Author's Note : I am releasing the last three chapters together. Hope you like them. And I've also decided to release Revelation: The Two Immortals before Revelation : Secrets Unfold. Anyway that's enough now. Enjoy!
They ran through the hallways as guards collapsed all around them. The Doctor, hesitant at first, began shooting the small darts when George assured him they were non-lethal. "Well, probably" he added later, making the Doctor glare at him. They did seem non-lethal, but he saw one of the guards turn dark green with nausea. "Wow, this really is turning out like War of the Worlds. I wonder if they'll leave Nonazon!"
They had been trying to get out for a few minutes now, stopping at every intersection in the twisting and winding hallways and staircases, in case they happened on an army. Well... those sorts of things never ended well. They paused to take out two more guards, as their hard work finally paid off, leading them outside the main building.

"You're late" noted the voice from the shadows, as the High Lord entered the alleyway. The High Lord, always the punctual and moody guy, grew extremely annoyed whenever somebody noted his lateness. "Come, on give me some credit!" he grumbled. "I just locked up the most dangerous man in the entire universe and you're bothered about me being late?" The silhouette waved the issue aside. "That doesn't matter" it said. "Everything else is going according to plan, I assume? Are the Sontarans and Rutans cooperating?" The High Lord nodded. "Everything's going well. This plan's a brilliant plan."
"Kudos to your patron for that. Except for my part. Where do I figure in? What do I get from this? I analysed the whole situation yesterday, and I found that I don't get a single credit from this stunt. So this may be a brilliant plan, but you tell that stupid patron of yours, if I don't get what I was promised, I'll uncover this whole mess you've got me into." "Shhh!" quieted the silhouette. "You do know who you're talking about right?! If she finds out, we'll both lose our heads. And don't forget, she was the reason for your rise to power. Everything must go exactly according to plan. The Sonatarans failed last time, so our patron is counting on you to destroy the Doctor. The prophecy of Trenzalore may have been thwarted, but Silence must still fall!"

The tetrad paused for breath behind a clump of bushes. The companions decided to keep watch, while the two Timelords tried to figure the best way out of the Zone. "So let me get this straight" began the Doctor, attempting to make conversation. "You've been following me ever since the Time War?" George, not in the mood for talking, closed the conversation with a curt nod, but he softened up after seeing the hurt look on the Doctor's face.
"We knew each other well, you and I, but circumstances forced both of us to walk in different directions. Especially after the Time War... I decided that it's best that we stick together. But I couldn't get myself to meet you, afraid that you'd hate me once you found out my true identity. But I suppose it was inevitable that we were to meet, Theta." The Doctor, visibly shocked by the use of his Academy name, was about to press for more details, but was cut off by the sudden loud shrill of alarm bells. "Halt, who goes there, friend or foe!"
