“Aren’t we going to look a bit weird?” Derek asked. “I mean, a group of scientists all catching the bus, in full protective suits, carrying portable laser guns?”

“They are not guns!” Professor Jones snapped. “They are very sophisticated laser expulsion units.”

“What are the lasers for?”

“To shoot anything scary that comes out of the wormhole. It could be an alien race; it could be the Loch Ness Monster; it could be Jeremy Clarkson – who knows what horrors may be out there!”

“So they are guns?” Marjory asked.

“They’re science guns!” Professor Jones mumbled. “It’s not the same.”

“Are they legal?” Dave asked.

“Legal-ish.” Professor Jones shrugged. “Look, I must say that this isn’t the response I was hoping for. We are the only four people in the world who are trained to deal with what happens if inter-dimensional travel is discovered. We are on the front line of science. We are warriors and, if needs be, defenders of this planet. What did you think this job was about when you signed up for it?” the Professor said, looking around at her colleagues.
