Some Year. Wonderland. Some Time.

The Doctor closed the door to the TARDIS and leaned against it for a quick breather as he looked over the console room. Now that he was not only back to his proper size, but he is it again and back in the TARDIS.

With a satisfied sigh, he dashed over to the console and began flipping switches and turning dials sending the time ship into the vortex. That was when he noticed the canister lying on its side at the foot of the console. "What?" He scrunched his nose as he examined it closer. "That's my hand and it's…glowing. Oh that cheater!"

He flipped the canister on its end and examined the device connected to the top. "Let's see how easy it is to find me when I reverse the feed," the Doctor said aloud and grinned as he waved the sonic over the device. "Now this'll give an opposite reading, but you won't know that."

The TARDIS landed with a soft thud and the Doctor, proud of his cleverness, walked casually through her doors and out into Satellite 5.

200,000. Satellite 5. 6:00 pm.

Down on Floor 232 of the orbital news station, Satellite 5, people bustled to and fro between the plentiful food vendors oblivious to the odd strangers that walked amongst them and completely oblivious to the highly unusual event about to take place.

Amy and Rory sat at a small table with their arms crossed wearing skeptical scowls on their faces as they listened to their eccentric friend standing across them.

"No, really," the friend said straightening his tweed jacket with an air of importance, "this is a fixed point in time and space which means no matter what happens, no one, not even me, a Time Lord, can change it."

"But, Doctor," Amy started but lowered her voice when her friend put his finger to his lips, "this isn't very impressive when you won't even tell us what we're looking for."

The Doctor looked over his shoulder and checked his watch. "Well something exciting is on Floor 500 right now but I've already taken care of that, or will rather," he said with a smug smile. "But that's not why we're here. In just a few moments, you are going to witness the most important sequence of events in all of history. So important, in fact, that the universe would collapse if it didn't take place. You just have to promise me that you will stay with me, got it?"

Amy and Rory nodded their heads.

"Good," the Doctor said with a mischievous grin. "Are you ready?" His excitement grew when his friends nodded their heads again. "Let's go."

The giddy Time Lord wiggled his fingers as he turned and quickly walked away. Amy and Rory jumped to their feet and hurried after him. The trio moved through the crowd until the Doctor found who he was looking for; a tall, lanky man in a brown pinstripe suit with messy, spiky hair. The man was looking over the crowd as the trio approached him from behind.

"Excuse me," the Doctor said and failed miserably to keep a straight face when the man turned around. "You see that woman over there," he pointed at a woman in a tan robe with her face shrouded by a hood, "that's him."

The brown suited man looked where the Doctor pointed. "What?" he asked and he looked back to the Doctor with a stupefied expression. "How-"

"No time for questions!" The Doctor jumped and pointed. "Look! He's getting away!"

The man looked at the robed woman heading for an exit corridor and dashed off through the crowd after her.

The Doctor was beside himself in excitement and grabbed a confused Amy by the hand dragging her behind him as he ran after the brown suited man. Rory rolled his eyes and jogged after them.

They emerged from the crowd nearby in time to see the man yank the hood off the woman revealing a man underneath. "Tag! You are it, Jack!" The brown suited man exclaimed in triumph and punched the air.

Jack tore off the robe and tossed it to the floor in feigned anger. "You cheated!" He pointed to the other man accusingly, but with laughter in his voice. "I masked the manipulator's signal, so how did you know?"

"Weeellll," the man said with a sheepish grin as ran his fingers through his hair. "I did have some help from…hey wait a minute!" He looked over at the man in the bowtie and tweed that helped him and frowned at the sight of the guy laughing so hard, he was holding his sides.

Amy and Rory just looked confused and offered a nervous smile when Jack and the brown suited man turned a curious, scrutinizing gaze on them. "Who are you?" The brown suited man yelled and started toward them.

"Time to go!" The Doctor said and, still laughing, grabbed Amy and Rory by the arm yanking them into a sprinting run. He wouldn't let them stop until they reached the TARDIS and once they were inside the console room, the Doctor quickly sent the time ship into the vortex.

"Doctor," Amy started as she caught her breath, "what was that all about?"

"Tag, of course!" He beamed brightly at his companion.

"Tag?" she asked and glanced at Rory who still obviously confused.

"Yes! Tag!" The Doctor looked between his two companions and smiled mischievously. "And because you are asking so many silly questions, Pond, you are it!" He spun on his heel madly dashed out of the console room.

Rory shrugged his shoulders. "Can't catch me!" He stuck his tongue out and bolted up the stairs.

Amy's frown slowly turned into a smile. "Ready or not, here I come!"
