ASYLUM OF THE DALEKS
*EDTED*
Angel's POV:
I was running through the street on a planet called Scavera and the palace guards were chasing me. Something grabbed hold of me pulling me inside a house I came face to face with a man of this planet and he looked at me for a long time making me uncomfortable. Then he seems to go still and a Dalek eyepiece sprouts from his forehead and everything goes dark.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
I arrive in a white room to Rory waking up on the floor of the circular room. Amy is standing nearby with me. I have missed them so much I hoped I would see them soon but I wanted to venture out on my own. "Where are we?" Rory asks. He gets up and looks out of the small window. There is a fleet of Dalek saucers outside. "So how much trouble are we in?" He asks and the door opens and a Dalek enters.
"How much trouble, Mister Pond?" Dad asks him he entered the room under escort along with Mum.
"Out of ten? Eleven." Mum answers and the ceiling opens and the floor rises, lifting us up into the ceiling.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
A large domed area with a multitude of Daleks in tiers around them, and the White Supreme Dalek nearby, along with an organic Dalek and the TARDIS. "Where are we? A spaceship, right?" Amy asks.
"Not just any spaceship. The Parliament of the Daleks. Be brave." Mum tells her.
"What do we do?" Amy asks.
"Make them remember you. Well, come on then. You've got us. What are you waiting for? At long last, it's Christmas! Here I am." Dad says and he closes his eyes tight, expecting to die. The organic Dalek speaks.
"Save us. You will save us." Dalek PM orders us.
"I'll what?" Mum asks them.
"You will save the Daleks." A Dalek orders us.
"Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks. Save the Daleks." The Daleks chant.
"Well." I breathe out.
"Save the Daleks." The Daleks continue to chant.
"This is new," I say looking at the others.
"What are they doing?" Rory asks looking at my parents.
"Frost's chosen the most defendable area in the room, counted all the Daleks, counted all the exits, and now The Doctor's calculating the exact distance we're standing apart and starting to worry. Oh, and look at him frowning now." Amy explains. "Something's wrong with Amy and Rory, and who's going to fix it? And he straightens his bow tie."
"We have arrived." Dalek PM announces.
"Arrived where?" Dad asks.
"Doctor, Frost." Dalek PM calls.
"The Prime Minister will speak with you now," Darla announces.
"Do you remember who you were before they emptied you out and turned you into their puppet?" Dad asks her.
"My memories are only reactivated if they are required to facilitate cover or disguise," Darla answers him.
"You had a daughter," Mum tells her looking slightly angry.
"I know. I've read my file." Darla answers with no emotion on her face and Mum and Dad walk up to the Prime Minister, who is the organic Dalek.
"Well?" Dad asks it.
"What do you know of the Dalek Asylum?" Dalek PM asks my parents.
"According to legend, you have a dumping ground. A planet where you lock up all the Daleks that go wrong. The battle-scarred, the insane, the ones even you can't control. It's never made any sense to me." Mum answers it.
"Why not?" Dalek PM asks her.
"Because you'd just kill them." Mum answers.
"It is offensive to us to extinguish such divine hatred." Dalek PM corrects her.
"Offensive?" Dad asks.
"Does it surprise you to know the Daleks have a concept of beauty?" Dalek PM asks.
"I thought you'd run out of ways to make me sick. Hello again. You think hatred is beautiful." Dad says and I knew he was right it was wrong.
"Perhaps that is why we have never been able to kill you." Dalek PM says looking at all of us and I knew they were thinking of Big Brother Reaper. A hole opens in the middle of the floor. Dad, Mum, and Darla walk back to it. A planet is visible.
"The Asylum. It occupies the entire planet, right to the core." Darla explains.
"How many Daleks are in there?" Mum asks.
"A count has not been made. Millions, certainly." Darla answers.
"All still alive?" Dad asks.
"It has to be assumed. The Asylum is fully automated. Supervision is not required." Darla answers.
"Armed?" Amy asks.
"The Daleks are always armed." Darla answers.
"What colour? I'm sorry, there weren't any good questions left." Rory says.
"This signal is being received from the very heart of the Asylum," Darla explains playing Carmen over the speakers.
"What is the noise? Explain. Explain." White Dalek orders.
"Er, it's me," Dad says.
"Sorry, what?" I ask him.
"It's me, playing the triangle. Okay, I got buried in the mix. Carmen. Lovely show. Someone's transmitting this. Have you considered tracking back the signal and talking to them?" Dad asks the Daleks. "Hello? Hello? Carmen. Hello?" Dad calls out.
"Hello?" Someone answers.
"Come in. Come in. Come in, Carmen." Dad calls again.
"Hello! Yes, yes, sorry. Do you read me?" A Woman asks.
"Yes, reading you loud and clear. Identify yourself and report your status." Dad orders her.
"Hello. Are you real? Are you actually, properly, real?" She asks him.
"Yes, confirmed. Actually, properly, real." Dad answers.
"Oswin Oswald, junior entertainment officer, starship Alaska. Current status crashed and shipwrecked somewhere not nice. Been here a year, rest of the crew missing. Provisions good but keen to move on." Oswin answers.
"A year? Are you okay? Are you under attack?" Dad asks her.
"Some local lifeforms. Been keeping them out." Oswin answers.
"Do you know what those lifeforms are?" Dad asks her.
"I know a Dalek when I hear one, yeah," Oswin answers.
"What have you been doing on your own against the Daleks for a year?" Dad asks her.
"Making souffles?" The Girl answers but seems more like she was asking a question.
"Souffles? Against the Daleks? Where'd you get the milk?" Mum asks her.
"This conversation is irrelevant." The White Dalek interrupts.
"No, it isn't," Mum answers. the connection seems to have been lost as Mum and the Dalek were arguing. "Because a starliner has crashed into your Asylum, and someone's got in. And if someone can get in, then everything can get out. A tsunami of insane Daleks. Even you don't want that." Mum argues.
"The Asylum must be cleansed." White Dalek states they always seem to want violence.
"Then why is it still here? You've enough firepower on this ship to blast it out of the sky." Dad argues with it.
"The Asylum forcefield is impenetrable," Darla informs us.
"Turn it off," I argue.
"It can only be turned off from within the Asylum," Darla informs us as it were our problem.
"A small task force could sneak through a forcefield. Send in a couple of Daleks. Oh." Mum begins to say before stopping and starts clapping. "Oh. Oh, that's good. That's brilliant. You're all too scared to go down there. Not one of you will go, so tell me, what do the Daleks do when they're too scared?" She asks them.
"The Predator of the Daleks will be deployed." White Dalek reports I guess it means Mum and Dad.
"You don't have a Predator, and even if you did, why would they turn off a force field for you?" Dad asks okay seriously even Mum was looking at him in annoyance.
"Because you will have no other means of escape." Dalek PM threatens us.
"May I clarify? The Predator is the Dalek's word for you." Darla tells us pointing at Mum and Dad.
"Me? Us?" Dad says looking around confused.
"Who else did you think it was going to be?" Mum asks him.
"You will need this. It will protect you from the nanocloud." Darla informs us. Two more humanoids put wristbands on Mum and Dad's wrist along with me after them.
"The what? The nano what?" Dad asked her.
"The gravity beam will convey you close to the source of the transmission. You must find a way to deactivate the forcefield from there." Darla tells us.
"You're going to fire me at a planet? That's your plan? I get fired at a planet and expected to fix it." Mum asks them.
"In fairness, that is slightly your M-O," Rory argues looking at my parents.
"Don't be fair to the Daleks when they're firing me at a planet," Dad says looking at Rory and Mum wasn't looking too happy either, I knew how she felt then Rory and Amy have wristbands put on them, too. Ha. Looks like we weren't the only ones.
"What do you want with them?" Mum asks the Daleks.
"It is known the Doctor required companions." White Dalek states. Great.
"Oh, brilliant. Good oh." Rory complains like he had much choice.
"Don't worry. We'll get through this, I promise. Don't be scared." Dad tells her and Amy looks well not scared it was more Rory than anything.
"Scared? Who's scared. Geronimo." Amy says with some bravado.
"Ha! Oi!" Dad says realizing that she had stolen his word. The humanoids push us into the gravity beam.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"Argh!" As we plummet to our death. Okay, maybe not but it did feel like it, we scream more Amy and Rory than anything from what I could hear.
"Wrong way up! Wrong way up!" Rory screams as we continue to descend getting closer to the planet. Rory was going past us all head first. Not, a good sign.
"Doctor!" Amy shouts in concern as the beams split up into five.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
I land on a snowy landscape with a brilliant blue sky. I saw Mum and Dad not too far from me I get up patting the snow from my clothes. Wish I could have dressed warmer now. I walk over as Dad was seeming to be having a conversation with a Dalek eyepiece. "Souffle girl?" Dad asks it. Weird. Okay, not that weird.
"You can always call me Oswin, seeing as that's my name. You okay?" Oswin tells Dad.
"How are you doing that, eh? This is Dalek technology." Dad asks her.
"It's very easy to hack," Oswin answers.
"No, it isn't. Where are you?" Mum argues with her. My Mum would know seeing as she can hack into anything. Even Dalek technology but it took awhile for her to get in.
"The ship broke up when it hit. Somewhere underground, I think. You coming to get me?" Oswin asks us.
"Doctor?" Amy calls out. "Frost?" She calls out again. "Angel?" She calls yet again.
"Hey! Oi! Souffle girl!" Dad calls out but there was no response. "Come back!" He shouts this time.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"Doctor!" Amy shouts.
"Amy! Hey, where's Rory?" Mum asks her seeing as he was her companion.
"There was another beam. There. Over there. Are you the rescue team?" The Man asks us as we run across the snow.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
There was a shaft that had been drilled through the snow and rock. "Rory? Rory! Rory!" Amy kept shouting.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"We came down two days ago. There's twelve of our escape pods. I don't know what happened to them." Harvey explains to us.
"Alaska? That's the same ship as souffle girl." Amy points out as Harvey opens a hatch covered in snow.
"Yeah. Except she's been here a year." Mum tells her.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"We should have some climbing rope long enough for that hole," Harvey tells us.
"Won't you introduce us to your crew?" Mum asks him.
"Ah, yes, sorry. Guys, this is the Doctor, Frost, Angel, and Amy." Harvey introduces us but there was no response. "Guys?" He questions and the crew were desiccated corpses. Gross. "Oh, my god." He gasps. Dad was quick to do a scan of one of them.
"They're dead. All of them." Dad says. Like it wasn't plain to see.
"That's not possible. I just spoke to them. Two hours ago. We were doing engine repairs." Harvey argues.
"You're sure about that, are you? Because I'd say they've all been dead for a very long time." Mum questions him to make sure.
"But they can't have been," Harvey argues against it again.
"Well, they didn't get in this state in two hours." Amy points out.
"No, of course. Stupid me." Harvey says looking calm.
"Of course what?" I ask him.
"I died outside, and the cold preserved my body. I forgot about dying." Harvey tells us as if it were nothing and out popped the Dalek eyepiece. Dad grabbed for something turning out to be the CO2 fire extinguisher and lets it off in Harvey's face.
"Amy, the door!" Mum shouts at her.
"Come on, come on," Amy grumbles as she tried to sort out the door as Harvey is backed through the door that Amy managed to get open, then I close and locked it again. "Explain. That's what you're good at. How'd he get all Daleked?" Amy asks looking at Mum.
"Because he wasn't wearing one of these. Oh, ho, ho. That's clever. The nanocloud. Microorganisms that automatically process any organic matter, living or dead, into a Dalek puppet. Anything attacks this place, it automatically becomes part of the on-site security." Mum explains to her.
"Living or dead?" I repeat looking behind us.
"These wristbands protect us. The only thing stopping us going exactly the way he did..." Dad continues to explain but was cut off by Amy who had caught on to what I had said.
"Doctor, shut up! Living or dead?" Amy asks repeating what I had said.
"Yes, exactly. Living or, or" Dad begins saying but soon caught on to as to what we were saying as the corpses had glowing eyepieces, and were starting to move.
"Dead. Oh dear." Dad finishes, he kicks one of the zombies as he and the rest of us get into the cockpit.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Dad pulled Mum's arm out of one of the zombie's grasp as Amy and I seal the bulkhead door.
"Is it bad that I've really missed this?" Amy asks us.
"Yes." All three of us answers.
"Good." Amy smiles at us.
"I know." I smile back at her.
"Unauthorized personnel may not enter the cockpit." The voice of Oswin comes onto the speaker.
"Shut up." Mum snaps, not good.
"Oh, Miss Grumpy." Oswin jokes. Not a good idea. "Bad combo. No sense of humor or that chin." She jokes again.
"Is that her again, souffle girl?" Amy asks.
"Yeah, she. Oi, what is wrong with my chin?" Dad asks and looks at Mum as if she had the answer.
"Careful, dear. You'll put someone's eye out." Mum laughs out.
"Scanning you. You're in another of the escape pods from the Alaska, right?" Oswin asks. Strange. "Same ship I was on." She adds.
"How can you hack into everything? It should be impossible. You're in a crashed ship!" Mum asks her.
"Long story. Is there a word for total screaming genius that sounds modest and a tiny bit sexy?" Oswin asks.
"Frost. You know this stuff right?" Dad asks her.
"Yeah," Mum answers. "But Reaper does too," she adds. I wasn't too good with technology Reaper got that from Mum but I did get my species knowledge from her.
"See what you did there." Oswin laughs and there was a beeping sound. "Check the floor. I'm picking up a breach at floor level. There could be a way out. See you later."
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"Ah ha! Hatch. Looks like it's been used already and they've tried to block it off behind them." Dad says.
"Can't imagine why" Amy comments.
"The lower part of the pod is buried, so this must go straight down to the Asylum," Mum replies.
"Where Rory is." Amy sort of demands.
"Speaking of Rory, is there anything you want to tell me?" Mum asks her.
"Are we going to do this now?" Amy asks back
"What happened?" Mum asks her.
"Oh, stuff. You know. We split up. What can you do?" Amy replies.
"What can I do?" Mum asks her.
"Nothing. It's not one of those things you can fix like you fix his bow tie. Don't give me those big wet eyes, Raggedy Man. It's life. Just life. That thing that goes on when you're not there." Amy says and Dad gets the hatch open. A shaft heads down into the planet, with a flexible metal ladder hanging down it. "Okay, so somebody else got out this way, then."
"Yeah, let's go and find them. Oh, hello, hello, hello. What are they up to?" Dad asks and the zombies are on a small monitor on the wall, waving something at the camera.
"What's that?" I ask.
"One of these," Dad says pointing to his own wristband. "But where did they get it?" Dad asks.
"Doctor, they got it from me." Amy answers.
"Oh, Amy," I say looking at her in worry.
"Doctor, what's going to happen to me? Seriously. Tell me what." Amy asks him.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
We were climbing down the ladder from the cockpit into another corridor. "So tell me, what's going to happen to me? And don't lie. Because I know when you're lying to me and I will definitely fall on you." Amy demands.
"The air all around is full of micro-machines. Robots the size of molecules. Nano-genes. Now that you're unprotected, you're being re-written." Mum explains to her.
"So, what happens? I get one of those things sticking out of my head?" Amy asks.
"Physical changes come later," Mum adds.
"What comes first? How does it start?" Amy asks us again.
"With your mind. Your feelings, your memories, and I'm sorry but it's started already." Mum tells her.
"How do you know?" Amy asks again.
"Because we've had this conversation four times," I tell her.
"Okay, scared now," Amy says.
"Hang on to scared. Scared isn't Dalek." Dad tells her.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
As the door rises to let Amy, Mum, Dad and I into some place. The bad-tempered pepper pots are still repeating their favorite word some way away. Dad sniffs. Great. "What's that?" Amy asks and we go back out again.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"Keep a look out. Don't open this door. Oswin!" Dad raises his voice. "Oswin, can you hear me," He asks.
"Hello, the chin. I have visual on you." Oswin states.
"Why don't I have a visual on you? Why can't I ever see you?" Dad asks her.
"Limited power, bad hair, take your pick. There's a door to your left. Open it. I'm going to send you a map to that screen. I put your little friend somewhere safe. I can get you to him." Oswin tells us.
"Rory. You found Rory?" Mum asks.
"I call him Nina. Personal thing. Hush now." Oswin says and Amy looks through the transparent panels in the door.
"Who are you? Doctor?" Amy asks. Weird.
"How many Daleks directly ahead of me right now?" Dad asks her.
"Ten, twenty. Hard to say. Some of them are catatonic but they do have firepower." Oswin warns us.
"How do I get past them? Amy!" Dad shouts after her.
"Shush. It's okay, it's just people in here. It's just people." Amy replies in a sort of daze.
"Amy, it's the nanocloud, it's altering your perception. Look again. Look again. Those aren't people." Mum tells her. "Amy, come out. Take my hand. Run! Run!" We ran back to the rope ladder, which is moving under the weight of descending zombies.
"Look, they're coming down!" Amy shouts.
"Er, oh yes, they are." Dad stutters out.
"Intruder." A Dalek announces.
"Run," I orders.
"Intruder." The Dalek repeats. We hid in the cubby hole Oswin opened for us. "Intruder," it repeats again. It runs out of power. We came out of the cubby hole again.
"It's damaged," Mum states looking at The Dalek.
"Okay, but what do we do?" Amy asks her.
"Identify me. Access your files. Who am I? Come on. Who's your daddy?" Dad asks it and I want to add something but thought against it.
"You are the Predator." The Dalek answers.
"Access your standing orders concerning the Predator," Mum orders it.
"The Predator must be destroyed." The Dalek answers.
"And how are you going to do that, Dalek? Without a gun, you're a tricycle with a roof. How are you going to destroy me?" Dad asks it.
"Self-destruct initiated." The Dalek reports.
"What's it doing?" Amy asks.
"It's going to blow itself up, and I with it. Only weapon it's got left." Mum tells her.
"Self-destruct cannot be countermanded." The Dalek reports, Mum looks inside to see that the internal clock is down to 12. Mum lifts its creepy lid and scans inside.
"I'm not looking for a countermand, dear. I'm looking for reverse." Mum says.
"Forward, forward." The Dalek reports and it whizzes backward into the chamber, bumps into a colleague and blows up.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
We were still in the room when Rory runs into seeing the smoking remains of Dalek shells. "Oswin? What happened? Who killed all the Daleks?" Rory asks as we enter as Dad was carrying Amy.
"Who do you think?" I ask him.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Dad lays Amy on the teleport pad. "Will sleeping help her? Will it slow down the process?" Rory asks.
"You'd better hope so because pretty soon she's going to try and kill you," Oswin informs us.
"Amy." Mum calls out and Amy seems to be waking ups as she groans in pain. "Amy. Still with us." She asks her.
"Amy, it's me. Do you remember me?" Rory asks her and in reply, Amy slaps him. "She remembers me.
"Same old Amy." I joke slightly.
"Do you know how you make someone into a Dalek? Subtract love, add anger. Doesn't she seem a bit too angry to you?" Oswin informs us.
"Well, somebody's never been to Scotland." Amy snaps in her usual tone.
"What about you, though, Oswin. How come you're okay?" Dad asks her.
"Why hasn't the nanocloud converted you?" Mum asks her.
"I mentioned the genius thing, yeah? Shielded in here." Oswin answers. Strange.
"Clever of you. Now, this place. The Daleks said it was fully automated. Look at it. It's a wreck." Mum groans.
"Well, I've had nearly a year to mess with them, and not a lot else to do," Oswin says.
"A junior entertainment manager hiding out in a wrecked ship, hacking the security systems of the most advanced warrior race the universe has ever seen. But you know what really gets me about you, Oswin? The soufflés. Where do you get milk for the soufflés?" Dad asks her. "Seriously. Is no one else wondering about that?" He asks.
"No. Frankly, no. Twice." Rory snaps.
"So, Doctor. I've been looking you up. You're all over the database. Why do the Daleks call you the Predator?" Oswin asks.
"I'm not the Predator, I'm just a man with a plan," Dad replies.
"You've got a plan?" Oswin asks.
"That's all he is," Rory said.
"There's a nose joke going if someone wants to pick that one off," Amy said.
"In no particular order, we need to neutralize all the Daleks in this Asylum, rescue Oswin from the wreckage, escape from this planet and fix Amy and Rory's marriage," Mum says.
"Okay, I'm counting three lost causes. Anyone else?" Amy asks looking around.
"Oswin, there's a Dalek ship in orbit," Mum says.
"Yes. Got it on the sensors." Oswin answers.
"The Asylum has a forcefield. The Daleks upstairs are waiting for me to turn it off. Soon as I do, they'll burn this whole world and us with it." Mum explains.
"So, Oswin, my question is this. How fast can you drop the forcefield?" Dad asks her.
"Pretty fast. But why would I?" Oswin asks him.
"Because this is a teleport. Am I right, Oswin?" Dad asks her.
"Yeah. Internal use only." Oswin says.
"I can boost the power. Once the forcefield is down, I can use it to beam us right off this planet." Mum tells her.
"You said when the forcefield is down, the Daleks will blow us up," Rory comments.
"We'll have to be quick, yes," Dad adds.
"Fine, we'll be quick. But where do we beam to?" Amy asks.
"The only place within range. The Dalek ship." Mum answers.
"They'll exterminate us on the spot," Amy argues.
"Ah, so this is the kind of escape plan where you survive about four seconds longer." Rory comments.
"What's wrong with four seconds? You can do loads in four seconds. Oswin, how fast can you drop the forcefield?" Mum asks her.
"I can do it from here, as soon as you come and get me." Oswin answers.
"No, just drop the forcefield and come to us," Mum argues.
"There's enough power in that teleport for one go. Why would you wait for me?" Oswin asks us.
"Why wouldn't I?" Mum argues back.
"No idea. Never met you. Sending you a map so you can come get me." Oswin tells Mum.
"This place is crawling with Daleks," Rory argues.
"Yeah. Kind of why I'm anxious to leave. Come up and see me sometime." Oswin says.
"So, are we going to go get her?" Rory asks.
"I don't think that we have a choice. Okay, as soon as the forcefield is down the Daleks will attack. If it gets too explody-wody in here, you go without us, okay?" Dad tells us.
"And leave you to die?" Rory asks.
"Oh, don't worry about me. You're the one beaming up to a Dalek ship to get exterminated." Mum argues.
"Fair point. Love this plan. What about Amy?" Rory asks.
"Keep her remembering, keep her focused. That'll hold back the conversion." Mum tells us.
"What do I do?" Amy asks.
"You heard what she said. They're subtracting love. Don't let them." Mum warns her.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Frost's POV:
The Doctor makes his way carefully through the corridor. "Emergency. Emergency. Prepare to be annihilated. Emergency. We are the Daleks. We are the Daleks." The Daleks report.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Angel's POV:
"Okay, look at me. I'm going to be logical. Cold and logical, okay? For both of our sakes, for both of us, I'm going to take this off my wrist and put it on yours." Rory tells Amy.
"Why? Then it'll just start converting you. That's not better." Amy argues.
"Yes, but it'll buy us time because it'll take longer with me," Rory argues.
"Sorry, what?" Amy asks him.
"It subtracts love, that's what she said," Rory tells her.
"What's that got to do with it? What does that even mean?" Amy asks him.
"It's arithmetic. It'll take longer with me because we both know, we've always known, that. Amy, the basic fact of our relationship is that I love you more than you love me, which today is good news because it might just save both of our lives." Rory argues.
"How can you say that?" Amy asks him.
"Two thousand years, waiting for you outside a box. Don't say it isn't true, you know it's true. Give me your arm. Amy!" Rory argues and Amy slaps Rory.
"Don't you dare say that to me. Don't you ever dare." Amy snaps at him.
"Amy, you kicked me out," Rory shouts.
"You want kids. You have always wanted kids. Ever since you were a kid. And I can't have them." Amy tells him tears welling up in her eyes.
"I know," Rory adds.
"Whatever they did to me at Demons Run, I can't ever give you children. I didn't kick you out. I gave you up." Amy tells him. I really wanted out of here seeing as this is somewhere I don't want to be.
"Amy, I don't..." Rory tries saying.
"Don't you dare talk to me about waiting outside a box, because that is nothing, Rory, nothing, compared to giving you up." Amy cries.
"Just give me your arm. Let me put this on you. Just give me your arm!" Rory argues.
"Don't touch me!" Amy shouts and she was already wearing a wristband.
"It's Frost's. When you were sleeping..." Rory says.
"That Time Lord. What's the betting she doesn't even need it." Amy says and looked at me.
"Why didn't you just tell us?" Rory asks me and I look at Dad and Mum as she straightened Dad's bow tie on the monitor.
"Oswin, I think I'm close," Mum states.
"You are. Less than twenty feet away. Which is the good news." Oswin announces.
"Okay. And the bad which I suddenly feel is coming?" Dad asks.
"You're about to pass through Intensive Care," Oswin tells them.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Frost's POV:
We entered a room with the Daleks here are in cages. "What's so special about this lot, then?" The Doctor asks her.
"Don't know. Survivors of particular wars. Spiridon, Kembel, Eridius, Vulcan, Exxilon. Ringing any bells?" Oswin asks us.
"All of them." We answer together.
"Yeah? How?" Oswin asks us.
"These are the Daleks who survived us." We answer again.
"Doctor. Frost." A Dalek calls.
"Doctor. Frost." Another Dalek calls.
"Doctor. Frost." The Daleks all calls.
"That's weird. Those ones don't usually wake up for anything." Oswin announces.
"Yeah, well special visitor. Okay, door, but it won't open. We can't be far away, though." I say.
"Hang on. Not quite sure. There's a release code. Let me just check if anything is out there?" Oswin asks us.
"No." We answer.
"Hang on, I'm trying to think," Oswin says. One of the Daleks has been disarmed, literally, and chained up.
"Doctor. Frost." The Dalek calls and it's chains broke. "Doctor. Frost. Doctor. Frost." It kept calling to us.
"Oswin, get this door open." The Doctor tells her.
"Oswin, open this door!" I shout at her.
"I can't!" Oswin shouts back.
"Oswin." We call out to her as the Daleks get closer to us. "Just get this door open!" We shout at her. "Oswin! Oswin, please! Get this door open! Help us!" We shout and a plunger is heading for the Doctor's face. "Stop!" I shout and the Daleks stop, then they turn away.
"Oh, that is cool. Tell me I'm cool, chin boy." Oswin cheers.
"What, what did you do?" The Doctor asks her.
"Hang on, I think I've found the door thingy," Oswin tells us.
"No, tell me what you did." The Doctor demands.
"The Daleks, they have a hive mind. Well, they don't, they have a sort of telepathic web." Oswin informs us.
"The path web, yes." I correct her.
"I hacked into it, did a mass delete on all the information connected with the Doctor and Frost. And some guy named Reaper too." Oswin tells us.
"You made them forget us?" I ask her.
"Good, eh? And here comes the door." Oswin says and the door rises.
"I've tried hacking into the path web. Even I couldn't do it. Well, Frost could but it took her awhile." The Doctor argues.
"Come and meet the girl who can. Hey, you're right outside. Come on in." Oswin tells us.
"Oswin, we have a problem," I tell her.
"No, we don't. Don't even say that. Joined the Alaska to see the universe, ended up stuck in a shipwreck first time out. Rescue me, chin boy, and show me the stars." Oswin says.
"Does it look real to you?" The Doctor asks her.
"Does what look real?" Oswin asks us.
"Where you are right now," I ask her catching onto what the Doctor was going on about.
"Does it seem real?" The Doctor asks her.
"It is real," Oswin argues.
"It's a dream, Oswin. You dreamed it for yourself because the truth was too terrible." I tell her.
"Where am I?" Oswin asks us. It seemed she was really a Dalek that had been chained down on a podium. "Where am I? Where am I?" Dalek Oswin asks us.
"Because you are a Dalek." I broke the news to her.
"I am not a Dalek. I am not a Dalek!" Dalek Oswin screams denying the truth. "I'm human," she argues.
"You were human when you crashed here. It was you who climbed out of the pod. That was your ladder." I tell her.
"You mean?" Dalek Oswin asks. "Human." She said.
"Not anymore. Because you're right. You're a genius. And the Daleks need genius. They didn't just make you a puppet, they did a full conversion." I tell her.
"Oswin, I am so sorry, but you are a Dalek. The milk, Oswin. The milk and the eggs for the soufflés. Where, where did it all come from?" The Doctor asks her.
"Eggs. I'm human. I am not a Dalek, I am human. I am not Dalek, I am human! Eggs." Oswin Dalek tries saying.
"It wasn't real. It was never real." The Doctor tells her.
"I am a Dalek. I am a Dalek." Dalek Oswin said. "Eggs," she says again. "Stir. Min. Ate." she tries saying again.
"Oswin." We whisper.
says"Oswin. No, no, no, Oswin. Oswin." We try to say.
"Exterminate!" Dalek Oswin shouts.
"Listen. Oswin, you don't have to do this." I tell her.
"Exterminate!" Dalek Oswin shouts again.
"Oswin!" We shout.
"Why do they hate you two so much? They hate you two so much. Why?" Dalek Oswin asks us.
"We fought them many, many times." The Doctor tells her.
"We have grown stronger in fear of you." Dalek Oswin tells us.
"I know. I tried to stop." The Doctor says
"Then run." Dalek Oswin tells us.
"What did you say?" I ask her.
"I've taken down the forcefield. The Daleks above have begun their attack. Run!" Dalek Oswin tells us.
"Oswin, are you..." I try to ask her.
"I am Oswin Oswald. I fought the Daleks and I am human! Remember me." Dalek Oswin tells us.
"Thank you." We tell her.
"Run!" Dalek Oswin shouts after us and the Doctor and I ran as the bombardment started.

3RD POV:
"Run, you clever boy, you marvelous girl. And remember." Oswin whispers.

Angel's POV:
"How long can we wait?" Rory asks.
"The rest of our lives," Amy says.
"Agreed," Rory says and they kissed as things around us go bang and Mum and Dad run into the room.
"Right, go! Let's go. We're good. Let's go. Oh, for God's sake." Dad says and he takes the control unit from Rory and activates it. Nothing appears to happens.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
"The Asylum is destroyed." White Dalek states.
"Incoming teleport from Asylum planet. We are under attack." Dalek informs.
"Prepare to defend. Defend. Defend!" White Dalek orders.
"Explain, Dalek Supreme." Dalek PM demands.
"You know, you guys should really have seen this coming. The thing about me and teleports, I've got a really good aim. Pinpoint accurate, in fact. Or, to put it another way..." Dad says as he looked out of the TARDIS door. "Suckers!" He shouts.
"Identify yourself. Identify. Identify." The Dalek demands.
"It's me. You know me. The Doctor. The Oncoming Storm. The Predator. And my wife Frost. The Ice Queen." Dad says trying to jog their memories.
"Titles are not meaningful in this context. Doctor who?" Darla asks us.
"Doctor who?" Dalek PM asks him.
"Doctor who?" The Daleks all asks.
"Oh, Oswin. Oh, you did it to them all. You beauty." Mum smiles.
"Doctor who? Doctor who?" The Daleks repeats.
"Fellas, you're never going to stop asking." I joke and he shuts the door and we dematerialise.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Amy and Rory wave goodbye as the TARDIS dematerialises.
=ANGEL'S JOURNAL=
Dad starts to dance around the controls as he flips a few switches and Mum laughs as he makes her join in. "Doctor who. Doctor Who. Doctor Who!" Dad and Mum laugh and I smile.
