On Gallifrey a familiar figure was watching battle inside the council chambers. As the battle progressed he started to sigh.
"How boring. Are these the same people that have trapped the Q in the Continuum? I'd have reckoned them to be much stronger, but they're like ants waiting to be crushed."
"Lord President, you realise that this is only a fraction of their forces? They outnumber us and as we speak more of their ships are en-route to Earth."
"Destroy their hyperspace beacons and trap them in hyperspace, or redirect their paths into black holes and the cores of stars. Have a portion of our fleet standby to take on the beachhead at the rift."
With a bored expression on his face the Lord President stood up and started to walk outside of the council chambers.
"Lord President, where are you going?"
"Taking a nap. When I return you'd better have some tea ready. Rassy, you're in charge."
He disappeared into thin air, leaving a flabbergasted council behind.

Meanwhile, in Greg's chambers, a woman was going through his stuff, only to be surprised when the Lord President appeared behind her.
"Hello, Anna."
"Greg."
"So you've decided to come along with Gallifrey and not remain within the Impossible System."
"You're wrong, Greg, I'm here to say goodbye."
"So Cassius turned you into a Tardis, how amusing. That's why you're capable of coming here, isn't it?"
"How astute of you, then again we are alike. I should've known you'd figure it out the moment you saw me again."
"Why are you really here, Anna? We were raised not to exhibit feelings."
"I'm here to ask you to reconsider your decision and join us in the Impossible System before we seal it."
"I won't. However, I want you to take in Laplace should the need ever arise. Now leave."
"Very well. Goodbye Greg, although I reckon we'll see each other again."
With that the woman disappeared, leaving the Lord President alone in his chambers. With a sigh the Lord President disappeared and reappeared in the Library on Earth and decided to read a book while waiting for the events he had foreseen to transpire.
