Sarah Jane, Luke, and Lee Graham, were running through the streets of the estate.
"Keep going, it's right behind us," The lieutenant yelled.
Suddenly a laser blast shot towards them, destroying a car in front of them.
"This way" Sarah Jane told them as she led them down another street.
Meanwhile Clyde and mark and the others, were in the space marines control room brad and dusty had set up, at the old water works,
"So you lot are from the future," Mark asked.
Clyde and the girls had just finishing explaining, why they had travelled back in time.
"That's right" Clyde answered.
"17 years in the future to be exact" Rani replied.
Mark sat down trying to take it all in.
"Ok, this is getting a bit weird, even for me." Mark continued.
Rick and Marcus, were now sat close to the Graske, Rick poked him.
"Hey, you leave Graske, alone" The Graske snapped.
"Sorry, your just my first alien" Rick said.
He turned to mark.
"This is so cool" Rick added.
This made mark smile.
"It sure is" Mark answered.
Just then the space marines radio crackled.
"Lee Graham to base, repeat Lee Graham to base" Lee Graham voice called.
Dusty went over to the radio and picked it up.
"Base receiving, where are you sir, we were starting to get worried" Dusty answered.
"I'm afraid we've ran into a trigiod, and we're under attack," Lee Graham quickly explained.
Brad ran over to his weapons.
"Tell the lieutenant, I'm on my way" Brad said as he left the room.
"Lieutenant, brads coming to assist you" Brad continued.
"Roger that, stay alert the other trigiod's may have located you" Lee Graham replied.
"Understood sir, good luck" Dusty said.
"Thanks dusty, Lee Graham out" The lieutenant added.
He turned to Sarah Jane and Luke.
"Helps on the way" he told them.
Another laser blast shot towards them hitting the ground.
"Lets just hope it gets here in time" Luke replied.
High above them a space marine shuttle headed for earth, which had been detected by UNIT, at the school they were using as a forward base, a solider came up to mike.
"Colonel, we've detected another radar contact," he said.
Sergeant Gaskill turned to the solider.
"A re-entry curve from low orbit" He asked.
The solider nodded.
"Yes" the solider, answered.
Sergeant Gaskill began to smile.
"That'll be out reinforcements," he explained.
Gaskill turned to mike.
"I'll need your communication system, to set up a landing beacon," he told mike.
"Be my guest" mike answered.
But UNIT were not the only ones who had detected the shuttle, so had the alliance, on board there ship the man with the mechanical eye stood before his commander.
"Report" the commander demanded.
"We have detected a space marine shuttle, heading for the planet earth, we have traced it back to its place of origin" the man explained.
"Excellent, move us into position, and prepare to attack" the commanded ordered.
"By your command" the man replied as he bowed and left the room.
Back at the UNIT base, a lone solider was patrolling, outside in the school's playground, as he walked up and down he heard a noise.
"Who goes there?" the solider said as he raised his gun.
The solider slowly walked forwards, he then realised something was behind him, the solider spun around, to see it was just another UNIT solider.
"Wow easy" the other solider, said as he raised his hands.
The first solider lowered his gun.
"Don't sneak up on people like that Carlos," he told him.
"Sorry Jay" Carlos apologised.
"I take it you're here to relive me" Jay continued.
"Aren't I always, anything to report" Carlos asked.
"Nope all quite, I'm not one to tempt fate, but I kinda wish something would happen" Jay answered.
"I know what you mean," Carlos added.
As the 2 continued to talk, they didn't realise they were being watched by a trigiod.
Sarah Jane, Luke and Lee Graham, were still being chased, when Luke triped and fell.
"Luke" Sarah Jane yelled as she stopped.
She was about to run back to him, when a laser blast shot towards her.
"Mum" Luke shouted.
Lee Graham wasted no time, and grabbed her.
"Get down" The lieutenant told her as he pulled Sarah Jane to the ground,
He then rolled on the ground and fired his pistol, in the direction the blast came from, but the trigiod fired again, hitting the lee's arm and knocking him to the ground.
"Lieutenant" Sarah Jane said as ran over to him.
"Get out of here" Lee Graham demanded.
"No we're not leaving you behind" Sarah Jane replied.
The trigiod appeared before them, its eye's flashing red as it aimed its shoulder cannon. Suddenly a hail of bullets hit the trigiod's back.
"Surprise" brad turners voice yelled.
The trigiod turned and fired at it's attacker, brad jumped out of the way and pulled out his knife, which he threw it at the trigiod cutting the power cable to it's laser cannon.
"Got ya," brad said as he pulled out 2 laser guns.
Brad opened fire hitting the trigiod several times, before it jumped over brad and fled.
"Looks like I got here just in time" Brad continued.
He put his guns away and walked up to Lee Graham.
"We better get after that trigiod before it repairs itself" Lee Graham told him.
The lieutenant tried to get up but Brad stopped him.
"Easy, first lets get that arm looked at" Brad replied.
Brad pulled out some sort of medical device, and scanned the lieutenant's arm.
"Just a laser burn, soon sort that" Brad added.
Brad took a metal tube from one of his pockets, which he ran down the lieutenant's arm, Sarah Jane and Luke watched with amazement and the burn slowly disappeared.
"Thanks Brad" Lee Graham said.
"Anytime, now lets get that trigiod shall we" Brad replied.
Brad held out one of his hands, which the lieutenant took, and Brad helped him up, Lee Graham then turned to Sarah Jane.
"Go on ahead, we'll join you back at our base, as soon as we've dealt with that trigiod" he told her.
Sarah Jane nodded.
"Good luck" she answered.
Brad then removed something from his wrist that looked a lot like Mark's scanner.
"I've programmed the location of the waterworks into this" Brad told her.
He handed Sarah Jane the scanner, which she put on her wrist.
"If you run into trouble press this, it will send out a distress signal and it was also surround you in a force filed that will protect you until we get to you" Brad explained.
"Thank you" Sarah Jane replied.
Back at the UNIT base sergeant Gaskill had now set-up the landing beacon for the space marine's shuttle.
"There we go, landing beacon active," Gaskill said.
"Where you planning on bringing them down?" Mike asked.
"On other side of the forest, can't have the trigiod's finding them" Gaskill answered.
"But won't they been seen by the public" one solider asked.
Sergeant Gaskill turned to him.
"Relax, trigiod's aren't the only ones that can cloak" Gaskill replied with a grin.
"Colonel" A voice shouted.
Mike and Sergeant Gaskill turned to see a UNIT solider run into the room.
"What is it corporal" Mike asked.
"Sir, We've lost contact with all our outside patrols" the solider explained.
"Trigiod" Gaskill said as he pulled out his gun.
Meanwhile Sarah Jane and Luke had almost reached the old water works.
"I hope the lieutenant and his friend will be ok" Luke said.
"They'll be fine" Sarah Jane replied.
Sarah Jane looked at brads scanner.
"We're almost there," She continued.
Sarah Jane continued to walk, but Luke didn't move.
"What's wrong" Sarah Jane asked as she stopped.
"Thought I saw something" Luke answered.
Sarah Jane went over to Luke, and looked in the direction he was.
"Well, there's nothing there now" Sarah Jane added.
Luke turned to her.
"Guess I must be seeing things" he told her.
Sarah Jane smiled and put her hand on Luke's shoulder.
"Come on let's get to the waterworks" she replied.
At the school Sergeant Gaskill and Mike Yates were now outside, and had found the soldiers that had been patrolling, on the ground, Gaskill checked them.
"Are they?" mike started.
Sergeant gaskill slowly nodded.
"A trigiod's here alright" He Answered.
Mike pulled out his radio.
"Greyhound to Trap 1, This is a code red, repeat code red, a hostile has infiltrated the base, all personnel to remain on maximum alert" Mike told everyone.
Lieutenant graham and brad turner, were still searching for the damaged trigiod, when they found some blue liquid on the ground, brad went over to it and scanned it.
"Looks like it's more damaged than we thought" Brad said.
"Lieutenant graham, come in please, do you read" Dusty's voice called.
The lieutenant grabbed his radio.
"Yes Dusty, what is it" Lee Graham asked.
"The shuttle with our reinforcements has just landed, but we've detected another ship heading for the moon base, sir it's a base star" Dusty explained.
Suddenly a laser blast flew towards lee graham and brad. They both dived out of the way and looked around to see two trigiod's decloak in front of them.
Alarms began to sound throughout the space marine base, captain Chapman ran into a room where a man stood.
"Commander, they've found us," the captain told him.
The commander turned to him.
"Begin the evacuation" The commander replied.
The alliance base star slowly approached the moon, onboard the man with the mechanical eye was once again reporting to his commander.
"We are within striking distance of the marines base," The man told his commander.
"Let the attack begin" The commander ordered.
Hundreds of small ships, began to launch from the base star, and headed for the moon.
Back on earth Dusty was busy grabbing his weapons.
"I have to go and help the lieutenant," he told everyone.
"Dusty" Mark shouted.
Dusty turned and quickly went over to him.
"There's wave after wave a small objects heading for the moon" mark explained as he pointed at a radar screen.
"Their launching their fighters" Dusty replied felling helpless.
Just then all the lights went out.
"Everyone stay close" dusty said as he cocked his gun.
An explosion ripped through the UNIT base, as soldiers ran in all directions.
"Greyhound to UNIT HQ we are under attack, we need back up at once" Mike Yates said into his radio.
But there was no reply, all mike could hear was static. He turned to sergeant Gaskill.
"Dam it, the trigiod must have, taken out our communications relay" mike told him.
Just then a section of roof came in, as the trigiod dropped into the corridor.
"Get down" Sergeant Gaskill yelled as the trigiod fired.
Sarah Jane and Luke had now arrived at the water works but they we're not alone.
"That's far enough miss smith," A voice told them.
Sarah Jane and Luke turned to see a figure.
"Who are you" Sarah Jane demanded.
The figure remained silent instead he raised his fingers to his lips and whistled, Sarah Jane and luke watch in horror as the slitheen appeared and charged towards them.
"Run" Sarah Jane Screamed.
