Takes place between Series 8 & Series 9.

Clara's POV:

"Such a cold gray day…I don't care where we go, so long as it's warm." I said as I stepped into the TARDIS.

"Doctor?" I called. The control room was completely empty.

"Doctor?" I called again, louder. He still didn't answer. It was strange. I knew the TARDIS was much bigger than it appeared, so perhaps he just couldn't hear me. Or maybe he had just stepped out for a moment?

"Doctor, if you can hear me, I'm just going to drop off my grading in my room." I said, still with no answer. At lest it would give me a chance to change into the comfy flats I had left here last time, instead of these uncomfortable stiletto heels that I had worn to work…

As I crossed the control room, one of my heels got stuck in the grating on the floor. I fell forward, accidently hitting a few buttons…as well as pulling down at least one lever. The TARDIS engines immediately came to life.

"Oh no." I said to myself. I pulled off my other shoe, so I wouldn't trip again, & quickly got to my feet. I had flown the TARDIS before, but only with the Doctor's supervision…I had no idea how to fly it on my own. I wasn't even sure what I had pressed when I had tried to catch myself!

"Doctor!" I yelled, panicked. I started flipping switches, pressing buttons. I knew the Doctor moved around the console when we were in flight, so I started playing with the controls that weren't right in front of me.

I flipped a couple of blue switches, & suddenly the whole room started shaking. I was thrown back against the railing. I stepped forward, but the TARDIS shook again. I couldn't get any traction in my stockings & slid, hitting my head hard against one of the columns. I suddenly felt very dizzy.

My legs gave out, & I fought to stay awake, even though my head felt heavy.

I had to stay awake.

I had to stay awake!

But as the cloister bells started to ring, everything went black…

I opened my eyes slowly. It felt like something was nudging my shoulder.

"Mistress? Are you all right?" There was a voice attached to the nudging.

"I think so." I said, sitting up slowly. "What happened?" I asked, but the memory immediately rushed back. My stupid shoe, the fall, trying to fly the TARDIS, hitting my head…

I turned to look at who was with me. It looked almost like a robotic dog.

"Who are you?" I asked, carefully getting to my feet.

"I am K-9." It was a robotic dog that talked. "My mistress, Sarah Jane Smith, sent me to the Doctor for a diagnostic scan after I completed my mission of containing a black hole. The TARDIS woke me out of sleep mode when it sensed that there was nobody at the controls. I have safely landed us, but there is a breach in the environmental regulatory system."

"Where's the Doctor?" I asked with a cough. The room was filled with some sort of fog. "Is he all right?"

"The Doctor's location is unknown, Mistress. He is not on board the TARDIS."

"You don't have to call me Mistress. My name is Clara." I said, coughing again.

"Misstress, while the steam being released is not toxic, it may make your breathing difficult."

"So I should probably step outside, then?" I asked around another cough. I retrieved my shoes, including the one stuck in the grate, & carefully walked over to the door.

Maybe this wasn't so bad. Maybe K-9 had managed to return the TARDIS to Coal Hill, or somewhere in the UK? Maybe I'd be able to send a message to the Doctor somehow, let him know I'm all right?

I stepped outside & took a few deep breaths. K-9 followed close behind me.

Oh no.

This wasn't good at all.

"K-9…I have a feeling we're not on Earth any more."

"Affirmative."

It has always been tradition for TV networks to air The Wizard of Oz around this time of year, so I think this is the perfect time to combine Doctor Who with one of my favorite classics! This one will be so much fun for me to write...I hope you guys enjoy it as well!
