Planet of the Ood Part 2
Rose had been walking with her husband and her friend for almost ten minutes. The Doctor had got bored just following the tour group and he decided he wanted to go off on the beaten track. Rose not having any arguments, hoping this situation wasn't as bad as the last time the pair of them had been in when it came down to the Ood. So that's how she found herself looking up at the two moons present in the sky, gleaming thought the long fingers of snowy clouds which was sending sparkling and dainty snowflakes to the ground. The thousands of flakes being sent into a frenzy due to the wind, the sky a bright illuminating white. Rose pulled her coat's large collar closer around her neck to protect her from the biting chill of her surroundings. She had curled one of her arms around her waist the other holding her collar as she looked up at the sky squinting. The Doctor and Donna had walked further towards a barbed wired locked gate. Rose started walking again, joining her friends when she noticed the Doctor holding his Sonic Screwdriver to the lock. Donna had her mouth open as she stood next to the time lord. Her coat still undone as she looked further into the compartment, the Doctor still looking down at what he was doing.
"Ood Shift 8 commencing." A recorded voice sounded causing Rose to look around her, her torso moving slightly, her hand still holding her collar while the Doctor looked up from what he was doing with his mouth open before he slowly sniffed and swung open the door. "I repeat, Ood Shift 8 commencing."
The Doctor looked behind him as the three of them sneaked into the section. The Doctor watched as Rose slowly turned and started to close the door as quietly as possible, closing them into the part of the complex which was closed to visitors. When Rose turned she continued to warp her arms around her body to prevent herself from getting cold. Her hands were clinging onto the end of her thin sleeves to keep her hands warm, the collar firmly wrapped up and around her neck while the rest of her coat was clinging onto her body. The Doctor couldn't help but find himself being attracted to her. The coat he had brought her flattered her features and figure in all the right ways he couldn't help but notice how beautiful she was. He smiled to himself as he noticed her eyes falling back to the sky, enjoying the feeling of the snowflakes falling onto her slightly flustered cheeks, her hair blowing slightly in the wind.
After a few minutes the three were walking hurriedly around the facility. The Doctor was out in the front, the lapels of his trench coat were bellowing behind him while Donna was looking in front of her. Rose taking cautious glances behind her as they began to climb cold metal railing stairs and onto a metal grating balcony. The Doctor walked over to the corner of the railings, placing his hands on the metal which was encrusted with snow and ice. His bushy eyebrows in a frown. Donna coming to stand next to him, her own mouth hanging open, her fingertips placed to the metal, while Rose stood next to her friend, her mouth hanging open as she took in the sight of the Ood being marched. She moved forward slightly preparing to go and help a fallen Ood which had fallen to its knees, the Doctor not failing to notice the small gasp which exploded from her lips, a look of helplessness and sadness filling her eyes and heart. The Doctor noticed a man in black walking over to them, a black whip in his hands. This man was Kess, the head of security. He walked over to the Ood which was weakly kneeling on the ground
"Get up. I said, get up!" He shouted before hitting the Ood with his whip. Donna and the Doctor looking on with their mouths open, a frown present on their faces while Rose was looking on sadly.
"Servants? They're slaves." Donna whispered sadly
"Get up!" Kess demanded again as the Ood slowly and painfully claimed his footing on the ground again "March!"
"Last time I met the Ood, I never thought, never asked..." The Doctor said disheartened looking down at Donna, his hands still present on the railings. Donna was looking up at him while Rose continued to watch the marching Ood.
"That's not like you." Donna voiced concerned, her eyebrows in a frown, her mouth open as she looked up at the Doctor.
"I was busy." The Doctor said sadly as he looked back to the Ood. His face in a frown, eyes heavy and sad as his cheeks were pushed out from his teeth being pushed together "So busy I couldn't save them. I had to let the Ood die. I reckon I owe them one." The Doctor stated as he moved his eyebrows into a raised positions, his mouth now hanging open, his teeth together slightly to the left. But before anyone of them could say something else Halpen, Ryder and an Ood called Sigma walked across the open space. Ryder must have been a scientist, wearing a white lab coat. Halpen being the boss in a snap pin striped suit very similar to the Doctors.
"That looks like the boss." Donna whispered leaning over to the Doctor's shoulder slightly while Rose continued to look down at them
"Let's keep out of his way. Come on." The Doctor said darkly before guiding Donna and Rose from the front of the warehouse.
Rose constantly had a steady ache in the back of her head. It didn't hurt it just caused a large amount of discomfort. It made her slightly on edge which didn't help the situation. Watching the Ood being treated like the way they were was causing her to become distracted and loosing herself in her memories. She had seen something like this before. During the time when she was travelling on her own in search for the Doctor. She had met a race called Seekers. A very powerful and talented race. They were a group of people which meant the woman had extraordinary powers. They could call on large amounts of energy causing beams of white light to appear from their hands, could call light balls in to their hands. They were telepathic and telekinetic. While at the same time they could see the past the present and the future. But this extraordinary gift came with a price. It took a lot of concentration and energy to be able to control their gifts. They needed to establish a way of protecting their mind. This problem resulted in the 95% of Seeker woman to loose their minds. They had been another casualty of the Time War. The surface of their planet having been devastated which caused them to live underground, their government corrupt and terrified which meant the people that had control of their minds were slaves. Rose had tried to free them to save them. But in the end her help had caused their destruction.
The Doctor knew something was up with Rose. He could feel her mixed up emotions via their link and his own concern was begging to build. Every now and then he would get a glimpse of what she was thinking. To the time she had spent on Seeker, or the flashes of images from the time the human race had been slaves to the Master. Rose had become very withdrawn, her heart pouring out to the safety of the Ood, her wanting to help them was as much of a priority than finding out what the circle was all about. But at this point in time the Doctor had his glasses pressed to his nose as he walked out in front of Donna and along way away from his wife who was doddering at the back. One of his arms swinging at his side, his trench coat falling around him while his suit clung to his skinny form. But the Doctor had only taken a few steps away from Donna who suddenly placed her hand to her mouth and whistled very loudly. Rose snapped her head towards her friend and smiled slightly while the Doctor ducked and turned on his feet to look at her who was standing next to a door.
"Where did you learn to whistle?" The Doctor questioned as he walked over to her, moving his coat from his leg and placed the map into his trouser pocket while his glasses went into his suit jacket pocket. He moved to the door and pulled out the sonic screwdriver while Rose finally arrived at their side. Her arms folded across her chest.
"West Ham, every Saturday." Donna whispered slightly exasperated. The lock on the door finally clicked open and the door slide open in front of them.
The Doctor and his friends walked into the warehouse. The Doctor placing the Sonic Screwdriver back into his pocket while his long legs strode into the room. Rose looking around at her surroundings while Donna looked around while moving in a circle. The Doctor slowly flung the lapels of his jacket behind him and placed his hands into the pockets on his suit trousers as the trio continued forward. Rose didn't fail to noticed a large metal claw moving along a track in the ceiling lifting and moving the containers which filled the warehouse.
"Ood Export. You see?" The Doctor chimed as he leant down slightly down at them, his finger pointing towards the claw. Rose looking up at him from his sides, a small twinkle of curiosity in her eyes, her arms still folded across her chest while Donna was looking at the claw next to Rose. "Lifts up the containers, takes 'em to the rocket ships. Ready to be flown out all over the three galaxies."
"What, you mean- These containers are full of..." Donna whispered, not able to put to words what she was thinking. Her eyebrows raised, mouth open while the Doctor looked down at her with a frown
"What do you think?" Rose said to her a small sad smile on her face while the Doctor walked past her and opened the nearest container as the three of them stood in the doorway. The Ood were all standing inside in a perfect formation.
"Oh, it stinks. How many of 'em do you think there are in each one?" Donna asked, her hand pressed over her nose and mouth. Rose coming to stand next to the Doctor, her eyes glistening with unshed tears as she looked at just how bad the slavery truly was.
"A hundred? More?" The Doctor said, his eyebrows raised, eyes wide, mouth held in an oval shape.
"A great, big empire, built on slavery." Donna said in disgust
"It's not so different from your time." Rose said in a neutral tone of voice, her face showing no emotion. The Doctor and his Wife still looking at the Ood while Donna frowned and looked over at Rose with her face still showing her disgust.
"Oi, I haven't got slaves." Donna exclaimed
"Who do you think made your clothes?" The Doctor settled his eyebrows still raised, his mouth pursed together.
"Is that why you travel round with a human at your side? It's not so you can show them the wonders of the universe, it's so you can take cheap shots." Donna snapped
"Sorry."
"Well, don't." Donna snapped again before muttering her last part of the sentence slightly light-heartedly "Spaceman." The Doctor simply smirked, Rose smiling slightly not noticed by the other two. "I don't understand, the door was open- Why didn't you just run away?" Donna said again, this time it was directed straight at the Ood.
"For what reason?"
"You could be free." Rose said gently, a comforting smile on her face.
"I do not understand the concept."
"What is it with that Persil ball? I mean, they're not born with it, are they? Why do they have to be all plugged in?" Donna asked, looking up at the Doctor who was looking down at her before the pair of them turned back towards the Ood whose own attention was paid towards the Doctor.
"Ood, tell me, does "the circle" mean anything to you?" He asked, his words coming through his teeth, eyebrows raised.
"The circle must be broken." All the Ood chimed together. Their translator balls lighting up a line at the time. Their voices joined together causing Rose's hearts to beat faster.
"Whoa, that is creepy." Rose muttered, moving back slightly, her feet adjusting themselves out of anxiety.
"But what is it? What is the circle?" The Doctor voiced loudly, his mouth hanging open as he spoke, his eyebrows forever raised.
"The circle must be broken."
"Why?"
"So that we can sing." But suddenly an alarms started to blare which caused the three of them to jump. The Doctor snapped his head in the direction of the noise. Donna moving from the container while Rose shifted closer to the Doctor.
"That's us, come on!" The Doctor chimed as he started to run through the maze which was the shipping containers. He had grasped hold of Rose's hand who was not having trouble keeping up. Her experience of running at the Doctor's side had paid off. They ran down one of the corridors before turning right down another section and then a hard left. Donna trailing at their heels. The Doctors and Rose's hair bellowing in the wind at their speed. The pairs small forms being flung forward by their legs. Their converses or boots clattering against the concrete floor. Rose and the Doctor looked to their lefts on one of the walls before not taking any notice. Their small gaze at the wall unnoticed while Donna stopped, the others just kept running.
"Doctor! There's a door!" Donna yelled but as the door opened it revealed the sight of guards which were rushing in. Donna moved her head back as the troupes circled around her
"Don't move!" She simply moved her hands up in surrender while the other two skidded to a stop when they realized Donna wasn't with them.
"Where have you gone?" The Doctor muttered as he turned to look behind him,
"Stay where you are!" A guard shouted in a distance. Rose was looking around her before she started to tug the Doctor forwards noticing the guards which had found them.
"Doctor" She yelled before the Doctor snapped his head in the direction of the guards. His head nodding slightly
"Good point" He muttered before smiling at Rose and the pair of them bolted from their spots.
"Donna where are you?" The Doctor yelled as he continued to run through the maze of the containers as his wife ran at his side. But suddenly the Doctor skidded to a stop, retracting his hand from his wife's while he turned around to look behind him. His face in a frown, chest heaving, his trench coat flapping around his ankles, while Rose was looking around her. Her face showing signs of concern, eyebrows raised, breathing rapidly, her coat clinging onto her. That's when she pressed herself to one of the containers, her ear pressed to the container as she listened. She looked over to the Doctor waving her hand towards him, one of his eyebrows raised, his mouth hanging open, chest heaving as he looked over at his wife, suddenly jumping to her side and pressing his own ear to the container, maybe together they could find Donna. But after a small pause the Doctor grabbed hold of Rose's hand who squeezed it out of comfort. They started to take slow and cautious steps forward. The pair of them looking around in caution. But unexpectedly they heard the sound of metal machinery coming to life. The metal claw moving towards them
"Typical" Rose muttered before both the Doctor and Rose ran from their spots and around the corner of a container the Doctor trying for the lock as the claw advanced. The Doctor pulling Rose away from the claw as they moved their bodies away from it. But the Doctor once again tried the container. Rose rolled her eyes before grabbing hold of the Doctor and started to run
"Oh come on" Rose stated over her shoulder as they ran again, the Doctor's coat trailing behind them, the claw all the while chasing them. They slowed slightly as they came to a junction, both of them looking up at the claw before the Doctor snapped his body right, pulling Rose's body with him. The claw was gaining on them. But as they skidded around the corner the claw hit one of the containers due to the amount of momentum, the two time beings ducking slightly. They turned another corner again but this time the claw plummeted to the ground, knocking several canisters to their side, it narrowly missed the Doctor who stumbled slightly at the force, Rose guiding her husband through the mess of the canisters.
The pair of them was still running through the corridors. Rose and the Doctor now running separately at each other's side. Their arms swinging at their sides as there bodies continued to move quickly forward. They were twisting and turning through the containers. Rose smashed her body to one of the containers while the Doctor looked up at the claw, the pair of them swiftly moving onwards. The Doctor bouncing off one of the containers with his foot as they turned a corner again, the pair of them beginning to tire. But once again the claw was pushed to the ground causing the Doctor to place his arm around his wife as they both stumbled at the force of the vibrations, canisters flying to the ground behind them. They both turned around as they ran backwards, their bodies pressed to a container, both of them breathing heavily as they looked at the claw gaining on them
"Alright?" The Doctor breathed heavily, his eyebrows raised, hair falling over his forehead while Rose's was lying down her back
"Never better" Rose asked, her own words coming out breathlessly.
"Well this is a first time we've been chased by a claw" He cried "but I'm sure there are better ways to go?" The Doctor asked as he looked down at Rose, both of their chest heavy from their lack of breath,
"We'll go down fighting, yeah?" Rose said as she looked up at him
"You bet" He said, his own face turning down to look at her
"Together" Rose enquired, her hearts fluttering in her chest.
"Yeah" The Doctor said grasping hold of her hand, both of them clinging onto each other in comfort.
"I'm so glad I met you" the Doctor said with a small smile
"Me too" Rose said, her own smile showing her teeth, the smile the Doctor loved so much. So even in the middle of this nightmare, they still had a brave and loving smile for each other.
"Shall we go?" The Doctor asked as the claw was coming to close for comfort
"I reckon so" Rose said with a smile. She pressed a kiss to the Doctor's cheek before they once again bolted from their spot. The claw finally finding them, their bodies propelled into containers as they tried to gain their balance, but once again the claw fell to the ground causing Rose to fall into one of the containers, her form falling to the ground while the Doctor had fallen into a roll as he landed on the ground. He grasped hold of Rose's hand as they both for to their feet and continued to run forward. But luck wasn't on their side as the claw had caused them to run and jump over some barrels. The pair of them loosing their balance which in turned made them land on their backs. The Doctor's arm was placed around Rose's upper back underneath her. They looked at each other, their eyes full of sadness as they prepared for what was about to happen. The pair of them shifted closer, Rose's hands clutching the lapels of the Doctor's jacket, her eyes closed as her face was pressed to his chest, the Doctor's head curled into his wife's neck as his arms curled around her body. The pair of them not looking as the claw slowly gained on them. But both the Doctor and Rose stirred as no pain came upon them. They both opened their eyes and peered at the metal claw which was positioned just above them. They slowly crawled from their position on the floor and both stood up looking at the claw. The Doctor and Rose looked over at each other, their faces moving into relieved smiles before they both crushed into each other in a huge hug, the pair of them laughing in reprieve.
The guards had grabbed hold of Rose and the Doctor, the pair of them separated as two guards took each one of them. They were being taken towards Kess, the man who had been chasing them for them to hear Donna's voice. Even through she was still inside, they could still hear her voice
"Donna?" Rose stated loudly
"Doctor get me out!" Donna replied loudly.
"If you don't do what she says, you're really in trouble. Not from me - from her." The Doctor voiced, his eyebrows raised while both him and his wife was positioned in front of the man.
"Unlock the container." Kess ordered for some of the guards to flank the container and standing guard of Rose and the Doctor. They opened the doors for Donna to rush over to the Doctor and clasped her hands around his neck
"Doctor!" She whispered while they were still holding each other for them to pull away
"There we go, safe and sound." The Doctor said comfortingly and happily as he smiled down at her.
"Never mind about me, what about them?" Donna yelled as a group of red eyes Ood were leaving the container, they went over to the guard standing by the door and its translator ball went to his forehead killing him,
"Red alert! Fire!" Kess bellowed for him and the guards around him opened fire against the Ood. Rose looked around her to see all the guards were busy. She tugged on the Doctor's sleeve for him to look at her, she cocked her head towards the exit and the three of them slowly made their escape, just in time as more red eyed Ood started to make there way towards the guards "Shoot to kill!"
The Doctor and his friends had escaped the warehouse while Solana had escaped with them. They were running back the way they had come and far enough away before stopping for breath, the Doctor's hand still firmly placed in Rose's their breath being seen in the snowy environment.
"If the people back on Earth knew what was going on here..." Donna muttered so everyone could hear, her chest heaving heavily while the Doctor and Rose looked around the corner
"Don't be stupid. Of course they know." Solana stated, her face neutral like it was an every day occurrence.
"They know how you treat the Ood?" Rose said unhappily from her position next to the Doctor. After all; this woman was the one who had made Rose uncomfortable in the first place
"They don't ask. Same thing." Solana snapped over at Rose, glaring at her slightly.
"Solana, the Ood aren't born like this. They can't be. A species born to serve could never evolve in the first place." Rose snapped over at her, turning around to talk to her, proving her knowledge on things like this. The Doctor was smiling smugly unknown to everyone as he listened to his wife. Knowing what had happened earlier.
"What does the company do to make them obey?" The Doctor suddenly asked before Solana was about to argue again, knowing that he wife would have been able to take every argument this woman could throw at her.
"That has nothing to do with me." She argued again, trying to defend her own back, Rose was simply rolling her eyes over at her
"What, because you don't ask?" The Doctor shouted harshly
"That's Dr Ryder's territory." Solana defended, her words coming out of her teeth
"Where is he? What part of the complex?" The Doctor asked holding out the map towards her, Rose and Donna now on the look out "I could help with the red-eye. Now show me!" The Doctor shouted, but Solana simply looked at them. Her eyes searching the angry faces of the Doctor and Rose. And after a long paused she suddenly yelled to the guards.
"They're over here! Guards, they're over here!" The Doctor simply huffed a sigh of frustration before once again taking hold of Rose's hand and running off. They all suddenly skidded to a stop and changed direction and the site of spotting some guards coming after them.
"This way!" The Doctor yelled before stopping outside another warehouse, his breathing heavy. But suddenly the uncomfortable feeling in Rose head became very unbearable. She placed her hand to her forehead, her eyes becoming distant as she placed her hand to the Doctor forearm. His hands stopping the search for the sonic screwdriver and looked down at her distance expression.
"Can you hear it?" Rose whispered up to him, and that's when he heard it. The singing. The Ood. But suddenly Rose jumped out of her thoughts "We didn't need the map. We should've listened!" Rose snapped, kicking herself mentally in the head as she realised the mistake. Her head full of song, both her and the Doctor suffering with conflicting emotions as they were shared together via their connection. The Doctor then hurriedly used the sonic screwdriver, shoved the two of them into the room and flung his own form in the room before snapping his body around and locked the door. Replacing his screwdriver into his pocket he then turned around to face them.
"Does that mean we're locked in?" Donna panicked when the control panel sparked
"Listen. Listen, listen, listen, listen." The Doctor said quickly as he turned to face the three of them. One of his eyebrows raised, his mouth hanging open while he motioned the pair of the, to go down some steps which showed them some cages. But as they got to the bottom the Doctor was frowning all of a suddenly, his mouth hanging open as his face was scrunched up, Rose had pressed her hand to her forehead as the un comfort increased ten fold. Donna looking at the pair of them in confusion as she looked at the pained expression which were present on their faces.
"Oh, my head."The Doctor stated pained, he felt like his head was about to explode
"What is it?" Donna asked, looking at them with a frown on her face, her own mouth hanging open.
"Can't you hear it? The singing?" Rose said gently, her hand still on her forehead, her eyes squinting through the pain slightly. But that's when the Doctor pulled out a torch and shone it through one of the cages to shown the trio some Ood huddled together. The Doctor had a frown on his face before he pulled at a switch and a light turned on in the cage. The three of them walking over to the cage as the Ood suddenly bolted upright, their eyes wide in fear as they looked at them. The Doctor looking on with a frown, Rose was holding a comforting expression, even if her head was hurting, while Donna looked on in confusion.
"They look different to the others." Donna said as they watched as the Ood readjusted their positions to be crouched closer together
"That's because they're natural-born Ood. Unprocessed. Before they're adapted to slavery. Unspoiled." The Doctor said as they squatted in front of the cage. The Doctor in the middle while Rose and Donna was on either side of him "That's their song." The Doctor said sadly, his eyebrows raised, mouth hanging open, his form visibly shaking slightly while Rose was looking at them sadly, her eyes filled with unshed water while Donna continued to look at them confused
"I can't hear it."
"Do you want to?" The Doctor asked, turning to face her
"Yeah." She said as she turned to look over at her friends
"It's the song of captivity." Rose warned her, a single tear falling from one of her eyes. The Doctor simply looked down before grasping hold of Rose's hand and squeezing her hand in comfort. Rose simply looked at him sadly
"Let me hear it." Donna said to them. Rose and the Doctor simply nodded before Rose continued to look over at the Ood, several tears finally falling while the Doctor spoke to Donna.
"Face me." He said while Donna positions herself in front of her friend who was placing his fingertips to her temples, both of them closing their eyes "Open your mind. That's it. Hear it, Donna... Hear the music." The Doctor voiced before Donna gasps, pulling away from the Doctor when her mind was filled with such music, music filled with such pain and meaning, Donna couldn't help but face the Ood, the species of alien which was looking at her, their eyes moving over to her and her friends. Her face littered with tears which were streaming down her face. Rose and the Doctor suffering as much with the song as she was.
"Take it away."Donna said as her voice begun to break. The Doctor simply turned to face her, his eyebrows in the same spot but his eyes were full of emotion.
"You sure?"
"I can't bear it." Donna nodded for the Doctor to repeat the process "I'm sorry." She said as she spoke over to the Doctor and Rose. The three of them looked back over to the Ood who were still huddled together.
"It's okay." The Doctor said very gently while turning his head toward the Ood again.
"But you guys can still hear it." Donna said over to them. Rose simply looked down, a tear falling from her cheek to her jeans while the Doctor nodded, his eyebrows raised as he looked through the bars sadly.
"All the time." He said gently before looking down and grasping hold of Rose hand as the pair of them needed some sort of comfort. The Doctor slowly rose to his feet once again, this time aiming the sonic screwdriver to the lock as he tried to get into the cage. At that same instant there was a noise from the level above, the sound of a thumping against a door. Donna snapped her head towards the ceiling above, Rose and the Doctor still looking at the shuffling Ood.
"They're breaking in." Donna cried, her eyes holding moments of panic
"Ah, let 'em." The Doctor muttered before swinging the door open and the two time lords entered the cage sitting down on their knees in front of the Ood who were trying to shuffle away.
"What are you holding?" Rose asked gently with a comforting and friendly smile on her face. Her husband next to her with his eyebrows raised his eyes soft and gentle as he let his wife talk to them, knowing she would be better at the task, as well as the fact she seemed to get a small amount of comfort from helping them. One of the Ood simply raised his torso and looked over at her, blinking, looking at her shyly. Rose simply smiled over at him gently
"Friend." Rose said leaning a little closer to him. "Doctor, Rose, Donna, friend." Rose said motioning her hand towards each one of them, her voice soft and trusting, her face never leaving the one of a smile, never once making any sudden movements to startle the Ood "Look at me. Let me see." She said gently, her hand held out, motioning towards what the Ood was cradling in its hands. "That's it. That's it, go on. Go on." Rose said to him comfortingly again. The Ood started to shuffle forward, his eyes never leaving Rose and the Doctor, eyes blinking as Rose encouraged him forward. The pair of them leaning back slightly as he held up his cupped hands right in their faces. He removed his top hand to reveal...
"Is that-?" Donna said in miss belief.
"It's a brain. A hindbrain." The Doctor whispered to not startle the Ood who was openly showing the Doctor who had his eyebrows raised his mind "The Ood are born with a secondary brain. Like the amygdala in humans, it process memory and emotion. You get rid of that, you wouldn't be Donna anymore. You'd be like an Ood. A processed Ood." The Doctor said over to her. His head shaking as he explained what he was saying to her, his hand motioning towards her and then back to the Ood during relative parts.
"So the company... cuts off their brains." Donna said angrily, her words coming out of a gritted teeth mouth
"And stitches on the translator." Rose said sadly, trying not to scare the Ood which was shuffling slightly closer to her. She simply looked down and then back up to him as he looked at her curiously. The Doctor always watching how the Ood reacted to his wife.
"Like a lobotomy. I spent all that time looking for you, Doctor, because I thought it would be so wonderful out here. I want to go home." Donna managed to say. The Doctor continued to watch the Ood his anger rising, his eyes watering with tears due to the Ood's song, his mouth open but he suddenly moved his head towards Donna, stunned by her wish but he didn't have the time to react as Halpen and the others arrived they could head a guards voice talking to his boss.
"They're with the Ood, sir." But the Doctor simply stood up and slammed the cage shut. Rose noticing the Ood moving back out of fear as Halpen and the others walked straight to the walls of the cage
"What are you gonna do, then? Arrest me? Lock me up? Well, you're too late! Hah!" The Doctor cried happily as he smiled from the other side of the bars, his hands in his pockets while he smiled over at the others who were looking on in frustration
To be continued.
