The Cybermen Invasion of Newport
A Doctor Who/OC crossover.
For Doctor Who, this takes place between The Curse of Fenric and Survival.
For the OC, it takes place after the Goodbye Girl.
…..
Newport Beach had been invaded.
By a heat wave.
Even though the sun had set long ago, the outside still felt like a furnace. Most Newportians were staying inside, sleeping as close as they could to fans and the AC.
For the youth of Newport, however, who liked to stay away from preying eyes, however, there were always other places to go, or break into.
'Don't bogart that' Bill said as he grabbed the flask from the drunk girl. He was too drunk to remember her name at the moment.
'Bogart?' she asked.
'I heard it on some show, it means give me some of that bottle' he replied.
His parents would have freaked if they knew. As far as they knew, he was staying faithful to some stuck-up bitch who wouldn't put out. With the heat wave, he was afraid they were going to have to skip tonight. Fortunately, he found this new building. It was some science center or something stupid like that. It was built by the Newport Group, like most of the buildings there, for some British company. He didn't really care about that, only that for some reason, they had a huge cooling center in the basement.
What it was for, he didn't know. All it had were chambers, but they had nothing in them. It looked like they were built to house, well, people. Pretty big ones, too, by the size of them.
He didn't really care about that, though. He had far more interesting things to focus on.
He was distracted when he heard a weird, clicking sound. He looked to see a door had lifted up, a door he hadn't noticed. There was no light, but he could make out a tall man staring at them. Judging by the weird figure on top, a man with a strange taste in hats.
'What're you standing for, perv, you like to watch!?' he yelled. Maybe this guy would get embarrassed and go away, giving him enough time to get out. Instead, the man started to walk up to them.
Crap. He turned and got to run, when he felt a hand grab his shoulder.
He gasped in pain. Who ever this guy was, he was strong. Stronger than anyone he had met.
'Okay, okay, you got us!' he said, throwing his hands. Despite this, the figure made no response, and instead turned the other way, dragging them with him.
Jesus, he was strong.
Still, he wasn't too worried. His parents would be pissed, but they were friends with Caleb Nichol, so he doubted he have any charges pressed against him.
He took them through the door, into a large room. The light went on, and he finally got a look at the guy.
He gasped in surprise. He was wearing a costume. His body was covered with some kind of metallic wrapping. He was wearing a weird metal mask, with large hands and handlebars on the side.
Great, he been caught by some kind of freak. He looked around to see other guys also dressed like this. They all looked the same, save for one, whose handlebars were black.
'I caught these two in the stasis chambers' his captor spoke. The girl was pretty out of it, but even she recognized the weird, deep, metallic tone he said this in.
'If we let them go, they will tell others' another said, sounding exactly the same.
Wait, did he say 'If they let them go.' What did they mean? They couldn't keep him here, could they?
'Is the conversion chamber operating yet' a third asked. Another nodded, and went over to a large machine, and pressed buttons on a console. The huge thing seemed to light up.
One came up and grabbed the girl, and brought her over to the machine. They put her on a table leading into the machine, like an assembly line. They strapped her in, and then pressed another button. As Bill watched in horror, she went into the machine.
'Okay, what the fuck is going on!' he demanded. Then, he heard what sounded like power tools inside the machine. Then he heard her scream. It was a terrible, horrible thing, agonizing.
'What are you doing to her!?' he demanded, less out of a concern for a loved one and more out of a general humanity. Again, no one reacted to him.
Then, to his horror, they brought him over to the machine. He struggled to break free, but the guy holding him didn't even budge. It was like the guy wasn't human.
That was impossible, though. Wasn't it.
He efforts continued to be in vain as he was strapped down.
'What's going on! What's going to happen to me!?" he demanded, tears running down.
One of them leaned in to him.
'You will be like us.'
