"That really narrows it down!"

Ruri exclaimed as the cries of 'Exterminate' grew closer. The Doctor turned to her, grabbing her by the shoulders, looking directly into her eyes.

"Ruri, you need to go. Follow Zara and go. This is way too dangerous." He told her seriously, his voice wavering slightly as he glanced back to see the shadows of the creatures heading towards them.

"But... What about you?" Ruri asked quietly. "Remember what happened the last time I left you!" She paused, remembering. "First you got taken over by a cyber thing and then you got trapped in a pocket universe!" She shook her head, the Doctor sighing.

"Please. Listen to me!" He sighed, his eyes begging for her to follow his instructions, but she shook her head.

"I'm not leaving you." She stated, the Doctor growling in frustration.

"Right! Fine then!" He let go of her shoulders, running his hand through his hair, turning to see a Dalek appearing from round the corner. He instantly pushed Ruri behind him, in a protecting way. Ruri glanced over his shoulder, seeing the metallic alien heading towards them.

"INTRUDERS HAVE BEEN LOCATED!" The creature bellowed, it's voice deep and half robotic sounding, also slightly terrifying. Ruri stayed close behind the Doctor. "INTRUDERS WILL BE EXTERMINATED!" It cried as the whisk-looking weapon on its front moved around.

"Stop that!" The Doctor exclaimed, his tone different. His voice sounded full of anger. "What are you doing here? What do you want?" He narrowed his eyes, standing straight, staring at the Dalek, his eyes full of hatred.

"WE WILL NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS ASKED BY THE INTRUDERS." The Dalek moved it's eye stalk up and down.

"But we aren't just any intruders." The Doctor raised an eyebrow.

"EXPLAIN."

"I am the Doctor." He said darkly, causing the Dalek to stay silent, looking him up and down. Ruri moved out slowly, standing beside the Doctor.

"THE DOCTOR WILL BE EXTERMINATED!" It finally spoke, it's voice sounding determined as it moved forward slightly. "EXTERMINATE!" It cried, going to shoot at the Doctor, but Ruri pulled the Doctor out of the way, causing the Dalek to shoot and miss him. The Doctor glanced at Ruri before turning back to the Dalek.

"Why are you here?!" He exclaimed, stepping forwards, eye to eye with the alien. "And why have you got foot soldiers?! Hmm?" He narrowed his eyes. "That's not the Dalek way..."

"WE CREATED THE ROBOTS USING DALEK TECHNOLOGY."

"Yes, but why?!" He was beginning to get annoyed by the lack of information.

"THE DALEK ROBOTS WILL HELP US TAKE OVER JUPITER AND ITS MOONS." It paused. "THEN WE WILL TAKE OVER THE UNIVERSE. DALEKS ARE VICTORIOUS." It cried, causing Ruri to feel fear. She went to step towards the Doctor, but as she did, she was stopped, being pulled back. The arm that had grabbed her didn't feel fleshy... It felt metallic... Robotic. She gasped as the arm locked round her neck, holding her tightly. "THE DOCTOR WILL HELP THE DALEKS."

"Oh ho! This is rich! The Daleks wanting my help!" The Doctor said in a mocking tone, laughing lightly. "Well I don't think so, mate."

"THEN THE DOCTORS COMPANION WILL BE EXTERMINATED." The Doctors smirk soon faded as he spun round to see Ruri being held by one of the Daleks robots.

"No, no, no, no!" The Doctor shouted, angry at the Daleks and himself. He spun back to the Dalek. "Let her go." He said darkly, a dangerous tone.

"THE DOCTOR WILL HELP THE DALEKS." The Doctor stood, feeling defeated. He sighed, turning to Ruri, seeing her eyes full of fear.

"Doctor... Don't." She shook her head as much as she could. Whoever the Daleks were, they sounded like bad news. He turned back to the Dalek.

"Fine." He muttered, closing his eyes, sighing. "Release Ruri and I will help you."
