TIME OF THE ANGELS
P A R T F O U R

"ISN'T THERE A CHANCE that this lot is going to collapse" Amy asked as we all followed the doctor through the cave, using our flashlights

"There's a whole ship up there."

"Incredible builders, the Aplans." River said

"Had dinner with the chief architect once, two head better than one." The doctor said stopping as we all did behind him

"So you helped him?" Amy asked staring at the back of his head

"No, I mean he had two heads" the doctor said "that book at the end, What did it say?"

"Hang on." River said grabbing the boom out of her bag

"Read it to me"

"What if we had ideas that could think for themselves? What if one day our dreams no longer needed us? When these things occur and are held to be true. The time will be upon us. The time of the angels"

River finished reading as I watched the statues in deep thought. The doctor set off again, is behind him as we followed him up the levels of the city.

"Are we There yet, it's a hell of a climb" Amy said as she walked behind me.

"The maze is on six levels representing the ascent of the soul, only two levels to go." River answered Amy's question as we followed everyone through the levels

"Lovely species the aplans. We should visit them sometime." The doctor said turning Back to Amy briefly before walking on.

"I thought hey were all dead."

"So is virgins wolf, I'm on her bowling team, very relaxed sorta cheerful. You're never short of a snog with an extra head"

"There's something"

"There's something wrong." Doctor Said cutting of river "Yea I don't know either working on it ."

We entered a room of of statues shining our touches at each one.

"Course then they started having laws against self marrying. I mean, what was hat about? But that's the church for you. No offence bishop"

The doctor told Octavian

"Quite a lot taken if that's alright Doctor." Bishop Said aka Octavian as he pushed forward

I followed the group, blocking out everyone's voices. Staying quite.There was something wrong the doctor was right but what was it.

"Oh my god." I Said when I finally realised

"Oh"

"Oh"

The doctor and river both said after me

I pushed through everyone I came next to the doctor and watched the statue.

I glanced at Amy and the bishop who was in front and everyone else that was being me and the doctor

"How could we not notice that." River said glancing between me and the doctor

"Low level perception filter." The doctor said

"I think we are just thick." I Said going to move towards Amy but was stopped by the doctors arm coming out in front of me

"Everyone stay exactly where they are. Bishop I'm truly sorry I've made a mistake and we are all in terrible danger." The doctor said

"What danger?" Bishop asked
