They could also manipulate the minds of millions of children at will. When they came to Earth in [[2009]], they forced all children globally on Earth to chant "We are coming". The transmissions became more and more sophisticated with each sending, until the 456 manipulated each country's children into relaying a different message to their governments. Children around the globe communicated in English only, due to the 456's previous dealings with the British government. This connection they could also give off a fatal signal, which they used to kill [[Clement McDonald]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Children of Earth: Day One]]'', ''[[Children of Earth: Day Four]]'') However, if reversed, the frequency was deadly to the 456, making their bodies exhibit extreme pain before violently exploding.

Despite their high technology level, the 456 appeared to prefer intimidation and threats to all-out war. Though the [[456 ambassador]] released a deadly virus into [[Thames House]] to demonstrate what a war with them would be like, ([[TV]]: ''[[Children of Earth: Day Four (TV story)|Children of Earth: Day Four]]'') the 456 failed to respond to an attack that apparently killed the ambassador and forced their retreat from Earth. ([[TV]]: ''[[Children of Earth: Day Five (TV story)|Children of Earth: Day Five]]'') This was similar to how when [[the Monks]] invasion of Earth years later was defeated, they chose to retreat rather than retaliate against the [[human]] race.
