Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2006 09:49:49 EDT From: J Subject: DOCTOR WHO, JESSE AND JEREMY 48 "Wait a minute," Jesse's head bobbed to the surface, "This water's warm..." The Doctor smiled. "Lukewarm," Jesse said. "Luke was warm, wasn't he? Nice hot body," The Doctor said. He took out the sonic screwdriver from his pocket, "No one ever searches my pockets anymore." He looked at Klein, the Nazi woman who seemed to give up hope. "Makes things so much easier...almost gives me no hope that any enemy can even come close...although this choice thing...still here..." Jeremy looked. The TimeWrym asked, "How'd?" "Oh it's on silent setting. I mean..huh, ha, ha, it's not just the Mafia that have silencers is it? I just warmed the water while I spoke..." The War Chief above, yelled, "Simply a brief respite!" He pointed the gun at Jesse's head. He pulled the trigger. Jesse shut his eyes. Jeremy did the same. Nothing. "What the hell?" Everyone said. The Doctor took out a small metal square, "Bullet melter. Comes in handy. Gosh, there Felix Kriegslieter, or should I say DOCTOR Felix Kriegslieter, you' re not hitting a target today..." "Just another brief respite! They shall die and so shall you, after you suffer, suffer like me!!!!" "A Nazi collaborator? Not like you, I should dare say. I mean you were shot and the Nazis somehow stalled your regeneration..." "Because of your interference with the War Games..." "Oh don't mention that...so long ago...trials and tribs and all that." The War Chief took out his silver headed cane from his jacket. The Doctor looked up, "Where'd you been hiding that ole thang? Was you rubbing it up and down along your..." "The laser is still active!" The War Chief pointed it at Jesse but a bullet hits him in the chest and he falls into the water. Jesse moved aside and watched as the War Chief began to drown. And bleed to death. Jesse was aghast, "I can't...I can't help him!" "Leave him be," the Doctor said, "No second, or in his case, third chances. " "Doctor!" Jeremy yelled. The shot came from a gun held by a former Nazi. "Hauptmann Julius Schafer. Glad there's one here I can call friend." "Doctor, I cannot believe it is you and that damned infernal machine of yours outside." "His gun will work," the Doctor said. "K9 finished?" "He said he was," Hauptmann said. "What is that?" Hemming said, "That's someone who's going to tear apart your companion, Doctor, Timewyrm!" The claws dug into Jeremy's shoulder but suddenly stopped. "I...I.." "Do your duty! You hate the Doctor!!! I want you to rip open his legs and chest, put that vial of cut glass into his body, seal it back up with your heat powers and I shall time how long it takes for him to die...suffering all the way!!!! Now do what I brought you here for!" "No, you're not gonna do that," the Doctor nodded. "NO, really I am!" "No, you're not." "Yes, you're right. I'm not. She is. That thing that you helped to create. The Time Wyrm will do it for me! He will agonize before he dies, Doctor! And you caused it! TimeWyrm, the glass is in that jar by your feet, scoop some out and put it in his bare flesh!" The TimeWyrm raised her claws over Jeremy again. "Emily...Peter Hutchings, Ishtar!" the Doctor said, "I know you feed off changes in history but this....was settled already. And..." The Doctor looks at her, "Mindless babies bred to be experimented on. Ishtar. Ishtar. Look at you!!! A few names and you...You're accessing your future, aren't you? Amazing! Look at her!" Hauptmann was astounded, "Her? And I am looking at her." "Lovely, she is! Look at you! You're so amazing! Transcending time with your very thoughts, Even I can't do that to your extent, that extent!" "I...I am good." The Time Wyrm let Jeremy go. The boy ran to the Doctor. "Oh Doctor!" Jeremy hugged him and put his hands around the Doctor's back and rubbed his cheeks onto the Doctor's. He also squeezed the Doctor's butt cheeks. "Uh, Jeremy, not in front of the Time Wyrm here, Not to mention all the Nazis around." Hemming moved forward, "There's still more of us than of you. You can't get all of us with that gun..." Hauptman pointed it at him, "No, just you." Hemming moved back. Jesse called, "Uh, bobbing here, hands tied up, with bloody dead Time Lord in here with me. He seems to be regenerating and this time I don't think his wounds are so bad that he..." "Stop him from that!" The Doctor yelled, "If Jesse's too close to him when he regenerates...shoot him if you have to! Shoot him again and again and again ...I'll get him out of there!!!" "Oh Doctor, please hurry!" Jeremy yelled. "Stay away from all of them!" The Doctor and Hauptman climbed the steps. They saw the blue glow from the tank. The Doctor yelled, "Shoot him!" Hauptmann kept shooting The War Chief. Jesse was crying now. He bobbed away from the bloody pool that emanated from the many times shot Time Lord. The Doctor jumped into the tank and used the water proof sonic screwdriver to free Jesse's hands and ankles from the ropes. He then picked Jesse up, bodily, laying him across his arms and carried him up a ladder. Hauptmann reloaded his gun and emptied it into the War Chief. "That should do it, Doctor?" "Yes, thanks." Down below, Jeremy found a cold lot. Stares from Nazis. "Hey, I'm blond and blue eyed..." He smiled. He moved to the Time Wyrm, whom he found the most human. "Thank you. Thank you for saving us." "You are welcome, Jeremy S..." "Jeremy, let's get out of here!" The Doctor carried Jesse. As Hauptmann came down, reloading his gun, Kurtz suddenly came to life, " NOOOOOOOOOOO!" He hit Hauptmann, kneed him, took his gun, shot him in the back and aimed at the Doctor. "What the fuck?" The Doctor turned and put Jesse down. In front of him. The bullet caught Jesse in the chest, not far from his heart. He was thrown at the Doctor, who caught him. "JESSE!!!!JES!" "NOOO!" Jeremy sprang into a run and jumped up, planted both feet onto Kurtz 's back and floored the Nazi. He jumped up and kicked back both the female Hanne, who rushed him and the enraged Lt Hemmings. The Time Wyrm held the others at bay. They all raged at her/it. "Hauptmann?" "He's dead," Jeremy snapped, "So will Jesse be!" "Master, time to go, time is going. Time will repair." K9 floated into the room. "TARDIS. Only chance. NOW!" "You'll take him?" "You take him. I'll be right behind!" The Doctor picked Jesse up and gave him to Jeremy. Jeremy held him and heaved him outside a large white brick lined door. The Doctor said goodbye and farewell in German to his enemies. "Just remember how wrong you all were. See you in hell, fuckers!" He waved and ran out, "This it, K9?" "Affirmative," K9 floated nearby. "But only a Time Lord can safely..." "I KNOW! GET TO THE TARDIS. Show Jeremy where the pot is!" The Doctor found the contraption set against the wall. K9 had made it. He started to pull a lever. "Pot, master?" "You know the one! Now go!" "Ahhh, yes, Master." In the TARDIS, Jeremy laid Jesse down against the wall, "Are you?" "No. Going fast. Goodbye, my love..." K9 came in. Jeremy turned to him, "K9, he's dying..." K9 flew out of the room into the inner TARDIS. "Oh K9..." Jeremy held Jesse up and cried. "He can't even stand to see...but where's HE, where's the Doctor?" K9 came back, a jar of ointment on his nose. He flew down to Jeremy, "Take it, young master." Jeremy took it, "It's old High Gallifrean writing, isn't it?" "Affirmative. Do not waste time. Put it on the wound." "Doctor Solon's Special Morbius Lotion. Guaranteed to contain Genuine Elixir of Life. Manufactured under License by the Sisterhood of Karn. Fuck shit, does he think that's funny?" Jeremy quickly opened it and stuck his hand in. He put the lotion on Jesse's chest. Jesse moaned, up against the wall. "Not how I want you to get me up against the wall!" "Shut up!" Jeremy snapped. He watched incredulously as the lotion literally sank into Jesse's wound. The bullet popped out. "Fuck!" they both said, startled and Jesse more than hurting. "I'm going to die!" Jesse winced. Jeremy looked at his face and the wound. Then he looked at the pot of ointment. "It should..." The wound glew blue. Then healed over and Jesse's chest was repaired. He huffed and began to sink down the wall. Straining to put the ointment on the console with one hand, Jeremy held him up, first with the other and then with both hands, once the ointment was put down. He put his head between Jesse's ample pecs. He huffed in relief as well. The Doctor came in, the doors opening again. "All well's it ends well's." He strode over to the console and began to dematerialize the TARDIS. Jeremy, angry, for a change, picked up the bloody bullet from the floor and tossed it at the Doctor, "DOES THIS BELONG TO YOU!!!?!?!" It bounced off the Doctor's leather jacket. He blinked, shut his eyes in humiliation and hurt. Then opened them. "He okay?" The Doctor blinked at Jeremy's sudden rage. "No thanks to you!" Jeremy put his arm around Jesse, "Come on, Jesse, let' s get you to bed." "Not now, I need my beauty rest," Jesse murmured. "But really other than being tired, I'm fine." Jeremy squinted at the Doctor, "All's well, it ends well? What about Hauptmann? He's dead!" "No, not really." The Doctor said. "The time bomb we set just put everything and everyone back to where they belonged I the first place." "Oh is that all?" Jeremy stopped by the door. K9 hovered near the two boys. "How bout next time we pass by the "Oh let's answer the distress call, and the Oh, where are we now Doctor, and the put your hands up bits and go right to let's drown, shoot, stab, put glass in your boyfriends bit!" "I...I'm sorry about that stuff," the Doctor said, "But he's really alright and so is Hauptmann." "You take that bullet and put it in a jar right next to the ointment there," Jeremy nodded. "Remember them both, willya?" "I know you know..." "Oh, don't tell me about this life! We know about it." "Then, you have to accept every and each time we step outside that..those doors, any exit from the TARDIS interior, we can step out to our death, our end, our doom." "There is no end." "Jeremy, you're just angry." "Yeah, I am, and I'm sorry but I'm just...just scared that this time he could have died." "I'm fine," Jesse picked his head up, "Really. And what ahh, I really want is some sleep now. And you, Jer, ease up." "I'm sorry," Jeremy said. The Doctor picked up the bullet. "I...I will do as you ask." "Please, I don't mean to hurt you," Jeremy said, "I just..." "No, it's not...not untrue. I can feel more for the deaths. Over 2000 years of this and...well, it can get pretty cold in here, in me I mean." "Doctor," Jeremy said. "Uhm, tired here," Jesse said. He carried him out, looking back at the Doctor. "Oh, K9, I must mend my ways, again. It seems..." "Distress call still emanating, master..." Jeremy carried Jesse past a door that was usually shut. Jesse called, "Oh, what's that room?" "Another wardrobe room me thinks," Jeremy let him down and against a wall of roundels. He went in. "Come in, I think you'll like this." Jesse came in and saw how large the room was, "It's huge!" "Yeah big room." "That too, I meant you." They were still pretty naked. Jeremy looked, "Yeah, hey you think we'll ever go to a place where for once we can keep our clothes on?" Jesse moved over to a rack of clothes, "I don't know but what a nice bunch of shit to get to take off." "Yeah," Jeremy said, looking down. "Aw, cheer up," Jesse said, "I'm okay. I was just playing it up. For the Doc, you know." "Liar," Jeremy said. Jesse pulled an orange pink thing and came over to him and quickly kissed his mouth, hand on the lover's chin. "I said I'm alright." He looked at Jeremy's sad face. "I don't want you to die." "Hey look at this. Who'm I?" Jesse put the orange shirt on and pulled the front over his face, "OH I KNOW YOU LIVE SUCH SHORT SUCKY LIVES AND I LIVED FOR OVER 4000 YEARS." Jeremy looked up and laughed a bit, "That...that's not funny." Jesse stuck his tongue out under the see through shirt, "I'M A TIME LORD," he said in a sucky stuck up voice, "I WALK IN ETERNITY..." Jeremy laughed. He went over to the rack and found a pair of nylon black see through pants and put the legs area between his cheeks, "This is silly." "Go on, say something he would say." "SOMEONE'S INTERFERRING WITH TIME AND TIME IS MY BUSINESS...A MOST INTERESTING YEAR, YES, ONE OF MY FAVORITES." They both laughed uncontrollably. "MY PEOPLE ARE ALL GONE BUT THEY WERE STRONG, POWERFUL..." Jesse said, mocking the Doctor, "Yeah, and they are all fucking out of their fucking minds!" "And that one, the War Chief, worse than the Monk, the Master and the Rani... and sheesh, was he ugly, with a capital U." "YOU DID IT TO YOURSELF," Jesse made fun of the Doctor, "TAMPERING WITH TIME WILL DO THAT TO YA!" He took the shirt off and put it back on a hangar and took off a red lined jacket and put that on, no shirt under. Jeremy put on a white frilly shirt, left it open and stuck on a bowtie that was multi colored. "LOOK AT ME, I WEAR STUPID OUTSTANDING PRETENTIOUS CLOTHING AND A MULTI COLORED BOW TIE...OH I'M A RENOUNCED TIME LORD." "FROM KASTDRBORE-US," Jesse joked. They bowed over with laughter. The Doctor strode up to the room from the hallway and heard them laughing. " Good." He stopped before he entered the room, thinking of what to say. "WE'RE NOT LIKE OTHER PEOPLE." Jesse laughed, "WE TRAVEL IN BETWEEN THE CRACKS IN TIME." "In between the cracks in his ass." Jeremy said and put a silly blue hat from a rack over his eyes, "WE MUST REPAIR THAT CRACK, MY DEARS." "Yes yes and oh I love it when he does this," Jesse put on an Edwardian jacket, "YES YES MY DEAR BOYS," and he holds his lapels. "EVER SEE ME DO THAT? I WAS GOOD WASN'T I? OF COURSE I AM, I'M A GENUIS. I'M A TIME LORD, A LORD OF TIME, BRINGER OF THE UNCOMING STORM, THE DEATH TO THE DALEKS, MONSTERS FEAR ME, MONSTERS HAVE NIGHTMARES ABOUT ME. Oh the big priss...he has nightmares about himself..." They both laughed. The Doctor swallowed. He never heard anyone make fun of him like this. He wasn't sure what to do about it. He wasn't sure he liked it. He wasn't sure he should say anything about it. It hurt. It also made him want to laugh at himself, for a few moments. "I HAVE ACCOUNTS ALL OVER THE WORLD. I LET THE INTEREST ACCUMULATE YOU KNOW.. " Jeremy put a 17th Century France jacket on now. "I CAN TAKE YOU TO ALLEN ROAD FOR A REST OR PUT YOU IN THE JADE PAGODA. FANCY JAPAN?" "That's good. You impersonate well." Outside, the Doctor felt tears. He swallowed. Then he moved back quietly and stamped his feet as though he were approaching for the first time. He cleared his throat. The boys put down the clothes they had tried on. They were bare ass nude again. "We, ahh, we still have a couple of distress calls...do we answer them?" "Of course...if people are in trouble..." Jeremy answered. Jesse nodded too, his acceptance of what Jeremy said. "Oh, okay," the Doctor nodded, "Are you both sure?" "Yes," they both said, as one. "Sure you want to stay?" "We're not going anywhere," Jesse nodded, "Either of us." "That's right," Jeremy repeated, "Oh, we may get a little mad or perturbed at times from time to time and space to space and tease you..." "Yes, so I've heard..." The Doctor said. "That K9 telling you stuff again? Little traitor," Jeremy laughed. "I'll...I'll go set the coordinates..." The Doctor nodded, "I would tell you to get dressed but I think you both look lovely the way you are...not dressed. " He walked out. Jeremy looked at Jesse, "Do you think he heard us?" "With that super hearing of his, probably." Jesse shrugged, "Who cares. He deserves it sometimes." "Yeah but he looked, I dunno, different just then," Jeremy said. "He'll get over it, for HE'S A TIME LORD. Stuffy git." "Oh stop that," Jeremy laughed. "He is, though, isn't he?" "Yeah," Jesse said, "C'mon let's go get dressed and see what trouble he' s landed us in this time..." Later, Jeremy dressed in a toned down Dutch boy outfit, complete with cap. Jesse had on a top with silver arms to the wrists, black all over the rest of it with FCKU written on it and he wore silver pants. They walked into the console room. The biggest scanner was open wide. The Doctor was working at the console, "Trying to get the year..." Jeremy pointed to the scanner, "What the hell is that?" To be continued...
