Susan Mendes was a geologist working for the Rhinesberg Corporation. Taking a break from her work one fateful day, Susan had a short picnic lunch with Alby Brook, who was working as a water-taxi operator in the marshlands of Vega VI As they chatted about their jobs over some homemade pickled onions, they saw a burning starship streak through the atmosphere on a collision course for Vega City. As they rushed back to the city, they found that they could only pick up local broadcasts — the satellites had been destroyed. A furious battle with the Dalek invasion force was taking place. The broadcast was interrupted the Daleks announcing their victory and subjugation of the Vega system. (AUDIO: Invasion of the Daleks)

  • Susan Mendes was a geologist working for the Rhinesberg Corporation. Taking a break from her work one fateful day, Susan had a short picnic lunch with Alby Brook, who was working as a water-taxi operator in the marshlands of Vega VI As they chatted about their jobs over some homemade pickled onions, they saw a burning starship streak through the atmosphere on a collision course for Vega City. As they rushed back to the city, they found that they could only pick up local broadcasts — the satellites had been destroyed. A furious battle with the Dalek invasion force was taking place. The broadcast was interrupted the Daleks announcing their victory and subjugation of the Vega system. (AUDIO: Invasion of the Daleks) Susan only knew of the Daleks from obscure history lessons and was confused and even appalled by Alby's seemingly cold behaviour toward the situation. Refusing to follow him, Susan remained on Vega VI, wanting to find her parents before it was too late. The Daleks stormed the planet, laying waste to cities and enslaving the population. The weak and injured were exterminated as they would only serve to slow down the efficiency of the workforce. Other captives were surgically-altered into Robomen. As the population was being corralled, Susan assisted a man named Kalendorf and in turn stopped him from being exterminated by the Daleks. Susan's obstinate attitude toward the Dalek patrol confused and intrigued them, and Susan was kept under close scrutiny. The machine drilling was stopped and the enslaved population of Vega VI was put to work, digging and chipping away at veins of Veganite in poorly-ventilated shafts with little more than their own bare hands. The Robomen assisted the Dalek patrols, ordering the slaves to work without rest and food. Disobedience was punishable by constant whippings and extermination. The slaves were quite literally worked to death, dropping by the hundreds, and even the Robomen were showing fatigue. Growing exhausted from being overworked to her breaking point, Susan once again lashed out at her Dalek masters, demanding rest and food. Her outburst was recorded and transmitted to the Dalek Supreme in the Seriphia Galaxy, which demands to speak with Susan. Taken to a communications chamber, Susan is left alone, facing a screen and the Dalek Supreme, who tells her that it is transmitting from the Seriphia Galaxy, which the Daleks had created themselves using the Apocalypse Element. Having asserted that the Daleks will not be defeated, the Dalek Supreme demands to know why Susan continues to be defiant and even genuinely awaits an answer. Susan was too exhausted to think clearly, trying to explain that the slaves needed rest. However, if the slaves rested, the work would stop and that was not acceptable. If the slaves die, more slaves can be brought in. Susan attempts to counter by demanding rest, food, and hope, but cannot adequately explain why the slaves need these things due to her fatigued state. Frustrated and spent, Susan told the Dalek Supreme to kill her. Instead, it informed her that the slaves would be allowed to rest and that they would speak again. In time, a shift system was implemented for the slaves, allowing work to continue and the slaves to survive. (AUDIO: Invasion of the Daleks)
