Sorry I haven't been on in sooooooooooooooooo long, but I'm on now, and I've got the last chapter too! Actually, possibly not last ^.^
With a final tremor, the Tardis landed.
"I've put her in camo mode so we won't be spotted, now, any ideas on how to get into the control room?"The Doctor asked.
"I thought you had a plan! John yelled.
"That was a clever lie to get you in TARDIS."
"How was that clever?!"
"I'm the Doctor, everything I say is clever!"
"How- uhg, you're worse than Sherlock."
The Doctor spun around to look at him and smiled.
"I know."
"Couldn't you just fly the Tardis into the center of the ship?" Sherlock asked, cutting off John's reply.
"Shielding, very high-tech, obviously stolen, prevents the old girl from getting in. Although..." The Doctor said, his face brooding, "If one of us were to sneak in and shut down the shields, River or I could fly her straight in."
"Oh, and I suppose there's just going to be a big button in the center that says 'SHIELDS'!" John said irritably.
"Exactly!" The Doctor said. John looked at him in disbelief. "Sontarans, not exactly the smartest race in the universe."
"Very well, I shall go."
"Not alone you're not. Don't even bother arguing, it's not going to work." John said. Sherlock smirked.
"I assumed you would say as much. Doctor, how exactly do you get into the control center?"
"Oh, easy just follow the big signs that say CONTROL CENTER."
"Seriously?"
"Again, Sontarans, not the next Einsteins..."
Sherlock sighed, shaking his head slightly as he pull John out the door. The Doctor stared at it with a longing puppy-dog look on his face.
River rolled her eyes. "Oh go on then, I'll fly her in. I'm better anyway."
"Thankyouthankyouthankyou! I love you sweetie!" The Doctor yelled as he shot out the door to catch up with John and Sherlock. River turned towards the console when he stuck his head back in.
"Oi, you are not!"
"Oh just go!" River shouted back, laughing.
"Humph!" The Doctor went back outside.
"Oh, that crazy husband of mine, it's a mystery how she ever put up with him." River said, her thoughts drifting back to a certain red head...
"Wow, you weren't kidding." John said, staring at a large sign that pointed towards the control center.
"Nope. They are actually stupid enough to get lost in there own ship."
"How exactly did they evolve then? I mean surely Darwin's theories must be valid for other species as well." Sherlock asked.
"Large guns and REALLY hard armor. Also, a cloner helps."
"Ahh..."
"Umm, guys, hate to interrupt, but how exactly do you open this door? You'd need three fingers!" John asked, almost yelling.
Sherlock stared at him incredulously, then made a Vulcan sign with his hands and opened the door.
"Or you could just do that. That works too."
Rolling his eyes, Sherlock walked through the door, turned a corner, walking straight into a Sontaran with a gun pointed at his head.
"Human intruder! You must die for the Sontaran race!"
"Wait! Don't shoot! No shooting! Look, its me, the Doctor, don't shoot!" The Doctor yelled, pushing in front of Sherlock.
"Doctor! You have locked us here! Release us or die!"
"Gah! Why isn't this working!" shouted John as he tried to fire his gun, and failing.
"Your pathetic human weapons are useless! Surrender!"
"Shhhhh!" said the Doctor, putting a finger to his lips. Suddenly the sontaran couldn't speak.
"So it does work on other species." He turned to John, "Don't bother, the copper on the bullets expanded, could fix it with the sonic, not that there's much point, their armor is bullet proof. In fact, a Sontarans only weakness is a little vent directly on the back of their neck, you have to shoot the gun AT A VERY PRECISE ANGLE!" The doctor said. Sherlock glanced at the walls, calculating those very angles. He grabbed the gun from John.
"Doctor!" The Doctor buzzed the sonic over his shoulder, and Sherlock shot the wall. Everyone dropped as the bullet ricocheted, hitting the Sontaran just right, knocking it out.
"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL WAS THAT?! I COULD HAVE BEEN SHOT! AGAIN!" John yelled.
"I calculated the angles precisely, I knew exactly where it was going to hit."
"Then why did you drop to the ground?"
"... in case I missed."
"What?! I swear, you are going to kill me someday Sherlock, and then where will you be."
"Anyway," The doctor said, interrupting, "Let's get moving before others find him, shall we? That would be rather unfortunate."
"You're right. Come along John. This way."
"Hey, that's my line!"
"Doctor!"
"Hmph. Coming!"
"Here we are, the main control room." The Doctor said, sonicing a door open. He went straight to the control panel, gesturing for John and Sherlock to follow.
As soon as they stepped inside the door behind them shut, locking.
"Hah, Doctor! You have walked right into our trap!" A sontaran
said through the intercom. "Release us from this ship or you will never leave!"
The Doctor shrugged. "All right then, I can wait. or, even better, since 'm in the MAIN CONTROL ROOM I'll just open the doors from here!"
"Then you shall never see your TARDIS, or your precious companion again!"
A screen to the left turned on, showing River, cornered by six Sontarans pointing guns at her, the TARDIS behind them.
"Is that so?"
"Doctor, you have to save her. Just let them go!" John whispered next to him.
"Just watch."
River winked at the screen before pulling out a gun and shooting Doctor smiled, running to the control panel, hitting a big red button that said SHIELDS.
"You aren't worried at all?" John asked.
"Nope. My wife could give Houdini a run for his money."
"Have you met him? Could you take us to him? Wouldn't that mess with time? How does that work?" Sherlock asked.
"Not now, Sherlock."
"But I'm curiou-"
The materialization of the TARDIS cut Sherlock off. River ran out, a tube filled with Huon energy trailing behind her."
"We only have a couple of minutes before they wake up, we need to get this set up NOW!"
The Doctor grabbed the tube, connecting it to a panel underneath the control circuits.
"Sherlock! Help River circumvent the lock codes!"
"How can I help?" John asked.
"Just, don't touch anything!"
"But- oh never mind."
"There!" The Doctor yelled, popping out from under the console.
"We're good here too!" River said.
"Well, then, come along! It would be better not to get caught in the implosion."
They ran into the TARDIS.
"Oi, don't forget to close the doors, there might be a draft. Or I suppose in this case an anti-draft."
"I'm pretty sure that's not what it's called." Sherlock argued, closing the doors.
"God, I will never get used to this." John said, staring at the TARDIS. "So that's it, right? They're gone?"
"Yep! Sontarans are gone, Earth's saved, all in a days work." The doctor said, grinning. "Now, all of time and space, what's next?"
"First is my place, sweetie, only two mad geniuses per TARDIS, remember."
"N- hang on! Who said we're going with you? We nearly got killed." John shouted.
"And? That happens at home as well, this is just much more interesting." Sherlock said.
"You're insane!"
"You're turning down the chance to go anywhere in all of time and space! Please?" he added.
"I'm going to regret this. Fine! But if I get killed, I will shoot you from the grave."
Sherlock smiled. "Doctor, we're going to London! 1870!"
The Doctor ran around the console, typing in a location.
"Oh! Here!" he said, tossing the screwdriver to Sherlock. "Just point and think."
"Why are you giving it to me?"
"Because, you said yes."
