The Lost City of Z

'Just out of interest why are we here again' Jenny moans, as she watches the Doctor run happily between the ruins.

'You know you won't get anything out of him don't you' laughed Ellena, as she approached Jenny, a smile spreading across her face. Ellena was a beautiful girl of 19. She was about 5f5 with frizzy brown hair that reached her shoulders. She was wearing a simple white blouse, a pair of jeans and flats.

'Its just one big playground to him' she added, as she ran her hand across one of the old pillars, which where placed all around the giant building. She watched the Doctor run up and down the side of the building, which had a gapping big hole in the side, looking at all of the pieces of the building that was on the ground.

The ruins, which where located in the Amazon rainforest, where surrounded by futuristic building. The main part of the ruins was a large temple, much like a pyramid in size and shape although there was a pointed tower in the middle of a slopping roof, which was half destroyed. Within the temple was a maze of corridors and rooms. Many believed that there had once been traps and animals inside to stop intruders. The building itself had been built thousands of years ago, when there was still a rainforest.

...

Running along a narrow corridor, a woman took a quick look behind her as she heard the creature gaining on her. Using her torch, she continued down the dark corridor, her frizzy blonde hair, flying free behind her. However, she came to a stop when she came to a cross road. Not knowing which way would take her to safety; she gambolled and took the left corridor. Running as fast as she could, she made her way down until however she saw that it was a dead end. Looking back behind her she knew that she would not have time to turn back and go the other way. Feeling around on the wall in front of her she could find no leaver or any loose bricks that may be hiding a hidden door. Knowing that she had no other choice, she pulled out a gun from her hoister. Changing the setting so that a steady stream of power would be emitted, she began to write on the wall, as quickly as she could, hoping that his journeys would eventually bring him here. As either way company would soon arrive.

...

'So what are these anyway' Ellena asked, as the Doctor came running back to them a joyful smile on his face.

'This, my lovely girls, is The Lost City of Z. Isn't it amazing. Some of this writing may even be as old as high Gallifreyan. Weeeeeeeeelll may be not but it's definitely old. Come on you two', he grabbed each girl by the hand, dragging them to the side of the temple, before entering the hole which had been blown away. Stepping over the remaining rumble, the Doctor looked up and down the long corridor which they now stood in.

'Have I ever told you girls about The lost City of Z' he smiled, continuing before they could answer. 'According to legend The City of Z was a lost civilisation deep within the Amazon rainforest. Many have also called it El Dorado, The City of Gold. Apparently it held so much gold that if you looked at it you would be so entranced, that you would never leave. Many explores went looking for it but none ever returned. Isn't it brilliant' he smiled at both of the girls, before noticing that there were marks on the floor and began examining them.

'God he such a kid in a candy store' Jenny laughed, as she and Ellena walked down the corridor, leaving the Doctor to examine the floor.

However, they had not walked fair before they came to a dead end.

'This place really is like a maze.' Jenny commented.

Ellena was starring intensely at the wall for she noticed that there was some kind of writing burnt into it, half way down. Reaching her hand out, she wiped it over the writing, getting rid of some of the dirt that had covered it. By doing this she was able to make out some of the letters. There also appeared to be a set of numbers underneath the writing.

'Jenny look at this. There's writing on the wall' Ellena pointed at the writing.

Jenny stared at the writing, most of it had faded but some of it was still readable.

'Can you make any of it out' Jenny asked

'Yeah I think the second word is help and the set of co-ordinates underneath, is 1283/237/1445 which I believe is a year, date and time. But I can't make out the first word' she commented before wiping away more of the grime..

'Dad come look at this' Jenny shouted at him down the corridor.

'What is it' he asked as he bounded towards them.

'Ellena's found some writing on the wall, it's English. It says help' she tells him before pointing at it.

'hhhhmmm,' he thought to himself as he looked at the writing on the wall. The girls where right, but who wrote it. The indigenous people of this time would not know the language, so who left the massage. The strange thing was that there was a set of co-ordinates, as if someone was trying to attract some ones attentions. But who. Well there was only one way to find out.

' Well then lets go investigate shell we' he grinned before sprinting back down the corridor, the girls hurrying behind him, excited at the prospect of anther adventure.

...

Hurrying to finish the message on the wall, the women could hear the creatures' long nails scratching along the floor, as it closed in on her. She could hear its breathing increasing and becoming louder as it approached her. Turning so that her back was against the wall, she shined her torch, down the corridor, and saw a glimpse of the creature as it moved out of the light. She knew that the creature would not approach her due to the light, but it would still wait, patient until the light ran out. She just hoped that he would be here soon, as otherwise, things would get nasty, for the creature knew that she was cornered.

...

Rushing through the Tardis doors the Doctor chucked his tweed jacket on the jump seat before beginning to set the co-ordinates. The girls appeared moments after him, eager expressions smeared over their faces, as they began to help the Doctor with the controls.

The Doctor smiled, as he watched the two girls pilot the Tardis with him. He watched as they worked together, pushing buttons and pulling levers, to keep the Tardis on route. Sometimes it seemed that he was not needed at all, he could properly put his feet up and rest while they took him to their next destination. However this was most definitely not him. So he helped, were he could. The smile was however short lived on the Doctor for he saw that Ellena was about to push the button which would turn the brakes of, taking away his lovely Tardis noise.

'Ellena no' he shouted at her but too late, she had pressed the button.

'Oh that's so unfair. I love that noise' he mumbled

'I heard that. Grow up Dad, you know it's not meant to make that noise' both Jenny and Ellena sniggered, as his face changed to that of surprise at being told to grow up.

Before he could reposed the Tardis landed, minus the noise, and the Doctor began to walk to the door, wanting to get out of the situation as fast as possible, before they started gagging up on him. However he never reached the door.

...

The Tardis began to materialise in front of the women, as the creature was about to strike. She was surprised actually, for it had made her jump, the Tardis materialised minus the noise. Seeing her chance, for at this point the creature was the other side of the Tardis. Flinging open the doors, she rushed inside, before closing them, making sure that they where locked, she didn't want to leave any chances. Finally feeling that she was safe she lent her back against the door, sighing and shaking slightly from the adrenaline running through her. That had been to close.

...

The Doctor had not even reached the door before a woman rushed in, quickly shutting the door behind her and signed, as she lent against the door, shaking slightly. From outside the Tardis, a loud screeching noise started up, before a bagging started on the Tardis walls from the outside. Upon hearing this Doctor sprinted back to the controls, setting the Tardis to get them out of there. Jenny and Ellena stood starring at the women. She was wearing camouflage shorts and shirt, both of which where covered in rips and dirt. They watched as the women made her way up to the controls, carefully picking up the Doctor's tweed jacket, before sitting down on the white leather jump seat, and placing the jacket around her shoulders. All of this time, the Doctor had been watching her, with an expression of both sadness and happiness. Looking up at the Doctor, a small smile spread across her lips.

'Hello sweetie, you always pick the best moments to turn up'

'River'
