A/N: For the P100 challenge 366: Insomnia and my Primeval Bingo Card (round 2) prompt: Worst Case Scenario. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series. Thanks go to Fred for looking at it for me.


Matt stared down the barrel of April's gun and hoped Danny would keep Becker to their plan. They couldn't fail now, not when they were so bloody close. “You don't want to do this, April.”

“I don't? I won't let you destroy Philip's greatest moment.”

“It won't be like that.” Matt informed her. “This discovery will do only one thing. It will result in the death of the Earth and all of humanity with it.”

“Jealous lies spread by Temple.” April spat out.

“No, I spent my childhood too scared they'd find me to sleep properly, waking at every sound.”

Terrors, indeed. Poor Matt could probably count on one hand the number of hours of sleep he got at night while growing up. April's an idiot and I look forward to her comeuppance. Another excellent chapter.

*nods* He probably could. April might be - she loves Philip and won't hear a word against him. Poor April ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Poor Matt!
What a life for a child.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry.
Definitely, I imagine children grew up fast.

Thanks for reading.

Not a nice way to grow up. No wonder he's so determined now.

*nods* Poor Matt wouldn't want anyone living like that.

Thanks for looking at it for me and for reading.

Keep telling her, Matt! Bless him.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Matt will, hoping he'll get through to her - or that he gives his team the time to stop New Dawn.

Thanks for reading.

Nice take on the prompt.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I did wonder how I'd fit it in and then remembered that the team were there.

Thanks for reading.

Matt knows what he's taking about...

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

He does, poor boy.

Thanks for reading.

Good to know you think so and thanks for reading.

Poor Matt.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* He had a terrible childhood.

Thanks for reading,

Ugh April. Hopefully she listens to Matt; he knows the truth all too well.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

April is far too loyal to Burton, but who knows what might happen? *eyes next prompt*

Thanks for reading.

Yes, Matt, tell it like it is! (And hopefully like it will not turn out to be...)

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Matt is trying to get through to her... and he hopes it doesn't turn out like he remembers.

Thanks for reading.

Very appropiate title indeed, poor Matt! I hope somebody knocks April out too.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked the title. Hee, maybe. It might depend on the prompts ;)

Thanks for reading.

Poor Matt. I'm sure the others will fulfill their part of the plan.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Matt didn't have a good time growing up.

Matt's sure they will.

Thanks for reading.
