"After you," The Doctor said after a topsy turvy trip to Ellipsis. Lily shook with anticipation as she inched closer to the doors of the TARDIS. She opened them slowly and peaked out.

"The sky is purple!" she exclaimed. She opened the doors fully. "Are people supposed to be here waiting for us?" she asked.

"No…"

Lily walked out the doors, the Doctor right behind her. The men surrounding the TARDIS jumped to attention, hands near their foreheads in salute. Lily looked all around her. There must have been fifty men, all around her. They spotted the Doctor and pounced at him. Lily stepped in front of him and the men backed away. "What's goin' on Doc?" she whispered.

"I… don't know," he admitted.

Lily turned to face the men and addressed them, "What's going on?"

"Princess Shalycrali, we are so glad you have been returned to us! Is this your kidnapper?!?"

"What're you talking about? I wasn't kidnapped and I'm no princess, I'm just Lily Crash…"

"Oh princess, we are so relieved, we shall take you to the palace straight away. And if he is not your kidnapper, is he the man who saved you?"

Lily sighed. She assumed these men would not take no for an answer so she replied, "Sure, why not."

The men led them to a carriage that brought them to a large castle with a moat filled with violet water. The grass in the fields surrounding the castle was a yellow so bright it almost seemed neon. Lily wondered if the grass glowed in the dark. She turned to the Doctor and asked, "Who is this Princess Shalycrali they claim I am?"

"Princess Shalycrali was kidnapped a few weeks back. She looks exactly like you, though they should be able to spot the obvious differences. I mean you're not nearly as elegant or well mannered as a princess."

"Gee thanks, you sure know how to kill someone's self esteem."

"Sorry, but the differences are palpable. I mean, look at your hair. Anyways, they think she was kidnapped by the leader of a planet who wants to start a war, personally, I think she just got fed up."

"Fed up with what Doc?" Lily asked while examining her long, raven hair.

The carriage halted before the Doctor could answer. They had arrived at the palace. The king and queen came to greet them, having obviously heard the news that their daughter had returned.

They both ran towards Lily and the Doctor and hugged Lily. "What's wrong darling?" the queen asked when Lily did not hug her back.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, but I'm not your daughter."

Their shock quickly turned into anger. They started yelling and saying words that Lily didn't know the meaning of, but could tell they were bad by the way the Doctor kept wincing.

"I'm sorry, but… I'll try to help," Lily said quickly. "I'll try to help find her. Where do you think she would be?"

"She was probably kidnapped by that crazy housekeeper we had, he always took a strange interest in her. He kidnapped her, he kidnapped my baby!!" the queen said, her eyes filling with tears.

"What was his name? What was your housekeeper's name?"

"His name was Peter Crash!"

Lily's eyes widened, but she quickly covered it up. "We'll find him, right Doc?" she said, elbowing the Doctor.

"Sure, yeah, whatever."

The Doctor and Lily walked back to the TARDIS. "Why did you volunteer us for this?" The Doctor asked.

"'Cos I know exactly where she is."


AN: by the way, the Doctor in this is what I think will be the 11th, cos y'know he wanted to be ginger.

There'll probably be about another chapter or two in this. I might write a few more stories with Lily Crash in them, but we'll just see where this goes
