Chapter 8: An old friend
The car ride was long. Long and terrifying. Rose watched as a soft drizzle rolled down the window as the black car skillfully maneuvers London traffic. The driver wears a bowler hat pulled low over his eyes. Rose can't see his face through the rear view mirror.
She looks over to The Doctor buckled next to her. He's poised like a cat, string intently at the driver. She can practically see the gears in his half human head spinning like mad. He didn't ask why they were in the car. He trusted her.
When they pull up to the tall glass tower, Canary warf. Rose recognises it from her two years served there before, answering phones mostly, hoping to be able to get into the real TORCHWOOD buisness. Alien snatching.
She steps out of the door, and The Doctor clambers out behind her, and slams the door. When she turns around to the car, it's gone.
She swallows and slips her hand into his, interlacing their fingers. In her periphreal vision she see's him grin.
She nudges him playfully in the ribs. "Shut up."
She opens the door and feels a cold gush of air throw back her hair. The front deskhas a metal frame metal detector in front of it. The gaurd helps them empty their pockets into the little black bins on the conveyor belt. Rose pulls out her keys, some pennies, and a bobby-pin. The Doctor pulls out a small gadget connected with wires and different sized buttons.
"Hang on." Rose says looking at it. "Is that my remote control pause button?"
They step through the gate, and he is about to respond when suddenly 4 men in black uniforms rush in around them, quickly making a cemi circle with them against the wall. They wave machine guns in their faces and they fling hteir hands up in terror.
"Let me through."
The men part to let a stern looking black woman in uniform to interveen. Rose recognises her voice as the one from the phone this morning.
She pulls a small metal device from her pocket. The end has to pieces of metal crackling with electricity. Rose recognises it as a taser.
Before she can react, the the woman rushes foreward, and shoves the sparking end into The Doctor's chest. He gasps, stiffens, and falls to the floor, sweating and twitching.
"DOCTOR!"
