Hey guys! I'm back with another chapter of Through Time and Space! These chapters might come less often because I might have a job. I will try and update as much as I possibly can. How about that Season finale though? Man, that hurt, but I really enjoyed it. Currently, I'm watching Supernatural. Anyways, on with the story!
Pyramids of Mars Part 3
When I woke up, I was in the study of the main house. I felt something on my neck. I reached up and noticed I was bleeding a little bit. Why am I bleeding? I look up to see I was in the study with Scarman and Sarah laying down next to me. They must have grabbed her as well.
"I hear you, Master." Scarman says as I come to.
"My enemies have brought the means of my deliverance." A voice said coming from the tomb. The tomb suddenly opened.
"The Tardis key!" I exclaim as Scarman reaches down and grabs Sarah's key.
"This allows you entry into the Time Lord's space machine. Take one servicer and travel to the pyramid of Mars." The voice says. There was some talking from the other side of the tomb, but I couldn't understand what was being said. "Master."
"I send you the Time Lord. He will control the machine. The human girls with accompany you. If the Time Lord shows the slightest sign of self-will, kill them immediately."
"It is understood, Great One." The Doctor came through the tomb. Something was very wrong.
"Doctor, what's happened?" Sarah asks as we start moving towards him.
"Stand back." Scarman says. Two mummies come up behind us and put a hand on our shoulders. The tight was tight and made me wince. "He is possessed by the Great One. Whom do you serve, Time Lord?"
"Sutekh." No, this can't be happening.
"Who holds all life in his hands?"
"Sutekh." This seriously can't be happening.
"Who is the bringer of death?"
"Sutekh!" He has to be acting.
"Venerate his name and obey him in all things."
"Sutekh is supreme." He isn't acting. This is really bad.
"No." Me and Sarah say.
"Control is established, Great One."
"It is well, but the Time Lords are a perfidious species. Dispose of him when you reach the pyramid of Mars." Sutekh says.
"It shall be done. Come." Scarman says as we are led into the Tardis followed by the mummies. The Doctor goes to the console and flies us to what I assume is the pyramid of Mars. When we land, we follow Scarman into a chamber. He goes over to a wall and finds a door. "Sutekh has no further need for the Time Lord. Destroy him."
"No!" Me and Sarah exclaim. The mummy on me goes over to the Doctor and strangles him. He goes limp and falls to the ground.
"Come." Scarman says as him and the mummies leave the chamber. The door disappears after them. Me and Sarah run over to the Doctor. He's not regenerating so that's a good thing. I grab his hand and wait for him to wake up. He's not dead. Sarah, on the other hand, runs over and puts her head on his chest. She starts crying. The Doctor opens his eyes, winks at me, and then starts patting the top of Sarah's head.
"Ah!" She exclaims clearly surprised.
"You're soaking my shirt." The Doctor says.
"Oh, you're alive!" Sarah says.
"Respiratory bypass system. Useful in a tight squeeze. Where are we?" He asks sitting up.
"I assume the pyramid of Mars." I say.
"Of course. Sutekh sent Scarman here to deactivate the pyramid. Where is he?" The Doctor asks standing up.
"We thought you'd become a zombie like Scarman." Sarah says.
"Sutekh didn't need me any more, so he relaxed his grip. Now, did you see where Scarman went?"
"Through that door." She points to where the door was. "It's vanished!"
"It can't be vanished. It's just not visible."
"Same difference."
"Scarman must be stopped. Somehow he must be stopped." After a while, the Doctor finally opens the door back open.
"Tribophysics."
"Yes." We walk into another chamber.
"Oh." The Doctor says. I notice he almost touched a control panel on our left.
"What are you waiting for?" Sarah asks.
"That's too obvious." The Doctor says as he observes the room.
"What is?"
"That is."
"Well, a door handle usually is."
"Not in a jail. Horus would have laid traps for the unwary."
"I thought Horus was one of the good guys." I say.
"He was an Osiran, with all their guile and ingenuity. Ah." The Doctor says as he finds a release and flips it. "They had dome-shaped heads and cerebrums like spiral staircases. Come on." The Doctor says as we walk into yet another chamber. The Doctor uses an antenna to test one of the two handles. The one the Doctor touched was electrified, but the other one was fine. The Doctor used it, and we walked into another chamber.
"It's like a Chinese puzzle." Sarah says.
"Yes and there's a key." The Doctor says.
"Oh, some key. Do you know what it means?"
"Yes, obviously the length of the lines provide a scale of measurement." The Doctor says.
"It reminds me of City of the Exxilons."
"Don't touch anything." The Doctor says looking at us. "Both of you."
"I wasn't going to." Sarah says.
"Neither was I." I say holding my hands up.
"Well, don't. One false move, and we could be blown to perdition. Feet and inches one side, meters and centimeters the other. Let's see." He takes off his scarf and starts measuring the lines on the wall. "A hundred and twenty point three centimeters, multiplied by the binary figure ten zero zero. That's a hundred and sixty two point four centimeters, correct?" The Doctor asks turning to us.
"I can't do that in my head." I said. How do you even do binary?
"Show-off." Sarah says.
"Hundred and sixty two point four. That's about seven stitches." He says as he measures up the blocks on the walls. Me and Sarah move behind him. "In case I'm wrong. Kate, do not stand behind me." He says pushing me away from him. He pushes one of the blocks. "I'm right. Come along." We walk into a fork in the path.
"Which way now?" Sarah asks. The Doctor leaves, but then we there was a cylinder thing dropped on me. I was trapped. This is not good. I started beating on the cylinder. Sarah was freaking out. I could tell she was yelling for the Doctor. He came running back. I couldn't hear him, but I could tell he was probably telling me to stay calm. I stopped beating the cylinder and stood still. Two mummies appear from one of the tunnels. I could tell the Doctor was talking, but it doesn't look like he's talking to Sarah. After a while, the mummies disappear along with the cylinder I was trapped in. I ran over and hugged the Doctor. He held me tight, gave me a kiss and pulled me along one of the tunnels.
"Come on! Come on!" We ran down the tunnel to a room with control panels all around the room. Scarman was there with two mummies, who were battling. Something explodes as we enter.
"Free!" Sutekh says as he comes out of an egg type thing. I guess that's what exploded.
"I'm free! Free at last!" Scarman says, but then he collapsed and turned into dust.
"He's won. Sutekh's won!" Sarah says. Behind us the doors open, and I see the inside of the Tardis.
"No! The time factor!" The Doctor exclaims.
"What?" Sarah asks.
"Come on, run!" The Doctor says as he grabs my hand and pulls me inside. Sarah runs in after us.
"Doctor!" Sarah exclaims. The Doctor goes over to the console, and the Tardis dematerializes. We run out into the store room. The Doctor is holding something I don't know what it is. We run into the study, and the Doctor fastens two wires to the case. He puts the machine on the floor in front of it. The tunnel activates.
"We've got about twenty seconds. Here he comes." We wait for a bit, and then we hear the voice of Sutekh.
"Who dares to interfere?" Sutekh asks.
"You're caught in a temporal trap, Sutekh."
"Time Lord! I shall destroy you. I shall destroy you!" Sutekh exclaims.
"How long do Osirans live, Sutekh?"
"Release me!"
"Never. You're caught in the corridor of eternity."
"Release me insect, or I shall destroy the cosmos!"
"You're a thousand years beyond the twentieth century now, Sutekh. Go on for another ten thousand."
"I'll spare the planet Earth. I'll give it to you as a plaything. Release me!"
"No, Sutekh. The time of the Osiran is long past."
"No!"
"Go. He lived about seven thousand years."
"He's dead. Sutekh is dead." I say.
"At last." The Doctor says.
"Look, I know that's the time control from the Tardis, but what did you do?" Sarah asks.
"I moved the threshold of the time space tunnel into the far future. He could never have reached the end. After the Eye was broken, I released that we had little more than two minutes to get back here."
"But how?"
"The time radio waves take to pass from Mars to Earth."
"Ah, so the Eye of Horus was still holding Sutekh for two minutes after it was broken."
"Yes. You know, the Egyptians called him the Typhonian beast." Suddenly there was a boom from the case.
"Doctor!" I yell. Flames and smoke were coming from the case.
"That was careless of me. I forgot the thermal balance would equalize."
"Listen, this priory was burnt to the ground, remember?" Sarah asks.
"Yes. Perhaps it is time we were leaving. We don't want to be blamed for starting a fire, do we?" The Doctor says as we start walking back to the storeroom.
"No." I say.
"I had enough of that in 1666." The Doctor says.
"What?" Sarah asks.
"Do I get to go on that adventure?" I ask.
"You'll just have to wait and see." We get back to the storeroom and go into the Tardis. As the Tardis dematerializes, I start to glow.
"Doctor." I say. He comes over to me quickly and pulls out a ring.
"This is yours. Good luck with whatever adventure you go on." I disappear and appear in another older looking Tardis. Looks like I'm going on another adventure I have no idea what is going to happen.
To be continued...
