AN: Alright then, this is my first fanfic, so I'm nervous about all this. I'll try my best and hope that it'll all work out. Now, I know there are lots of fanfics about the characters watching Doctor Who, there has never been one with 'The Day of the Doctor' so I thought that I would write it. I'm doing this in chapters, because I won't be able to do the entire story in one go. I'm not on the computer very often so I most likely won't be able to update periodically, but I'll try to update at least once a week and if I can't do that then once every two weeks. Just know that I won't give up on this story because I hate it when people give up on their's so I won't do that to you guys. Well, I'm babbling so let's jump into the story!
Disclaimer: Although I would love to have that kind of power over Doctor Who, I'd probably just ruin everything. So I don't own it.
Chapter 1: An Unusual Meetup
Amy and Rory were just starting to relax on their small couch. They lived in a small apartment from what they were used to, but they couldn't complain- it was large enough for all they needed. Amy had just published her book, Melody Malone, and which made more money than they had expected. River visited every couple of months to check on them, and it was her who had first given them money to start their new life.
They were relatively happy together, but didn't have all the pleasures that they were used to having after all, it was the 1940s. So as they were relaxing they heard this strange buzzing and could taste metal in the air. A bright light enveloped the pair of them and everything went black.

River had just said her last goodbye to her husband on Trenzalore with her hint about Clara. She had put on a smile for him but was heartbroken inside. She knew she had to go but still didn't want to. River heard the same buzzing sound with a strange taste in her mouth, when the blank, gray landscape around her faded to white before the sudden change to black.

Martha and Mickey were just settling in for the night thoroughly shaken. Their lives as freelancers was hard, but it was everything they could have wanted. The previous day they were hired by the people of Clom to take out some rouge Sontarans that were causing trouble when they had heard a thudding from far away and turned to see The Doctor standing on a balcony next to a fallen Sontaran with a hammer in hand. The Doctor had yet again saved them from an unknown danger. However, he had a very grim look on his face and suddenly left. Martha and Mickey feared the worst for their Doctor, that they weren't ever going to see him again. Just as they were getting getting into bed, they too heard the noise and saw the light until it was overtaken by darkness.

Jack was lying in his room feeling depressed, he had broken up with Alonso. Jack felt as though nothing would ever go right for him. Ianto was dead, along with Tosh and Owen, and the Torchwood Hub destroyed. He thought about The Doctor and realized something he had never thought of before. (AN: italics are for thoughts, also in this, Miracle Day never happened) This must be how The Doctor feels whenever he looses a companion, Jack thought sadly, It's no wonder he's slightly mad after how long he's lived, he must have lost so many friends. Jack was worried about his old friend, he hadn't looked so good the last time they had encountered, he was very sad. Jack heard the buzzing and metallic taste and thought he was falling asleep, but the white light worried him. Before he could think on it anymore, everything went black.

It had been three years sense The Doctor had dropped Rose and The Metacrisis Doctor off on Pete's World. The two of them had gotten married after the first year. The Metacrisis Doctor had decided to use the name John Smith so now they were Rose and John Smith. It had taken a while for John to get used to not being able to fly off to anywhere, anywhen he wanted to, but Rose helped him. They both worked at Torchwood, John agreeing to do it only if no harm ever came to the aliens there unless used in self-defense. His alien expertise was invaluable, what with 900+ years of knowledge in his mind.
They lived a happy life in their large house. They made plenty of money between the two. The house was TARDIS blue, at John's insistence, and they had everything they could ever wish for. They were just finishing up dinner and deciding that it was John's turn to clean the dishes when the noise and metallic affronted them. "Rose, it's a teleportation beam," John had just enough time to get that out before the white then the black.

The eight people woke in a strange white room with no doors or windows. There were three couches in a semicircle in front of a large, flat-screen TV, and a coffee table in the center of the room with a large bowl of buttered popcorn. Everyone slowly got up, most with the help of their respected spouses, too shocked at what had happened to speak.
Jack was the first to break the silence, "Well then Doctor, do you have any idea of what the heck is going on?"
John looked bemused, "Actually Jack, I'm the Metacrisis and I go by John now. As for what's going on, I have no idea."
Amy was very confused, why had that man in the trench coat called the thin man in the pinstripes 'Doctor'? She decided to speak up, "What do you mean? The Doctor looks nothing like him."
Everyone looked at Amy, who tensed at the sudden attention. Rose turned to the redhead, "So The Doctor's regenerated then? I'm Rose, by the way."
River looked shocked at that statement. The Doctor had told her about Rose, about all the people round her. She suddenly realized that she was corporeal, and not a hologram. Suddenly a note fell from the air in front of her in flash of light and River grabbed it and opened it. She announced, "There's a note here, listen."
"Dear companions of The Doctor,
You may be wondering what you are doing here and who these people are. First off introductions, the man in the pinstripes and the young lady next to her are John and Rose Smith. The two people with darker skin are Martha and Mickie Jones-Smith. The handsome man with the trench coat is Captain Jack Harkness. The redhead and man with the long nose are Amy and Rory Williams. And the delightful woman reading this note is River Song. Now, at to why you are here, something monumental has just happened to The Doctor and I believed you all should know. I've recorded it as the event was happening for this very purpose. I'll give you ten minutes to explain everything you need to to each other and to get to know one another. Just so River knows, what's taking place to The Doctor now is right after what she's just experienced, and Amy has just published her first book. If any of you need anything, just ask. The TV will pause automatically when you start talking and resume when you're done. And Jack, no flirting because everyone here is married. That's it for now, enjoy.
From, The TARDIS"
Rory was the first to speak after that, "That was helpful. And Rose, what were you saying about regenerating?"
Instead of Rose, John answered him, "Well, regeneration is what a Timelord does when dying. We basically change change our bodies and our personalities to stay alive. But we can only do it twelve times. The one we all knew was the tenth regeneration, and looked just like me. What was your Doctor like?"
"Our Doctor looked around twenty-four years old, had floppy brown hair, green eyes, wore a tweed coat and a bow tie. And he had about as much energy as a bunny rabbit on steroids." Amy informed them.
"That's not too different from our Doctor. As John said, ours looked just like him, but slightly younger, and in a brown suit," Martha explained to Amy and Rory.
Jack decided that he couldn't remain still for so long, "Well then, should we start the show? I can hardly wait!"
They all organized the seating like this, left to right, Amy, Rory, and River on the first couch. Martha, Mickie, and Jack (who of course took the bowl of popcorn) on the middle couch. And finally Rose and John on the last couch.
"Let the show begin," River murmured quietly under her breath. The TV turned on automatically.
AN: Well, there you go! Sorry if the characters seem a little OOC, but as I said before, this is my first story. I'll try to get the next chapter up by later today, but if not, then by tomorrow. Please leave reviews, constructive criticism, personal opinions, anything. It's all appreciated. Allons-y!
