Chapter 6
It took a while, but Jennifer had the Nitro-9 brewed up and ready before the Daleks arrived. She made ten cans and was brewing another batch as they spoke.
"Okay, the plan is to rally the locals, tell them to gather the Daleks all in one place and blow them up. How many will you have when you're done?" the Doctor asked.
"Twenty. It's nearly done," Jennifer said.
"Okay, so we'll be fighting off the Daleks with twenty cans of Nitro-9. Now, we need to work at rallying the locals," the Doctor said as they left the TARDIS.
"We can go shout it out on the streets with sandwich boards!"1
"You do realize that if we go out to the streets with sandwich boards saying 'The Daleks are coming,' they'll think we're mad!"
"Oh, right."
"Instead, we'll-"
The news-o-gram came on outside.
"Breaking news: Dalek ships have been sighted above the city of New New York. Estimated time of arrival is in about twelve hours. We ask that you stay indoors, and if you have guns, concentrate on the eyestalk if a Dalek enters your home. Otherwise, turn off all exterior lights and stay away from windows."
"Well, I was wrong… They do believe Daleks are still around," the Doctor said.
"Good job, Doctor. Anyways, do we have permission to use the Nitro-9?"
"Should be fine as long as we don't blow up buildings that have people in them."
"Okay, we have twelve hours to prepare. We could just get the Rani, each take a few cans and blow up ships? Take the TARDIS and blow the ships up with the Nitro-9!" said Jennifer.
"Well, that might work, but we'd be risking our lives. Are you sure you want to take the risk?"
"Yeah, I'm sure. How long has it been since we left the hospital?"
"About five hours."
"Hello, girls," the Rani said from behind the Doctor and Jennifer.
"How much did you hear?" asked the Doctor.
"Everything after the news-o-gram," said the Rani.
"Okay so we don't have to catch you up," said Jennifer.
"Actually, I have one question. What's Nitro-9?"
"An explosive. Pack it into a deodorant can, throw it at something, you've got ten seconds before it detonates. I made twenty cans; that's twenty grenades."
"I suppose that will work, if we can get out of the way in time," said the Rani.
"How many ships are out there?" Jennifer asked.
"One. But it's a relatively big one, so I'm taking my TARDIS to one end to blow it up, and the Doctor can take his to the other end to blow it up."
"Sounds like a plan, but Jennifer is going with you so you don't screw us over," the Doctor said with a glare.
"Fine. Come on," the Rani said to Jennifer, who grabbed ten cans of Nitro-9 in a reusable shopping bag from 2014 and looked around.
"Where's your TARDIS?" Jennifer asked.
"It's the stone panel between those stores over there," the Rani said, pointing. She walked over to it and opened the door, allowing Jennifer to enter first, then following her.
"How does your TARDIS do that? Blend in and stuff?" Jennifer asked as the Rani started hitting controls.
"There's a component in the machine called a Chameleon Circuit. In the milliseconds between landing and materialization, the TARDIS analyses the surroundings and picks the thing that would fit in best. The Doctor's TARDIS has this component, too, but it's broken, so it defaults to a police box from 1960's Earth."
"Interesting. Well, can you establish contact with the Doctor?"
"Yes, I can, I was just doing that," the Rani said as she pushed buttons on her TARDIS. The screen on the wall lit up with a video feed from the Doctor's TARDIS, showing the whole of the console. The Doctor was walking around the console, flipping switches and turning knobs.
"Are you ready, Doctor? I'll be materializing on the bow, you go to the stern. I'll give the signal to throw the bombs, then we'll rush into our TARDISes and get out as quickly as possible. Is that understood?"
"Who said you were in charge?" asked the Doctor.
"I discovered the Dalek fleet first, I'm taking command," the Rani said.
"Fine. You said the stern? Okay, I'm going," the Doctor said, both Time Lords hitting knobs and flipping switches, dematerializing simultaneously while keeping the communication stable.
"TARDIS DETECTED MATERIALIZING BY THE BOW," a Dalek said to the command.
"TARDIS DETECTED MATERIALIZING BY THE STERN," another Dalek said to the command.
"THE ONE BY THE STERN IS THE DOCTOR'S TARDIS."
"THE OTHER TARDIS IS PILOTED BY A TIME LORD CALLED THE RANI."
"EXTERMINATE THEM," said the Dalek in command.
"Heads up, you daft old pepper pots!" shouted a thick South Wales accent as a deodorant can landed in the middle of the group.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" a Dalek shouted at the girl.
"Run!" Jennifer said to the Rani, who ran with her away from the group before the can exploded, engulfing the Daleks in flames.
"How will this blow up the ship?" the Rani asked once they got back to the TARDIS.
"Bomb the support structures," Jennifer replied.
"Sounds feasible. Give me a can," the Rani said. Jennifer handed her a can, and the Rani materialized the TARDIS in the support structure room. The Rani opened the doors, and threw her can, Jennifer's can following it. The Rani quickly moved her TARDIS to another part of the ship, the center, and threw the bombs at the support structure.
"Doctor, bomb the support structures!" Jennifer said.
"Got it!" said the Doctor at the other end of the line. She rushed out of her TARDIS, threw the remaining cans, and ran back in, moving the TARDIS before it got caught in the resulting explosion.
"Go to outside the Dalek ship!" the Rani said to the Doctor as she materialized the TARDIS outside of the Dalek ship and opened the doors. The ship exploded in a big ball of fire, but not before the familiar blue police box was seen materializing next to the Rani's TARDIS.
"We did it!" Jennifer said with a huge smile.
"Okay, go back to New Times Square, I want my companion back," the Doctor said.
The two TARDISes materialized next to each other simultaneously at the corner of New Times Square. Everyone stepped out of their respective TARDISes.
"We did it!" Jennifer said, running up and hugging the Doctor.
"Yes, we did, Jennifer!" the Doctor said, then turned to the Rani.
"Yes, we did it," the Rani said.
"If I catch you screwing everything up again, I'll drop you off on the planet where you were meant to serve your exile!" the Doctor said.
"Okay, fine, I'll watch my step," the Rani said.
"Goodbye, Rani," said Jennifer, who then boarded the Doctor's TARDIS, the Doctor following. The Doctor waited for the Rani to leave before she dematerialized herself.
