A/N: OK guys, girls, robots, and aliens, this is my first published fic, so... yeah... Thank you sooooo much, Dragongirl of the Stars, my beta. You've been a great help, and I look forward to working with you on the future chapters! It's kinda sorta a crossover, but only because it has a Star Trek planet in it, but none of the characters, so….. yeah… ***********************************************************************************************************************************************
The TARDIS whirred as it began to materialize. The Doctor had no idea what was going on. He hadn't set course for this planet, which the TARDIS told him was called Psi 2000. "What kind of name is that anyway?" he muttered, "No matter. If we're landing, there must be a reason. Shall we go and explore?" He put out his arm, as always, and Rose snaked her own arm through the hole that resulted. The Doctor looked over, smiled, and they began walking through the frozen, destroyed remains of what seemed to be a very scientifically advanced planet. Nearly everything was grey. The ground, the sky, even the buildings, all different shades of grey. It was like walking into a black and white film.
"Doctor, where are we?" Rose asked, looking up at him. "I haven't got a clue. All I know is tha' we're on a planet called Psi 2000, and it's the year," he started, looking down at his watch, "One hundred and seventy-two thousand."
"Can you hear anything? Y'know, breathing and what not? Anything livin'?" Rose asked, straining to see or hear anything.
"Nope." he answered, grinning his wide, goofy grin.
"We going to search, or stand here?" she asked when she realized that they were stopped in the doorway of the TARDIS.
They agreed to split up for a while, and to meet up at the TARDIS twenty minutes later to talk about their findings. Rose immediately ran off to explore the far reaches of the planet, but The Doctor stayed in the building, deciding that all he'd need would be there. He searched the area, occasionally using his screwdriver to try to fix things, but to no avail.
For a while, to break the silence, he began to hum, then whistle. Everything around him was either blue or grey, except a small patch of red gel-like substance on the side of one of the broken machines. He walked over to it, and began prodding it gently, trying to see if it was alive. He'd seen stranger aliens, but this was just a patch of nothing. Or so he thought.
Three minutes later, Rose returned to his side by the TARDIS. "Nothin' out there. Nothin' livin', at least." she announced, looking at him expectantly.
"Same here… Everythin's either broken, frozen, or both. Maybe I just miscalculated our course. C'mon, then. Wouldn't want to catch a cold." he said, opening the door and gesturing for her to enter before him.

"Doctor, are we going to leave anytime soon?" Rose asked, propped up against one of the supports. They'd been standing in the main room of the TARDIS for nearly an hour, the Doctor's eyes never leaving one of the screens.
"No. Not quite yet. I've not finished my scans." he answered, not looking up from the screen. He scratched his arm, then turned away from the screen, running his hands through his short hair.
"How long's it going to take?"
"Could take hours." Rose sighed and began to wander around the vast corridors of the TARDIS.

Five minutes later, Rose was in her room, lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling. She'd left the door open, so the Doctor didn't need to worry about it creaking. He stood in the doorway, arms folded across his chest, watching her. "Doctor, are we leaving now?" she asked, not looking at him, "I don't much like it here. Somethin's... Off about it."
"Soon. What's the rush? Not enough time? We've got all the time in the world. Time Lord, remember?" he answered, laughing. Rose looked down, confused. This didn't sound like the Doctor she knew and, dare she say it? Loved.
"Are you alright, Doctor?" she asked, only to find that he had already vanished. Or, at least, she thought he'd gone. "Doctor?"

A/N: Alrighty then! That's the first chapter. A bit of a teaser, if you will. I may and may not continue. It depends on if you people review. ;) So I'll leave you to that!
EDIT: I'm leaving for Honduras tomorrow for 9 days, so there'll be total radio silence. I'd meant to post the next chapter before I left, but I've not been very inspired-or, at least, not while I had my computer or a handy dandy notebook with me-so... I promise I'll write it while I'm there! It won't be up untill at least Monday, though, because I get home Sunday, and then my beta has to look at it, so...
