The metal figure moved mechanically through the large underground corridor. It halted then turned to its right before moving again. It ceased moving at the end of the corridor, having entered a large spherical chamber. In the centre, sat a woman wearing what appeared to be a battle armour, with the handles on the helmet resembling the handles on the head of the mechanical figure.
"Do you bring news?" She said, her voice cold.
"Yes." The Cyberman said "Our scouts report detection of The Doctor's TARDIS. He is here."
"Oh, excellent." She said, smiling lightly "Now we can make him pay for trapping us. He thought we would be disintegrated harmlessly, oh how wrong he was."
"What is your command?" The Cyberman asked, it's mechanical tone unwavering.
"Find the Doctor." She said "And delete him!"
The Doctor walked down the street, with Amy just about keeping pace. He had been power walking half of the time they had been walking since leaving the police station. She was beginning to tire out and he, apparently, was not.
"Doctor, stop." She said, finally stopping herself and looking at his almost patronising expression "Some of us are Human you know."
"You say that like you think it makes you weaker than me." He said to her, leaning up against a wall "On the contrary, you're all brilliant. There are days I envy you."
"Really?" She said, looking dumbfounded but her tone sarcastic "I never would've guessed that by the outfit."
"Oh, you mean this old thing?" He said, realising he was still wearing his previous incarnation's suit "I just haven't had time to change yet. Must find some time to do that."
"Right..." She said "Anyway, tell me, what kind of thing did you have go on with that guy, the Master?"
"Nothing like what you're thinking." He said, noting the inquisitive tone "He and I used to be friends, a long time ago, lifetimes, actually."
"What happened?" She asked.
"Don't worry." He said "The point is, he's gone now. They all are."
"Who are?" Amy said, confused.
"The time lords." He replied coldly "I mean, they've been dead for a long time. But they came back. And now they're dead, all over again."
"What do you mean?" She asked him "How can they be dead all over again?"
The Doctor moved away from the wall, patting down his backside to get the dust off it. He ran his fingers through his long black fringe and hair, before looking at her.
"Don't worry about it." He said "Let's go."
They walked off, not noticing the woman with a Bluetooth headset following them.
After about 20 minutes, the Doctor turned down a corner suddenly, pulling Amy with him. He pulled her to him and kissed her, watching the woman walk by before letting her go.
"How dare you!" She said, slapping him round the face "Now, do that again..."
"Sorry, and owww." He said, rubbing his face "I just noticed that woman was following us."
"And?" She asked, still half hoping he would kiss her again.
"And she was wearing a earpiece." The Doctor replied "It's a technique I've seen the Cybermen use to control people before. Well, not exactly control them, more like partly convert them so they're completely submissive to the Cybermen. Makes it easier when they're going to be properly converted."
"Oh, very good." A voice said from behind them.
The Doctor and Amy turned around to see a man. He wore an earpiece as well.
"I'm taking it by the earpiece you work for the Cybermen." The Doctor said to the man, putting his hands in his pockets.
"And I'm taking it by that statement that you're the one we're looking for." The man said "Now, Doctor, are you going to come with me or am I going to have to get my friends to force you to come."
"I only have one thing to say." The Doctor said, pulling his hands out of his pockets and grabbing Amy's hand, spinning himself and her around before saying "Amy, run for your life!"
The pair sprinted off, away from the man, who simply stood there. Amy looked back, seeing he was not giving chase. She began to slow up, with the Doctor looking back and almost pulling her along, before the metal arm clothes lined the pair of them.
