Dean watched as another group of demons marched up the street. "ok Time to get busy" he said, Dean jumped onto the house roof next door and climbed onto the telephone pole, he examined the sitiation carefully. Dean cut the telephone wire and swang down into a group of demons knocking most onto the floor. "ok lets go!" he shouted as he got ready for the swarm.

Crashes and screams echoed down from above them, and Ceri found herself shaking. Ralph was lying up against the wall, his face pale from anxiety and blood loss. Ceri was pacing nervously across the basement, dreading to know what was going on up above...

Phil stopped to take a quick breather. Before he was about to run back into the fight, a demon swept him aside which sent him flying over to the house. He crashed through basement door and landing with a loud thud on the ground. Phil slowly regaining his senses groaned as he tried to move before giving up. He covered his left eye and looked over at Ceri. "Eyepatch....quick" He groaned before passing out. Ceri quickly searched Phil's pockets and found the patch then quickly put it on to Phil's left eye.

"Uuuurgh...thanks..." Ceri dragged Phil to his feet again. "What's going on up there?" "Coupla demons," Phil said groggily. He caught the basement ladder to steady himself. "Nothing we can't handle..." He started back up the ladder." "Don't you need any help...?" Ceri asked timidly. "No," Phil said quickly. "You stay look after Ralph. We'll be okay."

He climbed out of the basement. Ceri found her mobile and dialled ML's number. "This is ML, in a house surrounded by demons and holding a gun which I can't use, how can I help you?" she answered "Ok, I know" Ceri said "Not the best time to call you, but what on earth is going on? How many are there?" "Hundreds I'd say" ML replied "I thought only about 50 had entered Fleet a few months ago..." "Ceri, that's what I thought. I have no idea how they had turned into such a huge army, I mean, demons don't just multiply every 20 seconds like bacteria..." "Multiply..." Ceri muttered "I got it! They're clones!" "Clones?" "Yeah! That must be how they do it!" Ceri said excitedly. Ralph nudged her. "If they're clones then all you have to do is kill the original demons, then all of their clones will disappear" he said "Ralph said..." Ceri began "I heard. But how do we know the original demons are in the army outside?" ML asked. Ceri passed the phone to Ralph. "They must be. The original demons must be near their clones at all times. DOn't ask me why, they just work that way" Ralph explained. "They must be nearer the back of the army then...to keep themselves protected...Thanks guys" They hung up. She turned to the window and looked down. "Chris!!" she shouted, but he didn't hear her. Reluctantly, she jumped over the bed and ran downstairs.

Dean tryed to slash a demon in a wide arch, but missed, *beep, Beep* "this is not a time to get called" he mutterd as he dodged a demon jumping to attack. "hello!" Dean said, "clones!" Dean heard coming from the small box "ok hold on a sec" Dean replied, Dean dived onto the floor rolling out of the way, "ok so what u want me to do?"

"Just kill the original ones" Ceri explained "They're likely to be nearer the back of the army" "Look for ones which seem to be giving out orders and not attacking" Ralph said. "Right" Dean replied, wondering how he was going to do that. He hung up and looked around: they were almost surrounded. "Chris!" he called. "Kill any demons which come behind me" Without waiting for a reply he held up his sword and began cutting his way through the demons. Just then, ML appeared at the front door. "What the hell is he doing?" Chris shouted "They're clones!" ML replied "We know a way to beat them"

"How do we know which ones aren't the clones though?" Chris said as he reloaded his crossbow. "Um..Just kill the ones that look like they are taking orders from!" she replied Chris's phone went off, "Nows really not the best time!" he said he ducked down as a branch flew overhead "I know, Do you have any spare guns in your house?" Phil asked "Attic!" He shouted in relpy and hung up.
Phil ran into the house and entered the attic and gasped at the large collection Chris had somehow gained.

"What the...?" He shook his head, wondering if Chris' parents knew about the guns. Shaking it off, he began to dig around the pile until he found what seemed to be a relatively simple-to-use gun. He shoved it into his belt and grabbed two more before running back downstairs, snatching a box of ammo as he did. He darted across the hall and to the trapdoor. "Catch, Ceri!" Ceri reacted too late and the two guns and ammo hit the ground with a crash. "What are these for?" called Ceri. "Whatdaya think?" Phil shouted back. "We're not going out there!" Ceri cried. "Defence, blonde!" Phil shouted. "Stay there with Ralph. We'll clear the way so we can all get away--this place isn't gonna hold up. Only use the guns if--" his voice was suddenly cut off. "Phil? Phil!" Ceri shouted. "What's happening?" Ralph asked, pale with fright. Ceri couldn't answer. "Phil?!" There was a cry from above, a snarling groan, then Phil kicked the trapdoor shut. "PHIL!"

Several gunshots were heard before a scream of pain and then silence. A dull thud of the demons feet as it walked away not realising why Phil had been there.
ML ran round the corner of the house after hearing the screams to find Phil proping himself up against the wall while sitting down with his sub machinegun across his lap. His head swayed around. "Maija-Li...?"He asked, his vision was getting blurry. He had his free hand pressing down on one of his wounds, he stared at the gash before having to blink away as blood dripped down from his head and into his eye. "Phil!" She shouted. She ran over to him bringing him slightly too his senses "Bastard....caught me off gaurd!" He groaned looking back down at his wounds. ML banged on the basement door, "Ceri! It's me!" She shouted. Then pulled the door open and tossed Phil's gun inside and called down at Ceri "Get up here and help me pull Phil down here, he's hurt pretty bad!"

Ceri leapt up the stairs and grabbed Phil's other arm, her hands already heavily stained with blood. She and ML dragged Phil down the stairs and brought him up against the wall beside Ralph. Deciding it pointless to search for bandages, Ceri simply removed Phil's shirt and began tearing it into strips. The white t-shirt beneath was pretty much entirely crimson by this time. Phil stirred. "That cost me..." he began blearily. "Shut up," Ceri said simply, beginning to bind his wounds. She turned to ML. "Where are the others?" "I don't know," ML said anxiously. "I'll...check..."

ML climbed out of the basement and closed the trapdoor. Ceri turned back to the two casualties and began wiping away the blood near Phil's eye with her sleeve. Ralph smiled. "Ceri," he said "You could be a doctor, or a nurse" "Really?" she replied "Yeah, you'd make a good doctor too" Phil said "Thanks guys. It wasn't what I had in mind, but it doesn't sound too bad. "

Dean was slashing away through his opponents hoping to hit an origanal demon he was heading deeper and deeper in the army of demons he knew he had staryed to far from the group and he would need to turn back. Just as Dean was about to do this a bright light apeared infront of him "huh?" Dean mutterd it stayed a minute and disapeared, Dean slashed his way back but he eventuly caught glimpse of something even more interesting, and something far more scary then cactus jack himself.

Dean looked up to see a 7ft tall creature towering over him with bright yellow eyes. Their eyes met, Dean's full of shock and fear, the creature's full of joy at the sight of food. Its mouth opened to reveal several sharp canine teeth, and a huge drop on saliva fell from his long slithering tongue and onto Dean's head. Dean took one glance at the rest of the creature, and ran for his life. It followed him, raised its large fists and brought them down. Dean dodged and heard the pavement crack as the fists landed on the spot where he had been 2 seconds ago. "Dean's coming back!" M-L pointed. "Fuck!" Chris shouted "What has he brought with him?!"

Dean skidded to a halt at Chris' side. "Chris, Dean!" he shouted. "What are you doing, leading it back here?" "C'mon," Dean cried, ignoring him. "We have tl distract it. ML!" "What?" "Warn Cez and Ralph! We have to get out of here! This place isn't gonna hold!" With that Dean and Chris launched out onto the road, ducking around the huge creature. It turned with them, watching them dart up the Linkway, and followed them, growling. ML ran down the stairs at full speed and into the kitchen. She kicked the trapdoor in. "Ceri!" she shouted down. "Ralph, Phil! We have to get out of here!" Ceri started to hear her voice. "What's wrong?" "There's no time," ML called back. "Just get out of there, fast!" Ceri leapt to her feet and helped Ralph up. "C'mon, Phil..." Together they pulled him to his feet. Ceri led the way to the steps and they climbed up to the kitchen with ML. "What's going on?" Ceri asked, raising her voice over the noise. "What's THAT?" Ralph cried, spotting the monster outside. "No idea," ML shouted back. "Come on!" The four of them ran into the lounge and started outside into the back garden

They crashed through the glass doors and found themselves facing several demons. ML attacked them with fireballs. They managed to push their way through the gates and started running as fast as they can. Ceri turned to look behind them. "Hey! Why aren't there any demons after us?" They slowed down and realised they were alone on the street. "That's because they've all gone after Chris and Dean" ML replied. "Two of them against that huge thing and several demons?!" Ralph said "ML you should go and help them" "I don't know where they are" she said quickly "This is hopeless" Ceri said "we'll never find Cactus Jack if we keep getting attacked by his little followers" "But they just won't leave us alone" Phil replied "Maybe we should stop looking for Cactus Jack," ML said "But start looking for his target - the gateway to hell. Think about it, cactus Jack and move around and we'll always be one step behind him, but if we work fast and find out where that gateway is, which can't move around, we might be able to beat him to it and stop him when he arrives." "Great plan" Phil said "but how do we find out where the gateway is?" "The legend says that the gateway is a hole on the ground, which is blocked by an object, for example a large rock, but once it's open, it will suck in those standing around it and release evil into the world." Ceri explained. "And the best place to find out more information about it is..." "the library" Ralph said.

Phil groaned. "That's miles away!" "But its our best bet," Ceri said. "Come on, let's go." Ceri and ML helped Phil and Ralph as they ran up the hill onto the main road, then started down towards the high street. It was nearly nightfall by now and it was getting dark; by the time they'd reached the canal the only light came from one or two flickering lampposts. "How are we going to get into the library?" Ralph asked, shivering. "Break the window," Phil suggested. "Do you think it'll be locked?" "Everything's locked these days," Ceri mumbled. Eventually they dragged their feet up to the Harlington Centre, and to their surprise found the revolving door unlocked. Inside the foyer seemed normal enough, everything set up for the day, posters plastering the walls, displays advertising classes and shows and all sorts that usually went on. But the dates of the events were almost years behind, because nothing in the Harlington Centre had been touched for that long. "Come on," Ceri said, "through here..." and she led the way into the library.

Ralph, come and help me, and Phil, try the history section, see if anything like this has ever happened before." The four of them split and headed for their designated areas.

"So let me get this straight you want me to charge at the demons with my sword while you get away" Dean said "Yeah basically" Chris replied as he reloaded his crossbow "Coward" "No I'm not, its advancing in a different direction!" "Still a coward..." "You going to do this or do I have to throw you at them?" "Can't we just both run together when they aren't looking?" "..Yes" Dean looked over the bush they were hiding behind and ducked back down. "Well now would be a good time!" He replied as he sprinted away. The demons sprung out of no where and attacked Dean as Chris made his escape as he had planned.

Back in the library, the four of them weren't making much progress. "I've found lots of books on the gateway to hell" Ceri said, scanning through the books "But they're all authors' interpretations. Each book tells the story differently and I doubt any of these are true." "well, this is the fiction section" ralph replied. In the children's section, ML flicked through hardback books, each page containing a large picture and two lines of text. Hopeless, she thought. She returned to the fiction section. "No good in the children's section" she said to Ceri and Ralph. Just then, they heard Phil call them. "Guys," Phil said, holding a thick book in his hands. "This might be it" They placed the book on a table and crowded around it. "The legend of the gateway to hell," Ceri read "is thought to be an opening on the ground. The exact location is unknown though many people had travelled the world to find the place. Nowadays, it is nothing more than a story as it is believed it never existed." Her eyes scanned through the paragraphs and stopped at a name. "Michael Hodgers - traveller and greatly into myths, who was thought to have found the location of the gateway. He died several years ago, leaving behind only a diary. Entries from the diary have not directly said where the location is, but mysterious codes were found. No-one has worked out what Hodgers was trying to say, and most just think he was trying to puzzle people and made up the whole thing himself" Ceri looked up. "Well, we know it has to be true since Cactus Jack is trying to find it." Ralph said. "But Hodgers might be lying in his diary" Phil said. "It's worth a shot anyway" ML said. Ceri continued to read. "Codes found in Hodgers diary:" She turned the page over and a wave of disappointment swept over them as they stared at the diary entry printed on the glossy paper. It was a bold, black, 5 point star, and under neath it simply said 'The five stones guard what evil has brought' Several seconds later, Phil sighed "Well this helps a lot" he said sarcastically

Ceri sat down on the table looking thoughtful. "Five stones...five stones must mark where the opening is." "Or what the opening has brought," Phil said. "That's what it says." "But the original 'evil' was Lucifer," Ralph said, sitting beside Ceri. "He opened the gate in the first place, so the gate is the evil that Lucifer brought, and it's marked by five stones." "So..." ML said presently, "...anyone know of any five stones we can start with?"

"Hmm well there are five points on a pentathingy" Ralph replied "Pentagram?" Ceri asked "Thats the one so if there are five stones that you can link and with one of the points point south then that could be the gate..." he continued "Why south?" ML asked "On the Satanic pentagram it points downwards which is the evil one rather than the good which points up" Phil added "Well does anyone know anywhere?" Ceri asked. They all thought to themselves if they had ever seen a place with 5 pillar like stones. Their thoughts were interrupted when they heard foot steps of someone wearing boots. They dived for cover looking out through gaps in the shelves only to realise that it was Chris. "What took you so long? Wait, wheres Dean?" Ceri asked "Got caught up with some demons, no idea what happened to him" he sighed as he sat down. "Well maybe you can help us" ML said "Do you know anywhere that has five pillar like stones standing in a pentagram shape might be?" Chris thought to himself for a moment "Ah! I know!" "Where?" They asked "First, we're going to need a car and a boat" "A boat what for?" Ralph asked "We're going to the Isle of Wight!" Chris smiled "So why are they running around here?" Phil said "There is a pentagram somewhere in Fleet but it points the wrong way, everyone knows evil ones point south" He smirked "One day your going to have to tell us how you know this stuff..." Ceri sighed
