《Doctor Who : The Emerging Robots》Escape & The First Showdown
Advertisement
The glacial breeze blowing constantly froze the window. His hand was practically stuck to the side of the chamber. White specks of frost covered the Doctor as he awoke only to begin to shiver frantically. He was locked inside the same chamber the previous man who got shot only moments before was locked inside. The Sedranstak robots were locking the door the Time Lord had tried to escape out of earlier. He could feel the residual energy waving up and down his body creating heat so he could survive as he was still in the first hour of his regeneration cycle. With the particles in action, he began to move his arm off the side of the chamber in which he had been stuck to. He brought it up towards the inner left pocket of his jacket where he had placed his sonic screwdriver when he got changed.
The pocket was ripped and the screwdriver was missing, lacking that survival feeling the Doctor previously had. He had completely forgotten about the time crash set to go off in 15 minutes as the Doctor was knocked out for a fair amount of time. Luckily, it was rested on the floor but the space within the chamber made it hard to get it. It was covered in frost so a push of a button was all it took for it to heat up enough so it actually worked. The white solid covered the device quickly began to melt and drip down to where the Doctor had rest his feet. It was soon gone within no time. The good old screwdriver was good for use. The button was pressed and the device was aimed at the lock on the exterior of the chamber. The connection was very dodgy between the screwdriver and the lock, instead accidentally activating a more powerful blast of frost to hit the Doctor. He had to hurry if he wanted to live and save time. The frost was quickly building up and his legs were stiffening along with his arms. However, the connection on the sonic screwdriver began to connect to the lock and within seconds, the door unlocked and flew open. He was free but he now only has 13 minutes to save Earth from a time crash.

Sirens began to blare out from the room as one of the robots stomped inside with attack mode level 3 engaged. Their tone of voice was more stern than before. The Doctor ran behind where the unknown man hid before he was brutally killed.
"Stop. I know you are here. Step out and face your punishment." The gun was hoisted up and fired a laser at the chamber lock which caused a few sparks to fly and an explosion to go off, startling the man. He pulled out his screwdriver once again and enhance the frequency. He pointed it at the lights and pushed the button, causing the lights to implode. The room went to pitch black with the exception of a laser sight on the gun from the Sedranstak robot.
The Doctor now had to find a way to take out this bot without attracting any attention unless he wanted to meet a brutal end. He lowered the frequency of the screwdriver to the minimum so it acted purely as a light in order to get around. He pushed the button at the wrong time as the bot spotted him and fired. Luckily he missed and the Doctor turned off the screwdriver in order to avoid detection. Then, an idea sparked into his mind. He activated a strobe light mode on the device and threw it over the Sedranstak so it landed behind it, causing a distraction. Somehow it worked. With quick movements, the Doctor ran over to a power supply which could only just be seen from a distance. He flicked a switch which activated luminous lights to brighten the room. The Doctor has revealed himself and practically allowed himself to be shot. With split second thinking and a new agile body, the Doctor sprinted across the room in zig zags towards the other side, jumped on the top of the chambers and jumped onto the wall in which there was a small railing above the door. A smooth backflip landed the Doctor on the shoulders of the Sedranstak. It soon began tossing back and forth trying to get rid of the Doctor but he grabbed hold of the head for dear life. The robot was constantly throwing itself around until it took once wrong move and threw the Doctor right off it whilst ripped off his head from the circuits. The head was where most of the central processing units were installed. That was one down, one to go as far as he knew...

The Other - a (man) called Ted
A figure, large and present through time in ways most would not understand. Seemingly uncaring about all except his own principles, the one we refer to as the Other (for legitimate reasons, lest some accidentally call upon his old name), finds his way through life. Though refusing to claim the title himself, this (immortal)'s projects have begun to leave him behind, awaiting some accident to move him back into the world. - - - - - - Initially intended to be a novella, then a project to keep me sane in busy times IRL, this will be considered the roughest of drafts. Also, IRL may prevent me from regular updates after the backlog is done. Tags with a grain of salt, items may be mentioned briefly in story so far, or in chapters already written but not published. Content warnings just in case. Some perspective switching in the first several chapters. Legitimately though, in the first chapters an explanation is provided for referencing to the MC as 'the Other.'
