Parallel: From Another World [1] (The Parallel Series) ?

The Impossible Planet - Three

"Any way of opening it?" 

"I don't know. I can't see any sort of mechanism." She looked around near the door.

"I suppose that's the writing. It'll tell us what to do. The letters that defy translation."

"Oh it will open all right" Rita muttered under her breath.

"Toby, did you get anywhere with decoding it?" Zach questioned not realising that the man wasn't able to hear him on the floor.

"Toby, they need to know that lettering. Does it make any sort of sense?"    Rose asked the man sitting on the floor in the same position as earlier.

"Toby, they need to know that lettering. Does it make any sort of sense?" 

"I know what it says." His voice now dark, deep and evil, not looking up he replied.

"Then tell them."

"Rose" Rita stepped forward a little beside the blonde.

"When did you work that out?" Jefferson asked.

"It doesn't matter, just tell them."

"He didn't work it out, " Rita told them as Toby looked up covered in the symbols again his eyes red staring up at them. 

"These are the words of the Beast. And he has woken. He is the heart that beats in the darkness. He is the blood that will never cease. And now he will rise." He slowly stood up grinning.

"Officer, stand down." He warned. "Stand down!" Jefferson shouted pointing the gun at him.

The Doctor heard the shouting and started to panic. "What is it? What's he done? What's happening? Rose, Rita?!" He shouted, "What's going on?!"  

"Jefferson? Report. Report!" Zach screamed through the comms waiting for an answer. 

Jefferson ignored Zach concerned with Toby at the moment in time. "Officer, as Commander of Security, I order you to stand down and be confined. Immediately!"

Rose grabbed the comm and started talking fast and scared. "He's come out in those symbols all over his face. They're all over him."

"Mister Jefferson. Tell me, sir. Did your wife ever forgive you?" the Beast that took over Toby asked.

"Ignore it,tighting" Rita told Jefferson. 

"I don't know what you mean." Jefferson continued pointing the gun at Toby blocking out the brunette.

"Let me tell you a secret. She never did." 

Jefferson tightening his grip on the gun. "Officer, you stand down and be confined."

"Or what?" he laughed.

"Or under the strictures of Condition Red, I am authorised to shoot you." 

"That won't stop it!" Rita gritted her teeth. Toby's mouth opened and the symbols left him flaoting over and entering the Ood. 

"But how many can you kill? It asked, Toby's mouth opened and the symbols left him floating over and entering the Ood. 

The Ood then spoke in sync. "We are the Legion of the Beast."

"Rose? What is it, Rita what is going on!" The Doctor shouted. "Rose? I'm going back up." He turned around. 

"Report. Report!" Zach shouted from the control room helpless and trying to understand what was going on.

"It's the Ood." Rose spoke in the comm.

"Sir, we have contamination in the livestock." Danny told Zach through the wrist-comm.

"Doctor, I don't know what it is. It's like they're possessed." She told him.

"Stay with Rita!" He shouted. 

She took the comm from the blonde who was slightly shaking. "She isn't going anywhere" Rita promised him.

"They won't listen to us." Jefferson watched the Ood slowly walking over to the stairs, starting to walk them towards the group on the catwalk watching from the railing. 

The Ood continued to speak in sync. "He has woven himself in the fabric of your life since the dawn of time. Some may call him Abaddon. Some may call him Kroptor. Some may call him Satan or Lucifer." They reached the group then stopped.

"Captain, it's the Ood. They're out of control!" Danny shouted.

"Or the Bringer of Despair, the Deathless Prince, the Bringer of Night."

"Everyone get back!" Rita shouted at them, one of the globes is released from an Ood's hand flying to a guard's forehead and electrocuted him.  

"These are the words that shall set him free." 

"Back up to the door!" Jefferson ordered them backing up with the others, Rita took the blonde's hand who was standing beside her knowing how shaken and terrified she was right now, just like herself but it was pointless her looking just as scared, she knew they made it out alive, Rose didn't.

"I shall become manifest." 

"Move quickly!" Jefferson shouted at them eyes locked on the Ood.

"I shall walk in might." The Ood continued.

Jefferson saw the door near them then pointed. "To the door! Get it open!"

"My Legions shall swarm across the worlds."

"We're moving! The whole thing's moving. The planet's moving." Rita and Rose heard Zach shouting through Danny's wrist-comm.  

"I am the sin and the temptation and the desire. I am the pain and the loss"

"Get that door open!" They were now all backed up against the wall trying everything they could to open the door.

"The gravity field. It's going! We're losing orbit! We're going to fall into the black hole!" Zach screamed.

"I have been imprisoned for eternity. But no more." The Ood were now close to the group still talking in sync with each other. 

 Door sealed.

"Come on!" Rose shouted banging on the door trying to get it open.

Door sealed.  The computer repeated.
