The Bizarre Adventures of Doctor Who

The Lady & the Giant Pt. 6

It's hard explaining to someone how Lila wound up in this situation, waiting in a back alley for a giantess, hoping that Lila convinces her that she didn't need a drug addicted salacious mob boss or a giantess taller than her that also has underlying reasons for wanting her.

Outside conspiracy theorists, nobody would've believed her if she tried telling them anything.

Hell, even the conspiracy theorists would've thought she's crazy!

Here she is waiting with Theodore after he narrowly convinced Kira via telepathy that she needed to find them.

Al's dealing with Annika, happy that he's just an avatar, and not the physical being he took the form from, else, well, Theodore won't hear the end of it.

"Wonder why you couldn't even make a blimp in Annika's mind," Lila wondered why Theodore couldn't read Annika's mind, despite their constant run-ins with aliens and the like, he shouldn't have problems with a simple peak.

As he waited by the bricked wall, Theodore replied that the only thing he came up with's that she's cagey.

Since he never encountered the species, she's from before, he doesn't have a frame of reference how their minds worked, with Annika cagey about anyone finding out what she done, she's naturally keeping her thoughts hidden away.

Al couldn't find anything on what Annika is, what he found's only stories told about tall witches or whatever the like's the flavor for the century, stealing children, things, whatnot.

Nothing concrete, but he gave his opinion that Annika's the only one in existence, given he hadn't found anything else suggesting there's others like her.

With the way the stories originated, it's hard for him to find out for sure, maybe she isn't the only one, but maybe she is, can't make heads or tails with chicken scratches.

Maybe that's what drove her into taking children and Kira, she's the only one of her kind left, this her only way making a mark.

Don't know, Al can't search that far into it, due to the circumstances, and him focusing his machinery on keeping himself alive.

If he finds something, he'll pass it forward.

Until then, he's trying to womanize as his counterpart was known for, and hates every minute of it from the sound of things. He made it clear to Theodore during this, he wants compensation from this on top of the repairs.

A box of fine whisky, 1200 proof.

Theodore told him he'll try his best, but the TARDIS made it clear it wasn't enjoying this at all.

"You think she'll change her mind?" Lila asks Theodore as he looked towards the entrance of the alleyway, they're supposed to meet Kira in, away from prying eyes, unaffiliated with any gangs, and quiet.

As he looked through the entrance, seeing the cobbled road, a soft hue coming from the torches along the side of the road, Theodore replied he doesn't think so, Kira's much afraid of Annika as she is Jimmy.

"What'll we do if it goes south, what if she wants him dead?" Lila asks the possibility of Kira wanting him dead, not that Lila blamed her, but it's a question she wanted an answer for in case it comes to pass.

Thinking quietly to himself, Theodore replies it'll be difficult, but if he had to choose, if it comes to pass that Kira wanted blood for years of mistreatment, they'll have to contend with that and Annika.

Annika murdered those people, including the banker and his family.

Jimmy's no saint, but someone like Annika couldn't be left unchecked. The only reason's that Jimmy's human and with enough years, he'll sink into the sands of time. His name and his legacy ended by someone bigger than him.
