The Doctor and Susan

Note: I do not own Doctor who, nor do I own the Doctor, Susan, or the TARDIS. This is for entertainment.

Chapter 3: The Hunt for the Doctor

The Doctor woke up on a bed and looks around.

"He is awake, rejoice my people." A man yelled.

"Excuse me but who are you?" The Doctor asked the man talking.

"Ah, I am very sorry. I am Avon, and we are the tribe of Maro."

"Would you tell me what planet this is?"

"Are you from the stars?"

"Yes, my granddaughter and I are traveling."

"Ah, I see, well this is the Planet Palod. Would you do me the honor of telling me your name?"

"My name, well I am the Doctor."

"Is that your name, or your title?"

"Well, it is my title, but no one has called me by my real name in such a long time."

"Ah, I understand." Avon got up and yelled out to the crowd. "This man is the Doctor, and he is the one."

"If you would excuse me, good sir, but would you tell me what the one is?"

"Do not worry, at the moment all that should be on your mind should be the feast."

"What about the thing that attacked me?"

"My pet, I must apologies, it was only meant to bring you here."

"Ah, well consider it an accepted apology. More importantly, my granddaughter is still out there."

"We will send out some of our best men to search for her. We will send them in the direction that my pet came from."

Susan was searching for the past several hours in the jungle. "Grandfather. Grandfather, where are you?"

"Hello?" A voice cried out. "Are you Susan?"

"Yes, I am, who are you?"

"Hold on, stay where you are, I will come to you. I am a friend of the Doctor."

After a minute the man got to Susan.

"So you are a friend of my grandfather?" Susan asked.

"Well, friend may be the wrong word. A better way to say it would be that I am on the Doctors side. I have yet to actually talk to him. I was sent to find you."

"What do you mean that you are on his side? Who are you?"

"My name is Kanka. Your grandfather is in grave danger. There is a ritual on this planet where we hunt like savages and your grandfather was deemed the one, and we must hunt him and kill him."

"What, that is horrible, we have to save him."

"We will, I will get him to his ship with your help. First I need you to deliver a message."

"Why should I trust you?"

"Well, for one thing you really don't have another choice; your grandfather will die if you don't do anything."

"Why do you want to help us?"

"Well, this ritual has been going on since before I was born, and at one point I took pleasure in killing the one, but as I have aged, I see that life is more precious than what I had known. I wish to rebel and change this way of life we have. Will you trust me?"

"I will. What do I have to do?"

"Tonight, after you are taken to your room with the Doctor, you must…"

After eating the Doctor and Susan were brought to a room with two beds and were told that they would be woken up for a ceremony the next day.

"Well, they seem to be nice people, wouldn't you agree, my dear Susan?"

"Oh, grandfather, it's horrible." Susan cried out.

"What is it, what is horrible?"

"They want to kill you, grandfather."

"What do you mean, explain my dear, slowly."

"Well, there is a ceremony tomorrow where you run for your life as hunters go after you and try to kill you."

"Really, then we must escape."

"No, we can't."

"Why is that?"

"Because Kanka will help us."

"Who is Kanka?"

"Kanka is someone who wants to stop the rituals. He told me where to hide from the Maro huntsmen and he will pick us up and take us to our ship."

"Well then we have no choice but to trust this man then. Try to get a good night's sleep, Susan, tomorrow will be a long day if what you say is true."

"Alright grandfather. Goodnight."

/

The next day The Doctor and Susan were woken up.

"Hello Avon, how may I help you?"

"It is time for the ceremony, Doctor."

"What does this ceremony consist of?"

"You must run for your life. You will be given a 10 minute head start, afterword's you will be hunted. Should you survive till nightfall, then you will be spared, given a feast and be sent on your way, or you can stay with us and be a hunter."

"I see."

"Would Susan like to join you?"

"Yes, I would."

"Alright, you have 10 minutes, go now."

The Doctor and Susan ran as far as they could until they found the hiding space Kanka showed Susan. There they waited until they saw a figure standing above them.

"I finally found you." The man yelled.
