Primeval Drabble: Fast Isn't Everything

Title: Fast Isn’t Everything
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 745: Fast Food. #36 set in my Ice Age drabble series and follows Not Neanderthals. Somewhat of a side swipe of the prompt.


“Do you have a plan yet?” I asked as the Coelophysis’ watched us hungrier. “Or are you just waiting for them to get bored and piss off?”

“Patience, my dear James.”

Her smile set all my flight-or-fight instincts screaming, especially when she stepped away from me and waved her arms.

“What the fuck are you doing,” I hissed.

“Keeping their attention on us.”

“I can see that, dare I ask wh… What the fuck is that?”

“Postosuchus. It’s an ambush predator and the Coelophysis are faster than us…”

“Ah, then please do carry on.”

“Just run when I tell you.”

I think, for once, that James agrees with you.

Thanks for reading.

James hopes it is uh oh for the lizards, or maybe Helen, but not him. Althought maybe not Helen (unfortunately) as then he'd be stuck in the past, all alone.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.
