OK, so I lied, it looks like it's going to be about about three chapters long. Sorry for the delay, but I was very limited on computer time. I was/am making this up as I go along, so it may end up a little random-ish.
I do not own Doctor Who or Torchwood-I do own a Dalek money bank.
"So come on then!" Rose said, as she struggled to keep upright, as the TARDIS flew through the Vortex, "Why'd you turn into a three year old whose had to many E-Numbers when you have coffee?" She finished. The TARDIS shook again and she almost fell to the floor, but the Doctor somehow managed to catch her. He sat her on the chair and continued to jog around the console, jabbing buttons and pulling levers and switches as he went.
"You really need to ask? The mixture of rasongsuphicide and haemochloricflansincoride exceeds the normal levels and causes sever abnormalities in persons personality and behaviour."
"You what?" Rose moaned. She hated it when the Doctor talked techno-talk.
"Me." He pointed to himself "I normally have a little more energy then humans. Coffee gives me more energy. Too much energy and self control goes boom boom bye bye" He pretended to blow up and fell down on his back.
The TARDIS materialised in the Torchwood Hub, sending paper and objects flying as it forced itself into existence. Rose poked her head round the door. The Hub looked like a mini bomb had been detonated inside of it. The walls were blackened where Rose knew the Daleks must have fired and missed. She stepped out, trying not to step on piles of paper and smashed glass. She heard a screeching sound and ducked as a huge pterodactyl swooped down from the ceiling and almost carried her off.
"Myfanwy! Cut that out! They're friends!" Ianto Jones suddenly appeared from behind the smouldering remains of a computer. Myfanwy swooped off screeching in annoyance. Rose stood again, staring in awe after the creature. Gwen Cooper appeared behind Ianto, her quivering hands still clutching at the gun. The Doctor eyed it accusingly and tossed it across the room where it made a loud clatter before Gwen could even register that it had been taken.
"So come on then, where are the Mighty Pepper Pots of Destruction, Doom and DEATH!!!!!" The Doctor emphasised his voice, speaking so low that Rose almost laughed. Almost.
"They're waiting for us. There's an old warehouse over the other side of Cardiff. They told is to take you there when you arrived. We have to go now; we don't know what they're doing to him!" Ianto pleaded, his eyes watering.
"OK, OK! We'll go now, or rather, I will. No-one else, just me. I'll get Jack, send the pepper pots packing and come back, all before tea, OK? Well, strictly speaking it may not be before tea, but what are TARDIS's for?" He said loudly, his voice echoing off the blackened walls.
"No" Gwen said, shakily "They said we all had to come, Thay said that they needed all of us."
"When you say Thay, do you mean Thay or they" Rose piped up, hoping.
"T.H.A.Y. The Cult of Skaro." Ianto sighed.
The three Humans and a Time Lord stood outside the warehouse, preparing for what they would find inside. Rose looked up at the foreboding building, thinking about how the mightiest of the Doctor's enemies had chosen this grimy place for a showdown. The Doctor was already walking forward, Sonic Screwdriver in hand, and what appeared to be a hamster in the other. He set it on the ground.
"Go on Harry, help Daddy out again" He cooed, pointing up at the security camera that was coming their way. Harry squeaked and shot towards the wall. He clung to a wire and scaled it in a matter of seconds, and sat on the platform behind the camera. He looked from the wires, to the socket where it was plugged into the wall. Wire to socket, wire to socket, then he shot over to the socket. He stood up on his hind legs and grabbed the end of the wire in his tiny paws. He pulled and the wire came away from the socket, with a small shower of sparks. Rose, Ianto and Gwen stared in awe as Harry came back to the Doctor's feet and jumped up and down in excitement. They saw that it was actually pointing at the camera and was squeaking as if to say:
"Look Dad, it's stopped, it can't see you now! Now where's my money?"
The Doctor stooped and picked Harry up, letting the tiny creature jump on his palm.
"Cheeky!" He laughed, popping a few pieces of apple into his pocket, depositing the hamster in after.
"You keep a hamster in your pocket?" Ianto asked incredulously, beating Rose by a second.
"He has his own little compartment, and he's not JUST a hamster. He's from the planet Squeakfil, and I offered him his own coat, but he only wanted a little pocked. He's so modest, is little Harry." The Doctor protested.
They walked forward, past the dead camera and pushed open the huge steel doors. They groaned and grated as they were opened, making the party wince. They walked onwards, through corridors and down stairs, their footsteps echoing off the walls. They entered a large room, and Rose knew that this was where they were meant to be. It was the smell that gave it away, the smell of fresh blood, strong enough to make her have to fight the urge to wretch. The lights flared and suddenly, they were surrounded by killer pepper pots, their eyestalks glowing blue.
"The Doctor has come! He is here, at his end, at his doom!" Said the black Dalek. "Dalek Thay, Dalek Jast, Dalek Caan, secure the prisoners" He boomed. The three Daleks moved to surround the party, while Sec rolled backwards and looped a chain around his gun by moving it around in circles until it got caught. He moved forwards again and pulled Jack along with him, he was bruised and bloodied, but walking on his own and smiling, positively giggling at the sight of the rescue team.
"You lot took your time, I've been killed 22 times already. What took ya?" He beamed.
"Harry wasn't as quick as usual, played dumb for the others. He likes people to think he's cute." The Doctor said simply, as if it were obvious.
Jack looked towards Rose. "Harry?" He mouthed.
"I'll explain later!" She mouthed back.
"You will come with us, Ianto Jones, or the man you love dies................. Again!" Sec added as an afterthought, completely ruining the effect of the speech, and sounding a little confused as to why he had to say that.
"NO!" Ianto gasped, and Gwen held onto his arm.
"Take me instead, leave him alone." The Doctor stood in front on Ianto, between him and the Daleks.
"You are not needed right now Time Lord, stand aside" Sec ordered, and rolled towards him, menacingly. The Doctor didn't move. "So be it!" Sec aimed his gun at the Doctor and fired. The Doctor's body lit up and he screamed in agony, before dropping to the floor. Rose was at his side in an instant, snatching the Sonic Screwdriver up fro the floor, before the Daleks could spot it. Jack swore loudly and tried to run to the Time Lord, but was stopped when he was shot down too; causing Ianto and Gwen to start screaming blue murder.
"Oh God, Doctor! No, please!" She whispered, rolling him over onto his back, clutching at his hand. She felt his chest, both hearts were beating. What? "What did you do to him?" She yelled at Sec.
"The Cult of Skaro has obtained a new setting for our weapons. This setting does not kill the target, yet renders it unconscious. Now, Ianto Jones, you will come." Sec demanded, rolling away slightly, indicating for Ianto to follow. He looked to Jack, slumped against the wall, and then at the Doctor, lying on the cold floor, Rose stroking his hair, then at Gwen, staring at him, pleading with him.
"OK, what do I do?" He sighed, walking towards the pepper pots, for the good of his friends.
Thanks for reading so far. Sorry if Gwen was a little out of character, I just don't know how to write her, sorry again. And sorry for the wait. I will try to update quicker this time.
Reviews make me happy. I need 13 before I update this time. Please don't kill me (Runs off and hides, then remembers she left her e-mail unchecked, creeps back and giggles at her own insanity!) Reviewers get bananas!
