An Alien Werewolf in London (audio story): Difference between revisions

Ace awakens in the presence of Rohesia and Raymond arrives. Ace has a sense of deja-vu and remembers that they are vampires. Realizing their weakness, she pulls open a curtain to try and disintegrate them but ends up getting burned herself, having seemingly been transformed into a vampire. The Doctor decides they will go to [[107 Baker Street]] to make a plan and says that he'll call the Sin Eater "Arthur" and decides that they need to get the edge on Rufus so they will visit some of the Doctor's friends lying in "low places" to get some information on Rufus. He surmises that they will have to wait out the tracker's influence in their blood and that Ace likely has it too, so he will attempt to figure out how to identify the tracer, that way they can find the real Mags, since the last time they saw her she was in her Vulpanan form and could be a danger to all those around. Rohesia and Raymond continue to interrogate Ace but warn her that letting the Sin Eater free was a mistake. They explain that the Sin Eater fed off their mutations which is why they always looked young and human and seemed to have such longevity as it stopped them from reverting back to their natural form, bearing fangs and having glowing eyes. They had done this to blend in to human society and over time managed to work and amass their large fortune. They swore never to hunt humans and changed their diet to acceptable animal substitutes. Ace reveals that they were misinformed by Rufus, a name which shocks Rohesia and Raymond. The two reveal that Rufus disagreed over the use of the Sin Eater believing that they should stay in their natural vampiric form. They banished him to Australia, a place constantly filled with sunlight, leaving him for 200 years hoping that he would learn from his mistake. Ace points out that if it were her, however, she'd instead be plotting revenge. Rufus explains to his henchman that he doesn't care for Ace but they'll go after and capture her to use as leverage against the Doctor and prepare to move out.

=== Part 3 ===

Mags and Janet bond while watching the television program "Verona Springs" when suddenly the Doctor appears on the television screen but only Mags can see him. Janet thinks she's gone crazy and goes to fetch Dr. Vinewood. The Doctor uses Eater Mags/Arthur, who is connected to Mags through a psychic link, to contact her. He explains to an amnesic Mags that she isn't human, and Mags realizes she's a werewolf. The psychic connection cuts before the Doctor has a chance, and wonders why the connection cut. Rufus, meanwhile, is informed about the interruption in broadcast and they find the disruption is caused by the Doctor, having captured a snippet of his broadcast to Mags. They manage to catch the first part of the address and manage to narrow it down to Baker Street. Meanwhile, Janet comes to check on Mags and finds Mags has set up the room so that she could sneak up and knock her out. She tells Mags off for this and explains that Dr. Vinewood is keeping her here to study her in pursuit of fame, thinking he's discovered a new disease which they'll name after him. She tells Mags she's going to help her escape and they hatch a plan. Rufus reveals to "head office" that they've narrowed down the location of the Doctor and head office claims it is of utmost importance they reclaim the Sin Eater. They are interrupted by one of Rufus' underlings, who explains the Doctor has been sited in a park and they immediately set out to capture and interrogate him.
