Donna walked down the endless corridors whilst carrying a hot cup of tea in her hands. When she finally made it to the console room. The TARDIS bumped, meaning that they have landed, which was rather odd as they had floated in the vortex for over a month now. Donna walked through the doors expecting to see the Doctor standing at the console, but he wasn't. In fact he was walking out the door.

Donna had arrived just in time to see him leave. Giving no notice to anyone else on board. Donna was about to call out to him but he had already managed the shut the door and leave. Donna made her way up to the console computer to try a take a look at where they had landed.

It looked to be a normal town, perhaps somewhere in England, judging by the black taxis. Just then the doors opened and Rose stepped in.

"Did we just land?" she asked

Donna set down her tea "Yeah and the Doctor just left"

"Where did he go?" said Rose confused

"Not too sure, let's find out before he gets away" Donna ran to the TARDIS doors before she pulled them open. Rose followed in hot pursuit as both women ran from the TARDIS and out into the busy London town.

"Oh, thought this was London" said Donna

Donna and Rose spun on the spot to try and see if they could spot the Doctor "Do you see him?"

Donna didn't reply as she focused on the hundreds of people now walking around her, until she then spot a flash of brown on the opposite side of the road. Donna strained her eyes to focus. The figure then appeared behind another, revealing himself to be the Timelord they were searching for.

"There he is!" Rose spun round to see and immediately ran after Donna. The two women ran across the street and kept on the Doctor's tail for most of the time. They did in fact lose him for a moment until he appeared at a set of lights.

"Where is he going?" asked Rose

Donna shrugged her shoulders "Maybe he just wanted some air"

"Wouldn't he have stayed near the TARDIS?"

"It's the Doctor we're talking about" Said Donna as they crossed another road and watched as the Doctor entered a local shop.

"I'm just surprised to see him so far from the TARDIS, to be out in the open like this after what happened" Rose stopped Donna when she tried to enter the shop. The shop was too small and so they would have been caught almost instantly.

Instead they sat outside and looked in through the window. The Doctor was standing at the counter being served by an older man. On the counter were a bag of sweets and a carton of milk.

"I didn't know we were out of milk" said Rose

Donna looked at her "It's cause we're not. I looked this morning. There is enough for another week" Donna looked through the window once more "What's he up too?"

The Doctor was still being served when a voice came from behind them "What are you two up to then ladies?" Donna and Rose spun round and were greeted by a police man

The girls stared in shocked before they stood up straight and fixed themselves. Correcting their posture and acting all innocent. "Nothing, just checking out these windows, they're so clean ha ha, so clean" Said Donna, clearly not good at lying on the spot, especially to an officer of the law.

Rose gave her a stern look before she took her hand "We'll just be going now" The officer watched them as they walked away in the direction they came from. "It's ok, we need to get back to the TARDIS before the Doctor does anyway, or else he'll take off without us"


Martha had made herself comfortable on the soft flooring next to the boxing ring. She was surrounded by her notes, textbooks from her old university and books she had taken from the library.

She was researching anything about Timelord Trauma, post-traumatic stress and depression; she just wanted to get ahead of herself in case anything might happen. Touch wood it won't.

She jumped as a loud bang came from above her. Martha looked up to see the Doctor on the floor of the boxing ring and Jack standing above him. She said nothing as he immediately got back up onto his feet and continued.

Jack and the Doctor had continued with their session together and have done a variety of activities each day. Today, Jack had suggested focusing on physical action to help the Doctor vent his anger and so decided to do some kick boxing; Martha had decided to watch just to take notes in case of anything useful for her talking session with him.

The fact that the Doctor refused to be on the ground for more than two seconds told Martha that he was willingly involved and that his anger could either be under control or is getting the better of him.

Jack held up the pads attached to his arms, signalling for the Doctor to strike. The Doctor stepped forward and with his bare foot, raised his leg as high as he could and kicked the pad. Jack held the pad higher and shouted to the Doctor

"Again!"

The Doctor complied and twisted his body to kick the pad, once he had achieved this he twisted his body back to stand in his starting position

"Again!"

This continued for quite some time and when it got to the point that the Doctor must have hit the pad around twenty times without stopping, Martha was questioning whether she should interfere. Until Jack stopped and lowered his hand.

"Good, take a breather. We'll do some stretches and later we'll pick it up from here"

The Doctor merely nodded before he pulled of his gloves and jumped down from the ring. Martha smiled at him, happy about his progress. The Doctor made his way over to a bench where a jug of water was perched. Immediately the Doctor's mouth went dry when he saw the cold water, the ice floatign inside making it even more ice cold. The Doctor would have poured it over his head if he could, but thought rationally and poured himself a cup.

"How are you feeling?" said Martha as she approached him from behind.

The Doctor sat on the bench before she sat next to him "I feel sweaty, I don't like it"

Martha laughed at him as he tried to wipe down his sweat soaked face "Yes you are, but that's what's nice about getting a long shower after wards. Cool yourself down"

The Doctor hummed in agreement before he gulped down his drink. Jack was setting up the mats for a stretch as they watched from the benches. "How are the nightmares?"

The Doctor looked away from her, not wanting to answer "I know this isn't our session together but I just want to know how they've come along. Are they still there?"

The Doctor sighed "Every night, when I actually sleep" The Doctor finished his drink before he got up and made his way back over to Jack. Martha watched him go, upset that she couldn't get much out of him, then again, it wasn't her session and was probably wrong of her to interrupt his time with Jack.

Instead she let him be and watched as jack instructed him to lay on his back whilst Jack stretched his leg for him. Martha watched until she then noticed a head appear in the doorway. She looked closer to see Donna waving at her to come over.

Martha frowned at the red head before she set down her notes and exited the Gym. Once outside she was greeted by Donna and Rose, both women wearing hysteric looks on their faces.

"What's wrong?"

"Right well first we need to tell you what happened this morning" said Donna "Let's go somewhere else" Donna led the way to her bedroom before they entered and closed the door behind them.

Martha sat on the bed eagerly waiting for them to spill the news "Come on tell me"

Donna sat next to her whilst Donna sat in front of them on the arm chair "Well this morning. Me and Rose followed the Doctor to this shop, after he landed unexpectedly and left without a word to anyone"

"Oh yeah he told me about that, said that we were out of milk" said Martha

But Rose shook her head "He wasn't going for milk. He got something else and we had to leave before we found out what it was"

Donna spoke up "So we waited for his session with Jack before we went into his room and searched his coat pockets"

Martha frowned "What did you find?" starting to get worried

Rose looked at Donna before looking back to Martha "I think he needs a lot more help than we think Martha"

"How so?"

Just then, Donna threw something on Martha's lap. Martha looked down to see what it was and when she saw, she gasped "He's smoking!"

"That's what we found in his pockets, along with another empty packet and a lighter. He's been smoking for a while and he thought he could hide it from us" said Donna

Rose leaned forward "He's clearly not coping with this as much as we thought he was. He needs help"

Martha picked up the packet of cigarettes and sighed "I'll have a word with him tomorrow. But he's not going to like it"
