"Come on! Come on! Come on!" Mickey anxiously called as Celeste and Ricky start to climb the chain link fence. Celeste stops climbing and glares at the approaching Cyberman, she screams, making all the cybermen explode in a burst of golden light. Slightly sluggishly, she climbs the fence joining the two doppelgangers. Mickey lets her lean against him as they start walking again.

"Thank you..." Ricky quietly mutters to her, she gives him a small raise of the eyebrow. "I shouldn't of been such an asshole"

"It's about time" Mickey snapped at him, protective of the girl he'd come to see as a little sister. 

The trio find the others and Jake sighs in relief at the sight of the two doppelgangers, Rose hugs Mickey who keeps a firm hold on Celeste. The Doctor comes over and gently takes his girlfriend, a silent question in the air as he looks at Mickey. 

"She destroyed the Cybermen, they would've gotten Ricky and her otherwise." Rose's boyfriend quickly explains as he see's the rising fury in the Time Lord's eyes. 

"Do you need to go back to the TARDIS?" The Doctor whispers quietly to his girlfriend, she shakes her head and they start to make their way to the power station.

"It's freezing." Mrs Moore shivers and Alfie squints into the darkness, a chill travelling up his back.

"Any sign of a light switch?" Samuel asks, the Doctor already suspiciously looking around him. Both of the Time Lords wished that Celeste was with them but she was adamant about going with Mickey, something the boy seemed grateful for. 

"Can't see a thing. But I've got these. A device for every occasion." Mrs Moore proudly whips out several pairs of headbands with torches on them, the Doctor lighting up like a child at Christmas.

"Ooo!" Alfie shakes his head with a small smile at the older Time Lord, he had come to see the Doctor as an older brother figure and he hoped that they could tell Celeste of the bond soon.

"Put it on."

"Haven't got a hotdog in there, have you? I'm starving." Samuel dramatically grasps his stomach and the Doctor sniggered quietly. 

"Of all the things to wish for. That's mechanically recovered meat." Mrs Moore wrinkles her nose and Samuel just shrugs, he'll eat anything.

"I know. It's the Cyberman of food, but it's tasty."

"A proper torch as well." Alfie comments, nodding his head in approval.

"Let's see where we are." The Doctor looks down the tunnel and a small frown sets into his face, his voice becoming slightly emotionless. "Already converted, just put on ice. Come on."
