Clara looks around at the massive chamber. There was a large round table in the centre of the room where the High Council were seated. They were all dressed in long red robes, which Clara had memories of from some of her previous echoes. Clara had a quick giggle to herself thinking about what the Doctor would look like dressed in them. Around the wall of the chamber were symbols which were in Gallireyan so Clara couldn't understand any of it. The room was certainly impressive. The Doctor didn't look impressed at all. He walked straight into the room towards the centre table. One of the Time Lords, probably the leader rose to his feet and walked over to the Doctor holding out his hand. "Lord Doctor at last we meet" The Doctor nods and removes his jacket placing it in the mans outstretched hand "Thank you don't get it creased, hang it up somewhere safe" He walks past him and went to the table. Clara went to follow. One of the Time Lords spoke. "I'm sorry Doctor but your companion is not allowed in here she'll have to wait outside" The Doctors eyes whipped round to the man who looked down a little. The Doctor spoke in a clear voice. "If you want my help then Clara stays in here with me. I wouldn't trust you to look after her" The Time Lord nods. "Okay she can stay. The Doctor nods and sits down with Clara.
"So who are you lot anyway I've never seen you here in my life. But you do seem right for the job you all look like idiots" The Time Lords exchanged glances before the leader speaks. "I am Bokkus; this is Gramnon, Lankrian and torpan." The Doctor nods at them. "Okay you're idiot 1, you're idiot 2, you're idiot 3 and you're idiot 4." He points to each of them as he says it. Bokkus sighs. "Doctor please, we're all here to work together maybe you could try using some manners." The Doctor looks at him. "Yes you're right I'll try to do that idiot 1. Now where's Rassilon I will not work with that fool, I want him clapped in irons and kept out of my way while we do our work" Bokkus looks to him, then looks around at the rest of council exchanging looks as Torpan speaks. "Lord President Rassilon has gone missing; he was never seen after the final sanction during the last days of the Time War. But I'm afraid to say that the Master escaped. He stole a crashed TARDIS which contained a data slice" The Doctor rolls his eyes at them. "Get with the times idiot 4 I've already dealt with her, she was converting the dead of the human race into Cybermen." They all look at each other as Bokkus speaks in a confused tone of voice. "Did you just say she? You mean The Master regenerated into a woman?" The Doctor nods. "That's exactly what I'm saying and oh it's not the Master anymore. Now she calls herself Missy" Clara looks up at him confused as she speaks for the first time since they entered. "So you're saying Missy used to be a man? Wow you Time Lords really do change a lot don't you." She laughs a little. The Doctor ignores her. "Right never mind gossiping like primitive humans let's get to work. To get Gallifrey out of this dimension and back into the normal universe it's going to take a lot of work. We need to get a dimensional shift of the planet's surface in order to break free of the zones of this universe but we have to do it without causing any damage to either of these universes. So come on you've all been sitting on your backsides for hundreds of years you must have ideas even you morons can think of something." Clara talks in a small voice, mainly looking at him. "This is probably a stupid idea but you moved it here with those cube things, so why can't you just do it again to move it back? The Doctor turns and looks at her. "You're right Clara, that is a stupid idea I have n calculations of this universe so next idea now."
Bokkus looks at the Doctor nervously as he speaks. "Well Doctor we have a plan but it's dangerous. There are crystals that have the infinite amount of energy to move anything including a planet. If we plug them into the Eye Of Harmony it should be enough to get Gallifrey in a state of flux where you can use your TARDIS to bring us back." The Doctor stares at Bokkus for a minute as he thinks before he talks. "Idiot 1 that could actually work. With Gallifreys size and the population surface we'd need approximately 8 crystals, so the question is where are these crystals?" Bokkus looks even more uncomfortable. "They um they're in the caves of the dark wastelands." The Doctor frowns even more. "The dark caves? Nobody knows what creatures are in them, nobody knows the radiation levels, you'd have to be mad or a fool to go in there. But a team of Time Lords could get in there and find the crystals. Well I'm hoping you've already done it." The whole table looks down a little. "Umm well we were waiting for the right time and person." The Doctor frowns annoyed. "You bunch of cowards you've had hundreds of years to find those crystals but you've sat down and waited for me to come and do it for you." Bokkus sighs and looks him dead in the eye. "Doctor we know you're the only one who can survive those caves and the only one who could get to the crystals. Please Doctor we need you." The Doctor sighs and stands up glaring. "You already know what my answer is don't you, you know I've always been fascinated by those caves. I'll be back with your crystals just make sure everything else is ready. Clara lets go we've got work to do." He storms out of the chamber with Clara following him. As they made their long walk back to the TARDIS they discussed their options of how to get into the most dangerous cave in the universe.
