Episode X: Georgia and the Magnet Warriors Part 3

The Doctor was still surrounded.

“Right, so I’m surrounded. Do you want to know how I got on board?” he asked.
“You will tell us,” Commander Marr ordered, as the Doctor got the key out for the TARDIS, and put his back against it.
“Well the thing with Time Lords is," said the Doctor, trying to unlock the TARDIS door undetected. “The thing is that Time Lords usually come with Time machines. TARDIS’ they're called. They travel through Time and Space disappearing there and reappearing here. Just here,” the Doctor opened the door. “Lesson over!”
“FIRE!”,Commander Marr shouted, as the TARDIS faded away.

Back on Earth, Georgia had arrived home.

“You’re very early dear, been fired?” Elizabeth, her mum asked.
“Mum don’t you watch the news? It’ll be on there,” Georgia asked.
“I did. There’s nothing on. It’s going on about a tennis player who hurt himself in Paris,” Elizabeth told Georgia.
“But then,” Georgia began, turning on the TV.
“Yes, there are no signs that anything bad will happen this Christmas, but there are still two weeks to go,” a newsreader was saying.

Georgia changed channel.

“There are some reports of glittering things floating into the sky in South London, but these are false,” another was saying on ITV.

Georgia changed channel again, feeling frustrated.

“The UNIT ship Valiant is on the move. It seems to be heading for London. No-one has told us why,” the American newsreader Trinity Wells was saying.
“As the Spidership nears completion...”
“A kidnapper has escaped from a high security...”
“Yes I’m very proud of me goat and I ‘ope he does very well in this years agricultural...”
“Come on everyone, get your decorations up! Its two weeks till Christmas, but will it snow?”

Georgia switched the television off very annoyed.

“I told you there was nothing on TV. I thought you had a hangover, you shouldn’t have gone into work today,” Elizabeth mentioned triumphantly.
“Oh shut up mum! I’m right for once so shut up!” Georgia shouted, running out of the house.

Georgia got more and more annoyed the closer it got to Christmas. Brian was too scared to leave the house, and her mum was being more horrible as the days went by. Then on Christmas Eve, Georgia got home from the bakery.

“Afternoon Georgia, good day at work?” Georgia’s father, Colin, asked.
“Fine, except now I’m home,” Georgia muttered.
“There’s no need to take a tone like that,” Elizabeth said.
“I’m amazed you haven’t said 'did you get fired?',” Georgia mentioned.
“Well, it could happen any day now! No GCSE’s,” Georgia’s mum muttered.
“That’s it! You always bring that up! And do you want to know why I didn’t retake them?” Georgia asked. “Because of you!”

Georgia stormed out of the house.

“You should be nicer to her. She’s a good girl,” Colin commented to Elizabeth.

UNIT was still on red alert, and the ship was still looking down on the Earth menacingly. Colonel Mace and Captain Price were very worried. Torchwood Cardiff were working on something to blow the ship up.

“Any news from Torchwood?” Colonel Mace asked.
“No, none, and the ship isn’t doing anything,” Captain Gifford told him, on the morning of Christmas Eve. “Wait! It’s moving! It is moving slowly, but it’s heading straight for London.”

Georgia was sitting on a park bench when she saw another cloaked figure. Then she was distracted by a loud scraping noise. She whipped round to see a man emerging from a blue wooden box.



“Oh dear old girl,” the man said to the box. “You’re a bit bumpy today. Perhaps it's indigestion.”

The man turned around to see Georgia staring at him.

“Anyway, hello," The man said to her.
“Hello,” Georgia said back.
“Right... Have you seen a cloaked figure with an overly large head?” The man asked.
“Yes, he went that way” Georgia answered.

The man was about to run off when Georgia stopped him.

“Um don’t just go running off. That box just appeared out of nowhere, and you’re about to run off without thanking me. I’m Georgia.”

Georgia smiled widely while the Doctor’s face was blank.

“I’m the doctor and... Thanks,” the Doctor said nervously.

He tried to get away, but Georgia held on.

“You’re nice. I’m bored, do you need help with anything?"

The Doctor hesitated, but then the Earth shook, and Georgia heard screaming people. Suddenly there was a flash of light and the TARDIS vanished.

“Maybe I do need some help. Do you have a computer?” The Doctor asked quickly.
“Yes of course, at home,” Georgia said.
“Then we need to get there.”

Meanwhile, back at UNIT headquarters, Captain Price was tracking the ship.

“Its broken through the atmosphere,” Captain Price announced.
“Now we’re in trouble,” Colonel Mace muttered. “Is the Valiant nearly ready?"
“Yes it is, and we’ve got the air force ready,” Captain Gifford confirmed.



On the ship Commander Marr was laughing.

“We have no need for the Time Lord now. With his TARDIS we can take the world,” Commander Marr smiled. “We shall suck this world's jewels up tonight! And we will eat the humans!”

The whole army cackled as the generators began to burn and fizz.
