Origins was the story published in Titan's Doctor Who: Origins miniseries in 2022, starring the Fugitive Doctor.
Summary
After completing a mission for Division, the Fugitive Doctor is a assigned a new companion and tasked with the destruction of an interplanetary cult bent on the destruction of Gallifrey. Distrusting the organisation, the Doctor decides to take a closer look only to find a seemingly peaceful village.
Plot
The Fugitive Doctor is following some readings across metallic, spider-web covered hallways. Eventually she finds what she was looking for, a clutch of eggs. She claims their mother will be glad to see them again only to notice a giant nebula spider behind her. The Doctor starts running away from the spider, bag of eggs in arms, asking for the help of an unseen individual. Realising she has to "open the avenues of approach", she blinks and stops running. Where the spider was, now stood a Weeping Angel. The Doctor asks it to not "look at [her] like that", claiming she did all the hard work. In her TARDIS, flying through the Time Vortex, the Doctor comments that the Empress of Weavers will be glad to have her children back and asks the Angel if it knows when it sent the captor, the Empress' sister. The Angel seems to answer no and the Doctor responds saying it doesn't matter as long as the job is done. While "talking" about the Angel's former friend, the Doctor receives a call on the console phone about a new assignment. After ending the call, she starts explaining to the Angel that she has to drop it off, only to notice it feeding on the TARDIS, prompting the Doctor to reprimand the Angel and its kind for the habit.
In an unknown world with three moons, the Doctor arrives at a restaurant where she is greeted by Taslo, another Division agent. Taslo is excited for her first mission and to meet the Doctor. Then, a assistant sent by the High Council arrives and activates a perception blockade, allowing them to speak without being noticed. The Doctor asks what is it they can't discuss on Gallifrey, and the assistant responds the two agents have been tasked with stopping the destruction of Gallifrey. After being asked for more information, he explains that a cult spanning multiple species and planets is planning Gallifrey and its people's destruction because of their mere existence. The assistant hands them a device containing the location of the first cult stronghold and tasks them with its stealthy destruction, cultists included. He also mentions Division has supplied them with a weapons cache for the job an deposited it by the Doctor's TARDIS, before deactivating the perception blockade and leaving. The two agents go to the TARDIS and collect the weapons container.
