I do not own any characters, including the oh-so-dashing Doctor, the cutesy-cute-cuteness that is Frodo Baggins (AWW) or the terrible evils that are the *spoilers* (if you watched Doctor Who you would understand) Vashta Nerada, Weeping Angels, Cybermen, Black Riders, and so on.

The Time Lord of the Rings

The TARDIS Intrudes

][][][

The TARDIS whoozed and coughed into life. The Doctor ran and hopped around it, excitedly. His waistcoat thrown on a chair, his bow loose around his neck, and his mop of hair pushed to the side, in his usual fashion, very unusual. He was muttering to himself, half of it was incomprehensible. He was impossible to understand, most of the time.

"What is she doing now? Ooh...no that'll tire you out."

A piece of the TARDIS blew up in smoke, and the Doctor jumped back in shock and horror.

"No! No, no, no... The flux is destroyed! What is happening...?! Oh no. This isn't good. This is not good at all." The TARDIS stopped. The console stopped moving and it wheezed sickly."Oh no. Oh no, oh no, no, no. She's dead. She can't be, but she's dead. The TARDIS is dead. Gone. Kaput."

The empty air listened to him intently, but he still felt that pang of loneliness every now and again. A sickly red light bathed the Doctor's disappointed and saddened face, but toxic smoke began to pour from the TARDIS console.

The Doctor quickly pulled the collar of his tweed jacket over his mouth and nose, and pushed open the TARDIS doors. He ran out into the open, and swatted the smoke away. He shut the TARDIS doors, and turned to take in his surroundings.

"Oh hello! What do we have here then?" The Doctor grinned cheekily as he readied himself for the next adventure.

The council had begun.

Elrond stood and called the council to attention.

"Strangers from distant lands, friends of old. You've been summoned here to answer the threat of Mordor." Elrond spoke authoritively, every ear was open, drinking in his words. The gravity in his manner called their attention without attempting to shout for it.

Surrounding him were High Elves and small dwarves, Men from Gondor and Rohan had come, including a very tall wizard and a worried looking young hobbit.

"Middle Earth stands upon the brink of destruction. None can escape it. You will unite or you will fall. Each race is bound to this fate, this one doom-"

Elrond was interrupted by a wheezing, and a noise that could be simply described as vwoorp, vwoorp, echoed in the council. A shape began to fade into the council, right beside Frodo, and he shrank into Gandalf and the weary wizard put a reassuring hand on his shoulder.

A large blue box materialised in front of the council of Elrond, and a man pushed open two doors. Smoked poured from inside, and the man slammed the doors shut. He coughed, waved his hand in the smoke, and then grinned when he saw the council.

"Oh hello! What do we have here then?"

The man was dressed in the strangest clothing any of the Elves, Dwarves, Men, or Hobbits had ever seen. He wore blue breeches, and had some sort of red straps holding them up over his shoulders. He wore a brown jacket, and had, what could only be described as, an incredibly stupid looking bow around his neck. Upon his head was a high red cap. It looked ridiculous too, but he wore it with complete pride.

The man moved his eyes across the whole council, then smiled again, "Hello everyone! I'm the Doctor!"

'The Doctor' reached over and took a seat beside Gandalf. "Oh go on! Don't let me interrupt." The Doctor beckoned with his hand. "Go on then!"

Elrond frowned, glanced at the strange blue box, which sat awkwardly beside Frodo, before continuing with the council.

The Doctor just sat there and looked bored.

The Doctor had fallen asleep. He was snoring incredibly loud, and it echoed throughout the courtyard, once everyone began arguing. There had been a huge uproar, every Man, Elf and Dwarf up out of their seat, shouting at each other. Then they all heard a snorting, croaky noise, and every head turned to the Doctor. He was slumped in his chair, and a drop of drool had made its way down his chin. The high red cap was falling over his eyes.

"How rude! That absurd man comes in here in that strange box of his," the dwarf speaking nervously glanced at the TARDIS, "And completely disrupts our meeting. Lord Elrond, I think you should remove this man from the council."

Lord Elrond looked at the Doctor and laughed. "Let the man sleep. He has come a long way." Gandalf looked to the elf.

"Did you see this?"

Frodo squirmed beside the blue box. Elrond shook his head. "Strangely, no. I can feel him in the future, but I can't see him."

With that the Doctor woke with a start. The red cap on his head rolled across the courtyard and landed at Boromir's feet. Boromir picked it up, and felt it with his hands.

"My fez!" the Doctor cried, and leaped up off his seat, and ripped it out of Boromir's hand.

"Fez? I have never heard of such a cap called a 'fez'." Boromir almost laughed. What a strange nam,e for a strange hat, for a strange man. The Doctor quickly replaced the fez on his head.

"Fezzes are cool." he stated, and Gandalf began to chuckle. "What?" The Doctor jumped over an upturned chair, and made his way over to the grey wizard. "They are."

"It is so very obvious you are in the wrong world. If you want to survive here you will have to cover it up some more. We don't want you to do something stupid!" Gandalf chuckled.

The Doctor grinned. "I always do something stupid! But then it looks to be very clever!" His eyes grew dark, and he looked into the distance, remorsefully "I haven't been in my world for a long time. And no one else has. My world was destroyed a long time ago. I have been running from every kind of war in every kind of world my whole life. I have seen worse situations than this, though this is a tricky one."

"That ring-" the Doctor points to the One Ring across from him,"-will tear you apart. It will tear your world apart. Nothing, even that small, is ever going to choose a side. Do not think it would save you." the Doctor looked over the whole council, who were listening intensely.

"Nothing ever saves you. Only you can save yourself." the Doctor turned and sat down in his chair, pulling his fez down over his eyes.

"Nothing ever saves you. No matter how much you wish it would."

"Ten companions...so be it. You are the fellowship of the ring." the Doctor had a big grin on his face as Elrond declared this.

"Great! Where are we going ?" at first the Doctor looked at poor Pippin strangely, then he smiled understandingly . He took his fez off and placed it on the Hobbit's head.

"There's no fun in knowing where you're going, Pip, it ruins the surprise!" the Doctor winked cheekily at Pippin.

"How do you know my name?" the Doctor just grinned and stepped back beside Gandalf

"You're a strange man, Doctor." Gandalf muttered.

"It's good you figured that out now, I'd rather not have to explain it to you later, it would be quite time-consuming." the Doctor laughed at his own joke, which no one else in Middle Earth would ever get.

The Doctor sat on the rock, legs crossed, chatting away to Gandalf, who was now puffing from a pipe.

"And then I said to the Judoon, Fro Jo Do Jo, and they replied -"

"So, what you're saying is these 'Judoon' are meant to be the peacekeepers of your 'galaxy' but have nearly been the reason for the death of two-thousand people and this world 'Earth'." Gandalf puffed from the pipe. "I pity your people."

"You don't get the point. I went right in and gave the Judoon a piece of my mind! Jo Do Jo and all that, and it was quite funny, to see those huge rhinos take me on! The Shadow Proclamation never did anything for Earth, always thought that just because it was a Level-5 planet it wasn't important." The Doctor stood up, and kicked at the dirt.

"Well is it? Is the Earth important?" Frodo had been listening in on their conversation, and seemed interested. Sam sat beside him, wide-eyed at the Doctor's stories.

In front of them, Merry and Pippin began to fight Boromir. They hopped up on him, and the man went down. Aragorn watched, laughing at poor Boromir.

"Every planet is important. Only the ones that embrace this are less. Any creature that says any planet is unimportant, and decides it's not worth any value, its people are simple and easy targets, well they'll have to speak to me." The Doctor sat down on the rock again, looking somewhat remorseful, and stayed quiet for the next minute or so.

Then a huge dark cloud swallowed the horizon, and Legolas shouted to the others.

"Crebain from Dunland!" Everyone began to panic. Any light-heartedness in the air had evaporated. The dark cloud seemed to be writhing, crawling through the air, rapidly. Against the wind.

The Crebain looked more like creatures. The Doctor noticed the jet-black wings, sharp, dark curved beaks, and knew what they were. Crows. "They are Saruman's spies." whispered Gandalf. "They were sent to follow the Fellowship."

Everyone hid under whatever crevices could be found in the rocky hill, and patiently waited. The Crebain flew around the hill, swarming above it, but then passed over.

The Fellowship continued on to Caradhras, and the Doctor seemed strangely anxious.

It was as though, somehow, he knew the next battle is coming. And he was happy with fighting in someone else's name.

But he would never fight in his own, which was ironic, in a way.
