Rescue Mission
Creeping through the shadows, the young traveller kept a watchful eye for any would-be ambushers, and potential targets. His current target wasn't too far ahead.
The Doctor and Rory were tied together, guarded by formidable creatures that Edmund would have to take down before he could rescue them. Or maybe…
"Ven, Nell, can you creep past the guards and untie Rory and the Doctor? If they're free, I just need to distract the guards, not attack them." The snake smirked up at him before slithering from his wrist and crawling along towards the two captives, followed by the spider.
"Gives us 30 seconds," they instructed.
Edmund counted in his head. He could do this, he just needed to time it right. And avoid the sight of the Fearsome Queen's minions. If they spotted him before the Doctor and Rory could be released, he would be captured and the plan would fail. As well as the creatures guarding the unlucky pair, eagles and owls flew overhead, scanning the area for signs of the little traveller.
Upon reaching 30 seconds, Edmund leapt from his hiding place.
"Hey! Dirty mutts! Are you looking for someone?" he teased, before turning tail and sprinting in the opposite direction. Howls and roars alerted him to the creatures giving chase. Through the halls and rooms he ran, praying the Doctor could stop the Fearsome Queen before Edmund was caught.
Unexpectedly, a figure appeared before him.
"Aha!" It was the Queen, she wasn't supposed to be here. "Caught you!"
Grabbing hold of him, she immediately utilized her most useful torture device; one that she knew worked very well with this particular little traveller.
She tickled him mercilessly.
"Amy….stop…I can't breathe!" Edmund gasped between laughs, as Nate, Lorcan, India and Bolt caught up to him and joined in the tickle fight. Edmund was helpless for some minutes until Rory arrived on the scene and tackled his wife (aka, the Fearsome Queen).
Quickly, Edmund leapt up and ran through the halls of the TARDIS, flying past the Doctor, who soon followed after him when he saw Amy charging towards them, Rory having been left to the mercy of the 'wooden' animals Amy had on her side.
Laughter rang throughout he TARDIS, proving that the travellers didn't even have to walk out its doors to have adventures.
