Complications

By The Plot Thinens

Chapter 36 – The Beast makes himself known

The Doctor and Rose, along with Danny, were running as fast as they could to relative safety, because where ever that was it sure was not where they were currently. Not an easy feat with the whole base shaking. All the while Zach frantically worked at the control console to try and put an end to the chaos before they got a nice taste of what it feels like to be in a vacuum.

"I can't contain the oxygen field. We're going to lose it." Zach shouted out to his crew over the comm. System.

Down the corridor the Doctor and company were met by Jefferson who shouted for them to keep moving as the crew all converged from different directions through the air lock door. The last into the corridor was Toby who Jefferson was glad to see had survived, despite coming from the direction where the problem seemed to be coming from. He ordered the man to get moving along with the rest of the group. The air lock door was closed with all the remaining crew seemingly safer. Although one never knew with how the base was still shaking. Then suddenly things in the corridor got calmer.

"Breach sealed. Breach sealed." Announced the computer voice much to everyone's relief as the shaking subsided.

"Everyone all right?! What happened? What was it?" Questioned the Doctor, very keen to know what went wrong with this human made deathtrap. Guilt with having brought his wife here was doubled by his feeling of helplessness. He was completely dependent on these humans getting him and Rose out of here and right now his confidence in them was waning.

"Oxygen levels normal." Announced the computer voice again.

"Hull breach. We were open to the elements. Another couple of minutes and we'd have been inspecting that black hole at close quarters." Exclaimed Jefferson with the relief that comes from having possibly cheated death.

"That wasn't a quake. What caused it?" Asked the Doctor, whose question was answered by Zach,

"We've lost sections eleven to thirteen Everyone all right?" This answer did not make the Doctor feel any better and he wondered just how many more parts of this base were going to be lost today. At this rate they'd all be dead in a matter of days.

"We've got everyone here except Scooti. Scooti, report. Scooti Manista? That's an order. Report." Ordered Jefferson over his wrist comm.

"She's all right. I've picked up her biochip. She's in…Habitation three. Better go and check if she's not responding. She might be unconscious." Ordered Zach over the comm. system.

"How about that, eh? We survived." Cheered Zach with tired relief. It was a good day when everyone survived such an ordeal, it could have been much worse.

"Habitation three. Come on. I don't often say this, but I think we could all do with a drink. Come on." Ordered Jefferson to the group and they all got moving.

The Doctor had also noticed that Toby, panting on the floor, had seemed to come from the direction of the hull breach and with much curiosity on how the man had survived and what he had seen, he asked Toby what had happened.

"I don't. I don't know. I was working and then I can't remember. All that noise. The room was falling apart. There was no air." Answered Toby quite distraught. Rose being Rose, felt sorry for the poor shaken man and as best as she could helped him to his feet with in her condition and smiled,

"Come on. Up you get. Come and have some protein one."

"Oh, you've gone native." Smirked the Doctor at Rose so quickly adapting to the food selection on the base.

"Oi, don't knock it. It's nice. Protein one with just a dash of three." She smirked at the Doctor who smiled back at her. They had a silly moment where they just looked at each other. Then remembering herself and the upset man next to her she lead Toby into Habitation 3.

"I've checked Habitation four. Can you hear me?" Announced Ida in frustration and a hint of worry into her comm., which was heard by all on the base. The Doctor and Rose came into Habitation 3 to find the crew members frantically looking for their crewmate to no avail.

"There's no sign of her. The biochip says she's in the area. Have any of you seen Scooti?" Jefferson asked while looking at the still shaken Toby sitting down at one of the tables...

"No, no, no, I don't think so." He replied. Jefferson and Ida continued their panicked search communicating with Zach at lightning speed. So busy in trying to sort out what was happening that they didn't even think to look up. Which the Doctor had and to his great sadness solved the mystery of Scooti's whereabouts.

"I've found her." The Doctor said mournfully, while continuing to look up through the overhead window. Everyone else in the room followed his example and raised their heads to a terrifying sight.

"Oh, my God." Gasped Rose as she spotted Scooti's lifeless body drifting away toward the black hole. There was a deafening silence among all in habitation 3 which was only broken by the Doctor whispering his apologies to the poor dead woman,

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." With a heavy heart Jefferson raised his wrist comm. to his mouth and announced to Zach,

"Captain. Report Officer Scootori Manista PKD, deceased. Forty three K two point one."

"She was twenty. Twenty years old." Ida all but sobbed for the poor woman whose life had been cut short. With all the gloom of a funeral march Ida made her way over to the overhead shutters and closed them as one might throw earth into a grave to cover a coffin. Jefferson solemnly began to quotes Horatius,

"For who should man die better than facing fearful odds? For the ashes of his father and the temples of his gods?" This would serve as her eulogy. Rose could not keep her eyes off the poor woman until she was completely blocked by the shutters. Scooti was no older than her. She had a bright future ahead of her, but now her journey stopped here. Cut short. Rose couldn't help but reflect on her own life, she had many years to look forward to and why her more deserving than Scooti? Death just didn't make sense to her. The randomness of it and Rose began to wonder if she would not be joining Scooti soon too. If the universe and all its possibilities could be so cruel to Scooti, there was nothing that insured her continued existence, Doctor or no Doctor, baby or no baby. Her pondering however was interrupted by the sound of the base going completely silent.

"It's stopped." Noted Ida in surprise.

"What was that? What was it?" Questioned Rose in confusion. She then stepped over to be closer to the Doctor as she worried about what was going to happen next, while fighting off images of being sucked into the vacuum of space. Without a TARDIS the universe and space where fast becoming more scary than magnificent. She had been so spoiled by the TARDIS.

"The drill." Stated the Doctor.

"We've stopped drilling. We've made it. Point Zero." Declared Ida with some excitement, but tamped down by their recent loss.

All of a sudden the base was alive with activity again. The purpose of the whole expedition was now coming into action, to find the power source responsible to the survival of the rock they were on. As well as locate any possible civilizations rumored to exist on it. Artifacts had been found but now it was larger signs of civilization they were looking for. Still everyone was wary of the behavior of the Ood. The Doctor had not forgotten that someone or something was controlling or talking to them telepathically and he wanted to find out who. The Doctor reasoned that whatever it was could be a threat to their safety and return to any place safer than a planet above a black hole. Since the source was not above than it had to be below. He was the strongest telepath among this group and the one most suited to find an answer to who was harassing the Ood's telepathic link. That just left the rather hard task of telling Rose what he planned to do. He doubted that even with their strained relationship that she would like him risking his life going down a mine shaft to explore an already dangerous planet's insides. She cared for his safety and if anything happened to him… she'd be worse off than Jackie was when Pete died. At least Jackie was widowed on a planet not as hostile toward life. It would be a hard sell. The Doctor saw Ida leave to recover a spacewalk suit from the storage room. She was going to go down there and he had to accompany her. He was the most qualified and would keep Ida the safest. He couldn't bear to lose another person today if he could help it. He also couldn't help but wonder if there might be any chance to save the TARDIS as small as that chance might be. Though it was probably buried under tons of rock, far away from where he was going, and probably not nearly as deep. Turning to Rose he entreated permission to take her hand which she accepted.

"Rose, something is going on here on this planet. And the only way we are going to get to the bottom of all this is literally by getting to the bottom of all this. I might not have my TARDIS anymore, but I can still figure out what has got the Ood acting so odd. If something can control them like that then there is no telling what it could make them do beside make creepy speeches in unison. Whatever it was does not sound friendly." Explained the Doctor and Rose was getting an idea as to what The Doctor was getting at and she feared for him. But before she could breathe another word the Doctor continued,

"I might not come back if I go down there, Rose, but it's the best shot we have to get off this planet alive...but if you don't want me to, then I won't." He was giving her a choice. He was letting her decide for the both of them. It had been him calling all the shots for too long and Rose had an equal say in what the two of them did in this relationship.

You really think it's worth the risk?" Questioned Rose. The Doctor then never breaking eye contact replied,

"Yes, yes I think it is." Rose let out a deep breath and rested her hands on the top of her belly, which she had grown accustomed to doing lately. She then closed her eyes and looked at him,

"Alright, if you think it will help then go. But be careful, you aren't getting out of diapers that easily. You get back here no matter what, yeah?" Ordered Rose.

"Oh yes." Replied the Doctor, he then squeezed Rose's hand and ran his thumb over the back of her hand before running after Ida.

"All non essential Oods to be confined." Ordered Zach over the intercom. His voice blared throughout the base and was even heard over all the commotion in the drilling area.

"Capsule established. All systems functioning. The mineshaft is go. Bring systems online now." Ordered Ida in her spacesuit as she stood next to the lift that would take her hopefully safely down the shaft. Zach had now come to join his crew in the drill area floor. He needed to suit up, but then the Doctor already suited up approached him. With a winning smile and a space helmet under his arms he declared,

"Reporting as a volunteer for the expeditionary force." Zach rolled his eyes and groaned,

"Doctor, this is breaking every single protocol. We don't even know who you are."

"Yeah, but you trust me, don't you? And you can't let Ida go down there on her own. Go on. Look me in the eye. Yes you do, I can see it. Trust." Smirked the Doctor knowing he was going to win.

"I should be going down." Defended Zach to which the Doctor noted,

"The Captain doesn't lead the mission. He stays here, in charge." That struck a chord with Zach who then lamented,

"Not much good at it, am I?" Then trying to seem a bit more the man in charge he shouted to his crewmates,

"Positions! We're going down in two. Everyone, positions! Mister Jefferson! I want maximum system enhancement." Rose finally spotted the Doctor and with a heavy and nervous heart approached him.

"Oxygen, nitro balance, gravity. It's ages since I wore one of these." Noted the Doctor as he inspected his gear once again in front of Rose. Perhaps to put her at ease with his show of lightheartedness.

"I want that spacesuit back in one piece, you got that?" Ordered Rose with obvious worry on her voice.

"Yes, sir." Saluted the Doctor, who then gestured that he might like a hug. Rose obliged, and through his clumsy suit, and around her round belly, the two managed the closest hug that they could. The Doctor then silently asked Rose for permission to touch her stomach, she nodded her consent, and he placed his gloved hands over Rose's belly and said,

"I want you to take good care of your Mum until I get back little one. She'll need you for comfort." Rose found the scene touching especially since she knew that touch really wasn't necessary to communicate with their daughter for a Time Lord nor did he need to say it out loud. That had been for her benefit and the human gesture towards her and their daughter was appreciated. He was trying at more domestic and it was wonderful. What wasn't wonderful was that they would be separated under such a dangerous situation, but then again they were within spitting distances of a black hole, safety was relative. As a final gesture the Doctor took Rose's small hand into his gloved hand and kissed her hand like a man starved of air before looking her in the eye and putting on his bulky helmet.

"It's funny, because people back home think that space travel's going to be all whizzing about and teleports and anti gravity, but it's not, is it? It's tough." Noted Rose a little misty eyed, it was rather upsetting the thought of him going all the way down the dark pit in a cage suspended by a cable. The Doctor put on his space helmet and made sure it was on tightly, he didn't want the think leaking.

"I'll see you later." Smiled the Doctor to Rose, to which she smirked though obviously still upset at the prospect of him going on such a dangerous trip,

"Not if I see you first." Smirked Rose, trying to be more lighthearted than the situation allowed. Rose then felt a flash of bravery and tenderly grabbed the Doctor's space helmeted head and lowered it to her level. She then gave the glass where his forehead was closest to a sweet kiss for luck. How Star Wars of her. The Doctor then entered the capsule hanging over the mineshaft.

Over the comm. Zach's voice could be heard giving the countdown to ten as Ida stepped into the capsule and Jefferson closed the door behind her. He then gave the two a quick salute and stepped aside. Only Rose remained to sheepishly wave at the two of them, but mostly the Doctor, whose eyes never left him until he was out of sight.

"Eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. Release." Announced Zach from the control room. The capsule then lowered on its cable and Rose left to check their progress on a nearby console's screen. She had found the microphone to communicate with the capsule and clutched it tightly to her chest as she watched the capsule go down the shaft.

"You've gone beyond the oxygen field. You're on your own." Zach told the two occupants of the capsule, prompting Ida and the Doctor to turn on their life support.

"Don't forget to breathe. Breathing's good." Advised Rose to the Doctor and Ida over the comm. In a shaky voice. There was a little interference followed by Zach annoyingly commanding the blond,

"Rose, stay off the comm." To which Rose cheekily replied,

"No chance." The Doctor hearing this smirked a little at his Rose's spunk. Though this was only a minor distraction from the nail biting experience of the shaky ride he was having inside the capsule. Ida and he looked to each other for reassurance as they waited for something to either go completely right or completely wrong. Then suddenly, the capsule shuddered even more than usual and then dropped. The shaking went on forever it seemed and the Doctor found himself looking to the Rose's lip shaped smudge on the top of his visor as something to focus on besides the shaking. They had had such a tender moment and he would certainly like to have another one. No not like, would love, and he would have another opportunity to do so if he had anything to say in the matter. All of the rocking around was then followed by a loud 'Crunch' and even more shaking up at the base. Fearing the worst had happened Rose squeeze the comm.'s button and shouted into it,

"Doctor? Doctor, are you all right?"

"Ida, report to me. Doctor?" Zach also called out over the comm. equally worried for his crew member. For what seemed like minutes, but was really just a few seconds they waited in nail biting silence. Rose wondered if her baby could still link minds with the Doctor, even from this distance apart, and if she could and he was safe then she wished that she would clue her Mom in.

"It's all right. We've made it. Getting out of the capsule now." Stated the Doctor letting them know that they had reached zero point alive. Rose let out a breath that she didn't know she was holding in and began to relax a little.

"What's it like down there?" Asked Rose as the Doctor and Ida emerged from the capsule into a cavern of ancient rocks.

"It's hard to tell. Some sort of cave. Cavern. It's massive." Noted the Doctor as he shined his massive flashlight around.

"Well, this should help. Gravity globe." Explained Ida as she threw a luminous ball up into the cavern which lit up the cavern quite nicely.

"That's, that's. My God, that's beautiful." Gasped Ida in wonder at the obvious signs of civilization they had found.

"Rose, you can tell Toby we've found his civilization." Declared the Doctor over the comm. As the two explorers viewed the walls of the cavern that were carved into pillars and statues.

"Oi, Toby. Sounds like you've got plenty of work." Smirked Rose to Toby who brushed off Rose's statement with a simple,

"Good, good. Good." He then nervously looked at his hands some more. Rose wondered if he wasn't still shaken up by his brush with death. Still she was sure he would cheer up once something was brought up for him to look at. Rose then looked back to the screen.

"Concentrate now, people. Keep on the mission. Ida, what about the power source?" Zach reminded his crew over the comm., to which Ida replied,

"We're close. Energy signature indicates north North West. Are you getting pictures up there?" She really hoped that they were seeing the lovely sights that she was lucky enough to be the first person to glimpse in who knew how many thousands of years.

"There's too much interference. We're in your hands." Declared Zach. Too bad though Ida, well at least it would record to her helmet and Toby could look it over later. She was sure he was beside himself with excitement. Anyway, she was in charge now, so she better get started.

"Well, we've come this far. There's no turning back." Stated Ida. To which the Doctor groaned,

"Oh, did you have to? No turning back? That's almost as bad as nothing can possibly go wrong. Or this is going to be the best Christmas Walford's ever had." Ida wasn't sharing his humor right now and the rambling was getting annoying,

"Are you finished?" She asked to which the Doctor replied that he was.

"Captain, sir. There's something happening with the Ood." Stated Danny over the comm. from Ood habitation in a low voice.

"What are they doing?" Questioned Zach, he was already under a lot of stress and Danny was annoying him with his complaints.

"They're staring at me. I've told them to stop, but they won't." Reported Danny to which Zach rolled his eyes and in a condescending voice answered,

"Danny, you're a big boy. I think you can take being stared at." Not satisfied with his captain's response and feeling that this warranted more concern, Danny continued,

"But the telepathic field, sir. It's at basic one hundred. I've checked. There isn't any fault. It's definitely one hundred." Zach simply stated that what Danny was saying was impossible.

"What's basic one hundred mean?" Asked Rose in the drill area, obviously she was missing some important information.

"They should be dead." Said Danny grimly with a touch of fear in his voice.

"Basic one hundred's brain death." Explained Jefferson to the puzzled Rose.

"But they're safe. They're not actually moving?" Asked Zach for reassurance and clarity from Danny. To which Danny answered that they were not.

"Keep watching them. And you, Jefferson? Keep a guard on the Ood." Ordered Zach of Jefferson, who then ordered his officers to arms. All armed officers than began to carefully guard the Ood with their weapons drawn and pointing at them.

"You can't fire a gun in here. What if you hit a wall?" Shouted Rose at Jefferson and his recklessness.

"I'm firing stock fifteen. It only impacts upon organics. Keep watch. Guard them." Roared Jefferson back at her and at his fellow security officer.

Rose found the escalation in the happenings on the base quite worrying. If it wasn't already bad enough that the Doctor was risking his life at the bottom of this inhospitable planet, now everyone was pointing guns at each other…Well just at the Ood, but regardless anyone could end up getting shot at if things got any crazier.

"Is everything all right up there?" Questioned the Doctor. He was only catching snippets of what was happening on the surface due to feedback. Simultaneously it seemed Rose, Danny, and Zach were quick to assure the Doctor and Ida that things were fine, despite their obvious tension from the odd Oods. None of them wanted to distract Ida and the Doctor from their mission until they knew for certain that there was a problem.

The Doctor and Ida found their path between a pair of massive pillars. Dark and ancient, they led into an area scattered with rubble and a big round decorated metal door in the floor. It like everything else in this cavern looked old and ornate.

"We've found something. It looks like metal. Like some sort of seal. I've got a nasty feeling the word might be trapdoor. Not a good word, trapdoor. Never met a trapdoor I liked." Declared the Doctor over the comm..

"The edge is covered with those symbols." Noted Ida, who was obviously not as wary as the Doctor with their discovery. The Doctor had lived many years and seen many a temples and lost civilizations like this and experience had made him wary.

"Do you think it opens?" Asked Zach over the comm..

"That's what trapdoors tend to do." The Doctor snarked back. This was all too nice a set up. A path to an interesting looking door. In a hard to find location. Beckoning them like a mouse to a piece of cheese and he had no desire to have a trap sprung on him.

"Trapdoor doesn't do it justice. It's massive, Zach. About thirty feet in diameter." Observed Ida with amazement.

"Any way of opening it?" Asked Zach, very interested in their find. They had to find the power source to this place. There were more than enough people back home that would be angry if they didn't and Ood troubles without seeing it for themselves was not going to be an easy excuse to make.

"I don't know. I can't see any sort of mechanism." Answered Ida as she busily looked for anything that resembled a latch.

"I suppose that's the writing. It'll tell us what to do. The letters that defy translation." Declared the Doctor as he tried his best to search through his mostly defragmented brain for any hint to what the written language might be saying.

"Toby, did you get anywhere with decoding it?" Zach asked Toby via the communication system. At the mention of him Rose looked over to Toby, who was still hunched over shaking. The poor man, he must have been so looking forward to this moment, but clearly it was going to take him some time to get over nearly dying…or maybe he was close to Scooti and her passing was really upsetting.

"Toby, they need to know that lettering. Does it make any sort of sense?" Asked Rose of the man hoping that work might be a good distraction for him.

"I know what it says." Toby responded in a scared shaky voice as he clutched his head and sat in a tiny ball on the floor.

"Then tell them." Encouraged Rose. Jefferson was surprised by that statement. He had been listening to Toby go on about how difficult translation was for these runes or glyphs or whatever they were. You would have thought that once he translated them Toby would have been prancing about the base like he won a great battle!

"When did you work that out?" Jefferson inquired of Toby.

"It doesn't matter, just tell them." Rose said again, the sooner they got to the bottom of what was at the bottom of that hole the sooner she could have the Doctor back where she could see him.

To everyone's shock and horror, Toby then raised his head only to be covered in the letters that defied translation with eyes red and inhuman. He was covered in the symbols and looked like he might kill and eat everyone in the room if he pleased. Rose felt a sickening fear grip her heart which was made stronger by the same feeling in her baby's heart. Rose couldn't communicate to the baby like the Doctor, she got fleeting emotions at best on the occasion, but she had no problem this time sensing the fear added on to hers by her child.

"These are the words of the Beast. And he has woken. He is the heart that beats in the darkness. He is the blood that will never cease. And now he will rise." Declared Toby. Instinctually Jefferson drew his weapon at Toby and ordered him to stand down. Something was wrong with Toby, he didn't know what and it would be a damn shame if he had to shoot Toby. None the less Toby was freaking Jefferson out and he needed to get control of this situation right now.

"What is it? What's he done? What's happening? Rose, what's going on?" Asked the Doctor in alarm at what he heard through the comm.. What was wrong with Toby? What had everyone so excited up there? What unseen thing was possibly threatening Rose and the rest of the humans above?

"Officer, as Commander of Security, I order you to stand down and be confined. Immediately!" Ordered Jefferson trying to fight off any fear in him as he continued to gaze at the horrifying sight of what was Toby. Obediently Rose tried her best to explain what she was seeing to the Doctor below as her sweat soaked palm grasped the console's communicator.

"He's come out in those symbols all over his face. They're all over him." Was the best description that Rose could get out before Toby started talking again.

"Mister Jefferson. Tell me, sir. Did your wife ever forgive you?" asked Toby in an inhuman and sinister voice. Jefferson looked visibly disturbed by the question, but quickly recovered from the question by retorting,

"I don't know what you mean."

"Let me tell you a secret. She never did." Toby hissed back. Jefferson was now very upset and angry looking as he hissed,

"Officer, you stand down and be confined."

"Or what?" growled Toby in a challenging voice.

"Or under the strictures of Condition Red, I am authorized to shoot you." Jefferson threaten with his finger on the trigger of his gun.

"But how many can you kill?" Teased Toby before throwing his head back and opening his mouth. The symbols then seemed to leave him through his mouth and floated over to the Ood, who jerk to attention. The Ood continued to switch and their eyes glowed as Toby collapses onto the metal grated floor. No sooner did Toby collapse the Ood all throughout the base began to chant in unison,

"We are the Legion of the Beast." It was not a comforting effect on any human on the base as the Ood started to approach them.

"Rose? What is it, Rose?" Questioned the worried Doctor. He then turned to Ida "I'm going back up." Shouted the Doctor through his head microphone. Too much weird things were happening on the surface for him to focus on any silly expedition for a power source. His wife was up there and from the sound of it she was in trouble.

"The Legion shall be many, and the Legion shall be few." Chanted the Ood to the humans as Rose told the Doctor ,

"It's the Ood."

"Sir, we have contamination in the livestock. They won't listen to us." Jefferson reported to Zach very coldly in regard to the Ood. Clearly he didn't see them as people. Normally in such a situation Rose would feel obligated to yell at the man, but she was too busy trying to give the Doctor as much information as she could for him to go one.

"Doctor, I don't know what it is. It's like they're possessed." She reported to the Doctor through the comm..

"He has woven himself in the fabric of your life since the dawn of time. Some may call him Abaddon. Some may call him Kroptor. Some may call him Satan or Lucifer." Droned the Ood to their terrified human audience.

"Or the Bringer of Despair, the Deathless Prince, the Bringer of Night. These are the words that shall set him free." Continued the Ood as they started to approach Jefferson and Rose with their glowing orbs menacingly pointed toward them.

"Back up to the door! Move quickly!" Ordered Jefferson to everyone who was not an Ood in the area.

"I shall become manifest. I shall walk in might. My Legions shall swarm across the worlds." Rambled the Ood as Rose, Jefferson and another officer backed up towards the door. Rose was loathed to leave the comm. and to leave the Doctor in the dark but what other choice did she have? She was facing hostile aliens alone without the Doctor to save her. She was on her own, afraid, and very much not wanting to find out what the possessed Ood had in store for them. Rose backed up until she couldn't anymore.

"To the door! Get it open!" Jefferson ordered Rose who realizing she was the closest to the door began to open it so they could escape.

The true extent of what was going on above the Doctor could only guess as he quick walked back to the capsule only to be thrown about by what appeared to be an earthquake.

"Doctor, it's opening!" Shouted Ida as she watched the 'trap door' open up in segments into darkness leading to who knew where. The Doctor raced back to Ida's side to investigate all the while praying that whatever was happening would not add to their troubles.

"I am the sin and the temptation and the desire. I am the pain and the loss and the death of hope." Said the Ood in their never ending speech of despair as they were now almost on top of Rose and her companions.

"Get that door open!" Roared Jefferson at Rose who was doing her best to try to do just that, but with all the shaking and scary company it was proving difficult.

"I have been imprisoned for eternity. But no more." Roared the Ood as Rose fought with the stubborn door that would not open. The robotic voice simply saying door sealed as if to mock her.

"Come on!" Shouted Rose as she banged on the door.

"The Pit is open. And I am free. Bwahahahahahaha!" Laughed a sinister voice that caused everyone who could hear it to shiver. And everyone could hear it.

Author's Notes:

Could it be said that the Doctor has literally gone to hell in a hand basket?...Well a capsule any way. Stay tuned for the next exciting adventure. Sexy time to come soon. I'm cooking it up special for you.
