[Notes]
This was written the same day as chapter one, so there's not much today.
Rory seems to be a hardest character to write out of our main four
Also this chapter is longer than the first, but still pretty short.
(Also, the trust in the title is both Rory's trust in Amy and Amy's trust in the Doctor's assumption)
Chapter 2: Thin Trust
Amy squinted, "is that who I think it is?" she laughed.
"Oh yes it is! But this is a new entrance!" the Doctor shouted.
As soon as he said that the plane blew up. Out of the exploding plane, someone jumped. The Doctor smiled as he ran to where she was going to fall.
"Doctor, don't catch her catch her! A fall from that height would crush you-" Amy tried to warn the Doctor as he ran off, but it was no use. She was sure that Doctor had a plan.
Meanwhile the Doctor ran up to the falling River.
"Don't suppose you have plan?" the Doctor shouted up in the sky
"Just catch me my love," River shouted back down.
Trusting River, the Doctor did as told.
"Hello Sweetie," River said.
"What is this?" the Doctor said grabbing off something off her wrist. "Ooo, an anti-gravity parachute system."
Rory and Amy caught up to River. "What is that?" Rory asked, out of breath.
River replied while putting the silver and blue bracelet back on, "Something the Sontarons use in combat. Rather than using physical parachutes they use these to decrease the pull of gravity on them and land safely."
"Right. Got it," Rory said sarcastically. He couldn't figure out how that worked, but nothing really surprises him. He wasn't even surprised when he first saw that the Tardis was bigger on the inside.
"So, River, what are we doing here exactly?" Amy asked.
"Has the Doctor told you about the planet yet?" River asked Amy and Rory.
"This place was a popular place for vacationing, right?" Rory asked.
"That's right." River said.
Amy continued after Rory. "And then something dangerous happened and people stopped coming here."
"That's right Amy," the Doctor paused," But there's more. It was that way for about 1000 years. But now, well, take a look around."
Amy and Rory looked around at their surroundings.
"You said this place was dangerous." Rory repeated, "but there are people here."
"Exactly. About 3 years ago people started coming here again, apparently forgetting about what happened in the past."
"What happened exactly?" Rory questioned.
"No one can remember..." the Doctor said, "but I assume you know something River?"
"Nope, that's why I brought you here. We need to find out we this planet was considered dangerous. There are over 5 billion people here from all over the universe, I don't know about you, but I'd rather make sure nothing horrible happens to them."
"You're starting to sound like the Doctor," Rory realized, "should I be happy about that?"
Amy rolled her eyes. "Everything looks so nice here," Amy stated, "how can it be dangerous? Whatever was here probably, you know, died?"
River and the Doctor ignored Amy. "We need to find out what going on before something dangerous happens" the Doctor ordered.
River continued, "Amy, Rory, go around asking everyone what they are doing here, and if they remember why this planet isn't supposed to be safe. The Doctor and I will go see who's in the glass building and see what's going on. Meet me back here 10 minutes."
"Actually, that may not be a good idea," the Doctor interrupted. "Look around at all the creatures walking around. The ones walking alone look dazed, as if there mind is blank. Look at people walking in pairs, people walking in trios."
"They all just look... blank." Amy continued.
"Exactly!" the Doctor exclaimed. "Now what about the people walking groups of four?"
"They look normal? They are having conversations, observing things," Rory watched them carefully, "Are you trying trying to suggest that something happens when your not in a group of 4?"
"That's exactly what I'm suggesting Rory! Now, we're all just gonna have to stick together, and-"
"This sounds ridiculous." Amy declared. "I'm gonna go find out what's going on. Rory, stay with River and the Doctor"
"Amy don't-" The Doctor tried to stop her but Amy ran off. "AMY!" The Doctor started to run after her, then turned around. "River, I need one of your Anti-gravity parachutes."
"Of course," River said while taking one bracelet of and handing it to the Doctor, "but what for?"
The Doctor pointed his sonic screwdriver first at his bracelet, and then River's. "I'm just unlocked a communication system. I'll find Amy, but we need get back together quickly," the Doctor's tone turned more serious.
"Let me go after Amy, Doctor" Rory requested.
"Listen, I need you protect River for me." the Doctor explained.
However, because of what happened earlier, Rory wasn't convinced that was a great reason. "Are you gonna run off to be Amy's amazing heroic saviour while I stay here and not do anything to protect Amy?"
"Rory, I don't have time for this. I need to go now" the Doctor yelled as ran away.
Rory sighed.
River really didn't know what to say. Her father always worries when the love of his life is with the only man as amazing as he is. She chose not to say anything about it, but she agreed with herself that she will make sure her parents hearts will always belong in the right place. Plus, the Doctor was her love anyways.
She only hoped that the Doctor and Amy will be back soon. Meanwhile she'll have to do something with Rory, who looks so worried. But worried about what?
Amy's Safety or Amy's Love?
