Chapter 13
Captain John Spencer was pacing up and down the floor of his office at such a great speed,
his lieutenant Jack Davis wondered why his ankles hadn't caught alight yet.
"How on earth did this happen? Heads are going to swing for this and I just know that mines going to be first. I just know the General is going to demote me for this, I just know it!" Captain Spencer's face had turned a strange shade of crimson; sweat beads began to find escape routes down the side of his round face.
"Sir, with all due respect, if we find this thing we will all be in the clear." Luietenant Davis tried to pacify his commanding officer but he didn't seem to be listening.
"We have managed to pass sightings off of this thing as another beast of bodmin or something but we won't be able to pass it off if someone happens to have a camera." Sweat was pouring down his face now. Luietenant Davis handed him a tissue.
"We managed to tag it before it escaped but the damn thing has no signal. He most likely pulled it off by now."
"It's been six months Davis. Six months." Captain Spencer was still furiously pacing the carpet. "Do you have any idea how large that thing will be by now? How strong it will be? How much it can
eat?"
"No sir but the report I got last night will give us a clue. Project thirteen was seen running away from a farm in Aylesford by our twilight team. When the property was searched they found a couple, man and wife. They had been decapitated, also four horses a number of cows and two dogs were also decapitated."
"Where was its last confirmed location?" Captain Spencer stopped for a moment, wiped his brow then
continued to pace the floor.
"Well sir," Luietenant Davis searched the paper file on his lap and found the sheet with the co-ordinates on. "First it was Westenhanger then it was Maidstone and then last night, Aylesford. It
seems to be heading north towards London."
"Have we got Maidstone barracks on the case?"
"Yes sir but they don't know what they're looking for, this being classified."
"If that thing gets to London I cant even begin to think of how much damage it could do." Captain Spencer's face had turned a bright beetroot colour and little spitballs had collected in the corners of his mouth. He wiped his sweaty palms on his dark green uniform and picked up the telephone. "Yes Martha. Can you get me Professor Wes Browne's phone number please. Thankyou."
