Summary: To save the Doctor from Area 51, River enlists Amy's help to save him but it may come at a cost, for the timelines are in flux all around them.

Author's Note: I have been keeping an eye on all the possible spoilers for Season 6 of Doctor Who. I have read and listen to the possible storylines. As I read and listened a plot bunny appeared to me via my muses and has demanded I write this story. I even tried to continue on my Silence series but this bunny was relentless. So here it is, maybe once I get it out of my system I can focus writing other stuff.

Brianne paid close attention to where they were going when she passed a room that had a sign on it that stated 'Top Secret', smiling to herself she moved her hand into her pocket and fiddled with her sonic screwdriver to get the right setting.

As she began to speak she settled her finger on the activation switch, "You know boys there is something I should tell you."

"Silence you we don't care what you have to say." One of the soldiers replied.

"You really should listen to what I am saying because it could save you from a lot of pain."

"Shut up prisoner."

"I tried to warn you but since the lot of you, are stubborn I guess you will feel the pain." Brianne pressed the activation switch which caused the sonic to emit a high pitch sound; the soldiers fell to the ground holding their ears in pain.

"I tried to warn you, maybe next time you will listen." Brianne ran to the door that she saw earlier and sonic it opened. As she moved inside she jammed the lock with another frequency. Turning away from the door she sighed in relief that no one else was in the room.

Looking around she said out loud, "I guess they are always bigger on the inside."

Walking up to the TARDIS prototype she examined the circuitry, and found that the developers were dangerously close to completing it. She moved her fingers along the console, then yanked her hand back as the lights started to blink. Hearing a dull hum in the back of her head she knew immediately that the machine was sentient.

An image of a man with long dark hair, which Brianne didn't recognize appeared, "Response message Alpha, Omega activated. Brianne, it is about time you got here."

Shocked that the image knew her name, she waited for it to continue, "I know that you are going to destroy this TARDIS but it is imperative that you don't. It has been grown from the TARDIS you traveled in and it needs a pilot. You are young enough to connect with this infant TARDIS so that it won't be overloaded. I have taught you enough that you can fly her safely from this facility."

The image looked at his watch then continued, "It is time for you to leave with this TARDIS which I am sure will be associated with a big bang. Tell me to bring this TARDIS some place safe and let it grow naturally without outside influence, I will see you soon my daughter."

Brianne watched as the image faded now knowing who was in the image, the fact that it was a future incarnation of her father sent a shiver down her spine. Shaking off the feeling of apprehension, she placed her hands on one of the ovals. Immediately she felt hum turn into words in her mind as the TARDIS spoke to her, "Welcome little one."

Smiling Brianne replied silently, "Thank you. Now what am I suppose to do?"

"Fly me out of here and make sure the people here don't cause problems again"

"I have to get the humans out of here first and set this facility back about twenty years." Brianne replied.

"Do what you must but hurry." The infant TARDIS responded.

Running to the door Brianne un-jammed the door lock and peeked in each direction of the hallway. Seeing that no one was around she moved to the right looking for a room that can give her the big bang that her father's recording referred to.

Looking at the signs associated with the doors, she paused as a large smile graced her features, "Ahh yes, this will do nicely."

Amy and River held the Doctor up in-between them as they moved along the shadows, when they heard soldiers moving in their direction they ducked into a small room out of sight.

Once in the room the Doctor collapsed on the floor breathing a bit more heavily, Amy asked worriedly, "Are you alright, you usually are not as winded as you are now."

Catching his breath he replied sarcastically, "I have been stuck in a small cell for three months, barely anything to eat, with a mattress I swear was stuffed with rocks for a bed. Yes, I am a bit weak."

"But not too weak to speak I see." Amy responded chuckling.

River knelt down and did a full body scan on the Doctor, "I should have done this before we started moving." Looking at the read out she reported, "Well nothing out of the ordinary is wrong with you. I would say fatigue is your major complication."

"I just said that." Looking at Amy he asked, "Didn't I just say that?"

River continued as if the Doctor didn't interrupt, "But your energy reserves are dangerously low, we can't keep moving at this pace otherwise you are going to pass out on us, then we will really have problems moving you."

"I do not pass out, River, I go into a restorative sleep for a long period of time." The Doctor stated.

Amy looked at River, "So he passes out then."

"Yes, he passes out."

"So what should we do?" The young red head inquired.

Looking at her map River replied, "Down the passageway and to the right is open alcove used to venting air in and out of the facility. If we can get there you two can hide in there as I retrieve the TARDIS and bring her to you."

"Sounds like a plan, lead the way." Looking down at the Doctor Amy noticed that his eyes had closed. Giving him a gentle slap on the cheek she spoke persistently, "Oi, Doctor no sleeping on the job. Come on let's get moving the sooner we are out of her the better."

Opening his eyes he smiled, "Your voice is so sexy when you speak that way."

"Can fatigue cause delusions in Time Lords." Amy asked River as they hefted him between them again.

"Not sure, I have never seen him this weak before." The older woman replied as they started to move toward the air venting shaft.

Brianne used her sonic to enter the room that was labeled 'Broiler room' immediately the heat of the space caused beads of sweat to emerge on her brow. Walking to the main console she adjusted the temperature gauge, so that the water inside the huge metal spheres would reach critical limits in about ten minutes. Disengaging the safety protocols she watched as the gauges started to rise, signaling the increase of steam pressure.

Deciding that the explosion would be enough to cripple the facility she left the room as the alarms and Claxton bells began to sound. Emerging in the hall she moved quickly back to the area that held the infant TARDIS.

Walking up to the main console of the time machine she placed her hands on the circles, "Okay let us get out of here." A confirmatory hum sounded inside her mind as Brianne typed in the rendezvous coordinates, that she and River agreed upon, before starting the dematerialization sequence.

Moving in a circle Brianne pushed the each switch activating the time matrix. As she pushed the last one, she watched, as beams of light projected into the center from the switches, converging into a single beam that moved upwards and then down through the circuitry of the walls.

Brianne smiled as the familiar sound of the rotor moving echoed through the chamber, pressing the buttons that the TARDIS illuminated on the console, the ship disappeared from the space as the countdown for the broiler explosion reached two minutes.

Arriving at the venting shaft the Doctor collapsed into Amy's arms. With River's assistance they laid him on the floor.

Pushing the hair from his forehead Amy asked, "Is he going to be alright?"

Scanning him once again River responded, "Yeah, he is in his restorative sleep mode. He should be okay in a few hours."

Sighing with relief Amy cradled his head in her lap running her hands through his hair, "You know I have only seen him sleep once. Before that night, I thought he never slept and I haven't seen him sleep since."

River smiled knowingly, "I am going to get the TARDIS I will be back here very soon."

"What should I do till you return?"

"Hold him, Amy and let him know you are here with him. He has missed you terribly."

"And how do you know that…never mind spoiler's right." Amy responded.

"Yes Amy, spoilers, I will be back soon."

River moved quickly and stealthily through the red lighted halls, reaching the door that lead to the outside she opened it and used the shadows for cover. When she was about halfway to the gate she heard the alarm bells go off causing the personnel of the compound to rush around. As two soldiers approached her she ducked behind one of the parked vehicles.

Listening intently she heard one soldier speak to another, "Report private." The older man stated.

"Sir, someone has sabotaged the broilers, the pressure within in them will cause them to explode in about two minutes we have been given the order to evacuate."

"Well hurry than private get as many personnel out of the compound and meet at the rendezvous coordinates."

"Yes sir!" The private stated as he obeyed his superiors command.

As River heard the footsteps fade she moved from her hiding place smiling, 'good ole Brianne'. Quickly exiting the ground she ran to the TARDIS she didn't have much time to get the Doctor and Amy out.

Reaching the outcropping of red rocks Brianne asked the TARDIS

"Is the chameleon circuit active?"

"Confirmed."

"Then let us land over there near the rocks"

"Agreed." The TARDIS replied.

Once the dematerialization of the new machine was complete a door appeared to Brianne's right. Moving toward it she opened it to find herself facing the desert. Stepping out she looked behind her and found that the TARDIS's exterior looked just like the rocks surrounding it.

"Very cool." She simply stated as she grabbed the binoculars from her jacket to watch the activity around area 51. She hoped that River and Amy were able to get her father out as she mentally counted down the time to the explosion.

Amy sat with the Doctor as the alarms bells rang out within the compound, pulling him closer to her chest she whispered, "Don't worry Doctor, I got you. I will keep you safe."

Almost immediately Amy felt the ground shake underneath her causing the walls along the shaft to start to crack. She watched horrified as the cracks continued toward the large air blades above her. Once there the cracks stopped, and Amy breathed a sigh of relief.

Her relief was short lived though as another explosion shook the foundation causing the large blades to be jostled and loosen the bolts holding them in place. Amy closed her eyes and spoke softly, "Please hurry River, Please hurry!"
