As far as Amy knew, she was continuing her adventures with the Doctor and Rory. In reality, Amy was taken to Demons Run in the [[52nd century]], where her pregnancy came to full term. The Doctor realised what had happened and terminated her Ganger. Amy woke up on Demons Run, just before giving birth to her daughter, [[River Song|Melody Pond]].

The Doctor assembled an [[Alliance|army of allies]] from many races and time periods, while Rory attacked the [[Twelfth Cyber Legion]] to intimidate Amy's captors. 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forces under [[Manton|Colonel Manton]] surrendered, but this was a trap for the Doctor; after most of his forces had withdrawn, the holding forces were slaughtered by the Headless Monks.

Two days after the battle, Madame Vastra | Two days after the battle, Madame Vastra and Jenny returned to Demons Run to recover the seemingly deceased Strax. They woke him up and revealed that he had not died since they had used alien technology to heal his wounds. Jenny explained that he had never truly passed away thanks to the resurrection technology and he had been in a state of unconsciousness for two days while the resurrection device healed him. Though Strax was angry about not having died, Vastra and Jenny announced that the station was being evacuated, and offered to take Strax with them back to [[Victorian]] [[London]]. Strax was hesitant and at first rudely refused but then changed his mind and agreed to accompany them. ([[WC]]: ''[[The Battle of Demon's Run: Two Days Later]]'') | ||
