The TARDIS started materialize, and on the inside was its loyal commander, the Doctor, accompanied by his current companions, Amy and Rory.

"Doctor, can you tell me why, exactly, we're going to southeast Thailand?" asked the fiery Scott, Amy Pond, from the stairs leading down to the main console room. The Doctor flipping random switches and pulling various levers.

"There's a package that I have to deliver there. You know how merchants can be, always on time, always threatening you if you're late." The Time Lord said. He walked towards the door. "Come along Pond, and you too Rory, I'm sure you'll get a kick out of sea merchants. Either figuratively or literally." He commented. Amy laughed and Rory rolled his eyes annoyed, and they both moved towards the door.

"Alright, I put us down on a ship, should be the 21st century, and…" he pulled open the doors and stepped outside. They automatically found themselves below deck, some sort of storage brig.

"Well, we are in a boat." Rory granted this statement. He pointed to the shelves on the wall, lined with mysterious jars, a few grenades, and food with labels in Italian. "Not so sure if it's friendly or not?" he wondered.

"Oh sure it is, I hope," the Doctor took a big leap out of the TARDIS, gently followed by Amy. "Just as long as we don't break anything." He warned and continued out of the storage room to a main hallway. "Seems we're all the way below deck." He meandered the hall. He turned to find a giant mechanical engine in the middle.

"Don't usually see that on an Asian fishing vessel, do you Doctor?" Amy asked with doubt. They continued as the hall lead around the engine. They kept walking down the hallway, passed what looked like a quick little hospital on the right, and a stash of weaponry and armor to the left.

"So, some kind of rocket powered war ship?" Rory guessed.

"Oh, come now Rory. Don't be ridiculous!" the Doctor said like it was obvious. "That's obviously not rocket power, it's a simple engine." He found stairs leading up. He started up the steps, Amy and Rory following him, when he quickly turned his head. "But do be weary of the crew. God knows what they'll do to us if they find us." He said with caution and happiness. He kept up the stairs.

"Great, sneaking into an angry sea merchant's ship! Love to see how this is going to play out." Rory said sarcastically.

"We're not sneaking in, we're sneaking out. Besides, Thailand is supposed to be warm and tropical in the good seasons. Perhaps after the Doctor delivers his package, we can find a beach, and relax, and…" Amy said lightening the mood when the Doctor stopped short in his steps when they were all up the steps and into the hall way almost identical to the one below.

Right in front of the Doctor was a young boy, about 15, holding a ball of fire in his hands. They kid looked of Hispanic descent, with curly black hair, pointy ears, a babyish face, and excited brown eyes. He wore greased up clothing with a tool belt around his waist.

"INTRUDERS!" he yelled, alerting the rest of the crew. "Stop where you are! Don't move." He ordered.
