VWOORRRP VWOOOORP…. The TARDIS stopped and settled after what seemed like an eternity, Clara had been with the newly regenerated Doctor and everything felt weird and awkward. She's known him for a long time, but his new self will take some getting used to. She opened the doors to the TARDIS expecting to see home, but instead was greeted with a cold, wasteland. She sighed and reentered the spaceship. He may have a new body, but he's still bad with directions.

"Doctor, where are we?" She asked.

The doctor looked at the screen and sighed.

"It appears we are in….Pripyat, Eukraine. No need to worry, I'll get you home." He said, his tone more grumpy than usual.

"Wait, Pripyat? Isn't this where the Chernobyl accident happened?" She asked, suddenly interested.

The Doctor nodded. "Yes, but we are in the right year….it is two thousand fourteen, yes?" He asked, not clear on the year.

Clara nodded. "At least you got that part right. I'd hate to arrive right when the accident happened. Imagine the chaos." She said with a shudder.

The Doctor looked over the TARDIS screen and raised an eyebrow (now that he has them he can do that).

"There is still radiation here, but it's mostly around Chernobyl. Let's go before we're exposed to too much of it." He said, mostly to the TARDIS.

"Let's explore!" Clara said, hopping up and down a bit with excitement.

The Doctor shook his head. "No, it could be dangerous."

"Fine, I'll go by myself." Clara said, and went to put on some warmer clothes.

The Doctor said nothing, figuring he could change the coordinates before she was done changing. He was wrong, Clara was done before he could figure out how to change the coordinates and not get them lost.

Clara practically ran out of the TARDIS, the Doctor following as fast as he could.

"Clara! It's too dangerous!" He yelled, catching up and gabbing her arm.

Clara turned around. "What are you so afraid of? We'll be fine, this place is a ghost town." She stopped talking for a moment. "Hear that? Not a sound!"

The Doctor shook his head. "Areas of this place are full of radiation."

Clara sighed. "We just won't go near the plant, that's where most of it is, right? We'll be fine!"

She turned and walking. The Doctor looked around, not feeling truly safe. He shook his head and hurried to catch Clara again. Clara smiled.

"We'll be fine, trust me." She said, truly believing they'd be fine.
