I must have fallen asleep on the bathroom floor because I woke splayed in Sarah Jane's bathroom. I lifted my head off the ground and instantly felt a stabbing pain from it.
"Ow" I moaned as I clambered up and unlocked the door.
I glanced down and saw a small piece of paper at my feet. I picked it up and unfolded it. It was a note. It said
' Hi Rose, just wanted to tell you that Sarah Jane and I are out helping an alien get home. Didn't want to wake you. Clyde says he's sorry and he hopes he didn't hurt you. We'll be back hopefully at around about lunchtime. Ring if you need anything. From Luke. '
I folded it up again and put it in my pocket. I walked downstairs and ate the bowl of cereal that was set out for me. Then I went and got changed and finally curled up on the couch and turned on the tv.
After about 15 minutes, my phone beeped and I pulled it out. There was a text message from an unknown number. I opened it up and it said
'hi, it's Luke. We need your help. Meet us at this adress: 104th Denlain St, Ealing. It's quite close to Bannerman Road. Hurry!'
I jumped up and grabbed my coat from the back of the sofa. I slipped back into my trainers and bolted out the door, pulling it behind me. I ran to the end of my street and turned left I looked up to see a sign saying 'Denlain Street'. I started running again until I reached 104. By then I was puffed out. It was an old warehouse. I crept through the old rusted gates and up the drive. First I tried the main doors but they had been welded together so I set off round the side and found the old fire exit that was slightly ajar. I pulled it open further and stepped into the semi-darkness.
I snuck my way through a couple of corridors until I found the main storage facility. I walked into the centre of the room and found nothing. I was about to leave, when suddenly the lights flashed into life and I blinked in the now bright light. I looked around and saw a figure standing beside the control box.
"Hello?" I said to them. The figure turned around and I saw it was a boy who looked about my age. I started walking in the direction of the boy. When I was still about 5 metres away his lips curled into an evil looking smile.
Just then a cold hand appeared from behind me and clamped itself over my mouth. An arm wrapped itself around my middle and my arms, holding them down. Then the person lifted me off my feet and started walking in the opposite direction of the boy. As they turned me around I saw another boy come into my line of vision. A very farmiliar boy. A boy with dark skin, black hair and a smile matching that of the soldiers that had been around on the day that I had met him. It. Was. Clyde.
The person holding me put me down and released their grip. I instantly made for the door but a foot tripped me up and I tumbled to the concrete. As I lifted my head I saw a pair of black converse right in front of my face. Someone behind me pulled me to my feet and held me in place so I couldn't run and they then dragged me back to the centre of the warehouse.
"Clyde?" I said, still surprised that he was here."
"Obviously" he drawled. "Anyway, more to the point..."
"What do you want with me?" I blurted out, earning a glare from Clyde.
"I have to rescue Rani". Suddenly his face seemed less malevolent and with more emotion. "because it's your fault she's at UNIT."
"I tried to help her, I was in a containment vortex how was I surposed to help her." I shouted, struggling against the boys grip.
"Where's Luke and Sarah Jane?" I questioned Clyde, as the thought popped into my mind.
"I'm assuming they left you a note." I nodded.
"Thats where they went. To help an alien."
"But I got a text from Luke saying..." then I realised. "That was you, wasn't it?"
He nodded in reply.
"So why am I here?" I wondered.
"I called UNIT, at 11 o'clock they are coming here with Rani. They are willing to exchange you for her."
"Clyde how could you?"
"Hmmm pretty simple. Called some of my friends from my old school, said I needed help. I set this up, sent you a text and you showed up." he shrugged "Seems pretty simple to me." he grinned and walked up to me. "Now you are going to cooperate" he bent down and using one hand gripped my cheeks so I couldn't talk. "So I can get Rani back."
I shook my head out of his grip. Again I struggled against Clyde's friend's strong hold. He held me tighter and I gasped as the breath was squeezed out of me. He lifted me off the ground and took me over to a chair that Clyde had placed out for me. Clyde and the boy dragged me over and sat me down. They held me in place while the first boy I had seen first tied me to the chair.
When they were done they stepped back, as if to admire their work. Clyde looked at his watch and mumbled "10:45, 15 minutes" and then he turned to his friends and started up a conversation. I struggled even harder, fear starting to bubble in my stomach. Clyde turned back to me and so did his friends. They began to laugh, yes seeing me tied to a chair must be very amusing. Eventually I gave up, may as well struggle when I'm in a fit state to run away.
I sat there and watched as Clyde and the other boys sip coke while we all waited for UNIT.
10 minutes later Clyde's phone buzzed. He stood up and walked over to me. As his face drew closer to mine I saw his eyes were murky and more grey than their usual brown. Clyde put his mouth next to my ear and whispered "They're here"
Suddenly the door burst open and there stood a large group of people and man at the front of the pack was holding an unconcious Rani...
Ok. Really excited now. This is a big cliffhanger. I don't even know what's gonna happen. Well I know roughly but that's beside the point. I'll try to update as soon as I can. Remember to review if you liked it. Thanks for reading. Bye
