A month after Amy woke, Demons Run was attacked by an army of [[Silurian]]s and [[Judoon]] led by [[Sontaran]] Commander [[Strax]]. A squad of [[spitfire]]s destroyed Demons Run's communications array so the alliance could not call for help. The Doctor, [[Vastra|Madame Vastra]], and [[Dorium Maldovar]] raided the computer records left behind, discovering surprising information about Melody. The forces under [[Manton|Colonel Manton]] surrendered, but this was a trap for the Doctor; after most of his forces had withdrawn, the holding forces were slaughtered by the Headless Monks. Only the Doctor and a few friends survived and Melody Pond had been spirited away by Madame Kovarian. [[River Song]] appears after the battle to reveal her identity to the Doctor who left the base before telling River to return Vastra, [[Jenny (A Good Man Goes to War)|Jenny]], Amy and Rory to their own time. It is unknown if the clerics returned to the base or if it was left abandoned. | ||
