Chapter 1It was days after the Angels had taken Manhattan, his Pond's were gone.
"No, there has to be a way!" he screamed at thin air.
"You know there isn't" replied a soft voice, it was River. The only thing left of the Pond's, his wife. He couldn't tell if she was actually there or if it was just in his head. Suddenly he started to question everything. Were Amy and Rory actually gone or did that all happen in his head? Were they just at home? On holiday? Anywhere but Manhattan. He had that look on his face; River could tell what he was thinking.
"It's real" she said "I'm real, It's all real. I'm so sorry sweetie." She walked towards him cautiously his old eyes were red.
"I've seen so much" he whispered through his tears "Is it so much to ask for this one thing" tears now running down his young face. River was now standing right in front of him, she placed her warm hands on his shaking shoulders, he turned his head to the left and kissed her hand. Then placing his hands on her waist she kissed him.
It took a moment to register in that amazing brain of his, but that's when he realized it was actually happening. This made him even more upset, because if this was real then so was the one thing he hoped wasn't. The Pond's were actually gone. Of course the TARDIS being his TARDIS could also tell he was upset, he had even turned off manual flight, putting it in auto was not a thing he usually did.
"Let's take this thing off auto pilot shall we" River said calmly
"No" Replied the Doctor stubbornly
"I wasn't asking" she smirked back
The Doctor was baffled, she was the only person aloud to talk to him like this. Mainly because she was his wife and there was nothing he could do about it. But that's what he loved about her. She set a time, a date, and a place on the console. He still couldn't work out how she could fly his TARDIS so flawlessly.
"Oh River" He said in a hushed voice "there's still so much about you that amazes me, I know who you are but WHO are you?"
"Spoilers" she chuckled. And then as quickly as she appeared, she was gone.
"Cheap time travel" The Doctor said to himself as he rolled his eyes.
He had no idea where River had taken him, as he walked to the console he noticed that actually they were still flying through the vortex. Going god knows where.
"Where is the mean lady sending us eh Sexy?" he asked his beloved TARDIS, the only thing he knew would be with him through everything. Then there were flashing lights and a loud beeping noise coming from the console. Running around pressing everything, slipping from one panel to another frantically hitting everything, trying to work out what was wrong with his beloved Sexy. Then the TARDIS jolted, this had only happened once before.
"Oh no, not again" complained the raggedy man.
He ran down the steps and looked up at the console from below.
"No no no no no!" she shouted hitting his TARDIS with his palm. They had fallen out of the vortex. "Well then" he declared "Geronimo!"
