Doctor Who, Deadpool. Series 2, Part 2:EMPTY CITY
New York City.
The Doctor, Deadpool and Weasel stood out from the side street onto a main street of New-York City. A very quiet, peaceful and vacant New-York City.
"What the hell-?" Weasel gasped in astonishment.
Deadpool looked around in awe of his surroundings. The paths were completely free of people, not a single person walking up or down them. All the buildings seemed to have been deserted as windows and doors were left ajar for all to see not a soul inside. As for the roads, every part of the roads had a parked vehicle of transportation of some description, all at a stand still, all vacant.
"Well butter my bum and call me a biscuit!" Deadpool exclaimed. "Where is everyone?"
The Doctor, also in awe of what he saw looked around very confused and repeated a line he had used several times since encountering Deadpool and Weasel:- "I haven't the foggiest!"
It seemed to be that they were the only three souls in New-York as they wandered the streets in search of finding at least one person who could help them figure out the mystery of what was going on.
"More like what's not going on!"
"What?" the Doctor asked, turning to face Deadpool.
"-Oh, don't mind him," explained Weasel, "he has what I like to call Fourth Dimension Complex. He thinks there is some dweeb somewhere unknown to man locked in a room all on his own writing the adventure that is Deadpool's life. Sometimes he likes to talk to that person."
The Doctor nodded out of politeness, but was not to sure whether he should question Deadpool's sanity yet. "Alrighty then!" he bellowed out with a clap of his hands. "Nothing! Absolutely Nobody! This means that either something, or someone has killed of the entire population of New-York City (or maybe even more), or, everyone has gone into hiding!"
"That part, I get…" said Weasel. "It's the whole when are we that I don't quite get yet."
"Right!" the Doctor exclaimed, clapping his hands together once again. "I do believe we are on present day Earth. But not your Earth that you know. I do believe that this is an alternative timeline. Maybe it has something to do with why I encountered the two of you, as it wasn't me who set the co ordinations to where I first met you, or to here. I do believe a higher power is at work, and we're another pawn in his game."
"Can we go back to the TARDIS now?" Deadpool asked. "I feel really lonely with nobody to stare me out of it in the middle of New-York City!"
"Of course." said the Doctor, "And while we're there we'll look to see if the TARDIS can pick up any nearby life signs."
