Chapter 10
As Martha was engulfed in the blue beam was furious all she wanted to do was get home and go to sleep. As the beam diminished around her she saw that she was in a passageway of a small ship facing a gray wall. Behind her she heard the beeps and blips of a control panel and spun around to give her capture a piece of her mind.
"Now hear this I want to be returned to my home immediately I work for Torch…." Her demur changed when she saw who was standing in front of her. "I don't believe it. Is that you Jenny?"
Jenny just smiled then ran to Martha and gave her a great big hug, "Yes it is me. It is so good to see you."
Martha still in shock, "But you died I saw it happen right before my eyes." Then as an afterthought she added, "Does the Doctor know?"
"No my Dad doesn't that is why we are here we are trying to find him and let him know and ask for his help."
"What is going on Jenny why do you need his help?"
Grabbing Martha's hand Jenny brought her to the cockpit of the ship and introduced her companion, "This is Fabrianne, and she is the one that told me that the half breeds need to be saved from the shadow council."
Martha interrupted, "You mean the people who drafted up the Shadow Proclamation that the Doctor quotes to get a response from other aliens?"
Fabrianne spoke up, "Yep that's the one and we don't have much time we need to find the Doctor."
"Well I don't know where he is but I could call him with my cell." Martha reached into her pocket to retrieve her phone which wasn't there, "Great I must have left it at the Torchwood hub."
Fabrianne started up the engines and asked, "Which direction do I need to go?"
"You need to head south the go east it is in downtown Cardiff but you can't fly this ship through the sky, people will definitely start to get nervous." Martha responded.
"Don't worry my ship is shadowed no one will see us." The young pilot commented.
"What do you mean shadowed?"
"The Silverlight has a cloaking shield that keeps it from being seen."
Then in a flash the three women were off to Torchwood and before Martha could blink an eye they had arrived.
Landing the ship in the central square of Cardiff they disembarked and Martha led them to the guest entrance into Torchwood reaching the time flux square next to the fountain she grabbed both Fabrianne and Jenny's hands and stepped up.
"Okay ladies get ready to descend into the bowels of Cardiff." The platform recognized Martha's voice and started to move downward.
As it moved Jack's office came into view and through the glass window the three women got a full view of Ianto and Jack cuddling and kissing obviously basking in the afterglow of passion.
Martha just shook her head and called out, "You know Jack you really should tint the glass to your office because you never know when we will have guests."
Seeing his Medical officer with two other women he couldn't resist a bit of a flirt, "Well why don't you bring you and friends up here and they can have a full show."
Fabrianne just laughed, "I like him."
Martha just shook her head, "Most people do."
Jenny just stared with eyes wide opened, not sure what was going on she made a mental note to ask her father but then changed her mind she would ask Donna instead.
By the time the trio reached the bottom Ianto and Jack were coming down the stairs dressing along the way to meet them.
As he approached Jack chastised Martha, "I thought I told you to go home and get some rest."
"I was at home on my doorstep when I was beamed up into a spacecraft by these two."
Jack looked over Martha's shoulder and saw Fabrianne first, holding out his hand to her he introduced himself, "Captain Jack Harkness at your service ma'm."
Stepping closer she shook his hand, "It is nice to meet you Captain but I think I like you better with your clothes off."
Chuckling he turned to Martha, "I like her."
"The feeling is mutual Jack."
Then Martha moved and introduced Jenny to him, "And I like you to meet Jenny." And with a bit more firmness she continued, "The Doctor's daughter."
Jack stopped in his tracks, "What do you mean the Doctor's daughter."
Jenny stepped forward, "Just that I am his daughter, I was created by utilizing one of his zygote cells or something like that, he talks so fast sometimes it is hard to understand him."
Whispering in Martha's ear Jack commented, "A trait he seems to have pass down to her."
"Well it is a pleasure to meet you Jenny," Then clapping his hands together he spoke a bit louder, "So what brings you to Cardiff and how can we help."
"We need to get my cell Jack so we can call the Doctor it seems that the Shadow Council is causing trouble for a race called the half breeds." Martha responded while running to her desk to retrieve her phone.
As she returned she was a bit out of breath but saw worry emitting from Jack's eyes, "What is it?
Turning around he called over his shoulder all joviality gone, "You ladies better come upstairs and start from the beginning before calling the Doctor.
Quickly the trio started after him Fabrianne spoke breathlessly, "I think we just hit a cord with him I wonder why he is so worried."
"I don't know," Martha responded "He gets this way whenever his past catches up with him."
Jenny listened to the two women and added another question to her question list to ask Donna when she saw her again. She wanted to know why humans worry so much because with her limited experience time always worked things out.
Once they arrived in the room Jack addressed them, "Please sit down and tell me what the Shadow Council wants with the half Lords of the galaxies."
The Doctor snapped his fingers and started to walk out the door while grabbing his long brown coat, "Why don't you grab a coat and meet me outside."
Looking around Christine wasn't sure where to go to find the coat closet when she stowed on board at Torchwood she only had a brief amount of time to explore the TARDIS. Feeling a bit frustrated she was about to ask the Doctor where to go when she noticed he was nowhere to be found.
"Just great I am traveling through space and time with a brilliant man that is forgetful."
Wondering what to do next she sat down to think. If his TARDIS was anything like Jared's then she could easily get lost in the labyrinth of rooms and corridors and that wasn't something she wanted to do. Then suddenly she got a brilliant idea she only hoped that it would work.
Standing up she touched the console of the TARDIS and looked up to the shaft of light that moved the Doctor to where he wanted to go and asked,
"I know you don't know me very well but I would greatly appreciate it if you would guide me to the coat room so I can join the Doctor outside."
Christine waited hoping the TARDIS would be receptive to her, and after a few minutes one of the panels of the control room opened up to reveal the cloak room with a selection of coats to choose from.
Patting the control panel she, "Thank you my friend I hope this is a beginning of a fantastic relationship."
She went and picked out a coat and turned to leave when she noticed the Doctor standing very still and looking at her strangely.
In a very quiet voice he asked, "How did you do that."
"I don't understand how did I do what?"
"How did you manipulate the TARDIS to do your will no one has ever been able to do that except me."
Brushing past him and heading toward the exit she called back, "I asked nicely."
Following her outside he took one look back at his TARDIS and wondered why she was so accommodating to Christine but not to the other companions he traveled with not even his beloved Rose.
Once outside Christine stopped in her tracks, the planet they were on was beautiful the snow glistened like diamonds in the light of the duel moons in the sky. She just stood and absorbed everything around her so that she could paint it when she returned home.
The Doctor saw her reaction and walked up behind her soundlessly. He leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear startling her, "It is lovely isn't it. And it is even lovelier when you can hear to song of the Ood in conjunction with the landscape."
The warmth of his breath on her cheek made her fluster in the cold and take her breath away. The Doctor sensed the change in Christine and smiled sweetly before stepping away from her heading for the Ood compound.
Seeing the Doctor move along prompted her to move as well. While following him it occurred to her that he could hear the song again which meant he was back in flux with time. But she wondered what he meant when he said the landscape was even more beautiful with the Ood's song.
Running up to him she asked out of breath, "What do you mean that it is more beautiful?"
Continuing his brisk walk he explained, "The Ood or very in tune with the environment of their planet and depending on how the planet feels it reflects in their song."
Grabbing a hold of his arm she tried to understand, "So are you telling me that the song I heard earlier in my mind is not the same song you hear now."
"No they are different the one you heard was the song of help the one I am hearing now is the song of joy and hope."
"Wow that is amazing I wish you weren't blocking the song from my mind so I could experience the same thing you are."
Stopping he looked at her and instructed, "You are half Time Lord whatever doors I put in your mind can be brought down by you. All you have to do is think about what you desire and make it happened."
Deciding to try what the Doctor suggested she started to think about her desires and was immediately bombarded with images of the Doctor naked and calling to her to join him in his bed.
The Doctor chuckling instructed, "Not on those types of desires, you need to focus your mind only on the Ood's song and let everything else fade away."
Surprised that he knew what she was thinking about she asked, "That is the second time you knew what I was thinking. How do you know?"
"Never you mind that Christine, right now you need to focus." He said a bit more fiercely then before.
Chris closed her eyes and focused on her surroundings she felt the snow on her face, the briskness of the air, and the softness of the moonlight. As she breathed in and out she let everything including the Doctor fade into the shadows.
Then she waited, after a while she started to feel discouraged and was about to ask the Doctor to help when suddenly she heard something, she wasn't sure if was real or a figment of her imagination, but as she focused harder the Ood's song suddenly exploded in her head as all the boundaries in her mind drop at once.
Feeling the panic rise in her chest she was about to call out when she heard the Doctor's voice,
"Let the music flow through your body allow yourself not only hear the music but feel the music deep in the inner recesses of your soul."
Immediately Chris started to relax and follow his instructions the music soon became tolerable then soon thereafter it became very enjoyable.
She opened her eyes to the image of a smiling Doctor staring at her, "I knew you could do it. Now come on time is a wasting."
Following the Doctor's brisk walk Christine felt exhilarated at her new found ability. Marveling at the song in her head she soon she fell far behind and once she realized the amount of distance between her and the Doctor she started to run to catch up.
She reached the compound not long after the Doctor and watched him as he greeted one of the inhabitants of the planet. She moved more quickly to catch up to him not wanting to miss what was being said.
Raising his hand up to the Ood the Doctor greeted him, "Sigma how wonderful to see you, sorry it took so long to get her but I have been distracted."
"Hello Doctor." The Sigma Ood replied, "We are so glad you have come we have important information to pass on to you."
In her haste to reach the Doctor she tripped while moving down the steep embankment and face planted in the snow as she called for help.
The Doctor hearing her call rushed over to help her up, "You need to be more careful Christine."
"Thanks for the advice I will try not to sleep and fall uncontrollably in the future." Christine responded sarcastically.
As she stood up to dust off the snow from her jeans she waved to the Ood behind the Time Lord, "Hello I am Christine how are you?"
But instead of replying to her greeting he immediately knelt in the snow, "Your highness we are so honored to see you again."
Confused the Doctor asked, "How do you know her Sigma she has never been here before."
Then turning to Christine he inquired, "You haven't have you?"
"No I have never here or met any of the Ood before today I swear I am not sure what he is talking about."
Walking over to Sigma the Doctor took a hold of his arm and tried to raise the Ood out of the snow, "Come on Sigma stand up." But Sigma remained stubbornly submissive.
Seeing the Doctor was having no luck with the stubborn Ood Christine walked over and knelt in the snow beside him.
"Listen Sigma, I am not sure how we have met but I would never want anyone to bow down before me no matter what time period I am in. So please rise and let the other Ood know I never want you to do that again okay."
Looking at her with his golden eyes he acknowledged her request, "That is exactly what you told me the last time we met." Standing up he continued, "Please forgive me for testing you but I had to make sure you were the actual wife of Prince Jared."
Confused she spoke, "I am sorry but I don't remember ever meeting you and I do have a very good memory I promise you that."
"You would not remember me because your husband erased the memory from your mind. Please come with me both of you and I will explain."
Following Sigma into the building the Doctor took a moment to think. Why would Jared erase certain memories from his wife's mind and what other memories laid buried deep in her subconscious. Hoping that Jared knew what he was doing he followed them into the building promising to be extra vigilant when observing the Princess of Gillifrey.
