And in with another chapter! Thanks for the reviews/favs/follows. They spur me on, and show me that you're liking this story. This chapter is a little dark, but the next chapter should hopefully cheer up a little...


Amy quickly scanned the corridor. At the far end there seemed to be some sort of metal hatch on the ground. Maybe that was her way down to him.

But before she started towards it, she had one more thing to say to her Doctor.

Doctor, I love you.

She felt his smile, and smiled herself as she heard him reply. I love you too, magnificent Pond.

With determination, Amy began to make her way towards the hatch. Crouching down, she searched for any kind of way to get it open, and mentally cheered when she found a handle. These aliens weren't ones for security.

The hatch opened with a piercing squeak that made Amy wince. She grinned when she found a ladder leading downwards. Hopefully it would lead her to the room that the Doctor was in.

Swinging her legs down, Amy began to climb down the ladder. Holding on with one hand she used the other to pull the heavy hatch back down, and was encased in an almost-complete darkness. As she climbed down, the only sound she could hear was her own breathing, which sent chills down her spine. Here she was, on some alien spaceship, in a dark room with no idea what could be waiting for her at the bottom.

Amy breathed a sigh of relief when she reached the bottom, finding another long corridor in front of her, but this time she had to go on hands and knees in order to get through it. These aliens really had no idea on how to make a spaceship easy to navigate around. All these long and complicated corridors, small shafts and ladders.

Could've given me a map, Amy thought sarcastically as she began crawling through the long shaft. It lead a couple of dozen metres ahead of her. She stopped as she spotted a grate to her right. Peering through the thin slats she saw the room that the Doctor was in. Grinning to herself, she lifted the grate off and climbed through, thankful for not being in such a small space any more as she stood up and stretched her legs.

"Pond!" the Doctor rasped, his voice weak. Amy squealed with delight and ran over to him, with intention to give him a hug, but he weakly reached an arm out to stop her, shaking his head.

"Not now love... you might d-damage the equipment which might k-kill me."

Amy choked back a sob; he looked in a bad way. "Oh Theta, what have they done to you?"

"There's nothing you can do... I'm sorry Amy. I've failed you, I allowed us to be captured..."

"Theta, stop blaming everything on yourself, none of this is your fault," Amy reassured him, moving round to his side to gently pat his arm.

"But it is..."

Amy shrieked as a door was shoved open, and several armour-clad aliens marched out, equipped with futuristic guns. They were shaped like humanoids, and wore visors much like that of a car racer.

She heard the guns being loaded, and before she could react they were pointing straight at her. One stepped out in front, presumably the leader.

It removed its mask, to reveal a scaly, lizard like face and ink black eyes. It's brow creased, staring fiercely at the pair that stood before it.

"I am Captain Scarr of the Centrix B Delta, now what are you doing on my ship?" Scarr's eyes darted to Amy.

"The question is, Scarr, what have you done to my friend?!" Amy snapped, returning his glare. She wasn't going to mention that they were in love, that would probably make Scarr use either one of them to bribe the other.

"You know this man?" Scarr spat, striding further towards Amy, who took a nervous step backwards. "You know what he has done?"

"Now, spare the lecture, and let him go!"

"This man is a monster. He has slaughtered millions, destroyed worlds. He is not needed. All we need is his Time Lord energy, then we will have power, power that we can sell. We can make millions, maybe even billions of credits out of this."

"But you'll kill him!"

"That is a mere side effect," Scarr scoffed, flicking a lever on the arm of the chair, making the Doctor's body spasm temporarily.

"Even with you aliens, it's all down to money," Amy sighed exasperatedly, rolling her eyes. "I won't let you do this to him!"

"That," Scarr pointed to the massive tube in the corner of the room, which glowed with an orangey-gold light. "Will give us power worth lots of money. Imagine how we could build all the homes for our people with money like that! We are only here to help our planet rebuild itself, which by the way, he destroyed."

Amy looked aghast. "Excuse me? What are you talking about? The Doctor saves planets, he doesn't destroy them! I think this is some kind of mistake."

"He left our planet to the mercy of our enemies, the Yaxodites. They obliterated it, and he did nothing. He just walked away, and left us to die."

"T-Theta?" Amy asked, looking down to the Doctor, who was making little gasps of pain as Scarr flicked another switch on the arm of the chair. "Did you really do that?"

"I-I had no choice... it was a fixed point in time," the Doctor choked out as another wave of pain hit him.

"You Time Lords and your fixed points!" Scarr roared, slamming a big lever down on the chair, causing the Doctor to cry out in pain as his entire body jolted. Amy screamed, grabbing his unconscious face between her palms and patting his cheeks.

"Doctor! Are you OK? Please say you're OK!"

The Time Lord groaned, biting his lower lip in discomfort. Amy left him, shooting a death glare at Scarr.

"Don't you hurt him!" she declared. "You might be a big, clever old alien or something, but you don't want to get on the wrong side of an angry Scottish woman! I'm warning you, alien boy!"

Scarr bared his shark-like teeth, hissing menacingly. He sauntered past Amy, looking down with a glare at the Doctor.

"I think you'll find you're wrong, human."

He shoved at a lever behind the chair, and massive, blue flexing bolts of electricity crawled through the transparent tubes towards the Doctor.

"NOO! Don't you dare! NO!"

It was too late. Tears began to stream down Amy's cheeks as she saw the Doctor scream in agony as the bolts hit him, causing his skin to burn like it was on fire. She sobbed, but it was no use. Scarr just chuckled, like he had a heart of stone.

Amy wiped tears from her eyes when she saw the horrific sight of the Doctor's limp body, dark red blood dribbling out of nose and mouth. She felt for his pulse, but couldn't find anything. She felt a pang of horror shudder through her body.

"You've killed him!" she shrieked, embarrassingly wiping tears away with the back of her hand. "You've killed him!"

"He has served his purpose," Scarr chuckled darkly, sauntering off to a control panel near the wall. "Soldiers, follow me. Leave this little human to mourn over her pathetic friend."

Obediently, the soldiers marched out of the door, and Scarr grinned sadistically, before exiting himself, locking Amy in. She had no idea how to use anything, so she had no hope of escape.

Amy bent down and gently stroked the Doctor's cheek, hoping for a response. His body was motionless, completely drained of life. The man she loved was now nothing but a lifeless body.

"Theta, please, you can't die," Amy sobbed, kissing his forehead, because his lips were covered in blood. "Please. Don't die!"

Choking back another wave of tears, Amy searched the room for anything that could help her. There was nothing but a giant spanner (which she had no idea why it was there in the first place), and rows of control panels which she had no idea how to use.

Slowly, she walked up to the tube full of the energy, placing her hand lightly against the glass. It was very thin, she figured. The energy instantly began to swarm around the area her hand was pressed against, creating an orangey-gold outline around her hand. She chuckled, placing her other hand on and seeing the energy do the same. She couldn't let them use this. This was her only hope left of helping the Doctor. If he was dead and she found a way to reverse this somehow, maybe he could regenerate.

Out of the corner of her eye, Amy saw the spanner. It was very big, and looked very heavy. But Amy Pond was no ordinary little girl. In fact she wasn't a little girl any more. She was a fully grown woman. And she wasn't weak.

A sly smile appeared on Amy's lips as she looked between the glass tube and the spanner. Thin glass. Big spanner. Good for smashing things.

The smile changed to a grin as Amy rushed over to the spanner, lifting it up and groaning with the effort. Slowly she lugged it towards the tube, the cold metal stinging her warm hands. When she finally reached the tube, she lifted the spanner up, and with all the strength she could muster, took an almighty swing at the glass.
