Christmas with the Daleks

Synopsis: Just a zany little idea I had running around my head after the Christmas episode of Doctor Who and what it would be like in Davros' lair during the holiday season. This answers the age old query, 'do villains celebrate holidays ?' I think that the answer is an unabashed 'yes'.

Scene 1-Downright Merry

(In Davros' lair, everything is decorated. There is even a tree, lit up and sparkling in the somewhat darkened room. Christmas music exudes througout the halls, and we hear the gay sound of Daleks singing.)

Daleks: (singing) 'Tis the season to ex-ter-min-ate

Ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha

The wretched Doctor we all hate

Ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha

If we kill him we'll be gleaming

Ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha

Master Davros will be beaming

Ha ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha !

Jast: That was downright merry, if I do say so myself.

Thay: I concur, Jast. No one probably though the Daleks could be festive this time of year.

Sev: Humans may celebrate it as a time of generosity and presents...

Caan: If I had an oraface, I'd be spewing my guts out of it. Ick.

Thay: We made our presents to Davros though, so how is that different from what our human advesaries do ?

Jast: He's got your number there, Sev.

Sev: Regardless. The Doctor may have won this time, but next year, we'll have another chance to make certain it'll be Davros' merriest Christmas ever.

Daleks: By exterminating the Doctor.

Thay: It is Christmas Eve, though. Do you think Davros got us anything ?

Jast: I think he knows we've all been obedient, Thay. But you're right...

The excitement has gotten my circuits all bundled.

(hearing Davros' humming 'O Christmas Tree' as he approaches)

Caan: Hide, everyone ! Davros is entering !

Scene 2-A Present for Davros

Davros: Daleks ? Where are you ? Hmm...Must've decided to recharge for the evening...

Daleks: (coming out all at once) Surprise !

(They have a gift for him)

Davros: What's all this ? When did you have time to actually wrap a present for me ?

Sev: We have our methods.

Jast: (getting eager) Open it !

Daleks: Open it ! Open it !

Davros: (opening it) How clever ! It's an effigy of the Doctor choked to death in Christmas lights ! I adore it. It's simply superb !

(brings them close for a hug)

Caan: What is the meaning of this ?

Thay: Shh...Caan, just enjoy it !

(They all sing together)

Hark the gleaming Daleks sing

Glory to Davros, our king

Death on earth, so merciless

We will conquer and repress

Obey you nations we defile

Conquer, man woman and child

Someday Daleks will control

Victory we will behold

Hark the gleaming Daleks sing

Glory to Davros our king !
