"That man's insane! I'm talking about more insane than Drachen when he barges into a mine, arrows poking through him like a pincushion!" Brhuce said worriedly. "Guys, what's going on?" Nisfar asked. "Nerevarine, take out your ring. The Doctor is getting up there, and I'm sure he'll do something crazy!" Brhuce warned over the microphone. The door behind the head of the Akulakhan opens as the sunglasses-wearing Doctor, holding the Thyme Warp, emerges. The platform extends to the door before The Doctor boards the Akulakhan.
"I'm sorry; did you say something about me doing something crazy? Well, here's the thing: I'm the personification of crazy." The Doctor boasted. "I heard that!" Sheogorath's voice screamed from a speaker inside the head. "Are you sure you want to enter without safety harnesses?" Drachen asked over the speaker. "I'll be fine, I almost never even touched a seatbelt in my entire life and look at me. I'll be fine." answered the Doctor confidently. "Well, if you say so. Activating time door." Drachen announced.
The door activates as the Akulakhan turns around and walks into it, disappearing into a glowing blue curtain. "I think it worked. So, who's up for Battle of Heroes?" Sheogorath asked everyone as he produces a pack of cards from his hat. The Akulakhan arrives in the past version of the room; dark, dilapidated, and spider webs covering every inch. Nisfar presses the purple button for holographic map of Tamriel to pop out of the console, then Nisfar points to a marker on the bottom-left edge of Summerset Isles. The Akulakhan is teleported in a flash as a past version of Drachen, a young blonde Nord with flowing hair, enters the room with a makeshift toolbox.
"What was that?" Drachen wondered in confusion. The Akulakhan arrives at a grassy field where they see the Numidium on the horizon and an entire army of Altmer soldiers. "Where's the anomaly? Is it even here?" The Doctor wondered as he adjusts his sunglasses while holding the thyme warp with his elbow joint. The Numidium spots the Akulakhan and then walks over in an attempt to kick it. As it pulls back its right leg the Akulakhan enlarges to match the Numidum's height and is hit in the shin and almost trips.
Nisfar throws his right fist and punches the Numidium in the face. The Numidium retaliates by throwing a right hook at the head. The Doctor is thrown into the air by the force of the punch along with the thyme warp, still smiling and dancing. The Doctor catches the plant and lands on his feet. "Are there any weapons on this knockoff Cyberking?!" The Doctor asked worriedly as he dusts off soil off of his jacket.
Nisfar presses the button with a holographic hammer above the console. The Akulakhan's right hand converts into a hammer and hits the Numidium on the shoulder with it. "How long should I hold it off?" Nisfar asked. "Until the time warp appears, which should be soon!" The Doctor said while panicking as the Numidium lands another punch. The Akulakhan falls on its back but Nisfar is still standing on the platform as if the Akulakhan was upright.
The Doctor on the other hand, slams both his face and the plants on a door on the back of the head. "I'll see you later!" The Doctor yelled as he stood upright. He presses a button on the side of his sunglasses and the door opens revealing a bed of grass beneath as the Akulakhan begins to rise. He lands on the ground and then runs, but is eventually surrounded by Altmer soldiers. "Hello! Weather's lovey today, isn't it?" The Doctor joked nervously.
A distortion appears in the air between him and the soldiers. The Akulakhan steps back as the soldier retreat. "There's the time warp!" The Doctor pointed. He throws the thyme warp into the time warp and they clash together while making ripples in reality until it disappears. "Yes! It worked! For once Electronic Arts, you've done some good." The Doctor yelled in celebration and throwing his hands in the air as the Akulakhan's begins to fall again on the Doctor.
The Akulakhan lands on The Doctor, but the back door was open and he survives, but was temporarily paralysed by fear. He then quickly closes the door and locks it with the high-pitched noise from his sunglasses before being flung towards the console. He grabs the edge of the platform as the Akulakhan stands upright and walks to Nisfar. "The time warp is gone and we can go now!" The Doctor said to Nisfar as he panicked. "I'm a little busy here!" Nisfar said before the Numidium kicks the Akulakhan's chest, causing it to stumble backwards.
The Doctor slams his hand on the purple button, then grabs Nisfar's arm and forces him to point to a marker on Skyrim. As the Numidium was about to punch at the Akulakhan's, the Akulakhan shrinks and disappears, causing the Numidium to trip and stumble to the ground. From a ship off the coast, a man in armour and crown spots the Numidium falling with a disappointed face. Back in the ancient Akulakhan hangar, the Akulakhan is teleported back as the younger Drachen is working on the door. "Is that what I think it is?" Drachen wondered.
The Doctor and Nisfar exit the Akulakhan from a hatch on its right shoe. "Hello Doctor, how are you doing?" Drachen asked politely. "Just bring us back already." The Doctor commanded in a stressed tone. "The door's is ready. Did you close the time warp yet?" Drachen asked. "Yes, we did. If we didn't we wouldn't be here. Now send us back." The Doctor commanded.
Drachen opens the door with a button at the bottom right of the frame for them enter the door and disappear. In the present the rest of the group is playing a card game in the control room as The Doctor and Nisfar emerge from the portal.
