Doctor Who Magazine 135

Travelling leisurely through space, the Doctor suddenly collides with an unknown object.

He crash-lands on an unknown planet, only to be confronted by a Time Warden and a gigantic mechanoid, namely Death's Head.

The Doctor has been proposed with an offer he cannot refuse - get killed or bargain with Death's Head.

Luckily for the Doctor, who is about to get crushed by Death's Head's enormous morning-star, he had previously stolen a tissue compression eliminator from the Master.

Shrinking Death's Head down to the size of a human, the Doctor avoids death, and now has something to bargain with.

His TARDIS.

Death's Head agrees with the offer the Doctor has made him, changing ownership of the spaceship.

The Doctor manages to trick Death's Head by locking the transporting device on the nearest mechanical organism, and transporting it to a specified location.
