The Maze

"You know perfectly well that you can't kill me. There is nothing that you can do that will hurt me." I hissed as I walked up to my dad. "Or is there?" He said holding up a dark blue liquid in his hands and twidling it with his fingers. "I know what you're thinking. You think that I can't kill you because you're immortal. Oh my daughter, you are so wrong. This can kill anything, including silly, little immortals." "Don't you put that anywhere near me." I started moving back as they moved forward. A guard grabbed my arms from behind and held me so my neck was exposed. The liquid was poared into a needle and then slowly jabbed into my neck. I felt my legs getting weaker and I eventually crashed onto the floor. "The poison starts by weakening your limbs, then it makes you dizzy and makes your vision slightly blurry, lastly it shuts down your organs and you die. Here's the deal. Because I'm a generous man I've made a maze. If your friends can get to the middle, find you, find the cure and get you out in time then you live." I was carried by the guard into the maze after giving my family an evil stare.

The Doctor's POV

"Doctor!" Evelyn's voice screamed from behind. She had disappeared to god knows where. The fire alarm went off and the surprised and disgusted cries from students filled the school as they tried to get away from the vinegar rain and their exploding teachers. Everyone ran outside while we ran to the TARDIS. However, we didn't get that far. As me, Amy and Rory reached the door someone teleported us and the TARDIS to somewhere else. 

It was dark, cold and there were stone walls covered in vines in front of us. "Welcome Doctor and friends." A familiar voice greeted. I recognised the voice as one that I had despised from the moment I saw him. Evelyn's father. "Doctor, who is he?" Amy asked. She wasn't scared but was creeped out that he knew me. "Doesn't matter. What does matter is this: Where is Evelyn?" He wasn't anywhere so he must have been talking into a speaker. "I was just getting to that. Each of you will travel to the maze to find the middle. In the middle, you will find your friend. But hurry, you have an hour and people get lost in this maze. Remember, one hour. She is waiting." The speaker cut off and everything went silent. The maze doors opened and we walked in.

The walls were lined with torches but it didn't really make a difference. It was still dark and creepy, still didn't make a difference to our usual adventures. "So Doctor," Amy said running up beside me. "Who is he. And no, it matters if you know him because he could be dangerous." I sighed and told her. "He's Evelyn's dad. Long story short, he wants her dead and this is the second time he has tried something in order to kill her even though she is immortal. The question is, what does he think he can achieve from this?" I answered.

Just when things couldn't get any worse, a wall behind us moved. Not all of us were through. Rory had lagged behind and was on the other side of the wall. "Rory! Are you okay?" Amy shouted from our side of the wall. "Yeah. I guess this guy didn't want to make things easy for us." Rory shouted back. "We're going to have to go different ways. If you find Evelyn call Amy and vise versa." I said to Rory hoping that he could hear me. "Yep, alright. Lets go our separate ways in a dark and scary maze." Rory walked off and we continued down our trail.
