Magical Mix-Up - A Doctor Who/Legends of Tomorrow Crossover

Chapter 9

Cisco walked back onto the bridge after getting a drink to find Sara, Zari and Jax just outside the parlor looking guilty while Gideon was glaring at them.

"What did I miss?"

"It turns out that we kidnapped the wrong guy," Jax winced. "And he's now on his own, lost in the past."

Cisco grimaced. "Okay. What's the plan?"

Sara winced. "John went out to find who we thought was Rip but he hasn't come back and isn't answering any of our calls. Can you see or sense anything?"

Grimacing, Cisco shrugged. "Vibing doesn't exactly work like that but if you have something that belongs to Constantine that will help me try to make a connection."

Zari walked into the parlor and picked up a book sitting on the desk. "This is John's."

Cisco took a hold gingerly, he really hated this part of his powers, the world around him changed to a dirt floor, and concave walls that went up to the hole in the ceiling and nothing else. Letting go of the book the Waverider's bridge appeared around him once more.

"He's in a prison," Cisco explained, rubbing his eyes to refocus. "It looks like it's underground and there's no way out."

Sara frowned. "Alright, we need to rescue him then we go looking for Rip's double. I still lead the team, Gideon," she added before Gideon could make any comment.

"If you had allowed me to speak," Gideon stated, moving to the main screen, "I was going to advise that his communicator's last known location is here. It is likely it was knocked out at some point. Not far from here is the prison building which will be guarded, not as heavily as during the day but still dangerous."

Studying the map, Sara nodded. "Alright, Zari and Jax come with me. Gideon and Cisco try to work out how we find Rip's double." At Gideon's dark look, Sara quickly added, "Please."

"Of course, Miss Lance," Gideon replied lightly. "Please all be careful. We do not want to rescue any more of you from the cells."

Jax frowned. "What about the Time Couriers? Cant you fix them so we can just grab him out of there?"

"Unfortunately, no," Gideon told him. "One of the components of the couriers were all so damaged within the crash that a new part will require to be synthesized which will take more time than we have."

Zari sighed. "Well that's just typical."

"Suit up and meet in the cargo bay in ten minutes," Sara ordered.

"Ensure you all have your communicators," Gideon added. "So that I can locate you if required."

They nodded and left the bridge. Gideon moved to the main console and rested her hand on it for a moment before she turned to Cisco.

"The Time Sphere is still sitting outside," she noted. "I think it would be a good idea if you took it back to Star Labs."

Cisco frowned. "Are you sure?"

"I am," she smiled at him sweetly. "Thank you for all you have done for me, Mr. Ramon. I appreciate it enormously. Once everyone is safely onboard again, I will return and allow Dr Snow to finish her tests."

"Make sure you do," Cisco replied. "Or she will make me hunt you down."

Laughing, Gideon wrapped her arms around him in a hug, and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "I promise."

Gideon smiled as she watched the Time Sphere return to Star Labs, relieved when the Waverider confirmed it had landed safely back where it had started. That was one thing less she had to worry about. She hoped that the man who the Legends had abducted would accept their help once they admitted they were wrong. But she began the crystal synthesis just in case he did not, as her only other idea was to use the Time Courier and open a portal close to him.
