Episode
6: Terror of the Bygones
By Edward Teach
The Master summons the Doctor back to
Earth using a time and space telegraph device he found at the bottom
of a milk churn in view of a mysterious disappearance that needs
investigating. A large black hole appeared in the sky over the Memorial
and sucked the Expendable Sidekick into its oblivious void.
An air of unease descends on the Memorial and everyone starts looking
for answers.
The finger of suspicion lies with everyone and no one trusts anybody,
not least the Master and the Doctor themselves. The Master calls
for calm and Doctor Whoof? starts trying to find a new Expendable
Sidekick by ploughing through the records of the League Ark. The
Doctor wonders if he will have to go back there to find some new
help.
All the while a long forgotten and disgruntled Agent Bell paces
around the exit lounge with increasing anger. He has been abandoned
by Agent Hewlett who slipped through a crack in the space time
continuum to join the cast and crew of the Magic Roundabout for
some whacky baccie and Aciiiiiiiiiiiid.
Who was responsible for
the black hole? Who killed the Expendable Sidekick? Will he be
replaced in time for the attempt to launch into the League Two
Galaxy? One thing seems certain, the Doctor will need to find
out before a full blown rebellion leads the Memorial and its disgruntled
people down the road to self destruction.
Worse is to come for
the people of the Memorial. The Gate of Ashton is off the latch and
waiting in the wings to unleash its denizens upon the helpless populace.
There is an ominous tick tocking sound echoing around the Memorial
and it seems there is no escaping the imminent invasion...
