Chapter Six

I win.

That was the last thing he said to Theta while lying in his arms then closed his eyes. He did feel Theta rocking him as his mind drifted inside the ring he designed to store his mind and laughed. Here was his best enemy, or was that best friend, crying like some infant and it made him both sick and proud that he brought him to tears.

All Lucy had to do was retrieve the ring after his funeral pyre and take it to the lab he constructed in Denver. After his rebirth, Harry Saxon was going to go on television and explain that he and Lucy had been captives of the Master, who had his face altered to look like him. He would blame Theta for everything that had happened then ask the world governments to ban Theta from Earth with shoot to kill orders if he ever set foot on Earth again. Using hair, bone, skin and blood samples he smuggled off the Valiant, he used them to clone himself a new body but what he didn't plan on was Lucy finding Theta.

When Lucy had explained that she had been scanning for Theta's TARDIS, not only did she find it but she found a badly injured Theta as well. He was stunned that she saved Theta's life instead of letting him regenerate but the idea of a helpless Theta filled his mind with all sorts of ideas. Another thing he didn't expect was finding a willing lackey in a nineteen year old genius. Cameron had not only recreated his finest achievement but captured Theta's Jack and dissected him, putting his body parts in jars. He saw a lot of himself in Cameron and fancied him as a lover.

What he didn't count on was the arrival of Theta's clone and a copy of Theta from another dimension. This "Doctor" was just as annoying as Theta but he had one thing that Theta didn't have. He had a family and they helped free Theta, something he would never forgive. What made things worse was the wife of Theta's clone was hiding a surprise. She was the vessel for the Bad Wolf. He had heard of this mystical creature but he never thought he would actually meet it let alone be defeated by it.

But, like always, he had a backup plan.

Just before the Bad Wolf destroyed his body, he activated the ring and his mind became trapped in the ring once again. Hoshi, a little playmate from his past, took the ring and Cameron and hid them somewhere Theta could never find them. What he never figured on was Cameron placing the ring on his finger, allowing his mind to enter Cameron's mind. It was a tight fit but he was able to take over Cameron's mind and was surprised that Cameron's lover, Duncan, didn't notice the difference. For ten years, he lived as Cameron but, little by little, Cameron fought for control until the day he found the perfect prison for him. Looking into the mirror, he forced Cameron's mind out of his mind and into the reflection. The downside to doing that was he now had Cameron acting like his bloody conscious. The other problem was Cameron was mortal. His body was aging and he knew it was only a matter of time before the body would fail and he would die. The idea of dying never bothered him. He had died quite a few times in the past but he didn't have the ring anymore. Duncan had stole the ring and sold it. He died before he could find out who he sold it to which meant he had no way of storing his mind in the event of his death. He was about to sink into depression when someone came and offered him an alternative to dying.

Hoshi had been hiding from her kitsune in The Nolands ever since she had betrayed Theta and the Doctor and she offered to hide him there until they could find an alternative to his need for either an immortal body or an artificial one. The idea of spending the rest of eternity in an artificial body wasn't the perfect solution but if it assured his survival then he would do it. He agreed on the condition that she would help him find Theta and the Doctor and she told him that she would be able to find them. But, upon arrival to The Nolands, he discovered that Cameron had come with them, which annoyed the bloody hell out of him.

"This is totally unacceptable," the Master whispered when he tossed the brandy snifter at the wall and it shattered, pieces of glass falling to the carpet.

"I couldn't agree more. You'd think she'd take you to them by now," a voice said as he looked at the gold framed mirror and Cameron leaned against the frame.

"I was talking about being stuck with YOU!"

"Hey, do you think it's a picnic for me?! I'm the one playing Magic Mirror to your Lord What's His Name from Shrek!"

The Master growled when Cameron locked eyes with him and the Master gasped. He heard the low ripping sound of the zipper as his pants and underwear slid down his hips and fell to the floor. He grabbed hold of the top of the chair behind him as Cameron smiled and wiggled his fingers. The Master didn't know how he could do what he was doing but he didn't care and smiled. His body jolted against the chair while long fingers stroked his cock and he moaned when they squeezed his balls.

"Want me to stop?" Cameron asked as the Master shook his head and gulped, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down. The Master rolled his eyes into his head when the cool lips touched the tip of his cock then moaned as something rough scraped along the tip. "Imagine what this would feel like in person."

"Koschei-san, we need to…" Hoshi said as she walked inside the room then stopped near the table. Roaring, the Master turned then tried to run at her but he tripped over his pants and crashed in a heap to the floor. Seeing the anger in his eyes, she ran out of the room as she closed the door and he rolled onto his bottom, looking at the mirror.

"She really needs to learn how to knock before coming into a man's bedroom," Cameron said when he walked away and the Master slid onto the floor, breathing hard through his nose.

"Yrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Here comes Captain Storm, ace space jock!" Adam said as he plopped David onto the couch and David giggled. He was wearing his Danger Mouse pajamas and Adam sat down, placing David on his lap. "So, what story do you want tonight?"

"I want to hear about Uncle Theta and Uncle Jamie defeating the Yetis!" David said.

"What, you don't want to hear about how Uncle Alan and I defeated the Handari?!"

"No, I want to hear about Uncle Theta and Uncle Jamie."

"Maybe you'd like to go live with them then seeing that you think I'm boring," Adam said when he placed David on the couch, got up and walked to the wall. David watched Adam sink to the floor when he drew his legs up, lowered his head and sobbed. Getting off the couch, David softly walked to him when he touched Adam's hair and frowned.

"I don't think you're boring, Daddy."

"Yes, you do! I'm just boring old Daddy! I never do anything fun," Adam sobbed and locked his hands behind his head.

"No, you're not. You're lots of fun. Daddy, don't cry."

"What's going on here?" Marion asked as she came into the room and looked at Adam. "Adam, why are you on the floor?"

"Daddy's crying because I wanted a story about Uncle Theta and Uncle Jamie."

"You did?"

"Yes, he did. He thinks I'm a boring lump and doesn't want to hear stories about me!" Adam sobbed and David sniffed, big tears creeping into his eyes.

"I think you better stop. He's crying," thought Marion when he looked up and David was shaking, his lower lip quivering.

"Awwwwwwwwwwww, Bump, Daddy was just kidding! I know you don't think I was boring!" Adam said when David ran into his arms and he rocked him. "Daddy went too far, eh?" David nodded as Adam sent love into his mind and saw Marion glaring at him. Sighing, he carefully got off the floor while holding onto David and walked to the couch. Sitting down, Adam rocked him and kissed the top of his head. Going forehead to forehead with him, he sent love and comfort into David's mind and they smiled at each other.

"Love you, Daddy."

"I love you, too, and I am sorry for scaring you."

"It's ok. I know you'd never scare me on purpose."

"Got that right, Jelly Beans, now, instead of a story, how about a movie?!"

"YAY!" David for off Adam's lap as he ran to the cupboard where they kept the dvds and Adam looked at Marion, who was sitting in the chair next to the couch.

"I'm sleeping on this couch tonight, aren't I?" Adam asked as he gave her sad puppy dog eyes and she gave him a look that would make his Jackie proud. "I guess so."

"Where is it? Where is it? Where is it?" a voice asked when Cameron came into his bedroom and saw toys flying across the room in his mirror. His toys were still in the toy chest that was across from his bed as he smiled and sat on the lid, looking at the mirror on his dresser.

"It's under the bed," he said when someone gasped and he heard a loud clunk.

"Ow, that hurt!" the voice said then he heard some grunting when a pair of hands appeared and a silver helmet slowly rose up from behind the dresser in the mirror. The red visor covered half of the face as Cameron giggled and the figure in the mirror tilted his head to one side. "Cor, what are you giggling at?"

"You!"

"Well, if you're going to laugh at me, I'll go," the figure in the mirror said and started to leave.

"No, don't go!"

"You promise not to laugh at me?" the figure asked, peeking back up at him.

"Yes!"

"Alright then," the figure in the mirror said, standing up, and placed his hands on the mirror side of the dresser. Cameron met his mirror friend two years ago when his cousins were away and his mirror friend only showed himself to Cameron. He didn't know where he came from but he did know he wasn't dangerous and he always appeared wearing the silver helmet. "So, where have you been? I've been here for hours."

"I went out to dinner with Mommy and Daddy."

"Ah, well, I'll let you get away with it this time." Cameron smiled when someone knocked on the door and the figure ducked down. The door opened while Theta walked into the room and looked at him.

"Are you ok, Kiddo, I thought I heard voices in here," Theta said, looking around the room.

"I was just talking to my friend," Cameron said and Theta looked at the mirror. They did know he had an imaginary friend who lived in the mirror and Frankie assured him that it was just a normal part of childhood development and that the friend would go away when he was older.

"Ah, I see. Well, do you and your friend want to come downstairs and watch telly? Your favorite show's on!" Cameron looked at the mirror when a hand came up, shook side to side then pointed at him then the door and he looked at Theta.

"Ok, but he doesn't want to," Cameron said and Theta smiled. Walking to the toy chest, he picked Cameron up then walked to the door and they left the room. After they left, the figure stood up when he leaned with his elbows on the mirror side of the dresser and looked at the night table near Cameron's bed. On the night table was a framed picture of Theta, Frankie and Cameron and the figure reached up to take the helmet off. Placing it on the floor, Cameron leaned against the side of the mirror and brushed the bangs from his eyes. He knew that Hoshi, let alone the Master, would be pissed if they knew he had found Theta and the Doctor years ago while traveling through the mirror world but when he saw how happy his sister was, he didn't have the guts to tell them where they were. Smiling, he pushed off the side of the mirror as he walked away and the sound of whistling echoed from behind the glass.
