A vortex appears in an alleyway, blowing the rubbish around, followed by the Doctor, {Y/N}, Jack and Martha.

"Oh, my head" Martha says, standing.

"Time travel without a capsule. That's a killer" {Y/N} mumbles shaking her head.

"Still, at least we made it. Earth, twenty first century by the looks of it. Talk about lucky" Jack says looking around.

"That wasn't luck, that was me" the Doctor says.

*A few moments earlier*

{Y/N}, the Doctor, Jack and Martha are trying to keep out the Futurekind whilst the Doctor is using his sonic screwdriver on Jack's vortex manipulator bracelet.

"Hold still! Don't move! Hold it still!" the Doctor says.

"I'm telling you, it's broken. It hasn't worked for years" Jack says.

"That's because you didn't have me. everyone, grab hold, now!" with everyone holding on to the manipulator, they vanish.

*Now*

"The moral is, if you're going to get stuck at the end of the universe, get stuck with an ex-Time Agent and his vortex manipulator" Jack says.

"But this Master bloke, he's got the TARDIS. He could be anywhere in time and space."

"No, he's here. Trust me" {Y/N} says.

"Who is he, anyway? And that voice at the end, that wasn't the Professor" Martha says.

"If the Master's a Time Lord, then he must have regenerated" Jack says.

"What does that mean?" Martha asks.

"It means he's changed his face, voice, body, everything. New man" Jack explains as they all walk past a beggar is tapping a rhythm on his tin mug.

"Then how are we going to find him?" Martha asks.

"The Doctor and I'll know him, the moment we see him. Time Lords always do" {Y/N} says.

"But hold on. If he could be anyone, we missed the election. But it can't be..." Martha starts a series of public television screens on lamp posts are broadcasting the news as they walk past stopping.

"Mister Saxon has returned from the Palace and is greeting the crowd inside Saxon Headquarters" the new Prime Minister is walking down steps with his wife.

"I said I knew that voice. When he spoke inside the TARDIS. I've heard that voice hundreds of times. I've seen him. We all have. That was the voice of Harold Saxon" Martha says.

"That's him" the Doctor says.

"He's Prime Minister" {Y/N} says shock written on her face and mouth agape.

"Mister Saxon, this way, sir. Come on, kiss for the lady, sir."

"The Master is Prime Minister of Great Britain. The Master and his wife?" {Y/N} continues.

"This country has been sick. This country needs healing. This country needs medicine. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that what this country really needs right now, is a Doctor."

*Time skip*

"Home" Martha says as they walk into her apartment.

"What have you got? Computer, laptop, anything. Jack, who are you phoning? You can't tell anyone we're here" the Doctor says.

"Just some friends of mine, but there's no reply" Martha fetches her laptop.

"Here you go. Any good?" the Doctor nods and him and {Y/N} sit at the small table.
