After a bit of a hiatus, The Doctor and Amara are back to finish their adventure with Fred's Tour and move onto other adventures!

Reviews are always appreciated and loved!

"So, where are we?" Amara asked. She and the Doctor had been standing just a few steps outside of the TARDIS and seemed to be standing on the edge of a deep canyon. It almost looked like the Grand Canyon to Amara, and she thought for a moment that they really were at the Grand Canyon, but he had such a wide grin as he took it all in that it was only a momentary doubt. He had the look of someone showing off something they thought was impressive. Aside from that, she had been to the Grand Canyon before and although it was an incredibly close match this place certainly wasn't it. For starters it was much, much larger than the Grand Canyon she remembered visiting.

"I thought I'd show you some of the wonders in your own backyard so here we are standing at the very edge of one of the largest naturally made canyons in your galaxy. It is five miles from top to bottom at its deepest and only a mere twenty miles across at the its narrowest. Just like the Grand Canyon back on Earth, it was carved by water and time alone. Your canyon is a teenager compared to this one, but it will look like this someday." He never lost his excitement throughout the lesson. She took a step closer to the rim of the ledge they were perched on and realized he was right. It went much deeper and stretched much farther than the Grand Canyon did. There was just the tiniest sliver of reddish brown on the farthest horizon across from them to suggest solid land again. Down in deep cut depths, she saw large expanses of water in between the plateaus and figured that must be the water that carved the canyon.

"All of time and space and you show me a giant hole in the ground." Amara couldn't help but tease and covered a snorted laugh when his head snapped down at her with a disgusted look.

"All of time and space…hole in the ground…" He muttered under his breath along with a few incoherent grumbles.

"Geez, I was only kidding." She rolled her eyes at his behavior. "This really does beat the pants off of the Grand Canyon, but I'm sure we didn't come here just to look at it. Right?" Any annoyance he had for her just the moment before was wiped clean away from his features as he looked back to her again with a secretive smile.

"Come along, Deegan!" He abruptly turned on his heels and walked off. Just as abruptly, he stopped a few steps later making her stop short as well. "No, no, doesn't quite work. Come along, Amara!" He said and started off only to stop once again a few steps later with an exasperated huff, looking back at her like it was her fault for something. "We'll work on that." And just like that he was off again.

Adorkable. Completely adorkable. She thought smiling after him.

They turned away from the rim a short distance and were winding through shallow cuts and rolls of the upper levels of the canyon. He kept going on as if he knew exactly where he was headed and she didn't doubt it. After all he seemed to know all about the area, but then again she also knew a fair amount about the Grand Canyon before actually going to it just from television shows on travel and geology. Up ahead, Amara could hear the chatter of other people before they finally exited the winding set in path dumping into a wide flat area once again overlooking an expanse of the canyon. From this view point, the canyon rift seemed to go on past the horizon. The area they had entered was obviously meant as a great lookout point and photo-op, and that's exactly what was happening. There were crowds of others doing what tourists normally do: wandering all over the place, talking, looking at brochures, taking pictures, and pointing at various things. They were all humanoid in overall physical makeup, but as if to prove she was not on Earth they were also all a little bit different. Some had different hues of skin tones. Some had odd protrusions and additions to their bodies. She even saw someone with scales down their arms.

"Come on." He called back to her when she had fallen several steps behind gawking at everyone.

"Where are we going exactly?" She asked coming up to his side again.

"Where else? To the bottom." He pointed ahead to where a group of people were milling around. As they got closer, she could see they were waiting in front of a wide flat open lift with railings. She smiled at the fact that they were taking a large elevator down the canyon walls and was even thankful for it.

"Tickets! Tickets!" A politely smiling woman in what looked like to Amara like an older fashioned tight powder blue airline stewardess uniform was calling as she wandered through the crowd. People were flashing their tickets left and right at her but she only looked at them and didn't actually take any. Amara glanced at the Doctor wondering if he had any for them. She hadn't seen him purchase any. He was just standing there waiting and smiling until she got closer before he reached into one of his pockets and pulled out what looked like a thin black beat up wallet. He flashed it open at her as she passed by; she took a brief look and then kept on going through the crowd apparently pleased with what she saw.

"What was that?" Amara questioned.

"Psychic paper." He said and handed it to her. She flipped it open and on a piece of paper she saw the ticket everyone else had and it was labeled for two people. "Well, slightly psychic. It will show nearly anything I want to. Very handy at times."

"I'll bet!" She kept looking it over. Next to a label for general admission into the canyon park and admission for the lift they were about to take to the bottom it also had an admission for something called Fred's Tour. "Fred's Tour?"

"You can't come here and not take Fred's Tour! Very informative and very private. Only about ten people at a time go with Fred and he can take us places that are not on the map." He explained taking the paper back just as everyone was starting to move forward onto the lift.

"You got on Fred's Tour!" A grandma of an older woman dressed in hiking gear next to the Doctor said when she overheard him. Without waiting for an answer, she turned and swat at the arm of an older man dressed in the same hiking gear standing on the other side of her. "I told you to book it when we booked the vacation! Not when we get here after it's all filled up!" The poor battered man apologized several times with promises to make sure they got on the list next time.

"Popular tour?" Amara asked the Doctor.

"You can't come here and not take Fred's Tour." He repeated.
