31: The Many Professors
“Bit
do you know if all them have been?” Felix asked.
“Not
sure, but certainly most.” the Doctor said.
“That
at least is good,” Felix said.
They
entered the center of the station.
“...Come
on, Ada. Open your mind. You're
going to like this. Fantastic period of history. The human race at
its most intelligent. Culture, Art, Politics. This era has got fine
food, good manners...”
A
woman then barelled past them. “Out of the way!” she said.
“Good
manners?” Felix asked.
Suddenly
they see people everywhere, some of them hawking junk food.
“Fine
Crusine?” Ross asked.
“My
watch must be wrong,” the Professor pondered. “No, it's fine.
It's weird.”
“That's
what comes of showing off. Your history's not as good as you thought
it was,” Ross said.
“My history's
perfect.”
“Well
obviously not,” Ross retorted.
“They're
all human. What about the many other species? Where are they?” Ada
asked.
“Good,
question. Actually thats a good question. Ada, you must be starving,”
the Professor said.
“No,
just a little time sick,” Ada retorted.
The
Professor found out how much a burger was and then cracked a nearby
credit outlet. It produced three cards. She gave one to each
companion. “There you go, pocket money. Don't spend it all on
sweets.”
“How does it
work?” Ada asked.
“Go
and find out. Stop nagging me.The thing is, Ada, time travel's like
visiting Paris. You can't just read the guide book, you've got to
throw yourself in. Eat the food, use the wrong verbs, get charged
double and end up kissing complete strangers. Or is that just me?
Stop asking questions, go and do it. Off you go, then.”
Ross,
Felix and Ada went off. The Professor approached two gentlemen
nearby. “his is going to sound daft, but can you tell me where I
am?”
“All staff are
reminded that the canteen ara now operates a self cleaning table
system. Thank you!”
Ross
handed something to both Ada and Felix. “Try this. It's called
Zaphic, it's like a, er, Slush Puppy,” he said.
“What
flavour?” Ada asked.

“Still, I'll try,” Elias said as he walked away.
While Elias exited the library, Parminder went back down to the lower
level. As he exited the library Elias looked around the courtyard.
The College was relatively close, but not visible, being on the other
side of the Madgewick Building, which was barely visible to the south
of the library. Besides there wasn't much cover, between the library
and the Madgewick building. But there were multiple paths around the
university. Elias looked in the other direction. The Cafeciducca was
relatively close.
Between
the library and the Cafeciducca was the University Tavern, below
which was the UNOSA offices and the studio for the radio station.

“You've found something?” Jenny asked.
“A restaurant,” Clara said, turning the paper over.
Mancini's
Family Restaurant, best Dinner in London.
“It could be a trap,” Vastra warned.
“It's worth the risk,” Clara opined.
“It certainly is. Which is why, we'll cover out front while you go
in,” Vastra said.
Clara nodded.
Clara entered the restaurant. She looked around and found Susan near
the back. She sat with her and sniffed.
“What's wrong?” Susan asked.

“You
are the Doctor,
aren’t you?”
“Yes.”
“We
have been doing some reorganisation as the collection grows...”
“And
you’ve found strange twists in the layout of the shelves?” The
Doctor knew where this was going. Sufficiently large collections of
knowledge arranged in certain ways were liable to bend space and
time.
“Yes,
Doctor.”
“Take
me to the place,” the Doctor directed.
“This
way....”
The
librarian led the Doctor to the area where the layout of the Library
had become warped.

The Street
“Lock me up, throw us out, anything but this. Please. I only took
it to save her,” the old man pleaded.
“How many minutes left?” Ashildr asked.
Rump checked the back of the man's neck. “Two, Madam Mayor.”
“This man stole medical rations. He broke a rule of the street and
he stole from all of you. And yes, I can remove the chronolock. But I
won't. Our rules keep us safe.”
“Give it to me. Please. Tell me I can have it. One word. Say it.
Say yes,” the man's wife pleaded.
“I
did this to save you, you silly old thing. You really think I could
lose you now?”

Excerpt
from: Doctor Who: Ways Clara Oswald Survived the Raven
The regeneration energy continued to do it's work.
It finished. The new Clara collapsed. She looked completely
different. The Doctor glared at Ashildr. The old Clara had still
ended afterall.
“I'm sorry, Doctor,” Ashildr said. “I truly am.”
“What she said about not taking revenge. Do you know why she said
that?” the Doctor asked.
“Wait,” Rigsy said, stepping between the two. “What just
happened.”
“A miracle. Clara just went through what should be impossible for a
human. River Song was a special case. I doubt Clara was.”
“River Who?” Risgy asked. “What haven't made sense.”
“It's a capability of the Time Lords, my people. Clara isn't a Time
Lady. She shouldn't have been able to regenerate,” the Doctor
explained. He turned back to Ashildr, he still had a great deal of
ire directed at her, afterall. “Now, do you know why she said what
she said?”
“She was saving you,” Ashildr answered.
“I was lost a long time ago. She was saving you. I'll do my
best, but I strongly advise you to keep out of my way. You'll find
that it's a very strong universe when I'm angry with you!”
Ashildr nodded.
The Doctor turned back to Rigsy. “Take care of Clara. Take her to
the TARDIS.” He was about to say more, but the transport bracelet
beeped and he was teleported away...
Rigsy looked to the new Clara, and back at Ashildr. “Take her, your
memories won't be erased when you leave the street. But remember
this, neither of you are welcome here!”
“Understood,” Rigsy said.
The TARDIS
Once
clear of the Street, Risgy had called Jen and said that he was on his
way home. First he dropped Clara in the console room. Immediately,
she sat up. “I've survived! I've changed! More girly. I like that!”
She pulled a strand of hair in front of her eyes. “A lighter brown.
I thought it would be lighter still,” she said with a disappointed
tone. “Rigsy!” She ran and hugged him.
He pushed her off him. “I have someone, remember,” he said,
looking into the new Clara's bright green eyes.
“Oh yeah. You can go.”
Rigsy exited the TARDIS. He then saw, it start to disappear, as the
new Clara attempted to make it fly....
The TARDIS
The Street
The Doctor looked as Clara walked down the Street. “Let me be
brave,” she said.
'No! There has to be a way to defeat a Quantum Shade! Just because a
method hasn't been found, doesn't mean that they can't be defeated,'
he thought. He brought out the sonic shades and put them on.
Instantly he called the TARDIS and directed her to materialise around
Clara. The Shade left it's cage, and started flying towards Clara.
The Doctor smirked as the TARDIS materialised.
“What are you doing, Doctor?” Ashildr asked.
“What I do best! Improvising!” he said, as the TARDIS landed
around Clara. He transmitted more instructions to the TARDIS, to stay
ahead of the Quantum Shade in the Time Vortex.
The TARDIS then dematerialised, taking Clara with it.
“She will still die, Doctor,” Ashildr said.
“Not before I get back,” the Doctor said, as the Raven approached
the place where the TARDIS had been.
“I'm sorry, Doctor,” Ashildr said. “I truly am.”
“What she said about not taking revenge. Do you know why she said
that?” the Doctor asked. The Raven had vanished, following the
TARDIS.
“She was saving you,” Ashildr answered.
“I was lost a long time ago. She was saving you. I'll do my
best, but I strongly advise you to keep out of my way. You'll find
that it's a very strong universe when I'm angry with you!”
Ashildr nodded and the transport bracelet beeped and he was
teleported away...
The TARDIS
Clara
tried to relax as the TARDIS took off, but she knew that the Quantum
Shade was still following her. The TARDIS made some noises and a
hologram of the Doctor appeared. “This is emergency
program one. The
TARDIS will continue to fly around the universe until I return from
wherever 'Lady Me' sent me. I highly advise you to head to the Zero
Room, where it would be less likely for the Quantum Shade to find you
if it does penetrate the TARDIS' defenses.”

That
was a safer path. He could then walk down the portico alongside
Dalton Hall, the University's main Hall. The Madgewick building would
then be rather close. He could the dash along it's northern wall, and
then pass the Chemistry and Mathematics buildings to their east.
'That will work,' he thought.
