Sorry about the long wait, i don't have time over weekdays. Anyway i have ended this now out of fear that it was beggining to drag and i was losing interest. So the last ever chapter! is that worth reviewing?

The doctor turned, eyeing Tiac carefully. He pushed Amy behind him, encase Tiac lashed out. He saw Jasmine out of the corner of his eye, she was removing her mask showing her young freckled face. She stood close to Viola, he guessed they had probably worked together to aid his escape. Tiac also removed his mask, but it revealed a deformed alien face. The bloodthirsty leader clasped his hands together, his eyes burning with hatred. He was pretending to clap them

"Well done, two challenges cleared, But you're not getting away that easily." he explained coldly.

"Wanna bet?" The doctor responded, grinning slightly.

"I will make you a deal, complete the last challenge and you can leave," Tiac ignored him. The Doctor narrowed his eyes.

"And what if we say no?"

"You don't exactly have a choice, seeing as the challenge is to escape this world," Tiac replied smiling.

"Okay then, how do we do that seeing as you're blocking our escape route?" Viola snarled at him, with a slight flicker of humour.

"Well, I doubt you will be able to do it. But I'll give you a head start of about lets say 30 seconds" Tiac replied scornfully. They backed away slightly as Tiac raised a Stray, aiming it at them. "Should I start counting?" The Doctor ignored him, ignored everything. He completely blocked out the world around him, focusing intently on nothing and everything. He felt heat rise within him, the whole ground seemed to heat up, although he knew this was only in his imagination. His eyes sparkled for a fracture of a second, a path of escape embedded on his mind. He grabbed Amy's hand and dragged her up the cliff face. Jasmine and Viola followed close behind, although a little confused.

"Doctor where are we going?" Amy whispered, he barely looked at her but continued on his path. Rocks scattered beneath him as his feet dislodged them, he was fighting just to keep his balance.

"15 seconds left, you aren't getting anywhere fast" Tiac shouted from below, the doctor could picture his dark grin, his blood-hungry eyes, the sharp piercing fangs as he ran his tongue over them.

"10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 , 3, 2,1 and a half, 1 and three quarters" Tiac was enjoying this, let him enjoy it. A small crack just big enough for him to fit through loomed up ahead. He quickly dived for it, just as a storm of gunshots were fired.

"That was close," stated jasmine her breathing was shallow but the doctor couldn't miss the sense of adventure within.

"No fun otherwise" He replied grinning, pulling back some hair that had found its way on his face. He panted back against the wall, aware that Tiac would find them soon. Luckily he could see daylight coming from the far end of the cave, whether it was a gap big enough for them to fit through was a different matter. He walked, in a more of trotting sort of way towards the possible exit, and sure enough there was a large hole, leading out towards the first building in which he had entered. He took a quick glance around before walking out, as if he owned the place. He nearly jumped as Viola catapulted in front of him, blocking his route. Her fur was fluffed up, she was sniffing the air carefully, expression unreadable.

"Be careful, something smells strange here. Let me have a look ahead first," without waiting for him to answer the howler jogged forward, her large paws supporting her muscular weight allowing her to walk silently on the ground. The doctor waited, he too could smell something strange, something he didn't recognise.

He couldn't see the Tardis from where he stood, his body was itching to run to were it should be. But he wouldn't be surprised if Tiac had moved it, or guarded it. He wasn't planning on leaving anyway, but he would prefer Amy to be safe. He was sure that this was the year 40,0000 at the start of Kee's rain, it was meant to be peaceful. Maybe he had landed before, but he didn't recognise the name Tiac. He doubted that Tiac had the power to change history, but this didn't fit in. Okay, it wasn't a fixed point, so Tiac could be from this time zone and it could be normal for him. Maybe something did change, something minor and it affected what Tiac would do. He needed to know, but wondered if he would ever find out.

Viola returned, her expression was still unreadable but she didn't seemed scared. He would have said she looked more…confused. She nodded at them.

"It's safe, I didn't go too far though, so just keep an eye out" She warned already setting off, leading the way. The doctor didn't bother to argue, just followed making sure Amy was always close by. This was too easy, there were no guards, no traps nothing! Tiac must have thought about that, he didn't seem like the person who would miss that out. He caught a glimpse of blue in the corner of his eyes, turning he saw the Tardis. He grinned but remained wary.

Just then several shots were fired in their direction. He broke off into a run towards his Tardis, grabbing the key from his pocket. He didn't need to look to know who was following them. He allowed Amy, jasmine and viola to run ahead of him. They reached the Tardis doors, but he didn't want to go in, yet. He wanted to confront Tiac. Get him to stop. The others hesitated not sure what they should do. He ignored them as Tiac rushed towards them, blue eyes burning.

They were now facing each other, One armed with weapons the other with knowledge. Looking into those magical eyes he heard it, the cry of unhappiness. The pleading to be cared for, the need for love. Tiac seemed to be screaming inside his head, almost explaining everything to him. What had driven him here. The scars that had been caused, the pain of mocking laughter and how it chilled your soul. The Doctor was too familiar with these fillings. He couldn't let it go, the pain, the hate, the loneliness. The Doctor urged him, trying to tell him in his mind to stop, to listen, to live. It wasn't working.

"Tiac stop, it's dangerous doing what you're doing. Especially with a mind as advanced as a Time Lord's" The doctor warned, feeling Tiac begin to burn from the inside. That was what he was doing. He was speaking with a time lord's mind, no one of Tiac's species should be able to do that. It was beyond them, yet here he was doing it. It would be too much, it would destroy him.

"No Doctor, I know so much about you. How did you do it? Why was it us to suffer?" Tiac cried, his voice full of sadness and longing. He shook his head, counting the seconds that would mark Tiac's remaining lifespan. There was a cry, an ear-splitting screech enough to make anyone but someone as hard as the Doctor cry. Now where Tiac had stood, all that remained was a cloud of black dust.

"Doctor, what just happened?" Amy asked, confused and amazed a as well as sad.

"He tried to look into a brain of a time lord, it was too much. It burnt him," He explained not looking away from where Tiac had been. He turned towards Jasmine and Viola. "Go back to the prison, release the planet. Tiac is no longer in control, you are! Make it great, and restore the peace. Also if you have an election I would vote for kee" The doctor explained, forcing a grin at the last bit. They nodded.

"Will do" They said together. He nodded to them, turning back towards Amy.

"Come on then 'Pond', lets go find something interesting" He stated, stepping into the Tardis. Viola and Jasmine watched until the Tardis disappeared from their world and into space. They knew what they had to do.
