DISCLAIMER: I do not own Doctor Who or Young Justice.

Lolwat? HOW many people are subscribed to me now? When I first made this account I wanted to see how many people would like my work without my friends' input. And I've just been surprised over and over again – every time I open up my emails, there's always a new message saying that someone has subscribed to me & my story! Thank you sooooo much guys. Your reviews are the only reason I'm still writing this. I would've given up ages ago if I hadn't known that people wanted to know what was going to happen next! :D Anywho, without further ado, enjoy!


"You know, for someone supposedly as heartless and emotionless as you, you seem to be a little surprised."

Even the Doctor's cocky expression and tone didn't shake the shock and amazement from Batman's face. 'Surprised' didn't even begin to explain how he was feeling. Batman shook his head and went back out of the doors, only to see the same small blue box. Where did the space for that room come from?!

Batman walked back in and the doors closed behind him. He resisted the urge to go back outside again just to make sure he wasn't seeing things and walked meaningfully up to the console.

"How is that…." Batman began, an idea and realisation striking him, "Ahh. You put another dimension inside the police box, which is why you have so much room."

The Doctor pouted, "Or, more simply put, it's bigger on the inside."

"So how do you get this thing moving? I didn't see any wheels-"

"Wheels? Ha! When are you from, the stone age?" the Doctor laughed, "Oh, no. Try teleportation."

Batman nodded, "Like the Zeta Tubes."

The Doctor stopped what he was doing. "The what-a tubes?"

"Our form of teleportation. How do you think the League gets to the headquarters? In space? We don't fly up in rockets every time we want to have a meeting."

The Doctor shrugged, "I thought you flew up on Miss Wonder's Pegasi."

Batman gave him a blank stare. "We're not living in a children's book, Doctor."

The Doctor blinked and smiled sheepishly, "Ahh, of course not," then, to himself, he muttered, "Not yet, anyway. Must be a century or two too early for the pegasi. Shame. I was looking forward to having a ride."

The Doctor pulled down a lever sharply and grinned again as the TARDIS convulsed and started wheezing. Batman grabbed onto the railing swiftly and clenched his teeth together.

"What are you doing?" he snapped.

"Didn't you want to get to the Watchtower?" the Doctor said, grabbing a wooden-handled hammer and striking the console of the TARDIS harshly before discarding it again. He swung the monitor around to where he was standing and frowned.

"What now?" Batman growled, tiring of the ceaseless jerking and shaking of the TARDIS.

"We're going off course…" the Doctor said, his voice barely above a whisper.

"We're doing what?" Batman snarled, clenching his jaws together hard and nearly breaking a tooth as the TARDIS convulsed violently. Even the Doctor stumbled and looked shocked.

"Whoa, old girl!" he shouted, "Steady on!"

He stumbled back to the console, bracing himself every time the TARDIS jumped, and pulled down a lever strongly. The convulsions stopped and the wheezing silenced itself. The Doctor sighed with relief.

"What did you do?" Batman said, his eyes narrowed.

"Stopped her. We're floating around in the nether-regions of the Nightstar's galaxy right now. Not necessarily a good place to be, but hey, it's better than the black hole she was about to drag us into."

Batman lifted an eyebrow, "Your ship just attempted to fly itself into a black hole…?"

The Doctor pouted, "No! Course not! My lovely girl would never do that!"

"But you just said-"

"Someone was controlling her," the Doctor interrupted, his joyous tone suddenly becoming dark.

Batman furrowed his brow, "The Cybermen?"

"Perhaps," the Doctor said, biting his lip in thought. After a few heartbeats' hesitation he looked back up at Batman and smiled, "Shall we see where we are?"

He walked over to the TARDIS' doors and beckoned for Batman to follow him. He was about to ask what the Doctor was doing when the madman opened the doors widely. With a jolt of fear Batman held his breath and scowled at the Doctor. He just laughed.

"You can breathe, don't worry," he said. After a moment's hesitation Batman let his breath go and slowly in-took another. As he let that breath go too, realisation and admiration shone in his eyes, though they were hidden by his cowl and from the Doctor's sight.

"A compressed air-field," he said, "Clever."

"It's quite wide," the Doctor said, "You could fit an elephant between where we are standing and where it ends."

Batman gazed out at the darkness. No stars lit the way and what seemed to be endless stormy clouds wafted past. The two stared out in silence for a minute or so before something caught Batman's eye. He furrowed his brow and peered closer.

"Doctor," he started, pointing at the metallic object hiding in the clouds, "what is that?"

The Doctor looked to where he was pointing. "Not sure…"

He walked back to the console and swung the monitor around to where he was standing. He pressed a few buttons and the camera zoomed in through the clouds.

"…a ship?"

The Doctor clicked his fingers and the doors of the TARDIS closed. Batman walked up to the man and peered over his shoulder. Hidden in dust and cloud was a UFO-looking ship, mostly brown in colour with a ring of lights at its base.

"You were right…" the Doctor started, "That's a Cybermen ship."

"I thought you said they were in Happy Harbour?" Batman asked.

"They are…" The Doctor said, "This is a different ship."

"If it's a different ship, then why did they want to pull us into a black hole?" Batman asked. The Doctor pursed his lips.

"The Cybermen and I… don't exactly have a good history."

Batman advised himself against asking what that exactly implied, especially when an impish smile spread across the alien's face.

"We're going to be toying with death, but we need to find out what they're doing."

Batman's eyes hardened. "We're going onto their ship, aren't we?"

The Doctor pressed a few buttons and rested his hand upon a brown lever, grinning from ear to ear.

"Hold on! GEROMINO!"


The water in Happy Harbour was frigid, even to Robin, who was wearing his waterproof costume for this particular mission. Aqualad was swimming downward just in front of the Boy Wonder with the ease of a fur seal. He was the only member of the Team not breathing through an oxygen mask, and the only one who seemed unaffected by the cold water.

Being an Atlantean has its advantages, Robin thought to himself.

It wasn't long before they reached the bottom of the harbour. As he landed, clouds of dust and debris swirled in the water around him, impairing his vision for a few seconds. When the water cleared a brown UFO-looking ship lay before them, half buried in the sand and half destroyed. Rust crusted its edges, and it looked like the ship had had an argument with a meteor shower by looking at the size and number of dents in its rusted hull. Dead lights were imbedded in the rim of the ship, and what appeared to be a door nearly two metres in height was above said rim.

Aqualad nodded to Superboy and the young Kryptonian swam over to the door, pulling it open with ease. Cautiously, the Team followed him into the dark depths of the ship.

::Watch out for working cameras and sensors:: Aqualad said over the link.

::Currently scanning for motion and heat sensors:: Robin replied, concentrating on his wrist computer. Strangely enough, nothing popped up.

::There are no sensors at all:: he said.

::None? Can you locate cameras?:: Aqualad said. Robin looked back down at his wrist computer for several more seconds before looking up at his leader.

::No working cameras. This ship's a wreak!::

::Are you sure we have the right ship?:: Kid Flash asked, raising an eyebrow at both Aqualad and Robin. Both nodded, and Artemis smacked him across the back of the head.

::Do you see any other ships around here?::

Rubbing his head, Kid Flash scowled at her.

::Just asking::

::Come on, guys. Concentrate:: Robin said over the link.

::I can't sense anyone inside:: Miss Martian piped up.

::That's because they're robots:: Kid Flash interjected.

::Cyborgs:: Robin corrected. ::What about you, Superboy? Hear anything moving in there?::

He narrowed his blue eyes for a moment before nodding.

::I can hear them. Three, maybe four of them? I can't tell::

::Then we'll proceed. With caution:: Aqualad added, leading the way further into the ship's interior.

The water inside the ship was even colder than it had been on the trip down from the surface. Although his costume kept out the worst of the cold, goose bumps formed on his arms and legs, and he could feel the beginnings of a tension headache growing above one eye. Every surface he shone a light on reflected back blindingly, making his forming headache worse by the minute. They rounded a few corners, but the ship seemed to be mostly empty. A few bits and bobs of rusted machinery floated around, but most of the ship looked like it had been ripped apart forcefully.

::Where are they?:: Aqualad asked, turning to Superboy.

::Close:: he said ::So close that their movements are being distorted by the metal ship around us::

::Keep a look out, everyone:: Aqualad said.

::I really don't like it down here:: Miss Martian said, rubbing her upper arms ::I feel like we're being watched::

::There are no cameras:: Robin repeated.

::I'll keep you safe, beautiful!:: Kid Flash said cheerily. Artemis scowled at him, before noticing that Superboy seemed intent on something in the next room.

::Superboy? What is it?:: she asked, peering into the darkness.

::Something-:: he stopped abruptly. He paused for a few moments before shouting over the link, ::GET DOWN!::
