A few hours had passed, The Doctor traveling with Jack and knocked out Master. With a heavy sigh the man leaned against his console, his legs crossed at the ankles, his arms over his chest as he stood there his eyes moving about the main room of the TARDIS. They'd been traveling for awhile and the Doctor had put Jack to keep a watch on the Master until he awoke. Which after several moments wasn't too long after hearing the Master's voicing booming his name from the lower levels. With a heavy sigh the Time Lord reached up and pinched the bridge of his nose "Time to get this carnival started" shaking his head the Doctor ventured down to the room that the Master was in.

As soon as he opened the door and entered he looked to the Master, quirking a brow at his sudden words but he answered immediately with "Killing you would be a pleasure to you at this point, Master. This is actually your punishment. I know you loathe me and I know you can't stand being here with me in the TARDIS. So what better way than to keep you here?" a semi-taunting smirk curling upon his lips

The Doctor's brown eyes moved to the Immortal "I know he is… and it hurts but this is his punishment for everything he's done. I will not kill him. He may be evil but he's a Time Lord.. he and I are the last of the Time Lords. I refuse to let him die. At this point it would be an easy way out of his suffering at this point. Can't have that happen." The Master spoke again bringing the Doctor's attention to him. The Time Lord listened to his words a chuckle escaping his lips "Well.." he spoke in his usual exaggerated tone "I don't plan on having you enjoy your stay here, Master." an amused look played upon the Doctor's face. "Every second you're with me here, is pain for you due to how much you despise me."

Stepping closer to the Master he leaned in and stared into those hazel brown eyes of the Master "You've caused so much pain and destruction. So many lives have been lost due to your hands. Some of them very good friends of mine. Everyone on earth wants you dead, Master. I am not going to allow that to happen. So in a sense. I'm keeping you alive, just out of their grasp" a Cheshire cat type grin formed upon the Doctor's lips "Because even if anger and malice burn in your hearts, You're still a son of Gallifrey and I will not let you fall " he reached out and ruffled the Master's hair "there is a vial for pain, from the planet of Mystrilla. Take it. you'll need it with those Drums of yours" 

Turning the Doctor headed out of the room with Jack following. The Doctor pulled out his sonic and locked the door to keep the Master locked in so he wouldn't be able t oroam around the TARDIS. "You can't be serious Doc!" Jack was angered at this point as he followed the Doctor into the kitchen.

"I am" was all the Doctor replied with as he began to brew a pot of tea.
