Somewhere in the midst of the tremors and piercing squeals, both had fallen unconscious. When the Rani and Doctor came to, the TARDIS had finally landed. They knew not how long they had been here, where they were or what time period.

The Rani groaned and clutched her forehead. The Doctor, more alert, looked around with tears welling up. His TARDIS, his home, was destroyed beyond all recognition. He bit his lip as he lurched for the Rani, roaring, "What did you do? How could you do this to my TARDIS? Why? You vile imbecile! You can't go anywhere either now! We are both stranded here!"

"Silence you fool! We both know I can fix this mess. Your 'TARDIS' was a heap of trash anyway. I will get it back into the best shape it's ever seen..." the Rani growled.

Her head seemed to be splitting right open from the searing pain she felt, and the Doctor's pathetic whining was not helping in the least.

"You had damn well better," the Doctor sputtered, calming down, "I have never seen it in such a wretched state..."

"Ah yes, and so it shall be restored. Now make yourself useful and go retrieve me some fresh wire and tools. The sooner I can fix it the better. Before you leave though, answer me this Doctor, were you on to me long before you mentioned it and set up that bat as a way to counter me?"

"Not in the least," the Doctor replied while standing up, "You know the TARDIS is huge and filled with countless corridors and rooms. Who knows how long it's been in here and where I even picked it up? It may have even been in here since I got the TARDIS! Hard to say really. You must admit though, the serendipity of it making it's way here right as you were scheming and trying to take my-"

"Enough! Your point has been made. Now fetch me those items! I can't stand another moment of your ridiculous mouth!" the Rani moaned, continuing to rub her head.

The Doctor bumbled along trying not to step on important things, finally reaching a door. As he tried to open it to no avail, his stomach lurched and a dark cloud passed over his mind.

"What are you standing around for? Get on with it already!" the Rani cried, watching the Doctor's futile efforts.

The Doctor grew quiet, placed a finger on his lips and softly responded, "It wont open."

"Excuse me?"

"The door. It wont open..."

"That's... That's not possible! You must be doing something wrong!" the Rani explained rising from her spot. "Try again! And don't be such a nitwit!"

She stumbled over to the console, and pressed several buttons aiming to make the TARDIS react. Not so much as a light came on or a sound made.

"Open the door already! Stop wasting time!" the Rani, growing ever more irritated by the situation lashed at the Doctor.

"I would open it if it were possible! Your mind-numbing insanity has wrecked the TARDIS so bad, not even the doors will open! I can't even comprehend...! This can't be happening... You have successful trapped us both inside the TARDIS!"

"Well maybe the door to outside works..." the Rani indifferently snided.

"Oh yes, because that's just a great idea. Who even knows where we are and if we can even breathe in it's atmosphere."

"It's worth the chance," the Rani laughed proceeding to poke and prod TARDIS trying to determine the full extent of the damage and what move to make next. Clearly, it seems, they were in this together. Unless she wanted all her plans to go for naught, she needed to keep the Doctor around in a healthy state.

"There's no way..." the Doctor grumbled, starting to pace amongst the debris on the floor, "How did it get this bad anyway? I don't recall you pulling out wires and yanking out cabinets..."

"I certainly don't either. But who knows what he did before he finally extinguished," the Rani spoke pointing to the deceased giant bat laying on the ground.

"It's odd that he would target the TARDIS instead of us..." the Doctor pondered.

"Well, the TARDIS was making some awful sounds. It must have really got to his head"

As the two stop speaking for a moment, lost in their own thoughts, the TARDIS began to shake and stir, throwing the Doctor and Rani to the floor. It seems the environment they landed in was less than friendly. Their already hopeless circumstances just became dire.
