The Plot Moves Forward

The "Professor"

She was with the Renegade Daleks and things are as Betty say they are as far as that, Inquirer sends into my mind, So....how did the thing with "Chunky" go?

I answer that question while the others went and aided Ace with the unconscious child.

"Oh rather well, thanks." I say, smiling a slight smile, failing to add more details than that. Why go into the messy details, eh? So I will not mention...er...the fact that I had a less than stellar encounter with the Gilmore....

....

Wonder how he got that nickname of "Chunky"?

Ah, never mind! Anyway, now I guess that after all the rather unexpected twists and turns today I guess which I and Ace have faced I can be excused for being a bit out of sorts. Usually, believe me, I have a much better reportiore with others.

I believe, however, that I have gotten a firmer grip on things now, however. Time to get down to business and actually step up things so those who should get their grubby protrudences on the Hand of Omega.

We use a modified, abreviated "script" that my television counterpart used in his show. We have to move quickly against the clock because of two things, of course. First, there is the fact that the sanity of a fairy woman is at stake...... Gads! Next thing you know I will be believing in ghosts! Hrmph. The second thing is that we still have to wrap this all up before the resident Doctor of this reality pays us a visit! I fear that we've been taking longer than we liked. See, in no less than three hours that fellow will show up, and if we are still around....and I fear that I am having a touch of a problem with Gilmore and his friends. Oh, they are being cooperative enough with my and the others suggestions....but that Gilmore is not as easily distracted by my means of "verbal chaff" as I had hoped. We soon must be away and that shall be hard if he is still underfoot, asking questions!

Besides, I have a few things I'd like to say in private with both the Dalek Emperor and then that accursed Battle Computer! Especially that Battle Computer! I rather would like...talking it to death after what it did to that young girl! She shall recover, not even remembering exactly what happened to her, but I can not stomach thinking about how they slaved her imagination to their dark plans!

Inquirer has taken up the task of distracting Gilmore and that scientific advisor of his while I am repairing that broken Transmat (letting me concentrate on the task at hand) when something unexpected happened. Gilmore....stops talking! All but my group have frozen in place.

"Alright," a tall, young seeming man growls as he appears out of thin air right before me, "Now how in the name of the Gods are you able to travel through time without using the Beam or another form of magic?"

Over in the corner of the basement of this school are my and the Doctor's TARDISes.

"I magically examined those vehicles before bringing them here," the young man continues, looking annoyed at them before turning back, "Somehow they don't have the similar characteristics as the only ways I know of capable of such feats!"

"Zerm." Inquirer says softly, taken aback by this turn of events.

From the small clues I have gotten here I take it that somehow our future selves, having gone back into time back on Terra Prime to gather those coordinates of this Zerm's reality...and I have a sneaking suspicion that he noticed and intercepted them in the act! I believe that I have....er...will have tantalized this fellows interest with a look at time travel without means he's used to.

That is what I take it as and I hope that I am right!

....

You know, I believe that is the first time I have ever had the events of my future intrude on my present. Wonder if that television series ever did something like that! Rather doubt it, because........

....

No, no bets there. I find this entire business of my life being told (if not always accurately)....odd to say the least! Wonder how my "twin" ever got used to it...

Ah, but back to business!

1. That's my cue to do what I do best, I improvise!
