Chapter 3
Purposeful Plans
Once out of the throne room, the Doctor said, "My friend, Cherry, is working in the kitchen, and..." "The kitchen is the perfect place to hide something which needs heat. Someone is always coming in with something, and it's always busy. We start there!" The Detective interrupted. The Detective walked ahead with Jene, and the Doctor followed. The Doctor was silently grumbling to himself, while following, and thinking, "I don't know who she thinks she is, but the sooner this is finished, the better! In all my lives, I have never been so impatient to be attacked by another life form!" The Detective thought, "Looks like it's working!"
When they entered the kitchen, Cherry looked up, and said, "They are above the boiler." Cherry had her eyes narrowed at the Detective, as if suspecting something. The Doctor, the Detective, and Jene walked over to the boiler, and Jene asked, "Okay, does anyone know what those are?" "Sic Loucus! Alone, they are nothing, but if they are together, they build up energy," the Doctor replied. "So, we should get rid of them, somehow, right?" Jene asked. "Even while powering up, they are still extremely dangerous. Someone turned them on. If anyone touches them at present, they will ignite," the Detective said. The Doctor looked at the Detective, and said, "Yes, the controller needs to be found." "So, any ideas on how to get to the ceiling?" Jene asked, eyeing the detective. "That's my job!" the Detective said, "My mother was a fairy!" As the Detective floated to the ceiling, wind was felt. When she got to the bats, her right hand hit her left arm, and she let her left arm do the scanning work, while her right hand froze the clockwork bats. The Detective said, "There is one missing!" The Detective floated down, and said, "Whoever is controlling them, they only put five up there." "Meaning?" Jene asked. "Meaning, unless we find the sixth, nothing can turn them off!" The Doctor said, "There is an override function, which can't be turned off, unless all six are together. Even the Sonic Screwdriver will be useless, unless all six are together." "So, when all combine, we can shut them down?" Jene asked. "There is something bigger here. I can't say what, but whoever is controlling these creatures has a plan. He knows what we will do, and has put up a trap," the Detective said. "We should lay our own trap!" Jene said. "Do you really believe the Mastermind will appear at the completion of his plan?" the Doctor asked, sarcastically. "No! I believe the sixth Sic Loucu will, and I am certain it will appear at the Coronation!" the Detective said, "We can reprogram one then." "Right! Let's get prepared," the Doctor said.
