Short Dalek story by Clive May containing the fourth Doctor.

Story extract:

The being known as the Doctor tensed and sprang for the lever.

The Dalek guard unit switched into superspeed. To its senses the scene shuddered into slow motion. It observed critically the developing situation.

The Doctor, of course, would die.

The distance to the console was three metres, seven centimeters. The time required by the Doctor to cross that distance at his present acceleration was one thousand five hundred and eighty one microseconds. The weapon could be discharged in five microseconds.

Conclusion: The Doctor was dead.
