The Doctor ran out across the street, pushing past people who were taking photos of the massive destruction that had happened. He clutched his question mark shaped handle umbrella tightly in his hand, making sure not to loose it in the crowd. He called out Ace's name many times, and his eyes darted around everywhere, searching for his companion. She had told her to meet him in the TARDIS, but that was before the ship had exploded, and that was hours ago. Fire engines blasted water onto the crater, trying to contain the fire. The Doctor sat down on a garden wall and held his head in his hands. He had just had a horrid thought, one that had chilled him to the bone. What if Ace didn't make it out in time? What if she had died? What if the Zygons killed her before she could escape? A tear swelled up in the Time Lord's left eye and it rolled down his cheek. "Oh Ace..." He murmured, "Where are you?" The Doctor then placed his hat back on his head, picked up his umbrella, and began to walk...
"Ace?" The Scottish Man said, astonished about what he was seeing. Ace had just climbed into his control room, without any warning.
"How do you know my name?" Ace asked, holding out a finger in front of her and edging ever closer into this new TARDIS,
"More to the point, how did you get here and what are you doing inside my TARDIS?" He stepped closer.
"Your TARDIS...? Are you a Time Lord?"
"Yes. In that respect I am"
"What respect? Just who are you!?"
"You really wanna know?" The Man came right up close to Ace's face. She nodded, "Well... I'm the Doctor"
"You're the Doctor!? No you're not!" Ace straightened up and the Scottish Doctor walked back towards the console.
"...Oh yes, you're used to question mark Doctor aren't you. The other Scottish one!"
"Yeah...? Go on..."
"Carries an umbrella? Rolls his R's a bit? Little?"
"Alright, so you know who the Doctor is. But what do you mean 'you're the Doctor'?"
The Scottish Doctor picked up a book which was lying on the stairs and he quickly flicked through a few pages, "Allow me to explain" He threw it onto the panel Ace was closest to and it landed on a page with all of the Doctor's faces on it.
