Episode 13: The Water's Song Part 1

Previously:
“Who did you see?” Natalie repeated.
“It was the devil,” Delilah answered, then tears gathered in her eyes as she added, “He said I was gonna die!”
“The Master and his TARDIS, and the Doctor and his,” Rack said smiling, “What a show this will be!” Rack cackled and vanished in a puff of smoke.
“Then let’s do it!” Mrs Harrbungershon ordered and her cult stood up, “We will escape and destroy this defence, and from here the world! Oh it was a bad idea of theirs to put us in a cell together, was it not?”
“CHARGE!” Dash ordered and the whole cult pushed against the iron bars of the cell, and the door smashed off its hinges.
“We need to warn him about the Aquari!” Sara replied, “He can’t release them into the ocean!”
“Because we did that on our home planet, and a few days later the seas rose and destroyed the land,” Sam explained, “We are the only survivors of our race.”
The Aquari particles poured out of huge vats on the side of the sea defence wall. This happened all over the world.
“The Aquari particles grow and mature when they are placed in water, when there is enough space for them to materialise the particles turn into a body of water. This water-body, which I call an Aquari, can pull push, squeeze and expand the water around it,” Mr. Toil explained.
Natalie stood frozen in shock as Korena realised what was going on, the water’s of the world were rising.
Rack giggled and waved at Amita and Delilah.
Georgia, Conner, Lee and Donald stared as the Thames Barrier was smashed by the hordes of Aquari.
“Who are you?” the Doctor asked Mr. Toil.
“Oh, haven’t you realised yet?” Mr. Toil asked, “I am the Master!”


In 2011 two men struggled against the heavy snowfall, as they walked across the glacier.
“Come on Spike,” Mr. Toil told the other man, “We’re nearly at the spot!”
“I really think we should tell someone,” Spike replied.
“Nobody would believe us,” Mr. Toil said, “I mean we are going to save the ice caps with these Aquari particles.”
“They bind together the water molecules so it protects the solid ice structure,” Spike said, “I think the public would believe that.”
“Yes, but the public are so stupid in these years,” Mr. Toil muttered.
“That’s an odd thing to say,” Spike replied.

“We’re here,” Mr. Toil said, ignoring Spike’s comment. They had stopped at a place in the ice, where there were several cracks. Some of them were very large, big enough for a man to slip through.
“Right, so we just pour the Aquari into these gaps,” Spike said, pulling out a large test tube from his rucksack. Mr. Toil did the same.
“Yes, everything must go into these gaps,” Mr. Toil said.
“You are being very odd today,” Spike commented, “But I suppose this isn’t a normal day.” Spike poured the particles into the gap, and Mr. Toil did the same.
“So you say you’ll tell the public what we’ve done when we get back,” Mr. Toil asked Spike.
“I suppose we should,” Spike nodded, “We may even be greeted as heroes, the saviours from the rising waters.”
“I’d advise you not to,” Mr. Toil replied.
“I’ve got to if you don’t,” Spike said.
“Then this is your own doing,” Mr. Toil muttered.
“Are you sure there’s enough particles to stop the melting?” Spike said looking into the largest gap in the ice.
“Oh there’ll be enough!” Mr. Toil snarled pushing Spike towards the crack. Spike slipped and fell down through the crack into the darkness.
“Well that’s him out of the way,” Mr. Toil said, “Now, to the future! By that time all the particles in place will have matured, ready to take over the Earth!”

THE CREDITS

Georgia and Conner watched as the water began to swallow up London. Mr Chilvers, Natalie’s boss, had been celebrating in a street near his workplace. Now he watched and wept as the water destroyed his supermarket and swept him away.

“Georgia, we have to phone Korena!” Conner told Georgia.
“If you phone her, I’ll phone Natasha!” Lee told them.
“Who’s Natasha?” Georgia asked, still staring at the surge of water, which was beginning to destroy the city of London.
“My girlfriend’s twin!” Lee replied, pulling out his phone.

Natasha was walking down some stone steps when her phone rang. She pulled it out and saw that it was Lee.
“Oh, hi Lee,” Natasha said, “What’s going on? Do you know why the teleports are down?”
“Yes, it’s a man, but that’s not important,” Lee replied, “Where are you?”
“I’m nearly back at my flat, I’m having to walk though,” Natasha said.
“But where?” Lee asked.
“The underground,” Natasha replied.
“How close to the Thames are you?” Lee asked.
“Not that far from it, why?” Natasha asked.
“You’ve got to get out of there now!” Lee ordered, “There’s a surge of water heading your way, the Thames barrier has broken, you’ve got to get out!”
“But... hang on, what’s that noise?” Natasha said, as she heard the roar of the approaching water. She looked up the long flight of steps and she saw a wall of water appearing at the top.

“Oh my God, I’m going to die!” Natasha exclaimed, as she began to run down the steps. The other people around her were screaming and running too. She reached the bottom and ran across the floor towards an underground station, but the water was right behind her. She turned and saw water coming from the underground train tunnel too, and in every direction water was pouring and surging towards her.

“NATASHA!” Lee yelled down the phone, as he heard Natasha scream. It seemed that Natasha had ended the call. Natasha hadn’t even had the chance to tell Lee her greatest secret.


The Prime Minister rushed round Downing Street, as reports of water rising and destroying places around the world were reaching him. The Prime Minister ran into Julian as he headed up the stairs.
“I’m so sorry sir,” Julian said, “I just found out all the teleports are down, but we can get your shuttle here.”
“What are you talking about?” the Prime Minister asked.
“We have to get you out of here sir,” Julian explained.
“I’m not leaving,” the Prime Minister replied.
“But we have to have somebody to control the country,” Julian exclaimed.
“You need to go now!” the Prime Minister told Julian, “You have to get to Lee and Donald’s office, see if they can do anything.”

“How am I supposed to get there?” Julian asked.
“My emergency teleport,” the Prime Minister explained.
“What emergency teleport?” Julian questioned.
“They are extremely rare,” the Prime Minister replied, “The only other person in Britain to have one is the King and Queen. Now I want you to take it, and get to the office.”
“But, I can’t take this,” Julian said, “And I’m not leaving you!”
“Do this, for me,” the Prime Minister replied, and Julian hugged him to the surprise of the Prime Minister.
“You can ... go... now,” the Prime Minister replied with a shocked expression on his face, as Julian vanished. There was a scream and Cameron Davis ran over to the Prime Minister.

“The water’s here,” Cameron informed the Prime Minister, “We can’t get out.” The people inside Number 10 turned as the water surged through the iron gates and into the street.
“Good luck sir,” the Prime Minister told Cameron as they shook hands.


Sam and Sara’s spaceship was heading away from Earth, but then it stopped.
“What are you doing?” Sara asked.
“It’s happening again,” Sam replied, “The Earth is being destroyed.”
“Oh no,” Sara said, “Why didn’t they believe us?” Sara made a frustrated noise as she began to cry.
“We should help somebody,” Sam said, “We have to because we didn’t before...”
“The guilt factor...” Sara muttered.

“I have all kinds of distress calls coming in,” Sam explained, “They all say the same, the water’s coming, we’re going to die.”
“Then how can we choose who to save?” Sara asked.
“Wait, what about this one?” Sam asked, playing the distress call.
“Can anybody hear me?” Captain Alton’s voice said, “This is Captain Alton of sea defence 2.12/2.13, can you hear me? We are being attacked, the water has broken through in several parts, but it isn’t affecting us. We are being attacked by a cult, who is going to try and help destroy the world, please help us! There are so many of them, they have shuttles from around the globe heading here too!” The message stopped and Sara pushed Sam off the driving seat.
“Let’s go!” Sara ordered, spinning the spaceship back towards Earth and she began to drive full pelt back towards it.


“You can’t be,” the Doctor muttered, “You can’t be!”
“I am the Master,” the Master said smiling, “I used to be head of Aquari Aquatics when the company began, where I began to grow the Aquari particles, but they were growing too slow. Somebody told me that the 40th Century was another favourite of yours, seeing as your new companion Korena comes from there.”

“So you began your work in the 21st Century and then came to the 40th so you could finish it,” the Doctor finished.
“Correct,” the Master replied, “I began to test them in the Arctic, which is why Quentin over there saw hundreds of them frozen in the ice.” Quentin looked up from his hot drink, as he heard his name.
“Master, please stop this!” the Doctor ordered, “And oh... I recognise you now.”
“My disguise fooled the Doctor, it wasn’t even one of my best,” the Master commented, “And sorry can’t stop this, you’re all going to die and I’m just going to pop back to the present. Bye!”
“Master!” the Doctor shouted and the Master stopped, “What are you doing here, last time I saw you...”
“Well I was fighting your third incarnation when I met a certain someone,” the Master explained, “Who told me my methods were useless because he’d met you in your tenth incarnation, he even took me to see you, to prove it to me. I realised that I’d have to travel to the future and kill you in this incarnation, so I wouldn’t meddle in time.”
“But don’t you realise, I’ve met you so many times since my third incarnation, this person is meddling with time!” the Doctor replied.
“After my victory here, this person may leave me alone,” the Master muttered.
“But who is this person?” the Doctor asked.
“Rack,” the Master replied simply.


Amita and Delilah moved swiftly over to the window, where they saw a surge of water heading their way.
“Did you do this?” Delilah asked Rack, who was still standing waving.
“Oh no,” Rack replied.
“But you can’t be the devil!” Amita shrieked, “I don’t believe it can be you.” Rack smiled at Amita.
“Amita, we need to get out of here!” Delilah said, “Never mind him.” Suddenly the building shook as a huge wave hit it and water sprayed through some of the windows. The people in the night club all turned and screamed as water began to surge through the windows and the building shook again.

“You are lucky that your time is not yet ripe,” Rack said smiling. Suddenly, Amita and Delilah vanished from the night club, as the water began to destroy it.
“Where did the humans go?” one Aquari asked another.
“I don’t know, but let’s kill these ones!” the other Aquari hissed, as it smashed into a human, who died instantly.
“Haha, this is fun!” the first Aquari giggled in a high voice, as it smashed out the other side of the night club, after the Aquari had killed all the humans inside.


“Downing Street has been destroyed, I repeat Downing Street is gone,” Sheba the newsreader was saying, she looked incredibly scared and worried. Margaret and Kimiko were watching the news from Lee and Natalie’s flat. Natalie was still frozen by the window.

“Come on Natalie,” Korena told her.
“But my friends were in a night club by the Thames, and my sister,” Natalie squeaked, “Oh God, I hope Lee’s alright.”
“Will we be alright here?” Kimiko asked.
“We’re pretty high up,” Korena replied.
“But the water destroyed buildings that were much taller than it,” Natalie muttered, “In Los Angeles.”
“Hai,” Margaret muttered.

“The statue of Liberty has been swept away,” Sheba continued, “The Royal family are being airlifted out of Buckingham palace, the Taj Mahal has been destroyed and I’ve just been told that the Pyramids of Giza, have collapsed due to huge landslides in Egypt.”
“This is terrible,” Kimiko commented, as Korena’s phone began to ring, “I need to phone Kaito again.”

“Georgia?” Korena said answering her phone, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine, tell Natalie that Lee is too, you?” Georgia replied.
“I’m good, but the world’s being destroyed,” Korena muttered, “Are you high up somewhere?”
“Yes, don’t worry we’re in one of the tallest building in London, you?” Georgia asked.
“Lee’s flat is pretty high up, but Natalie said that the Aquari destroyed the foundations of buildings,” Korena explained, “Are you with the Doctor?”
“No, he’s downstairs, but he’s alright,” Georgia replied, “Oh and Korena, Natalie’s twin, Natasha is dead, please can you break it to Natalie.”
“Of course I will,” Korena replied.
“I’d better go,” Georgia replied, “Bye!”
“Me too, good luck, speak later,” Korena said, ending the call.


Kaito and his colleagues were gathered beside the window of the skyscraper that they had been working in. They could see Tokyo city being destroyed by huge waves and surges of water.
“Can you see that?” Kaito asked his friend.
“See what?” Kaito’s fried and colleague, Etsuko, replied.
“There’s something in the water!” Kaito replied, “Is this building safe?”
“I think so,” Etsuko answered, “It has a steel mainframe.”
“Then we should be safe,” Kaito muttered, “But then... Los Angeles.”
“Los Angeles is America,” Etsuko pointed out, “Their workmanship is nowhere near as good as the Japanese.”
“What about England?” Kaito asked, “My wife and mum are there, and my daughter and my nephew... my brother too.”
“I’m sure they’ll be fine, if they stay up high,” Etsuko replied, as Kaito’s phone began to ring and Kaito pulled it out from his jacket pocket.

“Hello?” Kaito said.
“Kaito!” Kimiko said.
“Kimiko, are you alright? How are Korena and Margaret?” Kaito asked.
“They are both fine and Lee and Natalie,” Kimiko explained, “We’re all in high buildings. Are you still in that skyscraper?”
“Yes, I had to attend another meeting, as I was still here,” Kaito explained, “But the meeting’s been cancelled, and Tokyo is being destroyed.”
“I know, it’s very bad,” Kimiko replied, “I will talk to you later.”
‘You’d better,” Kaito muttered.


Lee, Donald, Georgia and Conner rushed down from the roof.
“Doctor!” Georgia yelled, “The barrier has broken, there’s water everywhere! We’ve got to do something!”
“Your companions,” the Master cackled.
“Who is he?” Georgia asked.
“The Master, he’s a Time Lord,” the Doctor explained.
“But you said you were the only one,” Conner muttered.
“He shouldn’t be here, he’s meddling in time,” the Doctor replied.
“What do you mean you thought you were the only one?” the Master asked.
“It doesn’t matter, listen to me you have to stop this!” the Doctor ordered.

“Did you kill Ken?” Lee asked the Master.
“Oh, Ken, poor Ken, yes,” the Master answered smiling, “Ken Barret, head of Aquari Aquatics in the late 40th Century, but he realised that I was really in control, he found out about the Aquari.”
“So you killed him?” Lee replied.
“That’s right,” the Master said smiling.
“You’re a horrid man,” Lee snarled.
“Thank you,” the Master said smiling.

“Did you kill Antony too?” Quentin asked, “With your Aquari.”
“Well my Aquari tried to kill you too,” the Master explained, “You were in their spot, they were told to kill anyone who roamed to close. Anyway I’d better go...” The Master cackled as he vanished.

“What’s that?” Georgia asked.
“He’s teleported himself to his TARDIS,” the Doctor muttered, “And Rack must be somewhere around too.”
“Rack?” Conner exclaimed, “Not him again, he’s tried to kill me twice!”
“Let’s just hope Petr and Pippa don’t turn up,” the Doctor replied.

“Come on, we need to check how high the water is downstairs,” Lee said, “Follow me!” Lee rushed out of the room, followed closely by Donald, Georgia and Conner, leaving the Doctor and Quentin.


Captain Alton, pushed a large bench against the door of the lab and Private Rolf and Nash pushed the sofa against it.
“That’ll stop them,” Captain Alton muttered.
“Sir there’s loads of them!” Private Nash replied.
“What about the shuttles?” Private Rolf asked.
“I... don’t know,” Captain Alton replied.
“What about the water?” Private Rolf asked.
“We’re going to die!” Private Nash exclaimed.
“Shuttles now less than 1000 metres away, and they’re accelerating!” Private Rolf announced, staring at one of the computer screens in horror. Captain Alton rushed to the window, where he could see several shuttles heading their way. There was a banging on the door as the cult reached it.

“You’re not going to survive!” Mrs Harrbungershon shouted from the other side of the door as Private Rolf and Nash pushed against the barricade, so the cult wouldn’t get in.


Lee, Donald, Georgia and Conner rushed down a flight of stairs to the next floor, where they found Julian staring at a TV.

“The Prime Minister’s dead!” Julian shrieked.
“I know, alot of people are dead,” Lee said sadly.
“What are you doing here?” Donald asked.
“The Prime Minister gave me his emergency teleport, they aren’t linked with the system,” Julian explained.
“But why here?” Georgia asked confused, “I’m Georgia by the way, and this is Conner and the Doctor...”
“He must still be upstairs,” Conner replied.
“The Prime Minister said you could try and reverse what’s happened,” Julian muttered.
“Of course we’ll try,” Lee said.
“I’m sure the Doctor could help too,” Georgia said smiling, “Lets go find him.”
“I’ll check where the water’s reached,” Lee replied, “See you upstairs in a bit.” Lee continued down the stairs, followed closely by Donald Digit.

“Do you want to come with us?” Georgia asked, “There are some comfier seats upstairs, and a coffee machine.”
“Alright,” Julian muttered, and Georgia helped him up. When Georgia, Conner and Julian reached the top floor, where Lee and Donald’s office was, Georgia realised that something was wrong. The TARDIS was slowly fading from sight.

“The TARDIS is dematerialising!” Georgia shrieked, “DOCTOR!”
“I’m sorry, I couldn’t stop him,” Quentin said quietly, from his seat, where he was still huddled up because of the cold he had endured at the Arctic.
“DOCTOR!” Conner shouted, as the TARDIS faded away, “DOCTOR! YOU CAN’T LEAVE US HERE!”
“DOCTOR! PLEASE COME BACK!” Georgia screamed.
