"Right. Let me get this straight. You are from a place called Pepperland, you are under attack from blue meanies (whatever they are) and you need the flipping Beatles to help you?"

"Yeah, that sounds about right." Replied Roger. "But the main difference is you aren't meant to be here. The Beatles are; and..."

"Woah. Hold it." Interrupted Blue. "I don't know if this is some stupid prank because it isn't funny, but seriously?"

"What?"

"The Beatles are meant to be in my house?"

"Well yeah... the Sub said so."

"Ha. Funny. You do know the Beatles don't exist any more?" Blue bit her lip anxiously.

Emily's jaw dropped open, Finn gasped and Roger gave her a hard stare. "What do you mean?" He asked harshly.

Blue just looked at the floor. "Look... erm... if your crazy story is true then... this must be a big shock... but... I know my facts. Even I find it sad and I wasn't even alive when any of... of it happened..."

"What year is it?" Demanded Roger suddenly.

"2017." Blue looked at him carefully and had a guess at what he wanted to know. As she guessed the children looked a little anxious at her reply. "She's right you know." Murmured Finn. "The year clock in the Sub said the same thing."

"The year clock?" Exclaimed Blue. "Yeah." Replied Finn. "There's a normal clock too but it's kind of not normal... in a way."

"Right. That makes sense. Totally."

Suddenly there was a shout from upstairs - it was Sadie, Blue's foster parent. She swore loudly and screamed down the stairs, before her husband began to shout as well.

"We can hear yeh! Yeh ruddy burglars! I'm cumin down now and I'm gonna call the ruddy cops, yeh hear me?"

Blue gulped and looked at the trio.
"Ok. I'm not sure if I totally believe you and you'd better be telling the truth. But let's go see this 'submarine' of yours. And if you're lying you owe me... a lot. Ok? And I'm only coming because I hate this place and Bill and Sadie are gonna kill me if they find me hanging around downstairs in the middle of the night."

"Ok fine!" Replied Roger quickly "But let's go!" Blue led the way as they ran out the house, slammed the door and hid behind the bins outside. They were pursued rapidly by Bill, who flung open the door and shone his torch across the front yard.

"Yeh ruddy thieves! Just yeh wait till I get the cops on yeh!" He followed this with a string of aggressive swear words before slamming the door loudly.

Blue gulped. "You wait here. I need to get something from inside."
The other three looked at each other and nodded.

"Ok" replied Finn. "But you might get caught. Get something out of the Submarine first. It might help."

"Ok fine. I don't know what you mean but whatever." Blue replied before Finn led the way to the Vauxhall parked outside. Blue eyed it suspiciously.
"This is a yellow submarine huh?"

"Yes it is." Retorted Roger shortly. "Get in." He opened the door and ushered everyone inside.
