Chapter 6 new earth part 1
Me, Rose, Rachel, Jackie and Mickey and the others are outside the TARDIS with me, Rose and Rachel packed and ready to go.
"Have you got everything?" Jackie asks us slightly worried
"We've got everything, don't worry." rose reassure her
"and if not we can always pop back and get what we need" Rachel told her
I turned to the others, and asked Bethany
"you did tell UNIT were me and Raich are didn't you, just so they know and tell jack it would help also…" I trailed off when I notes' the were smiling amused
"we did everything that you told us, Ashley so quit worrying and go do what you've always dreamed of." Bethany tells me with a smile
"don't worry I will, phone jack when I get back, now be careful you know what episode this is" Dan tells me seriously but quietly enough that rose and aunt Jackie don't hear him.
I just nod and turn to my aunt.
"Be careful." she pleads
We all take turns to hug.
"You got to call Mo about that-" rose tells her mom
"Oh, never mind Mo…" Louise tells her "now scat before we make you stay" she teases
"Okay, I'm going now. I love you!" rose tells her "love you aunt Jackie"
Me and rose kiss her on the cheek.
"I love you. Both of you" she told us sincerely
"Love you, love you…" she tells aunt Jackie then Mickey and kisses him goodbye.
"Love you." he says and me, rose and Rachel give him a hug
"Bye." me Rachel and rose tell them and then we all go to the TARDIS. I had a bounce in my step and a massive smile on my face.
I went in first then Rachel and lastly rose. When Rose closes the door behind her shrugs the rucksack off from her shoulders and puts it next to ours. The Doctor notices us and we beam at each other. When ready The Doctor pulls a lever with I notes, extra vigour.
The Doctor and Rose are both operating the controls. And me and Rachel are holding on to the console but the doctor is telling us what to press.
"So, where are we going?"
"I thought we were going to the one on the right?" Rachel asks him
"Nah I've changed my mind" he told us and turns towards rose "Further than we've ever gone before." he told her and then grins at us
we grin back.
We step out of the TARDIS onto a windy stretch of grass. When I looks around us my mouth drops open in awe, And so dose the girls.
"It's the year five billion and twenty three... we're in the galaxy M87, and this... this is New Earth." the doctor starts to explain to us as we look upon the futuristic city there are flying vehicles zooming to and fro.
"That's just... that's-" rose try's to get out
She bursts out laughing, in wonder. Making us two also laugh
"Not bad. Not bad at all!" the doctor rate's the city nodding
"That's amazing. I'll never get used to this. Never. Different ground beneath my feet!"
Us three jump up and down excitedly.
"Different sky...! What's that smell?" I shout out
The Doctor bends down and pulls some grass up. He shows it to us grinning.
"Apple grass." he explains
"Apple grass...!" I say in wonder
"Yeah, yeah!" the doctor confirms
"That's beautiful!" rose tells him and gazes up at the Doctor with a wide smile.
"Oh, I love this. Can I just say…" She links her arm through his.
"... travelling with you... I love it." she told him smiling happy and me and Rachel nod in agreement.
"Me too." the doctor replies to us three, we laugh and the Doctor grins.
"Come on!" suddenly says and He grabs mine and roses hands, and I grab Rachel and we dash off.
The doctor puts his trench coat on the ground and I put down mine. They sit down, but as I sit down I discreetly look behind me to see one of the metal spiders that was seen in 'The End of the World' as it scurries closer to where me, Rachel, the Doctor and Rose lie sprawled on the grass. I lie down next to the doctor egger to listen to him explain.
"So, the year five billion - the sun expands, the Earth gets roasted." the doctor continues
"That was our first date." rose told us smiling
"We had chips!" he added leaning back to look at her
We giggle.
"So anyway, planet gone, all rocks and dust, but the human race lives on, spread out across the stars. Soon as the Earth burns up - oh, yeah, they get all nostalgic - big revival movement... but find this place!" He sits up for a better look at the view.
"Same size as the Earth... same air... same orbit... lovely! Call goes out, the humans move in!" he concludes
"What's the city called?" rose asks him
"New New York." he told her with a smile
"Oh, come on." rose said sceptically
"It is! It's the City of New York!" he told us trying to get us to believe him and He pauses, thinking.
"Strictly speaking, it's the fifteenth New York since the original. So that makes it New New New New New New New New New New New New New New York." he adds and I start to laugh ' how nice it is to laugh rather than cry at least I wont have be crying today'
We all smiles down at him, reminiscing. And He notices.
"What?" he asks us
"You're so different." rose explained to him
"New New Doctor." he tells us and we giggle and the Doctor chuckles. I can feel The metal spider watching us. And I hear The spider scurries across the grass.
"Can we go and visit New New York - so good they named it twice?" rose asks getting up
"Well - I thought we might go there first." the doctor answers also getting up we followed getting up as He nods towards a large building in the distance, on the coast.
"Why? What is it?" rose asks curiously as I put my coat on, the doctor also dose but he has trouble getting his coat on because of the wind, so Rose helps him.
"Some sort of hospital. Green moon on the side - that's the universal symbol for hospitals." he explained
"Hmm!" we all hum in curiosity
"I got this." he say as he pulls out his psychic paper.
"A message on the psychic paper." and The words 'Ward 26 - Please Come' scrawl across the paper.
"Someone wants to see me." and he tucks it back in his pocket.
"Hmm! And I thought we were just sight-seeing. Come on then! Let's go and buy some grapes." She links her arm through his. And I notice The spider is following us but don't show any sign that I can see it. Me, Rose, Rachel and the Doctor walk through the hospital doors and into the reception.
And the doctor is expressing his hatred for hospitals
"Bit rich coming from you." I scoff at him
"I can't help it! I don't like hospitals - they give me the creeps!" he try's to defend himself I just laugh at him. I look up when I hear the PA announce
"The Pleasure Gardens will now take visitors carrying green or blue identification cards for the next fifteen minutes. Visitors are reminded that cuttings from the gardens are not permitted."
"Very smart. Not exactly NHS." rose states and I had to agree with her.
"No shop. I like the little shop!" the doctor says sadly and surprisingly Rachel nods in agreement
"I thought this far in the future, they'd have cured everything." rose says surprised
"The human race moves on, but so do the viruses. It's an ongoing war." the doctor explains sadly. A cat nurse walks by and nods politely to Rose, who stares at her. And I nudge her gently to make her stop.
"They're cats." she points at the obvious
"Now, don't stare... think what you look like to them, all…" He looks her up and down.
"Pink and yellow. That's where I'd put the shop!" he continues like he never said anything and he points over Rose's shoulder.
"Right there!" Whilst me, Rose is looking, he and Rachel walk over to the lift and steps inside. This was what we planed she goes with the doctor I keep an eye on rose.
"Ward 26, thanks!" we hear the doctor call out
"Hold on! Hold on!" we rush to the lift, but it was too late the doors had closed.
"Oh, too late - I'm going up." he calls down
"It's all right, there's another lift." we rush to the other lift and presses the button.
"Ward 26. And watch out for the disinfectant." we hear him faintly calling but miss the last bit.
"Watch out for what?" the rose calls up to him
"The disinfectant!" Rachel now trys
"The what?" I shout to her
"di- oh, you'll find out." he says giving up
Me and Rose steps into the lift.
"Um... Ward 26. Thanks…" she says awquadly
The doors close and I feel were going down.
"Commence stage one - disinfection." I hear the speakers tell us
Me and Rose are also soaked in the disinfectant. She screams and I smirk staying calm and put my hand through my hair, thankful that I wont need a shower now.
But Rose smacks the walls frantically trying to turn the shower off with her eyes screwed shut im still silently laughing
white powder is puffed onto Rose and me. She squeezes her eyes shut, looking shocked and a bit disgusted. I don't really care, turn towards her and grin
After the initial shock, Rose tries to tidy her hair in the gusts of wind from the blow-dryer. And I smile at her and try to make my hair presentable
Me and Rose steps out at what seems to be some sort of cellar. She is still pulling at her hair, which is looking quite neat. I turn to the corridor and see a white man with some sort of design and I started to get worried 'I hope nothing major is changed because in here with her…'
"The Human children are clean." he says to us
"Um... I'm looking for Ward 26...?" she says confused
"This way, Rose Tyler." he says scaring us by knowing my cousins name, He scurries off. And me and Rose follows him apprehensively. She picks up a metal rod just in case and keeps me protectively her. We emerge from the corridor into a room where an old tape is playing. We curiously looks at the flickering image being projected onto the screen. It is a glamorous party scene, everyone present laughing and holding champagne. A woman I recognise is there, talking to everyone .
"I mean, you never know what your life's going to be like! Ever! I'm bored with this drink." says the woman but I cant put my finger on it I stand a little closer to the screen with rose behind me
The woman hands her drink away to someone.
"Anyway- oh, hello darling! Now, don't! Stop it!" She pushes a man playfully in the chest.
"Wait a minute... that's…" rose says recognising the voice and I at that moment also remember. We spin around, and there she is Cassandra O'Brian Dot Delta Seventeen and The man cowering beside her.
"Peek-a-boo!" she calls out
"Don't you come anywhere near me, Cassandra." Rose demands holding up the metal rod threatenly
"Why? What do you think I'm going to do? Flap you to death?" Cassandra asks sarcastically
"Yeah, but... what about Gollum?" She asks gesturing to Chip.
"Oh... that's just Chip. He's my pet." Cassandra explains
"I worship the mistress!" he told us passionately
"Moisturize me, moisturize me…" she begs him and Chip picks up a canister and squirts Cassandra with it.
"He's not even a proper life-form. He's a force-grown clone. I modelled him on my favourite pattern. But he's so faithful. Chip sees to my physical needs."
"I really hope that means food." I tell rose and she asks Cassandra
"How comes you're still alive?" curiously
"After you murdered me." Cassandra accused Rose
"That was your own fault." rose stated
"The brain of my mistress survived. And her pretty blue eyes were salvaged from the bin." Chip told us and Cassandra looks flattered.
"What about the skin? I saw it, you-" She laughs in disbelief.
"You got ripped apart."
"That piece of skin was taken from the front of my body. This piece is the back."
"Right! So you're talking out of your—" I told her laughing and rose joined in
"Ask not." Cassandra told me sharply
"The mistress was lucky to survive. Chip secreted mi'lady into the hospital." chip admitted to us
"So they don't know you're here?" I asked them in shock
"Chip steals medicine. Helps mi'lady. Soothes her. Strokes her…" he says in a loving way and as He raises a hand to stroke Cassandra rose tells him sharply
"You can stop right there, Chip."
"But I'm so alone, hidden down here... the last Human in existence…" she told us sadly and we scoffed
"Don't start that again - they've called this planet New Earth!" rose shouted annoyed
"A vegetable patch." Cassandra accused
"And there's millions of Humans out there... millions of them." I told her
"Mutant stock!" she shouted at me
"They evolved, Cassandra. They just evolved, like they should. You stayed still. You got yourself all pickled and preserved, and what good did it do you?" rose explained to her
"Oh, I remember that night. Drinks for the Ambassador of Thrace. That was the last time anyone told me I was beautiful. After that it all became... such hard work." Cassandra complained
"Well, you've got a knack for survival - I'll give you that." rose mused out loud
"But I've not been idle, Rose... tucked away, underneath this hospital - I've been listening. The Sisters are hiding something." Cassandra said secretively
"What d'you mean?" rose asked curiously
"Oh... these cats have secrets. Hush, let me whisper. Come close." she asked us
You must be joking if you think I'm coming anywhere near you!" rose said laughing
we take a few steps backwards and rose is caught by a machine that binds her with light so she cannot move. I also am caught in a machine like that but under the other arch.
"Chip! Activate the psychograft!" Cassandra demands and he bounds over to the controls.
"I can't move! Cassandra, let me go!" rose shouts scared and we look at each other worried, Chip pulls a lever and bars of light come down from the ceiling and surround Rose like a cage.
"What're you doing? Let us go!" I demand Cassandra still scared
"The lady's moving on. It's goodbye trampoline, and hello Blondie!" Cassandra shouts in victory. After a few seconds, a cloud of light jumps from Cassandra, across the room and into Rose. Chip releases the lever and Rose's body falls to the ground. But im still bound in the machine holding me back from saving rose.
"Mistress?" Chip asks peering at her
"Moisturize me…" Cassandra/rose said while beginning to stir and Chip hurries to retrieve the canister.
How bizarre... arms... fingers... hair! Let me see! Let me see!" she exclaims and She springs to her feet and dashes to a mirror. Her eyes widen in horror.
Oh my God. I'm a chav! She exclaims horrified
"ha!" I exclaimed and she turns to me like she only remembered I was there "Rose is not a chav! She is not, was not, will not EVER be a chav!" I shout annoyed that she called my cousin a chav
She just frowns in thought at me and asks herself
"Hmm… now what to do with you? Oh I know!" I get slightly worried when I see her eyes light up evilly
"chip bring out the control probe and ring." she smiles mischievously at me as chip goes to a little cupboard and brings back some thing that looks like a metal button and a green ring, she comes up to me and slips her hand to the back of my neck and puts the metal button on the bottom of my neck, I gasp in pain as the metal claws dig into my skin and I stiffen like I have NO control over my body yet only my mind. She put the small green ring onto her right middle finger and tells chip.
"release her" and he pull another leaver and my arms fall down yet I cant feel them its like in a robot suit/vehicle yet im not driving. She stand a little way away and says
"stand hear" and points at the floor next to her, then the most strangest and uncomfortable thing happened my body started to move naturally - not robot like - to were she pointed.
Cassandra turned to stand in front of the mirror looking at Rose's body again absolutely horrified. But now I couldn't say any thing but that didn't mean I wont think!
"Look at me! From class to brass! Although…" She exclaims frantically
'Ha! You never were class!" I was facing the mirror as well and even tho I couldn't move my body I noticed you could still see the emotions in my eyes I tried different one, anger, my eyes squinted a little, sadness, my eye relaxed, fright, my eyes widened. Yes! That the best way to tell the doctor that your in trouble - the emotions in your eyes!
She pulls the zipper of Rose's jacket down slightly and runs her hands over her body. 'ugh! Stop it!'
"Oh... curves... oh, baby…" She bounces up and down, Chip following suit. ' I really wish I could close my eye right now and I did 'whoa I still control my eye! Yay!"
"It's like living inside a bouncy castle!" I heard her exclaimed delighted
"Mistress is beautiful!" chip declared I opened my eyes 'yes, because rose is'
"Absolutement! Oh, but look…" she looks at her old frame, which is empty. And my body also unwillingly turns to look. 'help me! Please!"
"Oh...! The brain lead expired... my old mistress is gone." Chip said in sad surprise
"But safe and sound in here." Cassandra taps roses head.
"What of the Rose child's mind?" chip asked interested
"Oh... tucked away... I can just about access the surface memory, there…" She pauses to think.
"Gosh... there with the Doctor and a friend... a man... he's the Doctor... the same Doctor with a new face! That hypocrite! I must get the name of his surgeon.
She turns on her heel to look at me and says
"and you're her cousin" she states smiling and then turns to look in the mirror again.
"I could do with a little work. Although…" she says looking at roses body 'Don't you DARE!' I shouted in my head. She runs her hand over Rose's bum.
"Nice rear bumper. Hmm!" She smiles. Rose's mobile rings. I mentally smile ' Doctor!'
"Oh... it seems to be ringing... is it meant to ring?" I mentally roll my eyes so she doesn't know I have control over them. 'duh' She pulls Rose's phone out of her back pocket and stares at it.
"A primitive communications device." chip explained to her and Cassandra presses a button and the Doctor's voice is on the other end.
"Rose, where are you and Ashley?" he asks what he thinks is rose
"How does she speak? She asks whispering while placing the phone to her ear
Old Earth Cockney. Chip whispered back
CASSANDRA/ROSE
"Uhm... wotcha... She's… with me…" she answers
"Where've you and ash been? How long does it take to get to Ward 26?" he asks curiously
"were on our way, governor." Cassandra tells him over the phone in a forced voice.
"we shall proceed up the Apples and Pears."
"You'll never guess. I'm with the Face of Boe! Remember him?" he asks her
"Course I do... that big old... boat... Race…" she laughs, through gritted teeth and I laugh at her.
"I'd better go. See you in a minute. And tell Ashley Rachel's worried." and he hangs up the phone.
"This Doctor man is dangerous." chip says turning to her and Cassandra/Rose flicks her hair back and then fixes herself up in the mirror.
"Dangerous and clever. I might need a mind like his. The Sisterhood is up to something. Remember that Old Earth saying...? Never trust a Nun. Never trust a Nurse. And never trust a cat. Perfume?" she says and Chip takes a small tube of perfume out of his pocket and gives it to her. She pushes it down her cleavage then strides out of the room with purpose. With me following like I do have control over my body, its almost like im copying her movements when I walk, but not…
Me and Cassandra/Rose finally emerges onto Ward 26 and she was still smoothing down her hair. Sadly the probe was waterproof and is under my clothes. She spots Rachel and the Doctor examining various drips, he had his glasses on. She smiles when he notices use. He may have missed the blank look on my face but Rachel didn't.
"There you two are! Come and look at this patient!" He takes our arms and shows us a patient whose skin is completely red.
"Marconi's Disease" he tells us taking his glasses off "Should take years to recover. Two days. I've never seen anything like it - they've invented a cell washing cascade - it's amazing. Their medical science is way advanced. And this one!" He leads us to another bed sporting a man who is completely white.
"Pallidome Pancrosis. Kills you in ten minutes, and he's fine!" He waves cheerily to the patient.
"I need to find a terminal. I've got to see how they do this" and we walk off
"Because if they've got the best medicine in the world... then why's it such a secret?" he asks confused 'ugh like she said never trust a nun, nurse, or cat' I tell him mentally and make my eyes pleading
"I can't Adam and Eve it." Cassandra says when stopping
"What's- what's with the voice?" the doctor asks confused and looks at me sideways, his eyes widen very briefly when he sees my blank face but with frightened pleading eyes.
Oh, I don't know... just larking about New Earth... New me…" She says looking up at him. She then looks him up and down and he finally seems to notice that most of the buttons on her shirt are undone.
"Well, I can talk. New New Doctor." He grins. At us but when he looks at me they din a little in a way I understood that he will work it out, he turned back to Cassandra.
"Mmm... aren't you just…" and She very suddenly pulls his face towards her and plants a smacking kiss on his lips. When she finally pulls away, he looks extremely shocked and she's slightly breathless. My eyes widen and he stares at her.
"T... terminal's this way." she told him breathlessly
She walks off, exhaling slightly. And my body without permission walks of after her, He watches us go looking extremely dazed and tousled.
"Yep... still got it…" I hear him say in a high-pitched voice
He follows us, smoothing his hair down.
The Doctor Rachel me and Cassandra/Rose are looking at details of the hospital on a screen.
"Nope... nothing odd... surgery... post-op... nano-dentistry... no sign of a shop... they should have a shop." he complained slightly
"No, it's missing something else. When I was downstairs, those Nurse/Cat/Nuns were talking about Intensive Care. Where is it...?" Cassandra tells him
"You're right, well done." the doctor says getting slightly suspicious but not showing it.
"Why would they hide a whole department?" she asks no one and The Doctor takes his sonic screwdriver out of his pocket.
"It's gotta be there somewhere. Search the sub-frame." she told him
"What if the sub-frame's locked?" the doctor says now defiantly suspicious
"Try the installation protocol…" Cassandra said In a very 'duh' sort of way
"Yeah, course. Sorry. Hold on." He started scanning screen
He clicks his sonic screwdriver off and the entire wall moves downwards, revealing a secret corridor behind. Cassandra/Rose smiles and walks straight into it with me on her heel. The Doctor follows, knowing something isn't quite right about her and me.
"Intensive Care. Certainly looks intensive."
The Doctor, Rachel, me and Cassandra/Rose go down metal steps into Intensive Care. They find themselves in the huge cavernous chamber, looking upon row and row of green doors. The Doctor walks along one of the rows and opens a door with his sonic screwdriver. There sat a man, covered in boils and surrounded by smoke the man looks back at us.
"That's disgusting. What's wrong with him?" said Cassandra sounding unsympathetic, Rachel fround, she had notes' I had not said a word yet and that was very NOT me.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." the doctor said to the man, horrified
Cassandra/Rose holds her nose with her ringed hand and I find my hand doing the same to me I move my eyes from Rachel to my hand trying to tell her that its not me and I have no control, whilst the Doctor closes the door gently. He opens another.
"What disease is that?" She asks while looking at the woman inside, I was now glad that I control over my eyes as tears slipped from them.
"All of them. Every single disease in the galaxy, they've been infected with everything." he told us quietly, disgusted at what some one could do.
"What about us? Are we safe?" Cassandra asks worried
"The air's sterile. Just don't touch them." the doctor warns us and he shuts the door and then leans over the railing, looking upon the rows of doors. Cassandra/Rose and I follow (for me reluctantly). Rachel stood on the other side of the doctor.
"How many patients are there?" Cassandra asks
"They're not patients." the doctor says woefully
"But they're sick." Cassandra says surprised
"They were born sick. They're meant to be sick. They exist to be sick. Lab rats. No wonder the Sisters have got a cure for everything. They've built the ultimate research laboratory. A Human farm." the doctor rants angrily
"Why don't they just die?" Cassandra asks him
"Plague carriers. The last to go." the doctor says still mad
"It's for the greater cause." Novice hame said quietly appearing at the end of the row
"Novice Hame. When you took your vows, did you agree to this?"
"The Sisterhood has sworn to help." the cat tried to explain
"What, by killing?" The doctor had started shouting
"But they're not real people. They're specially grown. They have no proper existence." Novice hame explained gently
"What's the turnover? Hm? Thousand a day? Thousand the next? Thousand the next? How many thousand? For how many years? How many?" The doctor shouted advancing dangerously towards her
"Mankind needed us. They came to this planet with so many illnesses. We couldn't cope. We did try. We tried everything. We tried using clone-meat and bio-cattle... but the results were too slow. So the sisterhood grew its own flesh. That's all they are. Flesh." the cat tried to explain again.
"These people are alive." he told her
"But think of those Humans out there... healthy... and happy, because of us." she said smiling slightly happily
"If they live because of this, then life is worthless." the doctor said firmly
"But who are you to decide that?" the cat demanded
"I'm the Doctor. And if you don't like it... if you want to take it to a higher authority, then there isn't one. It stops with me." The doctor said stepping forwards
Just to confirm... none of the Humans in the city actually know about this? Cassandra asked peering over the Doctor's shoulder
"We thought it best not-" hame explained
"Hold on. I can understand the bodies. I can understand your vows. But one thing I can't understand - what have you done to Rose and Ashley?" he asked angry
R&R please and dont worry when im doing a episode i do it all and then i separate it into 2 parts. if you've looked at my other FanFics ive got to say sorry but i dont think in continuing any time soon. but this one is lucky as it has transcrips and they help XD
