Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space - Book One

V1 E6 - 'Dalekmania' (II)

The Daleks finally breach the defences scattered around the perimeter of south west London. UNIT soldiers fall like dominos as the population of London continue to retreat further north to avoid the Dalek invasion - but soon they will be caught in the crossfire.
"Exterminate!" a Dalek screams with ferocity. Aiming at the UNIT soldiers, their screams aren't ones of ferocity, they are ones of agony.

The men continue to fall like chess pieces as the Daleks advance. Some decide to cower in fear in their homes, attempting to be left unnoticed. They are unsuccessful - the Daleks locate them, break into their homes, and violently exterminating them. Bodies of dead UNIT soldiers are readied for mutation into Daleks, and ones deemed not useful are burned for fuel to help the Daleks launch a true full scale invasion of Earth.

Back on the mothership hidden above London, the Supreme Dalek begins questioning some of his operatives.
"Report, how long until we can call for Dalek reinforcements?" it asks.
"Current prediction states that approximately 471 humans are required for stealthy transition of distress call for Dalek assistance," one Dalek operative confirms to his supreme.

The mothership is so low on power that only invisibility and stationary hovering are some of the only settings that the ship can use without being detected. To maintain its ship invisibility and stealth, whilst carrying out other actions such as sending distress calls whilst being masked, take extraordinary amounts of energy. The quickest way to generate sufficient energy is through biofuel - and the best biofuel for Dalek ships is organic life forms such as humans. They are designed for it to encourage further extermination from the pepper pots, and to enable usefulness from organisms exterminated.

"What is the status of the Doctor?" the Supreme Dalek demands. Concern as to what the Doctor is up to is beginning to dominate the minds of the ones at the top of this branch of the vast New Dalek Empire.
Another top bronze Dalek tasked with response is quiet for a few moments, before responding to the question. "The Doctor's location is currently unknown."
Flustered once again, the Supreme Dalek yells in panic. "Find the Doctor and ensure that he cannot enable the humans to interfere with Dalek plans for domination of London!"
A few bronze Daleks converge where the original who answered and begin a large scale search for the Doctor, his companions and the Bannerman Road gang.

They must NOT interfere with the plans of the Daleks this time.
***
Elizabeth Jago-Stewart, the head of the Unified Intelligence Taskforce, is informed of the Daleks breaching UNIT defences in south west London, talking in an underground bunker with the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and other senior Cabinet ministers.
Rubbing her eyes in disappointment and now fear as UNIT is now powerless, she looks up at the ceiling of the underground bunker.

"Where is he? Where is the Doctor?" she asks.
Prime Minister Finlay Kamara shrugs his shoulders in pure confusion. "The Doctor? Doctor Who?"
Eliza realises that the Prime Minister doesn't know who the Doctor is - as is protocol now, the Doctor is classified to UNIT documentations only. She chuckles, and looks over to her right hand man who shrugs his shoulders, this time for different reasons.
"The Doctor hasn't been spotted directly BUT," he adds. "He and his companions Miss Walker and Mr Redgrave are currently in league with the Bannerman Road gang, as informed when they alerted UNIT to shut down the perimeter of south west London. I'm sure they are all currently working against the Daleks."
Eliza runs her hand through her dark blue hair in relief that the Doctor and his associates are battling against the foes they are ill equipped to. Their next plan of action is to devise a plan in order to delay their advance further without losing further men.

Eliza has been arguing her case with her UNIT colleagues that a classified third party is currently dealing with the emergency. Prime Minister Kamara is arguing the case that no third party is classified to the head of government. Eliza knows significantly better than he does. How typical of a politician.
