Kris's POV:

I knocked on the door to the Police Box. I had kept an eye out for the Doctor while I was working, in case he stopped by. After work, I walked through the entire park to find him. I had decided to try his strange box before looking in any of the other parks.

"Hello." the Doctor said, answering his door.

"Hi!" I said. "Can I come in? I was hoping to talk to you."

"Sure!" He moved aside so I could enter. I tried to keep myself from gaping. It was just so big…

"I just thought you should know that Dinosaur was closed today. They wouldn't even let anybody into the courtyard, but that's probably because there are dinosaur sized holes in the building where the doors used to be."

"Makes sense." he said, watching me with interest.

"The weird part is that, at least according to the rumors floating between the Cast Members, is that the dinosaurs are missing. They aren't the only ones. The Yeti from Expedition Everest is gone too."

"All right then. I will definitely keep that in consideration." he said. I took that as my cue to leave & started to walk back towards the door…

Except that wasn't really why I had come back.

"I, uh…I told my roommate that I might be home late tonight." I said. "Just in case you needed any more help."

The Doctor looked up from his work. "You don't have to."

"I know." I said. "But it's like you said. I know how the attractions work, & I know the parks. I was lucky enough to grow up in Orlando, so every important moment was always celebrated in the parks. There's something magical here, & all my life, all I've ever wanted was to be a part of that magic." I took a deep breath. "I want to help…& I think I know where we can start."

The Doctor smiled. "Where?"

"If all the rumors are true, then it seems like something is affecting the AAs…& there's a ride in this park that has about 300 of them in it."

"All right." The Doctor said, putting whatever the device he was working on in his pocket. "Let's go!"

"It's almost spring break. Magic Kingdom doesn't close until midnight, so we have a few hours to wait."

The Doctor smiled. "Unless you want to jump ahead."

"You have a time machine?" I asked as we walked through the now empty park.

"You've mentioned that a few times." the Doctor said.

"But how on Earth did you get a time machine?"

"Oh, look. We're here!" The Doctor started walking through the line for It's a Small World. I tried to focus on the task at hand.

"Ok, so this will be a little bit different since it's a water based ride." I said. "I'll switch it on maintenance mode, & then we can use the catwalks that maintenance uses for inspection."

"No, that's too high up. I need to be close to the ground to catch it."

"Catch what?"

"Whatever I heard last night." The Doctor pulled a device from his pocket. "This is my Technological Anomaly Scanner. It scans for technological anomalies." he said with a smile.

"But the ride won't actually move when it's in maintenance mode."

"Just leave that to me."

After setting the ride to maintenance mode, the Doctor was waiting for me by the first boat. He let me board first.

"So how are you going to start the ride?" I asked after we sat down.

"With my sonic screwdriver." He pulled out the small device that I had already seen him use.

"How can a screwdriver start a ride?" I asked. To my surprise, the ride started moving!

"Because it's sonic!" he said, as if that was enough of an explanation.

All was quiet until we got to the Thailand & India display. The scanner started beeping like crazy. The Doctor stopped the ride & jumped out onto the display.

"Doctor, be careful!" I called, before jumping after him. I followed as he ran down towards the Taj Mahal. He handed me the scanner as he pulled out a glass jar. He dove behind the Taj Mahal…& missed. The scanner stopped beeping.

We got back on the ride, & had similar luck at the displays for Africa & South America. I started to relax. Maybe nothing would happen tonight…

Then we got to the display for Hawaii & the South Pacific.

I was climbing up some of the big rocks in the background, trying to keep up with the Doctor. I saw him scoop down to try & make the catch.

"Gotcha!" He held it up to show me. It looked like a long sliver robot, small enough to fit in your hand.

"What is that thing?" I asked.

Just then, the music to the ride started playing.

"That's not supposed to happen." I said. We started back the way we came, but the hula dancer dolls were dancing towards us, blocking the way back to the boat.

The other dolls started to come to life as well. A whole boatload of them was entering the room.

The Doctor & I shared a worrying look.

How were we going to get out of here?

Looks like the Doctor has managed to catch an important clue…Any guesses as to what it is?
