Losing Clara Oswald was very painful and the Doctor still couldn't figure out it was possible for her to die twice.
This girl was consuming his mind to the point he had decided to hide where no one would find him.
He ended up in Cumbria in the year 1207, the perfect spot for a burned out Time Lord but this vacation wasn't going to last long.
The Doctor could hear it all the way from the highest mountain top, a phone ringing.
He tried to ignore the sound but curiosity got the best of him so he walked up the hill where he had parked the TARDIS and sure enough his phone was ringing.
Reluctantly he answered it. "Hello?"
A young girl's voice answered. "Hello, I need help finding the internet."
"I'm sorry?" He said.
"The internet, I can't find it." She replied.
The Doctor rubbed the back of his neck. "Um, it's 1207."
"Really my clock says half past three. Am I calling a different time zone?" The girl asked.
"Yeah you kind of are." The Doctor replied.
"Will it show on the next phone bill?" She asked.
"I dread to think. Listen, how did you get this number?" He said.
"A woman gave it to me. She said this is the best help line in the universe."
"Thank you Martha Jones." He grumbled.
"So can you help me or what? I know nothing about computers and I need to find the Wi-Fi." The girl said.
The Doctor sighed. "Okay, click on the Wi-Fi icon."
"Okay, got it."
"Then type in your password." The Doctor said.
The girl recited the password as she typed it. "Run You Clever Boy123."
The Doctor's eyes widen. "What, what!"
"Hey I almost had it." She said.
He nearly dropped the phone. "Hold on I'll be right there!"
Clara frowned as she hung up the phone. "That was rude." She said.
Then she heard the doorbell ring. Clara headed downstairs, a man in blue suit and messy hair was standing there.
She opened the door. "Can I help you?"
He smiled. "Are you Clara Oswin Oswald?"
"No just Clara Oswald." She said.
"Don't you remember me? I'm the Doctor."
"I didn't call a Doctor." Clara replied.
"You did call me on my mobile phone." He said pointing at the TARDIS.
"You couldn't find the internet." He added.
She glanced over his shoulder. "When you said mobile phone why did you point at that blue box?"
"Because it's a surprisingly accurate description." He replied.
"Okay I'm going to close the door, now." She said backing away.
"Wait, Clara." The Doctor said as she slammed the door.
"Clara please, I just need to talk to you."
Clara sat at the top of the stairs waiting for the man to leave.
"Please Clara?" He begged.
"I'm calling the police." She thought heading for the phone.
Then she heard a strange noise coming from the top of stairs, A girl slowly walked down the stairs.
"Hello?" Clara said.
"Hello." The girl replied.
"What were you doing upstairs?" Clara asked.
"I was upstairs."
"Are you a friend of Angie?" She asked
"I'm a friend of Angie." The girl replied.
Clara quickly realized the girl looked like the cover of Artie's book.
"It can't be." She said backing away.
The girl made a mechanical whirring sound, Clara quickly became frighten as the girl's head turned completely around.
On the opposite side of the door the Doctor still trying to reason with Clara when he heard a loud thud.
"Clara, are you alright?" He said.
"I don't know where I am." He heard her say.
"Clara?" The Doctor called out.
"I don't know where I am! I don't know where I am!" Clara's voice panicked.
The Doctor immediately used his sonic screwdriver and opened her door. Clara was lying on the floor.
"Clara!" He rushed to her side. The Doctor felt for a pulse he heard her voice coming from the spoonhead robot.
He realized this was a computer stealing Clara's mind.
"Oh no, you don't." He said grabbing Clara's laptop.
"No, no, no not this time, I promise you Clara." Punching a bunch of keys he managed to reverse the download.
Clara gasped for air and coughed the Doctor held her and kissed her forehead.
"It's okay, it's alright." He said softly.
The Doctor carried her to her room and tucked her in bed.
He set out a plate of cookies and a flower for her.
The Doctor noticed a book her shelf called 101 Places To See.
He opened it and examined a red leaf inside.
He put the book back then smiled at Clara before leaving.
Clara slowly woke up, sitting up she looked around confused. She tried to remember what happened but couldn't.
She heard the door close and somehow knew the man calling himself the Doctor had saved her.
That night she looked out her window and found him busy at her laptop. "Hello?" Clara called to him.
The Doctor stood and smiled. "Oh, hello Clara! Are you alright?"
"I'm in bed." She replied still confused.
"Yes."
"I don't remember going." Clara answered.
"Do you remember anything?" The Doctor asked.
"I remember I was scared. I didn't know where I was." She said.
"Do you remember where you are, now?" He asked.
Clara nodded.
"Well then you should get some sleep. You're safe now, I promise" He replied sitting back down.
"Are you guarding me?" She asked.
"Yes I am." He grinned.
Clara smiled. "Well, I guess I'll come to you."
Clara came outside with two cups of tea. She handed him a cup and sat beside him.
"You have a nice house." The Doctor said.
"It's not mine. I'm just helping out with his kids."
"So you're a governess?" He said.
Clara shrugged. "Yeah if that's the term you want to use."
"Just like..." He started to say.
"Just like what?" She said.
"Just like I thought you'd be." He replied and continued typing.
"So what happened to me?" Clara asked.
The Doctor sighed. "Well there something in the internet taking people's minds, trapping them in the Wi-Fi. Billions of souls crying out for help."
"Isn't that basically Twitter?" She joked.
The Doctor arched his eyebrow.
"What?" She said.
"If a computer can be hacked then maybe so can a person." He realized.
"Huh?" Clara said.
The Doctor explained. "You told me you knew nothing about computers and you just made a joke about Twitter."
Clara gasped. "You're right, I've got a ton of computer knowledge in my head."
"And I've got a feeling whose ever responsible for that spoonhead probably wants to make sure all evidence is destroyed."
The Doctor's eyes widen with fear as he looked around, one by one the lights of every house started going out.
"Uh, Clara we need to go." He said.
"Go where?" She asked.
"In the box now!" He ordered.
She chuckled. "Oh I get it. This thing is your snog box, right?"
"It is not a snog box it's the TARDIS! Now move!" He said.
"Why should I?" She protested.
The Doctor leaned closer. "Look behind you."
Clara turned and saw a man standing there; she heard the same whirring sound from before and his head turned completely around revealing a computer screen.
"What?" She said.
Then a they heard a motor in the night sky, the sound was getting closer and closer.
A huge airplane suddenly emerged and headed right for them.
The Doctor grabbed her hand. "Run!"
They quickly ran inside the box and the Doctor worked feverishly at the control board.
Clara looked around in shock. "I-It's bigger..."
"I know bigger on the inside, not now!" He replied.
"Bu-but that means..." She started to say.
"Yes it's a spaceship. I'll explain everything later." He said.
"Where are we going?" Clara asked panicking.
The Doctor didn't answer instead they found themselves inside the falling airplane.
"What are we doing here?" She shouted.
"Saving lives!" he yelled.
Clara noticed all the passengers were unconscious.
"Are they dead?"
"No, they're asleep because they're connected to the Wi-Fi and it's been turned off."
They struggled to keep their balance on the inclined plane till the Doctor was able to reach the cockpit.
The pilots were out cold as well.
"Please tell me what's happening?" She exclaimed.
"I'm an alien from outer space, I have two hearts, I'm one thousand years old and I can't fly a plane, can you?" The Doctor replied.
"No!" She answered.
"Oh, brilliant!" He said.
"Well theirs a first time for everything! Hold on tight!" He exclaimed.
Clara wrapped her arms around him and held on as he took the steering and pulled back with all his strength sending the plane back on course.
They both breathed heavily and the Doctor leaned his head back chuckling.
The pilots started to wake up and noticed the Doctor. "What are you doing in her?" A pilot asked.
"Well for starters I'm turning on your Wi-Fi and I just saved your lives. Tell you what how about you fly this thing instead?" He smiled as he left.
Clara's heart was still pounding and she yelped as he grabbed her shoulder to pull her away.
Inside the TARDIS Clara looked at him. "Okay, now will you tell me what the hell is going on?"
"Breakfast." He replied.
"I ain't waiting till breakfast." She said.
He shook his head. "This ship is a time machine, you don't have to wait for breakfast."
He opened the doors and applause could be heard.
"Thank you, thank you! The next showing of the disappearing box will be this afternoon." He said as Clara passed around a fez.
"So you don't have to wait for a tomorrow?" She asked handing him the fez.
He took the money out and placed the fez on a little boy's head.
"Nope." He replied as he went back inside.
The Doctor reemerged on a motorbike.
"Going my way doll?" He grinned handing her a helmet.
Clara blushed as she climbed on.
"So why aren't we using the TARDIS?" She asked.
"Because sometimes that's not a good idea."
"Why because it's made of wood?" Clara asked.
"No because it's most powerful machine in the Universe. Don't need it falling into the wrong hands." He replied.
Clara smiled and hugged him tighter but not because she was trying to hang on.
They ended up at a coffee shop, the Doctor was busy typing on the laptop.
He glanced up and saw Clara yawned.
"Tired?" He asked.
"A little." She said.
"Well imagine how they feel, they took the long way." He pointed out.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"I'm trying to hack into their system but the technology is too advance."
An idea came to Clara. "Let me do it." She said.
"What, this? I don't think so." He smirked.
She frowned and snatched the laptop from him. "If they hacked into me then that means I still have knowledge of their computer programs."
"So?" He replied.
"So I can hack into their system in five minutes."
He grabbed the laptop from her "Yeah well I'm from space and the future with two hearts and... 27 brains!"
"Seriously, twenty-seven?" She replied.
He handed her back the laptop. "Okay, slight exaggeration."
"Five minutes, I promise. Now go get some coffee." She said.
He sighed and went to get the coffee.
Once inside he marveled at the sweets behind the counter.
After purchasing a banana muffin he noticed the customers periodically frozen in place.
Every other one introduced themselves as Miss Kizlet.
He noticed Miss Kizlet was hacking into people and speaking to him thru them.
"Hello Doctor." The cashier said to him.
The Doctor smirked. "So you're the one doing this but why." He asked the cashier.
"I am providing the knowledge that my client needs to manifest himself into this world." He said.
"What does he hope to accomplish?" The Doctor asked.
Miss Kizlet hacked to another person, a little girl. "To destroy you, Doctor."
The Doctor rolled his eyes. "If you're trying to taunt me with this charade of yours, I'm not impressed."
Miss Kizlet switched over to the male anchor on the T.V. "I can't imagine why not considering you change faces all the time."
"Enough of this, what are you planning to do now?" The Doctor demanded.
The anchor just smirked and then all the customers returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile Clara had successfully typed in record speed, every name, every person, every face.
Hacking into each computer; putting each person's work profile on Twitter, Facebook and My Space.
Then the Doctor came back but with no coffee.
Clara grinned. "I did it and with two minutes to spare."
She noticed the Doctor wasn't smiling. "Something wrong?" Clara asked.
Then he made a whirring sound, her eyes widen with fear as his head turned around trapping her inside the cloud.
The real Doctor returned and saw Clara slumped over the table with the spoonhead version of himself standing there.
He could hear Clara shouting. "Where am I? I don't know where I am! I don't know where I am!"
The Doctor glared at the spoonhead. "I'm on my way Clara, I promise."
Miss Kizlet was in her office feeling quite pleased with herself when her employee came and told her the Doctor was coming but she still wasn't worried until
she realized the Doctor was riding his motorbike on the side of building followed by a loud crash thru the window.
Miss Kizlet excused herself and walked into her office where the Doctor was waiting.
"Well won't you come in." She said.
The Doctor was in no mood to play games. "Download her."
"Impossible." She replied.
The Doctor stood over her. "Download her and everyone else, now."
"I can't." Miss Kizlet said.
He walked around her. "Yes, you can."
"It's hardly worth it only a small percentage of people will live." Miss Kizlet replied.
"It's better than the hell they're living in, now. At least they'll be free."
"I won't do it." She said.
"Yes you will because I'm going to motivate you." He said tapping her nose.
Miss Kizlet scoffed. "You silly man. Why are you here? Why come here at all?"
"I'm not." He answered.
"What?" Miss Kizlet said confused.
"I'm still at the coffee shop, lovely spot." The Doctor replied finishing his coffee.
"You see I'm old fashion, you hack into people but me I hack into technology."
The fake Doctor removed his helmet.
"Here's your motivation." The Doctor said from the laptop.
With a simple push of a key causing the spoonhead Doctor to activate and trap Miss Kizlet into the cloud.
He then programmed the spoonhead to hack into the employees and convinced them to download all the people trapped inside the cloud and set them free.
Clara moaned softly as she slept and the Doctor stroked her hair before leaving.
Clara woke up and realized the Doctor was gone.
"Doctor?" She said searching around but he was gone.
Miss Kizlet told the client she had failed but he felt that he had fulfilled his goal and returned all the employees to their normal selves including Miss Kizlet who became the little girl she originally was when the client found her.
Clara was back at the house caring for Angie and Artie as usual when she spotted the police box outside.
She quickly went outside and walked into the TARDIS.
"So he comes back, does he." She said.
The Doctor smiled. "Tell me something why the book. You kept it all those years but you've never been to any of those places."
"I kept the book because I was going to travel." Clara replied.
"But you didn't instead you're helping his family."
She shook her head. "My mum passed away and they helped me and dad so when he lost his wife I did it as a favor."
"I wish I could like that. But why don't you come with me? Show you all those places and you'd be back the same day."
Clara smirked. "Travel with you in your snog box?"
"It is not a snog box!" The Doctor protested.
"If you say so. Tell you what come back tomorrow and I'll have my answer for you then."
The Doctor nodded. "Fair enough."
She smiled and headed for the door.
The Doctor stopped her and asked her. "I found a leaf in your book. What's it for?"
She smiled. "It's not a leaf, it's chapter one." Clara replied as she left.
The Doctor smirked and started the TARDIS again and went on his way.
