Donna POV

"Alright then, put 'em up!" A woman came out from behind a set of shelves holding a gun. "Hand in the air and no funny business." She spoke with a high-pitched Manhattan tone, we all raised our hands willingly. "Now tell me you shmucks, what've you done with Laslo?"

"We haven't done anything with 'Laslo', we don't even know who he is! Are you gonna tell us?" I asked, I'd figured out the gun was a prop almost as soon as I'd seen it and didn't think the petite woman in front of us would pull the trigger even if it was real. She went in to her dressing room, still yielding the gun and sat down, the three of us followed her.

"Laslo's my boyfriend. Or at least he was my boyfriend until he disappeared two weeks ago. No letter, no goodbye, no nothing. And I'm not stupid, I know some guys are just pigs but not my Laslo." She said, waving the prop around carelessly as she spoke. "I mean what kind of guy asks you to meet his mom before he vamooses?"

"Yeah, might just help if you put the down." The Doctor said cautiously, pointing towards the gun.

"Doctor." I tapped him on the shoulder and he looked at me. "It's not a real gun."

"Hey, how'd you know that? It's only a prop, it was either that or a spear." She threw it down on the empty chair beside her and looked at me.

"It was kind of obvious, most 20th-century actresses don't have access to real guns for a start, anyway what do you think happened to Laslo?" I asked, walking straight in to the room and past the Doctor.

"I wish I knew, one minute he's there, next ZIP! He's vanished." She stated, emphasizing the 'ZIP' with her hands.

"Sorry, what was your name again?" The Doctor asked, probably hoping it wasn't someone really famous.

"Tallulah," she said with pursed lips. "Three l's and an h."

"Right we can try and find Laslo, but he's not the only one. There are people dissapearing every night." The Doctor said, pulling the brain-like thing we'd found in the sewers out of his pocket. "Trust me, everyone's in danger. We just need to find out exactly what this is because then I'll know exactly what we're fighting."

Tallulah turned her nose up at it and just nodded before the Doctor ran off to find various things he needed from the props department.

Doctor POV

I'd been working on finding out what this thing was ever since Solomon left to go back to Hooverville, I managed to get everything I needed and discovered that it had been artificially produced.467-989.

989. I thought, trying to remember the what planet of origin that type was. No, it can't be. I told myself mentally.

"Skaro." I ran straight to stage-left, hoping Donna would still be there, I found Tallulah with all the other women.

"Where's Donna? Where did she go?" Asking frantically, hoping she hadn't got herself in to trouble already.

"I don't know, she ran off stage." She said and I was about to check for her in the dressing rooms when I heard her shout my name in the way she only ever did when she scared - really terrified. I ran straight after her, hoping to catch her but no such luck. I grabbed my coat and headed straight down in to the sewers, followed by a nosey Tallulah.

"No, no way, you're not coming." She continued coming down the ladder despite my argument. "There's nothing you can do go back."

"Look whoever's taken Donna, they could've taken Laslo, couldn't they?" Why do I always hang around with such strong-willed women? I asked myself.

"Tallulah, you're not safe down here." I said, knowing it was pointless.

"Then that's my problem. Come on, which way?" She said before stalking off in the wrong direction.

"This way." I said before starting down the right alley.

We didn't speak for the majority of the distance, then Tallulah started asking questions and I had to pull her in to a corner when I saw a Dalek, it wasn't safe to have her with me.

We saw another pig-hybrid and it turned out to be Laslo, he'd escaped before they took his mind but he'd still been turned part-pig in his appearance. He agreed to take us to 'the masters' - The Daleks - and when we found they were 'seperating' the newest group of people. I sent Tallulah to go back up to the theatre, and she agreed eventually, saying that she knew the way.

Luckily both Donna and Frank had been sorted as superior-intelligence so we found them both, I joined the line in which they were walking and the pig-hybrids didn't notice. Both of them sounded pleased to see me - especially Donna. We were taken to the Dalek laboratory and Donna decided she couldn't hold her tongue, and demanded to know what they planned to do with her.

We watched as 'Dalek Sec' opened his casing and came out of it, looking like a humanoid-dalek and declared himself the first Human-Dalek.
