Doctor Who
"So let's hear it Spaceboy, where are we?" Donna demands to know as the Doctor lands the TARDIS.
"Donna Noble welcome to Paris?" Stepping outside they find that instead of a view of the Eiffel Tower they've ended up in the bar room of Stark towers, right at the end of a table of heroes.
"Well sorry to barge in I'm guessing this isn't Paris, bye." The Doctor turns around abruptly but the TARDIS doors slam shut.
"Never mind, nice to meet you I'm the Doctor and this is Donna Noble. Um when and where are we exactly? " The Doctor asks the group.
"Doctor, why are they all in super hero suits? Are they role playing or something?" Donna whispers to the Doctor.
"Um no, I don't think so."
"Is that the TARDIS? Doctor?" the longhaired blond man in Norwegian battle armor questions.
"Thor! How are you?" the Doctor remembers, "I haven't seen you since you were about yea high," he measures to his hip.
"It has been a while," Thor gets up and gives the Doctor a crushing hug. "You've regenerated since I've last seen you, what are you on?"
"10th, wow you've grown! How's Loki?" the Doctor asks wondering where his brother was.
"I'll explain later," Thor's expression grows darker.
"Hold on would someone please explain what the hell is going on?" The man in a red metal suit asks.
"Oh, you're Tony Stark! I've read about you," Donna butts in, not having spoken in a while.
"Really? Nice to meet you Mr. Stark," the Doctor smiles.
"Yes, you too, now what's going?"
"Yes, please explain Doctor," the man with the eye patch requests sarcastically.
The Doctor surveys the room, there's a man with brown hair curiously waiting for the events to play out. A lady with Donnas' hair color in a tight fitting suit, who keeps looking at the Doctor with hostile caution much like the look a man in a black vest and a quiver on his back is giving him. There is a man sporting an all red, white, and blue outfit that just screams America. Of course there's Thor, who he law saw a few regenerations ago, and last but not least the guy in all black with an eye patch at the head of the table.
"Okay, well first off I'm an alien, a Timelord actually, well the last of them, but that's not important. I travel through time and space in my TARDIS here, which stands for time and relative dimension in space. And this is my companion Donna, best listen to what she says. And I've known Thor for awhile, Asgard is a beautiful place by the way."
"Why are you here?" Eye patch asks.
"Now that's the question isn't it? I don't really know, we were expecting to land in Paris but the TARDIS brought us here, which means something, is going on. What's the date and where did we land exactly?"
"This is Stark Tower in New York and today is August 7, 2012. " Fury replies.
"New York!? We're in New York! Oh my goodness I've always wanted to come here. I've got to see the statue of liberty!" Donna exclaims to the Doctor.
"Yes, yes, I'll take you there later. Um, Mr. Stark?"
"Call me Tony."
"Do you mind if we stay for a while till we figure out why we're here at least?"
"Fine, I'll have JARVIS prepare a room for you," he agrees.
"Well Donna, we'll see Paris later, I have a feeling this is going to be very interesting."
Sherlock
"Oh, Sherlock, please remove the foot from the fridge, we put our food in there," John asks exasperated.
"It's an experiment," Sherlock explains, refusing to look up from his microscope.
"Of course it is," John closes the fridge with a sudden loss of appetite.
"Have you heard Mrs. Hudson talk about someone moving into the flat down stairs?"
"No, and I really don't care, now please leave me alone."
"Fine just don't scare them off for Mrs. Hudson's sake, she's been trying to get someone there for ages but you either make them cry or they slap you."
"Well it's not my fault their emotions get in the way."
"Sherlock," John says in a condescending tone.
"Fine."
"Thank you."
(Later in the day)
A knock breaks the silence of the flat, and John sets his book down to open the door since Sherlock is to engrossed in his "experiment" to even look up.
"Hello, we're your new neighbors. I'm Harry and this is Ginny."
Sherlock looks up and sees a couple full of contradictions. The man seems to be around 22 and the woman 21, both of them lack sleep because both have nightmares, the way he has his arm around her shows how they're used to comforting each other. Also both seem to be in a stance that would make it easy for them to reach for a weapon, but they haven't had the training John has to be in the army. They've already seen battle though, there's a few scars on both of them that have been healed for years, which means they must have been at the front lines of a hand to hand battle when they were quite young but the weapons used aren't ones Sherlock's at all familiar with.
No cell phones on either of them, moneys not a problem, and they aren't anti tech. Only the woman has lived in the country, so it's not being away from modern stuff they just simply don't use it or they don't have to. The place the man works at doesn't require the use of technology and still uses quills or fountain pens telling by the ink stains on his sleeves and hands.
"Sherlock...Sherlock," Johns voice cuts through his thoughts.
"Sorry this is Sherlock, Sherlock this is Harry and Ginny Potter," John looks at him warning not to say anything that could 'scare them off' as his friend puts it.
"Nice to meet you," and with that he turns back pretending now to be interested in the slide on the microscope so he could think about the new neighbors and so he wouldn't upset John by telling them their life story.
"Don't mind him, he'll warm up to you eventually." John continues to talk to them, mostly about cases, but he hears Harry say something about working with the government and decides to ask Mycroft about it later.
"Thank you for being nice," John tells him after they leave.
"Did you notice how odd they are?"
"Them? This is coming from the man who keeps a foot in the fridge."
"It's for science John. And yes, but I need time to figure them out."
John sighs knowing there's going to be nothing from Sherlock for a while and continues to read his book.
Author's Note: Any ideas for the monster(s) in New York would be very helpful and they all should meet by the next chapter. Captain Jack should also be making an appearance. Sorry for grammar mistakes.
