The Doctor manages to hold her for a moment in a stasis beam emanating from his sonic screwdriver, but she fires energy bolts at them. The Doctor manages to trap one of the energy bolts in the necklace and takes it outside where through the Doctor's touch the crystal is able to reverses the effect on the children but at the last minute the Koltroxa snatches the necklace (a device that offers protection her from the ravages of time) and escapes! ...
