Chapter 1
There was usually mist around the docks at certain times of the year. Natural weather occurrences people might say, but this night was different. For a start it was the middle of a blazing hot summer. Temperatures were reaching the high thirties and there was not a cloud in the sky during the day. However this night was different. It was like the world knew that something needed to be hid that night.
The man stood by the gate and waited. Dressed in trousers, leather jacket and a jumper top, he was watchful for his appointment to show.
"ahem",
"I thought for a minute you weren't going to arrive."
" Now you should know more than anything that I always keep my appointments, you on the other hand are mostly late if I can remember things rightly."
" you know how unreliable transport is these days."
"Don't I just."
The leather jacket man stood for a minute and looked out over the water
" have you got what I asked you to get me?"
"My, ahem, contacts have managed to procure the vial."
The leather jacket man held out his hand and a vial of clear liquid was put in his hand by a black leather gloved hand.
" We are done. My debt to you is repaid. Now I take my leave of you and I do believe that that if and when we meet again, it will be with the status quo restored"
"then I hope we never meet again. As you know far well, any scheme you have concocted in that head of yours, will surely end up in either yours or my destruction."
"Indeed. But I assure you that my need to utterly defeat you is long gone."
"We shall see"
"Farewell Doctor, as I said I hope to never come across you again"
"The feeling is mutual Master"
The two men turned and went on their respective ways. One to a cargo container , the other to a Blue Police Telephone Box. Identical sounds were heard as both disappeared into the mist.
