I'm uploading both these chapters at once because this one is quite short and I want you guys to have more to read.
Polaris frowned in the observatory, sitting there.
"Great. All these years studying the book, just to learn that you leave before the rest of them. Yay." She opened up the flap on her communicator, "Ship log, 62, 743, Polaris. I'm on the asteroid of Vendri, Dasdan, Outpost 22-1. The Doctor found a loophole in the Destabilizer, and he entrusted me to deactivate it and then meet him in the Dragon Age. But I can't do this. I'm leaving this for whoever finds me. If anybody finds me. Pass this through generations, please. If you're listening to this, please. Pass this through your generations. I don't know if Vortex Manipulators are invented yet or have been released to the public yet, but pass them down to your kids, tell them this message. Once a form of time travel is out, whoever you are, get this. Get this message to the coast of Orlais, near the river bed. Near the Circle Tower of Val Royeaux, and tell him I failed. Tell him that I tried, and I couldn't do it. I'm putting the recording here, hopefully you guys have the technology to play this back. Tell the Doctor I'm sorry."
"Where's Polaris?" the Doctor asked.
"She should be here by now. Time is irrelevant to the amount of time it took to destabilize the machine." Artemis said.
"Her manipulator could've broke. She could've..." Leliana began seeing a man come from the coast of the beach. He had brown hair, and he looked like an astronaut. He walked over, holding a small little device in hand, like a usb.
"Doctor, is that you?" he asked.
"Yes... who might you be." the Doctor observed his hair. His helmet was off, he was holding it in the other hand, his hair was ginger.
"I'm a message carrier. This has been passed along since my great-great-great-great-great-great uncle's great-great-great-great-great grandfather. They've just released a time travel device ten years ago. I'm old enough to use it, and I'm here to deliver the message. How long has it been for you?" he asked.
"What do you mean?" Leliana asked.
"I left Polaris like ten minutes ago. Why?" the Doctor asked dreading the news. Had she been killed?"
The man began to play the message, "Ship log, 62, 743, Polaris. I'm on the asteroid of Vendri, Dasdan, Outpost 22-1. The Doctor found a loophole in the Destabilizer, and he entrusted me to deactivate it and then meet him in the Dragon Age. But I can't do this. I'm leaving this for whoever finds me." the Doctor slapped his hand and shut it off.
"Come on. Into the TARDIS. We're going back for her." the Doctor said, he said snapping his fingers and running into the TARDIS. Leliana and Artemis followed, and the Doctor pulled down the lever activating the TARDIS' noise. Artemis grabbed the other side, "I have it." she yelled pulling down another lever that she often saw the Doctor pulling after the other.
"Stop that you've just blown us to the Golem Age!" he yelled, pushing her off of it, putting the TARDIS back on the right path, "Here we are!" he yelled. The TARDIS sound ended as the Doctor typed a few buttons. He walked out of it, opening the doors into the observatory.
Polaris frowned and she started kicking her feet about as she deactivated the recording. She swung her foot backward and kicked it forward, yelling, "AND I HAVE TO DIE HERE! THERE WAS SO MUCH MORE FOR ME! TIME CAN BE REWRITTEN! I'M DYING HERE WHILE THE REST OF THEM..." she then noticed something she kicked forward. She bent over and picked it up. It looked similar to the Doctor's old screwdriver (she had pictures of it in her diary,) except painted different. The handle was darker. The rest of it where it was silver was painted gold, and had a few green splotches around the tip. It had small cylinders attached around the top, wave amplifiers. It also had what Polaris recognized as a fluid link and user recognition ring. She grasped around it, slipping her little finger through the ring. She immediately pointed, pressing the button, and began moving around the destabilizer frantically, using the psychic interface to scan the device. Once she found what she was looking for, she pressed the button again, directing the screwdriver to deactivate it safely. Nothing happened. She pressed it again, and again, and again, "What?" but nothing was happening.
"This is peculiar." the Doctor said, using his sonic screwdriver to scan the destabilizer, "She isn't here, and it's deactivated. It's only been five minutes since she made the recording. Come on, we're going. We're going to save her." the Doctor said. The Doctor snapped his fingers and walked into the TARDIS, and began to pilot it.
"Doctor?" asked Leliana, "What are you planning to do?"
"We're going to narrowly avoid a paradox and still bring Polaris back to me if it's the last thing I do."
"Nobody left behind." Artemis smiled.
"We're going to give her an escape plan. Artemis, pull that lever, and Leliana, type in... something. Just type something in there and hopefully the TARDIS likes it." the Doctor ran up the stairs. He came back holding his sonic screwdriver, with a few tools, "River needs this. Who says somebody can't borrow it for a time." the Doctor said, assembling a new screwdriver.
"River?" asked Artemis.
"An old friend, or a new friend, take your pick." he said, adding the new metals and colors to it.
After awhile, he was finished, "This thing has dampers, amplifiers, and a red setting. I think it's field ready." He pulled down the lever of the TARDIS activating its usual sound.
Polaris looked at it, and realized that she recognized it. She selected her journal on her armband and it fell out of the air. She flipped around in the book until she found the page on the future sonic screwdriver.
"Equipped with dampers, wave amplifiers, a user recognition ring, and a red setting... THATS IT!
"The red setting must be a more powerful setting. The blue setting does everything, or almost everything, but when it doesn't work, the red setting is a more powerful setting. Try unlocking a door with a red setting and you'd probably break the lock! My future self is a genius!"
She pointed it at the destabilizer, hitting the toggle and pressing the button. She tip turned red, and she smiled as she felt it working. It stopped it. Sparks began to fly rapidly from the destabilizer and Polaris just kept going. More and more sparks began to fly, and she heard the hum of the device fade. The destabilizer was down, but the Sonic Screwdriver was singed and destroyed.
The Doctor opened the TARDIS door, back in the Observatory.
"We're back five minutes before we arrived in this room. We plant it here, and we leave back for the beach." The Doctor gets down on the ground and tosses the device under the chair. He gets up and smiles, "All in a days work."
"Doctor, we probably should get back." Artemis said.
"Why?"
"She might get there before we do, and think that something happened to us."
The Doctor snapped his fingers and opened the TARDIS door.
"Here, Doctor how do you do the snapping thing?" asked Leliana snapping her fingers fervently.
Suddenly there was a whooshing sound and somebody appeared.
"Did I do this right?"
Polaris quickly opened the flap of her armband and programmed the date and location into her Vortex Manipulator.
She appeared on the beach, just in time to see the TARDIS dematerialize. She ran to it and began banging on it's doors, just as it disappeared.
"No! No... no no no NO!" Polaris yelled at it, "Not now!"
Polaris programmed another date in her Vortex Manipulator and disappeared.
"Did I do this right?" she asked, "Doctor!" she sighed with relief. She went over and hugged him, "I was going to leave the sonic screwdriver here... but I guess you left it here. Thanks. Sorry about that sappy message."
"It's alright. We got one trip out with the Destabilizer. It's time to go." the Doctor said, snapping his fingers and opening the TARDIS. Polaris walked inside along with the rest of the companions, and the Doctor pulled down another switch, dematerializing the TARDIS.
"That sound is so annoying." Polaris said, hitting a button on the console and pulling the lever, silencing the TARDIS' whirring sound. She typed into the typewriter then ran over and typed into the keyboard, and then looked at the monitor. She grinned as she walked over to the other side, flipping switches and pressing more button, and pulling out pulleys. The Doctor looked at her curiously, and then a lightbulb came on. With so many parallels the Doctor had no idea how he didn't notice.
"Polaris?" he asked.
"Yes?" she said, crossing her arms and leaning backward.
"What did your first body look like?"
"Why?"
"Just show me."
She typed something into her armband, and then a life-size projection went up.
"There, happy?"
A picture of a woman, with dark blonde hair, pulled back in a ponytail. She looked like an ordinary woman, but the Doctor immediately recognized her.
"You're River Song."
Hope you liked. By the way, MAJOR SPOILERS FOR SEASON 5 and 6 IN THE NEXT CHAPTER. MAJOR SPOILERS. Guys, it's River Song there's no way I can mention her and her history without spoilers, so please, please, please don't let yourself be spoiled by me. Thank you. Also I'm sorry for the short chapter. I was kinda inspired by the episode Out of Gas from Firefly for this one. I wrote this up on my iPad using a keyboard so I didn't exactly have the best to see how long it was, but I do hope you like it. The next chapter, well is more about Polaris' true identity, and Leliana and the Doctor's dinner. Hope you enjoy. Like I said, leave a review, it's the only way I know you're enjoying, and can tell what you want to see more of. Oh and if you want leave a request for a character to get killed off, because also that way I know what characters you aren't liking so much. I leave way to long of author's notes I know, but like seriously, leave a review please.
**EDIT** I reread this noticing some errors and realized I made it seem like the Doctor in this is Eleven. I have decided. This is Ten. Ten's the Doctor here. I also noticed that the way formats doesn't really look how it looked in my document program, like I had it spaced out differently and it was way more clear. So sorry about that, hopefully the lines fixed it.
