Chapter 3

Both Katie and Jareth were in Katie's room as The Doctor was in the console room waiting for Rose to come. As Katie was in her room she was looking for something to wear Jareth was sat on her bed thinking about his family and eager to get home to see them it felt like a lifetime since they had been on Atinitie as Jareth sat Katie spoke.

"So going back home huh?" Katie's voiced boomed from the inside of her walk-in wardrobe

"Yes... I'm worried about them Katie... the outsiders we haven't heard from them in a long time"

"As the future King of Atinitie it is your job to worry whether it's your family or your people... so what's the weather going to be like?" Katie asked him as she poked her head out of the door looking at him he looked up and saw her

"Why?" He asked curiously

"Well last time it looked lovely is it always like that? I mean I could be hot and I could be wearing trousers or it could be cold and I could be wearing a skirt..." Katie said as she disappeared back into the wardrobe

"It's not the same all the time Katie a bit like Earth it feels like a lifetime since I was back home"

"A lifetime of running from danger and excitement" Katie shouted from the wardrobe

"Yea... you could call it that but you're used to it"

Katie reappeared again holding a red top

"Of course I am..." She replied with a smile and then quickly disappeared again only to step back out of the wardrobe with a purple short sleeved top and a white skirt she put them on the bed as Jareth stood and walked towards the door.

"And where are you going?" Katie asked him

Jareth looked at her

"At the forest, you said we shouldn't do this and it's impolite for an Atinition to watch a lady he's not married to undress think of what your mother would say if she knew and my people I'm their prince"

"I love it when you go all cultural on me thinking of your people nobody will know they're not here," Katie said with a cheeky smile

"Katie...you know the reason... this could be the last day we could be together this moment anything could happen with the outsiders..." Jareth said and they both hugged "I don't trust them.." He whispered in her ear

"I know... everything will be fine" She whispered back

"I gotta go..." Jareth said as he pulled away Katie kept hold of his hand but let go slowly she didn't want to let him go and watched him leave the room she was worried about him.

The Doctor was sat in the jump seat but jumped up when Rose walked into The TARDIS he walked around the console to where Rose walked up to the console Rose wanted to speak to The Doctor but Jareth came down the steps The Doctor looked up at him

"Where's Katie?" He asked

"She went to her room to get changed Jareth replied as The Doctor looked back at Rose

"Molly?"

"They say she'll be fine she'll need time to recover"

"Good she'll be fine Rose"

A few moments later Katie walked into the console room wearing her purple top and white skirt with grey leggings and a brown leather jacket she also wore trainers and her hair was tied up. As Katie walked in Jareth looked up at her and Rose looked at him as The Doctor looked at Katie.

"Ready then?" He asked her

"Yes"

With a nod The Doctor walked around the console and pulled a lever The TARDIS was off into the vortex as everyone had to grab on to something as they did Jareth looked at Katie as she looked at him they both smiled at each other as The TARDIS landed on Atinitie they all fell to the floor and got up Jareth walked towards the door.

Rani was sat at a table eating when she stopped she had heard the sound of The TARDIS and knew it had arrived on Atinitie she knew it had to be The Doctor with the prince she was now worried that her plan wasn't going to work and was concerned for Ashtac he was leading his men on the city and knew she needed to help so she stood up and walked out of the room.
