My Love

Chapter 12

Xenzin

Eve was looking around the room some more as she was trying to get tired again after such an exciting day. She spotted a hamper which also looked like the TARDIS. She had a dresser with a mirror, and a night stand with a lamp with stars cut out of it. Above this lamp there was a piece of ribbon with bow ties attached to them. She giggled and ran her fingers over them. There were three. A red, a blue and a purple. She reached up and ran her fingers down the silky material.

"Eve!" She jumped when she heard her fathers panicked voice call her name. She immediately stood up and ran out of her room. Her father was running toward her, so she ran toward him.

"Whats going on?" She felt the force of the fall increasing on them. The Doctor couldn't walk very well from the force of it. She found herself on her hands and knees when the Doctor reached her.

"We're crashing. Hold on." He pulled her onto him and curled himself around her. It was all he could do to protect her from what was going to happen.

The impact wasn't to forgiving. The Doctor went flying and the force of the impact threw the Doctor into the wall which knocked Eve out of his arms. One went flying into the library while the other went into Eves room.

The Doctor slowly opened his eyes some time later covered in a lap, clothing, a pair of shoes on his head and what looked like a chair…or rather a piece of it that went to Eves new table. He rubbed his head.

"Eve?" He looked around the room, and then out into the hallway. He felt his sore head and sighed. A bit of blood was on his fingertips. Not much but a bit to show that it was probably that chair that caused it. He walked into the library to see books, and shelves all over the place. They must have hit harder then he had thought. "Eve!" He called again. He heard a soft moan, and then a lot of coughing. He turned around to look over by the swimming pool. There she was laying half in and half out of the pool. Her cloths were soaked, and she was breathing rather lazily.

Eve had fallin into the pool. If one of the pool toys hadn't of fell in she was sure she would have drown. She had made it to the side, she felt exhausted, had inhaled loads of water as well as swallowed a bunch too. When she felt a hand on her back she was still coughing up a bunch of it.

"Come on…lets get you out of there and into some warmer cloths." He whispered noticing the bleeding lip that would probably swell up if he didn't put ice on it.

"I think…I broke your chair." He said pushing things off her bed and sat her down. He knealed down to get a better look at her.

"Alright now cloths." He said looking one way and gasped when he felt a tender finger touch his bleeding head. But rather then get reprimanding her for touching a wound on someone. He noticed the pained look on her face. He sat back down watching her pick up a plain white shirt and rip it in halfs winding it around the Doctors head and tied it off.

"You know your acting more like a mother then a daughter." He said. Eve let go of his head and touched her lip. Then she started to cough up more water. "Its alright…I got dust all over this shirt anyways." He said and handed her a sweat shirt and pants. "Where are we?" She finally asked when her throat stopped hurting her.

"No idea." He answered. He walked toward the console room. He looked at the monitor and then down at Eve who seemed to still be a bit cold. "Breathable, although its very hot out there, volcanic area, and the magnetic pull is very…heavy which is why we crashed so hard." He said running his fingers over his TARDIS console.

"Shall we then?" The Doctor asked putting his heavy jacket down on the railing and looked around at his daughter who slowly walked over to the door. The Doctor soon realized this was her first time on an alien planet. He held out his hand to her to take. She took it and they both walked out onto the new wonder. The rocks were pitch black with what looked like little crystals in them.

"Kind of has that certain sense of charm." He said seeing the ditch his TARDIS created.

"At least we didn't hit anyone." Eve said looking down at the ditch seeing the glass marks the TARDIS made in the dark black sand.

Eve jumped and looked around sniffing the air. The Doctor did the same and pointed in a certain direction. "I smell food."

"What do you think? Worth checking out?" the Doctor asked. Eve nodded her head and walked toward the little dirty town beyond the rocks. There were homes carved into the rocky cliff sides, they looked much like old London in Victorian times.

The people around them seemed to look more dirty thing anything else. They all look well fed, no poverty, and no old…and very few children. Eve could have sworn she only seen one infant and it had to have been born not to long ago. When the woman noticed that Eve was looking at the child she walked into a building and closed the door.

"Not exactly very welcoming community are they." The Doctor whispered and pulled his daughter closer to him feeling the need to be protective for some reason. Eve pulled her hat down a bit to shield her eyes from them. She wasn't sure if she wanted to be here anymore.

"Is that your vehicle there sir?" The Doctor turned and looked at a man with a large hat, and an official outfit. Obviously someone important here because not only was he clean, his clothing pressed, but the people coward away from him as if he were going to kill everyone and there dog.

"Yes it is…we seemed to have crashed here and its going to need a bit to fix itself. In the mean time we came out to have a look around. Perhaps get some previ…"

"You can't park it there." The man said smiling down at Eve who hid her face in her fathers jacket.

"Oh I'm sorry its just…well its stuck until she's finished being fixed. Can't pick her up you know. Very heavy. Bigger on the inside and stuff." The Doctor tried. He then noticed just how surrounded they were now.

"Papa I wanna go home." Eve was shaking she really didn't like it here.

"Alright Eve…its alright. We'll try to move her…just let us get to our ship and we'll be on our way." The Doctor went to pick up Eve only someone else grabbed her arm and pulled her away.

"We'll keep her here as…collateral until you can move that piece of space junk."

"Then can you turn off that piece of magnetic space junk you have in that factory of yours?" A woman with slightly long blond hair. Her eyes were covered and so was her mouth.

"Papa!" Eve was kicking, biting, and slapping at the hand that held her jacket. It was a metal hand on a human body.

"Eve…just stay calm, let me try to walk them through this. Its alright, just stay calm." The Doctor looked at the clean man and fixed him with a glare.

"You have something to say newcomer?"

"Give her back!" He growled and jumped hearing a loud horn blow. A boxed car drove up and four men walked out.

"I'm going to move my TARDIS just please let me have my daughter back!" The Doctor ran forward when Eve was thrown into the back seat. The four men grabbed him before he could reach the boxed car.

"Give her back!"

"Papa!"
