Chapter 5
Clara didn't know how to help the Doctor. She couldn't comprehend how she was feeling seeing previous companions, who she was very close to and now had the face of one of them, were now Cybermen. Clara vaguely remembered them when she jumped into the Doctor's Time stream and saw glimpses of them and when the TARDIS showed her previous people who had traveled with the Doctor.
She saw The Doctor shaking and tears were glossing her eyes.
The Doctor walked closer to them and felt her hearts cracked a little. And felt the guilt of when they were first sent back by the Weeping Angel and that was the last time she saw them. But now, now she was seeing them as Cybermen, not cold and emotionless ones but one of the few who had fought the Conversion process.
"P-Pond's how… I'm sorry you had to go through this. I will find a way to fix this. I swear." The Doctor said shakily but Clara detected a hint of hatred.
"Doctor… we missed you. And you can't, we know this process is permanent." Cyber-Amy said in her mechanical voice.
"But, that doesn't mean we won't help you end this. Also, why do you have my wife's face?" Cyber-Rory asked with a hint of jealousy in the mechanical voice.
"Don't talk, I can't listen to you, not like this. Here you go." The Doctor said and activated her Sonic at them.
"Try it now." The Doctor said in a neutral voice.
"I will sock this Master or Missy person until she's catatonic." Cyber-Amy said in in her regular voice, but was filled with anger that sent shivers of fear down The Doctor's back.
"Yep, same old Amy, terrifying as ever." The Doctor thought.
"Sounds better, and the reason I have Amelia's face is because I saw a hallucination of her before I Regenerated and I guess that's how I ended up like this." The Doctor said and stuffed her hands into her Jacket pockets.
"Makes sense, but I got to say, I look good in that outfit." Cyber-Amy said with twinge of Jealousy.
"I actually took some of your clothes from the wardrobe." The Doctor said sheepishly.
"I won't need them anyway. So… what's the plan?"
"Right then, only way to take out a Cyberman is to create an Transient Electromagnetic Disturbance big enough to cover the whole world and take them all out at once. But I'm not going to do that because it will take out all power from everywhere and won't be controlled and it will destroy their Emotion Inhibitor's."
"But is there a way to take out the chips without doing that? And what about the clouds outside?" Cyber-Amy said.
"There is, but I'm not doing that either." The Doctor refused.
"Why can't we use that one? Explain Doctor." Cyber-Amy said.
"Yeah, we know what happens when you do it because you told us. What's the problem?" Cyber-Rory asked.
The Doctor gave them a serious look and said," I'm not going to do it with you two like this. Your chips may be off but you will still perish as well, I will not let that happen again and I will have to live with that guilt forever, I have your face Amy and it's a constant reminder of what I could have done but wasn't able to do for you two… the same goes for Katarina, Sara, Adric, Kamelion and probably others in the future. I will… find a way."
Clara walked over to The Doctor and enveloped her in a hug trying to comfort her for everything she had been through for the past 1,000+ years. Her previous Doctor wasn't as emotional or open as this one but she had to get used to it.
The Doctor didn't cry but relaxed and felt two metal hands on her shoulders and jumped a little. She wasn't used to being this close to Cybermen without them trying to kill her, even thought the ones she was with were her former companions and family.
"At least you found someone when I told you and if you didn't, then there would have been hell to pay and you would have had a beating of a lifetime Raggedy Girl." Cyber-Amy said in a joking manner but the Doctor knew there was some seriousness in it.
"Plus, our time was over when the Angels touched us, this is our last time with you Doctor and we hope you move forward." Cyber-Rory said.
"Right let's go outside and see what's going on. Also play your part." The Doctor said.
They walked outside to find themselves in a cemetery surrounded by newly formed Cybermen.
"So do you know what Missy's plan is?" The Doctor asked.
"Well, we can tell those clouds will rain down pollen again and probably turn everyone else into Cybermen." Cyber-Rory said.
"Do you know if it can be stopped?" Clara asked.
"We don't know." Cyber-Amy said unsure.
A sound came nearby and they all looked at blue energy where Missy teleported and floated down a little to the ground with an umbrella like she was an evil version of Mary Poppins.
"Well did you see that, quite an entrance if do say so myself. Doctor if you want grieve do it later we have business." She said not caring.
Cyber-Amy clenched her fists and wanted to badly to shoot her but The Doctor would want her alive so she can figure out how to stop all of this.
"What is your game?" The Doctor said with venom dripping from her voice.
"Oh well now, aren't we using our angry voices? I might have to reconsider giving you your gift." Missy said in a fake hurt tone.
"What gift?"
Missy held a bracelet that looked like a communicator and said," Cyber dears look at Mommy. Hand up and down, bring up the right and then lower it and do the robot a little."
As she said that the Cybermen did as they were commanded, except for Amy and Rory.
"You see the Doctor the power is all in the wrist, you just have to know how to use it and they will do exactly what they say. Now, every man, woman and child are now at my command. An indestructible Army that can take over planets, with that the more they kill the more they recruit into their numbers. Happy birthday."
Clara gave the Doctor a confused look. She didn't know it was her birthday and if she had known then she would have had done something for her. While The Doctor didn't notice but was in thought and confused.
"You didn't know did you? It's lucky one of us remembers these things. Not even your friend their knows. But any way, Happy Birthday." Missy said and handed The Doctor her controller bracelet and put it on her wrist.
"Mrs. President." She said in small singing voice and did a curtsy.
"Doctor." The Cybermen said, marched in place and had their heads bowed except Cyber-Amy and Cyber-Rory.
"Tiny bit pleased?"
The Doctor looked around confused while Missy rolled her eyes.
"C'mon crack a smile why don't ya? This one seems to scowl, be stubborn and get angry a lot."
"Why are you doing this? Just to give me an Army?" The Doctor said with a scowl.
"Well I don't need one do I? No one knows more about being right more but you."
The Doctor was about to take off the controller but Missy stopped her.
"Give a good girl fire cover and they won't run out of people to kill."
"I don't want an Army!"
"Oh now that's the trouble! Yes you do and you always wanted one! All those people suffering in the Dalek camps, all the people you couldn't save or could save, now you can save them!"
The Doctor had her arms crossed thinking of what to do. Clara had had a scowl of what's going but she heard the clenching of fists behind her and assumed Cyber-Amy and Cyber-Rory were doing it out of anger and disbelief.
"The bad guys always win and for once the good guys win it all!" She mockingly with her fist raised up.
"No one, could have that kind of power."
"Not just no one but you of course Doctor. And you don't have a choice there's only one way of not letting these storm clouds rain down and killing all of these Monkeys you love so much. Go and conquer the Universe Mrs. President!"
"Show another bad girl how it's done." Missy said and bowed to the ground.
The Doctor got frustrated, tore off the bracelet and said," Why ae you doing this?!"
"I need to let you know we're not so different… I need my friend back." She said sincerely while The Doctor looked skeptical.
"Every battle, every war, every conflict, every nation… for now on you decide the outcome and as an added bonus you can save all those you have met and stop them from dying as well."
The Doctor looked down and still in thought and Missy continued.
"From now on you decide the outcome. What's the Mrs. President? Don't you trust yourself?"
The Doctor started more and had flashbacks of all the time she failed.
The 5th Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan watch helplessly as Adric dies when the ship crashes into the earth.
"Now I'll never know if I was right."
10th Doctor holds his daughter Jenny as she lays dying after she takes the bullet from General Cobb that was meant for The Doctor.
"You need to hold on… you need to, you hear me? We got things to do, you hear me." He said emotionally.
"Sounds good." Jenny said, trying to sound confident.
Not being able to save River when she perished in the library.
"You and me time and space and you would just run." River said emotionally.
The 10th Doctor about to erasing the mind of Donna so she won't burn.
"Oh My God. You can't make me go back Doctor please!" Donna said, tears in her eyes.
"Donna… Donna Noble. I'm so, so sorry." The Doctor said with tears as well." But, we had the best of times. Goodbye." He said and placed his hands on her temples.
"No, no, no, no!" She said before she fell unconscious.
11th Doctor tries to talk Amy out of being touched by a Weeping Angel to be with Rory.
"You are creating a fixed time, and I won't be able to see you again." The Doctor said near tears.
"I'll be fine." Amy said in tears.
"Amy Please, just come back into the TARDIS."
"[Sniffs]… Raggedy Man… Goodbye." She said and vanishes leaving the Doctor devastated.
The Doctor looked at Cyber-Amy and Cyber-Rory who were looking down and she knew they were thinking about what they did to the Doctor and she forgave again for what they had done. Clara was close to having tears that made the Doctor's Heart's break.
The Doctor found her conclusion and got to eye level with Missy.
"Thank you, thank you so much." The Doctor said and hugged Missy.
"I wasn't sure, I can't decided from time to time, and now I know." She said and got up.
"I am not a good person nor a bad person, not a General or a President nor a God of any of any sorts. I can't save anyone."
"I am an idiot." She said with a smile.
Clara gave her a confused look, Cyber-Amy and Cyber-Rory looked at each other what could have been read as confusion as well. While Missy gave her a look as well.
"With a box, a screwdriver, just passing through. Helping out the best I can and learning, just not about new things but mistakes. I thought I got this face for not saving everyone and this was a curse but I was wrong. This means I can't save everyone but will try my hardest to save and protect them. Especially her over there and Amy and Rory. Amy catch!" The Doctor said and threw the bracelet at Cyber-Amy.
She caught it and strapped it on her wrist.
"You didn't notice did you? Two of your own soldier's not obeying because they fought it and their humanity stayed." The Doctor gloated with a smile.
"No that's wrong that's not possible." Missy said in disbelief and looked at Cyber-Amy.
Cyber-Amy walked over to Missy with Rory and said," Sorry to rain on your parade but the rain is not going to fall anytime soon." She said with authority.
"Oh? And why won't it?"
"Because they will burn and won't harm anyone else." Cyber-Rory said.
"And who will?" Missy said with a raised eyebrow and her hands on her hips.
"We will of course." Cyber-Amy said.
"Two Cybermen won't be enough to save the planet."
"Correct." Cyber-Rory said and got the bracelet from Cyber-Amy.
"Attention! Alright, I'm not good at this speech stuff but we know this is all bad. We will save everyone! Not as some group of emotionless killing machines but as individuals and we won't mope around feeling sorry for ourselves!" He said and handed the bracelet to his wife.
"Could've started off better. You will take orders from us and not from a raving lunatic who dresses like a an evil Disney character!"
"Excuse me?" Missy said offended but Cyber-Amy ignored her.
Both turned around to the Doctor with Cyber-Amy saying." Raggedy Girl, Clara, take care of yourselves and move on. We're done our part and we'll be leaving."
"And know the both of us love you and River. Tell her that, tell my dad and tell her parents. Goodbye."
The Doctor nodded with a sad smile and said," Run along Ponds. Go and save this planet."
Cyber-Amy and Cyber-Rory nodded at each other. They hit their chest plates to activate their rockets and held each other's hand and flew off with all the other Cybermen into the clouds. They exploded a second later with the clouds disappearing and the day becoming bright. The same was happening all over the world.
"Goodbye Ponds." She thought and a single tear fell.
"Well, all the clouds are gone." Clara said.
"Yes, thank you Captain Obvious." The Doctor said with a smile while Clara narrowed her eyes at her.
"Burnt up. Totally burned. Burnt to nothing." She said.
"I'm sorry." Clara said.
"10-0-11-0-0 by 0-2." Missy said.
"What did you say?" The Doctor asked.
Missy had a neutral expression said," Coordinates for Gallifrey, right where it was and you didn't think to look."
"You are lying." The Doctor said getting angry.
"We can… we can go together just like the old days?"
"You'll be clamped in irons."
"If you like."
"Doctor, I assume you'll remember those coordinates?" Clara asked and had Missy's device in her hands and pointed it at Missy.
"Don't, don't you dare Clara." The Doctor said.
"Doctor, you've been through a lot today and I'm trying to help."
"Clara don't, I won't let you do this. Let me." The Doctor said and the device.
"Ooo, getting a little low now are we. Might as well ask you to say something nice Doctor." Missy said and leaned on a gravestone.
The Doctor rubbed her face, aimed at her but a blue beam consumed Missy and she disappeared. The Doctor and Clara had a look of confusion and turned around. A lone Cyberman lowered its weapon and pointed at an area down the hill.
Clara looked and her eyes widened.
"Doctor look!" She said and took off.
They both went to the bottom of the hill to find Kate lying on the ground unconscious. And The Doctor got down and checked her to see if she was alright.
"Kate, she's still breathing. But she can't be alive at all, she fell out a plane." The Doctor said in confusion.
"Well she's here." Clara said.
The Doctor's eyes widened, looked up the hill and said," I think it has to do with the Cyberman."
"Doctor, she's talking about her Dad." Clara said.
The Doctor looked at Clara and back at the Cybermen version of Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart with a knowing grin.
"Of course, Earth's darkest hour and mine. Where else would you be old friend?" She said with a fond smile.
The Doctor did something she should had done a long time ago. She saluted the Brigadier and he nodded and soon flew away into the distance with The Doctor and Clara looking on.
And that the end of this Chapter. One more left until I'm finished. I would like to thank everyone who has reviewed whom I will name next chapter. I almost cried while writing this. I had to look up Companion deaths and their departures. I will do the end like Deep Breath and Death in heaven. It might be short a chapter so I might have it up later.
P.S. Sorry in advance if I didn't add other character's to the list of dead companions. I considered putting in Rose but she lived and I thought about Peri but she ended up living in a different way but you'll have to look it up yourselves.
Thanks and see you all later!
