Chapter 5 – The Mastermind

For the past 2 days, Tasha and the Doctor were in the TARDIS just barely keeping still. At first they went to the edge of the universe to have the best cheesecake in one of the Doctor's favorite restaurants. Then they went back to the year 1900 to see the first zeppelin flight over Lake Constance near Germany. During their adventures, they both talked about all they could think of finding out more about themselves, and at each chance that he could, the Doctor would try and figure out why the Collector was after Tasha, and who wanted her and Tasha couldn't help but feel like she was being watched. The Doctor finally figured out how to find out what and why anybody was after Tasha in the first place. But to see if his calculations were correct, he had to do something that she would probably hate him for, if only for a little while. He had to use Tasha as bait, the Doctor knew she wasn't going to like it but that was the only way to truly see if he was right, he wouldn't usually do this, but he had no other choice.

"Tasha, you will probably hate me for this, but I have to do it. Just know whatever happens, nothing will happen to you okay?" Tasha got tense, but understood, she didn't know how, but she felt like she could trust him, and only after meeting him 3 days ago, then going on adventures with him she felt she could trust him. But she had to ask, just to be sure.

"How can I trust that you will be there, if something goes wrong?" The Doctor finally walked towards Tasha and looked her straight in the eyes, causing Tasha to blush again.

"Just trust me…..I will not let anything happen to you, you're my friend" Tasha felt secure in his gaze and as fast as it started, it ended and he went back to tinkering and started telling Tasha the plan.

"Now…Tasha, what I need you to do is go back to your apartment and stay there. There maybe someone or something coming in the middle of the night to try and get you so lock your doors. Make the apartment look like nothing has happened the past 3 days. If you see someone at your window, make sure that you crouch down low and try not to let them see you, because when they do, the chase begins for them, ok?" Tasha was stiff and nervous.

"Oooooo….KKkaaayyy….." Tasha started to shake.

"You are going to be fine, when this happens imagine that you're on stage hearing the audience call your name…." Tasha started to calm down.

"I think I can do it…." Tasha said chokingly

"That's the spirit!" the Doctor said showing that he had confidence in her.

"Now remember what I told you…oh! And you will need this" The Doctor handed her a key.

"hey it's my house key…but what did you do to it?" Tasha asked confused.

"Nothing….you'll need it to get into your house…" The Doctor said mockingly.

"Oh…." Tasha said still confused. The Doctor laughed.
