A/N Hey again! The papaya is back! Right so anyway, this fic is going to be structured like a Doctor Who episode. I've recently watched 'forest of the dead' again and realised how much I ship the Tenth and River( if you don't ship them then this fic is probably not for you.) I'm not a big River fan, but for some reason I ship these two. I'm also bringing Rose along, can't seem to stop writing fics with her. Oh and I forgot to issue a disclaimer for my last story( me being an idiot) so ummm… if this disclaimer could count for both fics? I don't want to end up in jail( nervously laughs.) Anyway, please comment and if you've got some constructive criticism then fire away because I'd also like to improve my writing( don't criticise me for the unnecessarily long author's note). Just don't be too mean and I should probably stop rambling, although I know half of you will have skipped the author's note.
Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who. I'm too random and weird.
She put on her lipstick, a seductive dark shade, and brushed her wild frizzy hair behind her ear. Stroking the bed she was sitting on she smiled to herself. Not too long before she got to stretch her legs! She looked through the bars to a prison guard, pacing back and forth outside her cell. He was new. Which was a good thing of course, but then again, she felt sorry for him. He'd be fired for slacking, that was, after he woke up. She clicked her heels together, waiting patiently for the clocks to strike twelve, the one minute the security cameras went blind.
Quickly trying to think of a way to get his attention, she tried the sitting with her legs crossed and eyelids half-closed position. It always caught a man's attention. But the security guard continued pacing, with that humongous gun in his arms. It was slightly annoying that he was ignoring her, but then again, she supposed she'd gotten used to the easy ones. This one would take some persuasion.
Not that she couldn't do that.
Standing up from the lumpy bed, she advanced towards the metal bars, hips swaying side to side. That seemed to catch his attention. But not in the intended way.
"What are you doing out of bed?" He shouted, pointing his gun threateningly at her. In all honesty, he seemed more scared than aggressive. Oh well, he must have heard what happened to the other guards.
"Oh, just stretching my legs. I've been getting cramps from sitting all day." She said quite simply. Maybe acting innocent would catch him off guard.
"Don't you act like you're all innocent. I've heard them stories of them other guards!" Shoving his massive gun closer to her.
So he'd practically read her mind. Security was finally putting up a fight. She could do with one, to be honest. A little challenge to exercise her brain, and prepare her. For the Doctor. "What me? I've been here for a month! Only had one other guard and he had to go off on sick leave!"
"So... you're not... River Song... then." He said, cautiously retracting his gun. Gosh... the thing must weigh a kilo. It was funny, to see they thought that their toys could stop her, made her laugh to herself sometimes.
"God's sake no... I'm- I'm..." She quickly racked her brains for a name, "Amelia Pond." Great idea River. Use your mum's name. She mentally scolded herself, all the while trying to keep a totally-not-River-Song face.
"Oh right, I'm-um sorry... I'm new here." River smiled. Now she'd got the man wrapped around her little pinky. But his naivety concerned her. It seemed... suspicious. But then again, every guard had a weak spot. Now just to make some small talk, and eventually get him to trust her.
But the guard was having none of that.
"But you're all still the same. You murdered someone." He said firmly, regaining his grip on his gun. River was half tempted to punch him there and then, but she still had some time to bide. She had to be patient.
"It was my evil stepmother. She wanted to kill me. I was just trying to defend myself." She pleaded-ish, going for the classic 'disturbing fairytale' excuse.
"And you ended up killing her!" The guard retorted. He seemed to have a very strong sense of duty. Which was... great. Luckily for River she just had one minute of keeping the guard from blabbing to some higher security left. All she had to do was to get closer.
Pressing her nose against his in defiance she shouted back, "She was the evil one!"
Before the guard could have said anything in reply, she had grabbed his collar and pressed her lips against his. The effect was instantaneous. He fell to the floor, unconscious, and would probably be so for a few more hours. The lipstick had done its work. It was ironically one of her best weapons. But she didn't enjoy using it.
Brushing her thoughts aside, she ran to the back of her cell, using her lipstick to scrawl the words 'SEE YOU' on the soiled wall. She then ran back to the security guard and fished out some keys, deftly unlocking the door between her and the Doctor.
The Doctor. Oh she couldn't wait...
She had one minute to skedaddle. One minute before the building went into lockdown. And she used it to jump out of the window next to her cell.
Little did she know that this would be the last time she would be enclosed within the building's walls.
A/N And this is where the theme song would usually play... but I'm not bothered to describe it. Sorry for such a short chapter. Don't worry, the story will become less crap in the next chapter. Pleasssse review. It would make my day. Also, if you want, you can check my other Doctor who fanfic out. But for now, bye! :)
Next: The Tenth and Rose get a surprise visitor!
