"What does this one do?" Vincent grabbed for a brightly colored lever, but River quickly pushed his hand away.

"It's very dangerous to just pull and press things, dear brother," she chided. Vincent was twelve years old now. On the cusp of puberty and becoming more annoying by the minute. He had Rory's hair and Amy's eyes and River didn't think she had ever seen a more adorable little boy.

"The Doctor said I could look at the console!" he protested, clambering up to the seat by the view screen.

"Look at, yes. Touch and cause to explode, no." She took a moment to explain a few things, such as the button that would scan the environment for information relating to the air and toxins that might be contained in it. She explained the function of the time rotor, the thermo-couplings below their feet, and how to choose which date and location to travel to.

The Doctor ran inside and bounded up the stairs, Amy and Rory following him. They were older now, but not quite old enough to have many lines on their faces. "Mom, Dad, can we go on an adventure?!"

"You've got homework to do," Rory frowned. "Did you forget about that?"

"Daaaaad, it's a time machine!" Vincent protested.

"A very unreliable time machine," Amy added, patting the console affectionately.

The Doctor sputtered. "The TARDIS is the greatest time traveling device that has ever existed. She can do anything."

"She couldn't take us to the moon and back in time for dinner," Amy countered.

The time rotor began to move.

"Oh, no! No, stop!" Amy yelled, being thrown back against the railing. Vincent whooped with joy as the time machine spun through the vortex, coming to rest within moments.

Rory peeled himself off of the glass floor. "Everyone alright?"

"Better than alright, that was amazing!" Vincent crowed, jumping from the chair and running toward the double doors.

"Vincent, wait!" The Doctor followed him out the door before either Amy or Rory could stop him.

"Woah..."

The Doctor stepped out onto the moon's gray surface. It was cool, but not unpleasantly so.

"...Why aren't we freezing to death? Or dying of lack of oxygen? Or-"

"TARDIS shield," the Doctor explained.

"Oh," Vincent murmured, staring at the Earth. It was green and brown and the bluest blue he had ever seen, aside from the TARDIS herself.

Amy, Rory, and River exited the time machine behind them, marveling at the scene.

Vincent nudged Amy. "Take it back, Mom."

"Hey now," Amy replied. "She still has to get us back home."
