Author's Notes: Written for Challenge 636: Auspicious at dw100.
Summary: The Doctor arrives in the nick of time.

“Without assistance our armies cannot prevail. But…”
“What?”
“The one with the blue box will be our salvation.”
“Blue box? What are you on about?”

“This is a most auspicious moment,” Zoosh intoned.
“Hello, I’m the Doctor. Now, about these Daleks…”
