Mallik ran; like he'd never run before, he was young and strong, but this soon turned to weakness. Questions rolled in his mind, questions that he wants desperate answers to. What is this figure? Why is it following me? What is going to happen? He wanted to stop and ask but he knew if he did, whatever this figure is, it would kill him. He just had to get away and get away fast.
He scrambled across the heaps of rubble, not knowing where he was going. It was dark, it was always dark here. He ran and ran and promised himself that he would never stop until the time is right to. He wouldn't stop, even though his body was aching and his throat was raw with the gasping and panting. The air was foul, it tasted bad and it smelt bad – the air was filled with pollution. He needed to out run this figure but what ever it was; it was gaining in on him.
Mallik has often wondered why the Earth had come to how it is today, the year 2222. It was a year ago, the year Earth changed. Many called it the end of the world and many others called it the end of independence on the Earth. There was a war, a war that all the countries fought and fought and no-one won, it just destroyed all towns, cities, the whole planet was destroyed. What lies now are a concrete forest of broken houses, crushed paths and fallen buildings, only a few survived. Some escaped; some got on space shuttles and left for planet Rilgar to start a new life. People who were caught leaving were killed on the spot and others just hid and hoped that the war would end and they would survive. The world before the war, it was so beautiful with the skies blue, the air clean, and the sun bright enough that it peeked over the mountains as the children laughed and played. Technology advanced; there were hovercrafts and space shuttles which could zoom you out into space to see the wonders of the universe. Mallik wished he had one, he would take off to lead a new life in planet Rilgar but they were all destroyed in the war. But Mallik has one thing more important on his mind at this moment in time and this was to get away from this figure that chased him.
Though Mallik was awfully tired, he ran and ran, not looking back but trying to outrun this figure. Mallik came to a half broken wall; he threw himself at it, trying to clamber over it. As the figure approached him coming closer and closer, he became more desperate to get away; finally he managed to pull himself over it and stumbled down a slope of bricks. He landed roughly and took a moment to regain his breath and looked to see if the figure is in sight. All he could see is the pile of bricks he just tumbled down with the tall wall he climbed over, but no figure. Mallik thought he out run this figure but a second later he saw a hand grabbing on the wall, then a second, he froze like ice and needed to make decision whether to try to carry on running or too stay. Moments later a frightful figure came and stood over him. Shaking with fear Mallik slowly looked up at it, he saw a face, a face with long flame coloured hair, a girl, it was a girl. He stared further; she was dressed in a mini skirt with thin black tights, a cop top and a jacket.
"Quick, get up it's coming," she said, panting like she had been running too. Mallik was relieved to see another human and smiled.
"Come on, it's coming," the woman said again, she held out her hand.
"What's coming?" Mallik questioned.
"The guards, the one that was chasing you!" She held her hand in mid air, urging Mallik to take it. He took her hand and struggled to get to his feet. Even though he didn't know her, he felt like he could trust her. "Quick run," she ordered, desperate to get going. They ran trying not to trip up on anything on the ground, and hid behind a pile of rubble for safety.
"I think we have lost him," she smiled with a sigh of relief.
Mallik pursed his lips, "I'm sorry. But what's you name?"
The girl showed her teeth while chortling, "Names Amy, Amy Pond."
"I'm Mallik," he responded, still out of breath. "Why are the guards following me?"
Amy released a lop-sided smirk. "Whoa, little guy. Where have you been? Didn't you know, that the guards are hunting us humans down," Amy said with surprise of his lack of knowledge.
"Hunting? Why are they doing that?" Mallik replied, curiously.
"I'm surprised you don't know, and I am not even from here! The war started because of a leader wanting to take over the Earth, and finished because they succeeded, the leader's guards are out to hunt and kill all humans on Earth and anyone who roams are classed as trespassers and considered as a threat. Humans don't belong on Earth any more," Amy's face dropped to a sad look.
"How do you know such a lot?" He thought it confusing (and a little fascinating at the same time).
"I have this friend; he's not like you and me. He's a time traveller."
"A time traveller! Wow," Mallik said with surprise, but only knowing little about a time traveller in a sense. "Where is he?"
Amy smiled, enjoyed of her close mate catching the boy's attention. "We need to get to his ship first. He should be there."
"Why aren't you with him?" Mallik questioned.
"Oh as you do, every new place we land at I always get exited and run out of the TARDIS to explore without waiting for the Doctor. I ran out and the robot looking thing, identical to the one chasing you, well chased me. Before I ran out of the TARDIS, the Doctor told me everything about this place."
"A T-TARDIS... What on earth is that?" Mallik questioned.
"The spaceship, and before you ask, the Doctor is the Time Travellers name," she answered him.
"Right, Okay, I think I understand," Mallik said confused about it but pretending to understand.
"We need to get past the guard to find my friend," she peered over the rubble and spotted the guard.
"Look," Amy said, and pointed at the guard. "There it is."
Suddenly the guard turned and spotted Amy, with surprise she stood up and started to back away, the guard started to head towards her.
"Oh my, got to act quickly," She bit her lip. The guard suddenly created a ball of electricity, going from hand to hand and shot an electric bolt at Amy. A zigzag of electricity sizzled towards her, crawling through the ground's surface leaving black smoke behind, Amy screamed and dodged. It shot past her, thankfully missing by an inch and hit a brick wall behind her. The guard walked closer and closer to her and backed her into the wall. The guard held out its hand closer and closer with time.
"Right a big guard, a robot looking thing heading towards me, with a big electric hand, it's a robot, yes, it must have a week spot," she muttered to herself. "Mallik, it's a robot, there must be an off switch or something."
Mallik walked behind the guard, knowing that he had to help and listen to Amy. He alerted her.
"There's a vent on his neck! Amy, there's a vent!"
"Yes... I have seen the Sontarans, they have a probic vent. Hit it and it will knock him out." The guard came as close to a metre away from her. "Quick, hurry!" She yelled. Mallik acted quickly and picked up a discarded metal bar lying in the rubble and with all what was left of his strength he swung round and hit the guard on its neck vent. The guard fell to the ground with a THUMP!
There was a moment of relief. "Phew, I thought I was a goner!" Said Amy said with a hand upon her heart.
"What do we do now?" Mallik questioned his heart beat fast and heavy.
"Doctor... Find the Doctor." Amy answered. Suddenly the guard woke and in such a short amount of time, stood up and shot a ball of electricity at Amy. She flew through the air and landed hard on her back on the rough floor, her head crashing down on the wall. She screamed out in pain and began shaking in shock. Suddenly she stopped, her eyes now slowly closing.
"Amy!" Mallik screamed out in shock.
There was no reply.
