Rabk
A New Allie
Part 16
Rabk looked around frantically for a way out, but there was no exit, for the police mob was in the way of them and the door. "Now" said one of the policemen, "Just come quietly, or we'll have to do this the hard way." The four of them put their hands in the air. As some of the policemen started moving forward to handcuff them, a large blue wave rippled through the air, and all of the policemen fell over, revealing a man with spiked brown hair and a brown trench coat peeking through the door. "Ah!" he said, happily. "Sorry about that. These men were tracking me, but somehow got the scent wrong. Anyway, the if the picked up my scent, the master would have programed them to re-lock their tracers onto me." "But you killed them!" Burt exclaimed in disapproval with a small hint of relief. "Nah!" said the man, walking up to one of the policemen. He picked up one of the limp bodies and ripped its face off to reveal a metal face underneath. "See?" said the man, "Simply androids. No harm done." "What in the world was that blue light, and why didn't it effect us?" asked Rabk. The odd man pulled out a small, bomb-like device from his pocket. "Electromagnetic pulser. Stops anything robotic dead in its tracks." As they spoke, a few creatures floated up to the level of the rooftop. They looked like giant salt-and-pepper shakers with a camera, a whisk, and a plunger sticking out of them.. One of them started speaking in a electronic and metallic voice. "Identified as the Doctor, enemy of the Daleks! Exterminate! Exterminate!" "Oh!" yelled the man, who was apparently the Doctor, "Gotta go!" As he ran off, he turned around and said, "Hey, you lot! Do yourselves a favor and get over here!" Wanting to get away from the evil salt shakers, the four of them ran after the Doctor without question. As they turned a bend, they saw the doctor run into a small blue box big enough to hold only two or three people. "We ain't gonna all fit in there!" yelled the thief who had given Burt the diamond, but they kept running, and one by one they all made it in. When the thief had closed the door, he turned around to find a great expanse of space within the box. "Well, that's new," said Beowulf, in an amused way. The Doctor looked at them. "Oh! Yeah, its bigger on the inside then the outside. Do you like it?" he asked, but then he kept on talking, "Where do you want to go?" "Is there any chance that you could bring us to the large mountain in the center of the mountain range?" The Doctor looked at him. "What, the wise man's mountain?" Rabk nodded. "I can't" said the Doctor, "with Daleks in the city, it is no longer safe, so I will have to stay here, but I will bring you to the road leading out of the city to the mountain. Rabk sighed and slowly agreed. "Hey, Rabk!" said Beowulf, "Come over here." Rabk went over. "Rabk, this kid wants to come with us to get you back. "Sure, I don't care," said Rabk dully. "What's your name?" The kid tipped his hat. "Dodgers. The Artful Dodgers."
