A/N: Ok, this one is really short, but I thought it was best as the two last episodes go more or less straight after one another. The next, and last, one will be longer. Promise!
Becker's Thoughts - Chapter 9
Becker sat in the passenger seat of the car, his mind in turmoil. Helen was back! And Johnson was dead. And it had all happened so fast. The artefact was gone, and now they were chasing Helen Cutter through time. Becker shook his head. No. That last bit sounded too much like the TV.
But giant prehistoric rhinos! Ar- arth- something. Giant rhinos. And he, Captain Becker, had got to evacuate a campsite while the others went after the anomaly. Or, in Danny's case, broken into Johnson's headquarters. Which was still more exciting than an evacuation.
Becker was startled out of his self-pity by Danny elbowing his arm lightly. "You alright, mate?" he asked, wearing his trademark grin.
"Yeah," Becker said, not wanting to admit his arrogant inner thoughts. Wait… was he really arrogant? Surely someone would have teased him about it if he was. Was that what Sarah didn't like? Was that why she seemed to be avoiding him, preferring to go into the woods than stay safe, with him? Sarah is an indoors kind of girl, thought Becker, surely she would have wanted to stay by the cars, near him.
Abby's elbow interrupted his thoughts this time, as she leaned forward. "So, what's the plan?" she asked Danny.
"We get to the racetrack, go through the anomaly, and we end this," Danny replied grimly, not taking his eyes off the road.
"No," said Becker. "We have to wait for back-up." The others ignored him. "Last time we went into the future, we all nearly died. We have to go in there prepared this time, if we want to stand a chance of getting Helen."
Danny patted his arm reassuringly as the racetrack came into view. " Of course, mate," he said. "Of course."
Becker sat back, resigned to his position of spoilsport soldier.
A/N: So, what do you think? Any ideas for the last one that you want me to do? No promises, but I'll give it a go if you come up with any. Today, the magic review button will conjure ... cute fluffy bunnies! And also a picture of Connor I found where he is really happy, and he looks like a cross between a puppy and a diictodon. If you can see this in your mind's eye, you are honour-bound to review. But no pressure. ;D
