The Golden Angel (Doctor who Fanfiction)

Partners In Crime

Alyssa landed in the Tardis mid-flight, she looked around and saw the Tenth Doctor, "Hey Doc," She called out, the Doctor looked up from where he was at and smiled as he made his way over to her, he instantly took her into a hug before saying "Where did you just come from?"

"Margaret, the second time," Alyssa said, and the Doctor seemed to grow a bit sadder at the revelation before he broke away from her and walked back over to the console. "What happened last for you."

"The Master," The Doctor said as he messed with some of the controls, as the Tardis had landed. Alyssa let out a sigh "oh now that's interesting." he said, as he looked at some scanning results.

"What is it?" Alyssa said as she walked over to take a look at the results

"Nothing big, just some weird readings from London."

"Trouble?" Alyssa said as she glanced between the screen and the Doctor,

"Could be. But it isn't that big,"

"But it could still become something big right?" Alyssa said as the Doctor realized what she was trying to do, "Possibly." He said as they smiled at each other,

"Should we go check it out?" Alyssa said

"Yes, yes we should," The Doctor said before the two smiled at each other and the Doctor started piloting the Tardis to London to check out the strange readings.

They made their way back to London and found out that the readings came from a Company called Adipose Industries. They made their way to the main building but they instantly went around to the back. The Doctor sonicked open a fire exit door, and they entered. They made their way through the building and as they passed a guard the Doctor flashed him his psychic paper. "John and Alyssa Smith Health and Safety. They made their way to where a presentation about the product for Social Media and went to the projection room to watch the presentation. "Adipose Industries, the twenty-first century way to lose weight. No exercise, no diet, no pain. Just lifelong freedom from fat. The Holy Grail of the modern age." A blond woman with glasses said before she brought out a tiny pill. "And here it is. You just take one capsule. One capsule, once a day for three weeks, and the fat, as they say."

"The fat just walks away." A man in a film said,

"Excuse me, Miss Foster. If I could? I'm Penny Carter, science correspondent for The Observer. There are a thousand diet pills on the market, a thousand con men stealing people's money. How do we know the fat isn't going straight into your bank account?" Penny said as the film was paused,

"Oh, Penny, if cynicism burnt up calories, we'd all be as thin as rakes. But if you want the science, I can oblige." Miss Foster said, and the video was played one again,

"Adipose Industries. The Adipose capsule is composed of a synthesized mobilizing lipase, bound to a large protein molecule. The mobilizing lipase breaks up the triglycerides stored in the adipose cells, which then enter." The Narrator of the film said and continued to explain the science but they couldn't hear the rest as the Doctor realized someone was staring at them weirdly,

"Health and Safety. Film department." The Doctor said before they turned their attention back to the presentation "One hundred percent legal, one hundred percent effective." Miss Foster said after the film finished

"But, can I just ask, how many people have taken the pills to date?"

"We've already got one million customers within the Greater London area alone, but from next week, we start rolling out nationwide. The future starts here. And Britain will be thin." Miss Foster said concluding the presentation.
