*Space bar*

A large blue skinned alien is packing a small case.

"Goodbye."

"You appear to be closing down, Dorium. What have you heard?"

"That you pricked the side of a mighty beast, Madame Kovarian, and entirely failed to run. I admire your courage. I should like to admire it from afar."

"We've been waiting a month. They've done nothing."

"Do you really think so? There are people all over this galaxy that owe those two a debt. By now, a few of them will have found a blue box waiting for them on their doorstep, poor devils."

"You think they're raising an army?"

"You think they aren't? If those two are finally collecting on their debts, God help you, and God help their debtors."

"Why?"

"Colonel Manton, all those stories you've heard about them, they're not stories, they're true. Really. You're not telling me you don't know what's coming?"

"We're wasting our time here."

"Agreed."

"The asteroid, where you've made your base. Do you know why they call it Demon's Run?"

"How do you know the location of our base?"

"You're with the Headless Monks. They're old customers of mine."

"It's just some old saying."

"A very old saying. The oldest. Demons run when a good man goes to war" Kovarian and Manton leave. Dorium is about to leave when the TARDIS sound is heard "no. No, no, please. Not me. You two don't need me. Why would you both need me?" the doors open and a reflection of two people standing in the doorway can be seen on the wall behind Dorium "I'm old, I'm fat, I'm blue. You can't need me!"

*Demon's Run*

Colonel Manton addresses his assembled troops.

"They are not the devil. They are not gods. They are not goblins, or phantoms or tricksters. The Doctor and {Y/N} are living, breathing people, and as I look around this room I know one thing. We're sure as hell going to fix that" the troops cheer.

*White room*

Amy is watching the rally from her window. Lorna enters.

"Sorry. I shouldn't be here. I'm meant to be at the thing. I brought you something. Your child's name in the language of my people. It's a prayer leaf and we believe, if you keep this with you, your child will always come home to you" It is what she was sewing earlier.

"Can I borrow your gun?" Amy asks.

"Why?"

"Because I've got a feeling you're going to keep talking" she turns back to the window "they're talking like their famous. The Doctor and {Y/N} aren't famous."

"They meet a lot of people. Some of them remember. Their sort of like a, I don't know, a dark legend."

"Dark? Have you met them?"

"Yeah. But I was just a little girl."

"So was I."

"You've been with them a long time, then."

"No. They came back for me."

"You must be very special."

"Hey. You can wait a long time for the Doctor and {Y/N}, but they're worth it, ok? The thing is, they're coming. No question about it. Just you make sure you're on the right side when they get here. Not for my sake, for yours" Amy takes the prayer leaf "thank you."

*Demon's Run*

"On this day, in this place, the Doctor and {Y/N} will fall."

"Hoo-Rah!"
