[Team 2] The holiday
I just continued with un_sanzo's idea of Doctor Y and Tai-chan. For those who are not familiar with Dr Who, that's what the Oods look like. Only warning is the genderswich.
The window broke with a crashing sound and tiny, glittering fragments of glass flew all around the room and dropped to the floor. Tai-chan hid behind the Doctor for the second it took her to deal with the surprise, then she realized that the room wasn’t a safe place anymore.
“Doctor, wasn’t this supposed to be a safe planet? Away from the dangers and aliens and everything?” she asked wryly while both her and the lanky man moved towards the door of the room. The thing that had broken the window was slowly getting up and Tai-chan looked into its red, angry eyes before fleeing.
“You’re so silly Tai-chan. Of course there are aliens! We are in space. And I am an alien myself. You know that already,” the Doctor answered while locking the door with the orange light of his sonic screwdriver. Screw it, thought Tai-chan, we locked one in there and there are hundreds ready to chase after us in this building.
“Yes, but I meant friendly aliens. Not the type that want to kill us.” Tai-chan started running following the Doctor among the corridors, strangely furnished in a familiar way for a planet that wasn’t even in the same galaxy as the Earth.
“The Oods are friendly. Extremely friendly creatures, I must say.”
The Doctor took an abrupt turn and disappeared in a breach in the wall. Tai-chan hadn’t noticed it before because it was hidden among the decorative tapestry. Behind it there was a steep staircase, no carpet, no decorations. The Doctor started going down followed closely by Tai-chan.
“It doesn’t appear to be so to me. Where are we going?” Tai-chan asked, the heels of her boots suddenly clicking on the stone steps.
She wasn’t ready for this. She had really thought the Doctor was taking her on a holiday and this place was supposed to be a luxury resort where she could finally relax while the Oods took care of her. Weren’t they supposed to be some kind of race that was happy to serve people? And now they went around with their red eyes, electrifying people with their translation spheres. She sighed to herself. How could she even remotely think there wouldn’t be any trouble around the Doctor? Maybe the curse of the Timelords was that they always managed to be found by trouble.
“These are the back stairs. We are going to the Oods quarters. There must be something upsetting them and we need to find out what.”
“The Oods quarters?” Tai-chan sniveled. “Great. Out of the frying pan and into the fire!”
It's omoikkiri's turn. :D/
