The different displays consist of things such as a [[Dalek]] gun, the [[Seal of Rassilon]], and a [[Voord]] helmet. They then enter a large room where the Doctor's clothes from his previous nine incarnations are found, along with some thing he used during that incarnation ([[jelly babies]], a staff, a [[recorder]], [[psychic paper]], etc.). The Doctor mentions how he'd be lost without his previous incarnations. | The different displays consist of things such as a [[Dalek]] gun, the [[Seal of Rassilon]], and a [[Voord]] helmet.

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. | 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.

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. | After the Cloister Bell rings the Doctor begins the question who or what Martha really is.

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.

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 travelled 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]]. | ||

Infuriated at his plans being so easily exposed, the being identifies itself as [[Es'Cartrss]] of the [[Tactire]], a parasitic race known as the Cranial Parasites. It tells of how his planet was one of the many the Daleks had sequestered to power up the Reality Bomb, and he managed to infiltrate the Crucible until its destruction, when Es'Cartrss entered the Doctor's TARDIS and attached itself to him in the effort that began the story. | Infuriated at his plans being so easily exposed, the being identifies itself as [[Es'Cartrss]] of the [[Tactire]], a parasitic race known as the Cranial Parasites.

The entire place was actually the TARDIS matrix. Once the Doctor realises this, he begins to realise other things-namely, the TARDIS could assume the form of anyone who had ever travelled with him. | ||

The TARDIS beins assuming other shapes, better suited to specific tasks, like [[Kamelion]], who shrugged off attacks by the Voc Robot and the Clockwork Droid to open the door with the Great Key, [[Sarah Jane Smith]], and [[Adric]], whose intellect allowed him to design a way to break the parasite's hold on the Matrix by blowing himself, the infected Matrix components, and the droids, with one of Ace's old [[Nitro 9]] cans. | The TARDIS beins assuming other shapes, better suited to specific tasks, like [[Kamelion]], who shrugged off attacks by the Voc Robot and the Clockwork Droid to open the door with the Great Key, [[Sarah Jane Smith]], and [[Adric]], whose intellect allowed him to design a way to break the parasite's hold on the Matrix by blowing himself, the infected Matrix components, and the droids, with one of Ace's old [[Nitro 9]] cans. | ||
