Scene 4 - Activation

Start from the beginning
                                    

Bal:

Can't we get this door to open!

Ten:

We cannot. It is has been overridden.

Bal:

That treacherous, back-stabbing Moid! We don't stand a chance against that Dalek! Moid! Let us in! Let us in!

The Dalek comes in closer! The Doctor uses the Sonic Screwdriver to open the entrance, just before the Ogron comes to menace Jo. She is saved when the Doctor pulls her in. Moid watches the chaos on the screen, and all entrances again. The Dalek spots Bal and Ten, just as they escape in time through the entrance before the Dalek fires and misses them by a whisker. This is because the entrance suddenly closes because of Moid. The Doctor and Jo are safe.

Jo:

Well what's been happening?

Doctor:

I think we'd better save explanations for when we get back to the TARDIS.

Jo:

But they're all going to kill each other in there.

Doctor:

If we try to help them, we will only end up at the mercy of that Dalek. Come on, back to the TARDIS.

The Doctor and Jo leave. The Mutt is restrained by the Ice Warrior, as it squeezes it as it falls to the ground, squirming. The Draconian fires at the Ice Warrior. It is only pushed back a little bit.

Ice Warrior:

SSSSSSSS! SSSSSSSSSSS!

Ogron:

RRRAAARRRGGHHH!!!

It attacks the Draconian and begins beating it. The Dalek hears the creatures around the corner and begins to return to the other side to exterminate them. Bal and Ten return to the control room through the entrance.

Bal:

What in thunder are you doing? You could have killed us!

Moid:

These people are rogues. They must die. I was letting the creatures kill them. I spared you and let them escape. And now, I will allow access to all doors so they can be fully dealt with.

He presses another switch on the panel. The door next to the Ogron has opened. The Ice Warrior kills it with its sonic gun. The Ogron's stupid brain bursts with noise as the camera flashes funnily. The Ice Warrior then stomps down towards the Doctor and Jo to kill them, with the Dalek just behind.

Ice Warrior:

SSSSSS! SSSSSSSSSS! SSSSSSS!

The Doctor and Jo arrive at the storage unit as to where the TARDIS is. They approach the door and open up.

Jo:

Where to now?

Doctor:

Back to the TARDIS, for now.

The TARDIS is in sight. They hear the Ice Warrior hissing and stomping down the corridor.

Ice Warrior:

SSSSSSS! SSSSSS! SSSSSSS!

Doctor:

Quickly, inside!

The Ice Warrior reveals itself. The Doctor unlocks the TARDIS door with the key, and Jo sees the Ice Warrior raise its arm and primes its sonic gun at them. From behind...

Dalek:

EXTERMINATE!

The Dalek exterminates the hissing Ice Warrior. Its head curls up inside the armour as the creature begins dying. The Dalek fires again but hits part of the glass of the spaceship. There is a terrific explosion of glass shattering. The air begins to be sucked out! The Doctor and Jo cling onto the bar along the wall. The Ice Warrior is then sucked out into space. Wind blows onto the face of the Doctor and Jo, trying to reach for the TARDIS. The Dalek begins to be sucked out.

EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY! DECOMPRESSION! DECOMPRESSION! ASSIST! ASSIST! ASSSSSIII-!

The Dalek had gone. The Doctor and Jo climb along the bar to reach the TARDIS. First, the Doctor is able to get in and tries to help Jo in.

Doctor:

Hang on, Jo!

Jo:

DOCTOR, I CAN'T! I CAN'T!

Doctor:

Yes you can! The TARDIS operates in a different dimension! You will be safe when you get inside!

The Doctor manages to pull Jo inside the ship. Now, they were alright.

You alright?

Jo:

Fine. Just a bit short of breath.

The Doctor heads to the TARDIS console. He shuts the doors and begins to operate the dematerialization lever. The central column begins to rise up and down, and then we cut to see the TARDIS dematerialize in the storage unit. This is viewed on the cameras of the Moroks.

Ten:

It appears they have been able to escape.

Moid:

It is most fortunate that they were able to leave without getting harmed. And now our defences are ruined.

Bal:

Is that all you can say? We were all nearly killed.

Moid:

Must I remind you Bal that I am your superior, and you will address me in the correct manner.

Bal:

Of course, sir.

Moid:

That's better. Good, good. I shall refer this to our Chief Governor. He will decide the necessary steps to alter our plans, as a result of your incompetent actions.

He then suddenly leaves to see the Chief Governor. Bal and Ten wait for him to go.

Ten:

Incompetent actions? Both of us were nearly destroyed because of him.

Bal:

You think he really cares about us? All he wants to do is impress the Chief. Where could they have gotten to?

Ten:

An interesting question, Bal. I am beginning to question our new Chief Governor and his aid assistant.

Bal:

But if you plot against the Chief Governor then you will suffer only one penalty!

Ten:

I fully understand the consequences of treason. This matter we must keep between ourselves. We after all must work together in order to survive, and see it fit that we serve our race the best cause of progress.

Bal:

Yes, yes. I know all that.

Ten:

Are you with me then, Bal?

Bal stops to think to himself, and finally comes to an answer.

Bal:

I am, Ten. I am.
