- The Doctor banged his fist against the console.
- 'Time torpedo. We're temporarily frozen in a stasis bubble. We can't move.'

- Cinder sensed movement out of the corner of her eye, and a split second later the Battle TARDIS bloomed, detonating suddenly, as if struck by a shot from behind. The console room shook with the aftershock of the blast. She couldn't see anything, any sign of what had caused the explosion, as she hurriedly searched the view.

- A formation of sleek, black vessels had engaged the four remaining TARDISes, and the two sides were pitched in battle, trading shots as they circled each another in a fast and violent dance.
- The black ships seemed to have come out of nowhere. 'What are they?' asked Cinder.
- 'Dalek stealth ships,' said the Doctor.
- [...]
- 'We have to hope that they're happy to deal with the moving targets first,' he said, although she noticed his hands had not strayed far from the controls.
- [...]
- Almost simultaneously, she watched the remaining TARDISes die, their interior dimensions suddenly, dramatically exposed.

- She knew what was coming next. The stealth ships would converge on the Doctor's TARDIS, and in a moment, it too would be reduced to nothing but a bloated carcass, drifting in the void.
- She watched one of the Dalek ships glide overhead.
- The Doctor flicked a switch on the console and the engine hissed to life.
- 'I thought you said we were frozen in a temporal bubble,' she cried.
- The Doctor shrugged. 'I'm not falling for that old chestnut again,' he said. 'I upgraded the shielding.'
- 'Then... you were just stalling for time?'
- 'Precisely,' said the Doctor, slamming his fist into the controls.
