Earth, England, tonight…33 Venture Drive, home of the Hopely family…John and Melissa with daughter Violet. She will be ten next week. Her mum asks her to fetch the magazine with Johnny Depp on the cover. Violet asks how to spell utopia. Violet is afraid to go upstairs because of the monster. As her parents chide her about watching too much telly, she goes up the steps. The Doctor knocks on the door and barges in as it’s opened. He runs upstairs, he’s been tracking the energy signature of a rogue Extron parasite. At the top of the steps, the Doctor meets Violet and the creature…which claims it needs a clear transference field…meaning it is trying to lock onto the girl’s human energy pattern. It wants to achieve full gene transmutation. The parents come upstairs and meet it. The mother apologizes to Violet. The thing is an alien parasite that transmutates to survive, combining with intelligent living mammals…in this case Violet. It usually tries an infant. It has been trying to break through for some time in this place. This one is an escaped prisoner on the run from the galactic penal institute of Inkarsera. Originally, it is from another galaxy. The thing asks the Doctor where his biometric tag is, claiming the Doctor does not have the right to take it back. John pushes the Doctor out of the way of the thing but it grabs up Violet, vanishes, teleporting away…and the Doctor has no idea where it and Violet have gone too… | |||
