Chapter 2
A/N I don't own anything that you recognize. Thank you Alice and the Tweedles for becoming the first and so far only follower of this story.
The twelfth doctor sat across from Clara in a little cafe. He was a very sad timelord. He knew that she would want to stay on Earth with her boyfriend now that he was back from the dead. After all, why would she want to travel with him while she could stay there with PE.
As much as he would never admit it, even to himself most days, he was quite fond of her. He enjoyed traveling with her, and felt like he needed her by his side. It was why in his eleventh incarnation when he was dying that he had called her. He had known that she would be scared.
Now though he would have to let her go. It would be the best for both of them if he went on his next adventure alone. He was ready to tell her such when he suddenly got a twinge in his head. He brushed it off and went to try to tell her once again that she should just stay there with Danny. Again he was stopped by a pain in his temples.
By this point Clara was looking at him quite funnily. "What is wrong doctor?" she asked him.
"I don't..." The doctor had to stop again as the pain came in the fiercest wave yet and this time it didn't want to let up. He didn't notice as he fell to the floor in agony. What was wrong with him?
"Doctor. Doctor!" He faintly heard Clara call. He could see images, memories running through his mind. Memories that he didn't remember a few minutes previously. Memories that he didn't even realize were missing.
The images continued to flash. Missy standing over him with a wild maned women. A shot of light that caused him great pain.
He tried to take in deep breaths and figure out what was going on. Suddenly he caught the image of himself in a mirror. It was a familiar and yet foreign appearance of lanky man with brown hair and a pinstriped suit. He had trainers on his feet and glasses that were broken by his side. He was also clearly in pain.
His tenth self. Something was happening to his tenth self. Something had hadn't happened to him. Missy. What did Missy do? She took him out his time to do what? And who was it that was with her?
"Doctor! Doctor!" came a loud yelling.
"What! Can't you see I'm in pain!" The doctor yelled right back at a startled Clara.
Seeing that he scared her he said, "I'm sorry Clara, but give me space to think."
"Alright. Sorry." she said backing up with her hands up in a placating gesture.
He closed his eyes and used a meditative technique that he had learned centuries before to close off his pain from the rest of his senses. He couldn't have it clouding his judgment. He needed to focus and fix what was going on.
It was obvious that whatever Missy was doing was interfering with him being well him. She was messing with the timeline though not as much as could happen. She could cause a paradox! After all if she did something to his tenth self it could mean erasing him from existence which would mean that she wouldn't end up there wherever there was to take his tenth self there.
He had to stop her. First he had to get to wherever it was that she had been sent to.
"Clara." He said as he finally became aware of what was going on around him. Noticing that he was on the floor surrounded by worried patrons of the cafe he said; "What are you standing around gawking about, we need to go." He pulled her out of the cafe, ignoring her yell of "Doctor what are we doing?"
He pulled her into the Tardis and turned to speak to her. "Clara listen to me this is very important. Stand there and don't ask questions. We don't have time understood?" "Understood?" He said firmer as she went to protest.
"Good. Now Missy is messing with my past and could cause a paradox. We are going to stop her from potentially making a hole in the space time continuum and making the whole universe cease to exist. To do that I need to use the Tardis's telepathic link to go back to that event. I need you to stay silent and not distract me. One distraction and as you know I could end up somewhere else. It is imperative that you shush." Clara nodded wide eyed at the doctor.
The doctor flipped some switched and readied his hands. "Hold on. Here we go." he plunged his hands into the purple brain looking part of the Tardis console.
The doctor tried to keep his mind focused on the images he had seen. Imagined showing up not far from where the event taking place were happening. His focus was tested as the Tardis seemed to hit what felt like a wall of Jello shaking the entire console along with he and Clara. In the background the cloister bell began to toll.
"Doctor!" Clara yelled.
"Shush!" He yelled back at her.
This went on for a minute more before with a thump the Tardis landed and all was eerily silent.
"Doctor. Where are we." Clara asked as she got up from her position where she had ended up on the floor.
The doctor took his hands out of the console. "I don't know Clara. Let's have a look at the monitor shall we."
The Doctor lithely moved over to the monitor and began to stare at it.
"Doctor. What is it? Where are we?"
"Come have a look for yourself." The doctor replied back.
Clara moved slowly towards the monitor, weary of anything that could make the doctor stare at it. Gazing upon it, she saw a castle that seemed have several chunks taken out of it, and coming from said castle were several very clearly cautious people who were in robes with long sticks pointed at them.
"Is that?"
"Hogwarts? Yes I believe it is." Said the doctor with a smile.
They both turned back to the monitor as the wizards surrounded the Tardis.
