After walking a couple blocks in silence they found Rod's ride, an old Chevy, and both got in before swinging the creaking doors shut. Rod broke the silence noticing that Andrew had yet to tell him something. "Where are we going, dude?"

Andrew pulled out the slip of paper from his pocket that Rose had given him containing the address of their destination and handed it to Rod.

"Bet. There's no turning back, Andrew."

Andrew simply shook his head in affirmation as Rod turned the ignition before pulling out into the mostly empty street. They were like two soldiers riding into battle and Andrew had no idea what to expect. He didn't even know if he would survive to see tomorrow. At least he had Rod's support no matter what went down.

At last, Rod pulled the car to a stop in front of an abandoned building. "The old television studio for channel nine. My pop's friend used to work there, actually. Kind of a city landmark. I bet…"

Andrew wasn't listening because he was staring at a familiar site. The blue box stood there parked next to the building. Only the doors were curiously left open and there appeared to be some type of small object lying on the ground in front of it. Something wasn't right here. The thought made Andrew frown gravely.

"What are you looking at?"

"Huh?"

"If you want, we can…"

Andrew cut his friend off. "I'm going in. Just stay here so we can get away quick if we have to."

Rod reached his hand out and the two of them embraced shortly before Andrew pulled himself out of the vehicle. "Give em hell!" It was now or never time!

On his way inside, Andrew noticed that the small object sitting on the ground in front of the open-door blue box was a purple bracelet and he knew exactly who that bracelet belonged to. Rose had been wearing it which means that it must have fallen off. He could only hope he wasn't too late.

Looking toward the door Andrew saw a man holding a gun seemingly guarding it. A front entrance was out of the question but along the side of the building a window luckily remained ajar. He'd never broken into something before other than his own apartment the day he locked his keys inside. Today, Andrew was breaking all the rules and he didn't have a clue what he was doing. Part of him actually kind of enjoyed the experience strangely.

He pushed the window up a little bit to fit inside, but he had already made his first mistake. An alarm began to blaze throughout the building signaling an intruder. Andrew could run away now and still live to see another day. Instead, he crawled inside finding himself in a room with a large table. Likely a meeting hall for what probably was no longer functioning as a television station.

Commotion began to break out inside the building as the alarms turned off. To Andrew's advantage these creatures all looked human like himself so blending was less of a challenge than he had thought it would be. Again, Andrew took a chance and opened the door leading into the hall.

People passed him not giving him a second glance. Clearly, something bigger was happening. Andrew wore a straight expression much like everyone else hoping to blend in and not give away his intentions. The plan so far was working. Not that he had a plan once he found out what was going down.

The foot traffic appeared to all be heading down the hall so like everyone else, Andrew followed. He went up a stairwell to the second floor and then went in the same door before entering a large room filled with activity.

Computers lined the walls with television screens all over the place playing different channels without sound. Andrew continued looking around seeing technology he'd never begin to have a guess what it was. Two very large vats sat off to the side each containing a motionless green lizard-like creature very similar to what Erica had turned into. Standing right next to them, as if in preparation for something terrible, Andrew found the two strangers that had asked for his help. The Doctor and the Wolf had their backs bound to a pole back-to-back and were gagged with duck tape.

What was he going to do now? He had to act natural and not give himself away. The prisoners seemed to be thinking the same thing as their eyes briefly met and no stirring or commotion was done by them to give Andrew away. Clearly they were counting on him, not that his allies had much choice. Unfortunately, for all of them he was spotted.

"You!" The booming voice sounded familiar as a familiar body turned around to possibly interrogate Andrew. It was the guy that had yelled at him last night when this had all started. Did the boisterous fellow recognize him? Shock seemed to creep into the eyes of the Doctor and Rose while Andrew pointed at himself with questioning eyes.

"Yeah, you! What's your name?"

"Andrew, sir."

"Well, Andrew, stop screwing around and help Robert over there coordinate the aligning rays!" The man was obviously a hot head and Andrew took a breath of relief inside not showing it publicly.

"Sorry, I kinda got…

The man cut Andrew short. "No more half assed excuses! I swear, we are really behind schedule because some of you are flaking and not staying to task! Don't you want this?" He gestured at a nearby window overlooking the city and pointed to it. "Don't you want them?"

The man looked around for confirmation and it was returned with nods and a few yells of affirmation. Even Andrew joined in not knowing what they were referring to. He went over to the burly man that had been identified as Robert and whispered. "What flew up his butt?"

Robert just shook his head in annoyance. "See those coils over there?" The assistant pointed over to the long rounded objects stacked against the wall behind his trapped allies. "Bring me a couple, will you?"

Andrew made his way over to the Doctor and Rose and was greeted with a quiet moan from the blonde muffled by her gag.

He whispered to the captives making sure not to show eye contact. "What do I do?"

Andrew couldn't cut away the duct tape or remove the piece over their mouths. It seemed the others were watching his every move not trusting him. If he gave himself away then all hope would be lost. An unintelligible answer began to come by way of the Doctor. "Mmm mmm…"

Robert's voice boomed over the response as he pointed at the coils. "Hey kid! They're right over there!" The man then muttered, "Good for nothing little…"

Andrew turned and went to collect the coils. He had come to be the hero, but he had no plan. He was completely out of his element and the only people that could do something were tied up. All Andrew could do was play along now as he whispered to himself, "What the hell am I going to do?"
