Chapter 6: Rise of the Cybermen Part 1
A/N: Hello everyone I'm back sorry for the delay it's been really busy and I would have updated last night but had an English paper due at 11:59 although I turned it in way super early. I was too tired to type anything else last night….Plus Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was on and my mother wanted to watch Star Wars A New Hope. But I'm back and here is part one of today's adventure folks Allonsy!
Sam's POV
I just had a feeling today was the day that we would end up meeting Cybermen I woke up and got dressed and walked into the TARDIS console room. The Doctor was talking to Rose "Do you remember that weird munchkin lady with the eyes? Do you remember the way she looked at you? And then she opens her mouth and fire comes out!" Rose laughed and said "I thought I was going to get frazzled!" The Doctor said "Yeah, one minute, she's standing there, and the next—Rawr! Rawr!" Mickey asked "Yeah, Where was that? Then what happened?" The Doctor said "Oh, It was on this, um…Uh, Uh, planet thing, asteroid. It's a long story you had to be there. Um what are you doing that for?" Mickey was at the console he said "Cause you told me to." The Doctor asked "When was that?" Mickey said "About half an hour ago." The Doctor said as I walked behind him and Rose "Um…You can let go now." Mickey asked "Well how long's it been since I could've stopped?" The Doctor said "ten minutes, twenty? Twenty nine." Mickey said "You just forgot me!" The Doctor said "No! no! no! I was just-I was-I was calibrating- I was just- I know exactly what I'm doing." Then the explosion happened the whole TARDIS just shakes! We all get up and hang on to the console. Rose asked "What just happened!?" The Doctor said "The time vortex it's gone." Mickey said "That's impossible!" The Doctor said "It's just gone!" The Doctor yelled "Brace yourself! We're gonna crash!" we crashed and the Doctor asked "Everyone alright? Rose? Samantha? Mickey?" Mickey said "I'm fine I'm okay sorry yeah." The Doctor stood up as did Rose, Mickey, and I. The Doctor looked the TARDIS console and said "She's dead. The TARDIS is dead." Rose asked "You can fix it?" The Doctor said "There's nothing to fix. She's perished." He clicked some buttons but nothing happened. He continued "The last TARDIS in the universe—extinct." Rose was still trying to have hope for The Doctor's sake she said "We can get help, yeah?" The Doctor asked her "Where from?" Rose said "Well we've landed. We've got to be somewhere." I said "Rose, we fell out of the vortex, through the void into nothingness. We're in some sort of no-place." The Doctor said "The Silent Realm….The Lost dimension." Mickey was at the door and said smugly "Otherwise known as London." We all walked out and Mickey said "London, England, Earth. Hold on. he jumped down grabbed a newspaper and said "First of February this year, Not exactly far-flung is it?" The Doctor said "So this is London?" Mickey said "Yep!" The Doctor said "Your city?" Mickey said "That's the one." The Doctor was still curious on the matter he said "Just as we left it?" Mickey said "Bang on." The Doctor and I looked up at the sky and I said "And does that include the Zeppelins?" Rose and Mickey turned around and looked up. Mickey said "What the hell?" Rose said "That's beautiful." Mickey said "Okay it's London with a big international Zeppelin festival." The Doctor said to them "This is not your world." Mickey said "But the date's the same…It's parallel, right? Am I right? Like parallel Earth. Where they got Zeppelins. Am I right? I'm right aren't I?" I said "Must be." Rose said "So parallel Earth where…" Mickey said "Oh come on! You've seen it in films! Like an alternative to our world. Where everything's the same but just a little bit different. Like, I don't know…traffic lights are blue, Tony Blair never got elected…" Rose was looking at advertisement for soda and said "Where he's still alive. A parallel world and my dad's still alive." The Doctor said as she began to walk up to it "Don't look at it Rose, don't even think about it. This is not your world!" Rose said "He's my dad and…" The advertisement spoke like a video and said "Trust me on this." Rose had already touched it and said "Oh that's weird." The video of sorts continued Rose said "But's he's real." The video said again "Trust me on this." Rose said "He's a success! He was always planning these daft little schemes. Health-food drinks and stuff. Everyone said they were useless. But he did it." The Doctor got in front of Rose and grabbed her shoulders and said "Rose, if you ever trusted me, then listen to me now. Stop looking at it! Your father's dead! He died when you were sixth months old. That is not your Pete. That is A Pete. For all we know, he's got his own Jackie, his own Rose. His own daughter, who is someone else, but not you. You can't see him, not ever." The video kept repeating "Trust me on this." Rose stood there with a sad look on her face and looked the advertisement. The Doctor and I had walked back into the TARDIS. Mickey was comforting Rose when later he walked back in. The Doctor said "I told you to keep an eye on her!" Mickey said "She's fine." The Doctor said "She goes wandering off! Parallel world, It's like a Gingerbread house! All those temptations calling out." Mickey said "Oh, So it's just Rose then? Nothing out there to tempt me?" The Doctor said "Well, I don't know. I can't worry about everything. If I could just get this thing to…" he kicked it nothing happened though. Mickey asked "Did that help?" The Doctor said "Yes." Mickey asked "Did that hurt?" The Doctor sat down and said "Yes. Ow!" he held up his foot. I realized Rose by now might have wandered off. The Doctor was certainly frustrated with what has pasted can't blame him I'd be upset too because now possibly the only thing to get me home was dead.
Rose's POV
I walked around near the water and sat down on a bench. I looked up at all the Zeppelins. One began to pass over and it had a giant C on it. My cell phone was beeping I unzipped my jacket and pulled it out of the pocket. I looked at what popped up something about a free trial period and the news came up the caster said "And it's good news for Great Britain. As John Lumic returns to the country of his birth. Mr. Lumic, The inventor, of high-content metal, has denied allegations of ill health." The man I assumed was Lumic come up he said "We are all flesh and blood. But the brain is what makes us human. And my mind is more creative than ever." The newscaster came back up and said "With shares in Cybus industries doubling in price, Mr. Lumic…" I looked back up at the Zeppelin it was interfering with the signal I couldn't hear the rest of the report. Then I heard "In other words the Torchwood institute has published a study claiming that…" I began to type something in and the volume decreased on my phone.
Sam's POV
The Doctor, Mickey, and I were still in the TARDIS. The Doctor said "We're not meant to be here. The TARDIS draws its power from the universe. But it's the wrong universe. It's like diesel in a petrol engine." Mickey said "But…I've seen it in comics. People are hopping from one alternative world to the other. You see it's easy." The Doctor said "Not in the real world. Used to be easy. When the Time Lords kept their eyes on everything. You could pop between realties, home in time for tea. Then they died, and took it all with them. The walls of reality closed. The worlds were sealed. Everything became that bit less kind." Mickey asked "Than how did we get here?" The Doctor rubbed his eyes and shook his head and said "I don't know. Accident? Should've been impossible. Now we're trapped." The Doctor looked at a small green spark of light that was on the ground and said "What's that?" I looked in the direction of his attention. Mickey looked around and asked "What?" The Doctor got up and said "That, there is that a reflection?" The three of us got up and investigated The Doctor said "It's a light. Is it? Is that a light? I think that's a light. That's all we need. We've got power." We moved the metal grating and The Doctor said "Mickey and Samantha, we've got power! Ha!" The Doctor was so excited we have a chance to get out of here. The Doctor had jumped down and was removing pieces of tech and machinery and handing them up to Mickey and I. He said "It's alive!" Mickey asked "What is it?" The Doctor said "It's nothing. It's tiny. One of those insignificant little power cells. That no one ever bothers about its clinging to life. One little ounce of reality tucked away inside." Mickey asked "Enough to get us home?" The Doctor had reached it and said "Not yet. I need to charge it up." Mickey said "We can go outside and lash it up to the National grid." The Doctor said "Wrong sort of energy. It has to come from our universe." Mickey said 'But we don't have anything." The Doctor said There's me." Mickey looked at The Doctor confused and then The Doctor blew on that tiny piece of cell power. It began to glow brighter and The Doctor smiled so did I it was working! The Doctor said "I just gave away ten years of my life. Worth every second." He laughed some. Mickey asked "It's going out is that okay?" The Doctor said "It's on a recharging cycle. It'll loop round, power back up, and be ready to take us home in, ooh, twenty four hours?" he kissed it and Mickey said "So, that gives us twenty four hours in a parallel world." The Doctor said "Shore leave. As long as we keep our heads down. Easy, no problem." Let's go and tell her." The Doctor, Mickey and I found Rose. The Doctor said "There you are! You all right? No applause. I fixed it. Twenty four hours, then we're flying back to reality." We sat down by Rose who didn't seem very happy she looked more upset than anything else. The Doctor saw she had her phone out and asked "What is it?" Rose said "my phone connected. There's this…Cybus Network. It finds your phone. It gave me internet access." The Doctor said "Rose, whatever it says, this is the wrong world." Rose hesitated some and said "I don't exist." I asked "What do you mean?" she said "There's no Rose Tyler. I was never born. There's Pete, My dad and Jackie…he still married Mum, but they never had kids." The Doctor said as he tried to grab it "Give me that phone." He didn't get it Rose still had it in her grasp. Rose said "They're rich. They got a house and cars and everything they want. But they haven't got me." She got up and said "I've got to see him." The Doctor said "You can't." She said "I just want to see him." The Doctor said "I can't let you!" she said "You just said twenty four hours!" The Doctor said "You can't become their daughter! That's not the way it works! Mickey, tell her!" Mickey said "Twenty four hours yeah." He got up I thought oh no here we go again. The Doctor asked Mickey as Rose began to walk away "Where are you going!?" Mickey said "Well, I can do what I want." Rose said "I've got the address and everything." I stood by The Doctor on this one they shouldn't be wandering off. The Doctor said "Stay where you are, the both of you! Rose, come back here! Mickey, come back here right now!" Rose said "I just want to see him!" Mickey said "Yeah, I got things to see, and all." The Doctor said "Like what?!" Mickey said "Well, You don't know anything about me, Do you? It's always about Rose. I'm just a spare part." I tried to reason with Mickey tell him that's not the case but he wouldn't listen. Rose said to The Doctor "I'm sorry, I've got to go." Mickey said to the Doctor "Go on then. There's no choice, is there? You can only chase after one us. It's never gonna be me is it? You won't let Samantha try and come after me. You don't want her getting hurt or lost." Rose walked away and The Doctor said while pointing at Mickey "Back here, twenty four hours!" The Doctor and I ran to catch up with Rose. I could hear Mickey say "Yeah…If I haven't found something better." The Doctor obviously didn't hear Mickey say that we just kept running to try and catch up with Rose. We had managed to catch up to her we were walking down the street Rose said "Mickey's mother couldn't cope. His dad hung around for a while, But then he just sort of wandered off. He was brought up by his Gran. She was such a great woman. God, she used to slap him! And then s-she died- she tripped and fell down the stairs. It was about five years ago, now I was still in school." The Doctor said "I never knew." Rose said "You never asked." The Doctor said "You never said!" Rose said "That's Mickey. I suppose I—We just take him for granted. Do you think she's still alive, his gran?" The Doctor said "Could be. Like I said parallel world—Gingerbread house. We need to get out of here as fast as we can." Suddenly there was a beeping sound everywhere and everyone stopped walking except for us. Rose asked "What're they all doing?" The Doctor said "They've stopped." We walked around the people in surprise no one was moving or talking what was going on? The Doctor looked at a man in a suit and said "It's the ear pieces. Like Bluetooth attachments. But everyone's connected together." Rose's phone started to beep she pulled it out. She said "It's on my phone. It's automatic. Look, It's down loading. Is this what they're all getting?" The Doctor put his glasses on. Rose said "News, International news, sports, weather." The Doctor said "They get it direct, downloaded right into their heads." Rose kept listing "TV schedules, Lottery numbers." I said "Everyone shares the same information." The Doctor picked up her phone and said "Daily download published by Cybus industries." Everyone began to laugh okay that is way creepy! And then they all started to go back and do what they were doing before the download. The three of us stood there. The Doctor said "You lot are obsessed. You'd do anything for the latest upgrade." Rose said "Oi, not my lot. Different world remember?" The Doctor said "Not so far off your world. This place it's only parallel. Ooh, look at that Cybus Industries, owners of just about every company in Britain, Including Vitex. Mr. Pete Tyler's very well connected." Rose was smirking at The Doctor. He said "Okay, I give up. Let's go and see him." He tossed her the phone back and walked off.
