The Doctor and the Yanar
Chapter 10
"So?" the Doctor demanded. He was standing up, legs firmly planted, arms crossed, staring at Jo.
Jo sighed and sat down on her bed. "Can we keep him?" she asked, biting her lip nervously.
The Doctor threw his hands up in the air, exasperated. "That's not a decision! The choices are: number one, let him go so he can bring havoc to the universe. Number two, kill him."
"Number three, lock him up in here, number four, freeze him in here," Jo interrupted. She stuck out her bottom lip slightly. "Please?"
The Doctor sighed. "Fine," he said. Jo jumped up at him, but he stopped her, waving one finger in her face. "On one condition." Jo waited. "You ask the TARDIS whether or not she's willing to have him.
Jo nodded. Turning, she put her hand lovingly on the wall. "Please, dear," she whispered.
The TARDIS stayed quiet for a moment, and Jo held her breath. Then, in her head, a voice, sounding not unlike the Doctor's in tone, said Fine.
Jo stroked the wall again, smiling, then jumped at the Doctor once more. This time he didn't stop her, instead catching her in a hug.
"Thank you," Jo whispered, before extracting herself. She sighed, preparing herself. "Now, we wake him up," she said, walking determinedly out of the room. This time, the Doctor didn't try to stop her.
When Draco began to unfreeze, the first thing he did was smile. "I knew you wouldn't be able to resist," he said when his chest had unfrozen. "You just had to come back. Now you're going to give me the 'please change your ways' speech, aren't you?" He sighed. "You're just like all the Yanar. Weak. Pathetic. Useless." he spat.
Jo shook her head. "Actually, you're wrong," she said. Draco raised his head, curious.
"Oh?"
"Since the Council is … unavailable, I shall pass judgement. From this moment on, you are sentenced to imprisonment for all eternity. Or however long it takes for you to change. Which I should think is about the same length of time."
Draco narrowed his eyes at Jo. "You wouldn't," he said cautiously.
Jo laughed humourlessly. "You really thought I would be merciful? After what you did? YOU KILLED MY FAMILY!" Jo roared through the bars of Draco's cage.
Without waiting for an answer, she spun around, grabbed the Doctor's hand, and marched off down the corridor, Draco's screams following her. "No! You can't leave me like this! No! Come ba-" His voice was cut off suddenly by the TARDIS, who slid the soundproof door closed.
A/N: So, what do you think? It's taking longer than I anticipated to finish, but hopefully it should be done in the next chapter. Probably. Anyway, please review if you liked it, or disliked it, or couldn't care either way. Please!
