Both Rose and Haddock followed the Doctor through winding corridors, narrow stairways, a myriad of doors, and the odd flashing light; the only sound that they heard was the whirring of the screw driver and the echoes of their own footsteps. After fifteen minutes the Doctor stopped at a rather large and threatening door—it literally threatened them with words plastered all over its surface. The Doctor disregarded the threats emanating from the door, aimed his screw driver at a panel and after a few seconds, the door opened. The three walked in and gasped, the room had cylinder containers all along both walls, as well as along the back wall. As they entered the room Rose gasped and pointed at the first cylinder.
"Doctor, it's a cyber man." Rose said, the Doctor walked over and examined the container.
"It appears to be in either asleep, or in stasis." The Doctor scanned the container, and then moved to the next one which held a dalek.
"Oh this just gets better and better." Rose grumbled.
"The containers are all inter-connected; to open one you have to open all of them." The Doctor sighed, "We really don't want to open some of these." Rose looked at all the other containers, some of the creatures inside looked familiar, while others were new and looked highly dangerous. Haddock looked at the strange creatures inside their cylinders; one of the creatures looked like a man, but had grayish green skin and was covered in metal parts.
"Blistering barnacles, it's as if the alien collects these things." He muttered.
"I think that's exactly what the alien does." Rose said. Haddock continued down the row until he came to a tube that held a statue that looked like a crying angel. Confused, the Captain wondered why the alien would capture a statue. He glanced down the row a little ways and gasped, he ran down the row and skidded to a halt, there in front of him was a young boy with red hair, Haddock smiled when he saw the boy.
"Thundering typhoons, you're a hard one to find, my boy." He said, as he attempted to keep the excitement from his voice. The Doctor and Rose came strolling leisurely over; the Doctor put on a pair of glasses and scanned the cylinder with his screwdriver, and let out a sigh of exasperation—though he actually seemed happy, as though there was something particularly challenging about this situation which he was thoroughly enjoying.
"Is he dead?" the Captain asked, fear creeping into him.
"No he's just in some sort of sleep, or perhaps stasis like the others. The problem is the cylinders are all connected, to open one you have to open all of them. Didn't I just say that?" the Doctor said.
"You said it to me Doctor." Rose said giggling.
"So I did. Anyway there's probably a switch on the back." The Doctor scanned just behind the cylinder.
"Can't we just break it?" Haddock asked.
"No that would cause an alarm, or hurt the person inside." He said still scanning the back, a gun cocked behind them.
"Step away from the prison box, alien scum." A cold voice said from behind them. The three turned to see Edward aiming a gun at them; he had murder literally written in his eyes.
Does anyone know who the grayish green person with metal is? Anyone? No, well I guess that you will forever remain in the dark. :) MUWHAHAHAHAHA!
