Sun Filter Descending. Sun filter rising. Sun filter rising. The Doctor tried to open the door but they wouldn't open. "The whole thing's jammed. I can't open the doors. Stay there!" Before she ran away. Earth Death in five minutes. When she reached the observation deck, everyone was panicking basically. Jabe was speaking. "The metal machine confirms. The spider devices have infiltrated the whole of Platform One." Then, Liam was speaking. "How's that possible? Our private rooms are protected by a code wall. Moisturise me, moisturise me." Then, Moxx spoke. "Summon the Steward." "I'm afraid the Steward is dead." Jabe said. Moxx spoke next. "Who killed him?" Then, Liam was speaking loudly trying to blame. "This whole event was sponsored by the Face of Boe. He invited us. Talk to the Face. Talk to the Face."
The Face shook it's head in denial. Then, the Doctor made her entrance. "Easy way of finding out. Someone bought their little pet on board. Let's send him back to master." The Doctor puts down the spider that Jabe was scanning, and it scuttles off to Liam and scans him, then goes to the black gowned group. "The Adherents of the Repeated Meme. J'accuse!" Liam, once again, said in blame. But, the Doctor was not amused and didn't fall for it. "That's all very well, and really kind of obvious, but if you stop and think about it..." She goes over to the Adherants. Their leader tries to hit her, so she pulls of it's arm. "A Repeated Meme is just an idea. And that's all they are, an idea." She pulls one of the wires dangling from the arm, and the Adherants all collapse.
"Remote controlled Droids. Nice little cover for the real troublemaker. Go on, Jimbo. Go home."The Doctor gives the spider a nudge with her foot, and it returns to Liam. "I bet you were the school prude and never got kissed. At arms!" Liam yelled at the Doctor, the last part aimed at her assistant. His attendants raise their spray guns. The Doctor scoffs before mocking her. "What are you going to do, moisturise me?" She said in a teasing voice. "With acid. Oh, you're too late, anyway. My spiders have control of the mainframe. Oh, you all carried them as gifts, tax free, past every code wall. I'm not just as handsome face." This caused the Doctor to scoff. "Not even that." She mumbled under her breath. "Sabotaging a ship while you're still inside it? How stupid's that?"
"I'd hoped to manufacture a hostage situation with myself as one of the victims. The compensation would have been enormous." The Doctor scoffed, looking at Liam in disgust. "Five billion years and it still comes down to money." "Do you think it's cheap, looking like this? Flatness costs a fortune. I am the last human, Doctor. Me. Not that freaky little kid of yours." Moxx spoke up. "Arrest her, the infidel" "Oh, shut it, pixie. I've still got my final option." Liam said with purpose. Earth Death in three minutes. "And here it comes. You're just as useful dead, all of you. I have shares in your rival companies and they'll triple in price as soon as you're dead. My spiders are primed and ready to destroy the safety systems. How did that old Earth song go? Burn, baby, burn." Liam said with an ugly glare.
"Then you'll burn with us." Jabe said, being the honorable person he is. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I know the use of teleportation is strictly forbidden, but I'm such a naughty thing. Spiders, activate. There are a series of explosions. "Forcefields gone with the planet about to explode. At least it'll be quick. Just like my fifth wife. Oh, shame on me." Safety systems failing. "Bye, bye, darlings. Bye, bye, my darlings." And Liam and his assistants beamed away. Heat levels rising. "Reset the computer." Moxx suggested. Jabe quickly shot that down. "Only the Steward would know how." The Doctor was quick to respond. "No. We can do it by hand. There must be a system restore switch. Jabe, come on. You lot, just chill." She said to them with a smirk before she left, Jabe trailing behind her. Heat rising.
Heat levels critical. The Computer said as the Doctor and Jabe arrived into the room. "Oh. And guess where the switch is." It was on the other side of the turning razor sharp fans. Heat levels rising. Heat levels rising. The Doctor pulls a breaker lever and the fans slow a little, but it resets as soon as he lets go of it. External temperature five thousand degrees. Jabe pulls the breaker and holds it down. The Doctor shakes her head, concern in her eyes. "You can't. The heat's going to vent through this place." "I know." But, The Doctor wasn't giving up. "Jabe, you're made of wood." "Then stop wasting time, Time Lady." Heat levels rising. Heat levels rising. And in the room Dexter was in, the glass started cracking. The light coming in.
Heat levels critical. Heat levels critical. The Doctor looks back at Jabe, then times her run past the second fan. Heat levels rising. Heat levels rising. Jabe starts to combust. He lets go of the breaker and the fans speed up to faster than before until they are just a blur. Planet explodes in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five The Doctor loses her eyes and focuses. It was as if time slowed down She could hear the sound of the fans going by but, it was as if time had no meaning and she had all the time in the world. So, she took a deep breath before walking past the fan. Four. She opens her eyes, realises she is safe and dashes for the reset breaker. "Raise shields!" One. A forcefield envelopes Platform One as the Earth starts to boil, then explodes. Exoglass repair. Exoglass repair. Exoglass repair. Exoglass repair. In the engine rooms, the fans have slowed right down for the Doctor to walk back easily to Jabe's smoking remains. "Jabe." She mutters and looks down in sadness before she felt anger bubble up inside her. Her eyes darkened with rage to a inky black color before she then stomped out of the room.
