Episode 5: Slitheen School Part 5

Kaylie, Harry, Conner and the two girls gasped and closed their eyes as Bradley and his gang pulled their triggers, but then nothing happened. Conner opened his eyes to see Bradley and his gang on the floor rubbing their eyes and holding their heads.

“Is someone gonna tell me what’s going on?” Beth asked.
“It must be a school play”, Catherine said stupidly.
“But how come all the people are down”, Harry asked.
“We don’t know it’s everyone”, Conner said, “It might be just Bradley and them”.

Just then Zac came running through the school gates.
“What’s up Z?” Harry asked.
“The slitheen are chasing me”, Zac said, “I mean I just broke that machine like the doc told me to and they go totally mad”.

“I don’t understand”, Catherine said.
“You don’t understand anything”, Bradley said as he joined the group.
“Right, you lot get running as there are aliens in our school and they want you now scram”, Zac shouted.
“Well done Zac”, Kaylie said, “You saved my life, my hero”. Conner sniggered.

“Bert are you OK?” Harry asked as Bert appeared from behind a school building.
“I think so, I just found myself on the floor”, Bert replied.
“Yeah sure, I believe you… not!” Kaylie shouted.
“What’s wrong Kaylie?” Harry asked.
“Bert’s a slitheen”, Kaylie said.
“I think you’re right, maybe”, Zac said looking at Bert.
“Bert’s not a slitheen”, Conner said.
“Is to”, Kaylie said.
“Is not”, Conner said, as Racsonfess slitheen appeared behind Bert.
“1. He’s fat”, Kaylie began, “2. Last night he planned to trap us”. A slitheen claw came into Kaylie and Conner’s line of vision and whacked Bert on the head.
“So I guess he wasn’t a slitheen”, Kaylie said.
“Never mind that run!” Zac shouted. So Zac, Kaylie, Conner and Harry ran for their lives being chased by a slitheen.


Meanwhile Georgia’s parents looked outside their window to see several students rubbing their heads and getting up.
“I don’t think they’re hypnotised anymore”, Colin suggested.
“Neither do I”, Elizabeth replied, “Shall we ask them in for tea?”


At the television studios nearby Georgia was crying hard.
“There, there Georgia”, Brian was saying, “You’ve got to be strong”.
“I can’t, he’s dead!” Georgia sobbed.
“He’d want us to finish the job”, Brian told her, “Then return to him”.
“M-maybe”, Georgia stammered tears pouring down her face. With some help from Brian she got up and she breathed in and out. They walked out of the studios without a second glance. Just then the doctor appeared.

“Doctor, it’s… it’s… it’s”, Georgia said breathing heavily, “Richard he’s dead”.
“Oh I’m sorry Georgia”, the doctor said, “Now we need to destroy the slitheen, but where”.
“Brian, how did you destroy that slitheen in the studio?” Georgia asked Brian.
“With fish and chips”, Brian said, “They had lots of vinegar on them. Very soggy”.
“Doctor, I think I know the place where we can destroy the slitheen”, Georgia said, “N-now Richard’s dead we can use the vinegar from h-his shop”.
“Of course your brother owns a fish and chip shop”, the doctor exclaimed.
“Owned a fish and chip shop”, Brian said and Georgia burst into tears, “Oh I’m sorry Georgia”.

Meanwhile the doctor had got his phone out and was dialling Conner’s number.
“Conner”, the doctor said down the phone.
“Yes doctor”, Conner replied.
“Get to the fish and chip shop down the road from the school”, the doctor answered.
“OK I know which one you mean”, Conner replied, pushing the end button.
“Right then”, the doctor began, “Let’s go down the chippy”.

10 minutes later the doctor, Georgia and Brian arrived at the chip shop. So did Harry, Kaylie, Conner and Zac. It was quite a large shop although all the ingredients and machines were in the one room.

“The slitheen are chasing us”, Kaylie said looking annoyed.
“Just cause Z broke the hypnosis machine”, Harry said.
“Well done Zac”, Georgia applauded.
“Georgia are you OK?” Conner asked.
“No, it’s Richard”, Georgia said beginning to cry again, “He’s dead”. Brian comforted Georgia and Conner looked slightly jealous. The doctor walked around the shop.

“Big D, over here”, Harry shouted, “I think it’s a large vat of vinegar”.
“I’ve been here before”, Zac explained, “I think they make the vinegar nearby and sell it here. They keep the vinegar in that huge barrel”.
“Doctor they’re here”, Conner shouted. The group turned scared.

“Get behind the counter”, the doctor shouted. Zac and Kaylie jumped over the counter, Georgia froze on the spot while Conner and Harry got down.
“Georgia come on”, Brian said taking her by the hand as the slitheen entered the shop. The doctor took the sonic screwdriver from Zac and started to sonic the barrel.

“Stop or we hypnotise you all”, Trafon slitheen shouted as he entered.
“I think you should think carefully because I’ll pour the vinegar all over the floor causing you to explode”, the doctor explained pointing to his screwdriver. Suddenly the doctor dropped the sonic and stood up.
“What are you doing to him?” Georgia shouted bravely.
“He’s going to fly his time machine into a black hole with you in it”, Trafon shouted as Georgia followed the doctor out the door. Then Conner stood up angry, but his face went blank and he walked out the door. Harry grabbed the sonic screwdriver and attempted to explode the vinegar barrel too. Harry then stood up and walked out the door. Then Zac noticed a tap on the edge of the barrel. Brian who wasn’t well hidden stood up and followed Harry.

“Now then you two we know that you’re hiding behind the counter”, Trafon said as Kaylie stood up bravely.
“Why are you doing this?” Kaylie asked.
“If we can’t have victory, neither can you!” Trafon Slitheen shouted. Zac turned the tap on full and a blast of vinegar shot out all over the floor. Kaylie ducked behind the counter as there was a flash of blue light and an explosion. Zac looked around to see green gunge covering the shop’s floor.


1 week later and the crew were standing around in a graveyard. The TARDIS was parked nearby one of the tombstones. A coffin was placed in a fresh grave.
Elizabeth and Colin both wearing black were sobbing at the front while Georgia, wearing a long black veil and a short dress was standing nearby. The doctor and Conner were watching sadly at the TARDIS door. Zac, Kaylie and Harry were watching behind Georgia all wore black. Many of Richard’s friends and relatives were watching as an old priest said a prayer. Brian was holding Georgia’s hand as she cried.
At the end of the mass everyone walked towards the church.

“I love you Georgia”, Brian was saying, “But I can’t come with you”.
“I know”, Georgia said, “But I can’t leave the doctor. It’s a much better life”.
“Well I think you should offer a ticket to someone else”, Brian said looking in Zac’s direction.

Zac, Harry and Kaylie were talking.
“So Mr. Roberts was a slitheen all along”, Kaylie asked.
“Even when Mr. Roberts told us they were aliens”, Harry explained.
“That’s right”, Zac said, “He gained our trust. We should be less trustworthy in future”.
“And sometimes more”, Kaylie said beginning to cry, “Lets face it, it’s my fault Bert’s dead!”
“Positive Kaylie, positive”, Zac said.

“Well I’d better be off”, Harry said.
“Me too”, Kaylie said, “See you Zac”.
“Bye you two”, Georgia said as the doctor and Georgia approached Zac with good news, as the funeral ends and Brian walks away down a stony path followed by Harry and then by Kaylie…


THE END!
