  • The TARDIS lands underground on an alien planet with super-heated water. The Doctor detects the heated water with his sonic screwdriver. As soon as he turns it on, a swarm of bat-like creatures swarm down and fly straight at the Doctor. A short, hooded figure beckons the Doctor into a cave. The Doctor follows him in. The Doctor turns off the sonic screwdriver and the bat creatures stop their chase. The hooded figure reveals himself as Kaze. He tells the Doctor that the bat creatures are called Shrikes and they feast on electronic energy. Kaze takes the Doctor to his village. He tells them that the people have been reduced to using wind power to escape the shrikes. Kaze takes the Doctor to the Halls of Sacrifice and introduces the Doctor to the village leader, Genji. Genji tells the Doctor it is called the halls of sacrifice as every year a pair are chosen to train to defend against the Shrikes. Kaze tells the Doctor that when there is little electronic energy, the Shrikes turn to eating the people of the village. Kaze says his grandfather was sucked dry by them. In revenge Kaze signs up to be chosen to become a warrior. The choosing begins and two are picked. Neither is Kaze. The Doctor ponders why the ones not chosen are not heading back to the village. He follows them to find himself, Kaze and the rest who were not picked thrown over a cliff!
