The grated metal floor clicked underfoot as he walked around. Throwing his overcoat over one of the Tardis's console room's supporting arches he walked over to the console down a lever. The soft green lights of his ship lit up the Doctor's smile as he readied the Tardis for departure.

Outside Rose and Peter stood with Mickey and Jackie in the large concrete playground the Tardis was parked in.

"Have you got everything?" Jackie asked Rose as she helped her put on her large rucksack.

"I've got everything don't worry" Rose reassured her.

"Be careful" Jackie told her as they hugged.

"I will do and you'll have to call cousin Mo about that..." Rose began to say.
"Oh never mind Mo" Jackie said before she turned to Peter.

"You take care too sweetheart wherever home is" She told him as she also gave him a hug.
"I will and thanks again for letting me stay over the holidays" He thanked her whilst Rose went over to Mickey.
"I'll see you soon ok?" She asked.

"Yeah course," He said with smile, though sounded as if he wasn't finished. "Listen, I know it's hard with the the Doctor but..." He said insecurity with a nod towards Peter, who was still talking with Jackie. Rose laughed a little.
"Don't worry we're just dropping him off home," She said. "Why? Your not jealous of him are you?" She asked. Mickey glanced over at Peter again.
"No, course not" He eventually replied, though didn't sound convicting as Rose rolled her eyes. Mickey always tended to see any good looking guy that came near her as a threat to their relationship. She gave him a quick kiss to reassure him just as the Tardis's engines sounding, indicating the ship was ready to taken off.

"Ok we're going now, I love you, I love you" Rose said to Mickey and Jackie. "Ready?" She then asked Peter as he put on his own rucksack and picked up his other bag and came over.

"Lets go" He said with a smile as they headed over and into the Tardis. Following Rose into the ship Peter felt his jaw drop as he saw the inside of the huge room. The Doctor was casually leaning against the console.

"Welcome to the Tardis, it's bigger on the inside..." He began to say.

"Than it is on the outside," Peter finished his sentence as he looked around. "It's in your UNIT file" He quickly explained. "But still I never imagined..." He said, trailing off in amazement as he followed Rose up to the console as they put their bags on the floor. The Doctor smiled at his wonder as he pulled down a lever. Mickey and Jackie watched from outside as the Tardis de-materialised from sight before they started heading back to their flats.

The Tardis whirred and groaned as it flew through the time vortex, though the console room remained surprisingly steady under the Doctor's control whilst Rose was sat on the nearby moth eaten fabric chairs and Peter watched from the padded platform that ran all the way around the wall of the room, halfway between the floor and celling.
"So," Rose said, turning to Peter. "You can change into a wolf then? How?" She asked.

"Em, I just can I can't explain it, just if I want to I do" He replied. "But my abilities stay with me all the time" He added.

"You mean that claw thing?" Rose asked.

"Not just that, I can hear and smell as good as a wolf, I was always stronger, faster and could deal with cold weather and heal better than any human I ever met, it's like the wolf merged with me and I with it" He explained as best he could as he jumped down from the platform. "Here feel my hand" He said, holding it out. Slowly Rose felt the top of his hand.
"That's really warm, it's almost feverish" She said, feeling the heat coming from his skin.

"That's my normal body temperature, stops me feeling cold and from overheating too" He said.

"Are all Saiyans wolves or...?" Rose then asked. Peter seemed unsure.

"Erm, I don't know" He replied.

"Each family changes into something different, normally you can tell what by their name is or how they look" The Doctor explained.

"Yeah I guess that makes sense, my name Argent means silver in most languages and always seems to be tied to wolf legends" Peter said.
"Isn't silver meant to be harmful to wolves thought?" Rose asked. Peter laughed.

"Pure mythology, it may be tied to the legends but it's complete nonsense" He dismissed with a wave of his hand. "And all that howling at the full moon, please, it's ridiculous" He said.

Knowing what he was and what he could turn into, Rose couldn't help but notice, like the Doctor had said, his features look wolfish. His bold grey eyes were the same shade as a wolf's fur and seemed to have a silvery tint to them whist his canine teeth looked larger than a humans as they caught on his lips slightly every time he grinned. He was also quite well built with strong muscles and had a habit of ruffling his thick black hair every so often whilst he nose would flare every so often, as if he was constantly sniffing the air. Her thoughts were interrupted by the Doctor as he flicked a few more switches on the console.

"Right then, here we go" He said as he brought the Tardis into it's final landing approach. Rose knew they were landing as the ride got much more bumpy and unstable before it all came to a rest.

The Doctor quickly checked the console's screen.
"Sorry Peter we've had to make a slight from Vegeta, I've just a urgent message" He explained as he grabbed his overcoat and ran over to the door.
"No problem, so where are we then?" Peter asked. The Doctor grinned.
"Further than any of us have ever gone before" He said. "Come on!" He called as he opened the door and stepped outside with Rose and Peter excitedly following him out. As they stepped outside, however, they found themselves both freeze in amazement from what they could see from the top of the grassy hill they'd landed on.

"It's the year five billion and twenty three, we're in the Galaxy M87 and this, this is New Earth" The Doctor said as they all looked out at a huge city with sleek and futuristic skyscrapers that lay on the opposite side of a large stretch of calm water from them. Overhead hundreds of flying cars ribboned across the sky in traffic lane like patterns.

"That's just, that's just" Rose tried to say. "That's just..." She tried to say again but just ended up laughing in here amazement whilst Peter, who'd only ever known Earth, could only stare and smile.

"Not bad, not bad at all" The Doctor said, taking in the fresh air.

"That's amazing, the year five billion?" Peter managed to say.

"And twenty three" The Doctor added, looking out at the city.

"Oh I'll never get use to this, never," Rose said. "Different ground beneath my feet, different sky" She said, jumping up and down on the grass a little.

"Why can I smell apples?" Peter asked as he sniffed the air, looking round confused as there were no visible trees or apples around them. The Doctor bent down and picked a few blades of grass from the ground and stood back up, sniffing them.

"Apple grass" He explained with a grin, causing Rose and Peter to laugh. "Come on" The Doctor added as he led them down the grassy slope and towards the city. They were unaware, however, that they were being watched. The Doctor, Rose and Peter were being filmed and the live recordings were being sent to a red sphere shaped screen. The man watching them was dressed in hospital scrubs and had very pale skin and was lacking any hair or distinctive features apart from the plain dotted patterns tattooed onto his skin.

"Human, she's pure blood human" He said excitedly. "Closer, closer" He ordered.

On the same hill as the Doctor, Rose and Peter a small four legged robotic spider with a red camera eye for a head followed them stealthily as it used the tall grass blades as cover to spy on them as it filmed. The Doctor, Rose and Peter had found a flat bit of grass and had all sat down, with Rose and the Doctor sitting on his large over coat.

"So the year five billion, the sun expands and the old Earth gets roasted," The Doctor explained as they watched the cars fly over them on their way to and from the city.

"That was our first date" Rose reminded him.
"We had chips" The Doctor remembered. "So anyway, planet gone, all rocks and dust but the human race lives on, spread out across the stars," He continued explaining. "Soon as the Earth burns oh they get all nostalgic, big revival movement, they find this place," He said. "Same size as the Earth, same air, same orbit, lovely, word goes out and the humans move in" He told Rose and Peter.

"What's the city called?" Rose asked, gazing at the skyline.
"New New York" The Doctor replied with a grin.

"Oh come on" Peter scoffed.

"It is, it's the city of New New York," The Doctor told them. "Strictly speaking it's the fifteenth New York since the original, that makes it New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New York" He said in one breath. "What?" He asked when he saw Rose laughing and smiling at him.
"Your so different" She said.
"New new Doctor" He joked. The spider was still filming them and was drawing closer so that it could see their faces. The pale man was still watching the image on the sphere and jumped when the other occupant of the room spoke. "Impossible I recognise that child" The woman's cold high held voice said as she watched. "Her face, show me her face" She ordered. The pale man nodded.

"Closer! Closer!" The man ordered the robotic spider, which began circling it's targets in order to get a better angle. "Face! Face!" The pale man ordered.

"Can we go and visit New New York? So good they named it twice" Rose asked the Doctor as they all stood up.

"Well, I thought we might go there first," He replied as he put his overcoat back on. He then pointed out a large white building that was built a little away from the main city, right on the coastline.

"Why? What is it?" Peter asked.

"Some sort of hospital, green moon on the side, that's the universal symbol for hospitals" The Doctor replied, indicating the green crescent moon sign on the side of the building. "I got this, message on the psychic paper, someone wants to see me" He said as he held up his psychic paper. The message 'Ward 26, Please Come'.

"Psychic paper?" Peter asked.
"Yeah, shows whatever you want it to" The Doctor quickly explained.

"Come on then, lets go buy some grapes" Rose joked as they headed off towards the hospital.

The robotic spider managed to film Rose's face as they walked away. The woman watching the images gasped when she saw it.

"Rose Tyler! I knew it! That dirty blond assassin" She hissed, though that's all the Lady Cassandra could do. She was nothing more than a piece of skin with eyes and a mouth, held upright by a metal frame.

"She's coming here mistress" The pale man said excitedly.

"Oh, this is beyond coincidence, this is destiny, at last I came be revenged" Cassandra vowed. Many floors above the Doctor, Rose and Peter had reached the reception doors of the hospital.

"Oh, I never liked hospitals, give me the creeps" the Doctor said as they walked into large sleek familiarly clinically clean foray.

"Bit rich coming from you" Rose said, stating the irony. Going past the front desk, all manned by white cloaked and fully faced veiled staff, who were also walking around among the visiting humans, they came to a large centre point of the hospital entrance hall. It was very tall and opened planned with all white decoration, only the green moon logo showing any signs of colour, and a minimalism design."Very smart, though not exactly NHS" Rose said. The Doctor looked around.

"No shop, I like the little shop" He said, sounding a little disappointed.

"You'd have thought this far in the future they'd have cured everything" Peter said

"The human race moves on but so does the viruses, it's an on going war" The Doctor replied as Rose and Peter paused to look around. That was then they saw one of the staff walk past with their veil removed. It was a cat. Seeing them stare at it as it bowed it's head politely as it walked past. The Doctor came back over.

"They're cats" Rose said, shocked.

"Now don't stare" The Doctor told them.

"On two legs" Peter added, equally stunned. The Doctor smiled.

"Well imagine what you look like to them," He said. "All pink and yellow, and wolf like," He said to Rose and then Peter. "That's where I'd put the shop, right there" He then said, pointing to a space over their shoulders before walking off again.

"At least I walk on four legs when I change" Peter whispered to Rose as he followed the Doctor, causing her to laugh as she also walked on.
