Clara Ozwald
Doctor Who (Matt Smith)
Ben
Rook
Unidentified DNA
This story starts abord the TARDIS, as Clara and the doctor are apperating in a new undisclosed loactation.
"So, Doctor, where are we heading today?" Clara paused a second, "Or when are we heading?"
The Doctor, straitening his bowtie, looks over to Clara with a wild smile on his face, "We are hovering right over Anur Vladius, in the Anur System. Home to the vampire like speices, the Vladats!"
Clara looks at him bewildered, "No. Way. The whole planet is full of vampires? As in proper, Count Dracula, vampires?"
The doctor smiles and looks at the TARDIS display screens, "Actually if I'm right Count Dracula may not have traveled to earth yet."
Clara's mouth drops, "WAIT! You're telling me that Count Dracula is an alien?"
The Doctor's face slowly morphs to that of worry, "Yeah... um... Clara, what does that screen say?"
Clara pulls a screen down to her level and finds a string of numbers and letters, "It's a bunch of letters and numbers."
The Doctor rolls his eyes, "Well what are they?"
Clara shoots him a dirty look, "They are: M-O-1-2-D-A-2-5-Y-E-A-D-2-0-1-5"
The Doctor's eyes get wide, "Oh no..."
Before the Doctor get's a chance to react, the TARDIS's alarms being blaring and sparks and smoke starts spewing everywhere. The TARDIS is beinging to be pulled towards the planet below, both Clara and the Doctor fall to the floor. They appear to be getting stuck on the floor due to the artificial gravity in the TARDIS.
"DOCTOR! WHAT'S GOING ON?" Clara yelled, struggling to move.
The Doctor struggles to get up, "It's the planet below! It's pulling us in and messing with the TARDIS's gravitational pull."
Clara looks over to the Doctor after finally getting a grasp on something to start pull herself up, "You can fix this can't you?"
The Doctor reaches into his pocket to find his sonic screwdriver, "Well I hypathedically could reverse the damage done to the artificial gravity genereator, but the only way I can do it is to reboot the TARDIS central hospitality unit. Then all I have to do is put that drive into emergancy override, which should all-"
"Simpilar terms please!" Yells Clara, who has just fallen back on her stomach.
The Doctor continues fiddling with his screwdriver and sighs, "I'm gonna turn it off and turn it back on." He points the screwdriver at center concel and presses a button on the screwdriver about seven times until it begins to beeps at a high frequency and at a rapid pace.
With a sudden jerk, the TARDIS's gravity fixes itself.
"Well isn't that a relief." Clara sighs, getting to her feet and sitting in the chair behind her.
The Doctor looks at his screwdriver perplexed, "That shouldn't have made that sound..." He looks at a screen, which is blank. "No."
He walks around to another screen.
Blank.
"No!"
Finally he looks at another screen that reads that the outer shields of the TARDIS are being eaten away, except all scans show that their is no life on this planet.
"Oh, no." He looks back to Clara, "I'm so sorry"
Clara looks at the Doctor, worry in her eyes, "Doctor, what's going on?"
The Doctor looks at the screen again, "The planet is eating the TARDIS, and at this rate we only have about 17 minutes to find a solution."
Clara takes a deep breath and nods, "Alright, 17 minutes..." She stands up and walks over to the consol, "Still beter than 15 minutes."
The Doctors frown slowly turns to a smile, "That's my Clara." He quickly gets up and looks around, "Alright, we are trapped on a plannet that is slowly eating away at the TARDIS's shields and also seems to be trapping us on it at the same time; however, we have..." The Doctor looks around, "What do we have?"
Clara looks around, "We have this," She says pointing to the phone on the concol.
The Doctor grimices, "Clara, the TARDIS is practily shut off, there is no way for us to send a signal out."
Clara looks at the Doctor in disbelief, "Don't people from different points in time and space call you from this phone all the time?"
The Doctor rubs his face, "Yes, but normally they call when the TARDIS is on."
"But that doesn't mean it won't work, it just means that it's not guarenteed to work."
"Clara, we are on a planet that shut down the TARDIS just by us landing on its surface. I doubt that we can send a signal out from a planet capable of shutting down a ship like mi-"
RING RING
The two look at the phone
RING RING
Clara smirks at the Doctor as he saunters on over to the phone, "Told you it would work."
The Doctor mochs Clara, and proceeds to pick up the phone, "Hello, this is the Doctor."
"Hello distresed ship. This is Plumber team Alpha, here to rescue you." The person on the other end said, "Did you say that this is a medical ship?"
The Doctor looked bewildered, "Um, not exsactly, I said my name is The Doctor."
"Alright then, Mr. 'The Doctor', we will have you off that planet momentarilly."
The call was ended with a dial tone, "Clara, I don't know how, but someone is here to save us."
Clara looks at The Doctor, her eyes displaying her confusion, "Don't we need saving?"
The Doctor, scrunched his brow, "Yes, but how did they know where we were?"
"Maybe they were just here on a chance," said Clara with hope scattered amongst her voice.
"Maybe..." The Doctor trailed off.
Suddenly the TARDIS began to shake and rumble, except the power remained off.
"Doctor, what's going on?" Clara asked, her voice trembeling and growing higher pitched.
The Doctor looked at his screens again, all of them said that the TARDIS was still switched off. "I'm not sure, but whatever it is-"
The Doctor was cut off by the sound of buzzing and a bright blue light.
Ring Ring
The Doctor struggles to pick up the phone, "What are you doing to my ship!"
"We are attempting to pull your craft off the plannet with an enhanced form of a tractor beam."
The Doctor looked concerned, "Alright, but where are we going after you get us out of here? My ship's main systems are off line. We'd be dead even if you get us out of the planet's pull."
"Not to worry. We will be taking you to the nearest fully functioning plumber base to repair your spacecraft."
The Doctor's exprestion changed to concern, but he also we watching as his ship was being eaten alive, "Alright, any thing I can do down here?"
"That is unnessisary, we will handle the transport of your ship."
"Alright then, see you when we get there," the Doctor hung up his phone, "Yeah see you when we get there inddeed.
Clara watched the Doctor pased nervously, "Doctor, why are you pasing nervously? I know you find this all a bit suspisious but can't you just ignore that for a moment so we can get out of here?"
The Doctor seemed to deep in thought.
"Your ignoring me and still focusing on how conveniant it was that they're here aren't you?"
The Doctor suddenly stopped and looked to Clara, "Am I carzy or is it strange that we're being saved by some random passer by on a planet that is trying to eat my ship?"
Clara looked upwards, a finger on her chin, "I suppose it is a tad strange, but do we have many options right now?" Clara gestured towards a monitor with a meter determaning the sustanablity of the TARDIS's outer shields.
The Doctor was ready to respond, but was cut off by the ringing of a phone. The Doctor answered once more, "Hello?"
"Hello Mr. 'The Doctor', I appoligize but our advanced tractor beam is not working. We will have to resort to a differant form of help."
"What kind of help are you thinking?" The Doctor asked carefully.
"We are going to send a professonal... a very good...," the person on the other side of the line was seeming to go quiet, "We are sending a specialist to assist you."
"What does that mean?" Asked the Doctor, both confused and annoyed.
"We have someone coming down to teporarally assist you and your other piolits."
"What do you mean, 'other piolits'?" The Doctor asked insaulted.
"My data base shows that your ship requires nearly 11 people to fly efficiantly. 9 people at minimum to fly at all."
The Doctor got infuriated, "Well hold on there, I've flown this ship thousands of times by my self, the only reason I'm stuck is because of this planet."
Clara listened as the person on the phone and the Doctor argued about the correct way to fly the TARDIS, but she was more interested in something appearing on the scanner. "What is that..." The data she could understand seemed to say that the thing was humanoid and quickly heading their way... from above them. "Um Doctor, it appears something is falling towards us."
"I don't care if you're the leader of the Queens Royal Army, you are not going to tell me how to fly my ship..." The Doctor continued to argue.
Clara continued to watch until sudenly the blip dissapeard. "That's odd, how did something like that just dissapear?"
Suddenly the ship shook. Clara jutted her head around; meanwhile, the Doctor was caught up deep in his arguement.
Clara turned back towards the screen, only to be greated by an interesting black and green blob poking off the monitor. She blinked, "I should deffinatly be more nervous or freaked out by this, but for some reason I'm not."
The blob didn't seem to talk but looked around.
"Something I could help you with?" Asked Clara, mildly concerned.
The blob suddenly popped out from the monitor and onto the floor.
"Um... Doctor," Clara backed away slowly, and carefully.
"Clara I'm in the middle of arguing with this stupid person about the practicality of multiple piolits flying a TARDI-" The Doctor suddenly noticed the blob on the floor, "Um... Clara what is that?"
The blob or black and green seemed to spiral until finally taking on a humanoid form.
The Doctor turned back to the phone, "Hold on a second, is your specilist a large green and black liqiud metal based lifeform that can meld with technoligy to help enhance it teporarily or permanitly?"
"Yes, I have sent our... residant Galvantic Mechamorph to assist you. Is there a problem?"
The Doctor looked at the 'Mechamorph', who seemed to unable to talk and was seemingly confused. "He doesn't appear to be able to speak or do much for one. Second off, I did not concent to you sending another lifeform to possess my ship!"
"Doctor!" Clara yelled, "Maybe now is not the best time to yell at the people trying to save us."
"I agree with the person I can hear in the background." A voice came from the blob, "Appoligies again if this frightend you, the reason that this Galvantic Mechamorph can not speak seems to be that our connection is interfearing."
"So if I hang up, it can speak to us, and get us out of here?" The Doctor asked, with a tone of confusion.
"That is affermitiv-" The person was cut off by the Doctor hanging up in frustration.
"So you can talk now?" asked Clara.
The sound of a laser charging rang through the TARDIS, but suddenly, "Hello there!" The mechamorph spoke.
"Finally, someone I can see and speak to." The Doctor approuched the mechamorph, "If you recall, my names the Doctor, and that is Clara."
Clara waved.
"Really, your name is 'The Doctor'?" the Mechamorph chuckled a bit, "Well, Doctor and Clara, my names Ben Tenyson. Let's get you off this planet." Ben dove back into the TARDIS monitor and, as if by magic, the entire ship became covered from floor to ceiling in a color scheme similar to that of Ben's body. On the monitor appeared a symbol, that once represented his eye. "Okay, wow, this ship is huge!"
Suddenly the ship began to whir and roar, and entually started to soar off the planet.
"How are you doing this?" Asked the Doctor.
"I'm not really doing much," Ben attempted to explain, "I'm just making the ship a bit more susseptable to our tractor beam, and also trying to take off at the same time."
The Doctor's eyes twitched, "You're mad! If this works, once we leave the pull of the planet, we'll hit your ship at uncontrolable speeds!"
Ben's eye blinked, "I can't lie, we didn't think about that part."
Alass it was to late, the ship was already escaping the planet's pull and had begun picking up speed.
A beeping came from Ben's eye, "Ben, can you hear me? You are coming in to fast, slow down!"
Ben growned and creeked, "I'm trying, but this ship is much bigger on the inside!"
The Doctor, while annoyed, smiled a bit at the remark.
"I think you'll have to press the button, Rook." Ben cried.
"Ben, are you sure? That option is still untested and could possibly end up-"
"Rook, press the button!"
"Alright pressing the botton."
There was a loud beep followed by a few other smaller beeps.
"What is going on, Ben?" The Doctor asked, panicing.
"Okay let's just say I'm not always a Galvantic Mechamorph."
"What do you mean!?"
Suddenly the entire ship returned to normal colors and the humanoid mechamorph form appeared, "Well you see..." the symbol that was his eye flahsed green three times. A sudden flash of light blinded the Doctor and Clara.
Where the mechamorph stood, Ben was now human. "What is going on here!?" Asked the Doctor phlabergasped.
"Look I'll answer anyquestions you have after we save your ship, but first," Ben tapped his white, square, watch. A hollographic display appeared and many differant faces appeared. Ben appeared to cycle through them for a second before landing on one, "I need to make sure we don't all die." Ben slammed down the plundger. His body felt pulled from the TARDIS and into space, while he could still see what was going on. In a thunderour voice the figure shouted in a voice made of three voices, "ALIEN X!"
"That's not possible..." The Doctor gasped.
"What is that, Doctor?" Clara asked, admiring the thing Ben had become.
The Doctor was speachless, but Alien X waved his hands and the TARDIS slowed to a stop. "Doctor, Clara, are you two all right?"
The two just nodded.
"Then..." Alien X Snapped his fingers. Everyone aborde the TARDIS fell uncontious. From an outside perspective, they had vanished, and indeed they did. They had traveled, unsacathed, to the space bound earth plumber base.
When Clara and the Doctor woke they found them selfs in a set of cots just out side the TARDIS. Ben was lying next to them... uncontious as well.
"Where are we?" The Doctor asked.
"You are on the Earth Plumber base." Said a high pitched annoying voice.
"Technically it's no the Earth Plumber base, since we're in space." Said anothing voice, it was lower and gurgly.
"It is too, because it started on Earth."
"Is not."
"Is too."
The Doctor looked around until he found the source on the ground, two gray frog like aliens. "Um excuse me, why am I outside my ship, and why is the guy who saved us still uncontious?"
The two aliens looked at him, "You mean you don't know what happened?" Said the higher pitched one.
"We though you'd already been debreifed." Said the grogle voiced one.
"No I had not been debriefed, I don't even know who he is." The Doctor paused, "Scratch that, I know his name is Ben Tenyson, and that he can become a Galvanic Mechamorph and a Celestial Sapian."
"Well then allow me to explain," Said the voice of an older man, "Hello there, Mr.?"
"Doctor."
"Doctor, Who?"
"No it's just 'the Doctor'."
"Well, Doctor, my names Max Tenyson, and I can tell you all you need to know about my grandson." Max paused, looking back at Ben, "But first you need to tell me what happened."
"What do you mean?"
"I know Ben didn't just fall uncontious, and until his partner gets here, your story is all I have to go on. So tell me what happened."
And so the Doctor told him what happened.
"That doesn't explain why he'd fall uncontious," Max rubbed his forehead.
"Unidentified DNA located, prepare for scanning." said a voice.
"Who said that?" Asked the doctor.
"Unidentified DNA located, scanning starting." Said the same voice.
"That's the Omnitrix, but what's so nearby that it do-"
A sudden light shown over the Doctor, "DNA sample obtained, assessing sample." The watch on Ben's wrist began to glow yellow.
"Um, Max, what's that thing on his wrist doing."
Max seemed confused, "I've only seen the Omnitrix do something like this when he was 10, so I'm not sure."
The Omintrix suddenly beeped as a large bright green flash changed Ben into... Ben... who began to stir.
"Okay, what just happend to me..." Ben seemed groggy.
"Ben do you feel okay?" Max asked Ben.
"Yeah Grandpa, I fe-" Ben suddenly went mute and wide eye. He started to shake, "I can... feel everything."
"Ben!?" Max paniced, "Are you okay!"
"It can't be," exclaimed the Doctor.
"Grandpa, I can feel the pull of the gravity from the earth, from the sun, from space itself."
"What's going on to him, Doc."
"It's not possible, but I think, somehow, he's become a Time Lord..." The Doctor trailed off, he couldn't believe what he was witnessing.
"Granpa, help me please... this is to much." Ben sounded like he was panicing and in pain.
"Doctor, I don't know what a Time Lord is, but you appear to be one. Please can you help him?"
The Doctor put his glasses on, "Absolutly," He approched Ben, "Look here, Ben, into my eyes." He placed his hands on his shoulders.
Ben looked into the Doctor's eyes, panic and fear was present in his new Time Lord eyes. The Doctor coulnd't believe what he was about to do.
"Alright now stay calm, this may hurt." The Doctor closed his eyes, and headbutted Ben, rendering both of them uncontious once agian.
"BEN!" Max cried.
"DOCTOR!" Clara cried.
It was up to the Doctor to help Ben, but only from inside his head could he find success.
