Katniss and the Doctor

by Rhapsody211

"See! I told you, not hallucinating! No traced of tracker jacker venom-" he's stops and glances at me when I hold up a finger. "Who the hell are you?" I ask, trying to discreetly reach around for some thing to defend myself with. The strange man smiles. "I'm the Doctor."

Katniss now sat gloomily in the white chair, trying to contemplate everything he had just ranted to her about.

"Doctor?" She asked, still wary of the crazed man, who had said he was 1,000 years old,(well, give or take a few years). The Doctor grinned wildly when she said his name,

"You still haven't said the thing most people say- I'm still waiting!" Katniss furrowed her brow. The lights in the room were starting to give her a headache.

"You mean how the TARDIS is bigger on the inside? Oh, I've seen plenty of Capitol cupboards like that."

"What!?" The Doctor flummoxed. "No, not truly though, just a trick with mirrors." Katniss shrugged. She wished desperately she had her bow, she felt naked without it.

"Well, I wanted to ask," she blinked a few times, "why me? Why did you only save me?"

"You were the one who was closest to dead. I couldn't take ALL of you, I wouldn't want the killing games going on in my TARDIS!" Katniss grimaced. He was the Careers in here, and they'd assume it was part of the arena, killing them all in seconds.

"Doctor, can we go back? It's just, there was this little girl who helped me, Rue was her name, and I want to get her before she is killed." The Doctor looked at her sympathetically.

"She does look a bit like your sister," he mused. Katniss was a bit taken aback he knew exactly what she thought, but then again, he was really old. Katniss took a deep breath,

"And Peeta. I- I think he is dying as well." The Doctor came and sat next to her. She recoiled. It was very tight for space, but the Doctor didn't seem to mind.

"I don't know if she can take another trip through that nasty magnetic field." He rubbed the chair beside him.

"Please?"

The Doctor looked at her for a moment, then sighed.

"I suppose the Capitol can wait." He jumped up and began a frenzied dance around the consol. "Come on Baby!" He hollered. "Let go!" With that, the craft dipped downward and sped, with Katniss desperately gripping the chair. The Doctor laughed rambunctiously, and flipped a lever. The TARDIS was now crashing.
