Running away from giant leather Rhino men was not something Tanya had ever thought she'd have to be doing.
Running around with an alien on the moon? Well, she'd hoped, but she didn't expect that to happen either.
Martha was still reeling from the kiss the Doctor had just given her. "That was nothing?"
Tanya grabbed her hand and began looking for the Rhino cops. "I'd assume so, considering he did that to me too. Emergency DNA transfer. We're a distraction."
Martha huffed, running with her. "Yeah, we're the distraction, not some Rhino people trying to kill a vampire."
Tanya almost laughed. "We're not the distraction to him, Martha. At least, not the biggest one."
"Than to what?"
They ran right into a rhino thing. "Scanning result: inconclusive."
Tanya grinned. "To them."
She turned and ran, dragging Martha with her and ignoring the fact that she would definitely have blisters if she made it to tomorrow alive.
Martha began to take deeper breaths. "Dr. Gonzalez, the oxygen is running out!"
Tanya ran faster, toward the MRI room, where the Doctor had told them to go after he'd fried his screwdriver. "Than don't speak, you'll lose too much!"
They burst through the door, bringing in the Rhino cops with them.
Tanya quickly went over to the Doctor's side, trying not to panic while Martha got the Rhinos to scan the vampy bitch.
She began trying to restart his hearts and lowered her head to his ear. "Oi, alien boy? We kind of need you alive, so if you could just spring up like a summer daisy, it's be great."
No response. She rolled her eyes. "If you don't wake up right now, Doctor, than everybody dies."
No reaction.
We're running out of time! Tanya breathed into his mouth and punched him in the hearts.
He jerked up, and she fell back. "WOO! What'd I miss?"
Tanya stayed lying down, rubbing her chest. "You're welcome."
He looked down at her oddly. "Tanya, why are you on the ground?"
She groaned as her vision faded.
Oxygen starvation finally caught up, huh?
She heard Martha's voice. "Doctor! Doctor Gonzalez!"
Her eyes fluttered open. She knew she was in some type of hospital, but it didn't look like any she'd been in. "Where am I? Are we still on the moon?"
The Doctor looked down at her, brandishing a new screwdriver. "Good, you're awake! Say 'Ahhh'."
She did.
He put away the screwdriver. "Good! Everything seems to be in order, vitals are fine, no major trauma to any of your appendages. Good as new, Tanya!"
She stood up from the bed and stretched. "Yeah, that's great and everything, but where am I!"
Martha spoke. "You're in the TARDIS."
Tanya wrinkled her nose. "The what?"
The doctor lead her to the door and into a weird hallway. "The TARDIS, stands for Time and Relative Dimension in Space."
Tanya nodded. "Is this the blue box I saw you walk out of this morning with a tie around your head?"
He paused, but then continued walking. "Yep! Any questions? Comments?"
Tanya nodded again as they entered what she was pretty sure was a control room. "Yeah. How'd you fit a different dimension into a wooden box?"
Martha looked at her oddly. "Dimension?"
Tanya shrugged. "It's in the name, innit?"
The doctor walked her straight out the door. "Well, it's been fun and you are fascinating, but we really must be going. Can't have two female companions at a time, always stirs up trouble, you understand right?"
Tanya looked at him in disbelief. "If you're worried I'll fall in love with you, you don't even have a chance at my affections."
He flushed a bit. "Hey, now! Is it the hair? I like the hair!"
Martha was still stuck on the fact that there's been more before.
Tanya rolled her eyes. "No, your hair is lovely. Two problems. One, I am very gay."
He stared at her while Martha suddenly looked flustered. "Oh. Well, what's the second problem?"
Tanya threw her hands up. "You're an alien! Who catches feelings for aliens? Just because you have a nice skin suit or whatever, doesn't mean every female you meet will fall in love with you!"
He pouted a bit.
She raised an eyebrow and then turned and walked off.
He called after her. "Tanya! Where are you going?"
She turned back toward him with her hands on her hips. "You told me I couldn't come!"
"Yes, but that was before!"
"Before you knew I wouldn't fall for you? So you expect me to go with you now that you've changed your mind and suddenly want me around? What if I've changed my mind, huh? What then?"
He leaned against one of the doors and smiled impishly. "Have you?"
Tanya glared some more before she grinned. "Nope."
She ran back into the TARDIS and didn't look back.
In hindsight, she probably should've.
