Plot[]
Nip and Strider are walking home from school when a blue police box blocks their path. As they both walk away, a strange man emerges from the police box calling himself The Doctor who then collapses. Nip and Strider take the unconsious Doctor home when Leo interrupts them with his usual nosiness. Moments later, when the door knocks again, Strider answers thinking it is Leo again, but instead a Kuio barges into the house and threateningly walks towards the terrified Nip and Strider. Suddenly, the Doctor awakes and aims his sonic screwdriver at the Kuio and seconds later, the alien vanishes. The Doctor gets up and heads towards the front door when Strider questions him. The Doctor explains that the Kuio can only appear in our reality for a short period of time and then suddenly collapses, suffering from post-regenerative stress. As the Doctor is unconsious again, another Kuio breaks into Nip's house and into his bedroom when the Doctor again awakes, using his sonic screwdriver to make the Kuio disappear. Nip and Strider follow the Doctor to his TARDIS when they all suddenly end up in the Sea of Souls dimension - a place where the Doctor had previously banished the Kuio. An army of Kuio, governed by the Kuio Leader, are ready to invade present Earth using the TARDIS to open up a gateway. The Kuio Leader says that the Doctor's "inferno" during the Time War had destroyed their original bodies so they will take revenge by using the humans' bodies as new hosts. Also, the Kuio Leader mentioned a previously meeting with the Doctor and did not recognise the Doctor's current form suggesting that the Doctor had regenerated inbetween events. When the army of Kuio begin to invade, the Doctor uses a Transdimensional Key to send him, Nip and Strider home and by closing the gateway behind them, have banished the Kuio to the Sea of Souls dimension forever. The Doctor chooses his new outfit and Nip asks to join him on adventures permanently. At first the Doctor refuses but Strider then volunteers to look after Nip and the three embark on adventuries throughout time and space...
