The Time War

Chapter 1: The Beginning of the End

The Doctor had just had the most unpleasant New Years Eve ever, seeing as he had to battle his old enemy the Master. But finally now maybe he could sit down and relax, he thought for a second that maybe he was getting too old for all this running, fighting aliens and basically just being a hero, but the idea soon fled from his mind as fast as it came in, after all he was only in his 8th incarnation.

‘Beep....Beep....Beep’ The Doctor jumped at the strange sound that the Tardis was making, it was a distress call, he pressed one button, then another button...which gave the sense that he really didn’t have a clue how to fly the Tardis but that is another story, so like I was saying, he kept pushing buttons until he gave a loud ‘Aha’. He found that the signal was coming from Gallifrey but what would they want from him?

A hologram of a Time Lord appeared in the Tardis and said this ‘My name is Thita, this is an automated message to all Time Lords who are not in the Citadel or in Gallifrey, you must return home immediately, the situation has never been so dire, you will be expected within the next hour, thank you’ The Doctor sensed that danger was on the horizon so he thought fine, I’ll see what they want.

He arrived at Gallifrey right on time and was surprised to be greeted by quite a warm welcome, a Time Lady appeared and said with a fake welcoming voice” Ah, Doctor always good to see you, follow me to the board room please”

The Doctor followed on, but he sensed something was wrong then it all became clear after the board told him that “When we sent you, in your fourth incarnation to stop the Daleks creation, well...somehow they found out and retaliated!”

The Doctor replied furiously” What...how......when....what did they do?”

“They recently attacked us in retaliation”

“How many loses did we suffer”

“Too many and I assure you Doctor it will never happen again”

“Have you called Susan back?”

“We tried to call your Granddaughter but it seems she is hiding herself from us somehow”

“Well good, I mean I know I haven’t seen her in a long, long time but as long as she is safe I will do anything you ask of me”

“Very well, we wish you to fight against the Daleks in Arcadia”

“With what weapons, we have few weapons that can penetrate the Dalekanium”

“We will be using 3 main weapons”

“Which are what?”

“Black-hole convertors*, Bowships** and N-forms”

“And what known weapons do the Daleks have”

“They have somehow got weapons off the Deathsmiths of Goth***”

“What about the Time Deductive bomb “the Doctor whispered

“How do you know about that?”

“I know a lot of things”

“Yes well you know too much, but yes seeing as you were once president I will tell you where to find it”

“Where?”

“In the triple quantum locked safe behind me”

“How would I get in there?”

“Voice recognition, it recognises any old presidents voice, so you just say your name”

“Right, sure”

“Oh Doctor by the way we changed your name to Doctor seeing as that is what you like to be called”

“Thank you it is much appreciated”

The Doctor went to his ship picked up 2 Black hole convertors, 1 N-form and 1 Bowship; he sat down and just waited to get to the planet of Arcadia.

*Black hole convertors –these little machines turn into black holes.

**Bowships-Shoots bolts of steel-Takes 3 shots to penetrate a Dalek and kill it

***Deathsmiths of Goth-They were once more feared by the Universe than the Daleks were, they create the most terrifying weapons in the Universe.

Cool! This is great! I like your references to a few of the actual 'space-related' stuff that the Doctor talks a bit about in the current series. Well done! I'm gonna read the rest now.
