Chapter 6 – Ilkona
9 February
2710
Ilkona City,
Ilkona, Terran Empire of Planets
Deep in the
seedy underbelly of Ilkona City two people
met.
“Yes,” the other said.
They exchanged information on their personal electronics
“Is this all of it?”
one of them asked.
“Yes,” the other said, as she vanished into the night.
The other also went back the way he had come.
Outside Ilkona City
The TARDIS materialised beside a road on a forested
hillside not far from Ilkona City.
“So, where are we?” Felicia asked, looking at the Scanner
screen as Susan activated it.
“The Terran colony of Ilkona in the year 2710,” Susan
answered. “I think it’s a peaceful year.”
“If we are here, I doubt that will remain true for much
longer,” Tamsin said, cheekily.
“I agree, Tamsin,” Susan said.
“Is there any more information we should know?” Felicia
asked, wondering how dangerous it could be.
“Not really,” Susan answered. “But you should be careful,
and be ready to run if I say to run.”
“She always says that,” Kiara added.
“My Susan sometimes says it too,” Felicia said in a wistful
tone.
“Let’s go,” Susan said as she opened the TARDIS door. “Wait
a moment.” She pressed a button on the console. “There, Tamsin and Felicia.
Your phones will be able to access the local internet now.”
“But that’s not very fair. What about Kiara and Nathan?”
Felicia asked, as they left the TARDIS.
“I share! Besides, Kiara has a Tyrian device that
performs a similar function,” Tamsin said.
