"Right. I'm going to put Alice in charge. She knows the most about Daleks, and shes the one that has the faintest idea how to stop them, and the Doctor has put her in charge!" Orders Kate, looking at me expectantly.
I walk over to the board and write 'operation SDI.'
We're In a meeting to discuss our action plan. I'm in charge. Kate and Cai sit at the front, helping me whilst all the other members of UNIT sit In a semi circle behind them.
"Right. The Daleks are not stopped easily. Basically, they can self-destruct, the Doctor has killed them before but it's a time Lordy thing." I laugh.
"Excuse me, how will they invade, Miss Cooke?" Asks a professor.
"I'm not sure. But most likely, a spaceship. A dalek spaceship. More than one spaceship in fact! Shuttlecrafts, saucers, motherships, the Dalek Paradigm etc... but no Matter what type of ship. They will be armed." I warn.
"What do they want?" Shouts someone else.
"Our lives. The Doctor lost a bet and his forfeit was that the Daleks invade wasn't. That's why we must be vigilant and we must fight back. We don't want a war; we must scare them off. I say the plan is..."
"Alice, what do we do first then?" Asks Kate.
"I was getting on to that!" I snap, "I have my sonic screwdriver. We need guns and lasers ready, we need everyone to stay inside their homes. Then, as soon as we see the first saucer, we shoot. Go from there. Nothing is going to stop us, ok?"
Everyone nods after me and for the first time; I feel what it's like to be the Doctor, and I miss him. I'm in charge. I have to stay focused.
"Cai and Kate; you are in charge of the plan and making sure it goes ahead, everyone else you will need to man a weapon. Start now. The invasion is tomorrow but we don't know what time, so we need to be ready!" I order, checking the time.
"Right, finish the meeting. You can all go, get some sleep because tomorrow, we're saving earth!" Kate says, signalling for UNIT to leave the room.
"Are you ready to save the world, Cai?" I laugh.
"It's all on you!" He whispers.
