"Here we are," the Doctor announced, stepping out of the TARDIS and gesturing extravagantly. "Seattle, Earth, 2020. Tuesday afternoon I think. Love a good Tuesday afternoon. So much better than Wednesdays."
Clara Oswald followed him, slightly less enthusiastic. "It's very dark," she commented.
"That'll be the Pulse. June 1st 2009 every bit of electricity in America went off and never came on again. They adapted but never recovered. Your race has a habit of doing that," he explained.
"Always an eye for the more cheerful periods of history," said River as she looked around.
"Oh stop flirting," grinned the Doctor, straightening his bow tie.
"I wasn't flirting," gasped River, mock offended.
"You so were!"
"I so wasn't!"
Clara tried to hide her amusement, unsuccessfully. Just then, out of nowhere, appeared a young man. Before Clara had even noticed he was there, he knocked into her and grabbed River's bag. In the scuffle that followed he got away.
"I TOLD you we should have changed after Vegas," River sighed.
"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas," the Doctor reminded her.
"I think I asked once, and I regretted it," said Clara, more to herself than the other two.
"Back into the TARDIS before something else unforseen happens," ordered the Doctor. "I knew there was a reason why I avoided this time period."
Once they were safely away River noticed something. "Hey, wasn't I wearing a Vortex Manipulator?"
Author's Note: hi everybody. This is my first fanfiction. It's a crossover between Doctor Who, Dark Angel and the Flash. It should be fairly obvious whereabouts in each of the shows timelines it is set. Further chapters should be up soon. There's going to be about 13 chapters. Please feel free to like and comment. :)
