A/N: Sorry it's a few hours late, I got distracted, which seems to be happening a lot recently.
Kari clutched hold of her head and let out a groan. "Stupid bloody time vortex." She grumbled to herself as she tried to shake away the fuzzy feeling she had in her head.
"Hey, are you all right?" A woman asked her, grabbing her attention.
She looked up and saw a blonde haired woman that she recognised standing before her. "Yup, just lost my footing." Kari told her, before looking behind her and at the large metal gate that she was faced with. "It's a bit slippery from the rain."
The woman's eyes widened a little. "Were you planning on going into there?" She said, pointing to the derelict and frankly spooky old house that stood behind the gates.
Kari just smiled at her. "Of course. I have a feeling you're planning the same thing." She said, finally pulling herself off the ground and dusting down her slightly dirty jeans. "I'm Kari."
"Sally, Sally Sparrow." The woman replied, taking a hold of the hand Kari was holding out to her.
"Well then, Sally Sparrow. Shall we go and investigate this spooky old house?" There was a grin on Kari's face. She knew where they were, and what was going to happen. The Doctor wasn't there, but she was sure as hell going to have some fun while on her own.
The pair of them climbed over the fence, and headed along the gravel driveway that led to the house. Kari kept her eyes sharply trained on the statues that she could see hanging around, knowing exactly what they were and what they were after. She was lucky, she didn't have a key, she had never needed a key and probably never would.
"I take it you have a thing for creepy old houses, Sally?" Kari asked, as they pulled some old boards away from a window so that they could climb inside.
"Yeah, I love old things." Sally answered, as she started taking pictures of the chandelier in the room they were looking around.
Kari let out a slight chuckle. "Well, I'm kind of the same." She told her, before they headed into another room.
They both looked around, and spotted a large 'B' sticking out from behind some wallpaper. Sally took the initiative to investigate it further and started to pull it away as Kari read it out loud.
"Beware." Kari said, reading the first word. She didn't really need to see it all, because she knew it by heart, just like she knew the whole conversation that Sally would have with the Doctor. "Beware the weeping angel." She said, as Sally revealed some more of it. "Oh, and duck." Kari's eyes widened suddenly. "No, really duck. Sally Sparrow and Kari. Duck, now." Kari quickly grabbed the woman and pulled her down as something was thrown through the window.
"Phew, that was lucky." Kari muttered, helping the woman up again and looking at the angel statute that was covering its eyes out in the garden while Sally ripped off the rest of the paper. "Love from the Doctor, 1969." Kari read on the wall. "Oh, that man does love to be dramatic."
"Wait, there's more." Sally said, ripping off the last little bit. "Kari, I am not dramatic." Sally read, making Kari burst out laughing.
"Like I said, totally dramatic, Doctor." Kari said, trying to keep herself calm. She didn't have the Doctor there to calm her down, she needed to keep herself in control if she was ever going to help Sally. "Well, looks like we're in this together, Sally. What do we do now?"
"Do you know this Doctor?" Sally asked her, as they walked out of the house. Kari still couldn't help but look at the statues, glaring at them, daring them to do something.
She let out a sigh as they made it back over the gate. "Yeah, I do. He… uh, he's kind of my fiancé." She admitted, fiddling with the ring on her finger a little.
"Okay, so how is he in 1969? That doesn't even make any sense. Did you escape from a mental institution or something?" Sally asked her, a clear look of concern on her face.
"It is extremely complicated and right now I don't have the time to explain." Kari told her. "Look, we need help, and so does he."
"My friend Kathy. She doesn't live too far away. We can go there." Sally told her. She still wasn't too sure about Kari, but the Doctor had been addressing both of them.
A short while later, they were climbing up the stairs and into the hallway of someone's home. "Kathy?" Sally called, hoping that her friend would answer her. Except the television playing in the other room caught her attention, and made Kari smile.
"Don't blink. Don't even blink." Kari mumbled as the Doctor spoke on the screen. "Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck." She said, before the TV seemed to just pause itself. There were screens all around the room showing parts of the conversation that was going to happen, and it made Kari smile to know that they would be okay.
Sally pulled out her phone and led Kari into the kitchen. "Bit freaked. Need to talk. Making you a coffee." She said down the phone to her friend. "No. I'm in the kitchen, got a new friend with me. What's that on all those screens in your front room?" Kari just watched as a frown formed on her face. "No."
Suddenly, both the women in the kitchen were looking at a man who was standing there in front of them, totally naked. Kari was quick to avert her eyes, while Sally carried on looking as he spoke. "Okay. Not sure, but really, really hoping. Pants?"
Sally just shook her head at him. "No."
A moment later, Sally's friend charged into the room, shoving some clothes at the man who was her brother. "Put them on!" She demanded. "Put them on. I hate you. What're you thinking?" She said, as he finally walked away in shame. "Sorry. My useless brother. Sally? What's wrong? What's happened? And who's this?" She said, looking at Kari.
"Hello, I'm Kari. Sally and I both had the same idea of climbing over the gate and sneaking into Wester Drumlin, when something sort of freaky happened." Kari told her. "I'll let her do the explaining."
And so Kari sat there, thinking about the Doctor. She quickly pulled out her psychic paper and decided to send him a message, hoping that it would get to him at the right time if she tried to think about him hard enough. 'Hope you and Martha are having fun. Try not to damage 1969 too much. I'll be seeing you soon x' She smiled to herself as the paper burned a little, before the message disappeared completely.
She wasn't really paying any attention to anything, when suddenly her phone ringing brought her out of her little trance. With a groan she answered the call. "Jack, you do know that it's 2am, right?"
She heard him chuckling on the other end of the line. "And yet you still answered your phone."
"Yes, I did. Now what did you want? If it's about when I'm next going to visit, I'm still not sure, kind of have a thing going on at the moment." She told him, giving Sally and Kathy an apologetic look.
"Yeah, I know. So, I'm giving you a little help. When you get there, go to 32 Bricker Lane." Jack told her.
Now Kari was confused. "What do you mean, when I get there? Get where? What the hell are you talking about, Jack?"
"Just trust me, Princess. Everything has been waiting for you for a long time. I've been waiting for the Doctor long enough, but I never have to wait long to see you again." He told her, just confusing her even more. "Anyway, I have to go. Just remember, 32 Bricker Lane. See you soon, Princess." He said, before ending the call and leaving Kari feeling totally confused.
"Everything okay?" Sally asked, seeing the strange look on the woman's face.
"Uh, yeah. Sorry, my brother can be totally weird at time." Kari said, putting her phone back in her pocket. "I think he must have been drunk or something."
Kathy let out a laugh. "Brothers are the worst, aren't they, Kari?" She asked her, just getting Kari to smile and nod at her.
"Anyway, I say we should go back to the old, creepy house tomorrow. When it's easier to see and I'm less likely to fall on my backside." Kari suggested. Both of the women agreed, and Kathy went back to bed. Sally went and crashed out in Kathy's room with her, while Kari just looked at all the screens with images of the Doctor on them.
"Just had to go and get caught by a weeping angel, didn't you, Doctor?" Kari mumbled to herself as she stared at his face on the screen. "Just couldn't help yourself, could you? Had to go and investigate and get Martha trapped there with you."
Suddenly she felt her pocket burning slightly and pulled out her psychic paper. 'Stop talking to the screens, they already think you're mad. Hope you're not planning on being touched by an angel as well xx.' She couldn't help but smile to herself as she read the message. It had gotten to the right Doctor, at the right time, and he had replied to her as well.
Kari just spent the night sitting in the kitchen, her mind replying things that had happened recently. She was missing the Doctor so much, and she was a little worried about seeing him. She had just come from this version of him regenerating, and she had just come from almost believing that they had never met before that. Everything just seemed to be one big tangled mess inside of her head.
"You been sitting there all night?" A tired and sleepy voice called to her as Kathy entered the kitchen.
Kari nodded at her. "Yeah, I'm not much of a sleeper. I run on adrenalin and excitement, and coffee." She said, holding out a freshly brewed cup for the woman.
Kathy smiled at her. "Thanks. So, why were you at that house as well?" She asked, taking a sip of the coffee.
"The place was just begging for me to explore it. It's creepy and run down, with so many mysteries hidden behind it. I like a little adventure every now and then, and last night was the perfect time." Kari told her, sipping at her own coffee.
"You're as bad as Sally." The dark haired woman told her.
Kari just smirked at her. "Trust me, the things I get up to, I think I'm probably way worse than Sally Sparrow. I seem to have this thing for danger, it tends to follow me around like a little lost puppy. Always something happening around every corner. I never seem to get a moments peace anymore."
"If you don't mind me asking, who exactly are you?" Kathy asked her, after taking another swing of her own coffee.
Kari could see that the woman was still slightly sceptical of her, which she thought was fair enough. "You want the truth, or the cover story?" She asked, trying her hardest not to smirk.
Kathy chuckled a little. "Okay, give me the cover story first. Then I'll have the truth from you."
"I'm Kari Conner, spent most of my life in Cardiff. I have a brother called Jack who can be a real pain in the backside. He still lives in Cardiff and likes to check up on me from time to time. I… uh, have a fiancé, and we like to travel a lot. But work has him busy at the moment, so I'm having a little adventure on my own." She told the woman, thinking she done rather well at bending the truth a little.
The dark haired woman nodded at her. "Yeah, that actually sounds believable. So what's the truth, Kari?"
She smiled, but still tried to contain the smirk that wanted to replace it. "I'm a time traveller. I explore the universe in a little blue box that is bigger on the inside. I'm in love with a man with two hearts, which is okay, because I have two hearts as well." Kathy choked a little on her coffee at that point, going wide eyed at Kari. "Right now, he is trapped in 1969, and he is that man that your brother is so damn obsessed with. He got himself sent back in time without our time machine. Now it's up to us to save him, and yes I did say us, you're a part of this as well now, Kathy."
"I think I liked your cover story better." Kathy told her, just staring at Kari. "You really have two hearts?" Kari nodded at her. "So, you're an alien then?"
"To you, maybe. But to me, you're the alien." Kari pointed out, and not for the first time to someone. "And yes, I know I look human, but Time Lords came first." She added, knowing that that was a popular question as well.
"Nope, I'm going to just believe the cover story, at least that one sounds more believable and sane." Kathy said, making Kari laugh a little.
Kari shrugged her shoulders. "Fair enough, but you'll believe me before the day is out. Time travel is real, and so are aliens and everything else." She said, trying to break it to the woman gently. She knew what was going to happen to her, but she also knew that it would give her the life she wanted. "You know, brother's really can be a pain, but we love them all the same."
The woman sighed. "Yeah, I do love him, he's my brother after all. But I can't spend the rest of my life here in this flat living with him. I want so much more from life." Kathy told her.
All Kari could do was give her a smile. "And you'll get that, Kathy Nightingale. The life you have always dreamed of, the family you have always wanted, it's closer than you think." She told her.
"Are you able to see the future as well, then?"
She shrugged. "Occasionally. Just… tell your brother how much he means to you, before it's too late. You never know what is around the corner, Kathy, when your world changes forever with no way back."
Kathy nodded at her, taking in what she had said. "Yeah, I will. Because you're right, Kari, you never know what's going to happen. Live every day like it's your last."
"How can you two be so chatty first thing in the morning?" Sally moaned as she walked into the kitchen.
Kari couldn't help but chuckle a little. "Well, I live with someone who pretty much never shuts up, I think I've picked up a little bit of his rambling over time." She said, smiling away as she thought about the Doctor, her Doctor. "Now, pull yourself together, Miss Sparrow, we have a mysterious house to investigate."
It was just over an hour later and the trio were climbing over the metal gate to Wester Drumlin, off to take another look around the house. "Okay, let's investigate. The three of us, girl investigators." Kathy said as they started to walk towards the house.
"Hey, Sparrow and Nightingale. You know, that could work. I don't think Conner would really fit, I'd have to change my name." Kari said, smirking a little.
Sally looked at her and shrugged. "Bit ITV." She said, making Kari burst out laughing.
"Sorry, don't mind me. I have these moments when I just can't help myself. You two go on ahead." Kari said, trying her best to get herself under control. It was hard without the Doctor there, she liked it when he calmed her down and kept her quiet, she was missing him something terrible.
She watched as the other two women walked into the house, already knowing what was going to happen there at some point. Kari couldn't help but wonder if Kathy had spoken to her brother before they had left, or if Sally was still going to get the letter and pictures.
"Kari? Kari, come here!" She heard Sally calling, just as she had entered the house.
She rushed to where the other two were, in the conservatory of the old house. "What is it? What happened?" Kari asked, frantically looking around the room. "Are you both okay?"
"The Weeping Angel." Sally said, looking at the statue out in the garden.
Kari looked at it, and she knew what had happened. "Not bad in my garden." Kathy said, clearly admiring the stone angel that was outside with its hands covering its eyes.
"It's move." Kari said at the same time as Sally. "It's uh, totally complicated and really dangerous." Kari added, seeing both of them looking at her. "But it is closer. They're coming…"
"What do you mean, they're coming?" Sally asked, frowning at her.
Kari quickly shook her head. "Doesn't matter. Everything will work out fine. Everyone gets their happy ever after. Let's show Kathy the wall." She said, leading the way back into the drawing room where the message from the Doctor had been painted on the wall under the wallpaper.
"How can my name be written here?" Sally asked, looking at it once more. "How is that possible?" Kathy just looked over to Kari, wondering if she had anything to do with it. Sally didn't know the whole story, but Kathy did.
The three of them all jumped when the doorbell rang. "Who'd come here?" Kathy asked, before noticing Kari and Sally both heading towards the door. "What are you doing? It could be a burglar." She protested.
"A burglar who rings the doorbell?" Sally asked her, a slight smirk on her face.
"Okay, I'll stay here in case of…"
"Incidents?" Kari said, filling in the missing gap for Kathy. "Rule one, don't wander off." She whispered. "Unless there is a rather cute guy, then you can wander and see if he follows you. You'd be surprised who you can meet in a field in Hull." She said, before chasing after Sally towards the door.
When Kari reached the door, she saw a man standing there, checking Sally's driving licence, making sure that it really was her. When he looked up, he smiled at Kari. "You must be Miss Conner." He said to her, making her frown at him. "Do you have some sort of photo ID?"
Kari just pulled out her psychic paper, knowing that she could get away with it. She didn't have anything else on her, no passport or driving licence. It would be pretty hard for her to get, without the help of her big brother Jack that is. "You've had these for a while, haven't you? Who are they from, your grandmother?" Kari asked, already knowing the answer.
Sally sharply turned to look at her. "What do you know about this?" She asked, her tone letting Kari know that she was not happy nor impressed.
Kari shrugged her shoulders at the woman. "More than I should, the same as always. This isn't a joke, Sally, none of this. I know it seems like a joke, and you're going to think that this is sick, but it is real. Everything that is happening around you is real."
"What are you talking about? Who's it from?" Sally demanded.
A sigh slipped past Kari's lips. "Katherine Wainwright, previously known as Kathy Nightingale." She whispered, just as there came a loud bang from somewhere. "I'll leave the pair of you to talk. This isn't my place. When you're ready, you'll find me Sally, you'll have the key by then as well." Kari said, before facing the man. "Thank you." She said, taking the letter from him and walking out of the house.
"Kari, where the hell are you going? This isn't funny! What do you mean 'key?' Kari!" Sally shouted at her. Kari just kept her eyes focused on the path ahead of her, not able to turn and face the woman who had just lost her best friend.
The further away from the house she got, the more curious she became about the letter that had been left for her by the woman she had only met hours ago. Kari wasn't sure she even wanted to know what was in it, but she had to read it, she knew she did.
She found herself sitting on a bench in a park, not bothered with the weather and the grey clouds that were thickening above her head. Kari carefully opened the old and yellowed envelop and pulled out the pages of paper inside of it.
'My friend Kari Conner. Who knew that meeting you would change my life so dramatically. I know that you understand what happened, so I do not need to explain it all to you as I have for Sally. You knew what was going to happen, that I would find myself in a field with a young man who would then follow me, in Hull. His name is Ben, and he is everything I have ever wanted. We married and had children, the youngest was named after Sally, but after you as well. Sally Kari Wainwright.' Kari was a little shocked at that, at the fact that her daughter had been partially named after her. 'I know that you will see me again, and that the truth about your life really was true. Time travel is possible, and it was so good to see you once more. The news of Sally and Larry made me happy. Thank you, Kari Conner, for allowing me to have a second chance of life. I have been so happy and could not have asked for more.'
"Oh, Kathy. I didn't do anything." Kari said, letting out a sigh. "It was pure luck that the time the Angel sent you back to was a time that made you happy." She whispered to herself. "But at least I know that I can come and visit you some time. Hull in the 1920's, huh? I can't wait, Kathy, I'll make sure to bring the Doctor along with me."
She sat there for a while, thinking things over and wondering how long it would be until she visited Kathy and got to tell her everything that was going on with her best friend and brother. Kari had been so lost in thought that she almost forgot what happened next. She stuffed the letter into her pocket, before jumping to her feet and running towards Queen Street.
Kari stopped outside of Banto's DVD Store, smiling as she pushed the door open. "Larry in the back?" She asked the large man at the counter, so absorbed in his TV that hardly even noticed her, just waved a hand at her.
She walked through to the back, and saw him sitting there, staring at the screens that were showing the Doctor and Martha. "Lawrence Nightingale?" She said, making him jump a little.
"Uh, yeah. And you are…" He asked her, before once of the screens started playing. He quickly paused it, on a frame that made Kari's eyes widen. Larry seemed to have noticed it as well. "Oh, my God! It's you! You're Kari!" He said, pointing at her and looking stunned.
She let out a sigh and dragged a hand down her face. "Yes, I'm Kari, and that is the Doctor and Martha." She said, pointing at the screen. "They're trapped in 1969, the Angels have the phone box, don't blink. Yup, that's me."
"How'd you do it?" The man asked, still gawping at her.
"Uh, do what, exactly?" Kari asked, feeling more than just a little confused.
"The DVD's, why? How? What was the point of it? What's the answer to it all?" He asked, seemingly really excited at meeting Kari.
Kari didn't get to answer him, as luckily a voice she recognised called through to the back. "Hello?"
"Better go and see who that is, Larry." Kari said, pushing him out from the room and towards the other room with the other screens in it.
He just blinked at her as he was shoved into another room to face yet another woman. "Oh, hello. Can I help you?" He asked, as the woman glanced behind him at Kari.
"Hi." Sally said, just as the recording started playing once more on it's own.
Larry reached down and grabbed the control. Er, just a mo." He said, quickly stopping it as Kari walked around him and stood beside Sally, looking at the screens. "Hang on. We've met, haven't we?" He asked, looking at Sally intensely.
Sally just grinned at him, waiting for him to realise. "It'll come to you."
A moment later his face fell, and his hands automatically went to cover himself up. "Oh, my God." Sally just grinned at him some more while Kari chuckled a little. "Oh, and you were there as well." He suddenly realised. "Sorry. Sorry again about the whole…"
But Sally cut him off. "Message from your sister. She's had to go away for a bit." She told him, while he asked her where. "Just a work thing. Nothing to worry about. And, she loves you." Sally said, stunning him a little.
"She what?" He asked, clearly not able to register what she had said.
"She said to say. She just sort of mentioned it. She loves you. There, that's nice, isn't it?" Sally said, making the man even more suspicious of what was going on ad making him think his sister was maybe even sick. "She loves you."
Suddenly the image on the screen flickered into life. "Yeah. Yeah, people don't understand time. It's not what you think it is…" Kari heard the Doctor say, before Larry paused the screen.
"It's a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff." Kari mumbled to her self.
Sally glanced at Kari out of the corner of her eye before looking over at her best friends brother. "Who is this guy? Last night at Kathy's, you had him on all those screens. That same guy. Talking about, I don't know, blinking or something."
Larry's eyes lit up. "Yeah, the bit about the blinking's great. I was just checking to see if they were all the same."
"And they are all the same." Kari announced. "It's like a DVD extra, Sally. Something that was put there, but hidden. You have to follow the clues to find it."
"Complicated." The Doctor called, before the screen was paused again.
"Sorry. It's interesting, actually. He is on seventeen different DVDs. There are seventeen totally unrelated DVDs, all with him and her on." He said, looking pointedly at Kari. "Always hidden away, always secret. Not even the publishers know how he got there. I've talked to the manufacturers, right? They don't even know."
The pair actually just stared at Kari, wondering if she was going to be able to answer any of the things that they didn't know. "Yup, I do know how it got there. But it's a long story, and not that easy to explain, it's a complicated life I lead." She told them, before the screen once more came to life all on it's own.
"Very complicated."
"Yes, thank you Doctor, I already know that." Kari grumbled. Before anyone could say anything else, Larry was called to the front of the shop and she was left alone with Sally. "Look, I know this is kind of freaky and scary, and I'm sorry. But Kathy lived a good life, a happy life."
"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff." The Doctor on the screen suddenly said, making Kari smile at the screen sadly and Sally look a little bemused.
"Started well, that sentence." Sally commented, her eyes flicking between the screen and Kari. That was when she noticed the glassy look on her face, her eyes glistening with tears.
"It… got away from me, yeah." The Doctor said, freaking Sally out a little bit.
"Okay, that was weird." She said, backing up a little. "Like you can hear me."
"Well he can hear you." Kari said, at the same time the Doctor told her they he could hear her. "Well, sort of. Oh the joys of being a time traveller." She grumbled, as Sally paused the DVD once more.
With the control still in her hand, she waved it threateningly at the screen. "Okay, that's enough. I've had enough now. I've had a long day and I've had bloody enough." She shouted, just as Larry came back into the room, looking at her strangely. "Sorry. Bad day."
"Got you the list." The man told her, holding up a piece of paper. Sally just looked at him in confusion, having no idea what he was talking about. "The seventeen DVDs. I thought you might be interested."
"Yeah, great. Thanks." Sally said, taking the paper from him and starting to walk back to the front of the shop, with Kari quick to follow her.
"Go to the police, you stupid woman. Why does nobody ever just go to the police?" Banto, the owner of the shop who was still watching the television, shouted to the screen.
By the time the pair had reached the police station, they were soaked from the rain that had been hammering down on them. "Who are you and why are you on those DVDs as well?" Sally demanded, stopping just before entering the doors to the police station.
"I told you, my name is Kari, and it's complicated. The Doctor and Martha are stuck in 1969, I don't know how I am on the DVDs, I'm not there with them." Kari told her. "Well, not unless…" She stopped and turned around, noticing a Weeping Angel on the building across the street from them. "Sally, just get inside." She said, pushing the woman in before her.
While Sally explained everything that had been going on, Kari drifted off into her own little world. She already knew that the Angels were going to be following Sally, because she had the key, the key to the TARDIS. But now, now she was wondering if she was going to be touched by an Angel as well.
Kari quickly shook her head, trying to rid herself of all those thoughts. She was with Sally, and everything would soon be fixed. She would have the Doctor back, and they would be off travelling once more.
"So over the last two years, the owners of all these vehicles have driven up to Wester Drumlins House, parked outside, and just disappeared?" Sally asked the detective who was standing there with them. Kari hadn't realised she had drifted into her world for so long.
Her eyes fixed on the blue box that was sitting in the corner, and a smile spread across her face. "Oh, oh I am so glad to see you, sexy." She whispered, walking towards it slowly.
"What's that?" Sally asked, following behind Kari.
"Ah, the pride of the Wester Drumlins collection. We found that there too. Somebody's idea of a joke, I suppose." DI Shiption told her, while Kari kept edging closer to it.
"No a joke." She whispered, her hand reaching out towards the box a little.
"But what is it? What's a police box?" Sally asked, watching Kari cautiously. Even though she had only met the woman, there was something about her that made her like her, even if she was strange.
"It's from the 1960's. Police could arrest people and put them in there, then call for back up." Kari told her, her hand now lightly resting on the door of the blue box.
"We can't even get in it." DI Shipton announced. "Ordinary Yale lock, but nothing fits it." The moment he had said that, the door clicked open, making both him and Sally look at Kari with wide eyes.
Kari smiled to herself as the TARDIS let her in, quickly slamming the door shut behind her before either Sally or the DI could get in. But it turned out that stepping inside the TARDIS had been a mistake, as her head started spinning, a steady pounding beginning to make her feel sick. She was being pulled somewhere else, and she had only been in the TARDIS for a matter of seconds.
A/N: Bet you didn't see that one coming! I'm making sure to get lots of Jack in, because he really is just like her big brother and of course he is going to keep checking up on her.
I know there was little to no Doctor in this, but that's the episode. Or is it? Bwahahahaha, I'm feeling a little evil and sly at the moment, so I'm not going to tell.
On to the thanks. Thank you to everyone who has followed the story, I'm really glad you guys like it and are still reading it even with my pathetic excuses for updates. And a massive thank you to everyone who has taken the time to review, I love reviews, and I love you all!
Pippa.
