Sid and Nancy struggled up the stairs towards the nursery, Rex was waiting at the top for them. It was now three weeks since that new thing had arrived in the flat, and since then, not one of them had had a decent night's sleep. Once or twice (and on one occasion thrice), they had been woken abruptly by that thing's wailing shrieks, and now they had had enough. They were off to see just what this thing was and if there was anything they could do to stop its incessant howling.
After about an hour of clambering up and falling down the stairs, Sid and Nancy joined Rex at the top. For a moment, they stopped to catch their breath, then together, the three animals scurried over to the nursery door. Gently, Rex nudged it open and they went in.
As they entered it, they heard Abby humming a soft, melodious tune. Looking up, they saw her cradling the thing in blankets and holding a bottle to its mouth. She hadn't noticed them come in, so they felt brave enough to walk slowly up to her. Not noticing them, Abby carried the thing over to the bed with bars on it, then slowly, gently, she placed it in it.
At this point, Rex could bear it no longer. He had to find out what this thing was, and now was the perfect time to do it. With a chirp he launched himself into the air and landed on the edge of the cot. Looking down, he saw something unbelievable.
Lying asleep in the blankets was a tiny little human, with black hair like Connor's and a round, boyish face like Abby's. His pudgy little hands were grasping his blanket, and he was sucking the corner of it as he slept. Rex was awestruck by the sight of him, he was easily the most incredible, most unbelievably beautiful thing he had ever seen. And in that moment, all of the negative feelings Rex had been having about him melted away like butter.
Suddenly he heard Sid and Nancy's squeaks. He looked behind him to see Connor lifting them both up to the level that Rex was currently perched at. Connor was smiling at them.
"Hey guys," he whispered. "This is my new son, Nick."
Abby smiled and stroked Rex on the head. The ceolurosaruvus leapt down into the cot and nuzzled Nick under the chin. The baby let go of his blanket and lifted up his tiny arm, which he then wrapped slowly around Rex. Rex chirped in alarm at first, he hadn't been expecting that. But then he realised that the baby meant him no harm, and never would. He wasn't dangerous or malicious in any way at all, instead he was tiny and helpless and innocent. And Rex knew from that moment on that it was his duty to try and protect Nick whenever Abby and Connor couldn't.
Above him, Sid and Nancy wiggled their legs at Nick. Meanwhile, Connor and Abby smiled at each other from the opposite sides of the cot. At last the entire Temple family was together.

If you are unhappy with Primeval's cancellation, you may be pleased to know that ITV might be reconsidering their decision. Apparently all of those fans dissing them off for it is becoming quite overwhelming. In order to make this possibility a reality, we need to continue to sign those petitions.
If you want proof of these claims, or want to know where you can find such petitions then get in contact with either me or with xcookiemonster94x. Please sign the petitions, and maybe we can make the possibility of Primeval's return a reality.
