Pairing : Shalka!Doctor x Shalka!Master
Rating: T
Disclaimer: I do not own Doctor Who or Scream of the Shalka, it's only my opinion about what could have happened after the end of the webseries Doctor Who: Scream of the Shalka (you can watch it on Dailymotion if it's still on).
Other: In this story, there are the Doctor, the Master and Alison, a companion who appeared in Scream of the Shalka. I'll go with two POVs: one with the Master and one with Alison.
Besides I'm French but I decided to do this fiction in English so that everybody can read it. Tell me if I made a spell or grammar mistake.
POV Alison
It's been a little time now Alison had decided to join the Doctor and live in the Tardis for a while. What she had lived the first time she met him was quite a nightmare while awaken but she sort of liked it anyway. Maybe she was a little bonkers like these two actually. There was the Doctor, who enjoyed travelling across time and space, meeting strange and often dangerous creatures like these Shalkas who tried to take over the Earth by parasitizing people. It seemed it wasn't the first and much less the last time he lived that. He was the most reckless guy she's met. She liked him.
And there was the Master. She didn't know what to think about him. She only knew he was a very old friend of the Doctor this latter had turned into an android though they haven't told her why. He didn't seem to like Alison much. The rare times he talked to her either he was making fun of her or trying to hypnotize her, which didn't please the Doctor. He acted as a kind of assistant for the Doctor. That made her coming up with that question: Why then is he called the Master? She assumed it didn't matter. The Tardis has just landed. She went to the door.
POV Master
The Master, well, ex-Master now, never liked that girls-regarding habit the Doctor had. Even when he was at last travelling with him, this idiot kept proposing to lovely young women he bumped into. These girls were mere pathetic humans meant to obey. This one was maybe a bit cleverer but she was still a human. And the most frustrating was he was spending more time with her as if he was just a stand-in companion. No, not even a companion, he was his servant-maid, always asked to clean up, wipe, cook, scour, tidy up, repair and of course do this dear Doctor's whore at night and sometimes at day.
Every day he was wondering why the Doctor had saved him back on Gallifrey. Surely because he needed a stooge at that time. And he dared say he did that because he loved him! It's just because there was no one left except him. The Master was 100% sure that if there had had someone else less psychotic and less world conquest-wishing than him, the Doctor would have chosen him or her. Why was he remaining here yet? Oh yes! Because he couldn't leave the Tardis! This sadist of a Doctor had linked the battery that kept him alive with the Tardis' core. He really made all that was possible to ruin his life, well at least what looked like a life.
Since his childhood, the Master always wanted to conquer and rule and now he was on the opposite side. The Doctor had decided to destroy everything he was in a slower and more unbearable way than just killing him…
So how could he still love him? How could he still want to save him when he's in trouble and while all he deserves are death and pain? How could he simply still love while his first one horribly broke his hearts* and this one always slips through his fingers and run away from him when he gets the chance?
Maybe he was a masochist and the Doctor had taken advantage of it, or maybe he was just a coward and followed the Doctor not to die. He always hoped he could finally find answers but he never managed to. Here, the Tardis has landed. The Doctor and Alison are still going out smiling and leaving him all alone. Just another day.
