The TARDIS was out of control. Smoke filled the air around the console. Small fires were starting all over the room.

"God dam it Rory what did you press!" yelled the enraged doctor "I thought I told you to stay away from the control panel!"

Rory was currently cowering behind a very annoyed Amy

"Oi! Get a backbone wills ya?" Amy pushed Rory out in front of her. The doctor however was not interested with Rory at the moment. He was examining a large monitor attached to the TARDIS control panel.

"We're crashing!" screamed the doctor a hint of excitement present in his voice.

"What do you mean we're crashing!" replied an angry Rory "If you get me or Amy killed then I swear to god I will kill you!"

"If you were dead than how could you kill me? You really need to think these things through Rory"

"Guys!" screamed Amy "Will you both please stop fighting in case you haven't noticed the TARDIS is crashing through the time vortex onto some unknown planet into some unknown time period."

"Yes Amy you're right priorities, we need to get out priorities straight."

Just then the TARDIS started to go even faster, more and more fires were breaking out all over the time machine.
"Geronimo!" screamed the doctor

Amy and Rory grabbed onto the railings of a stair case and braced themselves for the crash.

The Impact shook the TARDIS considerably, pushing the doctor into the wall.

"Is everyone okay?" asked the doctor after a few minutes.

"Yes" said Rory his voice a little shaky. "We're both okay."

"Where are we doctor?" asked Amy "Please say Rio, you promised to take me there and we still haven't gone."

"No we're not in Rio" said the doctor while examining the Galifreyan text on one of the TARDIS's many screens. "By the looks of it we appear to be on Mount Tam, America in the year 2010.

Rory looked up relieved "at least we are on earth right"

"Yes I suppose so" said the doctor with a sigh. "But there is still the matter of my TARDIS"

"Do you know what's wrong with her" asked Amy delicately

"I ran a system diagnosis; it appears that Rory broke her navigational controls, she will need a few days to repair herself." I am detecting a large amount of energy near here that should help speed up the TARDIS repair circuit."

"What type of energy?" asked Amy Suspiciously?

"Oh its nothing out of the ordinary, Just some rift energy bleeding through to earth. It shouldn't cause us any problems"

"Ok then" said Amy "this isn't such a bad place to get stranded maybe we can hit the beaches. We are in California right?"

The doctor just smiled "humans, you're all the same."

"Well what are we waiting for? Come along Ponds, let's go explore!"

Amy and Rory quickly followed the doctor out of the smoke filled control room. The group paused as they surveyed the area. The TARDIS appeared to have landed on the top of the mountain. Black granite and marble blocks the size of houses was littered across the rocky landscape. Broken columns and half melted statues lay on the ground. The sky was dark and misty.

"What is this place?" asked Amy in wonder.

"I don't know" replied the doctor in a confused voice. "I've never been here before, Ponds you wait here I need to go back to the TARDIS and for once do environments check."

The doctor turned around and ran back to the TARDIS.

"What's that up ahead?" asked Rory in a curious voice. Up ahead a bit higher on the mountain was a cluster of gray clouds all swirling around each other.

Amy didn't answer him instead she just started walking up the mountain towards the swirling gray clouds"

"Amy wait!" screamed Rory "the doctor said to wait here"

Amy turned around rolled her eyes and replied "and when Rory, do we ever listen to him?" Amy continued jogging up the mountain. Rory looked back once then quickly followed his wife up the rocky terrain.

A few minutes we had reached the summit of Mount Tam. A few yards ahead of us gray clouds swirled in a heavy vortex, making a funnel cloud that nearly touched the mountain top. Instead it rested on the shoulders of a middle aged man. He looked weak, weary and exhausted. He looked half dead as the clouds pressed down on him. The man's head turned slowly to the side.

"Help me" he whispered in a weak but determined voice "please help me, its killing me please help me take the burden from me"

Amy stopped dead in her tracks at the sight of the man, causing Rory to bump into her. Amy just froze as the man repeated the question.

Suddenly Rory gasped "oh my God, Amy look at the TARDIS!"

Amy followed Rory's gaze to where the blue police box was now emitting a troubling orange glow.

Amy groaned "what has the doctor done this time?"

"I think you had better go help the Doctor" said Amy to Rory, I think he needs you more than I at the moment" Rory hesitated slightly before rushing off to assist the doctor.

Amy was left staring at the man moaning in pain by her feet. Amy knelt to the ground put her hand on the man's shoulder and whispered.

"Its ok the doctor is coming he will help you"

"I don't think I can last another second please, help me I'm dying you need to help me please take the burden from me just for a few seconds or I am going to die."

Amy looked pained until finally she knelt to the ground "I'll help you, Amy reached her hands up, the man rolled out of the vortex leaving Amy the full weight of this strange mist.

Ok this is an Idea I've been working on for a while. I really hope that you like the idea. I just recently started watching doctor who and am now completely addicted to the show. I love matt smith he makes an amazing doctor. Ok anyway tell me what you thought of this. I would love your feedback.
