Hey everyone. I am so sorry for not updating in so long. My life kind of got...crazy and I had some things that I had to take care of, but now I am back and ready to get back to business .
Kurt woke up to the sound of loud banging. He jerked out of bed and ran into the console room where The Doctor was fiddling with various buttons and Blaine was standing next to him and laughing at something that was probably said before Kurt stormed in.
"Oh. Morning Kurt Hummel!" the Doctor said. "Did you sleep well?"
"What's going on?" Kurt asked flabbergasted.
"The Doctor's taking us somewhere," Blaine said like an excited five year old. He walked over to Kurt and nudged his shoulder. "This is great, your first trip on the TARDIS!"
Kurt smiled and nodded. "Where are we going?"
"The planet Alcyre. They spend almost a whole year in total darkness and then for one day, their two suns align and poof... light."
"That sounds really depressing actually," Blaine remarked as he leaned his arm against the console.
"Actually," the Doctor replied, shoving Blaine's arm away "it's the opposite. To the Alcyrian's it's the best day of their lives."
"Why are we going exactly?" Kurt asked nervously. "I mean, we're not invading the planet are we?
"No, we're going to celebrate with them. Each year, the Alcyrian's have a festival to try and convince the light to stay. They call it the Festival of the Light. I was there once and it's quite beautiful."
"Why do they keep hosting a festival if they know that they'll be in darkness the next day?" Kurt questioned.
The Doctor smiled, "Hope, Kurt Hummel. We all need it at some point don't we?"
"Um as much as I love the appearance of 'Philosophical Doctor', can we go to this festival?" Blaine interrupted, tapping his foot impatiently.
"Alright then," the Doctor said as he adjusted a few buttons. "Off we go! Oh and hold on to something you two!"
Before Kurt could ask why, he was slammed to the floor as the TARDIS flew to its destination
"Here we are!" The Doctor said throwing his arms up in the air and sighing. "Welcome to the planet Alcyre! Come along you two!"
As the Doctor walked along rambling about God-knows-what, Kurt and Blaine trailed behind him, taking everything in.
"So how is your first alien planet experience?" Blaine asked as he practically skipped along.
"Honestly, it's not what I expected," Kurt replied. "I mean it doesn't seem alien."
"The Doctor doesn't look that alien either and look who has the flying spaceship," Blaine mumbled.
"Okay, okay I get it. I stand corrected," he said laughing
"Come on," Blaine said nudging the other boy. "Let's see where the Doctor went."
When they caught up to the Time Lord, he said to his companions, "There you are! Come on you two. Lot's to see and so little time to see it all!"
As the three of them walked, they came across a small black tent, which read "Fortune Teller."
The Doctor sighed and mumbled, "There's one everywhere."
"Wait how come it's written in English?"
"The TARDIS can translate any language in the universe," Blaine explained. "Isn't a fortune teller a bit cliché though?"
"Don't tell that to the Alcyrians. They're very superstitious." The Doctor said in a sharp whisper, as if fearing someone overhearing him.
Suddenly a voice said, "You three, come in,"
They looked at each other for a minute before the voice spoke again, "I don't have all day. Now get in!"
"Kurt, Blaine, stay behind me at all times. Don't speak,and don't ask questions if I tell you to run for your lives. Understand?"
The two boys nodded.
"Good. Let's go see what the fuss is then."
The Doctor slowly drew back the fabric that made up the door to the tent and stepped inside, with Kurt and Blaine at his heels.
"Ah. The stranger said. "I know you're not from here. It's obvious. You two are humans from the planet Earth. You have traveled far to be in our humble gathering? Flattering." she said to the two boys.
"What do you want?" The Doctor asked, his voice unusually harsh.
"I have heard the stories about you Doctor, defender of the universes. I never thought I would see a timelord."
"That's it, we're done here. It's been lovely chatting but we have places to be. Let's go boys," he said ushering them out the door."
"Wait," the stranger said. "Before you go, I must tell you something. You will be in great danger Kurt Hummel. Your greatest desire shall be your downfall."
"Are you okay?" Blaine asked leaning over to where Kurt was sitting. It was nighttime and the two of them were sitting on Kurt's bed sipping coffee, which was starting to become a comfortable routine for the two of them.
"I'm fine," Kurt said.
"Are you sure? You look like you've seen a ghost."
"I'm fine, Blaine. Seriously, I'm not going to let some alien fortune teller get to me."
Blaine smiled and patted Kurt's knee. "Okay, I'll believe you but I'm going to keep watch at your door in case someone tries to break in or something."
Kurt laughed, "Oh thank you Sir Blaine. My knight in shining armor!"
"No problem." Blaine laughed. "Well I'm off to bed. Night Kurt."
"Goodnight Blaine," Kurt replied.
As Blaine shut the door, Kurt sighed and ran his fingers through his hair.
Was he really in danger?
