On reaching Manhattan, Malachi searches from the air for a suitable
spot for them to camp for the night. That is about the time they both spot
spot the crew outside a blue box with and that crew spots them. Jarlath's
eye's grow a bit wider when he recognizes them.
"What is Inquirer and the others doing here I wonder?" he mutters
to himself, drawing out a communicator that begins to whistle for his attention
on his belt.
Friends of yours? Malachi sends back to the young mage, looking
down at the odd group below.
"Yes, and also a way to get to the Red Pyramid much quicker, I dare
say!" Astra 9 answers for Jarlath as he begins to speak with those below,
"That and a rather comfortable night's rest before we journey on, at least."
It turns out that that indeed is why the Doctor is here, due to a mysterious
phone call from an earlier self's TARDIS (re: 15531).
Meanwhile, inside that very same Red Pyramid.....
Fred the Manfox has just read in a leather bound tome what has befallen
their missing comrades.
"Oh bloody Hell," he whispers hoarsely, shocked.
Both of Demifox Astra's and Demifox Fred's fox ears quirk in surprise
at the humanoid fox's profanity.
-
"You
found something, brother?" Demifox Fred asks, seeing a look in Fred the
Manfox's eyes.
