Tesla 9

Chapter Two Shada:

By Mathieu Leader

Cyber-Leader 54 shouted darkly "Tell him the secret Warden Phillips!"

Captain Philips shuddered "The secret is that this ship is not a ship but rather a prison planet," then the Cyber-Leader disappeared in a blue light

"It appears that model of Cyber-Leader was a manifestation of your guilt from I've deducted!" the Doctor said excitedly

"Yes indeed it is Doctor," Captain Brooks said mournfully

Captain Brooks pulled out a silver pistol he then said tearfully "I must perform the final act Ace," he fired a single silver bullet charged with blue energy directly at Ace.

The Doctor screamed "Ace!"

The elderly form of Ace said tearfully "You where brought here for a reason Doctor, and it'll become apparent so this is goodbye,"

Ace had now been reduced to a pile of ashes and from her ashes came the bullet speeding backwards and hit Brooks in the chest electrocuting him.

The Doctor screamed "Death keeps shadowing me!"

Indeed I do Theta Sigma indeed I do," said a gentle voice

From the walls floated a woman dressed in a purple robe with a white theatrical mask with red lips.

"What brings you her Mistress Death?" the Doctor asked with rising fear

Mistress Death replied curtly "I bet your wondering what I'm doing here, even us Eternals wonder what's in that room is it old or something new."

"Stop speaking in riddles Death?" exclaimed the Doctor angrily with bitterness,

Mistress Death replied calmly "Do you want a clue?"

"Yes I would like that very much Mistress Death?" the Doctor spoke calmly

"The room contains the Creator who shall face the Founder; both their worlds will burn in the fire of war. Then death shall come to all as your race shall fall..." she said grimly

"But the Lords of Time shall reside in the mastermind!" she exclaimed darkly

"A Time War," the Doctor said shuddering with cowardice

Death replied sadly "Not a Time War but the Last Great Time War death shall come to all even for us that are in eternity,"

"It appears you've sent me here Mistress Death?" The Doctor spoke calmly

Mistress Death said sternly "You must bring the Creator out of his prison or you too shall be trapped here forever,"

The spectral figure of Mistress Death went back through the metallic walls of the ship.

As the spectral figure of Mistress Death, went into the metallic walls came a dark gaping hole.

The Doctor was suddenly compelled to go into the dark gaping hole.

The Doctor had now found himself in a large metallic room where enchained in long silver chains was a bronze circular domed chair, sitting in the chair was a bony figure dressed in a black suit who had leathery brown wrinkled face with milky white eyes.

In the centre of the figures forehead is a shiny blue eye.

The figure said in a sharp demanding quavering voice "Who is this man?"

The Doctor said softly in a tentative tone "I have come to save you Davros?"

"Why would a Time Lord come to save their greatest nemesis?" said Davros darkly

"I'm not on Time Lord Business but my visit came from a higher power," the Doctor said calmly

"A higher power than the Time Lords could there be such a thing?" said Davros humorously pondering this possibility

"Yes there is, I have been sent to free you to give you a chance to play in the Last Great Time War?" said the Doctor with pride

"Ah what kindness in this life you have, nobody has displayed this much kindness since my mother was alive. I was meant to have been aborted as I did not match Kaled Genetic Sustainability Ratings. But my mother let me life and from that very day I made it my life's goal to make the Kaled's supreme as Dalek!" Davros shouted tearfully

Then the Doctor pulled out his screwdriver, and then a blue light came from the screwdriver.

In a whirr the chains from Davros's domed chair, snapped triumphantly.

Davros said darkly "Shall I tell you the real name of Tesla Nine?"

Go on then old enemy?" the Doctor said curiously

"Shada," Davros said breathlessly

"Davros are you responsible for the energy disturbances?" the Doctor demanded darkly

"Oh no the energy disturbances come from some source of a much more sinister origin than me," Davros said unusually innocently

"Where does it come from then Davros?" said the Doctor frightened

"Why you are frightened Doctor... Is it because Doctor that a perpetrator of genocide can act so innocent, or is it that this mystery infuriates you because cannot solve who or what is causing these energy anomalies?" Davros spoke grimly

"Yes it is Davros, can you give me a clue because I don't have the foggiest on what is happening here!" the Doctor said exasperatedly

Davros pressed a red button and a white card flipped from the chute that appeared in the centre of Davros's chair.

The doctor caught the smouldering playing card in his hands,

"I will say one thing Doctor before I go that this card will reveal the identity of who is causing the anomaly?" Davros spoke grandly.

Then Davros suddenly disappeared in a giant gold orb of light

The Doctor turned over the card revealing the suite of the card which was an Ace of Spades.

At the revelation of the suite of card the Doctor was more perplexed but then realisation dawned on him.

He said in a hoarse whimper "Ace did this, but she's dead... I saw her die,"
