**Doctor Wot: The Furry Earth
Part 2
By Callum E Hancock**
The Saviour falls unconscience as the Alligator begins to swallow the Timelord. Jack then runs into the room, he sees the alligator gulp down his meal. Jack feels weak & powerless.
"Where is he!" Jack cries out
"Who?" the creature grins
"My friend!"
"Not a good friend is he if he wanted to kill himself" Jack growls but inside the Alligator, the Saviour is unconscience with the digestive juices melting his jacket. A small device flashes & a small light in CITT also flashes.
"The Saviour is in trouble"CITT thinks to himself."I will have to activate the emergancy transmat". The Saviour now fades out of existance & fades onto the side of the pool lifeless. Jack growls at the sight of the lifeless body, he turns & lunges onto the other reptile, digging his sharp teeth into the armour. The Saviour now begins to glow yellow, with the sound of pure energy emitting from him before his wounds fade into oblivion & his clothing looking brand new but still unconscience, he opens his mouth & a red mist seeps out. Jack now breaks the other reptiles back causing extreme pain. Jack then goes up to the Saviour & holds his body in his arms. The Saviour just feels the warm scales brushing against his skin. Jack then sighs & a single tear drips onto the Saviour's forehead before the Saviour gulps. Jack then looks at the Saviour's face into his closed eyes
"Saviour? Please say something" soon, the Saviour replies softly & quietly
"Jack, stop blubbering & put me down" Jack puts the Saviour down on the cold tiled floor. The Saviour takes a deep breath & opens his eyes before grinning at Jack who then hugs the Timelord. The Saviour looks over Jack's shoulder with his eyes widened & rolling his eyes across the room.
"Jack, are you revealing something about yourself?" Jack still doesn't let go
"I was bloody scared you know"
"Yes, I have that effect on people now can you please let go"
"In a minute" Jack replies. The Saviour then pats Jack on the back before finally being released. Jack then gets this odd feeling inside after seeing the Saviour using his sonic hammer to open the door but just ignors it. The door flies open & the pair walk out of the cafe. The Saviour starts pacing, being watched by three wolves who laugh among them-selves, Jack can't help but notice & gives off a slight growl.
"Stop growling please Jack, I'm planning" Jack turns round
"Oh, sorry. What are you planning?" the Saviour turns round & looks into the dragons eyes
"I'm not going to lie to you Jack. The creatures that were chasing you last night were known as Cybermen. They were a race of humans from the planet Mondas but they started replacing their parts with metal & machinery with their emotions removed. I wouldn't say it was a successful conversion. They are always in the brink of extinction & so they every time they conquer a planet, they convert the natives into Cybermen. A very resourceful army."
Jack was very enthusiastic
"Do you know how to stop them Saviour?"
"Well, the only weakness I can see is gold. It clogs up their breathing aperatus & in effect sufficates them."
"Gold! It's one of the rarer substances on Earth. We won't get it cheap"
"Their's one way"
"What?"
"Alchemy" The Wolves had listened in to the conversation.
"Aww, how cute"Said the largest of the three wolves. Jack turned around & stood between them & the Saviour who was now protected. The Saviour sighed & began to fiddle with a small control device.
"Talking about fantasy I see"
"Excuse me" The Saviour called & stood eye to eye with the 6 foot wolf, "Would you mind buggering off somewhere else please, we are having a private chat". The wolf laughed & pointed.
"This human's got a lot of guts hasn't he, most would run away at the sight of one of us" The Saviour raised an eye brow
"Human? Me? You've got it wrong" Jack interupted
"Just keep quiet please..." the Saviour raised his finger to silence Jack & pulled out the control he was fiddling with.
"I hate it when I have to do this" The Saviour points the device at the wolves & presses the button, the wolves froze & the Saviour grinned
"You have now been placed in a time loop, you can't move or speak, you can only look, listen & breathe. Now listen here, I'm a Timelord, native of the planet Gallifrey in the constalation of Kasterborous. I'm 360 years old & I'm going to save the Earth whether you like it or not. The time loop will be lifted in four minutes" The Saviour then places an Eighties walkman connected to some speakers beside the Wolves & plays Pop Muzik by M. He & Jack then walk down to the road while the old music blared from the music player of the same era. Jack then kneeled down as the Saviour walked who soon stopped & turned round to see Jack on his knees pointing at his back.
"Where do we want to go?'' Asked the grinning Dragon
"Somewhere quiet where I can make the gold"
"How about my apartment, I have an old chemistry set" The Saviour ponders
"Alright, lead on" Jack then laughed
"I'll fly us there" The Saviour's eyes widened with fear
"No thank you, I prefer walking any day"
"Why?" asked the dragon whose face turned from a grin to a frown
"You're quite small, it'll be like riding a Shetland pony in the sky, bloody dangerous"
"Come on" The Saviour sighed before turning round
"I suppose it would be quicker" the pair grinned & the Saviour sat on Jack's back holding on to his neck, he tightened his grip before Jack shot in the air after one beat of his large, powerful wings. The Saviour then sent a telepathic message to CITT telling it to follow the Saviour's telepathic signal. CITT instantly started up, & drove through the forest. The Saviour soon had a thought to himself, I must learn not to be scared of an uncomfortable flight. The Saviour felt Jack's shirt, it was soft & nice to touch, but the Saviour only realised it was made of cotton. The wind blew through his eighties styled hair & could only think of the song Don't go by Yazoo as they flew through the air.
Jack soon landed on the roof of his appartment, the Saviour got off & Jack stood up watching the Saviour stumbling, just as his legs gave way, Jack caught him in his scaled arms, helping him to stand up.
"t...t...ta J...J...Jack, just feeling a...a...a bit light head...headed that's all" he stuttered. Jack laughed but he couldn't overcome the feeling inside. The Saviour was now standing steady & pulling his jacket down. He then walked to the edge of the roof & saw CITT parked in the car park below. The Saviour then turned round & found Jack looking at him.
"You alright Jack?" Jack then snapped back into attention
"Sorry Saviour, just feeling odd that's all"
"hmm, must of had too much curry eh" the pair laughed & Jack led them to the hatch on the roof. Jack jumped down first & held his arms ready to catch the Saviour
"Just drop down, I'll catch you"
"It's alright Jack, I can manage" the Saviour dropped through straight into the reptile's arms who then put him on the floor. Jack then petted the Saviour's head with his clawed hand. When Jack turned away to go down the stairs, the Saviour pushed his hair back to his style, running his fingers through it to make sure it didn't have any knots before going down the stairs to the main appartment. The place looked like it had been decorated by an expert, warm colours for the living room, dark green for the kitchen & white for the bathroom.
"Would you like a cuppa Saviour?" Asked the dragon
"Coffee please, three heaped sugars, one heaped coffee & some milk will be lovely"
"Comin' right up" the reptile replied. The Saviour finds a picture of Jack hugging a vixen in a cream turtle-neck jumper & denim flares with Jack wearing a red shirt & blue jeans.
"Who's this foxy lady then?" Jack turned round in shock
"What?", the Saviour then holds the photo up. Jack then walks over to the Saviour & looks at the photo
"Oh, that's my girlfriend Sandra"
"She seems nice"
"Heart of gold" Says Jack before giving off a small grin & goes off to finish the drinks. The Saviour puts te photo down & continues to look around. He then finds a picture of a human wearing the same jacket as the Saviour with some text on the bottom, "Rest In Peace Clive, beloved friend of Jack Thornton & Sandra Foxwell. The Saviour's eyes widened before whispering to himself
"poor sod, he's been looking after me beacuse I remind him of his best friend! The grief must be unbearable" Jack comes through with the coffee & puts it down on the table
"There you go Cli...Saviour", the Saviour sat down & took the drink. His mug had a picture of Jack, Sandra & Clive printed on it. Jack couldn't help but glance at the Saviour as he sipped the coffee but he also occasionally turned his head & looked an oak door for a few seconds before looking at the Saviour who noticed Jack's behavior.
"Are you ok Jack?" asked the Timelord. Jack looked at the Saviour with a tear in his eye. The Saviour put his coffee down & went over to Jack's sofa to comfort him.
"Come on Jack, you can tell me what's wrong" Jack raised his head & turned to the Saviour who squeezed his hand reassuringly with a slight smile.
"He was so much like you" Jack said softly
"Who?" Jack then looked at the mug before looking at a large photograph of him & Clive on the wall. He then took a deep breath before saying
"My old flat mate Clive. We were like brothers, he was brave, daring & smart but one day, we met some anthro canines in the alley ways. There were too many of them, we fought as hard as we could. I got rid of a few of them but two got Clive. One held him back & the other had bitten into his neck, crushing his wind pipe & causing severe bleeding. I scared the pair off before I stayed with him. I could feel his life force slipping away. He gave a small grin before dying in my arms. I called for help & stroked his cheek before the ambulance came. But it was too late, I sat with him on the ambulance holding his cold lifeless hand. I knew he was dead but I wouldn't believe it. I told Sandra who was in tears after hearing the news. We both loved him very much" Jack soon started to sob & the Saviour held onto him rubbing his scaled back.
"That's it, just let it out. I know what it's like to lose someone dear but I just let it go. Think of the positives that lay ahead of your life. You & Sandra could get married & have little foxy dragons eh", Jack chuckled with tears still streaming down his face. The Saviour pulled out a hanky & offered it to Jack who took it & dried his eyes & cheeks but still sniffing gallons of air through his nose & breathing out of his mouth. Little did the pair know, CITT was listening to every word & it caused it to drip oil from it's headlights.
The pair sat in appartment watching the television which arms over each other's shoulders & Jack's tail around the Saviour's waist whilst eating Jelly babies & meaty snacks. They were watching a recording of the old seventies cop show, the professionals which was being streamed from CITT's memory banks. Bodie was in his Capri watching some guys get into a Triumph 2000 before following them, then overtaking them & before you knew it, Bodie was leading these people through streets & country lanes in a classic car chase. Near the end of the part, Bodie powerslides beside a wooden fence & the Triumph crashes through into the feild. Bodie then loads his gun & moves in, finds an identity card & realises they are from the CIA. Soon Jack remembers what the Saviour needed to do,
"Saviour, aren't you going to make gold now?"
"Ah, thanks for reminding me" the Saviour gets up & Jacks tail trails off his waist
"Everything should be set up Saviour". The Saviour sits at the dinner table with the Chemistry set in front of him.
"It's basic but basic will do" he says
"Do you want anything to turn into gold?"
"Yes Jack, gravel or sand will do perfectly"
"I have some old sand bags in my closet" Jack gets up to a white door marked 'Emergency supplies', opens the door & picks up two sandbags before giving them to the Saviour.
"Ah, perfect. Ta very much. I'll have a trial" the Saviour rips one of the bags & pours it into a beaker before dripping various chemicals in. Soon, the sand changes colour & begins to sparkle brightly. The Saviour then pulls out two pairs of sunglasses & puts a pair on before inviting Jack to have a look,
"Jack, I think I've cracked it" Jack then walks over & looks into the beaker almost blinded by the reflection. The Saviour offers the other sunglasses to Jack who proceeds to wear them(just). The dragon then gives a toothy smile before picking the beaker up & having a closer inspection.
"It's amazing Saviour! How did you do it?"
"It's easy, when you have 360 years of experience" Soon, CITT sends a telepathic message. Warning the pair that there were ten Cybermen entering the flats. The Saviour takes the sunglasses off & takes the bags of sand to the bathroom before pooring the sand into the bath. Then running through to get the chemicals he used. Jack was worried
"What's going on!?"He cried
"Ten Cybermen heading up, they can't get to the sand when it's changing. We'll have to hold them off"
"But how?"
"If I reverse the polarity in my sonic hammer, I might damage the circuitry in the chest unit & therefore killing the Cybermen"
"What if it doesn't work?"
"Then we'll have to think of something quickly then". The Saviour fiddles with his sonic hammer & tests it on a music player which then blows up.
"Perfect, let's go" the Saviour & Jack run out on to the landing ready & waiting. On Cyberman comes through the door. The Saviour presses the button on the sonic hammer but nothing happens.
"Oh no, the chest units must operate on a different frequency"cries the worried Timelord just before the Cyberman holds it's gun ready to shoot.
oo-ee-oo
