Sorry for the wait and then the short chapter. I am having a little more difficulty deciding what ten would do over 11 to save Donna. I have an idea where I am going to go with it so the next chapter should be up in a couple of days.


24 hours had passed and he still hadn't heard from the Master. He was growing more impatient by the minute. It was time to take matters into his own hands. He landed the Tardis on the ship of the Twelfth Cyber Legion and walked out. They monitored the whole quadrant and if anyone had heard where Donna was being kept, it would be them.

"Where is Donna?" He asked sternly, but they refused to answer him. That was fine with him. He returned to the Tardis and sent it off, rematerializing it around Jack and Ianto. He barely looked up as he proceeded to send the Tardis back to the Cyber Legion.

"Get dressed and come back here." He told Jack.

"You could have called." Jack said standing up.

"There was no time." He responded and picked up a small box on the pilot seat.

"Is that a bomb." Jack asked curiously.

"Go get dressed." He sounded out each word carefully and watched as Jack hurried off with Ianto. They both returned a few minutes later fully dressed.

"So, Doctor what's the hurry?" Jack asked him.

"We are going after Donna but first I need to send a message to the Cyber Legion to find out where she is."

"With a bomb." Ianto stated.

"Only way they are going to listen," He turned to Jack. "I am going to drop you off on the leader's ship and Ianto and I are going to plant these on the other ships. You will need to make your way to floor 15 where the Cyberleader is located."

"You're going to blow up the ships." Jack asked surprised.

"That's the plan."

"What does Rose think of it?" Jack asked and then seeing the look on his face continued. "She doesn't know, does she."

"No, and I plan to keep it that way." He told Jack.

He dropped off Jack on floor 1 of the ship and told him exactly what he should say to the Cyberleader. Then he took off and landed on every ship and Ianto covered him as he planted the bombs. Once planted he hacked in to the Cyber Legion network and watched as Jack stood in front of the leader.

"I have a message and a question. A message from the Doctor and a question from me. Where is Donna Noble? Oh, don't give me those blank looks. The Twelfth Cyber Legion monitors this entire quadrant. You hear everything. So you tell me what I need to know. You tell me now, and I'll be on my way." Jack said.

"What is the Doctor's message?" The Cyberleader asked. Taking that as his cue he hit the button on the remote and the ships exploded around the Tardis.

"Would you like me to repeat the question?" Jack asked as the connection was lost.

He waited a minute and then Materialized the Tardis around Jack.

"Anything," He asked as soon as Jack was safely on board.

"Only two words," Jack responded. "Demon's run. Have you heard of it."

"Demon's run is a military base located on an asteroid. It comes from an old saying that demon's run when a good man goes to war." He says quietly the Master wanted a fight and he had no choice but to give it to him.

"Well then it is a good thing, you are a good man," Jack said happily.

"Good men don't need rules, today is the day the Master finds out why I have so many." He was going to need more people. He started to make a list of people who owed him favors and then changed his mind and started to make a list of people he could trust.

Martha wasn't happy with his idea but her and Mickey came willing enough to help him out. He also called upon one of the Sontran's named Strax. He had met Strax several years back and he was currently serving a penance to restore the honor of his clone batch. He didn't completely trust Strax but he had prior knowledge of Demon's Run and could help.

He was currently eating dinner with Rose and Kiam while he waited impatiently for Jack to finish talking to River.

"I'm helping," Rose said again.

"No, it's too dangerous." He told her.

"I can't just sit by and wait."

"And I can't concentrate on saving Donna if you're in trouble." He smiled sadly at her and they ate in silence until Jack came into the room.

"She said she can't be there until the very end." Jack said sitting down and helping himself to a plate.

"So what took so long." He asked and Jack winked at him.

He leaned over and kissed Rose's head. "Finish eating and get some sleep, we have a long day ahead of us tomorrow." He stood up.

"Where are you going," She asked concerned.

"There are a few more people I need to gather," He headed back to the control room.
