Hey"

Sarah Jane appeared with her sonic lipstick and aimed it at the trigiod arm damaging it. The trigiod dropped his pray and before mark could grab his guns the trigiod fired a cable at one of the buildings and flew onto the roof and disappeared.

"You ok" Sarah Jane asked as she helped mark up.

"Yeah thanks I owe you one" mark replied.

"We'll call it even," Sarah Jane added.

Sarah Jane quickly scanned the area.

"Well looks like it's gone I've lost it"

"It's been badly damaged. It won't attack again until it's repaired it's self"

"Then we need to find it before it does"

Sarah Jane turned to her scanner.

"Mr smith"

"Yes Sarah Jane" mr smith answered.

"Can you track the trigiod?"

"Yes but I will need help to triangulate it's position"

Sarah Jane turned to mark.

"We need K9"

Luke sat looking though the window at the stars when Sanjay came into the room.

"Just checking on you. Do you need anything?" Sanjay asked.

"I'm fine thanks, where's your brother"

"Oh he was dozing off so I've left him in the waiting room to get sleep"

Sanjay turned to leave.

"I'll just be outside" he added.

"Sanjay wait, why don't we get to know each other a little better"

Sanjay turned back to Luke.

"Alright" Sanjay replied as pulled up a chair and sat down.

"I can't tell you want a honour it is to meet your mum. I've heard so much about her"

"She's the best mum ever but your dad's pretty cool"

"He is but he's not my dad well not my real dad I'm adopted" Sanjay explained.

"So am I well sort of"

"Really"

"Yeah I was created by a race known as the bane to be the perfect human. I've got the brain power of 10.000 people"

"Well that explains your DNA readings"

"So what happened to your real parents" Luke asked.

But Sanjay suddenly went silent.

"Sorry I shouldn't have asked"

"No it's ok Luke. 12 years ago one of those things came to my village and it killed everyone including my parent. Mark was part of the army unit that was sent to deal with the trigiod but marks entire squad was wiped out only me and mark survived"

"So is Sam adopted as well?"

"No he's marks son he was only a few months old when mark adopted me. We both know were not real brothers but we've never known any different. So as far as we are concerned he's my little brother and I will always be his big brother"

" Wish I had a brother or sister"

Luke looked really sad.

"Well you've got friends haven't you?"

Luke nodded.

"Yeah Maria Clyde and Rani are the closest friends I've got"

"Then you do have brothers and sisters in a way"

"I guess you right Sanjay"

Luke smiled. Just then Sarah Jane and mark came running into the room.

"Mum"

"No time to explain Luke we need K9"

"How may I be of service mistress?" the metal dog asked.

"I need you to help mr smith triangulate that things position"

As Sarah Jane explained mark quickly set up a laptop and reconnected with mr smith.

"Clyde Rani" Luke said as his two friends appeared on the laptop screen.

"Luke how you feeling" Rani asked.

"You had us all a bit worried mate," Clyde added.

"I'm fine just a few bruisers"

"Time for that later" Sarah Jane told them.

"Mr smith connect with K9 and locate the trigiod" Sarah Jane added.

"Connect to K9 now" mr smith replied.

"There it is" Clyde said as a red dot appeared on a map of oxford on mr smith's screen.

"Where is it heading" Sarah Jane asked.

"Looks like small industrial estate" Rani answer.

"Confirmed there appears to be an electronics factory on the estate" mr smith added.

Mark looked worried.

"Oh no if that thing is able to repair its systems it will be more dangerous than ever"

Will Sarah Jane and the others be able to stop the trigiod in time find out in the next part of We Are Not Alone.
