Prologue
"What's happening?" Jenny asked, looking up from the shattered glass ball where gold and green gas floated up into the air and looked at her dad, who stood next to her.
"The gases," The Doctor said, "will escape and trigger the terraforming process."
"What does that mean?"
"It means a new world." The Doctor answered, he grinned at Jenny who started to giggle with happiness, until a gun shot was heard. Jenny, Donna and Martha all turned their heads to look at General Cobb who was holding a gun; Jenny turned her head to the Doctor seeing him lay upon the floor, in pain. Jenny's eyes began to well up with tears; she kneeled down beside him, shaking her head.
"No!" she screamed, tears falling down her cheeks. Martha and Donna, both looked at the scene in front of them shocked. Tears burning their eyes; Martha quickly ran to the Doctor's side to check the wound and his pulse. Donna stood behind her, frozen, her hand clasped over her mouth.
"Is he going to be alright?" Donna asked, choking on her tears.
"Jenny?" The Doctor choked out.
Jenny nodded solemnly, "Dad, c'mon, a new world, remember?"
"Why isn't he regenerating? Doctor!" Martha looked at him, pleadingly, why wasn't he regenerating? It was like the Master, just a bullet, he could just regenerate but he wasn't. The Master chose not to regenerate, is that what the Doctor was doing? The three girls looked at the Doctor, sobbing silently.
When the Doctor closed his eyes, Jenny got up and looked at General Cobb. Her eyes dark and cold, tears streaming down her cheeks. Martha and Donna stood, looking at her, sympathetically. Jenny walked towards General Cobb and stole the gun out of his hands and pointed it at his head. Jenny looked down at him, seeing the fear in his eyes, she dropped the gun.
She looked at Martha and Donna, who where sobbing next to the Doctor's body. She then turned around and stalked out of the room that they were in. Martha and Donna looked at each other then to the Doctor's lifeless body then followed Jenny out.

"This was his ship." Martha said, entering the TARDIS. Jenny looked around, noticing it was bigger on the inside. She walked to the console, then gently stroking a hand on the edge of the console. Donna and Martha both stood at the door watching her. They knew Jenny must be so confused of what to do.
"How do we get home?" Donna asked Martha in a silent whisper. Martha just shook her head and shrugged.
"Something's talking to me in my head." Jenny suddenly said. Both Donna and Martha looked at her, with a confused look.
"What did you just say?" Martha asked, walking towards her.
"In my head, a woman is talking to me…she says she's the ship."
"It's the TARDIS."
"She knows about dad, she felt him slip away…it hurt her." Jenny paused listening to the humming of the TARDIS inside her head. Her eyes grew wider, with shock. Both Martha and Donna noticed her surprised and shocked reaction.
"What is it?" Donna asked walking towards Jenny and standing next to Martha.
"She says she'll teach me to fly her." Jenny said; she looked up at Martha and Donna, "I can take you home."

After three tries of trying to land in the right place, right time, and right planet, the TARDIS finally materialized in front of Martha's home. Donna and Martha walked out of the TARDIS looking around, pleased they finally made it. Donna turned to Martha, she didn't say anything for a while, unsure what to say.
"What a time to come back?" Martha said sarcastically, taking the words right out of Donna's mouth.
Donna pulled a slight smile. "Yeah,"
When the TARDIS door closed they looked to see Jenny standing in front of the TARDIS, looking up at the sky.
"What you going to do?" Martha asked Donna turning back to her.
"Can't just leave her, she's so lost…maybe I'll stay with her for a while; she'll need a friend with her, until she gets use to flying the TARDIS right." Donna answered.
"Yeah, think she'll like that." Martha opened her arms and embraced Donna. She turned around and walked to her door, she stopped and waved towards Donna, she then looked at Jenny who stood still standing in front of the TARDIS. She gave a light smile before entering her home.

"Now what?" Jenny asked, once she and Donna were back in the TARDIS. "Do you want to go home? If you give me an hour and a half I could get you there…or near there."
Donna shook her head. "Nah, I'm going to stay, we can still do everything the Doctor did, just you and me."
"What did he do? Did he always save planets, rescue civilizations; defeat creatures…run a lot?" she asked.
"Yeah he did," Donna smiled.
"And we're going to do that?"
"If you want?"
Jenny didn't answer for a few minutes; she felt a smile tug onto her face. She turned to the console and started pressing random buttons. She looked up to Donna. "Let's go then."

Back on Messaline, Cline stood over the limp body of the Doctor. After a while of staring at the body, he pulled a cover of his face. He was about to leave the room when he heard movement. He twirled on his heels back around to come face to face with the dead body of the Doctor.
"How-how did you…" He stuttered.
"I was only asleep, weird, whatever was in that bullet, only courses Time Lords to be in a lot of pain, and they go to sleep." The Doctor said cheerfully. "Now, where is everyone? You go to sleep and everyone thinks your dead, happens all the time with me."
"I'm sorry, but, you're friends and Jenny they've left…in your ship." Cline said.
The Doctor's smile disappeared, "What do you mean, left in my ship?"
"I mean, they left in that blue box, apparently, Jenny was able to talk to the ship and the ship somehow taught her to fly it."
The Doctor's eyes grew wide, he began to pace the room thinking of a way out, but there was none. In the back of his mind he could still feel the TARDIS. And that's when he thought of an idea. "Shuttles!"
The Doctor ran past Cline and down to the shuttle room. He grabbed out his sonic screwdriver from his jacket pocket and used it on the door to one of the shuttles. "Okay let's see if I can fly." The Doctor said as he was looking at the control panel. Pressed a few buttons, and after while the ship began to take off the ground. "And off we go."
