Disclaimer: Thy kind writer dost not own Doctor Who
"The police box kinda gives it away.
"So does the whirring, besides he's...oops,"
"I've been following you for a long time. You abandoned me." Jack frowned at the Doctor.
"Did I? Busy life, moving on." The Doctor said shortly giving me a look for cutting in.
"Just gotta ask. At the battle of Canary Warf, I saw the list of the dead. I-it said Rose Tyler." Jack stuttered. Tasha and I looked at each other at the mention of her name. Rose Tyler brings up conflict between us, I LOATHE her, and Tasha semi enjoy her.
The Doctor smiled widely "Oh no, sorry! She's alive!"
"You're kidding!" Jack said, sharing The Doctor's enthusiasm and I scowled at their happiness. 'She always finds a way to ruin my day.'
"Parallel world, safe and sound. And Mickey, and her mother!" The Doctor said.
"Oh Yes!" Jack nearly screamed, and gathered the Doctor in a hug, both of them sharing laughs.
I nudged Tasha.
"Ricky." I said quietly and smiled when I made Tasha giggle.
Good old Rose." Martha mumbled. I laughed bitterly "Yup." I commented shortly, I share Martha's bitterness and I suppose I have more bitterness than her…..
"So, explain yourself, Captain Jack Harkness." Martha said, Jack followed close to her, the Doctor started walking in front of them, with Tasha and I following behind them.
"So there I was, stranded in the year two hundred one hundred, ankle deep in Dalek dust, and he goes off without me." Jack explained, pointing towards the Doctor. "But I had this." He continued, pulling up his wrist to show Martha something on it. "I used to be a time agent, it's called a vortex manipulator, and he's not the only one who can time travel." The Doctor interrupted him
"Oh, excuse me, that is not time travel!" He pointed at the Time Vortex Manipulator. "It's like…. I got a sports car and you have a space hoper."
"Ooh, boys and their toys!" Martha laughed.
"Alright, so I bounce!" Jack said defensively. "I thought twenty first century, the best place to find the Doctor except I got it a little wrong. I arrived in eighteen sixty nine, this burnt out so it was useless."
"Told you." The Doctor said simply.
"I had to live through the entire twentieth century waiting for a version of you that would coincide with me."
"Which would make him more then one hundred years old…" Tasha stole Martha's comment and I grinned responding.
"To which he replies…"
"And looking good, don't you think?" Jack said, smiling. Tasha giggled at his arrogance.
Martha looked back at us and frowned.
"You know, you two are a little scary sometimes." She said.
"Sorry." I said, as I hit Tasha's arm harder than I meant to, I had to tell her to hold her tongue someway…..
"So, I went to the time riff, based myself there, cause I knew you'd come back to refuel. Until finally, I-I got a signal on this detecting you, and here we are!" Jack continued.
"But the thing is, how come you left him behind Doctor?" Martha asked.
"I was busy." The Doctor said sheepishly.
"Sure you were, Doctor." I said. "Just got busy and abandoned him coughing on Dalek dust."
The Doctor turned towards Tasha, and I watched as he grabbed her arm and dragged her aside and whispered sternly to her, I listened in as best I could.
"Look, I know you know why I left him, but you can keep your mouth shut. I don't want to talk about it." He looked at Martha and then back at Tasha. "In front of her." And with that he walked to his regular spot. I grinned as I whispered to Tasha
"Well, you just got a stern talking to from the Doctor."
We both giggled.
"Jack and Martha's turn soon." Tasha said, she was obviously predicting what they'll say.
"Is that what happens though, seriously? Do you just get bored of us one day and just disappear?" Martha asked frowning.
"Not if you're blonde." Jack answered her, frowning.
"Oh she was blonde, what a surprise!" Martha said, very much over enthusiastic and I snickered as the Doctor turned to them.
"You two, we're at the end of the universe. Huh? Right, at the edge of knowledge itself, and your busy… blogging!" There was a stern silence at the Doctors outburst. The Doctor turned to a small path off the gravel road we were walking on, mumbling. "Come on."
Both Tasha and I smirked, and Martha turned towards us. "You knew that was going to happen?" She asked softly so the Doctor didn't hear. We both nodded at the same time.
"Don't take it personally, Martha. He freaks out at anybody who says anything that is to do with Rose." I said, 'I'm tired of Tasha insulting her, Martha's amazing.'I sighed the optimistic talk of Rose Tyler was wearing me down. Martha looked at Tasha, and she just nodded my head. I gave Tasha a warning look knowing what she wanted to say as we continued on until we reached a clearing, and a cliff that showed a lost civilization.
"Is that a city?" Martha asked, I smirked knowing how hard it was for Tasha to hold her tongue.
"A city or a hive, or a nest, or a conglomeration." The Doctor said. I laughed "Just putting it out there, I love that word!"
"Yah, just to let you know, that's a very good word to remember." Tasha said, almost mono toned. I sent her a look, 'That word is amazing and she is INSULTING it? Crazy person.'
"Very nice word, almost as good as decimate." I commented.
"And look there, there's pathways and roads. It had some sort of life in it." Tasha said, stealing what the Doctor was about to say.
"Long ago." The Doctor continued.
"What killed it?" Martha asked, depressed at the sight of a dead civilization. I frowned, I could feel the sadness and terror and almost saw a flashback of the people dying and I frowned, it was so sad. It was hard not to feel sad when a weight seemed to push on my chest, forcing me too feel such sad emotions.
"Time." I said. I closed my eyes and could almost hear the town when it was full of living aliens like Chantho. "It's what kills everything."
"Look at the stars, this isn't night time." Tasha pointed at the sky. "All the stars have burnt out and faded away…"
"Into nothing." The Doctor said.
"We should be frozen to death." Jack said.
"Well, the girls and I. Not so sure about you." The Doctor said looking at Jack.
"What about the people, does no one survive?" Martha asked.
Tasha whispered to me,
"We should let the Doctor take this one." I shrugged in agreement.
"I suppose, we have to hope, life will find a way." The Doctor said looking at Martha.
Jack pointed at a man running away from a crowd of people screaming 'Human!'
"Well he's not doing so bad."
"Is it just me or does that look more like a…" The Doctor started, but Tasha and I finished.
"A hunt!" and with that we took off, down the hill, and towards the man with the Doctor Martha and Jack close behind us.
We raced towards the man as fast as we could. I started grinning with excitement and looked over at Tasha grinning too, I love this feeling that anything may happen. The Doctor followed up close behind us, as well as Jack, while Martha held her ground. As we turned the corner to the clearing I heard Jack laughing "Oh I missed this!" We struggled to get the man, when we did Jack screamed. "I got you!" and he grabbed him in his arms. The future kind kept racing towards us, making Jack throw the man to the Doctor and pull out his gun, pointing it at them.
"Jack don't you dare!" The Doctor screamed, obviously trying to stay away from violence. Jack pointed his gun to the sky and shot. The gun shot echoed throughout the hills and cliffs, making the future kind stop in fear.
"What the hell are they!" Martha asked in a panic.
"Their future kind! They are what we will become!" Tasha screamed back at her I rolled my eyes 'that is soooo not true.'
"What we MAY become. And there are plenty more of em', we've got to keep going" I yelled my correction and enlightened observation.
"I've got a ship up the hill it's safe, it's not far-" The Doctor said, and looked up the hill we just came down from, which was now swarmed with more future kind. "Maybe not." He said.
"We're close to the silo. If we get to the silo then we're safe!" The man screamed.
"Silo?" The Doctor asked us.
"Silo!" Jack screamed.
"Silo for me!" Martha screamed as well. The Doctor looked at us.
"You already know what we're going to say!" I yelled back as I started running full speed to the silo, and everyone followed with the future kind right behind us.
"This is real!" I heard Tasha scream, laughing through her adrenaline.
"And how does that make you feel?" Jack asked, trying to joke around.
"Scared to hell!" She responded screaming, but kept laughing.
"Why scared? Why not exhilarating!" I looked back and grinned as I looked at them. "That's some pointy teeth..."
We passed the strips of metal the future kind called their homes, and down a hill towards a spot light and found the silo.
"It's the future kind, let us in!" We ran towards the gate, and hit it hard.
"Show me your teeth!" A man said from behind the gate.
"We don't have time for this! SHOW HIM YOUR TEETH!" Tasha screamed in a panic. We all opened out mouths wide as the man behind the gate examined our teeth, and then realized we were present time. He panicked
"Let em' in! Let em' in!" The gate opened, and we ran is as fast we could.
"Close the gate, close it!" The man yelled, and closed it just in time for the future kind to nearly hit the gate as well. The man pulled his gun and pointed it towards the ground and pulled the trigger. It was an automatic and the bullets flew from the barrel and hit the ground with sparks, just in front of the future kind, making them back off in fear. The gun stopped shooting, leaving only the sound of the future kind snarling at us in anger. We all stared at them in fear, well they did, I watched them curiously. I always found them interesting. The future kind leader side stepped, pointing at us
"Humans. Human!" He snarled. "My feast." He said pointing at his mouth.
"Go back to were you came from." The man with the gun ordered sternly.
The future kind leader took a few daring steps towards him.
"I said, go back!" The man said, and the leader stopped and stared at him. "Back!" The man said, cocking his gun up again, preparing to shoot the Futurekind leader on sight.
"So you don't tell him to put his gun down." Jack grumbled at the Doctor.
"He's not my responsibility." The Doctor said simply.
"And I'm? Huh, that makes a change." Jack snorted.
"I can see you." The future kind leader slurred, pointing towards Tasha and I, which scared me even more. Then he screamed and motioned his people to leave, turning around to go back up the kill. He looked back at us one last time before he was out of vision.
"Thanks for that." Said the Doctor, scratching his ear.
"Alright, lets get you inside." The man with the gun said, walking towards the entrance of the silo. The man we request ran up close to him, still out of breath
"My name is, Pedro Shaff King. Tell me, just tell me, can you take me to Utopia?" The man with the gun replied happily.
"Oh yes sir. Yes I can."
(~~~~~~~~~~~)
Back in the silo, Professor Yana was working on his machine with Chantho. He was trying to get two wires to connect, when a voice on the intercom came on.
"Professor, we've got six new members inside. One of them is calling themselves a Doctor."
"Of medicine?" Yana asked, intrigued.
"He says it's of everything." The man in the intercom said.
"Wha- a scientist!" Yana said excitedly, and dropped what he was doing. He stuttered trying to tell Chantho what to do so he can run up to meet him.
"Oh, just, uh, well, I don't know, just, um… I'm coming!" He stuttered, and hurried out the door.
(~~~~~~~~~~~)
We followed the guard down a set of stares into the silo. "It's like a box, a big blue box, I'm sorry but I really need it back, it's stuck out there." The Doctor begged the guard. The guard mumbled to him something I could hear.
"I'm sorry, my family were heading to the silo, did they get here? My mother is Kristen Shaff King, my brother's name is Beltom." Pedro begged the guard.
"Fuses are down, but you can check the paper work." The guard replied, and turned to an opening of a tunnel. "Creet!" He called, and a little blonde haired kid came from the tunnel and looked at the man. "Passenger needs help." The guard said. Creet walked over to us, and pulled up a paper board.
"Right, whatcha need?" Pedro walked over to her.
"Yes, Martha, it's a kid working." Tasha said, I sent her an unimpressed lookk.
"A blue box you said?" The guard asked the Doctor.
"Big. Tall. Wooden. Says police." I answered.
"We're driving out for the last water collection, I'll see what I can do." The guard answered both of them.
"Thank you." The Doctor said, as the guard walked away.
"Come on." Creet said, heading towards the tunnel.
"Sorry, but… How old are you?" Martha asked.
Creet turned her head to look at her
"Old enough to work, this way."
"Told you." Tasha said softly I looked over at her curious as to what was going through her mind, and we made our way down the tunnel.
We walked down a crowded hall, with pictures on the walls, and people laying everywhere on the ground. I heard a new born baby cry as we made our way down the tunnel. "A lot stuffier in here then I though." I whispered to Tasha. It was really hard to breath, and I could smell stale sweat. 'How could they live down here? Or….here maybe not DOWN so to say…'
"Kristen, or Beltom Shaff King?" Creet called out to the miserable people in the hallway. Nobody looked up from their nests. People were bundled up in sweaters, wool blankets, and clutching onto mugs filled with some warm liquid.
"It's like a refuge camp." Martha grumbled, not seeming too peachy.
"They stink!" Jack said. A person who lived there frowned at him, offended and the huge size of him seemed to be what made Jack apologize. "Sorry." He said.
"Some of these people must have lived here their entire life." Tasha said, looking around at some teenagers who were staring at us curiously.
"Never knowing the world outside." I added trying to hide my curiosity, some people might find it rude, my curiosity.
"Don't you see, though, the ripe smelly humans. You survived!" The Doctor said enthusiastic.
"Mmmmmmm," I looked at the people curiously.
"Well, you might of spent a million years evolving into clouds gas. But you always come back in the same basic shape. The fundamental humans."
"Kristen, Shaff King!" Creet called out one last time.
"End of the universe, and here you are. Indomitable!" The Doctor practically yelled. Tasha and I smiled, at his words. "That's the word, Indomitable!" He said one last time happily.
"I'll be sure to remember that word." I responded excitedly.
"Is there a Kristen Shaff King?" Creet asked again.
A woman stood up.
"That's me." Pedro saw Kristen, and started running towards her.
"Oh my god!." Kristen said, gathering her son in a hug, and his brother right behind her.
"There's no bad news!" Martha said happily.
"Oh, you just wait and see." Tasha said to her, I sighed as I said.
"Spoilers," unknowingly mimicking River Song perfectly.
Jack walked over to a man that was living in the vault and shook his hand
"Captain Jack Harkness, and who are you?"
" Stop it!" Tasha warned Jack. He was flirtatious with everyone.
The Doctor was busy pointing his sonic screwdriver to a panel to open the door, but I heard him give a short laugh. Martha and I looked at Tasha surprised.
"You made the Doctor laugh." Martha said smiling, as Martha walked towards the Doctor I whispered to Tasha.
"Okay, Rose Tyler." And then I walked towards the Doctor too.
"It has dead locks, so I'll have to over write the code." The Doctor said, hitting the control panel. He pointed his sonic screwdriver at the door "Lets see where we are."
"Watch out!" Tasha and I screamed as the door opened to the giant rocket, as he walked normally and almost fell off. Jack caught his jacket just in time and pulled him back as the Doctor swung his leg over the open air he was about to step on and grabbed onto the door for dear life. Martha squealed, reaching out to the Doctor.
Tasha nudged me. "Right, she loves him." Tasha whispered. And I facepalmed, 'No waaaaaaay~' I muttered in my head sarcastically.
"Gotcha!" Jack said.
"Thanks." The Doctor said, out of breath from surprise.
"How did you cope without me?" Jack asked, and both of them laughed.
We all looked out the doorway to see the giant rocket, and a huge drop before it that the Doctor almost fell off of.
"Now that is what I call a rocket." Martha said, impressed.
"Their not refuges, Doctor, their passengers." Tasha said, looking at the enormous rocket that lay in front of us. I could tell what Tasha was thinking so I mentioned the man who created the whole show,
"Sydney Newman," I whispered, not intending for anyone too hear.
"They said something about Utopia." Martha suddenly remember what Pedro had said.
"The perfect place. Hundred trillion years, it's the same old dream." The Doctor said, looking down again at the engines.
"You recognize those engines?" He asked Jack.
"No. Whatever it is, it's not rocket science. But it's hot, though" Jack replied, adoring the sight as well. The Doctor closed the door, and walked back into the hallway.
I nudged Tasha's arm as Professor Yana made his way closer to us.
"The Master!" I whispered excitedly. I could feel myself shaking slightly with excitement.
"But if the universe is falling apart, what does Utopia mean?" The Doctor asked, obviously not seeing Professor Yana behind him. Yana walked in between Jack and the Doctor. He looked at Jack, then at the Doctor, then back at Jack.
"The Doctor?" He asked excitedly.
"That's me." The Doctor said. Yana smiled widely and grabbed his arm and pulled him down the hall.
"Good! Good, good, good, good!"
"Good?" The Doctor asked, surprised.
"Good, good, good, good." Yana replied more quickly. The Doctor turned to us.
"It's good, apparently." We followed the Doctor and Yana down the hall and I laughed slightly at his words, I always found that conversation amusing.
We were lead to a lab, where we were greeted by Chantho. "Chan, Welcome, thou!" Chantho said at to the Doctor who was being dragged by Yana to his control panel.
"Now this is the Grafictismle Exelirator!" He said triumphantly.
"Chan, welcome, thou." Chantho said to Tasha and I.
"Konban wa!" I said excitedly to Chantho, not realizing I had said it in Japanese till she looked at me confused, "Er…hello I mean."
"And this is the footprint impel system." Yana said as I started paying attention to Yana. "But we can't get it to harmonize." He said, pointing at his machine. T
"Stop it!" The Doctor warned him. I then looked back realizing Jack was flirting with Chantho, 'Drat, I missed a whole Doctor, Master conversation.'
"Can't I say hello to anyone?" He asked.
"Chan, I do not protest, thou." Chantho said, flattered.
"Of course you don't." Tasha muttered to myself.
"Maybe later, blue." Jack said, and winked at her, making her gasp.
Sudden bubble noises came from Jacks back pack and I contained a laugh I loved Martha's expression when she sees the Doctor's hand.
"Alright, let's see what we got here." Jack said, clapping his hands together jolting me from my thoughts.
A/N Let's add a question :P Who is your favorite companion?
