Parallel: From Another World [1] (The Parallel Series) ✓

New Earth - Three

"It wasn't me!" Cassandra cried out in panic as the people carrying every disease ever slowly walked closer and closer.

"One touch and you get every disease in the world, and I want that body safe, Cassandra." The Doctor shouted and then noticed the path to the stairs were free he grabbed Rose's hand again "We've got to go down!" He shouted at her while running over to the stairs.

"But there's thousands of them!" She cried out yet again.

"Run!" He ordered Cassandra and Chip down and then running down with Rose. "Down! Down! Go down!" The Doctor, Rose, Cassandra and Chip all ran down the stairs while the infected people followed. "

"Repeat, this building is under quarantine. No one may leave the premises. Repeat, no one may leave the premises" A voice though the speaker informed everyone while the group continued heading down the stairs.

"Keep going! Go down!" The Doctor told Cassandra and Chip knowing that Rose would most likely not object.

The group continue to travel down the stairs, the Doctor and Rose only a few stairs behind Cassandra and Chip.  Cassandra then noticed a lift and started to run for it "No, the lifts have closed down." The Doctor stopped "That's the quarantine. Nothing's moving."

Cassandra frantically looked around trying to see another way hearing the people closely behind her.  "This way!" She shouts pointing to the direction of what was her lair and then heading for it Cassandra ran ahead of the others only really caring about herself. The Doctor turns around to see Chip had stopped and started to panic as the infected people approach cutting off the exits and leaving him trapped 

"Someone will touch him." The Doctor shouts as Cassandra continued to run.

"Leave him!" Cassandra shouted over her shoulder causing Rose to gasp in horror at how rude the woman was being "He's just a clone thing." She rolled her eyes at the blonde and then added: "He's only got a half life. Come on!" She ordered the pair to follow.

Chip slowly backed away and begged Cassandra "Mistress!" his face drained of colour as he watched the woman run in the opposite direction.

"I'm sorry," The Doctor reaches out an arm unable to help while Rose looked at the man with the pity Cassandra never had "We can't let her escape." She added her eyes watering with tears. Chip never deserved this even if he did help Cassandra take Rita's body he didn't deserve death. The pair turned and ran after Cassandra hearing Chips cries begging for his Mistress behind them.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------- 

The trio ran through an arch and entered Cassandra's lair the Doctor shutting the open door behind him. Cassandra headed straight for the back door not looking back at the pair or mourning after what definitely looked like Chips death.  "We're trapped!" Cassandra gasped leaning against the back door that held some of the many infected humans behind it. "What am I going to do?!" She cried out. 'Always about yourself isn't it Cassandra?'

"I have had enough of you and you comments kid!" Cassandra shouted like a psycho. The Doctor and Rose frowned at the woman's screams. "All you do is comment about everything 'Cassandra you're so rude, 'Cassanda you're disgusting'" She huffed, the Doctor and Rose stared at her looking very confused.

"Rita?" Rose questioned in disbelieve stepping closer to the brunette.

"God she's so annoying, I have better things to worry about like getting the hell out of here" Cassandra rolled her eyes. Rita grinned or would have if she wasn't trapped in her own mind.

"Well, for starters," The Doctor stepped towards the woman and stood next to Rose "you're going to leave that body." he said darkly then pointed his sonic "That psychograft is banned on every civilised planet." He shouted, "You're compressing Rita to death." He shot daggers at the woman with his eyes.
