The Forgotten (comic story): Difference between revisions

Martha brings him his staff from his [[First Doctor|first incarnation]] and he tells her a story of (when Susan, Barbara, and Ian were travelling with him) how he saved a pharaoh's life with that staff. He then tells how and when he dropped Ian, Barbara, and Susan off. Martha asks if he thinks that Susan is dead and he replies in the affirmative, and mentions that, as far as he know, he is the last, although the Doctor mentions he left Susan on a future earth with a freedom fighter she fell in love with. The strange man chuckles and says, "If only that were true". He then reveals (whilst talking to himself) how he will force the Doctor to regenerate so that he can steal the Doctor's remaining incarnations. The Doctor collapses and tells Martha that one of his hearts has stopped; he collapses into unconsciousness.

The Doctor remembers his [[Third Doctor|third incarnation]] as Martha hands him the keys to Bessie, the old car he used to drive while he worked for UNIT. He, the Brigadier and Jo Grant are in a car being chased, by giant, spider-like robots, with humanoid dogs as drivers. Jo uses her make-up mirror to aim the laser beams at the ships, and the doctor uses his [[sonic screwdriver]] to destroy the dog-like aliens, with the help of [[Mike Yates|Captain Yates]].

Back in the museum, the Doctor finds the same restorative inside the umbrella, and begins to hear the Cloister Bell. He states the impossibility of this, as it can only be heard in the TARDIS, the Time Lord Matrix, or on Gallifrey, none of which they are at--or are they?

Martha demonstrates knowledge of the Cloister Bell she shouldn't yet have and the Doctor remembers her saying he isn't the only doctor in the TARDIS, though she's only a medical student. The Doctor wonders again what's really going on, while the mystery onlooker says they can't have the Doctor remembering his future just yet, and sends out a Clockwork Droid and a Voc Robot. The section ends in the TARDIS with the Cloister Bell tolling, the inside red, and an alien life form attaching itself to the unconscious Doctor...

After the Cloister Bell rings the Doctor begins the question who or what Martha really is. They are attacked by a [[Clockwork Droid]] and a [[Voc Robot]]. The Doctor and Martha manage to escape. Martha hands the Doctor a cravat belonging to the his [[Eighth Doctor|eighth incarnation]], and the Doctor then begins to tell Martha about that specific life.

The Doctor was alone in a prison cell on an unnamed planet, wondering whether the [[Last Great Time War]] was still being waged, when the cell door opened and the [[Prison Guard (The Forgotten)|guards]] threw a new prisoner into the cell. Sixteen days later the Doctor and his new cellmate [[Chantir]] saw a spaceship land through the cell window and the Doctor said it was time to escape. The Doctor slowed his heartbeats to almost nothing and Chantir called in the guards, allowing the Doctor and Chantir to overpower them and steal their laser weapons when leaving the cell. The Doctor opened all the other cells to allow the other prisoners to escape. They traveled to the end of the hall and blasted open the door. Inside [[the Great Key]] stood on a pillar in the centre of the room and the Doctor picked it up, telling Chantir that he planned to use it to recreate the De-Mat Gun, and possibly even modify the original to increase its lethality to remove millions from time and space at once. The Doctor and Chantir escaped from the prison by sliding down a power cable on the outside wall of the prison, Chantir left the Doctor to find his crewmates and the Doctor walked a few miles to recover his [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]].

The Doctor and [[Rose Tyler|Rose]] arrived in a [[World War I]] trench on Christmas Day and the Doctor showed the [[British]] occupants of the trench documents identifying him as [[Winifred Bambera|Brigadier Bambera]] using the psychic paper. A football landed in the trench and the [[German]]s asked the British to hand them back their football. The Doctor challenged the Germans to a football match for their ball. As the British played football with them, the Doctor refereed. After the match ended the Doctor and Rose left in the TARDIS.
