THE DOCTOR'S TRIPLE TROUBLE

Chapter Twenty Four

Rose felt sick to her stomach as she walked behind her lover and her friends. The Alternate Doctor was still controlling her body and she had the sword up and ready to strike while they walked back to the Alternate Doctor's TARDIS. She looked at the Doctor who was calmly walking a few feet in front of her and the sick feeling intensified when she thought of all the torture his double would probably put him through. She hated herself for not trying to escape faster and instead playing along with her demented captor. The Doctor was going to suffer along with her friends and it would be her fault. She wished the Doctor would kill her so they could escape, even though she knew he'd let himself die before that happened. Since she couldn't move anything but her head all she could do at the moment was hope for the best and hope they would find some way of escaping.

While they walked, the orb glided along a few feet behind Rose's head, the camera lens aimed directly at his captives.

"You know, I'm so brilliant sometimes, it almost astounds me," the Alternate Doctor said to his prisoners. "I bet you never would have guessed in a million years that I'd turn your pumpkin poo into a puppet, eh, Doctor?"

"If I were you, I'd let all of them go and deal with me alone," the Doctor said, looking over his shoulder at the camera.

"But where would be the drama then? After all, it intensifies your misery if I'm doing something to the people you love, right? It's boring torturing a willing victim. And one thing I hate is being bored."

"What are you going to do to them?" Rose said, looking over her shoulder.

"The question is, my concubine, what won't I do to them?" he replied to her. "After all, I have almost limitless possibilities. But actually, I do have something in mind for your snookums there. But you'll just have to wait to find out what it is. In the meantime, march, soldier! Quit dragging your feet…or should I say, my feet? What do I pay you for? I certainly don't pay you to slack off! Oh wait, I'm in control of your feet so I'm the one slacking off. Sorry, my bad."

Rose felt herself speeding up until she was directly behind the Doctor. She lowered the sword slightly and then to her horror, her hand suddenly smacked the back of the Doctor's head.

"I'm sorry," Rose said as the Doctor sighed angrily and rubbed the back of his head.

"Don't apologize, Rose," the Doctor said, looking back at her. "You're not doing it."

He grunted when Rose's hand slapped his head again.

"Leave him alone!" Rose said to the camera.

She repeated her command when her hand raised the sword and began poking him in the ass with it.

"Get along, little doggie!" the Alternate Doctor crowed as Rose's body continue to poke the Doctor in the ass with the sword. "Oh, what I wouldn't give for a cattle prod right now. It would be so hilarious seeing the Doctor yelping and jumping along as he gets shocked in the bum repeatedly. That's one of the things I'll have to have Rose do when you lot get back here. It'll amuse me to see you get the shit shocked outta ya by your true love."

To Rose's relief, the sword lowered but then her hand slapped the Doctor's head again.

"Come on, Oncoming Storm, get angry and stop your tormentor!" the Alternate Doctor said before Rose's body slapped his head again. "Do something to stop her! I dare ya!"

Mara started to turn back towards the camera but the Doctor grabbed her arm.

"No, don't do anything," he said to her.

He grunted when Rose's body slapped his head again.

"Stop it!" Rose yelled at the camera. "Leave him alone!"

"And stop the fun? Hey! Maybe we can go around the front and carve that pretty face of his up like a pumpkin!"

To her horror, Rose suddenly ran around them while the camera followed.

"No, don't make me do this," Rose said when the Doctor stopped and faced her without any fear.

Mara and Donna stopped and watched helplessly from either side. The Doctor folded his arms over his chest and waited. Then Rose's hand lifted her mask, jammed her finger into her mouth so she got it wet and put it in the Doctor's left ear.

"Wet willy!" the Alternate Doctor crowed before laughing hysterically.

"Yeah, that was really hilarious," the Doctor said, rolling his eyes. "I believe I told you once you should really act your age and you still haven't learned how to do that."

The Doctor's eyes widened when Rose's arms grabbed the Doctor and her body began to hump his leg for a few seconds. By now, Donna and Mara were exasperated.

"The Doctor's right, can you be any more immature?" Donna said to the camera when Rose stopped and stood up.

The orb flew over to Donna and hovered in front of her face while Donna gave him a challenging look. Then slowly, the orb dropped down to her breasts.

"Quit that!" Donna said as the Alternate Doctor giggled.

Suddenly, Rose's body walked over to a nearby rock and they watched in horror as her fist drew back and froze, poised to hit the rock as hard as possible.

"Let's break every knuckle in Blondie's hand, shall we?" the Alternate Doctor said as the camera flew around to the Doctor's face.

"Stop it! Leave her alone!" the Doctor growled.

"Funny, she was asking me to leave you alone and you're asking me to leave her alone. Ahh, young lovers who would sacrifice everything for each other. How sweet."

Rose breathed a sigh of relief when she came away from the rock without hitting it. Instead, she walked over to the Doctor, laid the sword on the ground and began to run her fingers through his hair.

"Oh, Doctor," the Alternate Doctor said as he imitated Rose's voice. "I love the feel of your hair as I run it through my fingers. Make sweet love to me!"

Rose gasped when she suddenly punched the Doctor hard in the face.

"What? You won't make love to me! How dare you! I want a divorce!" the Alternate Doctor screeched as the Doctor held his nose and glared at the camera. The orb flew between them.

"By the way, you're not married, are you?" the Alternate Doctor said to his double. "Intriguing. Especially since you claim to love the woman behind me so very much. Why not make her your wife then?"

The Doctor didn't say anything to that.

"What's wrong, Bashful Bachelor?" the Alternate Doctor said to him. "Man enough to be her boyfriend but not brave enough to take the plunge? Are you one of those why buy the cow when you can have the milk for free blokes?"

"Can we just get on with this?" Donna finally said. "I'm sick of standing here listening to you run your gob."

"Then again, after meeting women like ginger over there, I can understand why some men stay single," the Alternate Doctor said while he used Rose to point to Donna. "But the Mouth and Jugs is right, sally forth and tally ho and all that. Rose! Time to play follow the leader."

Rose picked up the sword, turned and began to walk off.

"Follow the leader everyone!" the Alternate Doctor said as the orb flew off. "I'm not stopping you from running away but then again, you wouldn't, would you? Not while Rose is in my thrall. So…Come along, you lot! We're nearly there now!"

The Doctor glanced at Mara and Donna and they began to follow behind Rose. While they did that, they could hear the Alternate Doctor singing loudly as the orb followed behind Rose.

"Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's home to TARDIS we go. The Doctor's chicken shit, he won't commit to the ho, hi-ho hi-ho hi-ho, hi-ho, It's home to TARDIS we go. The Doctor's afraid he won't get laid to the ho if he marries, marries her, whoa-ho-ho-ho. Everybody! Sing with me! Hi-ho, hi-ho…"

The Alternate Doctor stopped singing when Sabessa suddenly appeared on top of one of the boulders. She jumped down in front of Rose and smirked as she walked towards her.

"You and I have unfinished business, ape," Sabessa said as she unsheathed her claws.
