The TARDIS engines whirred and slowly faded as the doctor came to a stop, bouncing to the doors and swinging the left one open "Ponds!come on!" he yelled, grinning madly. "doctor?" Amy's voice came from the top window as she leaned out rubbing her left eye. "get up! Come on!" the doctor motioned his hand to the TARDIS. The doctor could hear Amy and Rory talking about something in their room well he waited impatiently. Ten minutes later Amy and Rory were exiting the front door and entering the TARDIS, "so-where to?" Amy jumped a bit as she stopped at the console, "I was thinking random!" he announced "so that's it, no where special-no one special?" Rory looked unimpressed. "Oi!, Your traveling in a time machine there is always something spectacular going on!" The doctor argued "ya well...it's kind of routine now..." Rory trailed off "fine-you choose then!" the doctor slid the monitor towards his companions. "No need to throw a fit" Amy laughed lightly well the doctor made a face at her, "Alfava Metraxis?" Rory asked "no!" the doctor blurted out "weeping angles-remember Amy?" The doctor looked at her as she nodded. "K-how aboutttt-" Rory dragged the word as he looked through a list on the computer "Arcadia?" Rory looked up waiting for a reply "mm" the doctor mumbled unsure of it. "ooh!" Amy made Rory jumped as she was reading over his shoulder "how about this one?" she pointed at the screen "Barcelona?" Rory made a face "yea" Amy nodded her head as she spoke.
The doctor was lost in thought as he heard Amy call him "sorry-what were you saying?" he asked "how about Barcelona?" Rory looked up from the screen again. The last time the doctor had spoken of Barcelona was when he had been traveling with Donna, his body stiffened at the thought and his legs went weak as he remembered promising Rose to go but they never got the chance. "Doctor" Amy's voice was a bit panicked, "sorry..." the doctor brushed off his thoughts and answered the couple "maybe-maybe not that one" he choked out. "We'll be here all day if we don't choose somewhere!" Amy exclaimed.
"We may as well pick random" Rory decided "fine." Amy agreed crossing her arms as Rory slid the monitor back towards the time lord. The doctor walked to the monitor and swiped at the screen quickly putting in coordinates and pulling the lever to start the engines "Geronimo!" he yelled throwing his hand in the air like a five year old.
But then the TARDIS began to shake and the whirring noise of the breaks stopped and the all the lights dimmed going out one by one, "doctor? What's happeni-ahh!" Amy yelled as sparks flew from one of the lights on the console next to her. "I'm-I'm not sure!" he looked around pressing buttons wildly, the last time this had happened was when...him, Rose, and Mickey had landed- in the parallel world! "doct-ahh!" Amy screamed again as she was thrown into Rory and they both tumbled to the floor. A few minutes later after more fumbling, tumbling and yelling and swearing that mostly came from Amy's mouth, the TARDIS settled down and was still, "is it safe to get up now?" Rory asked ducking under the console with Amy attached to his right arm.
The doctor stood shakily walking around, the TARDIS was dark with no light, he crept slowly to the doors and pressed his hand to the white wall. He was fighting with himself whether or not to open the door but eventually he did but to his surprise there was no parallel world. "What?" he asked himself confused, he quickly twirled around and ran back to the monitor pulling out his sonic screwdriver and pointing at the console. As soon as he pressed the button the monitor and every light and panel turned or flickered back on, "well where are we?" Amy popped up from the floor, "and what the hell happened" Rory added on, rubbing his head which was a bit sore. "We're in the void" The doctor answered Amy's question "and as to what happened-" a glowing light from the center of the console stopped him from talking. "I assume that-" The doctor nodded at the glow emerging out of the TARDIS console "will answer our question." Amy and Rory watched at the light swirled around the room and twisting creating figure eights in the air in ribbon like motions "it's time energy" The doctor spoke up, "from where?" Amy asked coming out of her trance of amusement "the heart of the TARDIS" The doctor said simply "but-why?" Rory looked at the doctor in curiosity. The doctor didn't want to answer, he knew this energy and it wasn't supposed to be here, not now-not ever. So why was it? The energy started to become thicker though distracting him from his thoughts of why? And how? "doctor." Amy piped "yes" he asked "what's it doing?" she asked standing still not daring to move "well, we're about to find out I guess" the doctor replied taking a couple steps back unsure what could or would happen next.
His head began to pound and throb with pain as a second song of the TARDIS entered his head "ahhh" he yelled as he curled onto his knees in pain "Rory why's he doing that?" Amy cried "how am I supposed to know? He's a time lord! I didn't study time lords!" Rory shot at Amy. The doctor clenched his jaw gritting his teeth and as exaggerated gasp left him and he collapsed to his side breathing heavily Amy and Rory rushed to his side as his breaths becoming paced again "what was that?" Amy asked concerned as she helped him sit up, "there was another song-a song like the TARDIS's song, there was two-and it was to- strong" The doctor explained, a bead of sweat dripping down his forehead. Amy and Rory grabbed one arm each and lifted him up to his feet, all three of them facing the door.
There was a scraping sound on the floor of the TARDIS but it hadn't been a noise made by any of them "doctor?" Amy whispered his name in question "turn around slowly" he directed. All three of them in sync turned around only just able to see the hunched over figure behind the other side of the console. "Hello?" The doctor spoke in hopes of an answer, Amy was to curios as she started to walk towards whomever or whatever was hiding there "Amy!" The doctor gritted his teeth, but she just kept walking forwards "Amy" Rory said her name, but her feet carried her closer and closer and closer. Soon she was only mere feet away from the hunched over figure, she could see black and a light colour, the figure seemed to be human-so they must have been harmless, at least-that's what she had hoped. Soon only centimeters away from whatever or whomever it was, Amy crouched down next to it or them.
"Hello..."her voice cracked a bit in fear, now that she was close enough though she could tell it was a human-a woman, she examined what the women was wearing, a black tattered dress and her hair was blonde, curled and frankly quite messy, her arms were bruised and her feet were scrapped and cut like she'd been walking on rocks barefoot. When she got no answer she noticed the figure was shaking and had her hands over her face "are you okay? We can help you" Amy tried to comfort the women, she heard a distorted "No" come from the women and she then decided to place a hand on her back unaware that the doctor and Rory were watching a few feet behind her.
"Do you know her?" Rory looked at the doctor and back at his wife comforting the women he had never met, the doctor gulped, "is she the TARDIS?" Rory asked "no-no the TARDIS would be dead and nothing would be working" the doctor explained, "well-then who is it" Rory asked, the doctor stood silent just watching.
The women sobbed a bit and Amy spoke "My name is Amy-Amy Williams-or Pond I guess..., my husband over there is Rory Williams and my friend-he's called the doctor" she smiled a bit. The women removed her hands from covering her face but still staring at the floor "doctor?" she asked Amy "doctor-yes" Amy responded, the blonde rubbed her hands over her face trying to dry it from tears "The doctor?" The blonde asked again this time adding the "The", "yes" Amy pinched her eye brows, why hasn't she asked Doctor who? yet? Or where she is? Amy thought to herself. The blonde then turned to look at her, Amy tried to remember every inch of her face in case she looked away, pink lips, curved cheeks, round nose, then she saw, in the women's eyes, gold flecks swimming around in her brown hues. She felt comfortable around her though like nothing was wrong, "do you know who I am?" The women asked Amy "no-" Amy thought, she recognized this face though, then she though hard about it, she remembered the day the doctor showed her quick flashes of pictures of all his companions-her face had popped up somewhere in the midst of it. "Did you travel with him" Amy whispered "yes..." The women answered solemnly "who are you?" Amy looked up into her eyes, the blonde stayed quiet and then began to rise up into a standing position, Amy followed standing next to her watching her still waiting for an answer, "My name is Rose Tyler-also known as Bad Wolf" the blonde spoke loud enough so Rory and the doctor could hear her as well.
Amy watched as the doctor seemed to avoid eye contact with the woman who was supposedly known as Rose, "doctor-so do you know her?" Rory asked for third or second time-the doctor hadn't been counting. "Yes" he managed to get out, "then why is she not traveling with you anymore?" Rory asked, Amy glared daggers at him wishing he would stop asking questions, but Rose was all for answering questions. "I got stuck in a parallel world, I managed to get back but then I was placed back in the parallel world with a metacrisis doctor-a clone of his-" Rose pointed at the doctor "past regeneration" she explained to Rory "then how are you here?" Amy asked "let's just say the power of Bad Wolf" Rose seemed to glare at the doctor and then looked back to Amy and Rory.
"Where's the metacrisis then?" The doctor spoke up, Rose looked down uncomfortably "he must miss you-how did you get here Rose? You shouldn't be here" The doctor scolded. "I'm not actually too sure on how I got here" Rose replied "well then let's find a way to get you back" the doctor clasped his hands together and started towards the console. "She just got here-don't you care that you're even seeing her again?" Rory asked throwing his hands out, The doctor stayed silent I'm married now-it just won't work The doctor repeated to himself "doctor?"Rose spoke "yes..." he waited "what if you can't get me back?" Rose catechized, "we'll find one" he mumbled. Amy said nothing but stomped away with Rory trailing behind her-leaving just Rose and the doctor in the room together, Rose started to walk towards the doctor when his words stopped her "Rose. I'm married now-I'm not the same man-" "you don't think I know that?" Rose glared at him "you don't think I didn't think about that EVERY NIGHT. The Metacrisis told me everything about what he knew, it was a way to relive adventures and you know what? It tended to be his favourite story to tell over and over. I know you married, that's fine, glad you're happy-I mean wasn't I? But I guess you really wouldn't know would you?" Rose shot at him as his eyes became wide with fear and concern for her "I-I" he stuttered "you didn't know" she finished for him "that's fine, your different you don't love me the same- I realized that when you regenerated the first time" Rose rolled her eyes somewhat ashamed that she was putting the doctor in a bad spot "I love all of you the same!" he walked next to her his face only a few inches away from hers "don't ever think once.-once! that I didn't love you guys, all my companions-because all of you are important and you know that very well Rose Tyler." Rose stepped back "so you cared about me so much that you sent me back to the parallel world where I could never see you again!" Rose yelled at him tears beginning to burn in her eyes."That metacrisis couldn't be in this world, and you could fix him and still be with your family! Don't you care about your family?" The doctor said harshly, "of course I do! But I promised you forever! If you haven't forgotten!" Rose reminded him of her so long ago promise, "your human! I couldn't stand to watch you leave me in a bad way! So I gave you the life I never could have!" he tried to explain making her take a couple steps back as he stepped forwards. "Yea well guess what? It didn't last very long when a parallel Master came around and killed him!" Rose screamed at him tears flooding her eyes as the doctors face became pale and was still deciphering what she had said "so stitch this!" Rose quoted her mum Jackie Tyler, as she gave him a hard Tyler smack and prepared to stomp off. "I'm sorry-I- I didn't know!, I have to take you back to your family" he explained "well guess what they're all dead!-I thought I could at least give you forever since I can't relate to anyone else" Rose sobbed slumping down against a wall just noticing Amy and Rory peeking around the corner. The doctor turned around and walked over to her towering above her and then sitting himself next to her he looked at her sympathetically "what do you mean?" he said more calmly this time "what do you think?" Rose snapped as Rory and Amy entered the console room "you're a time lord" Amy answered for the doctor "time lady" Rose corrected as a tear slid down her cheek , Amy kneeled down in front of her, grasping her hand trying to comfort her.
