The Day Of The Doctor Pt. 6

"The Zygons lost their own world. It burnt in the first days of the Time War. A new home is required" Elizabeth says.

"So, they want this one?" Clara asks.

"Not yet. It's far too primitive. Zygons are used to a certain level of comfort."

"Commander, why are these creatures here?"

"Because I say they should be. It is time you too were translated. Observe this. I believe you will find it fascinating" the Zygon puts his hand on a glass cube with dents in the corners, then vanishes into the 3D landscape painting from the Under Gallery, which is nearby.

"That's him! That's the Zygon in the picture now" Clara says.

"It's not a picture, it's a stasis cube. Time Lord art. Frozen instants in time, bigger on the inside, but could be deployed as..." the War Doctor gets cut off by the Tenth Doctor.

"Suspended animation. Oh, that's very good. The Zygons all pop inside the pictures, wait a few centuries till the planet's a bit more interesting, and then out they come."

"You see, Clara, they're stored in the paintings in the Under Gallery, like cup-a-soups. Except you add time if you can picture that" {Y/N} says.

"Nobody could picture that," the Doctor says.

"Forget I said cup-a-soups" {Y/N} mutters.

"And now the world is worth conquering. So, the Zygons are invading the future from the past" Clara says.

"Exactly" {Y/N} says.

"And do you know why I know that you're a fake? Because you're such a bad copy. It's not just the smell or the unconvincing hair, or the atrocious teeth, or the eyes just a bit too close together, or the breath that could stun a horse. It's because my Elizabeth, the real Elizabeth, would never be stupid enough to reveal her own plan. Honestly, why would you do that?" the Tenth Doctor asks.

"Because it's not my plan. And I am the real Elizabeth."

"Ok. So, backtracking a moment just to lend context to my earlier remarks."

"My twin is dead in the forest. I am accustomed to taking precautions" she produces a dagger from the garter beneath her skirts "these Zygon creatures never even considered that it was me who survived rather than their own commander. The arrogance that typifies their kind."

"Zygons?" Clara asks.

"Men" Elizabeth replies.

"And you actually killed one of them?"

"I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but at the time, so did the Zygon. The future of my kingdom is imperilled. Doctor, can I rely on your service?"

"Well, I'm going to need my TARDIS," the Tenth Doctor says.

"It has been procured already."

"Ah."

"But first, my love, you have a promise to keep."

*Castle courtyard*

"I now pronounce you man and wife."

"Woo-hoo!" Clara shouts.

"You may kiss the bride" Elizabeth kisses the Tenth Doctor.

"Is there a lot of this in the future?" the War Doctor asks.

"It does start to happen, yeah, but mostly to {Y/N}," the Doctor says, {Y/N} jabs her elbow into the Doctor's side "ow."

"Godspeed, my love," Elizabeth says.

"I will be right back," the Tenth Doctor says, he runs into the TARDIS and starts cranking her up.

"Right then, back to the future" {Y/N} says as she opens the TARDIS door.
