Chapter 14

"I know that they use a word based science which appears to be very much like witchcraft and that they hail from Rexel 4" answers Madame Lenora.

"Very good, did you also know that in 1599 on Earth, they tried to put an end to the world using the words of William Shakespeare and that I managed to stop them and they are now safe and sound in a crystal ball aboard my ship?" inquired the Doctor.

"You met Shakespeare?" asks Jack

"Oh yeah, and Agatha Christie and Winston Churchill" comments the Doctor.

"Nice one Doc"

"Gentlemen, back to the Carrionites" insists Madame Lenora.

"Oh right yes them, we may need your help" informed the Doctor.

"Tell me everything you know"

A few minutes later after detailing to the head of the Shadow Proclamation everything that had happened she said "Well, we'll certainly help, it seems as though you have a problem on your hands".

"Yeah you could say that, they kidnapped Tosh!" exclaims Sarah.

"Who is the female?" demands Madame Lenora.

"Remember Donna Noble, well I live by her philosophy, I'm human and every bit as important as Time-Lords".

"Nice one" whispers the Doctor.

"Thank you".

Jack then gets a phone call, its Tosh "Jack we need you back here, now!"

"What is it Tosh?" asks Jack

"Its Gwen, her and Owen were doing a patrol of the house when she got taken by the creatures".

"What about Owen?"

"He's fine, but we need you"

"I'll be there". Jack then puts the phone away and goes over to Madam Lenora's computer and keys in some information. "I am giving you the information you'll need to get to where your help is needed, date, time and coordinates, leave as soon as we do".

"Jack what's up?" questions the Doctor.

"They have Gwen".

"Alright, Jack, Sarah, TARDIS, now. Madam Lenora, I will see you in a short while".

Before Madame Lenora can say anything the Doctor, Sarah and Jack have already gone back into the TARDIS. In a room underground the house, the two Carrionites are stood over a large bubbling cauldron, Gwen however is tied up.

"You won't get away with these, they'll be coming for me" snapped Gwen.

"Oh don't worry, we're counting on it" replies one of the Carrionites.
