| Agent 4 smiled at his Rule counterpart, and then puts down the small
monkey wrench he'd been fiddling with.
"Weeellll, you know that your boss and my boss have been waiting patiently
within that Master's TARDIS awaiting for the Doctor to make the scene?"
Agent 4 smiled. "While they were somewhat surprised that it was that Walker
chick, instead of the Doctor who actually did him in....ifin it
hadn't turned out the other way and the Master had better luck. He COULD
have figured out he deal, wammied a mage, and removed those wards so he'd
be the first one in the TARDIS....and get the prize."
"Yes, about that," the Rule says, curious despite himself. "What
WAS that whole deal about? I've been a bit busy with that debacle that
that SOB Rayek caused."
"As well as I and my other brothers," Agent 4 smiled at the surprised
look on his counterparts face. "Yep, even the Agents of Chaos were called
in to take up some of the slack. But be it as it maybe, I got this work
order from the Ones......"
The Rule scanned the memo....and whistled softly.
These worlds played follow the leader when that one Master sent a signal
to his TARDIS. It then sent out a modulated Chonostatic inversion signal
out to the VLA assemblies on the Earth he had targeted. That caused a sympathetic
reaction within the OTHER nearby parallel worlds, the reaction hypothesized
by a brilliant but....well.... eccentric citizen of Logopolis. The Master
who caused this knew that the reaction would stop the destabilization effect
in his universe, at the expense of two other universes' Earths. The VLAs
of THOSE Earths instead of exploding from the lines of force and whipping
out humanity....instead caused space and time to twist and warp. Those
Earths (and an area that went out to three times the distance of their
Moons) were ripped bodily from their Temporal mooring....and sent hurtling
into the realm of infinite possibility....the realm between universes (the
realm of the Agents of Chaos, in this case). These Earths' VLAs, still
operating after a fashion (though not in the way designed by man or intended
by the Masters), acted like what could only be described as a eldritch
magnet, and followed the wildly out of control spiraling path of one young,
red headed actress who'd been born on an Earth that dwelled within Addventure
space/time. That Melissa that had been hit by a Space-Time Ripple and thought
totally erased from existence by her Doctor (who subscribed to a school
of thought on that matter that several of his other counterparts did not....).
That Melissa had instead been teleported to the garage of Agent 4....with
her Matrix rather....damaged from the process (over time her size would
shift to odd extremes without warning). Agent 4 had frozen her right before
she'd grown to a towering 20 meter tall giant. Right now, she was the size
of a Terran elf. "I've contacted Rule 4,111 and his counterpart," Agent
4 smiled, picking at his teeth with a switchblade. "The whole things a
go. This Earth will go to a system that's something like fifty light years
away from Terra Prime. That Earth will go to another star system five hundred
light years away."
The worlds in question disappear and replaced barren rocky worlds who
hadn't had the....little something to start life. Rule 4 nods, seeing that
though nothing like their old solar systems, the Earthlings would find
enough to make a decent civlization when...and IF they ever got off their
planet.
"These other Doctors and such are going to be wondering, along with
the whole of those Earths, just where the bleedin' heck they are," Agent
4 smiled, liking the surprised looks he could see on several human faces.
"Of course....unlike the Doctor on Terra Prime.....those other Doctors
won't have a way of getting back to THEIR universe," Rule 4 sighed. "You
planned that, didn't you."
"Yep," the Agent said, unrepentant. "Now, as for this Melissa, she has
a bit of a problem. I actually have a use for her, but her Matrix.....well....."
Melissa's form fades out into a blur.
"While I was tempted on altering her Matrix to make her a dragoness
or a griffin," the smiling Agent says. "But then....that would cause more
problems than it be worth. The laugh factor isn't high enough for me....."
"You mean that I and the other Rules may have a few....words with you,"
Rule 4 said coldly. "Your and my purpose may have been null and void by
what those people at Logopolis did....."
"Ah, but don't you have fun just trying to figure out and fowl my jokes,
eh?" the Agent smiled. Oh, he'd never do anything to actually HARM anyone
in the long run, but could you blame him for trying?
Actually, Rule 4.....like his cousins 1 thorugh 3, did just that. But
trying to correct the Agents ways was a hopeless task. Rules were rules.
Agents were Agents, sad as that was.
"Ah, so we just do this," Agent four says. Melissa's ears suddenly grow
a bit larger and pointed....and she loses all body hair except for that
on her head (don't make me go into details.....). Finally, she becomes
a third lighter than what a human person her size would suggest.
-
 "Now, go my
little rose blossom and invite the Doctor to his new TARDIS," the Agent
whispers tenderly into Melissa's now elfin ears. "Go and invite him....and
while you're at it tell a certain dressmaker...."
Go Back
