*Console room 2*
"Console room, echo imprint of the original."
"You're coming with me. I need you to get me out of here" Gregor says, the Doctor sonics Gregor's hand computer.
"Scanning for female human. Scanning for female human. Unidentified human."
"It doesn't know Lancashire," the Doctor says.
"What?"
"It doesn't know sass. Yes! It's found, Clara. It's found her. She is right there" Clara screams, and the two females partially appear "ha, the Seer is there as well" the Doctor grabs me and drags us both through, I stumble into the Doctor, Clara no longer gripping onto me.
"It's all right. Clara" I say, still in the Doctor's arms.
"I'm so, so sorry. Sorry. Please, please forgive me" the Doctor says, Clara looks at us and hits the Doctor "ow! Ok, so we're not doing hugging. I get that now" the Doctor mutters, I pull away giving the Doctor a smile.
"What do you keep in here? Why have you got zombie creatures? Good guys do not have zombie creatures. Rule one basic storytelling" Clara says.
"Not in front of the guests," the Doctor says.
"Who are they?" I ask.
"Friends. Well, people who aren't trying to kill us, so I don't need punching again" the Doctor says.
"I wasn't going to punch you," she says.
"All right, all right. Look, a deal's a deal. You got them back. Now cancel the self-destruct" Gregor says.
"Ah. Ah. You know, I've got to tell you, I won't be needing you in my quiz team."
"What?"
"There is no self-destruct. Hey? Hey? Hey? Had you going though, boys, didn't I? I just wiggled a few buttons. Yeah, the old wiggly button trick. And the face. You've got to do the face. Save them or we all die. I thought I rushed it a bit, but..."
"So, you're telling us we're safe?" Tricky says.
"Ish. Apart from the monsters and the TARDIS reinventing the architecture every five minutes. Guys, don't worry. The countdown's a fake. Look, just give me a second. I'll turn it off. I only made it look as though the engine was actually exploding" Eye of Harmony. Engine status: Overload "ah. That's not good. Ok, don't panic. Or maybe panic."
"Something you want to share with the rest of us?" Clara asks.
"It appears the engine is damaged. We're in trouble, Clara. Proper trouble. It needs fixing or we're toast" I say.
"So now would be a good time to use that big friendly button, right?"
"Yes. Sorry, we should have had one built in" the Doctor says.
"Where are we going?" Tricky asks.
"Detour" the Doctor replies, we run down the stairs and I sonic open a hexagonal panel.
"The centre of the TARDIS" I say.
*Corridor*
The Doctor is scanning as he leads the troop. Something flashes across the corridor.
"Shush. Something's in here" Clara says.
"Those things, they've followed us," Tricky says.
"Seer, Doctor, what are they? What aren't you telling me?" Clara asks.
"Trust me. Some things you don't want to know" I reply, something crosses behind us.
"They're on the move again," Gregor says.
