A/N: I know i am really really sorry for not updating sooner! Anyways, if you have trouble picturing the setting in this story it is very similar to the Silurians except without all the weird lava stuff and the vines and plants. And let me just clarify once again, the girl regenerating in the first chapter was NOT River even though it happened to be a lot like it *i didn't mean to write it that way though*, and the aliens in this story are OC. :) other than that i hope you enjoy this fourth chapter! please leave reviews! i love reviews! and thanks to my 16 followers (you know who you are and you rock!)
Disclaimer: I DONT OWN THE MAGNIFICENT DOCTOR OR OTHER CHARACTERS! (EXCEPT MINE)
(BOW TIES AND FEZEZ ARE COOL!)
Chapter 4: Women
"No. Never! NOT POSSIBLE!" River almost lost control.
"Yesssss yes very possible..." he rolled the s again.
"You really have NO idea who you're dealing with!" Amy shouted and gripped the bars.
He laughed evilly and pulled out his gun, cocked it and laughed even louder. He cocked the gun just in case they planned in attacking, the gun was a warning symbol; he wasn't really going to kill them in cages. That wouldn't be any fun; he'd wait till they were out in the open so everyone could watch.
"Either shut up or I'll make you! You're lucky our tribe leader came and sprayed you with that gas before I killed you. Now that your males are dead you have nothing to live for do you? "
"There's always something to live for!" River shouted, "You didn't even check us for weapons did you?"
"I know humans, you're a woman! Men know that women are useless, they can hardly do anything right! Why would they arm you? Hence the name "mankind" it's not "WOman kind!" Checking for weapons would be a waste of my time." He scoffed and slammed the lab door shut leaving the ladies in utter silence.
"Yes it worked!" River smiled and reached into her boot revealing a silver and gold device with a small green bulb at the top.
"Stereotype aliens... they still believe that women can't do anything..." she sighed with a smirk on her face as she soniced the cage door and let the two of them out.
"How...?" Amy smiled in confusion at the SonicScrewdriver.
"What? I'm from the future! Even if I don't remember this happening, I know my doctor, and I know aliens. Switching the Sonic's before we passed out was my safest bet."
Amy smiled to herself "well, your brilliance comes from MY side of the family!" She joked as they started searching the lab for anything that could be useful; though they found nothing but broken glass test tubes and a hidden notebook with lists of ingredients and chemicals all conveniently in English.
"What does all this mean?" Amy asked.
"It means someone who speaks English was here that's for sure," she flipped through the pages, "and it seemed like they were doing experiments on... something or someone... none the less, let's take this; it could be useful later." River headed for the door but was stopped.
"What later?" Amy whined slightly, "what do we do now? Where do we go?"
"Well what does The Doctor do when he loses us?" River turned to her.
Without a seconds hesitation she replied, "He saves us..." and Amy understood what they would be doing now.
"Okay, wait for my signal... GO!" River whispered as they ran around a hallway to another door. They had managed to sneak by two patrolling troops as they glued their backs to the damp walls; still unarmed.
Amy looked right and left before she used her sleeve to clear the fog off of the small, circular, window on the door. She couldn't help but smile deviously as she saw the unguarded contents of the square room.
"What in there is making you so happy?" River whispered and smiled with her, wondering whether it was maybe The Doctor inside.
"Let me show you!" She grabbed the handle and hoped it was open, luckily it was. She walked it and pressed a yellow button which turned on the lights.
River stepped inside and smirked.
She reached for something silver and shiny on a shelf. "Now this is my stuff..."
"The weapons storage! Found by yours truly!" Amy pointed to herself with one hand as she reached for a gun with the other. The room was barely 3 meters long and 3 meters wide, each wall covered in shelves holding 200 or so guns.
"Now that were armed..." River pushed the door closed though she left just a crack open; she examined the gun and threw what seemed like extra rounds inside her pocket, "our next stop is to look for them!"
"I thought that was our first stop..." Amy cocked her head to the side.
"Well you know what I mean!" River laughed and was joined by Amy.
Their smiles quickly faded as they heard steady yet distant footsteps from outside the door; which startled them terribly.
Amy hit the button again, and then they ran to the darkest corner of the room closing their eyes; not daring making a sound.
Their pupils dilated and their hearts pumped gallons as the tension in their bodies grew and the steps came closer and closer. By the sound of the Click Clack of the metal boots you could tell there was just one alien walking down the creepy hallway. They held their breath as the footsteps stopped in front of the door and winced as the alien took a brief look inside, not noticing the two. It continued walking down and the Click Clack faded away. They sighed in relief and let their shoulders relax; Amy ran her hand through her hair and smiled at River.
"That was way too close..." Amy half whispered half spoke at regular volume (in slight fear of another alien or troop.)
"We don't have time to waste now!" River turned the lights back on and looked around the room one last time for anything that could be useful, and her eyes landed on a small doorknob.
"How did we not see that room?" She muttered under her breath and clenched the knob. But before she could turn it, Amy stopped her; River spun on her heels and asked, "Yes?"
"The... The Doctor..." Amy said uncomfortably, "do you think he really is dead? I mean you saw all those armed aliens! They look ruthless and I'm just kinda worried like what if they actually-"
"Why do you keep asking that question?" River rolled her eyes impatiently, "Amy I thought you knew better than this! THE DOCTOR DOESN'T DIE-"
"AND YOU KNOW THAT FOR SURE?" Amy shouted back.
There was a long pause as the two ladies looked at the ground and just thought. River twisted the knob without speaking or turning to Amy. This door revealed yet another closet, this one was filled with armor; shiny, hard metal armor.
Even when they were in a tough situation, a terrible, suspenseful, rough, unlucky situation, luck still found a way to shine through for them.
"I still wonder why we don't go back to our old ways..." Grolkadeen huffed under his breath as he assisted with the monitors next to their military leader. They were in the heart of their tribe's settlement, the control room rather; hooked with several screens and cameras.
"The Terramanti people and tribe are gone! They were useless and pathetic!" The military leader or 'Gharr' as he liked to go by growled.
Yes, he was right about everyone being gone; there were no more women or children in the tribe anymore. One by one they had all started disappearing and they didn't return. Grolkadeen was the last living alien of the old race that they knew about. Now, Gharr knew exactly what had happened to them, no one knew that he knew so no one asked. He was a strange being, full of strange secrets and he had a very very strange past. All the soldiers that walked around were under command of Gharr and Grolkadeen; they would follow commands and only do as they were told. Yes they could talk but only when they weren't on duty, no they couldn't eat, well they didn't have to eat since their suits were self-supporting (and you will learn more about that later) yes they were a 24-7 army that never slept; either they were patrolling, in the labs, or guarding. And yes their tribe's old name was the Terramanti tribe. But no they, (well if I told you any more I would spoil stuff so I'll save it for later)
"Send guards to kill those human imbeciles!" Gharr shouted and slammed the keys and buttons with his fist in rage, "you four!" He spun around and pointed to four guards standing idle, "go execute them this second! And bring me their heads when you're finished! I already told those idiotic women that they were dead, now i will look like a fool for lying though its not like they're going to know," he side-tracked for a second than continued, "Those males are just extra meat aboard, it's not like we have to fear them... they should fear us! Those mere mortals and-"
"You know," Grolkadeen said softly and put his hand on Gharr's shoulder, "those humans could be of some use to us. One even calls himself a Doctor! They are an intelligent race and have so much to offer us. I remember a long time ago we had a human here and-"
"I don't need your lectures old man!" Gharr shoved his arm off and took a step away, "I sent a troop to kill them 20 minutes ago! You called them off so you could reason with me but not matter what you say I have already sent another squad and I am NOT in the mood-"
"But you are always in the mood to kill!"
"So what? I am a military leader and I do what I think best because I am boss here!"
"But I have a right too!" Grolkadeen yelled back angrily, "I have a right so I should have a say! I have lived much longer than you have and I have experienced much more and I KNOW much much more than you so put your ego aside and listen!" So Gharr turned around, still very cross, "look I know you can't take your helmet off and I know exactly why..." and this startled Gharr slightly, "and I know you're different though I've never figured out why. But I've known you long enough to feel the tension and pressure rising in you, and you told me your chest was hurting earlier anyways, so please... go rest Gharr. Go to the corridor and relax," and before Gharr could object he added firmly, "AND THATS AN ORDER!" so with that he left.
"So this is the room?" Guard one asked.
Guard three nodded and cocked his gun; he leaned against the door trying to listen for voices but heard none.
"So who gets to take em out ay? Who gets the shots?" You could hear Guard two smirking at the words 'take em out'.
"Usually when we execute, two of us fire into one body and the other two fire into the other." Guard four replied nonchalantly.
"So four holes and two bodies?" Guard one laughed.
"Yes, yes that's it exactly." Guard three added.
And they all chuckled as the rest cocked their guns and opened the door.
The males shot up hopefully but as they saw who had entered their smiles faded like butter on a hot skillet.
"Uhh okay Doctor..." Rory ran his hand through his
hair and spun nervously, "big shiny men with big shiny guns..."
"I know I know..." The Doctor tensed, "you all know me! I am The Doctor! And for those of you who don't... I am The Doctor! And I am here to help so there is no need for your guns!" He smiled nervously.
"We didn't ask for your help and we don't need it. We will rise and take you all. Destruction will rule!" Guard three snarled as he closed the door behind them.
The guards pointed their guns at the two and the so called "Doctor" and the other male cringed. Then suddenly Guard one and two spun around and shot the other two guards twice.
"Four holes two bodies!" Guard one said pulling off her helmet letting her curls spill out.
"Thanks for your advice ya scumbags!" The other guard shouted at the dead aliens as she took her helmet off letting her orange-red hair flow down.
