The Man in the Long Brown Coat [Doctor Who Fanfiction] | [COMPLETED]

Chapter 26 | Murderous Clockwork Droid

Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to Doctor Who, everything belong to the BBC with the exception of my own original character and some changes in the script.

A/N: This is where the big change really spot on I guess? Because when I think about the scene where Rose met with Madame de Pompadour isn't an enough satisfactory for me of the portrayal so I change it a bit and of course it become in a sort of when the Doctor met Van Gogh. This is also where I think people tend to forget about the real Madame de Pompadour and how she was not only just the Mistress of the King but she was brilliant, she ran the French politics and even the diplomats of her time was asking for her opinion first about a certain issue. She was so dead brilliant, and I think in this chapter would told her enough for her to regain her sense of determination.

Anyway! To the story!

On the other side of the mirror, Sam walked out with Arthur on his side. Sam bumped into the horse, as the animal whined and nuzzled his shoulder, eliciting a giggle from his throat. He looked around and tried to find where the droids would run off too as he grabbed the strapped of the horse.

"Come on Arthur," he smiled and stroked the horse muzzle. "Time to find some droids."

He marched down the hall in search of the clockwork droids, not watching where he was going and bumped into one of the clockwork androids. Panicking, Sam whirled around to escape but was quickly snatched by a second droid. Hurriedly, he let go of Arthur making the horse run away as he kicked and screamed with all his might, scaring the horse to running away. One robot gripped him in a bruising hold while the other pressed a needle into his skin, injecting him with a foreign liquid.

His screams died, and Sam slumped to the ground.

"I could've danced all night, I could've danced all night." the Doctor sang, crashing into objects. He briefly danced wilding with a banana setting a new rage before disappearing once more. He'd nabbed and eventually wearing a sunglasses and his tie around his head, dragging himself back through the corridor of the spaceship.

He led himself down towards the sound, leaning over the ship while giggling happily. "And still have begged for more," the Doctor continued to sang drunkenly as he staggered about the room. "I could've spread my wings and done thou." He spun around, and spotted a familiar white horse. "Arthur! You lovely horse, where have you been?"

Arthur bumped his nuzzle to him, urgently and that made the Doctor giggled even more. "Oh, you silly horse! What are you doing here again?"

He grabbed the strapped gently and his brain finally come around as alcohol has ran through his Time Lord biology and neutralized it, he now realized the strapped should be held by a familiar small little boy holding the strapped and followed the horse, and as he can see; he wasn't there. Panicked started ran through him.

"Sam!" the Doctor shouted as he sprinted down the corridors, frantically darting his eyes down every intersection he passed.

There was only one reason Arthur would have wondered off alone, the droids must have taken him. But where? He barrelled down the halls, he needs to find him quickly.

Sam's eyes fluttered open as a loud ticking reached him. He squinted a bit as he tried to get his bleary eyes to focus on the shapes that were surrounding him. Ticking reverberated through the room and he felt like he must be surrounded by a hundred of the rids. As the sedative wore off, he realized it was only a handful but that was more than enough for him to realized he was strapped to a table.
