Jack stared at the Doctor in disbelief as the Time Lord's words replayed over and over in his mind. He wasn't sure that he had heard him right because there was no way that the Time Lord that he respected so much would give anyone permission to abuse his body that way. Yes, he had witnessed the Doctor being tortured and used by the Master during their long year aboard the Valient, but he had only done that in order to save the Earth. At least that was what Jack thought at the time, now he found himself thinking back to that time trying to figure out if he ever witnessed the Doctor letting the Master use his body. He pushed the thought aside for a moment deciding that he could dwell on it later over a bottle of whiskey as he turned his attention once more to the restrained Time Lord.
"What do you mean you gave him permission to?" Jack asked more calmly than he felt. The Doctor rolled his eyes up to meet Jack's and the Captain saw a haziness behind the once alert stare. It was obvious the drugs were currently affecting his ability to reason and it was unfair to question him in this state. It was also the only way that they were going to get answers.
"I asked him to punish me for my wrongdoings and he agreed," the Doctor answered.
"So you asked him to drug you into compliance. You asked for him to drug you with an aphrodisiac and allow strange men to use your body for their pleasure?" Jack questioned him. The Doctor's eyes closed briefly again but returned once more to the uninterested stare as he attempted to shrug.
"That explains my erection," the Doctor informed him. Jack's mouth fell open upon hearing the Doctor's answer. He opened and closed it a couple of times unable to form words.
"Once the aphrodisiac clears your system it should go away, but let me know if it gets uncomfortable in the meantime and we can see about taking care of it for you," Martha spoke up. The Doctor nodded. "You also have an antibiotic and a painkiller currently in your system. Do you know why he gave you those?"
"No," the Doctor replied. His tone hadn't changed during the entire conversation and he yawned loudly, smacking his lips. A thought seemed to occur to him and he scrunched his eyes as his brow furrowed. "Maybe. Something about not wanting me to get an infection or be sore unless he caused it. I don't know." Martha exchanged glances with Jack again. She hadn't examined him genitals or arse as she had wanted his permission before doing such an invasive exam. Now she was kicking herself for not following her instincts.
"Do I have your permission to examine your genitals now so that I can make sure you aren't injured?" Martha questioned.
"If you want to," the Doctor answered. He didn't squirm or fight as she stood pulling the blankets down in fact he looked bored as she pulled his pants down. His erection sprang free and stood prominently from his body. A quick visual examination showed that he looked almost human in that aspect except for his testicles were smaller and closer to his body. He had no bruising or anything else worrying. Pulling on a pair of gloves, she put her hand between his legs, carefully spreading his arse. She ignored the fact that his erection twitched as she touched him, knowing that he couldn't control it as she examined him. Again there was no bruising or tearing. Or anything else that she found concerning.
"Visually, I'm not seeing anything that would cause me concern," Martha stated. She pulled off her gloves throwing them aside. Standing, she went over to the small portable ultrasound machine pulling it over. She applied the gel to it, then carefully ran it along the side of his groin being careful to avoid his erection as she checked for anything internal that could be the reason the Master gave him the painkillers and she refused to do a digital internal check with the aphrodisiac in his system. Because he was being cooperative, she unstrapped the restraint covering his abdomen laying it aside. She moved the ultrasound wand up further to check his kidneys and liver looking for anything unusual.
"What was that?" Jack questioned as he watched.
"What was what?" Martha asked as she paused turning to look at Jack.
"Back a little to the left and down," Jack told her. He watched as Martha followed his instructions. She hadn't been that far left as she checked his abdomen heading towards his kidneys and liver. Still, she listened to Jack moving the wand towards what he thought he saw. That's when she saw it too. She adjusted the wand, now trying to get a good image of what they were seeing. Buried deep within the Doctor's abdomen was a small fetus. He wasn't very far along, but the fetus all ready had developed a strong heartbeat. It was too early to be a true heart or to tell if it would have two hearts like it's daddy but it was there. She wondered briefly why the blood test hadn't found the pregnancy but then again she wasn't looking for it at the time. She had only been looking for what drugs were in his system and not the naturally occurring hormones of a pregnancy.
"Doctor, did you know that you are pregnant?" Martha wondered as she found her voice. The Doctor rolled his eyes to look at the screen. He still had the same bored look in his eyes as he studied the small fetus.
"Not again," He sighed.
"What do you mean, not again? You mean this has happened before?" Martha asked. He nodded and rolled his head back to the center of the pillow.
"The Master gave me a pill that took care of it," The Doctor answered. Martha's lips were thin as she set the wand carefully aside. She wiped the gel off the Doctor's stomach, then replaced the strap over his abdomen. Standing she looked at Jack who hadn't moved during the entire time she had been examining the Doctor.
"I need to get some air. Do you want me to bring you anything when I come back?"
"A bottle of whiskey and a glass," Jack advised her.
"I'll see what I can do." She left the medi-bay in a hurry with neither Jack or the Doctor watching her. The Doctor obviously didn't care as he couldn't hold a thought with the drugs he was on. Jack, on the other hand, was already planning his trip up to UNIT where he was going to get rid of the Master for good this time.
