“Gentlemen, this is all under control.” Identifying herself The Protector pulled out a piece of paper. Showing it to the police she spoke. “I am agent Golden Cat.” Looking at the paper the authorities turned to each other.
“Everything is under control. I’ve apprehended Lamora. However, she is carrying a very dangerous weapon –a bomb, series…5…6/943…8. The Protector stumbled over her words trying to make something up.
“I’ve never heard of that kind.” Said one of the officers.
“Well…it’s a very, very… explosive kind of bomb.” Said The Protector as Lamora rolled her eyes.
“That is why I need to be escorted to my…deactivation capsule…so that it can be neutralized.” Said The Protector. Rzcepous put a kind of shadow proclamation handcuff on Lamora to play along with the game.
Leading them to the TARDIS, the four of them walked in.
“Alrighty then! This should only take a minute.” Said The Protector.
As the New Earth Police waited the TARDIS began to disappear before their eyes.
“Did you just make all of that up?” laughed Nick. Lamora let out a big laugh as The Protector worked at the controls. “You never change.” Said Lamora.
Reappearing back onboard the Shadow Proclamation vestal, it had been only seconds since the three of them left the craft. However the deadly plants onboard were now growing more than ever. The ship was dark, and cold, the only way to see anything was to stay close to The Protector and her sonic beam of light.
“We have a lot of weeds to kill so lets get to work.” Said The Protector.
Activating the anti-chloroplastic beam, Lamora shot any plant life she saw.
“If we really want to get ride of these we need to start at the roots.” Said Lamora.
“And where is that?” Asked Nick.
“You tell me, where did it start growing?” Asked Lamora.
“Manifold nine.” Said The Protector.
Just then, Jonah emerged from out of the shadows. His skin was a greenish color, and his eyes glowed orange with the spore that grew inside of him.
“Nick! Help me” He said creeping forward.
“Don’t go near him, he’s infected.” Said The Protector calmly.
“Protector, we meet for the last time.” Said the voice that came out of Jonah.
That’s not Jonah speaking, it’s the spore. It must have some kind of collective consciousness.
“I’m coming for you, you weed! And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.” Said Lamora
“You will never destroy me! I will live on forever.” Said Jonah.
“Not while I’m around.” Spoke Lamora.
Blasting Jonah in the chest, he fell to the ground. As his skin began to clear up, the spore that was inside him died leaving him temporarily unconscious.
“You shot him!” Yelled Nick.
“He’s fine, in fact he’s cured.” Said The Protector.
“Come on!” Said Lamora. “Let’s uproot this abomination.” Marching to Manifold nine, Lamora felt her anger and rage take over. She was the reason that so many lives were at stake. It was her fault, and she could not escape that fact. But she could try to destroy the evidence. Leading her to the doors Nick pointed, “this is it.” Typing in the security code, Nick scratched his head.
“The code is not working.” Turning to The Protector, she used her sonic blaster.
As the doors opened, they could see a giant yellow bulb growing on top of the power generator. At the controls, Tarous and a few crewmembers stood by the large flower’s side.
“Just think, this thing started out as a microscopic seed.” Said The Protector.
The bulb moved, as it was full of liquid. The mind controlled crewmembers turned to look at them, serving as an extension of the mutant plant. Slowly coming for them, the infected crew reached to spread the spore.
“Tomorrow I will spread to the ends of the galaxy. I will be king of the universe.” Said the crew, serving as the plant’s mouth.
“Today you die!” Yelled Lamora.
“Today you will be my queen!” Said the mutant as he launched large vines at her. Tangled in the green foliage Lamora dropped the anti-chloroplastic beam as she struggled to free herself. Out of instinct -holding his blaster- Nick lunged at the mutant. Growing sharp thorny vines, the plant lashed out at Nick. Taking out her sonic blaster, The Protector shot a blast that hit through the thorny vines and shot a control panel. A small energy leak began to commence as the mutant was stunned. Reaching for the anti-chloroplastic beam, Nick and Rzcepous were blown back by a small energy wave. Reacting to the energy leak, the mutant plant began to grow larger as it fed on the power generator. Lamora became engulfed in a green slimy cocoon.
“You fool! If the power core explodes we will die!” Yelled Rzcepous.
Grabbing the anti-chloroplastic beam, The Protector shouted to the plant.
“When something gets in the way of me and a promise…it needs to die.”
Firing at the monster, The Protector sneered at the mutant as it disintegrated. Running over to Lamora, The Protector held her as she lay in a state of unconsciousness.
“Rzcepous! Take her to the medical room please. I need to fix this power core or we’re cooked. Although the plants are dead, we’re not out of the woods yet.”
Using her sonic blaster, she fixed the power core in a matter of seconds.
“That should hold us for a while.” Said The Protector.
The ship was in disrepair, but the worst of it was all over. Not one of the crewmembers died, and the ship was saved.
Back on New Earth, The Protector took Lamora back home.
“Thank you for everything Lamora.”
“It was good to see you again Protector, will you come back to visit?” Asked Lamora.
“I promised Nick we would.” Said The Protector.
“I want you to have something. Said The Protector. Taking off a necklace, she put it on Lamora. “Since your wanted now you’ll need this to help you hide.” The Protector pushed a button on the gemstone necklace and immediately Lamora disappeared. “This is a perception generator. It makes you invisible.”
Making herself visible Lamora hugged The Protector. “I don’t want you to leave, you’re my only friend. Can I come with you?” Asked Lamora.
“It’s to dangerous for you to come, there’s a dark force after me now more than ever. Besides, this is your home. To have a place you can call home is a great thing. I’ll be back, but in the meantime, try to make the best of things.”
Going into her TARDIS The Protector traveled back onboard the vestal that headed back to the Shadow Proclamation. She needed to speak to the Judoon counsel in order to set things straight.
The Ship was still as both Jonah and nick slept in separate quarters onboard the space vestal. Waking up in the middle of the night they each heard a whisper -an interesting sound like telepathy. Jonah looked around but the only thing he saw was a small light. He realized that the small light was coming from the watch that he wore around his neck.
The next day, the ship’s pilot announced their arrival to The Shadow Proclamation area.
Once they reached the council to have them decide what to do with The Protector. As they were talking, to decide what to do, The Protector said a special code to the council and they immediately let her go! The code she told them only spoke of who she was and where she was from. She also added that Jonah and Nick were Time Lords. The code she spoke was top secret, so secret only the highest of rank could understand.
Hearing whispers, Jonah asked Nick, “Did you say something?”
“No,” Nick replied.
Then a few minutes later Nick asked the same thing. But what they did not know was that what they heard was a telepathic link from their unknown -mysterious fob watches that hang from their necks, the same ones that whispered untold secrets that mysterious night.
“What did you do?” Asked Nick interrupting his own thoughts.
The Protector answered with a strange silence and look.
“I have to go get my TARDIS.” Said The Protector.
As The Protector walked down the hall -two lasers came from around the corner and hit The Protector in the chest.
“Guys, stand back!” The Protector said putting her hand to her heart.
“What happened?” Asked Jonah.
“Can we get some medical assistance over here, please?” Yelled Nick.
They ran around the corner to find help. The hallways were empty, when they looked back she was gone! As fast as they could they both bolted to see if she was in her TARDIS.
They saw some weird yellow dust that was somewhat glowing come out from under the door. When they opened the door they found her regenerating before their very eyes! This weird dust was coming out of her hands and face! And when it stopped she looked and sounded completely different!
“You have to show me how to do that!” Nick said in astonishment.
“It’s a Time Lord trick,” The new face of the Protector said. Eden
Suddenly, the TARDIS doors closed. Making a tremendous sound. It shook as it sent the three passengers on a ride through the time vortex.
“What are you doing?” Yelled Nick at the mysterious Protector.
“I’m not doing anything.” She replied.
“You mean, you don’t know what you’re doing.” Said Jonah.
“I’ll have you know that I have a triple first in the academy on Gallifrey.” She said angrily.
The TARDIS hurdled through space and time, knowing exactly where it was going. Finally it stopped. Nick got up right away and turned to the Protector.
“Where are we?”
“The planet Eden,” she replied as she checked the status screen.
“The TARDIS must have taken us here for a reason.”
“Let’s go check it out! I love the sound of it. Eden! I just love it.” Said Jonah.
“No, not yet.” She said. “I need to check the readings before we can go out.” But, as she was speaking Nick was already exploring outside the TARDIS.
“Does anyone ever listen to me?” She exclaimed as she threw up her hands.
Outside the TARDIS was a beautiful and vast jungle that twisted across the whole planet. It was noisy and full or life. Insects crawled on every surface as they ate the greenery around them. Large flowers gave off the most wonderful smell.
Stepping out of the TARDIS, the Protector exclaimed, “Eden, we haven’t been here in a while, and it’s still exactly the same.” Her smile became a faint frown.
Looking at Jonah she spoke quietly in wonder.
“You don’t remember this at all do you? You were here before, many times with me.” Silence filled the void as he stared blankly back at her. She turned away and continued walking.
Strange red birds flew overhead, and landed
