Cassandra Book 2 (A Doctor Who Fanfic)

Chapter 3 The Christmas Invasion Part 3

"Re!" Rose yelled rushing out of the Tardis only to get the same treatment as I did. "Get off! Get off me!" She began and I tried to struggle against them. Mickey then suddenly runs out of the Tardis staring at our surrounding in amazement.

"Mickey! The door! Close the Door!" I shouted over to him not wanting them to find the Doctor and he quickly slams the door shut before he was caught by a Sycorax as well. We were soon dragged into a hall where many of the Sycorax's were and the one I guessed was the leader yelled out in glee.

"Re. Rose." We heard our names being called and we turned to see Harriet stumble forward as we were let go and I quickly ran over to her and she grabbed onto Roses arms, terrified about what was going on.

"Rose! I've got you. My Lord. My precious thing. Re, The Doctor... is he with you?" She asked me and I quickly shook my head.

"No. We're on our own." I half lied, one because I didn't want them to know the Doctor was in the Tardis, but also because he was out of commission at the time. The leader then points towards me and addresses me angrily.

"This girl. She has the clever blue box. Therefore, she speaks for your planet." A man with what seemed like a translator said.

"But she can't." Harriet quickly respond, but I held my hand up in the air to tell her to be quiet.

"Yeah, I can." Though I felt fear I tried to hold it back the best I could. I began to stand up tall, trying to look strong in front of the alien before me.

"Don't you dare." Mickey warned me.

"The Doctors not here, so I shall stand for him." I turned to him determined to defend this planet.

"They'll kill you." Harriet grabbed me and I turned to her.

"So... I have been in that situation many times before this one, each trip with the Doctor could be your last and it never stopped him and it will never stop me, when it comes to defending the people of earth, or anyone for that matter." I shook her off before taking a few steps forward, slightly nervous, but I won't show it. I thought about what I was going to say and thought back to my first adventure with the Doctor he had said something to the living plastic and I wonder if It will work here. I Just hope I could remember it. I breathed before speaking hopefully in fake confidence. "I address the Sycorax according to... article fifteen of the Shadow Proclamation." I tried to remember how it went. "I command you to leave this world with all the authority of the Slitheen Parliament of Raxacoricofallapatorius, and um... the Gelth Confederacy..." I made up the last bit hoping it would work. I watched as the leader walked towards me and I felt myself panic more. "sanctioned... by the Mighty Jagrafess... and... Oh, the Daleks!, you know the Daleks don't ya. Now, leave this planet in peace!" There was silence as I spoke before everyone burst out laughing telling me straight away it didn't work, but it was worth a shot. The Sycorax leader spoke again.

"You are very, very funny." The male translated and the Leader raise his voice angrily and I stepped back a bit. "And now you're going to die." As soon as he said.

"Leave her alone!" Harriet lurched forward as I instantly pulled out the screwdriver in defence, but I wasn't sure what it could do, but then again it did destroy the Christmas tree..

"No!" Rose yelled doing the same before Mickey added.

"Don't touch her!" before they all were restrained.

"What is that thing you hold?" The Sycorax stared at confused, and I glanced down at it.

"It's a screwdriver, but it's sonic and it recently blow up a robotic killing Christmas tree." I stated before he laughed again and I felt he didn't believe me.

"Did you think you were clever with words?" The Sycorax paced around before me as he was being translated. "We are the Sycorax. We astride the darkness." The Leader hushed at me and I moved the screwdriver down a bit listening to the man translating his words. "Next to us you are but a wailing child. If you are the best your planet can offer as a champion... Then your world will be gutted..." The man began, but the Sycorax finished along side him. My eyes widened as I heard the Sycorax speak English and I felt my hearts begin to beat rapidly in hope. I couldn't just understand some words now I understood him fully and there could only be one explanation as to why and I hope I was right "... and your people enslaved." He continued and I began to smile.
