Miranda watched as the man who seemed to be in charge just stared at the Doctor. “Who do you think you are?” He finally replied shaking his head.
“I wouldn’t have said that if I were you.” Miranda muttered as the Doctor began a tirade of who he was and how this was completely unacceptable.

The man turned to look at the security guards behind him. “Take this lunatic out of here.” He stated waving his hands. “The boss will not be happy if the games are disrupted. And take the girl with you.”

Girl? Miranda frowned. She was well in her twenties. Where did he get to calling her girl? However, she did not vocalize her complaint as the security officers who grabbed them did not look like they would accept arguments. She winced as the guard’s grip tightened around her arm, biting into the skin. “Careful.” She told him. He ignored her and instead increased his grip.

Though she was tempted to try to fight her way out of this common sense overtook her. She was a police officer. She was trained to negotiate if necessary. Brute force was not always the best option. Especially, as they were outnumbered and the fact the Doctor did not seem like a big fan of violence. “Who is your boss?” She inquired looking toward the man they had assumed was in charge.

The man chuckled. “Don’t worry. You’ll know soon enough.” He stated. “Take them to the pit.” He ordered.

“Yes sir.”

The security guards pulled the two away and back toward the elevators. “What do you think is the pit?” Miranda whispered to the Doctor.

“Silence.” The head guard said turning and striking her. “You’ll find out soon enough.”

Wincing, Miranda clenched her jaw as her eyes watered. That had hurt. If he had curled up his hand and turned it into a fist she doubted it would have added a lot more pain. Clamping her mouth shut she glanced at the Doctor. Whatever these guys had planned, they were dead serious. She hoped he could get them out of it.

He was still a bit annoyed at Jenny. He had thought she had grown past that. The last time they had meet she had been so excited that she had been able to stop the others without killing them. Apparently, she had reverted back to his old nature. 

Looking at Clara when she mentioned what drew them here, he frowned thoughtfully. “It could be Jenny.” He declared glancing toward the blond. “The TARDIS might have picked her up and deposited us here. Though, I wonder why it didn’t do it sooner.”

“Not exactly sure how YOUR machine works.” Jenny stated, emphasizing the your as the Doctor seemed intent on the fact it was his alone and not both of theirs. “But if you remember it has only been a little while since I last saw you. Your TARDIS could have picked me up as you were in the area.”

The Doctor brightened at that thought but before he could say anything they heard a growl. Coming face to face with the large creature the Doctor blinked for a moment before turning. “RUN!” He yelled grabbing Clara’s hand.

As they dashed down the hallway, the Doctor quickly led them into a room and slammed the door before the dog could get in. Using the sonic he locked it and stepped away. “That should hold it for the moment.” He said looking around.

They were in a room with no windows or other doors. They were trapped. The door shook as the beast through itself against the door again and again. “Now you understand why I had the gun.” Jenny stated a bit annoyed. “I wasn’t shooting humans I was taking out those creatures.”

The Doctor looked over at her. “Wait, in that case why are the men here?”

Jenny smirked. “Because I’m here. I caused a bit of trouble with someone or other. I was here cleaning out this nest of Icedors when they showed up. Then you showed up and here we are.” She shrugged.

The Doctor paled. Icedors. Looking toward Clara he explained what they were. “Icedors are like giant dog like creatures except they have snake like tongues that can leave a person in agony for days before killing them. They are highly intelligent, almost sentient and take pleasure in torturing other creatures.”

He started to pace. This was not good. Not good at all. His mind quickly started working through various scenarios as he tried to come up with an idea of how to get into this mess. “If only we had some fish fingers and custard.” He stated pausing in front of the girls.

Jenny raised her eyebrows but Clara got to it first. The Doctor shook his head. “No. It won’t be useful against them but I’m a bit hungry and I haven’t had that in some time.” He grinned as if there was no danger at all. 

“Yup. He’s definitely different.” Jenny whispered to Clara. The old Doctor never acted this way.
