Doctor Who | The Doctor (2nd) = Caduceus/Alyce

1 - Caduceus Arrival

The cryopod hissed as the seal snapped open and allowed the very rumpled looking man to escape from the deep freeze. His legs swung free and he dropped, a bit shakily, to the metal floorboards.

"Oh... my head... I feel giddy."

He clasped his hands over his face, feeling the contours of his cheeks and nose while trying to will the dizziness to fade. After a few moments it had.

"Mmm, this isn't Earth. Mirror, mirror... I need a mirror."

The shiny surface of one of the interfaces would suffice. He leaned over the console admiring his face in the red reflection of the dials, the right side, the left, he pulled a few funny faces, before he burst out laughing like a maniac at the unseen others he now addressed.

"HAHA! It didn't work did it! I'm still me! You've failed!"


2 - Travel - Baatera

The treehouse was under siege. The friendly Sashute did what they always did in these situations, they pulled up the ladders, removed the bridges, and did their best to fortify themselves in the safest and most secure area of the tree house village complex. The Vecialae were large and not well suited to free climbing so this was in large part a very effective means of keeping the lizard warriors out.

Even more effective was a huge fruit dropped from above which one of the more industrious Sashute decided to employ. This fruit caught one of the Vecialae in the head and knocked him out cold.

"Oo! We'll have to see to him once this is over. That's quite a nasty bump on the head." For the moment there was no safe way to get down to the injured soldier so all the visiting Doctor could do was wince, "Why are they attacking? Has anyone managed to discover that?"


3 - Travel - Teclite

The illness that raged through the colony was unlike any he had seen before. It seemed to hit the children the hardest perhaps because they were so young or because they had fewer cybernetic augmentations... He couldn't say yet and had only these things as theories as he worked with a blood sample on a slide.

"Careful with those samples," He spoke to whomever was working with him in the medical bay, "The last thing we need is this illness infecting the rest of the ship."


4 - Attack - Escape Pods

"Hurry! This way!"

The Doctor held up the emergency exit door for far longer than it should have been allowed but it was the only way to make certain those in the hall beyond had a chance to make it to the pods. He would have held it open longer if the ship hadn't shuddered violently to the right tossing everyone, including the Doctor to the deck. He landed hard, hard enough in fact to knock himself clean out. He might need some help getting into one of those escape pods himself.
