Swimming with the Fishes
"But I still don't get it."
"Donna to be honest, I don't think you ever get anything." A look of shock mixed with anger crossed Donna's face.
"It was a simple question! My only point was how a story of an undersea kingdom that doesn't exist get passed so far down the generation line unless it does really exist!" they had started a conversation about Atlantis after Donna had been pushed in to a large lake with some people with unfortunate limb mutations and thought she had found the undersea city.
"Well, it did exist but that was a long time ago and visitors weren't really aloud." The Doctor scratched his head and looked at the floor of the tardis, hoping Donna wouldn't realize that a time machine could go back to that long time ago.
"Well in case it escaped your notice sunshine, we are in a time machine! That kinda means we can go to any time we bloody well please!"
"Now there is no need to swear, I just wasn't so fond of the king that's all, he kinda tried to kill me when I tried to stop the sinking of Atlantis." The Doctor held his breath sending telepathic signals to Donna to drop the subject.
"Well we don't have to see the king now do we?" guess the signals didn't make it. "And how come you can stop the sinking of Atlantis but I can't try to help the people of Pompeii in that volcano explosion?" she had a small point.
"That was different! And visiting Atlantis is not the greatest ide-"
"Do it or I won't stop bugging you until your head blows up!" Donna added.
"Fine! We go. But I have one condition."
"And what would that be?" With Donna's special sweet little girl voice you would never know how much of a pain she really was.
