Apparently, no one's ever done a Doctor Who/Transformers crossover. Well, here's one for you. This takes place in between "Journey's End" and "The Next Doctor" for Doctor Who and before the first Transformers movie and the start of the Great War for the live-action Transformers movie series. Enjoy!
P.S. As I've written more of this story, I've also gone back and made some revisions to past chapters. I'm in the process now of reposting the newer versions. This chapter has been updated.
The Doctor took one final look at Donna through the window. She was on her phone, talking to one of her old friends from before she'd met him. She didn't even see him standing in the doorway of the TARDIS; she was too content on whatever it was that Narys did last night. The Doctor closed the door, walked to the seat at the control panel, and wept silently, a single tear falling down his cheek. Donna had turned into such a better person than she was before. But that person was gone now; she would never remember anything. Donna was gone, lost, and it was his fault. He could never see her again.
After what seemed like days, he finally managed to regain his composure, and reach to the control panel. He needed to go someplace far from Earth, where nothing could remind him of Donna or any of the other human companions he had lost. He punched in coordinates for a system on the far edge of the galaxy, millennia ago, leaving the specifics mainly up to the TARDIS. "Allons-y," the Doctor smiled weakly, pushing the ignition button. He was off.
CLUNK!
The TARDIS complained, jerking about as she always did. "All right, all right!" the Doctor retorted, frantically reaching across the access panel for the stabilizer controls. After a few cranks of the knob, she leveled off to a slow rumble and her whooshing resumed its regular pattern. "Don't make me break out the sledgehammer again, old girl," he warned. As if in response, the TARDIS came to a complete stop; obviously she had reached her destination. The Doctor looked at the monitor to be certain he wasn't going to be stepping off a cliff (which had happened before). No, no cliffs here, just a big, metal field. "A metal field? No," he doubted, "that can't be right." He tapped the screen to be certain it was working properly. "Nope, it's definitely a cobalt-iron alloy. Well, this should be an adventure for both of us, Don-"
Oh. He forgot.
The Doctor tried to shake away the loss and take up his usual sense of adventure. It wasn't working quite well, though. He scanned for life-forms: nothing for miles. After a moment, he took a deep breath, and stepped outside. "One small step for Doctor, one-"
PSHOO!
"Whoa!" he screamed, as a laser beam just barely missed him and the ground a few feet away, where it hit, burst into flames. But then, out of the blaze stepped the biggest robot the Doctor had ever seen.
"What?"
And the classic "What?" followed by the beloved Doctor Who theme:
Neeeeeoooooo dundadun dundadun dundadun dundadun dundadun dundadun dundadun…
Ooeeooo… Weeoo-oooooh… Doo-dee-doo-doodoo
