Doctor Who – Rebellion – Episode 1

(TARDIS lands in the Times Square of a very strange place.)

(Inside the TARDIS)

"Doctor, where have we landed this time?" Harry asks.

"I hope it's not Skaro," Sarah Jane adds

"No, no", begins the Doctor in his 4th incarnation "We are definitely not on Skaro"

"Well, then where are we?" Sarah asks.

"Let's go find out!" the Doctor begins as he starts walking out the door.

(Outside the TARDIS)

The Doctor, Sarah and Harry step out of the TARDIS. They find themselves in a spectacular city, a very rich one as well. The walkways and streets are lined with sparkling gems, that would be considered valuable on present-day Earth.

"Look at all these gems;" Sarah begins "They are almost transparent."

"Um, excuse me. Where are we?" The Doctor asks a stranger

"Earth, of course;" the stranger starts to explain, "In 2273, The Great European Empire."

"2273? Oh, yes, of course. You seem very rich, I presume" The Doctor says.

"'Ave you been living under a rock? The government is, but not us. We are treated like animals, the government has all this money, and we are living poor in the streets. They control everything we do, if we don't worship them we will be executed" the stranger continues. "That's why I'm part of a rebellion; they treated us like crap for so many years. That is why we will overthrow the government in a few, short months."

"Oh, I see." The Doctor tells the stranger. "One last question: what are those machines over there?"

"Those?" the stranger tells "Just some silly trash machine used to destroy trash. I believe they are called the Amorkuz."

"Thanks, I wish you good luck on your rebellion" the Doctor tells the stranger

"Wait," the stranger begins. "I want to show you something."

"Why me?" the Doctor asks

"You seem trustworthy, plus I need someone to look at this machine I have found." The stranger says. "You seem like a repairman to say the least."

"I will look, but I cannot guarantee that I will know about this machine of yours, but I have time," the Doctor smiles, "What is your name, by the way?"

"Oh, my name is Peter Jones" the stranger whispers

"Hello, Peter Jones. I'm the Doctor." The doctor begins, "Come on Sarah and Harry, we are going to make a short stop."

Sarah and Harry follow behind the Doctor, as they begin to find out where they are…

(Outside the house of Peter Jones)

"Welcome to my humble home," Peter starts. "Would you care for some tea?"

"No, we have everything we need," the Doctor begins. "Where is this machine you where you wanted me to see?"

"Downstairs," Peter begins "I will stay up here and, um, drink some tea. I have had bad experiences with that thing down there."

"Okay, then." The Doctor exclaims "Harry, Sarah, come with me."

(The Doctor, Sarah, and Harry are walking down the stairs.)

"Doctor, are we really 300 years in the future?" Harry asks

"It seems too advanced." Sarah adds

"I am afraid we are." The Doctor tells the two. "There it is."

The doctor points at the machine as the three go over to look at it.

"Doctor, do you have any idea of what it could be?" Harry asks.

"It looks like and old, bulky computer." Sarah adds

"No, this is rather something more sinister. It's a super weapon." The Doctor begins. "This is a spy machine from over 100 years ago, from 2168 to be exact."

"Why was it put out of use?" Sarah Jane asks.

"Probably because they got better equipment, when you advance you get rid of old advancements. You do this until there is nothing left to improve. Unfortunately, the amazing pieces of machinery that were once astonishing and advanced were just put out of use." The Doctor explains.

Sarah picks up a strange looking handheld machine. "What do you think this is?"

"Probably, a new age weapon or gun. Let me see it." The Doctor responds.

The Doctor then picks up the weapon. "Looks like a Laser 2231, a somewhat recent weapon."

Harry takes the weapon. "Let me see that." He examines the weapon but accidentally fires it. The laser hits a crate and a small explosion takes place.

"My god, it blew up that crate!" Harry exclaims.

"And that Harry is why we don't play with futuristic laser guns," the Doctor tells Harry.

(Upstairs in Peter's home)

"Well, those trash compactor things always seem to fascinate me." Peter says to himself, watching the machine take out his garbage.

He takes his tea and walks over to the television. On the television there is a breaking news report.

"People are dying randomly in the streets, I'm sure it's the work of the government, but somehow I can't prove it."

Suddenly, a loud crash occurs as an Amorkuz crashes though the door of Peter's house.

Peter drops his tea and trips and falls on the floor. He is dumbstruck.

The Amorkuz udders "Name: Peter Jones ; Crime: Rebellion against the government ; Sentence: Death"
