Hello! I consider this chapter a little short, sorry about that. It's my first full Doctor Who fanfic, but give me your true inputs. Thanks!
"Doctor, what does this do?" Amy asked, inspecting a red lever.
"Nothing, don't touch that!" he cried, swiftly moving her away from the control. The Doctor continued to whirl around, following some sort of pattern that Amy could never comprehend. Amy rolled her eyes and looked around the TARDIS. She still couldn't get over it: the size, the purpose, the design. It all blew her away, and she imagined it still would for some time.
"Well, if it doesn't do anything, guess it doesn't matter if I touch it, does it?" she said. The Doctor didn't reply. "And, what about this purple button? What does it do?"
"Are you going to keep doing this? Because I could stop right now and drop you off in Ancient Greece."
Amy groaned and wandered away from the controls. "I swear, you're more curious than Rose," the Doctor grumbled.
"Who is that?"
"Who's who?"
Amy walked around and attempted to follow the Doctor's hands, but gave up almost immediately. Her eyes and brain couldn't work that fast at the same time. "Rose, ya' moron. I keep hearing that name everywhere; you keep mentioning her."
"What? No I don't."
Amy smirked. "Yes you do. So who is she? Friend? Sister? Lover? Ooh, I sure do hope it's not all of the above-"
"No one." With a sharp jerk, the Doctor whipped his head toward Amy. His facial expression was stern, matching his serious tone. It was that one where his twisted hair hung just a bit over his eyes and his mouth was slightly open, like he was working on a frustrating puzzle that just wouldn't fit. The only sound was the whirring of the TARDIS and hushed clicks from the controls. His expression shouted to Amy that he was serious; this was not a subject to talk about. He shook his head, as if ridding it of the bad thoughts inside. Amy looked away.
"Sorry," she said in a tone that was half-serious, half-joking.
The Doctor didn't reply. As of recent, he'd been acting completely strange, even from his usual. It was bothering Amy, but she didn't dare ask about it. Although she wanted to make sure he was alright, she also didn't want to bother him with something that might not even mean anything.
"Something's wrong, something's wrong, something…over there. Other room. I'll be right back," he said. He ran off, taking leaps with his long spider-like legs towards what Amy only assumed was a bedroom. She watched until she heard the satisfying click of the door shutting. Now was her chance.
"Alright, you," she muttered, turning to face the controls of the TARDIS. "Come on now, you have to help me. Who is Rose?" The TARDIS remained still and quiet. No surprise there. "Okay, shouldn't have expected a real answer. Uh, can you take me to her?" Still nothing. "Please?" Well, now Amy was out of ideas. Unless…
Slowly, she inched towards the controls. Carefully and quickly, she flipped one of the switches like it was hot. The TARDIS made a roaring sound and lights flickered, making Amy jump back with a shriek. She glanced around, as if someone saw her, then shook her head. The TARDIS made her seem just as crazy as the Doctor.
"Alright, you. Just take me to Rose, that's all I ask. The Doctor's unhappy, he needs her, whoever she is." Amy reached for a lever, then stopped. She couldn't do this, she had no idea how to work the TARDIS. But then again, what's the worst that could happen? She ends up in the wrong time and the Doctor fixes it? Or something catches on fire? Amy made sure the fire extinguisher was still in corner before taking a deep breath and flying her hands all across the control board. Before she could hear the Doctor yelling, the TARDIS lurched and Amy was laughing with self-content and gripping onto the rails for another journey.
The TARDIS landed with another jerk and the brakes echoed. Before Amy could even stand up straight the Doctor came flying down the stairs. "What did you do, what did you do, what did you do?" he cried.
"Did I do it? Did I actually do it?" Amy laughed in glee.
"I don't know what you did, but it can't be good," the Doctor yelled. "No, oh no no no, oh no no no, why were you touching the controls? Why? No one should touch these controls except me!"
"I- I'm sorry! I was just trying to…"
"Trying to what?"
Amy started for the door. Did she get them in the right place? Could Rose be waiting right outside the TARDIS? The Doctor bounded in front of her and blocked the door with his long arms. "No! I don't know what you did, it may not even be safe out here. You just wait." Slowly, he opened the TARDIS door. Amy peeked over his shoulder only to see grass beneath them.
"Are we stuck in middair? How the hell did I do that?" she said.
"No," the Doctor replied, trying to keep down his annoyed tone. "We're stuck in a bush."
"Oh. Oops."
"Yeah, oops."
"Oh, don't be such a buzzkill. Let's go explore."
"You explore, I have to be sure nothing inside the TARDIS is fried."
Amy shrugged as the Doctor walked past her. She didn't expect him to be so angry (okay, she kind of did), but it wasn't like she'd landed them in the middle of the nuclear bomb testing. She leaped down and brushed herself off. They seemed to be in a backyard of some sort, behind a lovely white home. It appeared that the family didn't spend much time there, since it wasn't exactly in the best condition. After inspecting a plant that seemed to be half dead, the door slid and a voice interrupted Amy.
"Oy, who are you?" a blonde woman asked. She was wearing a denim jacket and jeans with her hair in a messy bun. Amy cocked her head at the lady.
"Are you…are you Rose?" she asked. It wasn't exactly what she was expecting. The lady was older, and not exactly cheery-looking. Of course, Amy could have landed absolutely anywhere in time.
The woman reciprocated the confused look before spotting the TARDIS. "Oh…oh my…" she half-smiled and went back into the house, almost a bit shakily as if she was overexcited. "Rose!" she called. "There's someone here to see you!"
If you find this at all interesting (don't know if that's true), I have another fic, it's a Doctor Who/Lord of the Flies crossover. It could get some views! Sorry to self promote.
