I stood and watched Reinette and the Doctor together as Jonah rushed off.
"What are you doing the Doctor told us to watch it." Jonah told me."Y-yeah just give me a minute." I say to him as I continued to watch the two together, it didn't take long before they were dancing together and as they spun around I had never seen a smile so bright come from his face. I felt a stab of jealousy when she kissed him next so I stormed away pulling Jonah with me.
"Don't tell him I saw that." I tell Jonah and he agreed."So, that Doctor, eh?" He asked
"What are you talking about?" I asked
"Well. Madame de Pompadour. River Song. Cleopatra." He lists the girls the last two girls who I mentioned to him.
"Cleopatra. He mentioned her once." I shouted at him
"Yeah, but he called her Cleo." Jonah smirked
"Jonah!" An android grabs Jonah by the throat. Another grabs me from behind. They inject us with something.
(*Time Skip*)
Jonah and I were strapped to slanted tables, opposite the Tardis. Many androids are present.
"What's going on? Doctor?" I shouted out for him
"Marcie? They're going to chop us up, just like the crew. They're going to chop us up and stick us all over their stupid spaceship. And where's the Doctor? Where's the precious Doctor now? He's been gone for flipping hours, that's where he is!" Jonah snaps
'You are compatible.' The android says
"Well, you might want to think about that. You really, really, might, because me and Jonah, we didn't come here alone. Oh no. And trust me, you wouldn't want to mess with our designated driver." I ramble to buy my brother and I some time. The android extends his blade, with a little cogged wheel spinning at the end.
"Ever heard of the Daleks? Remember them? They had a name for our friend. They had myths about him, and a name. They called him the-" whilst explaining I heard a crash and I bang. Followed by a drunken voice off, singing.'I could've danced all night, I could've danced all night.' It shouts
"They called him the. They called him the, the-" I stutter as the Doctor sways in, carrying a goblet and wearing his tie around his head.
"And still have begged for more. I could've spread my wings and done a thou. Have you met the French? My god, they know how to party." He smiles in a drunken mess.
"Oh, look at what the cat dragged in. The Oncoming Storm." I say sarcastically
"Oh, someone isn't happy."
"What've you been doing? Where've you been?" Jonah shouts
"Well, among other things, I think just invented the banana daiquiri a few centuries early. Do you know, they've never even seen a banana before. Always take a banana to a party, Jonah. Bananas are good. Oh ho, ho, ho, ho, brilliant. It's you. You're my favourite, you are. You are the best! Do you know why? Because you're so thick. You're Mister Thick Thick Thickity Thick Face from Thicktown, Thickania. And so's your dad. Do you know what they were scanning Reinette's brain for? Her milometer. They want to know how old she is. Know why? Because this ship is thirty seven years old, and they think that when Reinette is thirty seven, when she's complete, then her brain will be compatible. So, that's what you're missing, isn't it, hmm? Command circuit. Your computer. Your ship needs a brain. And for some reason, God knows what, only the brain of Madame de Pompadour will do." The Doctor explained
'The brain is compatible.' The android says still staring over me
"Compatible? If you believe that, you probably believe this is a glass of wine." The Doctor removes the android's mask and pours the contents of the goblet into its head. The clockwork seizes up.
"Multigrain anti-oil. If it moves, it doesn't." The Doctor finds the android off switch on the console.
"Right, you two, that's enough lying about. Time we got the rest of the ship turned off." He frees Jonah and I.
