Primeval drabble: Only Option

Title: Only Option
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester, Helen Cutter
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For P100 prompt 701: A Very Unfortunate Place for an Anomaly to Appear. Back to my Ice Age drabble series, #32 (I believe) and follows on from Out Of The Fire.


“Oh for fuck sake, are we lost?”

I didn’t get us lost.”

“Ah, I see, I save us from certain death and its my fault.”

“Yes.”

“Do you have a plan B?”

“I told you, there should be an anomaly down there.”

“Maybe we should take the next one.”

“James?”

“Unless you’re willing to trust to fate, I’m not leaping off a cliff and hoping I’d make it through that one,” Lester replied, staring at the anomaly spinning in mid-air. “Or trusting there’s land on the other side.”

“It might be our only option.”

“Oh? In that case, ladies first.”

I wanted that and had to do a bit of a rewrite to get it in.

You have been busy with the series. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Lester murmurs he is always (almost always) right.

Thanks for reading.
