new story. I do not own any rights to doctor who.

(there could be some spell mistakes.)

chaper 1: problems

"Allons-Y!" yelled the doctor while he pulled a leaver. the whole room shook.

"what?" asked amy and river surprised. rory also looked at the doctor in suprise.

"I used to say that in a previous regeneration." explained the doctor "I was just trying if it still sounded cool."

river rolled her eyes. "and does it?"

"no" answered the doctor after a moment of thought. he pulled one last leaver and the TARDIS landed.

the doctor pulled his bowtie "lets go!"

he ran to the door but half way he seemed to trip over something. he screamed. he grabbed his head and screamed again.

river, who was the closest ran to him. amy and rory arrived a second later.

"doctor? sweetie?" river asked "what is happening?"

the doctor screamed again. river got her scanner out and scanned him while softly stroking his hair. it seemed to help a little bit. Amy helt the doctors hand, hoping that it would also help a little, and rory lisned to the doctors hearts. he was the first to come to a conclution:

"those hearts are going way too fast. even for a time lord."

river had finished her scan

"you're right" she said "he is very ill. we have to get him to the sick bay."

she typed something on a keybord on the controlpanel of the TARDIS. as soon as river stood up Amy took over stroking the doctors hair.

river pointed to a coridor. "we have to go that way."

rory carefully picked the doctor up and carried him to the way river pointed. she went first, rory followed and amy came last. now and again the doctor screamed appearently having some terrible nightmare.

"what is wrong with him?" asked amy

"he is ill, very ill" river answered "but I have no idea what is going on. I dont know anything about time lord illnesses."

river had lost some of her calmness, almost running through the TARDIS. she turned left and opened the doors on the right. they came into a quite big, white room. there were beds around the room and next to every bed was a monitor.

"the sickbay" annownsted river.

rory put the doctor on the bed. the monitor turned on and his vital signs appeared on it. river worked on the screen and amy went on stroking the doctors hair.

"he seems to be in some sort of coma" river remarked as she pushed the button called dyagnostics. on the screen came in big black letters 'Dying' river made a shocked sound and amy and rory looked up. they noticed what is said and amy cried:

"oh my god!"

tearss started to roll over her face. rory sat down next to her and tried to comfort her as best as she could. river turned away. she didnt want to show that she also was crying. rory pushed river away from the screen and started typing. he was fighthing his tears.

"cant he just regenerate?" he asked in no-one in paticular.

'no'

appreard on the screen

'his enzymes are wrong.'

after they had read it the screen changed back to the doctors signs. his hearts were beating way too fast and his temprature was raised.

"but he cant be dying." said amy while the tears ran down her face "I mean we saw him."

river didnt try to hide her tears anymore "time can be rewritten" she said while the tears ran down her face.

"how long does he have" asked amy. rory and river looked at the screen.

"two days I think" said river careully.

"I think" said amy "that we should call a few old companions. to say goodbye I mean." she stood up and wiped the tears of her face.

"there arent that many left." said river "Rose is sealed off and donna's memory is wiped."

"what about jack? and sarah-jane?" came rory into the conversation.

"we could call them" river suggested. "I'll go check on where and when we are and call them." she said while she walked out of the room. she looked of her shoulder one more time.

"would you give me some time alone here honey?" asked amy when river was out the door. rory stroke amy's hair a few times and kissed her on her cheek. "if that is what you need love" he said and left after giving her one last kiss.
