The ship reappeared in a docking bay of another time-active planet, Archetryx. They were welcomed by silence. The planets inhabitants must have taken shelter somewhere, not that it would help if the Daleks contiued they're conquest of the universe.
The Doctor stood tall, looking out at the landscape of this new planet through a window at the front of the ship. Susan and Cal stood beside him in respectful silence as the elder spoke, "When this war is done with I think I'd like to travel."
Cal smirked, "With all due respect sir, your not a certified pilot." The elder glanced at him before looking back at the landscape. For a long minute Cal thought he would get a verbal thrashing but the Doctor chuckled.
"Susan can teach me! She's an amazing pilot!"
Susan rolled her eyes looking out at the landscape, "I wish you'd call it what it is."
Both men looked at her in confusion, "What?" Susan snickered tapping the window gently.
"It's a TARDIS. Time And Relative Dimensions In Space. Tardis." She explains and they nod slowly before returning to their exaimination of the landscape. They had landed on the planet to refuel the ship, after their last battle they barely had enough energy to get to Archetryx. The conversations in the control room were hushed and tense, no one liked the war but it was a Timelords duty to preserve the universe to observe it later.
"Whats that?" Cal asks pointing at a flashing light in the distant hills. He had gained the atteion of the rest of the crew who had now flocked to the window.
"Do a scan as quick as you can Fraiel." The Doctor ordered a tech who rushed to a computer console, "Make it planet wide. Hestella how long 'till full power?'
"Full in ten sir." A mousy woman replied after glancing at a scanner. The crew were bristling with nervous energy, checking and rechecking their stations for any flaws. Cal bit his lip as the 'lights' on the horizon began their approach.
"Confirmed Dalek presence! Ten kilometers from our current and approaching." Fraiel exclaimed and activity grew in the control room. Cal felt his pulse quicken, war was coming for them whether they liked it or not. He couldn't stop the surge of excitment. War had come to him!
