Right so this is PART 1 of the Sequal to; When Friends Return. I would advise reading that before reading this, but it doesn't matter all that much it'll still make sense.

Jack's back.

"Rose for goodness sake…" the Doctor called after her as she ran away from him giggling, she was not being much help, the TARDIS was being stubborn and hadn't moved for 3 days. Rose and Jack were using the time to get re-acquainted the Doctor though did not take kindly to their; 'Practical Jokes' they were childish and uncalled for, according to the 900 year old Time Lord, not that his 10th incarnation wasn't childish mind you, he just didn't take too kindly to being on the receiving end of the childish tricks.

The Doctor was thankful that as yet the trio hadn't been bothered by any monsters, of any kind, that was partly thanks to being stuck in 2006. Jackie Tyler had quickly taken a liking to Jack and the Doctor had rolled his eyes almost theatrically when Jack announced; "I don't see what's so wrong with her…" The Doctor was quick to remind him that he 1) Hadn't been on the receiving on one of Jackie's slaps and 2) hadn't taken Jackie's daughter away from her for years on end. Jack had smiled at him and nodded with his reply; "No 'cause that's your job!" he had chuckled.

The Doctor resumed his place under the TARDIS' console where he got tinkering away; trying to fix whatever it was that was wrong.

"What ya doing?" called an inquisitive Rose, the Doctor though did not know she was there and jumped slightly and hit his head cursing profusely in Gallifreyan, the TARDIS chose not to translate this. He slid from under the TARDIS' main console and looked up at her; she had probably just caused him to have the biggest head ache in the history of all head aches, he wondered if anyone had recored the most painful head aches ever. It was then that Jack arrived grinning from ear to ear at the Doctor, who was still rubbing his head.

"What are you so happy about?" he asked.

"Nothing, I'm just so glad to be back!" he said still grinning.

Rose looked around the control room; "Is the TARDIS still refusing to budge?" she asked stroking the main control pannel, the earned her an odd look from both Jack and the Doctor.

"Yes Rose, that's why we're still in 2006!" he said standing up and moving to the control pannel; "The thing is I can't find anything wrong with her, it's really frustrating!" Jack and Rose exchanged looks.

"Maybe…something bad's gonna happen here?" Rose suggested, but as she did the TARDIS' engin powered up and the Doctor turned around grinning; "Or not…" Rose said laughing.

So they were off, spiralling through time and space, off for another adventure, the three friends shooting off without a second thought as to what would be waiting for them where ever it would be that they landed. The TARDIS landed on a distant planet; "So where are we?" Rose asked as she stepped from the TARDIS.

"Umm…" The Doctor looked around, the ground appeared to be purple and the sky a dirty green colour, he smiled; "I don't know!" he said simply.

"You don't know?" Rose asked slightly worried.

"Yup, not a clue, never been here before!" he said crouching and picking up some of the purple dust that covered the ground, he licked it and spat it out; "Yuck, wouldn't advise doing that again…" he pulled a tissue from one of his pockets and wiped his tongue. Rose laughed and Jack gave him an odd look.

"Dose he do that often?" Jack asked still not used to the new Doctor's habits.

"All the time, really odd, but you'll get used to it!" she said smiling.

"Hmm, this could be a number of planets…Ovarious, Blondonulous, Spectorat…I know of quite a few that have green sky and purple land…Rose, you think we should explore?" he asked turning to look at her, she smiled and took his hand.

"Of course!" Rose said grinning as she held her left hand out for Jack, he took it smiling.

"Oooooh what's that?" Rose said pointing at something moving in the distance, the Doctor moved forwards slightly letting go of her hand, where they had landed look like a desert, with purple sands, there was nothing to be seen for miles.

"I don't know…what ever it is it's coming this way!" he said slightly amused.

"Maybe it's the locals?" Jack suggested as he looked around him, there didn't seem to be anything else moving for miles and miles around them, so it would be a safe bet that it was indeed the locals that were advancing on their position.

"They ummm, don't look too friendly!" Rose commented.

Jack nodded along as he agreed; "She's right Doc, they don't seem all that happy to see us!" Jack said taking a step back.

"Oh come on, for all you know enraged might be their normal facial expression!" he said and watched as Rose shook her head, this was not a time for jokes. "Right…back to the TARDIS then?" he suggested and Rose nodded he took her hand again and they ran. Jack ahead of them sprinting, but for some reason the TARDIS wasn't getting any nearer, they stopped; "How very odd…" The Doctor said looking at their surroundings they hadn't moved, not a step. Rose looked over her shoulder, the natives were gaining on them now, they were in sight and could be seen more clearly, their skin was blue and they had what looked like yellow splodges over their arms and legs.

"DOCTOR!" Rose screamed as she began to panic. The Doctor raised an eyebrow, he couldn't work out why they hadn't moved, he needed to if they were ever going to escape with their lives.

To be continued…
