Luke was running though some woods late at night. The boy was running as fast as he could, something was chasing him and Luke could hear it was gaining on him.
The teenager suddenly hit the ground he had tripped over a tree root; he turned to see a dark figure approaching him.
"You now belong to me luke smith," The figures raspy voice hissed.
"Leave me alone" Luke pleaded.
"I'm afraid I can't do that," the figure continued.
The figure grabbed Luke and picked him up.
"The time has come to set me free Luke smith," the figure added.
"Let me go" Luke yelled as he woke with a start.
"Hey it's ok it was just a nightmare" Sarah Jane told him.
"He's coming for me, and I'm scared" Luke replied.
Tears began to run down Luke's face so Sarah Jane pulled him into a hug.
"Don't be afraid it's what he wants," Sarah Jane said.
"But I don't know how to stop him mum" Luke sobbed.
"Then we'll find a way," Sarah Jane continued.
"Remember we're always here Luke" Maria told him.
"Yeah your not alone" Sanjay answered
"So whatever it is it's got to deal with us first" Clyde replied.
"And we'll fight it as we always do together," Rani added.
Luke turned to his friends and smiled.
"Ok can someone please explain to me what's going on here?" Haresh suddenly said.
"Yes, who are those people?" Gita continued.
"And more importantly what do they want with us" Carla replied.
"I guess the time has come for you all to learn the truth," Sarah Jane answered.
She then took a deep breath.
"We fight aliens," Sarah Jane added.
Sarah Jane then told Haresh, Gita and Carla everything.
"So my daughter fights aliens," Haresh said.
"It's all true I didn't believe it at first when I found out" Alan told them.
"So all those late nights and day's out" Gita continued
"Our kids were saving the world," Carla added with a proud look on her face.
But before anyone could say anymore the van stopped.
"Looks like we've arrived" Sarah Jane simply said.
The van doors were then opened and everyone shielded there eye's from the blinding light, as group of Eldritch's men the came into the van and grabbed everyone.
They were then taken to a holding cell where two figures waited.
"Looks like we have some company at last Steven" one of the figures said.
"Doctor is that you" Sarah Jane said.
"Who else did you expect it to be," The seventh doctor answered.
"Wait you're the Doctor" Maria said.
"Well one of them I understand there's now 11 of me" The doctor replied as he winked at Sarah Jane.
"But you've changed your face again" Clyde continued.
"Oh no it's because we haven't met yet young man" The doctor answered.
"But we have" Rani added.
"Only from your point of view" The doctor explained.
"Ok I'm confused professor" Steven replied.
"Time travel does that to you my boy" The doctor said.
"Doctor what did they do to the brigadier" Sarah Jane asked.
"There using an implant to control him" The doctor explained.
"But why?" Luke asked.
"Because they want the behemoth," The doctor answered.
"Oh no" Luke said as his thoughts then went back to the first time he faced Eldritch and saw the behemoth.
Maria and her dad had been captured by Eldritch and Luke only had one choice.
"Are you insane" Josh almost yelled when Luke explained his plan to his friends.
"I know what I'm doing josh" Luke replied.
"Sure you do" josh continued.
"But how can you be sure Eldritch is going to agree to trade Maria and her dad for you" Danny asked.
"Because he needs me more than he needs them," Luke answered.
"Bit sure of yourself aren't you" Josh snapped.
"Luke's right josh, Eldritch needs him to finish that experiment" Sanjay told him.
"So what if this plan of yours does work, what then" josh asked.
"Maria's dad is gonna know where the computers Eldritch is going to give away are" Sanjay told him.
"So if we wreak them Eldritch can't carry out his plans" Danny continued.
"Exactly" Sanjay replied.
"Alright I may not like it, but I guess it's the best plan we've got" Josh added.
"So how do we contact Eldritch" Danny asked.
"Leave that to me" Sanjay said as he sat down at Luke's computer.
Sanjay typed in a few commands on the computer and Eldritch soon appeared on the computer screen.
"I'm impressed boy" Eldritch began.
"Oh really" Luke replied.
"Not many people can break though my firewalls to contact me," Eldritch answered.
"Save it Eldritch, I have an offer for you" Luke told him.
"Let me guess, you wish to trade yourself for the Jackson's how noble" Eldritch said.
"The way I see it you need me more than you need them," Luke continued.
"You would be correct" Eldritch replied.
"So do we have a deal?" Luke asked.
"Oh yes I accept your offer" Eldritch answered.
"Just tell me where and when" Luke added.
"Meet me at the factory tonight, I'll be waiting" Eldritch told him.
That night Luke and the others arrived at the factory.
"Welcome" Eldritch greeted.
"Where's Maria and mr Jackson" Luke demanded.
"Relax I'll take you too them" Eldritch continued as he turned to leave.
Luke and the others followed Eldritch who led them to the main control room, where
Maria and Alan were waiting.
"Luke" Maria said as she ran to him.
"Maria, your alright" Luke said as he hugged her.
"I am now you're here" Maria replied.
"I've kept my side of the bargain now it's your turn" Eldritch told Luke.
"What's he talking about" Maria asked.
"I'm trading me for you and your dad" Luke explained.
Maria couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"You can't do that Luke, I won't let you," she told him.
"Don't worry I know what I'm doing" Luke said with a wink.
Luke turned to Eldritch.
"First you let Maria and her dad leave with my friends" Luke demanded.
"As you wish" Eldritch replied.
"Go with Sanjay and the others" Luke continued.
"You sure about this" Maria asked.
"Trust me" Luke replied with smiled at her.
"You come back safe" Maria added as she kissed Luke on the cheek and left the others.
"Lets begin shall we" Eldritch told Luke.
"Lead the way" Luke replied as he left with him.
Eldritch led Luke to a room where there was some sort of machine with a chair on front of it.
"Behold the behemoth" Eldritch told him.
"It's a computer isn't it" Luke replied.
"Yes a product of the cold war, Built by the great miss pendragon" Eldritch told him.
"It's a bit dated" Luke continued.
Eldritch turned to Luke.
"Dated, This was once the greatest computer on the planet connected to everything, It will be once again" eldritch continued.
Eldritch walked up to the behemoth.
"The behemoth was awakened 19 years ago, but it chose to destroyed itself instead of obeying me" Eldritch added.
"So that's what your up to you want to give the behemoth a new mind," Luke said.
"Exactly but no human mind could do it alone I need thousands" Eldritch answered.
"So as soon as everyone turns on their free computers you've got them," Luke replied.
"That was the original plan but now all I need is you" Eldritch told him.
"Me?" Luke said in surprise.
"Your mind is perfect for the behemoth the brain power of 10.000 humans" Eldritch replied.
"You know who I really am," Luke continued.
"He knows exactly who you are Luke smith," A voice hissed.
Luke knew that voice, he quickly turned to see the trickster appear.
"You" Luke simply said.
"Everything is ready my lord" Eldritch told the trickster.
"What are you up to this time trickster" Luke demanded.
"Your mind connected to the behemoth will give us enough power to open a portal to the shadow dimensions, freeing my master and the rest of the pantheon of discourt," the trickster explained.
"Aren't you forgetting something, don't you need my agreement" Luke told him.
The trickster began to laugh.
"He already has your agreement, remember you agree to trade your self for Maria and her dad" Eldritch continued.
As Eldritch spoke guards appeared at the door.
"There's no escape," Eldritch added.
Outside Sanjay and the others had come up with a plan of their own. They came to a building guarded by Eldritch's men.
"The power generators are in that building" Alan explained.
"But how do we get past the guards" Maria asked.
"Leave that to us" Danny said.
Danny and Josh headed towards the guards.
"Hello there me and my friend here are intruders," Danny told them.
"Hi" josh added.
The guards charged at josh and Danny and begin to fight them.
"Now's our chance go" Sanjay told Maria and Alan as they quickly headed towards the power room.
Back in the server room Luke was put in to the chair in front of the behemoth and a large metal bar appeared and went across Luke's waist.
"Why are you doing this Eldritch" Luke demanded.
"I serve chaos and once the master is free only chaos and darkness will reign" Eldritch replied.
One of Eldritch's workers pressed a few buttons on the behemoth, and the chair moved back into the behemoth, as large metal box came down over Luke's head.
"Mighty behemoth expected this boy so you may live again" Eldritch shouted.
Luke winced with pain as his mind was connected to the behemoth.
Meanwhile Sanjay Maria and Alan had now made it into the power room.
"Where's the main switch?" Sanjay asked as he looked around.
"Doesn't look like there isn't one" Alan replied.
"But we're running out of time" Maria continued.
"There's only one way out of this" Sanjay said as her pulled out a disk shaped object.
Sanjay pressed a button on it and K9 appeared.
"K9" Maria said.
"Greetings young mistress" the metal dog greeted.
"No time for that now K9, Luke's in trouble we need the power out" Sanjay told him.
"Affirmative master Sanjay"
K9 activated his laser and fired at the power generators overloading them, this sent a power surge into the behemoth, Eldritch held his head in pain.
"Behemoth" he yelled as he fell to his knees.
The behemoth began to spark as the chair with Luke in came out of the machine and realised him.
Luke collapsed on the floor as Sanjay and Maria appeared in the room.
"Luke" Maria yelled as she and Sanjay ran to him.
"Hold tight" Sanjay told her as he pressed a button on the disk shaped object.
All 3 of them then disappeared as the behemoth exploded.
"But the Behemoth was destroyed" Sanjay said snapping Luke out of his thoughts.
"Not all of it" A voice told him.
Sanjay turned and saw Anna Tellos walking out of the darkness of the cell.
"You" Sanjay hissed.
