Past and Future
I stepped out of the TARDIS and faced a wall. "Doctor!" I yell.
"What is it Pond." he said as he walked over to the open door, "Oh, let me fix that." I pulled the doors closed and The Doctor did something. He went and opened the door again. "Ah that's better." he said clapping his hands together. Outside was a control room. "A spaceship, really Doctor, we couldn't go to the beach we had to go to a spaceship.
"This is not a normal spaceship. It is a spaceship. Just a spaceship." the Doctor said looking around. He pulled his hand through his long bangs.
"Can we get in the TARDIS and go somewhere, I don't know, amazing." I said.
"But why would the TARDIS take us here?" he questioned. Turning in a complete circle the reason still hasn't reached his brilliant mind. I turn back to open the TARDIS door only to find that the TARDIS is not there. "Doctor, the TARDIS is missing." I said.
"It can't be. I put the brake on." he said.
"Turn around again." he did another circle.
"Well this is just fantastic!" he said waving his hands around like a maniac. The screwdriver was already out and buzzing. "Nothing is here. Not even a speck of dust." he stuck his tongue out, "Nope no dust. I looked around the control room. A screen was on. A strange show was on.
"Doctor, come look at this." I said.
"Amy it is just a tellie." he said getting back to buzzing.
"No look at what it is playing." he walked over and looked.
"It's nothing Amy." he said.
"Doctor!"
The Doctor turned back to the tellie. He points the sonic at it. The images went faster and faster, bleeding together. Until before he stopped. "No sir, all THIRTEEN of them." then the screen went black.
"Doctor what was that?" I asked. He just went back to finding the TARDIS. "Doctor, what was that. What do all thirteen of them mean?"
"Amy stop asking questions and help me find the TARDIS." he said tossing the sonic in my direction. I managed to catch it. Pressing the button I waved it around. I pointed it at the control panel. The lights flipped on. "Pond what did you do?"
"I was looking for the TARDIS like you told me." I said. He moved his arms again trying to come up with an explanation. He had none. For once his lips were not moving. But his eyes were somewhere else.
"Hello Doctor." a voice said.
"Why are you here?" the Doctor replied.
"I'm here to help." she said.
"Doctor who is she?" I ask. He turned to me. The look on his face was one I have never seen. "Who is she?" I ask again.
"Someone from my past." he said sullenly.
"That doesn't answer my question. Who is she?"
"Amy, this is Rose Tyler." he said. Rose Tyler. The Doctor hardly talked about his past companions but sometimes it would slip.
"Rose Tyler is stuck in a parallel world." I said.
"I was but now I am stuck in this one. My family is still there and I have no way back. I came to the only person I knew who could get me back." Rose said. That's right. The Doctor in his tenth regeneration was sort of cloned but this clone had the same looks and memories as The Doctor but his companion, Donna Noble, got the smarts. The Doctor sent Rose back with his clone and left them together. So I'm guessing after how long they were together they must have started a family. But why is she here?
"Where is the TARDIS?" Rose asked. She looked around. Her eyes landed on the Doctor.
"We don't know." he said.
"Why did you change?" she asked. He just looked away. "Are you still the same man that I fell for."
"No that man is gone. I'm me, a madman with a box." The Doctor said. Rose just looked at him.
"How many... How many years have you been traveling alone?" she finally asked.
"I haven't been alone. There was Martha and Donna; you might remember both of them. And now I am with the Ponds." he said. I can tell that he missed her. But he knew that she moved on.
"Well we need to find the TARDIS first. Then figure out a way to bring me back to my family." she avoided eye contact with me or the Doctor. "Did you try the door?" she asked.
"What Door? Oh that door." The Doctor walked over to a door that wasn't there before. There was something wrong here.
"What's wrong Amy?" the Doctor asked.
"Wouldn't the Sonic have told us there was a door?" I said. The Doctor just looked at me funny. I shook my head and gave up. My rule: one never changes the Doctor's mind.
