Hey y'all! I got that plot I was promising! So I'm goin to set this up a bit like the sereis is. Where ther's that big long story arc, with all those single episode long filler things, except my small arcs are gonna be longer, and somehow relate to the bigger arc. It'll all come together you'll see. So I'm a bit iffy about my DOrian so let me know what you think.
Jenny:PW would like to remind everybody that she doesn't own Doctor Who or any of the aliens, planets or characters extracted from the show
"nice to meet you then Jenny."
Ch4
The Master looked around the dimly lit room, it was just as he remembered it. The beaded entry to the bustling warehouse. The small ornate trick table, in the middle of the room. The table, as always was seated with two chairs, one comfortable, and cushioned, the other stiff, but elegant. The cushioned chair, as he'd expected was taken up, by a rather fat, blue man. The blue man was robed in elegant colorful silk cloth, and he wore a spattering of various jewelry, all very colorful, and very expensive. the blue man had a welcoming smile, but when recognition of the man standing before him it changed to a serious business like mask.
"Master, It's been a while." The man began, waving a hand for the Master to be seated.
He didn't sit. "Dorian. You haven't changed."
Dorian sat back at the comment, "Actually, you'll find I have."
The Master topped examining the room, and began to examine Dorian, "How so?"
A small smile, "Do you know the woman, who just left?"
He though about that, he hadn't been particularly interested in her. He still had noticed, she had been wearing a roman style white dress, and had wild curly blond hair. She walked with an assurance of herself, that meant she was packing weight. Though, all he'd seen was the multi-purpose blaster, and a portable computer. She seemed slightly familiar, though he couldn't place how. He remembered her being called "Miss. Song". That didn't fit though. Then again Jenny's name hadn't rang any bells either.
"Not particularly." the Master gave in.
A soft chuckle "well, she'll succeed in doing what you've tried for a thousand years to do."
There was only one thing he'd been trying for that long, "what is that exactly?"
Another smile from Dorian, "I don't give anything away for free."
"I only have enough money for the ship, I need from you. But I have something better." He put his hands on the table, and leaned towards the blue merchant.
Dorian leaned in. "well?"
THe Master smiled, and sat down "I came here with a young girl." he began.
Dorian caught on to that, The Master always traveled alone.
"her name is Jenny. No last name just Jenny. She's looking for her father..."
Dorian waited, but when the Master didn't finish he bit, "I'll tell you about River Song, If you tell me who this Jenny's father is."
The master smirked, "He goes by The Doctor."
Dorian froze, his face froze completely "Oh, you couldn't have."
"I didn't do anything, but offer to help out, a poor injured girl who's ship had just crashed onto a planet filled with hostile aliens." The Master said innocently.
"Anyone else, and I'd write them up for dead." Dorian shook his head, "You're still treading on a mine field, Master."
"Be that as it may. What about this River Song?"
"ah, back to business then. well, it's common knowledge around these parts. But..." Dorian hesitated, but it was too late to go back, "She kills The Doctor."
That shocked The Master. He had been expecting it, but hearing it was another matter entirely. He suddenly realized that he'd left Jenny out there with her. Jenny'd probably end up giving something away, and then this river Song may use her. No one uses the Master's pawns. No One! He scrambled to get up.
"Calm down. She wouldn't exploit the girl even if she knew who it was." Dorian said calmly.
the Master looked at Dorian in confusion.
The fat man laughed, "I guess I can tell you. River doesn't know that she kills him. The silence get her to do it."
The Silence? The Master was reminded of the ringing silence in his head, but no. That couldn't be it. He though hard, but couldn't come up with any matches. He'd never even heard whispers of The Silence. This was something new. An evil organization he didn't know about, one that undoubtedly would try to get in his way. He didn't like not knowing not one bit.
"I'd tell you Master, but their good clients of mine. But I can tell you why you've never heard of them before. I did some research." here Dorian leans forward. "They only appear after you attempted to open the time lock."
The Master thought about that. He wasn't surprised Dorian knew about that. Even if it technically had happen millions of years ago. The Silence though had to be something to create a balance. A balance he had upset in the world. If he though of it that way, he was still responsible for The Doctor's death. Which made him feel a bit better. Only a bit.
"So..., The Silence can exist, because Galifry doesn't." The Master asked curiously.
"Were the Time Lord's the only ones you were freeing?" Dorian asked pointedly.
The Master sat back, He wasn't entirely sure what exactly they'd been fighting during the Time War. He'd run away the minute he sensed things had gone too far. He remembered names though, the Daleks, The cybermen all the old enemies. There was another though, one that made him shiver from the though The Nightmare Child. Yet, the council had planned the whole scheme, they should've thought of all that. when the Doctor's words flew back into his head he shook them away. Desperate not to let him be right.
"As I thought." Dorian watched evenly, "It is of no consequence to me. They are very good customers of mine."
"Figures." the Master grumbled under his breath.
Dorian ignored the comment "Now about that ship..."
"Wow!" Jenny stared in awe at the black market around her.
River watched the girl with a smile, "I know exhilarating isn't it."
The younger blond could only nod. She had never seen anything like this before in her life. The colors, the people the smells. It was s hard just to take it all in. River gave her a second, before leading the girl onwards. JUlie followed dutifully, her eyes going everywhere. Her Time Lady brain working overtime, trying to notice every little insignificant detail of the place. River was highly amused by the younger girl, and was more focused on her rather then their surroundings.
So, it was no wonder neither of them noticed the small group of men following them through the market.
I was originally gonna put more in that bit at the end but I decided that I couldn't rush into things, so the excitment and running begins next chapter! So please review! I'm willing to use any of the ideas you guys have but you've got to review first!
