Amy and Harry were sat in the lounge area of the console room the Doctor and Master had popped out saying they had something to do after the fiasco in Amy bedroom she was mortified about it, so they were sat quietly getting to know each other better, they often did this at night time talked to each other learning about them all. By asking each other questions.
"So do you have someone in your life?" asked Amy.
"No….I know I look around fifteen but I'm actually around seventy in physical life as I said, I am immortal there are no others out there unless there is a miracle and another Timelord, or tot are found which would be more improbable than raising from the dead after three days. Dad and Pere are over a thousand years old each, they have each other but there is really no point until I become an adult to think about it, I can't date older people and it would feel wrong to date someone looking the same age as me especial as I've said I'm actually seventy, plus until I become an adult my mind will swap at times between my actual age and the age I look, Pere was always trying to get me to pout when I was younger because he found it funny at thirty I was pouting like the ten year old I looked. Once I'm an adult and my age has stopped, I will think about it then more likely, but I have both dad and Pere and our companions for company."
"You're really seventy?" was the next question Amy asked and she sounded shocked
"Give or take a few physical years, I would have to get SATURN to work it out for me or ask my father, we don't really celebrate anything other than Christmas and that's more from my original upbringing rather than actual faith...So why did you really want to run away on the night before your wedding?"
"It just all piled up on me, Rory's been great, and he is, but I just needed a bit longer." Was her reply
"So that was why you agreed to come with us? Have you at least enjoyed yourself so far?"
"Yes definitely, what made you ask me though?" was her reply
"Pere was serious, he gets lonely even with the Master and me around him all the time, it's not as fun for him, we can see the timeline and all its different outcomes, and we can try to navigate the outcome we want but we don't control time we can only nudge it here and there as you've seen. The relaxation in between all the adventuring is great but dad and Pere prefer to be outside exploring and with a companion they can explain it all to them, it gives excitement, and friendship. I bet you wouldn't change a thing since meeting us well apart from earlier, at the end of the day you were the girl that waited, you waited fourteen years to travel with us that can be a long time to a human, yet you still believed throughout all of that time, as soon as you saw inside you were hooked weren't you?" replied then asked Harry.
"Once I'd stepped inside and realised everything you all had told me was true and you had a time machine and a spaceship, then I knew I was going to come it was real and I wanted to travel with you just for the break from it all…..So doesn't it get boring if you can see the timeline?"
"No actually because as I said, with a companion or even on our own, the timeline can change and be altered, just by us being there and investigating, each move we make alters the timeline a little, its usually how we know what each other is going to say because we can see it in the timeline but looking into your timeline and those around us we usually know how to navigate the timeline for a better outcome than it would be. The only thing we ensure stays always the same are the fixed points in time only a deity can alter them even I can't and I have the same power as my father."
"Your father? Who do you mean the Doctor or the Master?" asked Amy confused
"I was born with two fathers well actually I was adopted by a multiverse entity as HIS son rather than just as an agent for him which I was originally meant to be. I was blood adopted with magic's assistance by James Potter to pull on the full Peverell legacy as I was meant to do but that changed when James and my mother were murdered, I inherited one of the three items you need to work as the agent of death within a universe. Through that link I kept calling out to DEATH and one night he answered and that sealed our fate we became a part of each other we are connected much more closely than we should be hence why I call him father it's why I'm called The Son as my timelord name. If anyone ever asks the son of who they normally have an accident when I tell them straight away its shocking to just announce the Son of DEATH."
"So, you mean both the Master and Death are your parents?"
"Yes as well as Lilly Potter nee Evans, I have two dads and one mother, hence not looking for anyone I will live on father will never take me no one will last that long only someone like a Timelord or an immortal higher race but ours is the last on this plane in the universe, well we three are the last as you know…. So are you at least excited for tomorrow?"
"Actually, I'm more nervous I think!" replied Amy while looking at him with a bit of shock, it wasn't every day you met the son of a deity.
"We could still travel for a bit more, as long as I pilot us, I can get you back in time for rest before your wedding, we just need to wait for Dad and Pere which should be about thirty more minutes.

Rory was in the pub with all his friends on his stag do, he had phoned Amy and while speaking into the phone told her how much he loved her and hadn't been able to tell her for seven hours, just as he was hanging up a massive cake was wheeled into the room.
"Out! Out! Out!" shouted all his friends
The Doctor popped his head through the top of the cake. The chanting stopped but the music continued. Rory shook his head in disbelief and the Doctor looked about bemused.
"RORY! That's a relief. I thought I'd burst out of the wrong cake. Again. That reminds me, there's a girl outside in a bikini. Could someone let her in, give her a jumper? Lucy. Lovely girl. Now, then. Rory. We need to talk about your fiancée. She wants to run away from the wedding with me! Not only that she kissed me, in front of my husband and son, then wanted us to lie on the bed with her." spoke the Doctor standing to his full height so Rory could see him everyone gasped at what he said.
"Tell you what, though. You're a lucky man - She's a great kisser on the bed." He carried on as though not noticing everyone's reactions someone dropped his glass and they all stared at the Doctor.
"Funny how you can say something in your head and it SOUNDS fine... anyway no time to dor-del we need you to come with us we need to make sure Amy's at the church tomorrow."
With that he jumped out of the cake and both him and the Master who was actually stood behind Rory grabbed him by an arm each and waving to everyone in there led him out. It took five minutes to get to the TARDIS. Once they were in Amy was up and asking what was going on the other two timelords just guided Rory up to the sitting area where Harry and Amy were sat as they came in.
"Oh! The life out there, it dazzles. I mean, it blinds you to the things that are important. I've seen it devour relationships and plans...because for one person to have seen all that, to taste the glory and then go back, it WILL tear you apart. So….. I'm sending you somewhere. Together."
"Whoa! What, like a date?"
"Anywhere you want, any time you want. One condition - it has to be amazing. The Moulin Rouge in 1890! The first Olympic Games! Think of it as a wedding present, because, frankly, it's either this or tokens. It's a lot to take in, isn't it? Tiny box, huge room inside. What's that about? Let me explain."
"It's another dimension." Spoke Rory looking around
"It's basically another dimen... What?"
"After Prisoner Zero, I've been reading up on all the latest scientific theories; FTL travel, parallel universes." Explained Rory
"I like the bit when someone says, "It's bigger on the inside!" I always look forward to that." Spoke the Doctor rather down the Master just patted him on the shoulder
"So, this date. I'm kind of done with running down corridors. What do you think, Rory?"
"How about somewhere... Romantic?" asked Harry looking at them all and then running to the console and set the navigation up before entering the time vortex for a few seconds before they faded back into a street. When they all left, they found they were in the middle of a market place the Doctor span around slowly.
"Venice! Venezia! La Serenissima! Impossible city. Preposterous city! Founded by refugees running from Attila the Hun. It was just a collection of little wooden huts in the marsh, but became one of the most powerful cities in the world. Constantly being invaded, constantly flooding... constantly... Just beautiful! Oh, you gotta love Venice. And so many people did. Byron, Napoleon, Casanova. Oooh, that reminds me. 1580. That's all right. Casanova doesn't get born for 145 years. Don't want to run into him. I owe him a chicken." Spoke the Doctor in his hyperactive voice and Amy could see what Harry meant he seemed to light up explaining thing to his companions.
"You owe Casanova a chicken?" asked Rory looking at the Doctor funny
"Long story. We had a bet." Answered the Doctor. An official dressed in black stepped out in front of them all.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Papers, if you please. Proof of residency, current bill of medical inspection."
"There you go, fella." The Doctor and Master held up their own sets of Psychic papers.
"All to your satisfaction, I think you'll find." Spoke the Master with his usual you idiot voice
"I am so sorry, Your Holiness. I didn't realise." Spoke the official while bowing and passing the papers back to the two
"No worries. You were just doing your job. Sorry, what exactly is your job?" asked the Doctor taking his paper back and passing the Master's over to him
"Checking for aliens, visitors from foreign lands what might bring the plague with them."
"Oh, that's nice See where you bring me? The plague!" snapped Amy hitting the Doctor on the arm.
"Don't worry, Viscountess. No, we're under quarantine here, no-one comes in, no-one goes out, and all because of the grace and wisdom of our patron, Signora Rosanna Calvierri." The official pointed to a crest on the box he was carrying
"How interesting. I heard the plague died out years ago."
"Not out there. No, Signora Calvierri has seen it with her own eyes. Streets are piled high with bodies, she said."
"Did she, now?" asked the Master while Rory reached for the paper off the Doctor as the official went off to question someone else. The three timelords, Rory and Amy continued on.
"According to this, I am your eunuch!" was Rory's response as he caught back up with them
"Oh, yeah, I'll explain later" answered Amy
The young women were in two lines, all wearing white gowns of varying designs. An older woman, most likely a teacher, walked to the head of the procession.
"Veils down, girls." Spoke the woman and the girls lower their veils. It must be a daily ritual because people in the street stopped what they were doing to watch. The Timelords, Amy and Rory got a spot across the canal and watched. A man ran up to the procession.
"What do you want?" asked the woman
"Where's my Isabella?" demanded the man lifting different vails to try and find the girl
"What are you doing? Get away from there."
"Isabella! Isabella!" the man continued shouting and looking under the vails he eventually found her but she backed away.
"It's me!" spoke the man One of the other girls came forward and hissed at him, her mouth showed two rows of fangs. The man fell to the ground.
"Girls, come along!" spoke the woman the girls continued their procession. A booted foot landed on the man's chest, keeping him down.
"She's gone." Spoke one of the Girls and left with a swirl of her cloak
"Isabella! It's me!" shouted the man two guards lifted him from the ground
"What was that about?" asked Amy but the three Timelords stood up and started to walk away
"I hate it when they do that!" spoke Amy dragging Rory to catch up with them.
The man who was looking for his daughter walked along a passageway. The Doctor and Master crossed behind him and leapt onto the bottom step of a stairway.
"Who were those girls?" asked the Doctor
"I thought everyone knew about the Calvierri school." Spoke the man to the two
"My first day here. Parents do all sorts of things to get their children into good schools. They move house, they change religion…..So, why are you trying to get her out?" the Doctor asked the question quietly while him and the Master stepped off the step so they were more level with him
"Something happens in there. Something magical, something evil. My own daughter didn't recognise me. And the girl who pushed me away, her face... like an animal."
"I think it's time we met this, Signora Calvierri." Spoke the Master while pointing for the man to show them the way
The Signora was kneeling in the centre of a courtyard, drinking from a chalice poured by her servant. She heard a door close in the distance.
"Mother?" asked a male young man
"Mummy's hydrating, Francesco." Spoke up Signora as she had her chalice refilled by a servant
"And we never interrupt Mummy when she's hydrating. We were accosted again." Spoke the boy while coming down the stairs and moving over to his mother. Signora leaned back against the well and the male lied down, head on her lap
"A man made a grab for one of the girls. The longer we wait, the greater the risk of discovery. I mean, we've already converted more than enough. Surely it is time to introduce them to my brothers?"
"I shall decide when we have enough." spoke Signora as she stroked his head
"If it's more you want, let me take the girls into the city tonight. We could…"
"We follow the plan. Let them hammer on our door... beg to be taken." A bell tolled and the boy stood abruptly. The Servant helped the Signora stand. With a look at Francesco the Signora and the servant left.
Amy posed in front of a doorway and Rory knelt to take her photo with his phone. There was a piercing scream. Amy ran towards the sound. Rory ran after Amy and they arrived in the passage to see Fransesco over the girl. He lifted his head and you could see blood on the girl's neck. When they saw Francesco's face his mouth was open, showing fangs. He walked past them with a hiss, holding his cape in front of his face. Rory went to the girl.
"She'll be OK. Where are you... Amy! Come back!" Amy had ran off after Fransesco. Her chase came to an abrupt end at one of the canals. Fransesco was under the water watching Amy and Rory.
Back with the Timelords they had managed to get the man they had talked to, to distract the guards at the doors so the three could slip in unnoticed, after going down a spiral staircase the Doctor came upon a mirror.
"Hello, handsome." Spoke the Doctor as he straightened his tie and checked his teeth a group of girls dressed in white were standing behind the three unnoticed
"Who are you?" demanded a girl the three whipped around looking at the girls. The Doctor turned to face them then quickly looked back into the mirror. They were not visible. He kept looking back and forth.
"How are you doing that? I... am... loving it. You're like Houdini, only five scary girls, only he was shorter. WILL BE shorter. I'm rambling." spoke the Doctor only to get two eye rolls off Harry and the Master
"I'll ask you again, Signor's. Who are you?"
"Why don't you check THIS out?" spoke the Doctor and held out a wallet that shows an ID with a photo of his first incarnation
"Library card." Spoke the Doctor and put it away
"Of course, it's with... He's... I need the spare. Pale, creepy girls who don't like sunlight and can't be seen in... Am I thinking what I think I'm thinking? But the city. Why shut down the city? Unless..." Spoke the Doctor while keeping an eye on the girls and looked at the Master
"Leave now, Signor's, or we shall call for the steward... if you are lucky."
"Ooh!" spoke the Master as though he was afraid The girls hissed and bared their fangs, as they advanced on the three they ran for a doorway
"Tell me the whole plan. that one may not work. Listen, I would love to stay here. This whole thing... I'm thrilled. Oh, this is Christmas!" and with that the Doctor slammed the door shut with the three of them on the other side. They ran up the stairs and out of the building running towards the canal, as they were, they bumped into Rory and Amy running towards them.
"Doctor!" Amy shouted spotting him
"We just met some vampires!" said the Master in a dead pan voice.
"We just saw a vampire!" both the Doctor and Amy talked at once, their voices overlapping.
"And creepy girls and everything." Spoke up Harry
"Vampires!" spoke Amy in amazement all four jumped up and down excitedly as Rory joined them from running to catch up
"We think we just saw a vampire." Spoke Rory without even a greeting when he caught up to the four
"Yeah, yeah, I know. Amy was just telling me."
"Yeah! The three actually went to their house." Spoke up Amy
"Oh. Right. Well..." spoke Rory feeling a little lost.
"OK, so... first, we need to get back in there somehow." Spoke up Harry looking at the Master and Doctor
"What?!" demanded Amy
"How do we do that?" asked Harry
"Back in where?!" demanded Rory now
"Come and meet our new friend." Spoke the Master with a smirk
The man had brought out a map of Venice. The timelords and Amy were at the table looking it over with them as Rory sat back among some barrels.
"As you saw, there's no clear way in. The House of Calvierri is like a fortress. But there's a tunnel underneath it, with a ladder and shaft that leads up into the house. I tried to get in once myself, but I hit a trapdoor." Spoke up the man
"You need someone on the inside." Spoke up Amy.
"No." both the Doctor and Master said together seeing where she was going with this in the timeline
"You don't even know what I was going to say!"
"We pretend you're an applicant for the school to get you inside and tonight you come down and open the trapdoor to let us in." spoke up the Doctor
"Oh. So you know what I was going to say!" spoke up Amy
"Are you insane?" demanded Rory
"We don't have another option." Spoke up Amy
"He said no, Amy. Listen to him." Spoke up Rory
"There is another option. I work at the Arsenale. We build the warships for the navy." Spoke up the man indicating the barrels Rory was sitting on
"Gun powder" spoke the Doctor after sniffing in the barrels direction
"Most people just nick stationery from where they work." Spoke up the Master. Rory slid slowly off the barrel and backed away into a dead rabbit hanging by the fireplace.
"Look, I have a thing about gun powder and huge quantities of explosives." Spoke up the Doctor
"What do you suggest, then? We wait until they turn her into an animal?" demanded the man who then turned away and poked the fire
"I'll be there three, four hours tops." Spoke Amy trying to convince them again.
"No, no, no, no, no, no. It can't keep happening like this. This is how they go." Spoke up the Doctor he sat on the bed, head in hands. He then took a breath and sat back.
"But I have to know. We go together. Say you're my daughter" spoke Harry no thinking about it much
"What?! Don't listen to him!" demanded Rory
"Your daughter? You look about thirteen." Was Amy's response
"Brother, then. But I can change my looks and age to be older if I need to." Spoke Harry
"Too weird. Fiancé." Spoke Amy
"I'm not having him run around telling people he's your fiancé." Spoke up both Rory and the Master each the same time.
"No. No, you're right. I mean, they've already seen the Doctor, Master and Harry. You should do it."
"Me?" asked Rory
"Yeah! You can be my brother" explained her plan to Rory. She rubbed his head playfully. Over on the bed, the Doctor smiled at their interaction.
"Why is him being your brother weird, but with me, it's OK?" asked Rory to Amy.
"This whole thing is mental! They're vampires for God's sake." Spoke up Rory again
"We hope." Spoke up the Master
"So if they're not vampires...?" spoke Amy
"Makes you wonder what could be so bad it doesn't actually mind us thinking it's a vampire?" spoke up Harry voicing what the other two Timelords were thinking
It took Amy some acting and a reference off the king of Norway but that's psychic paper for you. Luckily, she was accepted, but Rory was basically thrown out after they told him they would accept his sister.
.
.
.

The other three managed to get the man to use an under passage that his gondola would go down to get the five of them back into the school, they had met Rory just as they were to enter the passage.
"So why did my wife to be kiss you and why did it make you to get me?"
"You want to do this now?" Aske the Doctor
"I'm getting married tomorrow after 450 years I deserve to know!" was the comeback
"Rory she's just scared, getting together for the rest of your life is a big commitment, it took the Master and the Doctor a long time to work out their differences but no matter how much they go at each other they do deeply love each other. Amy was missing you mostly though she needed to see you so we thought one final date for your engagement, and she will be raring to go tomorrow." Spoke Harry quietly to him
"But the kiss?" asked Rory
"The Doctors terrible at reading situations but the Master isn't, she just needed comfort and he was next to her, it freaked him out a bit, he is a married man after all, well as good as." Explained Harry again
"Are you sure that is all?" asked Rory
"Rory we can not only see time but were telepaths we don't read minds it's an invasion of privacy without permission first but people in high stressful situations broadcast their thoughts at times and her main thoughts were of you!" Spoke Harry gently but with conviction.
As they were making their way up the ladder Amy had a candle lamp and was removing the lock on the grate they needed opening, only to turn around and find herself in front of other girls and the older woman who had been with them when they first saw them. She was dragged to the basement of the school where she met Signora and her son. She was strapped to a chair and the Signora approached her.
"Get away from me NOW!" demanded Amy.
"Did you really think psychic paper would fool me?" demanded Signora
Suddenly a soft green light started to fill the room with a hum and Amy looked around nervously.
Out in the courtyard the three timelords and Rory had emerged from the well in to the pitch black.
"I Can't see anything, it's too dark." Spoke Harry quietly
"Good job I brought this!" spoke Rory taking out a pen light and turning it on. The Doctor looked at him and pulled out a big flashlight
"Ultraviolet, portable sunlight!" spoke the Doctor
"Yours is bigger than mine." Rory spoke while looking at it.
"Yeah no one is going there Rory I'm still classed as a child thank-you!" spoke Harry with humour.
Back in the school Amy was strapped to the chair and Signora was arguing with her son as to whether they should just convert her.
"I need to know what this girl is doing in a world of savages with psychic paper. Who are you with? I scarcely believe your idiot brother sent you. Did you also fall through the crack?"
"Okay I'll tell you…..I'm from OFSTED." Spoke Amy with a cool voice the Signora did not like that and after some remarks about how she would be sorry she saw the real teeth of the woman who grabbed her head and tilted it biting into her neck and drinking her blood, the trauma of losing so much blood only got worse when she let her son feed off Amy as well.
Out in the courtyard the other four found a hidden stash of bones and dried up skin the Doctor explained that not only had they been drained of their blood but also of all their water the Doctor thought some obviously didn't survive the turning process.
"You know what's dangerous about you? It's not that you make people take risks. It's that you make them want to impress you. You make it so they don't want to let you down. You have no idea how dangerous you make people to themselves when you're around." Spoke Rory to the timelords looking at all three of them having a go at them for once instead of questions.
"Who are you?" all the timelords turned around quickly and then Harry turned back and pulled Rory to him and around so he could see they were trying to close in around them.
"Run?" asked Harry
"Yes and quickly." Spoke the Master and grabbing Harry's hand from behind they were off running away from the girls into a passage.
Back with Amy the Signora was explaining things to her
"This is how it works. First, we drink you until you're dry. Then... we fill you with our blood. It rages through you like a fire, changing you, until one morning you awake and your humanity is a dream... now faded. Or you die. That can happen." She laughed at the end
"And if I survive?" demanded Amy
"Then there are 10,000 husbands waiting for you in the water."
"Yeah, sorry. I'm kind of engaged." She said while kicking out at both the woman and her son, there was a flicker on Signora and she turned into looking more like a fish person than a human they both left when they heard a commotion upstairs. As she is waiting suddenly a girl steps out it was the girl from the father, she saw in the court yard. She untied her and told her to follow her quietly.
The three timelords and Rory were trapped between the girls and Signora and her son.
"Cab for Amy Pond?" asked the Doctor
"This rescue plan, not exactly watertight, is it?" spoke up Signora
"Ha-ha!" spoke the Doctor as he turned on his light to hold the girls off. Amy, followed by Isabella, ran into the corridor from an intersecting hall.
"Rory!" shouted Amy
"Amy!" shouted Rory grabbing hold of her tight
"Quickly, through here!" spoke Isabella who ran back through the way they had come followed by the other five with the Doctor at the back and Rory at the front. Both with lights if needed.
"Seal the house." Demanded Signora
"They're not vampires!"
"What?!" asked the Master using his screwdriver to get through a door he was the closest up at the front behind Amy and Rory
"I saw them, I saw her. They're not vampires. They're aliens!"
"Classic!" the Doctor chuckled before speaking
"That's GOOD news?! What is wrong with you people?!" demanded Rory.
They carried on running having to bypass groups who had been sent after them lucky they seemed scared of the Doctors light. Eventually Isabella led them to where her father was wating in the canal. Suddenly Isabella stopped.
"I can't" she spoke as her father shouted for her to keep going she was shading her eyes from the sunlight peering through the tunnel now the sun was coming up.
"OH…." The Doctor tried to think of something only for the girl to be dragged in by the other girls and they slammed the door shut in their faces a wooden door at that so all the Doctor could do was pound on it a few times but they knew they couldn't get her back. The look on the mas face when he realised he would never see his Isabella again was heart breaking.
.
.
.
.
"And so in memory of the children lost to the silence, the traitor is delivered to the arms of those she betrayed." Spoke Signora who nodded at a guard and pushed it into the back of Isabella making it so she could only walk forward on the plank over the water.
"Do you expect me to drown? I'm Venetian! I can swim! We can all swim!" the guard gave her another push and she fell into the water
"Something touched my leg." The water around her bubbled and Signora son watched avidly
" They're all around me! They bite!" she was pulled under
"Now leave us." Spoke up Signora the older woman clapped her hands and everyone else turned to depart. The Signora walked to the edge and kneeled. The water bubbled at her proximity. He son walked towards her
"Mother! Change your form... or my brothers will think they are being fed twice today."
"Not long now. It's not long." She spoke into the water and it bubbled again.
She returned to her throne room to find the Doctor lounging in her throne the Master on one side Harry on the other.
"Long way from Saturnyne, aren't you... Sister of the Water?" spoke the Doctor while looking at here
"No, let me guess. The owners of the psychic paper. Then I take it you're are refugees, like me?"
"I'll make you a deal. An answer for an answer. You're using a perception filter. It doesn't change your features, but manipulates the brainwaves of the person looking at you. But seeing one of you for the first time in, say, a mirror, the brain doesn't know what to fill the gap with, so leaves it blank... hence no reflection."
"Your question?"
"Why can we see your big teeth?"
"Self-preservation over-rides the mirage. The subconscious perceives the threat and tries to alert the conscious brain." Laughed Signora
"Where's Isabella?" spoke Harry
"My turn. Where are you from?"
"Gallifrey." Answered the Doctor honestly
"You should be in a museum. Or in a mausoleum."
"Why are you here?" asked the Doctor it was his turn now
"We ran from the silence. Why are you here?"
"Wedding present. The silence?"
"There were cracks. Some were tiny... some were as big as the sky. Through some we saw worlds and people and through others we saw silence... and the end of all things. We fled to an ocean like ours and the crack snapped shut behind us... and Saturnyne was lost."
"So Earth is to become Saturnyne Mark II?" asked the Master
"And you can help me. We can build a new society here, as others have. What do you say? Three timelords and all of my children
"Where's Isabella?" the Doctor had got up off the throne and waled to her to ask that question quietly
"Isabella?"
"The girl who saved my friend." Spoke the Doctor
"Oh, deserters must be executed. Any general will tell you that. I need an answer, timelords. A partnership. Any which way you choose. We can rule this place.
"Think of the scandal, I'm a married man with a son and well, even if he would share, you're a being with a fish head." Spoke the Doctor
"GIRLS! (all the older girls approached her) You're right. We're nothing alike. YOU just philosophise.
"This ends today. I'll tear down the House of Calvierri, stone by stone." Spoke the Doctor while he and the other two were being pushed back out of the room
"Take your hands off us….(they did) And you know why? You didn't know Isabella's name. (door opened behind them) You didn't know Isabella's name." the Doctor told her and the door slammed in his face behind the three of them. The oncoming storm withing the Doctor started to burn.
They were all back at the mans house luckily Amy had asked him his name as she was comforting him Guido was desolate knowing he would never see his daughter again. Amy was being examined by the Doctor
"You're fine. Open wide….." he shoved a candy into her mouth and turned around
"I need to think. Come on brain, think, think. Think! Think!"
"If they're fish people, it explains why they hate the sun." spoke up Amy around her candy
"Stop talking, brain thinking. Hush." Spoke the Doctor putting a hand over her mouth
"It's the school thing I don't understand." Spoke up Rory next
"Stop talking, brain thinking. Hush" spoke the Doctor while placing his other hand over Rory's mouth.
"I say we take the fight to them." Spoke up Guido
"Ah-ah-ah!" spoke the Doctor
"What?" asked Guido
"Ah!" spoke the Doctor and nodded at Rory who placed his own hand over the mans mouth
"Her planet dies, so they flee through a crack in space and time, and end up here, then she closes off the city and, one by one, changes people into creatures like her to start a new gene pool. Got it. Then what? They come from the sea, they can't survive forever on land, so what's she going to do? Unless she's going to do something to the environment to make the city habitable... She was going to say 'I shall bend the heavens to save my race'…." The other timelords nodded with him she was going to say that in one of the timelines but she never got the chance in this one.
"Bend the heavens... Bend... the heavens... She's going to sink Venice." Spoke the Master while looking at the Doctor
"She's... she's going to sink Venice?" asked Guido
"And repopulate it with the girls she's transformed." Agreed the Doctor
"You can't repopulate somewhere with just women. You need... blokes." Spoke up Harry
"She's got blokes." Spoke up Amy
"Where?" asked Harry worried
"In the canal. She said to me, "There are 10,000 husbands waiting in the water."
"Only the male offspring survived the journey here. She's got 10,000 children swimming in the canals, waiting for Mum to make them some compatible girlfriends. Ew. I mean, I've been around a bit, but, really, that's... that's... Ew." Spoke the Doctor looking at the Master but he just rolled his eyes Theta had always been embarrassed about discussing sex.
Suddenly they heard noises from upstairs the Doctor asked Guido about it but already knew who it was he had told them it was empty only for the converted girls to descend on them Rory points out that they are already on the second floor which just causes the three timelord to shake their head they knew what was coming and the windows blew in and girls entered from there the Doctor used his light on them to get the six of them out of the house only for Guido to lock them all out behind him the Doctor pounded on the door knowing what the man was going to do, he made his decision at the last minute and so the timeline changed from him following to him deciding if he couldn't get his daughter back he would join her and take these converted with him. The house blew up throwing the Doctor back, lucky for him the Master was there to stop him falling.
Back at the school Signora sets into motion her final plan to make the sky burn and Vienna sink, the bell tower on the school starts to pump out smoke all the people who can see it and what it is doing collecting in the sky. People were running around Venice ought it was Armageddon or something. All five of them see it and the people clamouring about because of it.
"Amy, take Rory and go back to the TARDIS now." Spoke the Doctor
"What? We need to stop this!" spoke Amy
"No, you need to go back to the TARDIS remember you do as I say." Spoke the Doctor Amy huffed and took off, Rory looked at the three timelords and then went after her.
The three timelords made for the throne room and the throne pulling it apart with the sonics trying to get the bell to stop.
"You're too late. Such determination... just to save one city. Hard to believe it's the same man that let an entire race turn to cinders and ash. Now you can watch as my people take their new kingdom." Spoke up Signora
"The girls have gone, Rosanna."
"You're lying." Spoke Signora
"Shouldn't I be dead? Hmm? Rosanna, please, help me. There are 200,000 people in this city.
"So, save them, if you can." Spoke Signora as she walked away
The three timelords could see in the timeline why she had left there was nothing they could od from the chair to stop this so they set off for the bell tower.

Amy and Rory were still making their way back to the tower when they were set upon by the Signora's son Rory brandished a broom handle at him only for the fish guy to pull out a sword. One swipe and Rory wasn't feeling confident it had taken most of the handle off the broom the boy then hit a drape to cover Rory only for Rory to jump out of the way and wrap it around the lad. He made a remark about how he stank like rotten fish to which he was told he was hardly going to smell like cheese and biscuits the lad had just got free and knocked Rory down when Amy shouted out to him he looked to her only for her to shine a compact mirror at him and he burst into dust.
"Right, now we go and help the others coz things are getting worse." Spoke Amy after snogging Rory in relief. They entered the throne room to find the others had returned there as well
"Get out! we need to stabilise the storm." Spoke the Doctor while the other two made for the throne
"We're not leaving you." Spoke up Rory.
"Right, so one minute it's, 'You make people a danger to themselves,' the next it's, 'We're not leaving you!' But if one of you gets squashed or blown up or eaten, who gets..." started the Doctor moving further towards them. The ground shook and some of the ceiling fell down around them. They all fell to the ground.
"What was that?" demanded Amy
"Nothing. Bit of an earthquake." Spoke the Doctor totally dismissing it
"An earthquake?" asked as shocked Amy
"Manipulate the elements, it can trigger earthquakes. But don't worry about them."
"No?" asked Rory looking sceptical
"No. Worry about the tidal waves caused by the earthquake. Right, Rosanna's throne is the control hub, but she's locked the program, so tear out every single wire and circuit in the throne. Go crazy. Hit it with a stick, anything. We need it to shut down and re-route control to the secondary hub, which I'm guessing will also be the generator." Spoke the Doctor and the three of them, Harry, Amy and Rory had started to demolish the throne completely ripping it apart if that wasn't bad enough Harry blasted it with a reductor and that really finished it off.
The older two timelords had run off once they knew Harry would take care of that. They had gone to the bell tower, the Doctor tried to stop the bell ringing but with the rain he slipped the Master steadied him then they both reached a hand together and grabbed it the bell stopped, the Master nodded and the Doctor climbed up to the top opening it up he looked how to dismantle the machine the easiest way and found the toggle to turn it off, so he did, just like that the rain stopped and the skies cleared. Harry, Amy and Rory had made their way to the front of the school once the throne was gone and arrived just to see the Doctor slip Harry was about to apparate to him when his dad caught him then the Doctor carried on climbing before looking at something and then he did something and the rain just stopped Harry saw it all through the timeline but Amy and Rory were cheering them on hoping they could do it once they did Amy grabbed Rory and another snogging session was initiated. Harry looked over to his dads instead, giving them some privacy while the Doctor and Master climbed back down, they spoke to each other, and the Master nodded.
"Rosanna!" shouted the Doctor he caught up to her at the waif she was walking out to the river.
"One city to save an entire species. Was that so much to ask?"
"I told you, you can't go back and change time. You mourn but you live. I know, Rosanna, I did it."
"Tell me, Doctor... can your conscience carry the weight of another dead race? Remember us. Dream of us." She told him while looking at him then she fell into the water
"No... No!" he looked down into the water as the bubbling stopped. He stood slowly and looked out at the water, he turned and went to find the other four. They had waited for him at the school gates as he had asked the Master to do. The five of them started to make their way back towards the TARDIS.
"Now, then, what about you two, eh? Next stop Leadworth Register Office? Maybe I can give you away."
"It's fine. Drop me back where you found me. I'll just say you've... " spoke up Rory
"Stay…with us. Please. Just for a bit. I want you to stay." Spoke up Amy turning around to look first at Rory then at the others the three timelords looked into the future and agreed it was okay
"Fine with us" spoke the Doctor nodding
"Yeah? Yes, I would like that."
"Nice one. I will pop the kettle on….Hey, look at this. Got my spaceship, got my boys. My work here is done." Spoke Amy as she used the key, she had been given to get into to the TARDIS, and walked in closing the door behind her
"We are not her boys." Spoke Rory looking at the other three causing Harry ot laugh
"Yeah we kind of are actually, oh well at least you're both great fun and don't scare to easy, it's not always this bad only one or two bad eggs in the travels….We really need to sort out something special though this was supposed to be a date for you two." explained Harry.
