Another tongue-click and the zombie was engulfed in flame as her rapidash charged it before wheeling around, this time sparking with electricity. One wild charge later and the thing was a charred cinder on the ground, the animal wheeling around with a neigh as ears flickered.

“Good.” She didn’t look at the remains though. The stench of charred flesh mingling in the air around her was enough to make anyone sick. Though, Leaf simply held her head up high, unwilling – unable – to allow it to get to her. Weakness on the battlefield was intolerable.

“Let’s go. There’ll be more around somewhere. What she didn’t say was that she hopped to find somewhere she could take a breather from the fighting. Or, failing that, find another living soul. Anything to tell her that she wasn’t alone in all of this.

"Ponpon's good like that." Leaf took his hand then vaulted up behind him. No sooner was she seated did she dig her heels into the animal's side, sending him into long strides. It didn't take more than five strides for the rapidash to start cantering. "I won't let you fall."

Leaf wrapped her arms around him lightly. While she was used to riding a horse with neither reins nor saddle, she had no idea of knowing if it was the same for him. "You said you knew a safe haven?"

His legs gripped the fiery horse expertly; he'd long, long ago learnt how to ride a horse, no matter what the saddle situation. "Brilliant," he quipped, "neither will I!" While he wasn't entirely sure if this horse would listen or not, he still tried to direct it towards the park.

"Yes, I did!" Though "safe haven" was something of a misnomer, at least to him. The Cybermen tomb was still very much dangerous, but it was even more inactive than when he first visited it lifetimes ago. Even all the traps had been disabled, and no matter what he did, the Cybermen were mere husks--which said quite a bit for the Cybermen in general. "Out on the lake is a tomb. I can seal the door so those creatures can't get to us."

Leaf nodded and shifted her weight just a bit, the rapidash responding to her commands, too well trained to respond to anything else. It was only a mater of seconds that they'd started to out pace the zombies.

Leaf giggles a bit at his quip, but it was nervousness more than anything. She couldn't have the pokemon go as fast as he normally would simply because she was unwilling to risk the other falling off. It didn't matter how good a rider he seemed, there was always that chance.

It wasn't long until they reaches the lake and the tomb entrance, the horse coming to a trot with a snort and head shake, wheeling away from the water a bit until Leaf called it to a halt. "Um. Do you require help getting down?"

5'7 is a long way down in Leaf's book.

I'm so sorry this is late!

He made sure the horse had stopped moving, more out of caution that it'd suddenly buck him off than anything, and shook his head. "Nope!" he said, easily swinging his leg over the horse's back and leapt down to the ground. "Thanks though."

His cheery demeanour didn't last long, however. He glanced over his shoulder, eyeing the zombies heading their way. "All right, get in! We can do introductions and such later!" He walked in front of the fiery horse, resting a reassuring hand on its head. "I promise you'll be safe. Nothing will harm you in there. Either of you," he added, giving the young woman a warm look.

It's ok!

Leaf vaulted down as soon as he was was off unclipping a small red and white sphere from her belt at the same time. No sooner has she landed than was it enlarged to about the size of a baseball and she recalled the rapidash, before clipping it back onto her belt. A nod, and he started to make for the tomb entrance. "I'll hold you to it."

The Doctor blinked, then said, "Well, that'll make things easier. Allons-y!" He turned and ran across the walkway, opened the door to the tomb, then waited for her to get in before he shut it up nice and tight behind them. Just to be on the safe side, he did a bit of fiddling of the door panel with his sonic screwdriver, the instrument whirring and glowing blue for the few seconds he had it on, then he slipped it into his pocket.

"Well! Here we are!" He smiled and began to untie the bedsheet containing the medical supplies he'd wrapped within from around his body. "Now, I've got to ask: were you or your horse bitten or scratched by those creatures?"
