[ As arrogant as he could be the Doctor knew when his own abilities lacked. Without question he follows after Tech's order zipping to the ATV on the right. He readies himself to time his sonic with Tech's tampering, but only sees the ATV's stall out causing the Sylphid's riding them to pitch over the handlebars without so much of a shout or a shot from Tech.
He can't help but feel like maybe something latent had awakened in Tech similar to his own healing abilities. The other possibility was that it had just been something he had always been able to do. The Doctor couldn't remember if that had been the case, but there was no time to dwell on it. The ATV rider closest to the Doctor casts an alarmed glance towards his fallen companions before locking his eyes on the Doctor. He waves briefly at the confused Sylphid before pressing the sonic, firing a sonic charge towards the ATV's inner mechanics. The speeder shakes and smoke begins to pour from the panels before it runs straight into an oncoming tree knocking the Sylphid on it out cold.
There's a triumphant grin on the Doctor's face under the helmet and he can't help but let out a little whoop of delight. ]
You're going to have to tell me how you did that later.
[ With the Sylphid soldiers on foot or shaken from their fall, the Doctor zipped back towards the tower knowing that Tech would be right on his heels. As he nears the clearing his momentary triumph becomes a cold dread when he realizes Clara isn't standing there. Instead, an unfamiliar figure stands over something, gun drawn. ]
Clara! [ And then over the comms - ] Tech, hurry up! [ The Doctor kicks the hoverboard into a faster speed, and he all but leaps off, sonic drawn towards the figure. Sparks fly from the gun as it malfunctions in the Sylphid's hand and they look up in confusion revealing the bleeding body of Clara. ]
