Susan jumped at the Doctor and knocked him to the ground as the beam of red hot air flew just over them. Susan watched as it passed and screamed in shock as it hit the still mildly glowing James in the face. The regeneration immediately stopped and James collapsed to a crouching position, both hands clutching his face. His eyes.

Susan and the Doctor both ran over to help him up and immediately ran him into the TARDIS, dodging more fire from the lone dalek.

"Are you okay?" Susan asked after sitting him on a chair and giving him a quick glance over.

"My eyes!" He was still clutching his face and the Doctor was watching worriedly.

"Susan, are you simple? You should know this, you studied Dalek weaponry. It destroys sensory functions." He said the last sentence slowly and calmly. As to not disturb James any more.

"So you're saying that the-"

"Dalek."

"Dalek made me blind? Forever?" James was growing worried and was on the verge of a panic attack.

"No, lucky for you Dalek weaponry only works when in close proximity to a Dalek. So you will only suffer lack of sight when you are too close physically or time-wise to a Dalek." The Doctor placed a hand on his shoulder and sighed. "and now I can tell they are following us since we have just taken off.

"What do you mean taken off?" James was getting more confused. He had got his head around the other concepts, although the flying blue box that was bigger on the inside and made weird noises was too hard to comprehend.

"It's a time-machine. And a space ship." Susan placed a hand on his shoulder as she spoke, although what she was saying didn't help the comforting process.

"James, I will drop you back in your time. Well, 2 days time. Where do you live?" The doctor would have spent this time comforting the man, although the only time he would be blind would also be a time that he would be running for his life and be being shot at so there wasn't a point to it.

"13 Bannerman Road, Ealing." James hoped the house didn't ring any bells as it's past wasn't the most normal.

"well, I should be able to get you near there. Within a thousand miles." James could here him smile as he said that and was glad the Doctor didn't hate him. "Here, wrap this around your eyes."

The Doctor gave him a strange feeling bandage and he did as he was told.

"It should stop your eyes from fusing and I would carry it around with you. You never know when the Daleks may show up." He patted James' shoulder before going back to the console. There was a quieter wheezing noise than before and it sounded much more controlled, before a loud thud and quiet.

"There, Bannerman Road, Ealing, Earth. You can take the bandage off in a few hours or so." The Doctor opened the door and Susan led him out.

"Thanks." He turned to Susan and back to where he hoped the Doctor was.

"Susan, help him into his home." She did as her grandfather said and James was grateful, tripping over everything wasn't the best way to get in your house.

"Goodbye!" Susan shook his hand and so did the Doctor.

"Will I ever see you again?" James asked eagerly, hoping for either answer.

"I honestly don't know." The doctor still didn't lose either his seriousness or his light-heartedness as he spoke, "Goodbye James."

And with that the were gone. What James didn't know was that he was going to be seeing a lot more blue.
