A.N- Hey guys, how are you all doing? I just wanted you to know that I made a short story so you should all check it out and tell me what you think. Also, I changed my summary, which was written by an amazing fan, TheDoctorFiona. All credit for the summary goes to her. Hope you enjoy this chapter which takes a little break from all of the adventure. R&R! XD

The Doctor walked into the kitchen, to see both girls angrily staring at the empty refrigerator.

"So what's the problem?" He asked.

"Where's all the food? Doesn't the TARDIS just make food appear?" Clara asked.

"Something could be broken." Scarlet said.

"Or she could have run out." The Doctor added.

"Run out? Has this ever happened before?" Clara asked.

"No but-"

"So you're saying we've been eating food that is hundreds of years old?!" Clara started getting angry.

"Maybe, I'm not really sure how it works exactly. Time Lords don't need as many nutrients as humans so I don't really try to figure things out that involve food." Clara looked angry. With The Doctor, Clara never felt that she had a deficiency of something. Now that she was extremely hungry and there was no food...it just felt weird. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"Well you know what this means." Scarlet jumped into the conversation. The Doctor and Clara turned to her direction. She smiled.

"We get to go food shopping." With that, The Doctor started to argue.

"Why don't you to go yourselves, I can't bother myself with such domestics."

"No, your coming." Clara said sternly.

"But I don't want to go!" He whined.

"Come on, it'll be fun." Scarlet smiled, "I haven't done domestics in a while." The Doctor tried to protest, but Clara pinned him down while Scarlet flew them to a grocery store. It was not until they entered the store did they realize their big mistake.

"Oooh bananas!" The Doctor ran off as he saw the tower.

"So where are we?" Clara asked Scarlet as she got a chart.c

"Oh, somewhere in America, 21st century... I think the south because of the heat. I would guess Arizona." She said, smelling the air.

"You have to stop doing that, it's pretty creepy."

"What? It's a Time Lord thing, you're just jealous." They pulled over into an aisle.

They went around to get basic needs; bread, eggs, meats, and snacks. They hadn't seen The Doctor in a while, the store was pretty big so he must have been infatuated with everything. Maybe domestics were too much for him to handle. Scarlet chuckled in her head. The man who could save planets couldn't pick out food for himself. Then she though of something.

"Crap." Scarlet said.

"What's wrong?" Clara asked, picking out which apples were the ripest.

"Let me go find The Doctor, you keep shopping." Scarlet left the area Clara was shopping in, then sprinted to find The Doctor. They were all caught up with grocery shopping that they had forgotten to get money. She looked around until she finally found The Doctor at the flower section.

He had already gotten his own cart filled with lots of fish sticks, custard, bananas and some others foods with bright colored packaging. He seemed to be arguing rather loudly with the woman at the counter.

"Doctor, I need to borrow your sonic." The Doctor turned around quickly and pulled Scarlet to the side.

"Scarlet, I think the woman at the desk is a Carrionite!" He whispered to her.

"I don't know what that is, but I can assure you she's probably not." Scarlet sighed. Why did The Doctor have to act so stupid when he was out in public.

"But look at her wrinkly skin!" He said, trying to contain himself to a whisper. Scarlet put her hands on his shoulders.

"Look, I know you just want a proper adventure, but you're not going to get one here. We need to buy food and go back to the TARDIS, the more you cooperate the faster we will be back to adventuring." The Doctor sighed.

"Okay."

"Go put all that food back, except for maybe the bananas and go find Clara." He started to walk away. "And can I get your sonic!" He seemed down, but he tossed him her sonic anyways. Scarlet guessed he trusted her enough with it. Now to go rob a bank!

She felt bad about it, she really did, but they needed the money. She tried to assure herself this as she pointed the sonic at the ATM. About 200 hundred dollars came out and landed into her hand. She held the crisp green bills in her hand.

With everything around her British all the time it was nice to feel something American. She was so infatuated with the money that she didn't see the cop standing right behind her.

"Excuse me ma'am, can I see your bank card?"

The Doctor was a little disappointed when he arrived to Clara's side, since she agreed with Scarlet that they didn't need and frozen fish fingers. It was also really boring. Clara was too focused on getting food to strike a conversation with him. What could he talk about when picking out food? He felt so boring and human. He sighed as they continued shopping. How long would this last?

"Have you seen Scarlet?" Clara asked.

"Yeah, I saw her a little while ago."

"Did she say anything was wrong?"

"No, she just asked for my sonic."

"And you gave it to her?"

"Yeah, I trust her, sort of."

"Great, so we can't contact her, did she say where she was going?"

"No, but with all these things with prices labeled on them, I think she went to get money."

"That's what she was so worried about. I guess we can't leave here until she comes back." She took a pause to look at the meats. "What kind of meat do you like?"

Scarlet froze when she saw the police officer. She remembered what her mom always told her if she was being questioned by a police officer. Answer all of their questions and don't look guilty. What her mother didn't know is that she actually was guilty. She stood there and smiled. The officer got closer to her. He had short blonde hair, hazel eyes and a stern look on his face. Before he got too close, Scarlet slipped the sonic into her bigger-on-the-inside pockets of her tool belt. She smiled at him.

"I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" She asked with an innocent voice.

"Could I see you bank card?" He said, slowing it down like Scarlet was some kind of idiot, which she wasn't.

"Yes of course." She tried to flirt, although she wasn't that good at it. She didn't have much experience. She pulled out the psychic paper she used on the cruise form her tool belt pocket and handed it to the officer.

"This is a fake." He said almost immediately.

"What makes you say that?"

"I'm not an idiot ma'am, If you used this card to get that money wouldn't it still be in the machine?" This guy was pretty smart. But she guessed that they wouldn't give idiots a gun and a badge. "You're coming with me." He grabbed her arms.

"Wait! I need to get back to my friends!"

"What is this money for, a pot deal?" He snatched the money out of her hand. "Is 'your friends' slang for your drug dealers?"

"No! Do I seriously look like someone who does drugs, seriously?"

"Stolen money is stolen money. Get into the car ma'am." She ducked her head into the car. Great, now she had no money and she was arrested. What was she going to do?

A.N- Sorry, but no Jack and the mysterious pink liquid this chapter, but after I finish this plot. I promise!
