So the OC I am using here is what I have dubbed the 'badassed version of my friends'. She really belongs to Hexabyss, but we struck a deal ya know. Anyway, she is overpowered in Hex's version, but she will still retain a few abilities.
The following are her abilities: Teleportation, Dimension Travel, Time Travel and Gravity Control. Of course these will not be actual magic like the original, but instead, it will be technology.
Anyway~~On with the story!
"Another crack, eh? What happened this time?" A woman with striking orange hair, remarked while her boss, a rather portly man, drummed his fingers on his desk.
"Just a time crack, but it's been sending them Weeping Angels everywhere across the timeline!" He threw a stack of paper to the side and the woman looked at them lazily.
"Calm yourself, sir. Just tell me the time and Imma be there in a flash." She took a final drag of her cigarette before standing up.
He scribbled something down on a slip of paper and handed it to her, "That's where the signal is coming from."
"Hmm...Haven't been there in a couple years. Bound to be interesting." She swiped her hand down and a crack appeared in the room.
She stepped into the crack and a second later it closed with a small 'Ding!' as if it were an elevator.
Elsewhere.
Vanessa stepped out of her crack and stared at her surroundings before closing the crack. She lit one of her cigarettes and began walking toward the time crack.
The forest was infested with those weird angels, but they didn't deter the young woman. She countered their movements by use of teleportation and a gun meant to take out their kind.
She blew one of her orange locks out of her face as she put away her gun, "Well, that worked better than I thought."
"Who's there?" A female voice echoed off of the trees and the woman tilted her head.
"Hmph...we have a live one." A screen went over her eyes and she immediately saw the person sitting on the ground.
Vanessa deactivated the screen and strolled over to the person, "Eh? Don't you think it's a bit dumb to be sitting in a forest that is infested by weird angels? And why are your eyes closed?" She squatted down to the woman's level and peered at her in mild interest.
"I was told to stay here, but everyone else went to inspect that crack." The woman said, still not opening her eyes.
"Well, shit. They walked just straight into a time crack. They could be anywhere by now. You didn't answer me on the eye thing though." Vanessa groaned at the first part before pointing at the young woman.
"Why should I tell you if I don't know who you are?" The woman said, her voice filled with suspicion.
"Ahhh, right. Names Vanessa Nightwood, time bounty hunter and occasional dimension savior. I was sent here to seal the crack since those dumb angels have been being launched anywhere from the cave age to year 200,000. It's a real mess." Vanessa answered casually while pulling her gun and shooting an angel that was approaching them in the flickering light.
"Tell me about it. The Doctor said that there was an angel trying to take over me." The woman mumbled, and Vanessa winced.
"Had a friend who was possessed by one of em', told me to shoot her. One hell of a bloody mess that was. Explaining to corporate why I put a bullet through her head." Vanessa said mainly to herself, but she helped the woman up. "Ah, they were ready to put one through my head as well."
"Is there anyway to fix this?" The woman asked, worry evident in her tone.
"Yeah, just lemme try something with that time crack. Maybe I can configure it to send all these dumbasses to Planet 538." Vanessa muttered with a grin.
"How will that help?" She didn't believe the bounty hunter and she sighed.
"Technically, they were thrown into a different dimension. I specialize in dimension caretaking, odd I know. But, those angels were sent to our parallel dimension, so it's still in my department. Anyway, they are then erased from your memory, as if they never existed. Plus, Planet 538 is a trash planet, the gases are near poisonous there. Had to wear a goddamn gas mask." Vanessa explained, folding her arms in amusement. She had begun to walk away when the woman jumped.
"Don't leave me here!" The woman yelled and grabbed onto Vanessa's arm.
Vanessa sighed, "Geez, fine I'll help ya find your doctor, don't pull." The visor covered her eyes again and she zoomed in on something in the distance. She grabbed the woman by the arm and lifted her visor. "Alright! I got a match, now we just gotta teleport there!"
"What do you mean 'teleport'?!" The woman exclaimed, a panicked look covering her face.
"One of my abilities, princess. Now, do ya wanna find him or what?" Vanessa interjected with an impatient look.
"Well yes, but-!" She was cut off when they disappeared in a blue flash.
Vanessa reappeared several times while dodging the slowly advancing angels, "I love doing this!" She exclaimed happily as she blinked wildly around the area.
They landed in a bush and Vanessa laughed loudly as she pulled the woman up, "Ah, that was a good workout! Anyway, your little doctor should be right around that corner, princess."
"I...can't exactly see where the corner is." The woman trailed off and Vanessa groaned in annoyance.
"Fine, I'll be your seeing eye dog. Kay?" Vanessa didn't give her a chance to respond and pulled her along.
Vanessa had a rather perturbed look on her face as she rounded the corner, Who'd think I'd be meeting this guy so soon? Just woke up from a time capsule a month ago and I'm getting this shit thrown at me. She thought, thinking back to when she awoke that fateful day.
Flashback!
Steam flowed out from the tube as a naked woman stepped out. Her wild orange hair and confused blue eyes were the first things they saw.
"Where am I…?" She mumbled, her thick British accent catching them momentarily off guard.
Everyone had expected a different accent for the last female of an alien race, but she seemed eerily normal for her rarity.
A scientist grabbed her hand as she stumbled, "We found you drifting through space a long time ago. I would say a couple thousand years. Do you know your name?" He asked, and she paused while studying her surroundings.
"I'm...not really sure." She mumbled, clearly confused by the situation.
A female scientist walked up, "You shall be called Vanessa then, okay?" The newly named Vanessa gave them a shaky nod. "Alright, you are from the planet Gallifrey, now destroyed I'm afraid, and you are the only female surviving. We know of one other Gallifreyan, but he is quite elusive."
"Will...Will I ever meet him?" Vanessa asked, a hopeful look on her face.
The female scientist nodded, "With what you will be doing, you will definitely meet him."
"What will I be doing?" Vanessa asked, curious at what her new job could be.
The scientist smiled, "You will be repairing dimensions and time cracks."
Flashback end!
Vanessa stopped as soon as she saw the man using his little sonic screwdriver on an angel that was trying to strangle a man.
She fluidly pulled out her gun and shot the angels head off, "Damn angels getting cocky, eh? Should've brought the grenades if I knew we were this infested. Anyway, I got the little-possessed princess." She pushed the woman towards the man as the soldier fell to the ground.
"And who are you, might I ask?" The man holding the sonic screwdriver asked, an easy-going smile on his face. Vanessa could see that he was ready to attack her if she proved dangerous.
"Dimension Agent Vanessa Nightwood. Got called out since we have a class nine-time crack that is throwing these dumbass angels into a parallel dimension. Little princess here, however, caught my attention and I teleported her here. Still have to go configure that time crack though, otherwise, I might have to call an exterminator." Vanessa paused and pulled out another gun and shot two incoming angels in the heads, causing them to crumble instantly.
"Those guns...You can defeat these angels?" The man asked, eyes tracing over her high-tech guns.
"Yup. Had to deal with a horde of em' on Planet 429 yesterday. Nasty critters were overrunning the planet so badly I had to suck em' all into a void. Oof, that was a lot of papers to deal with." She rubbed her forehead in annoyance at the thought.
In a move that surprised his companions, he slammed her against a nearby tree. His eyes told her everything, he knew what she was.
How?
Hell if she'd know.
She smirked, "'Bout time we meet Doctor, I awoke a month ago and I'm only now seeing you." She said, her bemused grin unnerving him.
"How are you alive?" He said in his quiet, yet oddly commanding voice.
"According to the scientists, they found me in a time capsule butt naked. Said I was floating away for a couple thousand years." She responded, mirroring his tone and his facial expression.
The woman with blonde hair finally pulled him away from her, "Why did you do that? She saved Amy from probably dying." She whispered so that Amy didn't hear them.
"She's a Gallifreyan." The Doctor said lowly, only loud enough for the two women to hear him.
"You're kidding." The blonde woman mumbled.
"Last female...naturally born that is." She added the last part so quietly that the Doctor barely heard her.
"'Naturally' born?" He looked at her and she winced before looking away.
"I am not allowed to tell, otherwise I'll probably end up like one of their science experiments." She whispered, a rare look of fear displayed on her face.
Before he could say anything, she pulled out her gun and shot two angels that were heading for Amy. "Here," She tossed the Doctor a rather odd looking pen, "Press it if you need anything, I'll teleport if you do. Now, I gotta go configure that time crack, before more of these damn angels up this situation to class ten."
The woman disappeared in a blink and a blue fleeting light dodged several angels in the distance.
With Vanessa.
She reappeared in front of the crack and she brought her hand down. The action caused a hologram to appear with the readings of the time crack. The woman whistled in approval as she began typing several things out when an idea suddenly came to mind.
She closed the holograms and went into a meditative state. Telepathy had always come easy for the woman, she could only hope that the Doctor had done such a technique. She had always been told that it was something she could do, but only with another of her kind.
"Doctor." She began as she heard a small barely noticeable gasp. "Yes, I know how to do this. I need you to do something, I know you are on a ship right now. Search for something called a 'Gravity Field'. I would do this myself, but my technology can only reach so far."
"How are you doing this? You've only been out for a month." He responded clearly and precisely. He had obviously talked through telepathy before since he sounded as if he was rather busy.
"I do not know, I was merely winging it. Didn't think it would work. Anyway, click the pen once you have activated the field and I'll teleport and regulate your gravity. I've set the time crack for a trash planet in the parallel dimension." Vanessa said coolly as if she had done this a million times.
"If the trash planet that I'm thinking of is the one you're talking about, then I'm on board with this." He let out a quiet laugh and she smirked.
"Planet 538, aka the planet where gas masks are a part of everyday culture. Now, find that button." She ended the telepathy stream and stood up with a dazed look.
"Huh...not bad for winging it." She mumbled and drew both of her guns as her gear teleported her.
Upon reappearing, her gear glowed a bright red and she stood unaffected by the gravity change. "Nice work, Doctor. Activate regulation." She stated while firing at the last few angels.
The gravity shifted back to normal and the woman cracked a grin, "Alright, already sending my report back to my boss so that he doesn't think I've been skipping out again!" She gave herself a thumbs up and brought her hand down.
Another crack opened and she was one foot in when the Doctor grabbed her wrist. She looked back at him with a raised eyebrow, "What is it?"
"You aren't going anywhere. At least until you explain everything, I can tell you know more than you're letting on." His face told her everything. He was dead serious.
She sighed before poking her head into the crack, "Tell the boss I'm out on an excursion!" She screamed and jumped back into the room while the crack closed with a 'ding'.
They were in a stare-off. Vanessa with her bored look and the Doctor with his calculative look as he studied every inch of her blue eyes. "Why is it that I've never had red hair and you get it on your first try?" He asked, a little too seriously for Vanessa as the woman broke the staring as she fell back in raucous laughter.
"That's the first thing you ask?! Out of everything you could've asked, you asked that?" Her laughter was infectious and he found himself chuckling.
"What? I'm serious. I'm on my eleventh and you get it on your first life. Always wanted red hair…" He trailed off and she giggled into her hand.
"I'm told I look like a Scottish model, so at least you don't get modeling contracts whenever you go to Earth." She joked and pushed her hair out of the way. "Alright, now ask me a real question."
"You mentioned that you're the last 'natural' born female, what are the scientists up to?" And he asked the one question she told him not to.
"Ugh, you're killing me here. From what I have seen they are splicing genes together, some of mine and some of a human's. Not sure what they are attempting to do, stupid if you ask me, but they are the ones that are screwing with unknown DNA." She said in frustration, pursing her lips and propping her head up.
Amy entered the main control room and stared at the two, "So, what are you two up to?" She asked a hidden layer of jealousy in those big eyes.
"Calm down, princess, he's just playing 20 Questions with me. Plus he was complaining how he never got red hair." She flipped her hair dramatically in his face in obvious amusement.
"Quit that!" He stated while hitting her in the shoulder lightly.
"Aw hell no, I'm gonna keep doing this until one of us ain't here no more." She exclaimed, unaffected by the whack.
She strutted to the side and pulled up a hologram, "Hmph, 8.1?! I deserve a freaking ten for that masterpiece Sir. portly! I exterminate your pest problem and you give me an eight, my god you're ridiculous." She yelled as Amy could imagine the woman's hair exploding in flames.
"What's so bad with an eight?" Amy asked eyebrow raised as Vanessa wrote a letter containing so many swear words, it would make a sailor blush.
"I practically did the exact same job last week and got a ten. But he literally throws this shitty review like a baboon at the stinking zoo. If I wanted to, I could spill his secrets to the whole world and timeline, but I've been told to keep quiet. Ugh!" She raged for several more minutes and Amy looked at the Doctor in question.
"Just mood swings." He answered, his eyes following the raging woman.
"Mood swings? Like pregnancy mood swings?" She tilted her head in confusion.
The redhead didn't exactly look pregnant, but she was an alien so it's in the air.
"Who knows, if those scientists are doing what they are planning, it could very well be that. Or she could just be in that phase." The Doctor answered, walking over to where the woman was.
Vanessa looked up at him and her demeanor changed almost immediately, "You're giving me that look again. What do you need this time?"
"Are those scientists experimenting on you? Directly on you?" His question caught her off guard and she looked away.
"...Somewhat, yes. The gene splicing, however, is done in a separate lab. I don't really know beyond that, but I'm always scheduled for testing." She appeared to be troubled by her own words and she looked at the Doctor with fear and realization in those big blue eyes, "Oh my god...they-they can't be doing that!"
She sank down to the floor her expression frozen in a look of horror, "Just as I thought, they've been doing something to her." He muttered and bent down to look at the woman, "Come on, get up. We have to at least see what's going on."
She looked up at him, her eyes widening even more before they rolled back into her head. "And she's gone into shock." He picked her up and walked down the hallway of the Tardis.
Amy blinked in shock for a second before running after him, "What are you going to do?"
He swiftly turned around and nearly knocked her over, "I'm going to see what they've done. If they meant for her to be a human incubator for a hybrid, her life could be in critical danger." He said, his all too serious voice startling the woman.
Timeskip.
Her eyes flew open, a wild look in her eyes as she looked around the room. It looked like a bedroom she had stayed at when she was in Germany. For a second she thought she had teleported there but then realized that she had fainted upon hearing that she could potentially be carrying a hybrid. She was still in the Tardis.
She looked to her right and saw a neatly scribbled note hanging on the wall, "When you are awake, go to the main control room, I'll be there-The Doctor."
She pulled away the sheets and saw that she was in a white sweater dress, shrugging she got up and slipped on her black flats before walking out into to the hallway.
She heard a couple voices, one being Amy the other being a male. She walked into the control room and saw the Doctor walking up the steps. "Good to see you're awake." He said, a smirk on his face.
The male she didn't recognize, turned around and just about fell over, "W-Who's that?" He whispered to Amy.
"She's a Dimensional Bounty Hunter, she's just like the Doctor. We picked her up since he wanted to ask her a few questions." Amy whispered back, annoyed that the man was attracted to the bombshell of a woman.
"You'll have to tell me the results of the tests later. Something tells me you're going to...Italy." Vanessa said, one hand on her hip and the other tucked away a lock of hair.
"You'll just have to find out." He said and set the Tardis into motion.
Minutes later, they landed and Vanessa was the second out. She licked her finger and held it up, "Venice...Somewhere around the 1600's."
"Founded by refugees running from Attila the Hun. It was just a collection of little wooden huts in the marsh, but became one of the most powerful cities in the world. Constantly being invaded, constantly flooding... constantly... Just beautiful! Oh, you gotta love Venice. And so many people did. Byron, Napoleon, Casanova. Oooh, that reminds me." He stopped his rambling to check his watch, "1580. Pretty close, Vanessa. Anyway, that's all right. Casanova doesn't get born for 145 years. Don't want to run into him. I owe him a chicken." He finished and Rory looked at him in shock.
"You owe Casanova a chicken?" He asked and Vanessa snickered at his dumbfounded look.
"Long story. We had a bet." The Doctor responded and the orangette looked back at Rory.
"That's nothing, I made a bet with a prime minister. I owe him a date, and I'm rainchecking till the day I die." She giggled and he jaw dropped at her.
An official dressed in black stepped out in front of them and looked at the Doctor, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Papers, if you please. Proof of residency, current bill of medical inspection."
The Doctor held up a piece of paper that Vanessa recognized as Psychic Paper and the man took it, "There you go, fella. All to your satisfaction I hope."
"I am so sorry, Your Holiness. I didn't realize." The man bowed.
"No worries. You were just doing your job. Sorry, what exactly is your job?" He asked, raising an eyebrow in interest.
"Checking for aliens, visitors from foreign lands what might bring the plague with them." The official answered and Amy sighed.
"Oh, that's nice. See where you bring me?" She whacked him on the arm, "The Plague!"
"Don't worry, the Plague isn't in the city. Can't say the same for the rest of Europe." Vanessa explained and the official nodded.
"Correct, we're under quarantine here, no-one comes in, no-one goes out, and all because of the grace and wisdom of our patron, Signora Rosanna Calvierri." The official said.
"How interesting. I heard the plague died out years ago." The Doctor said and Vanessa looked at the official in confusion.
"Has it resurfaced?" She asked, her face visible with concern.
"Yes. Signora Calvierri has seen it with her own eyes. Streets are piled high with bodies, she said." The official said and walked off to question others.
"I'm getting my 'something is up' twitch." Vanessa mumbled and followed the Doctor when he began walking away.
