Rec: The Prize

Story: The Prize
Author: Mouth on Legs
Rating: All Ages
Word Count: 53,770
Author's Summary: After he is poisoned, the Doctor, Tegan and Nyssa must find the being the who did it and are then forced into the labrinyth of a madman who must have a Time Lord to undo his greatest mistake. Should they succeed they will receive the antidote, fail and the Doctor will die, unable to regenerate.
Characters/Pairings: Fifth Doctor/Tegan, Nyssa
Warnings: None

Recced because: I couldn't end the week without reccing something for one of my long-time favorite pairings. This story is a guilty pleasure of mine. Nyssa and Tegan have to take care of an incapacitated Doctor in this one, giving both the opportunity to use their respective skills. I love the meaty plot and the slow build-up to romance.

53,770 words is way too long for me to read before my morning meeting, but I've had a hard time finding good Five/Tegan, so I'm really looking forward to this! Thanks for the rec.

Great story this. I've read it at least twice. It gets five very shiny gold stars.
