Chapter 13
Sarah and the Torchwood team have formed a sort of semi-circle around the Doctor and his strange device.
"So what does that thing do Doctor?" Sarah asks.
"I'm glad you asked that, it's a signal device" answers the Time Lord.
"To signal what?" questions Ianto.
"Not what my dear friend, who?" corrects the Doctor.
"What on Earth are you talking about?" exclaims Owen.
"Nothing, this thing is to signal a group of people who aren't from this Earth" explains the Doctor.
"Which people?" asks Gwen.
"The Shadow Proclamation, you see the Proclamation is basically a space police, but because they are so far from Earth, you need a special device to contact them, which is where this thing comes in".
"Umm Doctor, couldn't you just take the TARDIS to the Proclamation for help" interjects Sarah.
Then the Doctor slaps his palm against his head and says "Why didn't I think of that, you Sarah Gronow are a genius, I suppose you guys can keep these if you ever need it, come on Sarah I'm taking you to the Shadow Proclamation, we'll be back in a little while".
"Can I come Doc?" asks Jack.
"Sure, come on".
"Right guys, any developments with the Carrionites, you call me on my mobile".
The Torchwood team agree with the plan and watch as their leader leaves the hub with an ancient man and a young girl.
In the TARDIS, the Doctor is just about to set the controls for where they need to go when Jack asks "Wait Doc, where's the extrapolator, we're gonna need it if we're going to the Proclamation?"
"It's underneath, our feet, new TARDIS and all. Now you two, hold on tight" orders the Doctor so all three of them grip onto the console as they hurtle towards the Shadow Proclamation.
The really pale woman seen in the Shadow Proclamation in the episode The Stolen Earth is seen talking with a colleague of hers on a futuristic style computer when she hears the sound of TARDIS and sure enough the ancient ship is seen materialising in the corner of the room and as the three occupants of the ship exit it, a troop of about 8 Judoon walk into the room and aim their guns at the Doctor, Sarah and Jack.
"No bo ho sho ko ro to so. Bo-ko-do-zo-go-bo-fo-po-jo! Mo ho". says the Doctor and the Judoon respond by lowering their weapons and stepping aside to allow the pale woman through, she doesn't recognise the Doctor or Sarah (obviously) but she turns to Jack and regards him for a few moments.
"What are you doing here?" she asks him
"Nice to see you to Madame Lenora" replies Jack.
"You two know each other?" questions the Doctor.
"We do, I take it you are the new regeneration of the Doctor" says the woman Lenora.
"How did you guess?" asks the Doctor.
"Your ship kind of gives it away. So what can I do for you this time Time-Lord?" offers Lenora.
"What do you know about Carrionites?" asks the Doctor.
