Sarah and Francesca go into the attic and find that Butler will not appear when they call for him. They find him inside, saying that "this is the house that Hoxx built". He attacks Francesca, but Sarah opens the skylight to let in the rain, which damages him. They return to the Doctor and the Hoxx, whose mind is now free, and the four of them go to the cellar and find that the dust has captured the sound waves of the assault. The Doctor follows the ripples to a secret door which leads to a staircase descending to a cave with a [[pentagram]] on the floor. The Doctor and Sarah soon find themselves in a side cavern where sounds come from all directions, but [[dampener]]s mean that the Hoxx cannot hear them until he catches up with them. | Sarah and Francesca go into the attic and find that Butler will not appear when they call for him.

Sarah finds an old digipad, the last entry on which says that they have to get out of there and that a digihuman called [[Tesca]] was possessed and killed workers down there. They go in search of Francesca and a message appears on the digipad, telling them to go down below if they wish to see her again. They reach the power relay station, a metal hut, and find Butler inside with Francesca tied up; Butler becomes taken over by a gestalt entity which describes themselves as | Sarah finds an old digipad, the last entry on which says that they have to get out of there and that a digihuman called [[Tesca]] was possessed and killed workers down there.

They reach the power relay station, a metal hut, and find Butler inside with Francesca tied up; Butler becomes taken over by a gestalt entity which describes themselves as the [[Benighted]], contained within the [[power core]] brought by the Hoxx. They show them a vision of the molten tides on [[JB Lease III]] where they lived before a [[scoop ship]] funnelled up the [[ocean]] and took them with them. | ||
The Doctor is able to set the Benighted free and Butler returns to his usual self. The Hoxx and Francesca decide to leave to stop the [[barbarism]] on the [[Lease Worlds]] whilst Butler remains at the house, content to read in solitude and telling Sarah that this area was once known as [[Fetchborough]]. Sarah decides to one day write a piece on the area and leaves with the Doctor, walked to [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] by the Hoxx and Francesca. | |||
