Chapter 8

He turned around and started walking really fast. Selina and I followed him down they hallway. We made a lot of seemingly random turns.

"Do you know where you are going?" I asked the Doctor.

"Of course I know where I'm going. If you've seen one Dalek ship you've seen them all. They are brilliant creatures, not as brilliant as me thought, but predictable."

"Ok but if you know where we are going the why are we headed for a dead end?" Selina asked.

"It's not a dead end."

"What are you talking about?" Selina asked

"Come on, just go with it." I told Selina. "Let's see what happens."

We reached the dead end. The only thing that noticeable at the dead end was a strange half sphere on the wall. The Doctor reach into his pocket looking for something, but he couldn't find it.

I reached into my pocket, pulled out the sonic screwdriver, and asked him, "Is this what you are looking for?"

"Yes. Thank you." He said as he started sonicing the half sphere. "You know Erin you puzzle me. Sometimes you speak and act like you are British, but sometimes you sound and act so American."

"I grew up in America and moved here when I was eighteen. Sometimes the American me comes through."

"That explains it." He said as the wall lurched back and slid open. Inside was a room full of nothing but wires.

"So what is this place?" Selina asked.

"It's the alternate energy port for the ship's mainframe."

"So basically it's a back door into the ships computer." I said.

"Yes," he said excitedly.

"Now how do we reverse the spheres," Selina asked.

"We have to unplug the right wires to force a reversal on the spheres." He said.

"How long have we got?" I asked.

"About thirty seconds before the Earth goes BOOM!"
