Luna's Prophecy

The Doctor was almost stunned as he took in the sight of his two old companions. Jack sat behind the wheel, driving them back to Cardiff, and Martha sat in the back seats with the Doctor, clearly the one who pulled him in. They both looked like they hadn't slept for a few days but their spirits had lifted a bit.

"What are you two doing?" He finally asked.

"Jack is taking us back to Torchwood," Martha announced, "We'll be safe there."

"What? I am not going anywhere. Stop the car and let me out!"

"I can't do that, Doctor," Jack called back, "Sorry."

"Jack, I need to find Luna. The Daleks have taken her."

The SUV fell silent as Jack remembered meeting the young brunette and facing the Rani with her. Martha looked at the two of them confused.

"Who?" She asked.

"Luna Edwards is the Doctor's new companion." Jack explained.

"And I am positive that the Daleks have taken her. Jack, I am begging you. Let me out so I can find her."

The silence returned. Jack really wanted to obey his old friend but he knew that the universe's best chance of survival was to get the Doctor to Torchwood. Martha could see the Captain struggling to decide what to do.

"Doctor," She finally said, "We need your help and Torchwood is the safest place to come up with a plan. We can rescue Luna once the plan is set in stone."

Finally, the Doctor sighed in acceptance. He nodded then sat back, getting comfortable for the long journey to Cardiff.

Meanwhile, Luna was finally in the Daleks base. She was placed in a force field that stretched from the floor up to the ceiling. There was no way out. She watched, nervously, as the hundreds of Daleks glided around her. It was terrifying being stood right in the middle of them, not knowing what was going to happen. As she watched the metallic creatures, she was unaware of a human figure walking towards her.

"Ah, Miss Edwards." A smooth voice spoke through the darkness.

Luna almost jumped out of her skin. She spun around to see a rather handsome looking man. He was tall like the Doctor, had well-tanned skin, grey eyes and grey hair. He looked in his mid-forties but looked good for it. Luna backed away but hit the side of her invisible cell. Her hearts were thrashing against her ribs. The smile on the man's face made her terrified.

"Don't be so afraid," He cooed, "I am not going to harm you."

"Maybe," Luna replied, her voice breaking slightly, "But what's to stop your little mates from doing so?"

"Me. The Daleks won't shoot you with out my saying so."

"But that's impossible. Daleks would rather destroy a human rather than follow their orders. These guys must have something wrong with them. What have you done?"

"You should be grateful. Left to their own devices the Daleks would have exterminated the entire human race by now. But we have an agreement."

"Who are you?"

"Of course, I know your name yet you don't know mine. I, Miss Edwards, am Doctor Dalton Granger, a scientist."

"What is this 'agreement' you have with the Daleks?"

"I will be able to give the Daleks what they want most of all, freedom from the Oncoming Storm, the Doctor."

Luna's eye widened with shock and her hearts raced. That prophecy seemed closer to becoming true.

Back in Cardiff, the Doctor was about to be part of an unexpected reunion. He followed Jack and Martha out of the SUV and in to the centre of the Hub. The size and scale of the inside of the Torchwood head quarters was immense even by the standards of the TARDIS. The Doctor stood as he looked around at the layout and the vast amounts of technology visible.

"I like what you done with the place," He smiled, "Like a proper secret base but no furry white cats in sight"

Then the Doctor spotted everyone hiding in the Hub. Sarah Jane came rushing over to him looking relieved but spooked.

"Oh Doctor!" She gasped, hugging him firmly, "I have never been so pleased to see you."

"Good to see you Sarah. The Doctor smiled.

They parted the hug and Jack introduced the Doctor to Gwen, Rhys and Ianto officially.

"He's even more handsome in the flesh." Gwen beamed.

"Hard to believe he's as old as Jack says he is." Ianto agreed.

Then the Doctor spotted a face he wasn't expecting to see.

"Doctor this is…" Jack started to introduce them.

"…Private James Cooper of UNIT. The Doctor interrupted.

"Actually, its Sergeant Cooper now, Doctor," James replied, "Colonel Harrison promoted me last month."

"Good for you. Luna said you'd do well."

James blushed slightly at Luna's name being mentioned. He was still a little bit in love with her. The Doctor could see this in the young soldier's face. Despite the Time Lord's own feelings for Luna, it was nice to see a soldier who cared. Once the greetings were out of the way, Jack showed the Doctor the data and information about the Daleks current invasion. The Doctor put on his thick-framed glasses and started reading through it. There had to be something they could use.

Meanwhile, Luna was still in shock at the situation before her. Her cheeks were streaked with tear marks. The fear for the safety of the Doctor and her self was intense now.

"Why would you want rid of the Doctor?" She asked, "What has he ever done to you?"

"I used to work for UNIT, research department," Granger explained, "when I met the Doctor in the eighties. He was younger than and in a different form. Rainbow coloured coat he wore back then with blonde curls on his head. Nothing like the skinny whippet you travel with now."

"You've seen his past regenerations?"

"Only a few. Anyway, after meeting this fascinating man and discovering he was an alien, I became determined to study him and his people. Every time he appeared on Earth, I would race to his location and observe him. I looked hard for any record of Gallifrey and for those lucky enough to actually go. But then I realised that I had gathered as much information I could but still had many questions left to answer."

"So what?"

"I can only answer these questions by getting myself a living specimen to examine. That's where the Doctor and my deal with the Daleks come in. They catch the Doctor for me and I can keep him out of the way for the Daleks to control the world, with me as their equal."

Luna just stood staring at him stunned. Doctor Dalton Granger was mad and completely foolish. There had to be a way to stop him.

Will the Doctor save Luna in time? And what does Granger want with the Doctor? review and find out...
