Chapter 2: New Saviors
This chapter is set between "The Doctor Dances", and "Boom Town". I see some people have visited my story. Which is fantastic
"Where are we?" Asked Rose to the Doctor across the console
"Go see." Said the Doctor back to her
"I think Jack gets to open the door this time." Said Rose "It is his first TARDIS ride."
"Fine." Said the Doctor "Jack. Go see what's outside."
"Okay." Said Jack "Are you sure there's nothing dangerous outside?"
"Yep."
"Okay." Said Jack striding over to the door "Wow." He said as the door opened to a bright, and exuberant place
"Where are we?" Said Rose taking hold of the Doctor's hand and leading them both outside
"This is the planet Persepheous in the Persepheous galaxy." Said the Doctor "The TARDIS brought us here. I'm not sure why."
"Well." Said Rose "It is beautiful." Rose took a moment to look around at the incredibly bright space before her. They had landed in a field full of purple grass, with towering trees, and a beautiful sun-filled atmosphere.
"Why would it bring us here?" Asked Jack
"I don't know." Said the Doctor
"It likes to keep us up with trouble." Said Rose
"Shall we go find some?" Asked the Doctor to Rose
"Of course." Said Rose following the Doctor "Are you coming' Jack?"
"Yeah." Said Jack snapping out of his reverie and following the pair
"Dad!" Yelled Eve "Let me out of these cuffs."
"No my darling I cannot." Said Coro
"Why the fuck not?!" Yelled Eve, straining against her bonds in the small cell-like room. Her father had brought her immediately here after leaving her mom. Once they got here he put her in cuffs.
"You are to face the tribunal." Said Coro
"What?! Who?" Asked Eve
"The tribunal is a group of our elders that hold the trials for all of the illegitimates." Said Coro taking a seat on the other side of his daughters cell
"Illegitimates?" Asked Eve still not truly believing where she was
"You my dear are an illegitimate." Said Coro "Our race prides itself on being pure, and I have defiled our laws."
"I thought you were bringing me here for training." Asked Eve
"No I just told that to your mother, so she wouldn't put up a fight." Said Coro
"What happens at the meeting?" Asked Eve
"Well a few different things will happen." Said Coro
"Like what?" Asked Eve
"They will gather my current family, and decide their punishments for my transgressions, they will decide my punishment…" Trailed Coro
"And?" asked Eve
"And, they will decide on which way to kill you." Said Coro
"Kill me?" Asked Eve "Why did you bring me here, if they were only going to kill me?"
"I had to my dear."
"I am your fucking blood daughter!" Yelled Eve
"But you are half human so you will have to die." Said Coro "In order to keep our bloodlines clean."
"You can't do this!" Yelled Eve struggling against her bonds "Let me go!"
"No one is going to help you." Said Coro "The whole arena is full of people waiting to watch you die. I wonder what they will choose. We haven't had any illegitimates drawn, and quartered in a while…"
"Help!" Screamed Eve one more fleeting time before the guards came to take her and her father away to the arena.
"I wonder what's going on over there." Said Jack pointing to a huge roman-like arena with a line of people outside of it waiting to get inside
"Let's go find out." Said the Doctor looking to Rose "Shall we?"
"Yes we shall." Said Rose taking hold of the Doctors arm
"Well hello there." Said Jack to the woman in front of him "This planet seems to have beautiful treasures."
"Why thank you." Said the woman back to him
"Hi. Captain Jack Harkness at your service." He said grabbing her hand, and capturing it with a kiss.
"And they said chivalry is dead." Said the woman while Rose and the Doctor rolled their eyes behind his back
"Excuse me." Interjected the Doctor "Before you two get too cozy. What is going on here?"
"Well you have to know." Said the woman
"Sorry." Said the Doctor "No."
"They found an illegitimate." Said the woman "They are holding the trial here for everyone to see, there hasn't been a trial in a while."
"Refresh my memory, but what is an illegitimate?" Asked the Doctor
"Where have you been living? Under a rock?"
"Yes." Said the Doctor seriously
"Okay." Said the woman "An illegitimate is the offspring of an Ophidian, and another race. They are put on trial to see how they will die, and how their family will be punished."
"They are going to kill a child because of its parents?" Asked Rose
"Yes." Said the woman "It is the only way to keep Ophidian bloodlines purely Ophidian."
"You are blaming a child for what its parents have done?" Asked the Doctor
"Of course." Said the woman "It is the only way."
"We have to save the child Doctor." Said Rose
"Yeah Doctor." Said Jack "This is no good."
"Hey darling." Said the woman behind Jack "Where were we?"
"Completely done." Said Jack turning from her
"What can we do?" Asked Rose
"We need to get inside, and I say wing it from there." Said Jack
"Hey." Said the Doctor 'Who's in charge here?"
"Sorry." Said Jack putting his hands up in mock surrender "What do you think we need to do Doctor?"
"I think we need to get inside, and wing it from there."
"That's what I said." Jack said
"Fantastic!" Yelled the Doctor grabbing Rose's hand, and running off with jack trailing behind
"You do not have to do this dad!" Yelled Eve tied to a pole in the middle of a Roman era arena
"The illegitimate will be silent!" Yelled a tall man in robes, with eyes that could burn the hair off a cat
"The fuck I will be!" Yelled Eva "You are just going to fucking kill me anyway!"
"If you are silent it may be painless." Said a woman passing by and heading to one of the chairs setup around the pole that her, and her father were tied to
"I don't give a fuck! I am not going down without a fight!" Yelled Eve
"Shut up." Said Coro into his daughters ear "You will only make it worse for both of us.
"Make it worse for both of us!" Yelled Eve "I am the one that they are going to kill!"
"I like her." Said Jack from the maintenance tunnel they were standing at that was about twenty feet from where Eve, and Coro were being kept "She's spunky."
"No." Said the Doctor
"What?" Asked Jack
"No." Said the Doctor
"Okay." Said Eva to herself "What do they say to do in kidnapping situations? Appeal to your kidnapper's humanity. Psych 101."
"What are you going on about?" Asked Coro
"Hey you!" She yelled to the nearest person seated to her
"What?"
"My name is Eva Elaine Blythe. I am from Copperton, Indiana. I am a human being. I am seventeen years old. I just graduated from high school, class of 2005. I have a mom, a family. Please let me go"
"You're funny." Said the man in robes "It's a shame you have to die."
"Guys did you hear what she just said?" Rose asked to the two men talking about what they were going to do."
"No Rose." Said the Doctor "What?"
"She's a human from 2005."
