The secret life

The secret life. chapter 22. The silence situation.

        The following weeks after it was just me and the master texting back and forth. Not really planning but more of just getting to know each other.

Of all the enemys to work with in an alliance the beginning of the year I could of never expected the master. Or his reactions and responses to the situation, to what I told him about. It was strange at first working with the master. I mean all those years him stalking me and trying to kill me it's normal to be uncomfortable at first.

        But as the days passed and the situation carried on we found that we were becoming quite good friends. I saw a side of him that I dont think anyone has ever seen before, and that no one would expect from him. We were the only ones left. Fighting a war. We both were timelords, we both lost our home. We were scared, worried, frustrated, angry.  Our enemies were hunting us down. Hurting what we love. Cornering us. We had a common enemy. I saw a side that he's never shown. Compassion. And it's one of the reasons why I believe the Master is just misunderstood.  Like I am so many times.  We found together that we have so much in common.  Dispite our differences.  I saw a change in him, and I hope that change stays.

        

       When you are fighting enemys all the time. Being hunted down and desperately trying to fight back. I guess you can't text as much. Both the master and my dad, tend to have trouble texting back. Long ago that would of tore me appart. But now days. We are fighting a war, so I need to be strong. It had been a couple of days since the master had texted back. I had no idea what was going on where the Doctor and Alayla were being held. I assumed more experiments on them and more pain. Every time I thought about it i got frustrated and angry. I had no way to help them while our enemies kept hurting them. I felt helpless ,useless.

      To try to take my mind off of it i watched some movies to pass the time. As I was watching it i heard my notifications on my tablet ring. The master had texted me again. We started up a conversation while I was multitasking watching one of my favorite shows. I told him nothing strange had happened in a while. He said "That's good/bad." I knew it was good cause our enemies weren't attacking at the time. But was confused on how It was bad. He cleared it up and it made Sense.   "We don't know what they are doing right now." I thought about it more. It's true we didn't know. And that meaning not knowing if they are coming for us at the moment or when they do plan on coming. It was the calm before the storm. Which we still had no idea when the fixed point would be.

     A bit back our enemies tried making me oblivious to what was going on. Which is clever. Trying to not make me alert so I wouldn't see them coming. Lately I felt that way again. Which was bad. I couldn't allow my enemys to make me oblivious.  I had to stay alert. Last time I had alayla snap me put of it. But this time she wasn't there. The master would have to, though he had no idea how. I decided to fight it. To keep alert. Starting  do that I reviewed the situation with the master, Then tried to telpathic the Doctor. 

     "Doctor?  You there?" The reply I got back wasn't the Doctor.  Was surprising but not at all unexpected. Rani had blocked the telpathic with the Doctor and me. It was time to have a chat with the enemy full of insanity again. most of the time usually threatens me a lot when she does that but this time she didn't. I knew something was up. I texted the master that she had tapped it. In the conversation with Rani and the headache I was starting to get. I realized she was trying to make me oblivious.  I rubbed my head starting to feel the oncoming headache.  I was worried she was doing something to me. Suddenly I got a text.

      "This is what I want you to do. I want to look at this screen. Doctor's orders! Don't you dare look away from this screen! I'm in the master's mind for a little while. You have to fight it! Fight and don't you dare look away from this screen! Understand me!?" From the headache I didn't know if I should obey thinking they could be tricking me to do it. But for that moment I hoped it wasn't and obeyed,  slightly confused.  I sent a text still confused my headache growing steadily worse. "What is she trying to do?" She answered back. I know figuring out that it was alayla texting me "She's trying to experiment. You're holding her off right now. Fight. Fight for the doctor. For me." I would always fight. For everyone,  and everything I loved. I wasn't going to let my enemys win.

      With being timelords our biology doesn't match the planet I'm on. So a lot of time cold weather causes me to have headaches.  As my body tries to match the temperatures of my home planet. Alayla assumed that's one reason why I had a headache.  She told me to cover up with a blanket.  I argued but obeyed, not taking my eyes off the screen.  Luckily I had a blanket right behind me that I covered myself with. "You have to. This will have to. I know I said to not look away. Do what you can right now. Go to the nearest blanket. Peripheral vision will not let you forget. Only full focus will." Trying to piece together the situation I asked her more of what Rani was trying to do. "You said she was trying to experiment.  Like how? Messing with my mind or something?"

        "Well. No. She was going to go for something more intense to try on us. But when you fought against it she lost focus and went to fight back and send silences your way." She informed me. I replied back. "So she is sending silences?" She answered.  "Yes. And we are still in danger. I just hope that you keep fighting are will be able to telepathically talk to the doctor." I continued,  still not taking my eyes off the screen attempting to type while being covered with a blanket.  "What is she trying to do?" I think, I mean if she's sending silences.  She must be attacking somehow. "She was going to cut us up. See what is inside...... while we are awake, gagged, and in front of each other......" I wasn't prepared for that answer and that sounded horrible.  "Yikes." Alayla continued "Yes. She said it will be the first time she will do this. Finally see what is inside for herself." "She would have to catch us first right?" I stated. She corrected me. "No. Just me and the doctor right now. Then you later on."  I knew that already.  But hearing she was going to do that to me too. It terrified me. I had no escape. 

        "She's sending more silences..." it wasn't to her.  She was already captured. Rani was sending them to me. I thought about the entrance to my room imagining silence coming through there and then surrounding me. "Hmm. Ok so I'm bundled up in a blanket fighting her back telpathicly and she's sending silences. I don't have my sonic. You say to not look away from the screen to keep focused." I realized why she wanted me to keep staring at the screen.  When they surrounded me i wouldn't forget about them because I wasn't facing them directly.  "Yes. You have to. she's sending silences to make you forget about this and let her go on with the experiment." I had an intense headache at this point. But I kept fighting back. Alayla continued "I'm heating up the chains so I can break the doctor free. And me. We're going to go back in the cell and try to escape...." i smiled. This was an escape effort. I wished her luck, doing all I can to fight back.
