Endings and Epilogues
And now back to Doctor Who: Into the Vortex.
Kitty and the Fangirls
The recording session was over, and it was now 9.00 at night. Rose and the Doctor had left for the TARDIS half an hour earlier, and now pretty much everyone was gone. With the exception of Kitty, Tanya and Jade, that is. They were packing up the results of twenty-odd adolescents having a late-night party. Tanya and Jade were playing a game with the numerous styrofoam balls scattered about the place, while Kitty was untangling the cords and wires so they would fit in the cupboard.
"Well, that was an exciting night," mused Tanya. Jade hummed in agreement and tossed a clump of balls at her.
"Were those two really, you know, Rose and the Doctor?" she asked. Kitty nodded absently, shoving some folded wires into the bottom of the cupboard.
"How do you know them, then?" asked Tanya, flicking her curly blonde hair, and bending down to sweep the balls into a pile. Kitty shrugged.
"Long story. They materialised in my bedroom three years ago. I freaked out, showed them some Doctor Who episodes, freaked out some more, got possessed by an alien, stopped a Dalek invasion, and got knocked out by a purple thing. Then they ditched me."
"...that doesn't sound like a very long story," admitted Jade. Kitty tilted her head to the side.
"It sounds longer if I dramatise it," she concluded.
"Huh. Well, what now?" Tanya queried the room at large. Which was basically three people.
"Hm?" Kitty finished packing the wires, and began to fold up the tables and place them against the walls.
"Well, you said it yourself. They aren't coming back. Aren't you, ya know, itching for adventure?"
Kitty considered. "Now that you mention it, I am."
"You don't seem overly bothered that your biggest chance for adventure dematerialised 30 minutes ago," Jade told her.
"No, I'm not."
They worked in silence for a bit.
"Spill it," Tanya informed Kitty matter-of-factly.
"Huh?"
"We know you've got something to tell us," Jade chimed in.
"I do," Kitty grinned with a spark of mischief in her eye. She reached into her pink jacket and withdrew a metal object with a glowing blue gem on one end. Jade's eyes bugged out.
"You didn't-"
"Oh yes I did."
"Can someone clue me in here?" Tanya asked, slightly annoyed. She wasn't a big Doctor Who fan, like her friends, and didn't recognise the object in Kitty's hand. Kitty waved it around happily.
"I stole a prototype Sonic Screwdriver!" she declared happily. The three girls danced around happily for a bit, before pausing.
"...what do you intend to do with it?" Tanya posed.
"Ooh, that's a toughie."
The three of them considered. Jade raised her hand, and Kitty nodded to her.
"Well, as I see it, we have three options. One, we can become saviours of the world, and save it from things like brussel sprouts and early bedtimes. Two, we can become supervillains, and threaten the world with things like brussel sprouts and early bedtimes. Three, and I think this is the best idea, we can throw it in a cardboard box and bury it in the back yard."
"Why would we want to do that?" Kitty asked, puzzled.
"Because," Tanya answered. "All of your schemes either end with us running away from angry people, or things blowing up."
"Not all of them!" she protested. "Remember the time when we tried to sneak into the zoo construction site?"
"Vividly. You tried to pass us off as Rose Tyler, Donna Noble, and Martha Jones."
"Hey, it worked!"
"Only because the security guard didn't watch Doctor Who. And we got chased by an angry walrus."
Kitty crossed her arms tightly over her chest, and sniffed loudly. "It doesn't matter. That's ancient history. I have a better idea."
Jade snorted. "What, are you going to start an interdimensional assassination agency?"
"Well, actually...yes."
The other two girls whipped their necks around so quickly they got whiplash.
"WHAT?" they both yelled.
Ashlee Redsmith
"I'm sorry, Miss Redsmith," the psychiatrist informed her. "There's nothing wrong with your mind."
"But the hallucinations were so real..."
The Weeping Angel
My head hurts, though the consciousness of the Weeping Angel as it drifted through the Horsehead Nebula and straight into a black hole.
Ow, it added as its atoms were stretched and compressed a million times in a second.
David Tennant and Billie Piper
The phone call came two hours after the fangirls had posted their fundraising video online.
"David?" asked Billie. "Have you seen the video for the Japanese disaster?"
"No."
He quickly went online, found it, and watched it, before calling Billie back. "What the hell?"
"My thoughts exactly. Did you, by any chance, go to that recording session?"
"No. Did you?"
"No."
There was a long silence.
"Then why the HECK were two people that look exactly like us in that music video?"
The Doctor and Rose
"That was amazing!" laughed Rose, following the Doctor back to the TARDIS.
"Considering that they were fangirls," he put in.
"Well, yes. Considering that," she conceded.
They stopped directly in front of their big blue box, and the Doctor fumbled quickly for his key.
"...huh," he said, withdrawing the key.
"What?"
"Oh, I had a prototype sonic screwdriver in here, but I can't seem to find it."
"No doubt it'll turn up somewhere." They entered, and Rose yawned. "Why was it a prototype?"
"It had a nasty habit of doing precisely the opposite of what I wanted to do."
She laughed slightly. "That would be a problem. So where to now?"
He began flicking switches and spinning dials. "As I said before, we need to jump around until we can find our home universe!"
"Let's get started, then!"
"Oh, no. You, missy, need to get to bed. It has been a very, very long day, and I bet you are appropriately tired."
"I am not! I'm ready to go!" She ruined that by letting out another yawn. The Doctor sent them tumbling into the Vortex and turned to her.
"Are you sure you want to go up against me?"
Rose squealed, and ran off into the hallways. The Doctor gave chase, laughing too.
The sound fades out, but we can still see the TARDIS occupants, joking around and having fun. We travel out of the TARDIS doors, which are still open, and back to Kitty's dimension. A dark cloud is approaching, from the horizon.
They haven't escaped the coming storm yet... they were only in the eye of it.
The closing credits roll.
(A/N:
Aiee! I can't believe it's done. This has been my first multi-chapter story that I've actually completed. At the ending, I was trying to convey the sense that they may be having fun now, but the danger isn't over yet...
Amazingly, this isn't the last chapter. The bonus pages will be up tomorrow.
See you in the funnies!
