The Doctor and the Chess

It was an ordinary day for the Doctor. he had just save the world again. Well... This is what he always does. While he was moving around the TARDIS's console, Clara was looking at him.

Then, Clara said with a little coffusion in her voice: "Once, you told me that your people invented the chess. Is it true or was it just one of your clever lies?"

The Doctor stopped pressing big friendly buttons and said with a strange arrogance in his voice: "Wrong! I didn't say it to you. I said it to the Cyber Planet. Chess is more than a strategy game. It's a game of psyhological control of the enemy." Clara understood he was avoiding the answer and said: "So... Was it real? The chess have been invented by the Time Lords?"

The Doctor turned around and pressed some buttons. After a moment of silence, He turned around again and said: "Well... Yes... Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES! My people invented the chess. Well... Somehow... The Time Lords invented it in times o war to prepare the children for the war strategies. After that, they sent it in all the time and space." Clara was conffused again and asked: "Why?" The Doctor was a little annoyed by the question. "Why?!" he said. "WHY?! I'll tell you why, Clara Oswald... By mistake! An unknown Time Lord was reading the Big Holocron of the Chass Games when his TARDIS crashed on an unknown planet and threw the holocron in the Temporal Vortex in a crisis ofhysteria."

Clara was looking satisfied. "That Time Lord," she said,"he was you, wasn't he?" The Doctor turned around again pressing buttons and trying to look busy. "You should go home now. You should be tired. It was a long day," he said. "Say hello to Angie and Artie." "He was you!" Clara said. "Well..." the Doctor said a little annoyed. "Yes... Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. He was me. I threw the holocron in the Time Vortex."

Then, they heard a strange sound. The Doctor looked at the console and said: "Yes, I know! I know!" And then, he looked to Clara again. "I suppose it's time for you to go home." Clara went to the door and said: "Ok, clever boy! See you Sunday! THIS Sunday! I don't want to wait four weeks for you again." The Doctor made a bored face and replied: "Yeah... As you wish. See you next Sunday!" Clara looked satisfied and got out of the TARDIS.

The Doctor pressed some buttons. "Activate the TARDIS Voice Interface!" he said.

Then, a hologram with Clara's face appeared and said: "TARDIS Voice Interface Activated." The Doctor looked bored again. "Oh, no!" he said. "I want a break from Clara's little bossy funny nose! Give me something older. Something more robotic. Well... An old friend... Give me K9, please." The hologram changed into K9. The Doctor looked satisfied and said with all the satisfaction of the world in his voice: "Let's play chess!"
