"I thought you were going to have some hi-tech plan that involved saving him and breaking out dramatically" Rose hissed
The Doctor offered a small smirk in her direction.
Aiden had been taken from them within seconds of their arrival.
Now Rose and the Doctor had guns pressed against the back of their necks and were being forced down a corridor.
"What about Aiden?" Rose hissed
Think what you want to say The Doctor's voice cut through into her mind That way they can't eavesdrop
Like this
Yup
Like I said what about Aiden?
And everybody else here he mused
Planning a mass break out are we?
Not sure yet. There aren't more than 15 people here not including us. 5 security people, 7 scientists and 3 victims.
Please don't get us killed
He grinned this time, but it instantly faded
This is Genesis one. All the computers in all facilities worldwide save to here. If I can destroy that hard drive most branches will be forced to close. The empire will crumble
Rose didn't reply but he could sense her worry and fear
I've only got to touch the server then we can go
Be careful
I'm going to make the guards behind us fall asleep
You're going to knock them out
He scowled at her as they were shoved down another corridor
Technically. You can let the prisoners out.
Behind them the 5 guards fell to the floor
"You could've warned me!" Rose yelped catching one of them
The Doctor looked vaguely confused, Rose just shook her head
"So how am I supposed to convince the psychotic scientists to let their prisoners free?"
"I'm sure I can change their minds"
"Literally" Rose sighed
"I'll find you when I'm done" he said pulling her into a quick hug "You'll be fine"
"You know you're fixated on Genesis?"
"It annoys me more than you can imagine"
"See you later then" Rose said stepping over a sleeping body
"Rose?"
"Yeah?"
"You want to go left"
She just glowered at him spinning on her heal to walk the other way the Doctor chuckled softly before jogging off into the opposite direction.
Rose carried on walking the corridor it was unnervingly clean and white. She pasted a door. There was a body led out on a metal table. Fixed down by leather restraints.
"Hello" she called cautiously, the person didn't move. Rose stepped into the room, a gasp escaped her lips as she noticed the folded masses of feathers beneath them. Angel like wings. Just like the Doctor's. She reached forward to touch the person's shoulder. It was ice cold. She walked around to see two bright emerald eyes staring sightlessly at the ceiling. Their skin was grey and the chest failed to rise and fall.
She was dead.
"Oh my god" Rose croaked her heart was in her mouth. There was a line drawn from collar bone to beneath the grey trousers. Rose stepped out backwards. She needed to save the others before they too were just lifeless corpses on a slab.
The Doctor followed the Wi-Fi signals swirling around the building. They were fixed on to a certain point. He was almost certain that that was where the main server resided. As he got closer the signals got stronger more forceful. He could feel the fire walls, the encoded messages swarming in and out, to and from other Genesis buildings.
This computer server was the foundation of their empire.
Remove the foundation and down came the empire.
Simple as that?
Rose sprinted down the corridor. At the end was a room full of people. Tentatively she stepped inside. 7 people stood around the room chatting. All wore white lab coats. None of them looked at Rose.
"Hi" she plastered on a fake grin. Still no one looked at her.
She looked across the room to see a dark glass wall. On the other side were prison cells.
10 of them.
Only 3 full.
"I'm just going to free them all. Alright?" she said in a man's face. He just carried on babbling about guanine increases in someone's DNA structure
"Right then" Rose walked across the room. Pressing her hands against the door imbedded in the glass. The door glided open. Rose stepped inside.
The Doctor pressed his hand against the key pad willing it to unlock.
The 12 number coded surfaced
678945261342
He feed the machine the code and the hydraulics powering the door hissed as the 10 inch steel door was heaved open
The Doctor stepped inside.
