Sarah Jane Adventures X Doctor Who
A Yellow Christmas
Chapter Two
The Tardis moaned loudly as she swayed back and forth while traveling through space. Clara noticed the ship's attitude and looked across the console at The Doctor who was trying his best to calm the old girl down.
"Any luck?" Clara asked.
"None, I can't seem to find out what's troubling her." The Doctor responded.
Clara stepped back as the doctor moved around the console pressing every button and pulling every lever. He sighed loudly as the moaning only seem to grow louder and more frequent.
Soon a loud thump shook the Tardis, the moaning stop as a picture showed up on the monitor. Clara and the Doctor looked at the snow covered streets but Clara noticed something odd about the picture. The snow wasn't white at all …it was yellow.
The Doctor's eyes remained fixed on the screen he titled his head in confusion as he continued to stare at the yellow substance. For everything he has seen through space and time this was new hence he found it quite fascinating.
The Tardis hummed which prompted the time lord to only nod in agreement.
"You're right it's time we get a better look at what is going on." The Doctor said.
The Doctor slipped his jacket off the coat rack while Clara wrapped herself up in a nice beige winter coat. She looked to the time lord who only nodded in return.
"Come on it's time to get a better look at this yellow snow." The Doctor said seriously.
Clara nodded as the Doctor snapped his fingers causing the Tardis doors to swing open. The two of them exited the Tardis cautiously as a brisk cold wind welcomed them. The moment they set foot outside the blue police box shut it's door and dematerialized before their eyes.
"That isn't good is it?" Clara asked.
"No, whatever is going on she doesn't like it one bit." The 12th Doctor replied.
The Doctor and Clara continue down the street. The silence emulated throughout the neighborhood even the wind refused to blow and the birds were nowhere to be found.
Clara looked down to see the Doctor analyzing the snow with his sonic screwdriver. When she noticed a familiar silhouette on the sidewalk; it looked circular in nature with a top hat and a deformed nose along with two skinny arms. Her ears picked up a strange bouncing sound coming from behind her. So with a deep breath she slowly turned around, her eyes widen and heart raced a bit for their bouncing before her was a yellow snowman with an evil smirk across his black coal lips.
"Um…Doctor." Clara stuttered.
"Just a minute I am almost finished." The timelord said in his usually annoyed tone.
Clara backed up slowly until she bumped into the time lord she reached behind her and tapped him on the shoulder. The Doctor turned around to protest only to see a yellow snowman with an evil smile welcoming him.
The Doctor rose to his feet as another snowman bounced over to join them. As the two of them continued to back up slowly the yellow snowmen bounced closer and closer.
"I think it's time for us to go." the Doctor said.
The Doctor took a hold of Clara's hand and the two of them took off running down the sidewalk with two yellow snowmen bouncing after them. They would jump on occasion due to the snowmen spewing a yellow slush in their direction.
Clara did her best to keep up but she was only human she needed to rest. Breathing heavily she could feel her sweaty hand slip out of the Doctor's grasp, the moment she no longer felt his presents she stumbled to the ground.
Clara shakily rose to her feet, with her legs feeling like jelly and energy all spent she stood there looking the Snowmen straight in the face as they opened their vast cold mouths.
"Clara!"
The Doctor jumped in front of his companion as the snowmen blasted him with a yellow slushy substance. The impact knocked them both to the ground as the slush attached itself to their skin.
Clara could feel the cold mass covering her shoes and slowly moving up to her waist. She looked up to see the Doctor encased in the slush up to his neck.
Clara blinked away her tears as she felt the slush reach her neck and slowly making its way into her hair. As for the Doctor the only thing visible on the time lord was his face.
"Clara…" The Doctor whispered.
"It's okay I know." Clara said calmly.
The slush finally covered her face as a cold darkness welcomed them both. The last thing Clara could hear was the two snowmen bounced away, for their mission was finally complete as silence once again echoed the streets of Bannerman Road.
