Hello! Here's the next chapter, and we've got more references! I challenge you to find them all haha. Anyway, enjoy!
Amy and Jack slowly stood up with one another, their frightened eyes transfixed on the broken window. Amy let out a relieved sigh as the threat seemed to have gone. "What was that?" She asked as Jack walked to the wall and carefully took out the dart that had been shot into it. "I don't know," he replied as he inspected it, "But let's find out."
"Do you get this a lot? People targeting you?" Amy enquired as they were in the high-tech room. Jack was busy typing on one of the computers, as the dart lay on a small platform that glowed a fluorescent yellow. "Quite a lot, yeah," Jack replied as he focused on analysing the dart, "But I survive anything. Literally." Amy wondered for a while before asking again, "So, how old are you?"
"I don't know," Jack answered, "But I'm younger than the Doctor, if that counts." He gave her a grin which made her chuckle.
"OK, then," she laughed, then frowned at the screen, "That doesn't look good."
"No, it isn't," Jack agreed, "Oh, and I was having such a nice day!"
"What is it?" Amy asked curiously as she inspected the creature that had appeared on the monitor.
"A creature the Doctor's told me about," Jack replied as he got up and opened one of the black wardrobes where weapons were neatly shelved, "They're not to be shown any mercy."
"Why? What have they done?"
"They destroy entire planets by killing the people who are most likely to truly defend the planet, then take all its leaders and slowly the planet starts to descend into chaos. If Earth's their next target, then there's trouble."
"Please tell me you're just trying to entertain me."
"Sorry! Since I can't die; I'm the first target. They'll be trying to get rid of me first. Top priority. We ought to be careful. Talking about targets, time to call an old friend." Jack chucked a small tube to Amy and put the one he still had in his pocket.
"What's this?" Amy asked as she followed him out of the room.
"The creatures aren't humanoid at all. They're a bit like Sontarans or Slitheen; they have the same gene pool. This targets their weakness and kills them all in a split second. Be careful using it though – aim and attack the wrong person and the whole world could suffer."
"OK, you said old friend, what old friend? Someone you married or something?"
Jack laughed, "I wish!"
"Who is it then?"
Jack grinned at her and dialled a number into the phone. "Sarah Jane? Captain Jack Harkness at your service, how's it going?"
Amy gaped. Sarah Jane. The Doctor had mentioned a Sarah Jane. He seemed rather fond of her.
"Ah, well, we've got a bit of a problem. I hope you've still got that little tube I sent you a while ago because they're after us. Good luck to you too."
Jack put the phone back down and grinned at Amy.
"You said Sarah Jane, did you mean Sarah Jane Smith?"
"Yeah, did the Doctor tell you about her?"
"Yeah, especially after...Oh, what was it? The Shansheeth incident!"
"The Shan-what incident?"
"Never mind, but she sounds amazing. Actually amazing."
"That, she is!"
"Do you know where she lives? I'd like to meet her."
"I'll give you her details afterwards. Now, we best get looking for the trouble before it finds us."
"Isn't that always the way?" Amy said to herself as they headed to the door of the flat.
