Chapter 6

In the art department, it was time to pack away. The lesson was nearly over. The portrates were nearly complete and looked beautiful. When the bell went to mark the end of the lesson, Hannah kept Bradley behind so she could talk to him.

"Its ok you're not in trouble, I just need to ask you something. What are your parents names?" She asked. Bradley looked confused. "I don't know miss, I never met my parents. Is something wrong miss?" He asked.

"No, I was just wondering, well with your name being, Ives, the same as mine, it makes me think... anyway it doesn't matter. You had better be going." He walked towards the door that lead out of the classroom. It was locked. "Miss I can't open it. It's stuck." He said. Hannah tried it. No luck. It was locked, no way out. Not through that door anyway. Hannah walked towards the other door, that lead into another art classroom. She opened the door, then wished she hadn't. A man made completely of metal stood in the doorway.

"Cyberman" shouted Hannah, in Galifreyan. Bradley looked at her. "What's a Cyberman?" He asked. He had understood what she had said, meaning only one thing.

"I'll explain later." She shouted, shoving Bradley towards the locked door again. The Cyberman marched towards them, an arm stretched out. "Now would be a good time for the Doctor to show up." She said, holding Bradley behind her, pretecting him. "I guess it's up to us this time." She fiddled around in her jacket pocket for her sonic screwdriver. Once she had found it, she handed it to Bradley.

"What's this for?" He asked.

"Trust me, just point it at the door and press the button. I'll try to stop metal man killing us." Hannah held out her two hand out in front of her, as if surrendering. A single burst of energy erupted from her hands, knocking the Cyberman back. It gave Bradley just enough time to unlock the door. Once it was open, they ran, towards the Doctor.

He wasn't aware that anything had and was happening, until Hannah and Bradley burst into the classroom. He wasn't teaching As he had a free period. "Are you alright" he asked.

"Not exactly, we had a very close encounter with a Cyberman." said Hannah in Galifreyan. She was shaking and so was Bradley. "A Cyberman!" Shouted the Doctor, also in Galifreyan.

"I'm sorry but can someone please tell me what's going on? Whats a Cyberman?" Bradley asked. The Doctor looked carefully at the young boy. He understood, every word that they had just said. "I'm sorry but who's he?" He asked. "He's our son. He must be." Said Hannah. Both the Docfor and Bradley looked at her in shock.
