Saga of Thomas Cane

A week after the terror attack, Tom and the others had decided upon their various course of actions, with Tom disengaging any and all protector protocols, essentially disbanding the entire team in one move. However, those who remained knowledgeable about the team weren’t all too keen to following the same plan, and some just didn’t want to remember anymore. Erin was one of these people, having come to Tom immediately after the attack to ask him to wipe her memories, although he sent her away initially, telling her to calm down and think about it.

Author’s Note: Just so that people aren’t too confused, the following chapter is written in first person from the perspective of Lizzy. It’s been a year since Tom cleared the campsite of terrorists and recruited me onto his team to track down all of the resurrected protectors in order to work out how they had come back from the dead. We’d made a little progress in that department, but not nearly as much as we’d have liked. However, our investigation was thrust onto the back burner when Jack came to us saying that he’d found a data cache in the year 3067 which gave him Jackie’s movements in the past, including her currently location.

In the aftermath of the terror attack, the protectors decided that it was time to leave their past behind them and move on with their lives, especially since the threat of an alien invasion had been eliminated, for at least ten years. Well, all but a few select protectors who started up various investigations into thoughts that continued to nag at them. Connor receded from his family into the shadows as he attempted to work out who orchestrated the attack, focusing on the one fact that Carl had left him with, a girl with white hair and the ability to control people. Thus his investigation turned to Emma, the person responsible for Matt’s death a year before. Tom and Connie likewise found the sudden control of thousands of people to be too hard to ignore, although their investigation hinged on Jackie potentially still being alive as well as having something to do with Claire’s and Gemma’s resurrection. This led them to a number of protectors who they were either were told had died,...

Erin didn’t care about any stupid laws or rules that attempted to regulate her powers, she didn’t care how many people she would have to kill, all she cared about was that she had to rescue her brother. This thinking radiated out from within her, unnerving Connie, who reluctantly followed her into the house

Having spent the time that Tom was organising the civilians surveying the house, Erin and Connie had take two of the terrorists out and used Connie’s ability to absorb memories to extract Connor’s location, despite the damage it caused to the brains of the individuals.

After being rescued by Tom from the café, Gemma and Claire resorted to following his orders in order to prevent their cover from being blown. As the walked the hostages towards the NCIS checkpoint, the pair used their force field generating ability to prevent the terrorists from reaching them. As they walked through a strangely quiet area, Gemma turned to Ollie and asked, “So how come you have Tom’s powers?’             ‘A few years ago we were in an accident…it was bad, very bad,’ Ollie explained sadly. ‘I’d lost a lot of blood, and Tom was a match for me, but because the accident involved around seven other people, who all also lost a lot of blood. We all had the same blood type, and I was the last one to be brought in, something to do with another car accident on the road that the ambulance was going to take. So they just flat out took some of Tom’s blood and started to pump it into my body in order to stabilise me.’  ...

Tom's family was a weird mix of humans and protectors, with a statistically improbable amount of them being protectors despite only around seventy of them being in the past. Using his entire family being in one location, including the other protectors, Tom arranged for Naomi and Emma to be introduced to them in the hopes of drawing Jackie out.

Since Naomi remained alive, her tracker continued to work allowing Tom to pinpoint her location. The same abandoned warehouse where Angee was almost mind-raped by Jamie…

Having survived the explosion of his ship, Tom managed to convince the Vinto on the ship that he had newly arrived on that he was one of them, after subtly knocking Marcus out so that he couldn’t reveal the truth. As they were marching through the enemy ship, Tom noticed that a couple of the Vinto trailed off with Amanda’s and Marcus’ unconscious bodies, presumably taking them to a more appropriate medical facility.

High above Moscow, a Vinto ship hung unable to reconstruct their cloaking systems in order to hide themselves from prying eyes below. Unfortunately for them, Naomi had already seen them and located the means of getting on board, even if said means weren’t the easiest of things to acquire.

Tom had tasked himself with taking down the Vinto ship that hovered invisibly above London. As he tore through the ship however he began to notice that he was never attacked from behind, and only ever from the front. However, he chose to ignore this fact and focus on getting to the engine room in order to destroy the ship.

Having broke into one of the Vinto ships and successfully made it to the engine room without being spotted, Emma moved onto destroying the engine of the ship by aging various important looking sections to dust. However, what she did not expect was to encounter another like her, and she definitely did not expect them to be Vinto.

Following a lengthy fight between an advanced squad of Vinto and Angee Gibbs, Marcus was eventually able to subdue her, which subsequently allowed him to extract a couple pints of blood from the girl before her reinforcements arrived and forced him to retreat. However, he had already gained everything he required to bring the Vinto up to par with the strangely advanced Protectors. Unfortunately, this gamble also revealed the Vinto presence on Earth much earlier than they would have liked.

His father’s words hung with him as he tried to move on with his life, however he couldn’t shake the feeling that his dad has been telling the truth that Janet was still alive and in present day, and the fact that Jackie knew she was alive made it even worse.

Felix had tracked down his former apprentice and copycat to the burnt ruins of a seaside hotel that Tom had burnt in order to disrupt a meeting where humans were trying to sell a drug that stripped a Protector of their powers to a group of Vinto. The resulting blaze killed Vicky and her parents, Marcus and his bodyguards and had been presumed to have killed Professor Timothy Ritchie.

Birley Community College was a small secondary school in Sheffield, England which maintained strong links with Sheffield Hallam University, allowing them to take on a number of student teachers. One of these student teachers upheld multiple identities, one a child psychologist, another a medical professor, a third as a Uni student, as well as a host of other personas that made him the most powerful man on the planet. And the planet was about to make him very, very angry.

Having decided that she needed a way to better protect herself, Faye masqueraded as one of the doctors in order to get into Ollie’s room with a blood transfuser. Upon sitting down next to him, inserted the needles into his wrist and began to fill two blood bags, once done, she quickly set the machine up to begin pumping the blood back into her own body. As her eyes and hair began to turn an unnatural red, she felt a great power welling up inside of her. That was until an outside force attempted to take control of her mind, causing her to let out a high-pitched scream and pull the wire from her wrist, causing the flow of blood to stop. When the force began to speak within her head, she scurried backwards into the corner as she lost the feeling in her left arm. As the doctors rushed in to investigate the scream, she exclaimed: ‘Get out of my head!’ startling the doctors as they realised what the tranfuser had been used to do.          ...

After having overheard about the newly discovered body over the radio the morning after Connie had discovered it. Tom made his way into town to where the body was and used his NCIS identity, alongside the previous four victims, to gain access to the crime scene. As he explored the scene he began to feel unease in two completely distinct ways, one of which was the usual temporal sickening that Jamie left around each victim, the second was that he was being watched. But when ever he tried to locate someone watching him, he came up empty. Eventually he drifted towards the body and sees a glowing note on the victim’s body. As he bent down to pick it up, the coroner stopped him and asked what he was doing. When Tom responded that he was picking up the note left on the body.                 ‘What note?’ the coroner asked. ‘There isn’t a note there.’ Looking again Tom realised that he was the only one who...

After killing Jackie in front of her whole class, Connie realised that she could no longer stay within her old life which caused her to make the decision to runaway from home.

Still unable to feel her left arm, Angee continued to work on tracking down the Vampire Killer in the hopes of catching them before more victims turned up. Unfortunately for her, this search was leading nowhere.
