a chance meeting.

he walked up to the lead alien "They worked for me...Well still do..." he held out his hand "You have something for me dont you?"
The leader looked at him slightly shocked to dsee him and pulled out a black case and handed it to him and motioned to the girl

Joanna aimed her gun at the lead alian "No way are the getting there hands on me" she said firing but she missed as her hands shook

The Doctor tried to do two things at once and failed dismally.

he reached for joanna's gun and tried to grab the black suitcase, Abandoning the suitcase rescue and going for the gun.

"NO KILLING!!!"

he laughed "Now doctor..." he pulled from the black case an arcaic looking alien pistol with a blade uneder its handle "This is were I prove to you that I am better then you" standing with his back to the aliens he held the pistol aimed for the doctor and winked

Joanna felt two slimy arms wrap around her shoulders and pull her back , the gun she held flying out of her hand but the knock out slime didn't work on her and the alien behind her held her tight as she squirmed"you two faced lying... " she would have said more but an arm covered her mouth

"Excuse me? release her and put her next to him..." he winked at the doctor and her

"Thought you didn't want anything..." he said, looking tward joanna, sending a telepathic link to her.

Drop, duck and roll! his hand went into his pocket and pulled out a small circular object.
he looked at the master, thinking hard at what he meant by winking.

Then it clicked.

He laughed "What can you always relie apon doctor?" the aliens laughed behind him "A liar lies... A murder kills...and a backstabber...Is always reliavble" he laughed and walked forward and turnedthe aliens looked in shockj as he shot them with the splinter like munitions. each one taking three to the chest
He laughed

"no, she is my prize" came a slimy sounding voice that sent a shiver through Joanna as she struggled harder, Joanna looked at the master then glanced at the floor where her gun lay, as she was held she felt the slim burn her skin "She will fetch a grand price in the open market, a young time travelling officer , untouched , what a grand prize" leaning forward his long slimy tongue ran up her neck making Joanna squirm.

The Doctor shouted as each of the creatures dropped to the floor, stopping his with his arm, the Doctor pressed a button on the small circular object and shouted.

"CLOSE YOUR EYES JOANNA!"

"Leave her alone" he said turning to the last alien not caring for the doctors warning

Joanna closed her eyes as she felt the cold slimy tongue against her skin "Aha I see she is some thing to you , master" he said his voice holding a slight laughter to it. Joanna looked at both men her skin now red from the slime.

The small bomb like object suddenly let off a bright flash and the slime creatures instantly froze.

"Stunning, isn't it?" he grinned.

he pointed the gun at the alien "Stop hurting her"

With a laugh the alien started to back away from both of them but Joanna had other ideas she took a deep breath and bit the alien on the slimy arm it fell away and he let her go falling to the ground she coughed bringing up the slim that had found its way into her throat " I never want to do that again " she said quickly standing and moving away from the alien her skin now red and blistered.

he shot him a few times "Alright...that should be enough"

The Doctor helped her up, being carefull of her burns, and looked her over.

"If we get her to the TARDIS now, i can stop the blisters getting worse, and get rid of them now." he looked at the Master.

"Less pain from her, means less of an earache for you and me."

"Alright hurry up..." he kicked the main aliens slimy foot

Joanna winced as the doctor pulled her away resisting the urge to swing at him again , glancing at the master she nodded her eyes showing just how much she was in pain but her stubborn side came out .

" No ,Im fine" she said standing

The Doctor looked at her and slapped himself on the forehead.

"How many times?" he looked at the master and sighed. "You ask her." he grinned.

"She fancies you."

"I dont blame her" he laughed "Comon doctor help her...Let him joanna... " he held the pistol at his side

Joanna sighed as she nodded again " ok, but one wrong move and it best of five" she said showing her fist to the doctor but she gave a groan

The Doctor slipped her arm over his head and moved his head for the master to do the same on the other.

"She's only outside." he said then looked at the master again.

"Please don't say you moved her when i left. Cos now would be a realy bad time to say you did."

"No I didnt... Oh by the way were gonna have to journey back a couple of years to tell these ghuys to deleiver me this gun as well"

Joanna rested on both men's shoulders her body now feeling as if it was on fire as with every move hurt her "can we please preferably get moving before i pass out " she said wincing again as the doctors rough coat rubbed against her skin.
