Hellbound was the third and final story in the audio anthology Planet Doom, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Robert Valentine and featured Eric Roberts as the Master, Chase Masterson as Vienna Salvatori, Teri Ann Bobb-Baxter as Passion and Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
With the countdown ticking, the Master and Vienna are desperate to escape, but if Axos gets loose, the entire galaxy is doomed. Vienna needs a miracle, and perhaps she's found one. But probably not the miracle she was expecting.
Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
Vienna and Passion fall as the rope across the chasm snaps and Passion pulls her parachute to save them. By a campfire, Passion tells Vienna that they have been apart for almost three years and that she loves her, a feeling that Vienna reciprocates, and gives her an auto-splint to allow her to put weight on her broken leg. They then make for higher ground in the hopes of making contact with the Cerberus and collect the reactor from beside Chaoxiang's corpse, soon finding the brain of Axos. The brain absorbs Phillips as Passion watches, content with the fact that the man who took Vienna away from her is being punished.
Axos releases the Master due to the danger of his Voltaic smart bracelet and, using Vienna's appearance, negotiates with him. It shows him how the Time Lords evicted Axos from its feeding grounds and trapped it in this planet, although a scion managed to escape and went on to encounter the Master. Axos feels pain as Vienna attacks its brain and decides to absorb the Master when Vienna and Passion are trapped as there is no longer a risk of his bracelet exploding due to being out of Vienna's vicinity, but an alarm sounds and it releases him to assist. However, the Master shoots it.
Having escaped the trap by pressing a random button which triggered the alarm, Vienna and Passion continue to head upwards and order the Cerberus computer to prepare for takeoff when it makes contact. The Master contacts them to remind them that they cannot leave without him because of the bracelets and they go in search of him, coming across the trapped Eighth Doctor and his TARDIS whilst the Master resists Axos, who takes on the Doctor's form. Vienna and Passion save the Doctor from Axos, causing Axos to revert, and the Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver to remove Vienna's cuff. He attempts to convince Axos to return to its prison, then activates the Master's cuff to force Axos into releasing him.
The planet shakes and the Master, Vienna, Passion and the Doctor flee to the Doctor's TARDIS as the caves collapse, but Axos grabs the Master and pulls him back. Although Vienna is initially content to leave him, she saves him, only for him to hold her back as the TARDIS dematerialises. Ultimately, Axos absorbs the Master and the Doctor catches Vienna to save her from a fall, after which he takes Vienna and Passion to safety and reasons that the Master has likely returned to the Time Vortex with the collapsing planet unless he used his cuff to escape Axos and then escaped in Passion's ship. The Master sets Passion's ship to take him to a Class 1 planet and checks on his cutting of Axos, swearing that he will one day steal the Doctor's body.
