I got 2 reviews! Thank you so so much!

Now, chapters will not be as quick from now one due to having to work through episodes but hopefully they won't be sparse either! Thanks so much for reading.

Stream Harmony: Thank you! I am glad you liked the idea and my writing! I hope to live up to your expectations.

Madness of Silence: Ah, well, you my friend have picked up on what we call a plot point. Won't mean much now but later...who knows? There will NOT be a past Doctor in this I am afraid though. I feel that the jumping through time thing has been done by a lot of people with OCs and wouldn't work with Susan.

Miracles Out of Nowhere

Chapter 4

He didn't know how to proceed. He never thought he'd see her again and as he looked into those now blue eyes, he felt stupid. He never should've left her that day. He was foolish. And he needed to make her see that. He wanted her to stay.

Susan was scarred. The last she had seen of her Grandfather was when he left her, not a word that time just the groan of a TARDIS in flight. That day, something had happened, something broke and she not forgive him. She looked squarely into his eyes, trying not to betray the swarm of emotion in her stomach.

"Susan…please, stay." He said, lamely. Amy and Rory walked up to their bedrooms, feeling they would intrude otherwise, Amy giving Rory a little push out the way because he wanted to stay. Susan sighed, bringing her eyes to his.

"You want me to stay now?" The words were double edged; one side tinged with the sorrow and nostalgia, the other side bit with anger, frustration and betrayal. He opened his hands, before bringing them back, fingertips touching as he mouthed, no words escaping.

"I…yes." He admitted. She shook her head and he reacted. "No, please, Susan. One trip. One trip, all I am asking. I know you must hate me but please. We are the only ones left."

Susan frowned, her mind spinning. One trip couldn't hurt? After all, she could go back whenever she wanted and as much as she would hate to admit it, she had missed him. Of course she had.

"Only ones? I'm sure you could find another Timelord. How's your friend, the Monk?" She bit out. The Doctor's hearts sank. Oh no. She didn't know about the Time War. How was he to tell her? If he told her, she would hate him more, walk out of his life forever and he couldn't have that. He gulped, and looked at the console.

"It's always been us though, hasn't it?" He said quietly, and Susan's face softened against her will. They had seen much. Back when he had his first face, leaving Gallifrey, seeing the universe. Oh, they had been to so many places; Earth, Akhaten and so much more.

"Yes." She took a step forward, up the steps and leant against the console, marvelling at the changes to the old girl. "It had been." She finished, sterner. The Doctor worked his jaw, trying to keep emotions at bay.

Suddenly, a loud sound blared from the console, a low, pealing alarm. The Doctor tore his gaze from Susan and jogged back, dancing around the whimsical console and setting, checking controls. Susan did the same, from the other side, working in until they were side to side. She glanced at him, and he at her but neither said anything about it. The Doctor pulled over the screen as Susan promptly walked away, not wanting to be near him. He pretended not to notice, changing the screen to show incoming signals.

Amy and Rory ran into the control room, thinking that one of them had gotten hurt or something bad had happened.

"Doctor? What is it?" Amy said, concerned. The Doctor grinned brightly.

"Distress call from a ship, can't ignore it, go and change." He said, promptly setting the TARDIS to fly to the relevant timespace dates. The TARDIS gave a small judder. "You as well…Susan." He said, more of an afterthought.

She nodded. It seems she would be coming with them but she said nothing, neither acknowledging her agreement for one last trip. Amy and Rory looked at her warily; Rory with some concern and wellbeing, Amy with distrust. She ignored them both as the three went to get changed.

Susan followed the two to the wardrobe, and grabbed a pair of jeans and a white blouse that was sheer and new. She changed, flipping her collar down, she donned the tan coat once more, rather liking it. She walked from the dressing rooms to see the ginger haired woman in front of her, out of the formal black suit and in a checked shirt, and rather short skirt and bright pink tights with boots. She was frowning at Susan.

Susan looked back,

"So, you're Amelia, correct?" Susan broached, feeling like an intruder.

"Amy. Just Amy." Amy corrected, Susan gave a hesitant smile.

"I prefer Amelia, sounds like it's from a storybook." She said, hoping the comment would alleviate some of the awkwardness.

"As I said…Amy." Amy replied. She didn't trust the girl, no matter if she was his granddaughter, how did they even know she was? So she was a Timelord, big deal. They knew nothing about her. Even the Doctor didn't recognise her. And why was she so cold towards him? Why did she leave in the first place? So many questions. Susan looked away. She had a feeling this girl would want the whole story. A story she didn't feel like giving.

"Amy?" Rory came around the corner, inadvertently saving Susan from more questions. Amy turned round to her husband and smiled as he walked over. "We should probably get back. The Doctor will be waiting, and so will that ship."

Amy nodded, and linked arms with Rory and they began to walk back to the console room. Rory looked back.

"Coming Susan?" He said, with a kind smile.

"Oh, yes." She nodded, and followed. They all hurried back to see the Doctor parking squarely where ever they were. He looked up and smiled, throwing a lever and the TARDIS hummed.

"Right, parked her. Now, let's go see where we are!" He said, excited. Susan frowned as he bounded to the door, Amy and Rory jogging behind him.

"Hang on!" She said, stumbling a bit when they all turned at the same time to face her, puzzled. "Background…checks. You forgot the background checks."

"He doesn't do background checks." Amy cut in as the Doctor was about to reply, one hand raised which he then dropped.

"Well, we actually probably should. Don't know what could be out there. All the danger and so forth." He jumped back up to the console, pulling around the screen and checking dials. "Susan…ah, over there." She walked to where he pointed, to look at the dials. "Now what does the radiation read, Susan?"

A faint smile came to her face as she remembered the night, hundreds of years ago, in the Stone Age. She read it and gave a nod. "It's reading normal…Doctor." He nodded, not commenting on her lack of 'Grandfather'.

"Well then, Susan, Ponds… we go outside and explore!" He said and they all walked out, Susan shutting the door behind her.

"Ah." The Doctor said, slightly frowning. "Not exactly Hitchhiker's Guide." He put his hands on his hips, looking around the bare wooden room.

"Are we rocking?" Rory pointed out. The Doctor jumped, and wobbled on landing.

"You know, Rory, I rather think we are." He said, jolly; always glad to be in a new place.

"So, let's go and see." Amy said, impatient, looking up and pointing at a hatch. Susan made her way over so they stood in a row, the Doctor in the middle, as he rapped tentatively on the wood. Susan stifled a giggle as Amy rolled her eyes before thumping multiple times on the hatch.

It takes a few moments before the door hatch bursts open. The Doctor grins, holding out hands at the two men above them. Susan paled slightly at the pirates. It couldn't just be a broken engine, no, it was pirates. Hang on…pirates? How could they have sent a distress signal.

"Yo ho ho!" He smiles and they stare back. His smile drops. "Or does nobody actually say that?"

As usual, it would mean the world if you guys reviewed! (I have 14 followers- so excited!)
