A Strange Visit
Written by Seiryuu-san
Part 2
"Who did you say you were?" Integra asked exhaling.
"The Doctor and this is Leela," the Time Lord said. "And we left poor K9 alone down stairs." Just as he said this, a black hair girl fazed through the wall K9 in her arms. The Doctor smiled when he saw his robotic friend and got up to greet him. Leela however bounded to her feet in a fighting stands and pulled out her knife.
"Doctor, look out, she's a demon!" the warrior cried out and attacked. Miya glared at the woman.
"Who you calling demon?" the vampiress said as she moved to avoid Leela's attack.
"Leela! Stop this at once!" the Doctor shouted only to find that she wasn't listening. Pulling out a knife of her own, Miya defended herself as Leela continued to attack. Hmm, she's good. I'm going to a have fun with this one, Miya thought smiling wildly. Now royally pissed, Integra called for Alucard. When the No-Life King appeared, he noticed his daughter battling with some strange woman.
'Miya what is the meaning of this? This is not the place to be playing!' The sudden sound of her father's voice in her head distracted Miya enough for Leela to slash her across the face. The girl cried out in pain. Leela smiled at her wounded opponent. Wiping some blood from the cut, Miya glared at Leela and they continued to fight. As they passed him, Alucard grabbed the two women by the wrist. Both Integra and the Doctor sighed in relief.
"You called my Master," he said holding onto his prisoners.
"Yes, take your daughter and stand behind my desk!" she yelled irritated. Turning to the Doctor she stated, "You, take your friend and keep her under control! I will not tolerant this behaviour in my office!" Hearing this Alucard released the warrior, who turned to face the two vampires. But before she could make another move, the Doctor grabbed her be the arm. He then forced Leela to sit on the floor. Taking her knife the Time Lord put it in his pocket and told his companion to be quiet.
Eyeing the two pairs, Integra glanced at Miya and demanded to know why she had appeared. The vampiress bowed and said, "I'm sorry Sir Hellsing, I didn't mean to interrupt. But I thought you'd like to see the robot as well." Integra accepted the apology and turned her attention on the time travelers.
"Now before Miya here interrupted…" Integra started.
"Miya that is a lovely name." the Doctor said giving the vampiress a toothy smile.
"Th… Thank you," she said timidly. Before the Doctor could say another word, Integra slammed her fist on the desk.
"Doctor, are you're quite done?"
"Yes, yes. What would you like to know?" They glared at each other for a minute or two, and then Integra cleared her throat.
"Good. Now how did you get here?"
"Why, in the TARDIS, of course. The old girl is parked in your garage. I'd be happy to show you."
"The TARDIS? Is that what you call that blue box I saw appeared out of nowhere?" Miya asked. The Doctor nodded with pride.
"The what?" Integra asked confused.
"The TARDIS. It stands for Time and Relative Dimension in Space," the Time Lord said knowingly. Integra glared at him and said coldly, "I must warn you, Doctor, I don't appreciate jokers."
"My dear lady, I assure you I'm not joking." His response was another glare.
"Are you trying to say that you can travel through time?" Miya asked sceptically.
"Oh, not just time but space as well." the Doctor reassured her. He was about to explain but was silenced when Integra slammed on her desk again. The Doctor turned to face the director.
"Is that really necessary?" he asked annoyed. Integra throw the Time Lord a deadly glare but he simply ignored it. Seeing that she wasn't going to get anything else from this stranger, Integra angrily dismiss the vampires and commanded Walter to take the Doctor and his companions to a holding cell.
Once in his room, Alucard threw Miya to the floor, surprising Seras. Never in all his time of serving the Hellsing woman did he see her so angry. Seras looked from her husband to her daughter and back.
"Do I want to know?" she asked patiently.
"Our daughter here was playing with some strange woman in the office of the Lady Hellsing… while she was in it." Alucard told Seras.
"Father please, it wasn't my fault. That woman attacked me first," Miya said from the floor. "I swear I was defending myself but…"
"But?" Seras asked watching her daughter.
"But I lost myself in the fun of the moment. She was no match for me, though." Miya said with a smile. Seeing the look in her father's eyes she lowering her head. Alucard sighed and sat down beside his daughter.
"The only reason we are kept alive is to serve the Lady Hellsing. Your mother joined Hellsing after I turned her. She was allowed to stay as long as she worked for Integra. However when your mother was pregnant with you, I had to work very hard to convince Sir Hellsing that we should keep you. The day you were born, my Master finally agreed with one condition: that when you became of age, you would join us in the battle of eliminating the FREAKS and serve her. But she warned me if you ever endangered her life or the Organization, the three of us would be locked up." Alucard paused as Seras placed a hand on his shoulder. "And that stunt you pulled could have done just that." he added. Miya looked at her father, he had taken his glass off and she could see sadness in his eyes. She leaned in close and hugged him.
"I'm sorry father. I'll go and apologize to her right now." Miya told him and got up to leave.
"Miya, maybe you should wait until tomorrow. Give Miss Integra time to cool down." Seras said. Miya agreed, not really wanting to face the Ice Queen just yet. She decided to go to her room. Noticing the bucket, Miya walked to the table and saw that all the ice had melted and that the bag of medical blood was floating about in the water. Shrugging her shoulders, she grabbed the bag and bit into it, sucking at the blood. When she was done, she changed out of her uniform and into a pair of black pants and a red tank top with a black fishnet top over it. Both the pants and shirt hugged her form beautifully. Her long black hair was separated into two pigtails tied at the base of her neck. To finish the look of the outfit, Miya throw on a long leather coat.
"You stupid girl!" the Doctor shouted at Leela when Walter had closed the door behind them. He wasn't too thrilled with the way Leela had acted.
"What possessed you to attack that girl? She did nothing to you. Well?" Leela had trouble answering the Time Lord's questions; she had never seen him so angry. She tried to explain her actions but failed. The Doctor ran his fingers through his hair and sat down on the bed.
"What am I going to do with you?" he said sighing. Leela was so ashamed that she huddled into the corner of the room. The Doctor watched her and thought rest would be a good idea. Putting his hat on the little table beside the bed and throwing his coat and scarf on the floor, he then lied down and closed his eyes.
A couple of hours passed, when the Doctor awoke to the sound of tapping on the metal door. He groaned.
"K9 is that you making that noise?" he accused the automaton.
"Negative, Master."
"Well see who is, will you. That's a good boy." K9's 'ears' wiggled as his sensors told him that the sound came from the door. He glided across the floor and stopped.
"Please identify yourself," he said.
"It's Miya. I wish to speak to the Doctor," the voice told the robot. K9 turned around and glided to the bed.
"Master."
"Yes, K9, what is it?"
"Someone to see you, Master."
"Alright." the Doctor said. He sat up, turned on the little table light and told the person to come in. Miya fazed through the door and noticed the Doctor sitting on the bed.
"Oh I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were resting. If you want I can come back later."
"No, please come in sit down. What can I do for you?" the Doctor asked getting up to pick up his coat and scarf. Miya went and sat down at the foot of the bed.
"Would you like a Jelly Baby?" the Doctor asked her as he sat down on the bed. Curious to know what a 'Jelly Baby' was, Miya accepted his offer. She watched the Time Lord as he pulled out an old paper bag from one of his coat pockets. The Doctor smiled and tossed a candy into his mouth. Then he passed the bag to Miya. She reached in and pulled out a candy, it was blue and looked like a little person, and popped it into her mouth. She was able to chew it but had lots of difficulty swallowing. When she was sure the sweet wasn't going to come back, she went strait to the point of her visit.
"I'd like to apologize for fighting with your companion… Leela I believe was her name." Miya told the Doctor.
"Yes, well that's Leela for you… Wait a minute, how do you know her name? I didn't tell you." he asked wide-eyed.
"I heard you calling to her, during our battle." she told him.
"Oh, I see." the Doctor said as he throw on his coat then started to wrap his scarf around his neck. When he was done, the Doctor walked to the door.
"What are you doing?" Miya asked walking to his side.
"I'm leaving. Never liked staying in one spot," he said pulling out a long silver object.
"What's that?" she asked admiring the object.
"It's my sonic screwdriver. It's a very useful tool," the Doctor answered. She watched as he turned it on and heard a faint humming noise as he worked on the lock. After a couple of seconds a click was heard and the Doctor smiled. Poking his head out the Doctor saw that all was clear. Then he stepped out of the room, only to be pulled back inside.
"What is it, Miya?" he said looking at the girl holding onto the back of his coat.
"You can't just go waltzing about; you'll get caught… again. And if you thought Sir Integra was mad earlier, that would be nothing if she finds out you were walking about."
"What do you propose I do?" said the Doctor as Miya closed and locked the door. Going to K9 the Doctor told the automaton to watch over Leela.
"Affirmative, Master." the robot answered. Miya promised the computer-dog that she would protect his master and bring him back soon. Then she hugged the Doctor and the two fazed through the floor.
Before the Time Lord could blink, he found himself standing outside in the gardens, Miya smiling at him. He looked at her not too sure what happened. When the Time Lord tried to walk his legs gave out. Surprised Miya caught him before he fell to the ground and helped him to a nearby bench.
"Oh Doctor, I'm so sorry. I wasn't thinking. Father warned me about the side affects fazing has on humans." she said rubbing his legs trying to get feeling back into them.
"Why does everyone think I'm human?" he asked himself. Miya looked up at him and smiled.
"Are you saying that you're not?" she asked mischief in her eyes.
"Of course I'm not," he said indignantly.
"Then what are you?" Miya asked standing up.
"I'm a Time Lord. I come from a planet called Gallifrey," he told the girl smiling. Miya leaned in and gazed at him. Then she moved to the side of his head. The Doctor shivered slightly when he felt her breath on his cheek.
"I guess that would explain your two hearts," she whispered in his ear. When she faced the Doctor again, he stared at her wide-eyed. He was about to say something but Miya stopped him by placing a finger on his lips.
"Your secret's safe with me." she said in a low voice and winked at him as she sat down beside him. Well I walked onto that one, he thought running his hand through his hair.
"Just out of curiosity, what are you?" the Doctor asked standing up to test his legs.
"I'm a vampire." Miya smiled. "A child of the night." she continued dramatically.
"Well, that certainly explains a lot." the Doctor said with a thoughtful look.
"Like?"
"Your fangs for one. Then there are your red eyes and your pale skin. Plus you seem to heal faster then the average person and you go through things." he said walking away. Miya stood up and quickly rejoined him.
"And that doesn't scare you?"
"No. Should it?" It was her turn to stare at the Doctor wide-eyed.
"Well yeah! Do you not know what a vampire is?"
"Of course I do. Your weaknesses are the sun, any kind of holy relics and silver. Having a stake thrust through your heart can kill you. And…" the Doctor turned to face Miya. "You seduce and kill your victims by draining them of their blood."
"I have never killed a human in my life!" the vampiress growled in defence. The Doctor looked at her sceptically.
"How do you stay alive then?"
"By drinking donated medical blood."
Nodding he pocketed his hands and started walking again. Miya followed close behind.
"Where are you going, Doctor?"
"To see London. The last time I saw it was in the 50s…" he paused, a puzzled look on his face. "Now was that 1650 or 2650… Oh well it doesn't matter." Miya stared at him not believing her ears but didn't press the matter. Hooking her arm around his, Miya led him to the front gate and out onto the streets of London.
As they walked about the city, the Doctor pointed out certain differences between Miya's London and the London he had visited so long ago. After a while, he changed the subject to tell Miya of his travels. Every now and then the vampiress would laugh. As he told her about one of his worst enemies, he explained how they would go about exclaiming "Exterminate!" what they looked like and how they would claim to be the masters of the universe.
"And what do these things called themselves?" Miya asked as she continued to walk. When she didn't get an answer, she stopped and faced the Time Lord. Approaching him, Miya noticed a mixture of sadness and anger in his eyes. She placed a hand on his cheek.
"Doctor?" she said concerned. The Time Lord looked at her and gave her a small smile. "What's the matter? Did I do something wrong?"
"No, of course not." he said quietly. "It's more what I've done." Seeing the confusion on Miya's face, the Doctor sighed, took her by the hand and led her to a nearby bench. When they sat down, Miya smiled inwardly when the Doctor didn't let go of her hand. He sighed again and started to explain.
"As you know I travel through Time and Space." Miya nodded. "Well some time after my release from exile and regeneration, my people sent me and my companions to a planet called Skaro…" The Doctor stopped talking, but the vampiress encouraged him to continue. He closed his eyes and breathed. "I was sent there to avert the Daleks' creation or to affect their genetic development."
"Daleks?"
"Yes, that's the name they were given."
"Oh." Miya fall silent as the Doctor continued his explanation.
"I tried to convince their chief scientist, Devros, that if he went on with his experiments, he would create the worst kind of monsters known in the universe. When that didn't work I decided to destroy them forever." He stopped talking again, got up and walked away. In his anger, the Time Lord hit a wall. Miya rejoined him and cradled his sore hand.
"I take it your idea didn't work." she said giving the hand a little kiss. The Doctor shook his head. Then he closed his eyes as the memories flowed back.
"After I had set all the explosives, all I had to do was to touch two wires together and the Daleks would be no more," he said.
"But?"
"I hesitated. I started to question my decision." Miya stared at the time traveler.
"Why? If these Daleks are as evil as you say they are, then you had every right to rid the universe of them." The Doctor chuckled.
"You and Sarah would have gotten along beautifully," he told her. "She also told me that I shouldn't hesitate in killing them."
"Then why?" The Doctor looked at her.
"Because if I did, I'd be no different then the Daleks."
"But…"
"Let me tell you something I told Sarah." interrupted the Doctor. "If someone who know the future pointed out a child to you and told you that that child would grow up totally evil, to be a ruthless dictator who would destroy millions of lives, could you than kill that child?"
"It depends." Miya said.
"On what?"
"On whom the child is."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because if the child was my father before he was turned then no I wouldn't kill him. But if the child was Anderson, then I'd kill him in a heartbeat."
"I see." the Doctor said.
"Of course if that happened then my father wouldn't have a play mate." Miya said thoughtfully. From the corner of her eye, she could see the Doctor looking at her in shook. Miya giggle.
"We should head back," she said once she calmed down. The Doctor started to complain, which caused Miya to giggle again. She silenced him by placing a finger on his lips and said, "We have to. Besides K9's waiting for you." As she walks away the Doctor put on a stubborn face. Pulling his hat down and throwing his hands in his pockets, he refused to move. Suddenly Miya cried out. The Doctor looked up and saw a long silver blade sticking out of the draculina shoulder.
