This is just gonna be a little bit before my big story. Enjoy!
The gunshot rang out across the warehouse, shocking everyone out of their stupor. "Run!" yelled the Doctor, grabbing Amy behind him. Somewhere along the line, they collected Rory and River. As the shrieking of the little girl in the astronaut suit filled their ears, they fled the warehouse under the night sky. As soon as the Doctor deemed they had reached an acceptable distance, he stopped running and began panting.
"What was that about!" he turned on Amy, shouting. "You shot someone. You shot a living creature, a little girl! Why? WHY?" he screamed.
Amy wheezed out, "Because-" Rory gave her a sharp look. "Because," Amy finished lamely.
The Doctor kicked a rock violently. "You nearly took a life," he said, quieter and all the more scary for that. "You almost killed a little girl."
"I missed," Amy said defiantly.
"I can't look at you," he muttered.
"Before he starts in on one of his, 'I don't believe the stupidity of humans' speeches," River cut in, "I suggest we formulate a plan."
The Doctor straightened up. "Right. Well, obviously, we have to start running. We need to," he paused. "There's something bad, but I don't know what it is."
"How bout, every time something bad happens, we write it down," suggested Rory.
The Doctor clapped him hands together. "Brilliant! In order to find out more, we should also split up. River, you go north. Rory, you go south. Amy," he swallowed a little bit, still not looking at her. "You go west. Canton and I will go east." He stopped for a second. "Speaking of which, where's Canton?"
"I thought he was with you," River said slowly.
"Damn, damn, damn!" the Doctor swore. "Alright, I'll go back for him. But I expect you all to scatter."
River nodded, and brusquely headed out into the night. Rory and Amy shared a tender kiss, before he strode into the darkness. And Amy ran after the Doctor.
"Please, Doctor, look at me," she begged. "I know this must seem awful to you, but-"
"What part of scatter, Pond, do you not understand?" he said coldly.
She dragged his shoulders and spun him around to face her. Forced to finally look at her, he realized he couldn't drag his eyes from hers.
"One day it will all make sense," she said, voice choking. "I promise."
"Will you swear on something important?" he said softly.
She grabbed his bowtie and kissed him. When she pulled away, leaving him with a stunned expression, she murmured, "I swear on that." With that, she walked away into the dark.
The Doctor stood for a moment more before settling his shoulders. He kept on walking until he reached the abandoned warehouse. "Canton?" he whisper-yelled. "Canton?"
He tentatively pushed the door open. The place seemed totally empty. "Can-" he began, before something grabbed him.
