Primeval drabble: Shifting Sands

Title: Shifting Sands
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 369: Slow And Steady. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series. Thanks goes to Fred for casting her eye over it and for the title.


James paused to look over the landscape of the ruined future, coughing as the toxic air burned his lung with every breath. He glanced at his watch, cursing when he realised it was time to return to the anomaly. He could only hope one of the others had found Connor.

He paused for a final check and gasped when he spotted a dark shape lying motionless. He tried to run before cursing as the traitorous sand shifted beneath his feet. The thought of having to take his time was maddening but injuring himself wouldn't help Connor.

If that was Connor.

It had better be Connor!
*eyes you beadily*

Love this series.

Would I be that mean? *looks shifty* ;)

I believe that all depends on the next prompt *points at prompters*

*blushes* Thanks.

Lester always so sensible. But is it really Connor? Not so sure about that.

Not at all certain that it's Connor but still, be very careful, James. **glances as her closet where she keeps her pitchfork** ....just sayin'... *g*

Get him!

You DO love making things difficult for them! At least he's found somebody...

*nods* Lester is and he really hopes that is Connor. *shrugs* That depends on the next prompt ;)

Thanks for reading.

James will be, he's not about to relax until he knows for sure that it is Connor. *eep* It's the prompts *nods*

Thanks for reading.

Lester will.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-01 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
But... it is the prompt, I tell you ;)

*nods* Lester has, now all he has to hope is that it is Connor.

Thanks for reading.

It IS Connor. It must be!

James certainly hopes it is Connor.

Thanks for reading.

Oh gosh! I don't know whether to hope it's him or not! He might be hurt!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-01 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
James hopes it is Connor. Er... is that a request for a hurt Connor? ;)

Thanks for reading.

Yikes! Hopefully James can get out of the quicksand and reach Connor in time.

Let's hope it's Connor!

Lester's eyeing the sand now and hopes it isn't quicksand. He does hope he reaches Connor.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-02 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
James and Connor certainly hope so, though it all depends on miss maim and kill's prompt ;)

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-02 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
James certainly hopes it is as does Connor.

Thanks for reading and for looking it over for me.

[identity profile] stealingpennies.livejournal.com 2014-06-04 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)

Oh James. Yes, now is definitely not the time to lose control. Whoever it is needs you in good shape. Nice prompt incorporation. :)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-04 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
James won't, he wants his Connor back.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Meep!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-14 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, but I'm sure James will be fine.

Thanks for reading.

Eeek! Poor Connor.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-06-22 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Eek might be correct. I'm being mean to Connor at the moment.

Thanks for reading.
