Samurai's Secret was a Doctor Who Adventures comic story featuring the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond.

Summary

The Doctor and Amy Pond arrive in a small boat just in time to save some villagers from drowning when their tiny 13th-century Japanese village is flooded yet again by a dragon of the sea that disappears as quickly as it arrives. The Doctor offers his help but the villagers already have help from the worst Samurai in all of Japan, Shoju. In return for protecting the village, Shoju is allowed to stay — but his efforts aren't good enough.

Taking his recovered sandal from Doctor, he accepts the Doctor's invitation to join Amy and him on a trip to the lake. Shoju explains how all he wants is a simple life. He has travelled the stars and finally found a place of honour and honesty. All he wants now is acceptance by the villagers.

The Doctor and Amy watch as Shoju is transformed into the very Dragon he is supposed to be ridding the village of. In this true form, he scared the villagers and used his technology to disguise himself, chameleon-like, as a samurai. However the effect is short-lived and the transformation back condenses the water around him from the surrounding air, causing the floods that threaten the village.

Using his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor does what he knows best — and breaks Shoju's chameleon circuit. From the safety of the shore, the villages see the Dragon vanquished and Shoju return to the village, now fully accepted.

Notes

  • The DWA comic strip adventures were aimed at a younger audience and the artwork and colours were bold and bright, reflecting the tone of the magazine.
