DOCTOR WHO

University of the Angels

Chapter 11

The Doctor led both James and Nathan upstairs and into the spare room where the Doctor stayed.

Inside the room, Nathan and James were met with a bizarre scene. The room was bare, apart from the bed, which looked as if it had not been slept in not since the Doctor arrived, but it was the blue police box, which took up most of the room that James, and Nathan included found puzzling.

"What is this?" Nathan said pointing at the blue box.

"I thought you said we were going to take your car?" James recalled to the Doctor.

"This is my car," the Doctor answered reaching into his pocket and bringing out his key. "Well, actually, it's more of a space ship," added the Doctor as he pushed open both doors to the Tardis.

A dark, dim, blue glow shone through the Tardis doors, illuminating James and Nathan's faces. A faint humming from inside seemed to welcome them in.

Wide eyed and gawking, James and Nathan blinked and stared, their mouths open in a wide 'O'.

The Doctor smiled and walked into the Tardis. Slowly James took his first step into the Doctors spaceship. Nathan on the other hand remained outside, his mind forcing him to not to venture anywhere until he was sure what he was seeing was real.

"It's called a Tardis, Time and Relative Dimensions In Space, it can travel anywhere in time and space. And it's also my home." The Doctor told them tapping the side of the console that stood in the middle of the room with a pillar leading up towards the roof.

"Look at this!" James said smiling looking around at the control room that glistened with blue and silver. "Nathan, come in and have a look."

Nathan slowly walked in cautiously. Taking that first step into the Doctor's ship, Nathan felt suddenly at ease. Feeling as if he was going to faint from being thrown into this…alien world all rather unexpectedly, Nathan grabbed hold of the railing next to him. A faint hiss and metallic grinding rumbled as Nathan took hold of the railing to steady himself.

"She likes you," muttered the Doctor. He looked at Nathan and found that he was formulating the words in his mind that were slowly making their way to his mouth, the words that the Doctor seemed to enjoy when one always set their sights on the Tardis. "Go ahead," he said to Nathan. "I know you want to say it, everyone does," the Doctor grinned.

Nathan backed up, unfazed, outside of the Tardis and back into the room. Nathan looked up and down at the blue police box to the bulb on top. Inside, almost as if it compressed into one, he saw James still captivated by the miraculous works, and the Doctor leaning against the control panel waving and smiling at him.

Nathan felt around the sides of the blue box. He had been drugged or he was dreaming this. He pinched himself…Nothing. Not a dream then, he thought to himself.

Nathan, trance like now, walked back into the Tardis.

"It's a blue police box," He said.

The Doctor's smile faded. "Okay," he said unexpectedly. "Not the reaction I was looking for."

Nathan shook his head, almost instantly his mind pieced together the impossible reason to what he was seeing. "This is from the future, right?"

"Yes," the Doctor answered. "Well, sort of, in a way, well, you can argue that one all you want."

"How is it bigger on the inside?" James asked suddenly.

A grin appeared on the Doctor's face. "Oh, I was wondering which of you two would say it first. Thought it was going to be Nathan, but never mind," the Doctor rambled. "The Tardis has a chameleon circuit which when it lands it is made to blend in with its surrounding environment. For example: were you to land in Rome, it would look like a pillar. But the circuit got stuck on an away mission as a blue police box."

"I think it looks suitable." James said.

"Really?" the Doctor asked, James nodded. "I like it to. It looks cool, as do bow ties." smiled the Doctor. He clicked his fingers and the doors to the Tardis closed behind Nathan.

"Oh, that is cool." James said.

The Doctor punched, typed and inputted their co-ordinates. "Now then, the University of Glamorgan, hold tight."

Pulling back on the main lever, the Tardis whirred into life. A grinding and whooshing noise shook and vibrated through the whole console room; lights flashed and up above them, the Tardis room seem to spin. The force of the rocking and jolting of the Tardis that was now in flight kept almost knocking Nathan and James off their feet.

University of the Angels

As the train pulled up just a few clicks east of the University, Kelly quickly jumped off the train, almost 10 minutes late for her two hour session, she had texted her tutor explain the reason why she would be late and that her train had been delayed, her tutor replied 'No problem, take ur time'.

Most Universities would give students a warning for being late, something that Kelly found to be stupid if it concerned transport problems, but Kelly's tutor was very understanding and kind.

Through the journey, Kelly thought about the nightmare she had the night before about Nathan. Will he ever remember? She thought, maybe he never will. Either way, no matter what she thought, there was no denying the fact that she loved him, she always will, nothing could stop that.

She hoped to see him again before she went to class, if not before, maybe after her session had ended, either way she wanted to meet him again.

Kelly approached the University steps and ascended upwards. Everything was quiet around her, save for a small group of students here and there, and two or three passing vehicles that passed the main road in front of the University.

At the top of the steps, Kelly opened the doors and entered into the building, where a massive blast of cold air buffeted her. Her red striped black hair flew behind her. "I just done my hair." she complained. Finally, she stepped into the building, the doors closed behind her rather loudly. Inside the corridor, she heard nothing but silence.

University of the Angels

"Brilliant!" the Doctor Bellowed. "Just brilliant, I have done it again!" he whooped cheerfully. The Doctor earned curious looks from both Nathan and James. "Well," the Doctor said scratching the back of his head. "Technically I sort of worked it out, the Tardis helped a bit."

A gurgling sound emitted from the Tardis router.

"Sorry dear," the Doctor rephrased his previous statement. "The Tardis did figure it out, sort of," the Doctor whispered to himself.

"What have you done exactly?" Nathan asked him frowning.

The Doctor held up the white mobile phone directly into Nathan's face. "Remember this?"

Nathan remembered it clearly. "How could I not?" he asked looking the mobile that was the cause of his accident that night when he collided into the Angel, the mobile phone that seemed to hold such mysteries, mysteries such as why Nathan kept thinking about it but only to forget about it. Even now, Nathan did not want to look at, his eyes were being forced away from it.

The Doctor seemed to smile. "It has a perception filter around it, makes you see things that aren't there, or in this case, makes you think a mobile phone has no importance to it, the same as the letter."

"Letter?" Nathan asked. "Oh, the blank piece of paper you mean, how could I forget about that?" Nathan said, realization dawning on him when he remembered that a glass bottle smashed at his feet containing nothing but a blank piece of paper. That was the night of his and Kelly's first date of sorts. A night of wonder he would cherish most proudly and preciously.

The Doctor picked the blank piece of paper that was lying beside a scanner on the Tardis router. "What do you see?" he asked Nathan showing him the paper.

"Nothing,"

"James, what do you see?"

"Nothing," James replied as the Doctor showed him the blank paper.

"The perception filter is preventing the both of you from seeing the actual message on this paper, you both need to concentrate and focus your minds to see what really is there. Look at the paper and force yourself to see the truth."

Nathan threw the Doctor a pained look mixed with confusion before turning his brown eyes at the paper. He did exactly as the Doctor had instructed him. He focused his mind and narrowed his eyes on what he wanted to see.

He pictured himself starting at a red force field, and imagined that anything that encountered it would instantly incinerate.

Nathan remembered watching the film I, Robot where Sonny, a Robot, attempted to receive some Nanites but a supercomputer had placed a security shield up, and anything that touch the shield would instantly be incinerated. However, Sonny had been built with denser alloy skin in which he was able to stick his arm through the shield just blistering his robotic arm and hand. It was Nathan's favourite film starring Will Smith.

Picturing himself wearing a metal glove that ran up the length of his arm, Nathan quickly stuck his arm through the red force field with ease, and steam emitted from the glove. Before long, the force field flickered and vanished with a sizzling pop!

Nathan was free to emerge to the other side.

Back in reality, Nathan, as he imagined himself reaching through the red-hot force field, saw what appeared to be a line at first, appear in the middle of the paper that the Doctor was holding in front of him.

Soon a series of lines scattered across the paper began to take shape and form to spell a series of words.

"H-H-HE-HEL-" Nathan said trying to read the words that were appearing on the paper.

When the words had appeared before Nathan, he went deadly silent.

James who had done the same method as Nathan, but imagined a pretty girl at the other end of a glass window and smashed the window to get to her, also saw the words appear on the paper and he too went deathly quiet.

HELP US! SAVE US!

Nathan stared blankly at the capitol letters that were written on the paper.

The words seemed to echo through his mind every time he read them. Trance like, his eyes flickered to the Doctor who completely and utterly unfazed, as if he knew all along – and most likely did – what the words written on the paper said.

"'Help us! Save us!'" James read aloud. "What does that mean?" he asked dully.

"It means there are student in the University of Glamorgan asking, no, begging for our help." The Doctor said. "We can save them, but there is a slight…hiccup."

"A hiccup?" Nathan asked sceptically.

"What kind of hiccup?" James asked.

"The Angels have placed up a sort of Temporal Shielding around the building. The sort that takes students into another dimension that coexists with that of the real world."

"You mean like the afterlife?" James asked.

"No, it's nothing like that, but if you want to call it the afterlife then fine, call it the afterlife." The Doctor ranted to James. "I have tried to gain access but I keep getting bounced back." the Doctor walked over and picked up the mobile phone. "I have however found a way through, with this."

"The mobile," Nathan said.

The Doctor nodded. "It was thrown through the barrier and is soaked with temporal energy, the letter, not so much as it was contained in a glass bottle. I can use the phone to get us through the barrier, but it will only be for short second before the barrier snaps back up, at which point…we will be trapped on the other side of the barrier, cut off from the world."

Nathan sighed, he thought about Kelly, and how many times she had been in that University, and had possibly come across an Angel, or two, and lived to survive another day.

"However, we are given a warning," the Doctor mumbled but Nathan caught his words.

"What sort of warning?" Nathan asked him.

"This phone contains a recorded footage, the Tardis managed to extract some footage from it, do you want to have a look at it?"

James and Nathan threw each other glances. Nathan's was a weary worried look, while James's was an eager one.

"No." Nathan said.

"Yes." James answered.

The Doctor looked at Nathan for a definite answer. Nathan sighed and reconsidered. "Okay, play it."

The Doctor gave a nod of his head, pushed a button on the console and brought one of the two screens towards the two young adults. The video played.

A face of a boy appeared on the screen, panting. Fear engulfed his eyes and he spoke with quickness, almost as if his last moments depended on this recording.

"If anyone is watching this, we need your help…" the screen flickered before it retained its normal image.

"The recording is damaged slightly, but it should hold." The Doctor said turning some dials here and there to keep the video playing longer.

"…we are trapped inside the University of Glamorgan…a group of us, do you understand…there is a group of us…we can't…we need help…there are these things we can't…"

"The recording is breaking up, I am trying to compensate." The Doctor said moving around the console trying to keep the recording playing longer.

"…we don't know what they are…if…see…we…save us…sav-"

The recording cut off.

"That's it," the Doctor pointed out.

"That boy threw the mobile at me," Nathan said breathing heavily. "I was nearby, I…could have saved him…them, I ignored them completely." Nathan said feeling guilt rising up inside him.

"No, the Angels did that," the Doctor said. "You weren't to know what was going on in that University. The Angels, placed a perception filter around the phone and the paper, when you picked them up the first time around, you did what you thought was natural. It is not your fault."

Nevertheless, the words of comfort from the Doctor did nothing for Nathan.

"I have one question." James asked. "If the Angels place people back in time, why didn't that Angel that Nathan crashed into, place him back in time?"

"I don't know," the Doctor said. "Though, they are adamant to keep away from him."

"Away from me?" Nathan frowned, confused.

"Remember back at the house, the Angel seemed to want to go for James, and only James."

Nathan thought back to the moment when an Angel – which Nathan drew – came to life and seemed to have a fetish for James.

"The Angels are doing this, I can stop them, but, I will need your help."

Nathan and James stared at each other. Nathan nodded at James seeing the glint of 'want' in his hazel eyes. "What do we do?" James asked.

University of the Angels

Whooshing and whirring, the Tardis materialized on the pavement just opposite the University.

Inside the gigantic metallic console room, the Doctor flipped and turned dials. "Just need to do a scan of the area, check for any hostility and that, I don't normally do this, check for hostilities, I normally just go blundering about, but with the Angels around I am not taking any chances."

"You can do that in here, check for hostile Aliens and that?" James asked curiously.

"It's a spaceship, it can do anything," The Doctor told James firmly. "Though, sometimes, if I am honest, old sexy here has the tendency to overlook things."

A grinding sound echoed through the control room.

Nathan frowned as he asked the Doctor. "Is this ship alive?"

The Doctor looked at him stupidly. "Of course it's alive, what use would a spaceship be if it weren't alive. This is a Type 40 Tardis, the best of its kind, in fact the only one of its kind. And sometimes it has a mind of its own."

Another gurgling sound rumbled across the floor and underneath their feet.

"I think your spaceship is having a strop, Doctor." Nathan told him.

"Yeah, she has a lot of those." The Doctor responded. He returned to look back at the monitor.

"How big exactly is this ship?" James asked.

The Doctor pondered. "Well, it's endless; you have no idea how many times I have changed the desktop theme and all the rooms change suddenly, you could wonder endlessly in old sexy here and become trapped and not even know it."

"But you must have some idea of where everything is." James wondered aloud.

"Oh, I do, it's difficult to explain, I am connected to the Tardis in a special Time Lordy and Tardisy way that allows me to know where I am going."

"This Time Lord race of yours," Nathan began saying, "how long did it take build something like this? It must have taken years."

"Tardises are not built; they are grown, like plants emerging from a seed stepping into the sun, the process in which they are grown is beautiful when observed."

"Could you grow another Tardis?" James asked.

"Ah, no," the Doctor said. "That knowledge is way beyond me, and even if I could grow a living Tardis, the result could be disastrous, only certain Time Lords knew how to grow Tardises. Repairing them, that is another matter, which I am very good at." The Doctor said proudly.

A beep came from the monitor; the Doctor looked at the screen. "It all seems normal, shall we?"

The Doctor walked toward the doors of the Tardis, opened them and stepped outside, a flicker of sunlight entered through the Tardis door. Nathan and James followed him outside.

However, once outside, a scene they could not explain baffled both Nathan and James.

They knew they had landed, but outside the University, it was daylight.

"Hold on," Nathan said looking back at the Tardis. "It's daylight, it was night just now, how did that happen?"

"Time in the Tardis passes differently to that here on Earth, a mere hour could pass on Earth while tem minutes could have passed in the Tardis. It's complicated and I don't have time to explain." The Doctor said looking around and inspecting the University whole. "The Angels are inside and my guess is that they most likely know we are here. Then again if they know I am here, they probably have learnt from their mistakes."

Whipping out his sonic screwdriver and scanning the whole area, the Doctor assessed his situation.

"What time is it now?" James asked.

The Doctor brought out his fob watch and looked at the time. "9:04am."

Nathan instantly thought of Kelly who was now in danger. "Kelly, she is probably–"

Nathan's brown eyes caught a glimpse of Kelly as she entered through the University doors to one of its buildings.

Nathan sprinted across the road ignoring the Doctor's call to stop and wait.

He skipped two steps at a time up the steps to the University, held out his arm to grab hold of the handle and…

A shock of blue electricity ran up Nathan's arm and hurtled him backwards. Luckily, James had managed to grab him before he fell back down the flight of steps.

"Dearest lord, are you alright?" James asked a disorientated Nathan.

"No, I am not!"

The Doctor came walking up the steps, scanned Nathan with his screwdriver to see if he was unharmed then scanned the door. "The Angels have placed a temporal force field around the University as I have said, but they have added a special feature to it, an Electrical Temporal Surge – ETS for short – designed to keep out unwanted guests." The Doctor whooped in joy. "How fantasticmagorial is that?"

"Not so fantasticmagorial when you get a shock it's not." Nathan said shaking off the effects of being shocked.

"We can still use the Phone to get in, but we need the Tardis to help us."

Nathan looked through the doors window and saw Kelly walking down the corridor away from him. He shouted her name.

"That's not going to work, she is now in the Angel's domain, their dimension, she can't hear you, and frankly we shouldn't be seeing her."

"How are we seeing her then?" James asked.

"You have been in the Tardis for a while now, you have soaked up background radiation called Artron Energy, in short it is what the Tardis uses as fuel, well, of sorts, anything temporal the Tardis uses it as fuel."

"And the temporal force field, she can feed off that too?" James asked.

"No, the Angel's created this temporal field, if the Tardis did feed off this temporal field created by the Angels, it would probably kill her."

"Never mind that, Kelly is in danger here."

Nathan said as he ran back down the steps towards the Tardis.

"Nathan, slow down!" James yelled as he too ran after him.

The Doctor followed them, but he stopped as he spotted a red fiesta hurtling towards Nathan as he ran across the road.

"NATHAN, WATCH OUT!" the Doctor yelled at the top of his voice.

Nathan stopped suddenly, he span into the direction of the oncoming car, he could see the driver, who seemed completely oblivious to Nathan being in the road, as if he was a ghost of some sort. Only when the driver neared Nathan did he become alert. A pale expression appeared on the driver's face, a shock or mere horror filled his eyes.

Paralyzed with fear, Nathan waited for the pain to hit him.
