AFTER THE NIGHT SHE HAD HAD, JUNIPER BARELY GOT A WINK OF SLEEP. Her mind kept drifting back to what the mystery man had called 'living plastic' because she knew they weren't from Earth. As Sherlock Holmes famously said 'When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth' so in Juniper's case, this meant aliens. She had managed to get a hold of some of her Astronomy friends that were studying the possibility of alien life, but they were a brick wall. And their silence spoke volumes.

The blonde stared at her clock, watching as the second hand ticked by. She then decided to check up on Rose considering they had both been through the same bizarre experience. It wasn't that far to Powell Estate where the Tyler family lived so Juniper grabbed her bag and walked.

People strolled past, all in their own little worlds, and they had no idea of strange events that occurred the night before. Juniper just sighed, her eyes trained on the pavement beneath her feet as she continued on her path towards her best friend's flat. It didn't take her long until she was at the door to the Tyler residence and instead of banging on the wood and waking them up, she took the key they had given her and let herself in.

The ex-manager headed straight for the kitchen where she removed three mugs from the cupboard and switched on the kettle. "Oh, good morning to you too June." The familiar voice of Jackie Tyler said sarcastically. Juniper spun around to face her and then smiled at the woman.

"Good morning Jackie, I just wanted to check up on Rose and then decided to make you guys some tea." Juniper said softly.

Jackie smiled gratefully. "June, you're so sweet, thank you." She told the girl. "Rose said you were with her when it happened." Juniper raised her eyebrow. What exactly had Rose told her Mother? "You should sue, get some money off of it." The woman suggested and Juniper couldn't help but laugh.
