A/N I do not own anything to do with doctor who it's all property of the wonderful BBC
It is also about two women running around blowing things up.
(This is an RP that a Friend of mine and I did, I felt it needed to be shared :))
Sarah Jane Smith:
She'd been planet side, that she was certain of. The last thing she remembered was reaching for a transducer shield tube, then a hand had been on her face, a bitter smell down her throat and she had woken up here.
A Ghost ship. Emergency lighting. A hint of a chill. The floor grate pressed into her face. She pushed herself up with a moan, looking around. Two hours later, she knew she was on an abandoned ship, mid sized, called the Leviticus. It was adrift in space with her on it. It was most unfortunately populated with some sort of energy creature she did not recognize. Underneath it's sickly green, snapping glow was something tall and reminiscent of wild boar. A Minotaur, it seemed, nearly, and her stuck in it's maze. Sarah Jane also suspected there was more than one. They could be outrun, but were persistent, and by their bellowing, very annoyed with her.
The ship was also populated by the burnt husks of it's former crew. She did not want to be touched by one of the beasts.
There in the ruddy emergency lighting, she had managed to patch the com back together, and rout it to emergency power. As she opened the line, the room went pitch dark with the drain on the system.
"Doctor." She was surprised when her voice broke. "Doctor, it's Sarah Jane. I'm in trouble. Does anyone hear me out there? This is Sarah Jane Smith from Earth sending out an SOS. . . please."
Was that the slightest green glow coming from under the door?
Ace:
Ace walked to her single bedroom flat she had been renting for a couple of weeks now, flipping through some papers as she went; the local newspaper and some bills nothing special. Pulling her keys out of her pocket with one hand she tried to flip the key to the flat around so she could unlock the door single handedly, dropping the key ring and all "...shoot." she put the papers between her teeth and bit down on them, holding them in her mouth as she bent down to get the keys. Having to kick the door a couple of times before it opened she started to notice a beeping noise coming from somewhere in her room "huh?" she dumped what she was carrying onto a table near the door and started to kick some things around the floor to find where the beeping was coming from.
What she found was her floor with the beeping coming from underneath it "No friggin way." she knew what it was a small distress signal motor she had made to monitor for key phases, Doctor, Daleks, Cybermen, stuff like that and also every companion name she could find in the TARDIS database or could ever remember hearing about. Typing in a quick message, piggy backing on the same signal the SOS had come in, as she pulled out her backpack with the Nitro-9, zappy bat, some alien blasters that she had "found" and a rocket launcher and shoved them in the bag "Gotta love transdimensional stuff.", she hit send, "If he won't I will, help is on the way." grabbing her jacket she headed out the door.
Once she felt she was safely out of eye shot of anyone she pulled a time hopper out of her jacket pocket and secured it to her wrist hit a button and disappeared, two hours later popped up at a planet. "ugh...nope" she hit it again.
Sarah Jane Smith:
There was only time for one message. The crackling had come again, the light, the sound of the thing breathing as she had stood there frozen in the dark for a moment. One message wasn't enough. But she could not stay. She opened the circuit, shutting off the system and bringing up the sepia and red lights.
Speed was on her side. She sprang to her feet and darted out the other door into a second small room. Sarah Jane darted up the ladder she had come down, steep and narrow runged. Utilitarian.
She'd learned much about this ship as she'd run around it, and was building a map in her head. This she cross referenced with the locations of the other two creatures she was guessing at. Up. Up and stern she would go. Once on the upper floor, she went along in smooth, quite lopes, as fast as she could manage without making too much sound.
A plan formed in her mind, one to lure the creature far away from her broadcast station, then try running past on a different level. Making good time she might be able to get out another message. She did not know what else to do. She continued to play this Minotaur and mouse game. She was very good at it. However, she was challenged enough it was hard to come up with a plan b. Two hours later, she was half way to her goal.
Right now, she had to drop right through the mid deck on her way to the lowest level. Two were on this level, and closing. One was on the second level, and too near the drop hole of the ladder. But she must.
Sarah Jane swore, sat, legs through the hole, grabbed the rail, and swung down. She cried out as she hit the mid deck too hard, the beast there swinging toward her. Dropping though the last, she landed a little better and ran again, now ready to dash back to her hot wired com equipment.
Ace:
Ace cursed as the hopper dropped her again not where she was meaning to go she jerked the thing off her wrist and stared at it, knowing that this probably wouldn't make one bit of difference, pointing at the thing with her other hand "Look! I know your doing this on purpose, now straighten up and fly right or so help me...I'll...I'll dismantle you." she put the hopper back on her wrist and hit the button again.
She took a deep breath as she reappeared on a ship "Gotta love the smell of a ship." she took a look at the read outs "Yep right place." she started to call out Sarah Janes name but stopped herself, she didn't know the situation so it probably would be in her best interest to figure it out first before she made her presence known vocally, she hit her boot on the floor lightly listening to the echo ability and smiled saying softly "but..." she put two of her fingers to her lips and let out three very high pitched whistles, the kind that carry a great distance. Then bolted down a corridor stopping to look down another corridor every once in a while to see if there was anyone down it.
Rounding a corner she came face to face with some form of energy creature, "...nope" without a second thought she about faced and bolted back in the direction she had come in like a flash. Taking a couple of sharp lefts and rights and coming to railing she looked down "...not to far." she could hear the thing behind her so she backed up, pulling the straps on her bag to make sure the backpack was secured to her back she looked back at the creature and it drew closer "See this now...this you can't do." she ran to the railing and grabbed it as she went over swinging herself down onto the floor under it, rolling when she landed so she would land on her feet. Laughing when she stood up, because she had hoped that would work but she wasn't sure. She made sure to put as much distance between that creature and herself, letting out short high pitch whistles ever couple of minutes.
Sarah Jane Smith:
She thought she heard a whistle. Perhaps her mind was playing tricks on her. Still, she headed for it. Could the Doctor have caught her SOS? He had often called her with a whistle. She swore he did it because she had a terrible whistle. Show off.
She would do it, darn it all, she would. She dashed down a corridor, gaining ground from her pursuer, then dodged to mid ship where it was most open. Here she stopped to close her eyes, make fists, purse her lips, and cut loose with a whistle that didn't sound more than a few centimeters beyond her lips. Then she heard that other clear whistle again, and simply called out.
"I'm here! I'm here!" She shouted. A glowing, crackling Minotaur suddenly loomed in a hatch across the way. Sarah Jane started to run, to hell with the sound of it. Another shape loomed, with it's toxic glow and sulfur breath in that doorway. She squeaked, and went right up over a stairwell railing, climbing through like monkey bars to dash for yet a third hatch that as of yet stood dark.
"I'm here!"
The pair of them were quite a conundrum, now moving to herd her first one way, then the other as she clambered around in the stairwell and it's hard metal drop off a story and a half.
Ace:
She heard someone she knew she did so she headed in the direction she had heard it come from, stopping for a second she jerked off her book bag putting it on the ground, she pulled the blasters out of the bag and slung the bag back across her back, priming the blasters she ran around a corner now just mostly following the smell of the creatures.
Passing a hatchway she heard something and backpedaled, looking down she saw the creatures and Sarah Jane "Hey!" she reached down quickly holding out her hand for Sarah so she could pull her up to where she was.
Sarah Jane:
Human voice, human face. Not the Doctor. A woman. A soldier. She looks up in open mouthed surprise, taking in her finely hewn, open face. Pale hair braided smoothly back. The hand thrust her way was short nailed and straight fingered. The arm attached looked strong enough to hold her 7 stone.
"Hi!" She said breathlessly with shock and sudden hope.
Sarah Jane let go the railing above, and for a weightless moment, stood poised on her toes on a single bar. She took that offered hand, and leaped upward, her second hand flying up to catch the woman around her bicep as she came upward.
