"In this timeline, The Doctor's timeline, we only got married just under a year ago."

"But from your point of view, it's been how long?"

"Nearly 16 years." She sighed, wiping a tear from her eye. "Timelines, he get's them very wrong sometimes, but I couldn't tell him, otherwise he'd go back and get me in the past, and I couldn't have that."

"But why, I don't understand what was so wrong?"

"I done something so terrible while he was away, and I couldn't bare him finding out, it would break his hearts."

"Did you cheat on him? Cause 16 years, I think he'd understand."

"No, no, no! Oh god no, of course not! Look, you can't tell him, promise?"

"No I won't." I stuttered, trying to get my head around it. I was so confused, why was River lying about how long it had been since they were married? What had she done? Death as a time traveller, that's what I had to find out. "River."

"Yes sweetie?" She asked, stroking my hair.

"What's death as a time traveller mean?"

"I don't know. Why?"

"Just something, don't worry." I said, getting up and heading for the door.

"And where do you think your going?" The Doctor said, opening the door, nearly knocking me over and catching me.

"For a walk." I muttered, trying to get past.

"Your ill Mai."

"I'm here in The TARDIS, I can't get much more safer can I?" I called to him, pushing past and pottering down a corridor.

I walked for a few minutes, walking back a few steps when a baby pink coloured door appeared out of nowhere, not there a few moments before. I placed my hand gently on it, pushing it forward and walked in. I was in a prison, in the corridor outside a cell. Inside the cell was a blonde woman, hair falling over her face, sitting on a bed, clutching a blue diary that looked like The TARDIS.

"Oh my god, River..." I whispered. Her head flung up, her eyes red and puffy, she looked right through me, like she couldn't see me. I slowly walked forward, holding onto the bars of the cell, looking into her.

"Doctor Song." A voice said, looking to my side there was a soldier, talking to her.

"Have you heard from him? My husband?"

"Nothing."

She sighed, more tears falling from her cheeks. "Where is he? He said he'd come for me." She looked back at the soldier. "How is-"

"Fine." He interupted. "We've contacted the Shadow Proclamation."

"It's for the best. I couldn't anyway, not here." She sighed. "If he ever comes here, he must never know."

"We know Doctor Song. Do you wish to sa-"

"No." She said quickly. "I don't think I could."

"Ok." The soldier said, walking of quickly. River bashed her head against the wall, crying silently.

"River." I said, her not reacting this time. "Whatever's happened. It'll be ok. I promise."

Everything started to move quickly, I looked up to the ceiling in despair, spinning round. It all eventually stopped and I looked back round at the cell, River sitting there, crying. The tears streamed down her face and I walked into the cell, the door wide open and a soldier left. I sat down next to her and peered into her arms. She was holding a small bundle, wrapped round a big pink blanket. Inside was a tiny baby, looking only minutes old, sleeping peacefully.

"River?" I whispered.

"I'm so sorry Mai."

I didn't get a chance to reply. I found myself falling out of the door, landing with a thud in the TARDIS corridor again. I felt it best not to say anything to River, because I had a feeling everything would be revealed soon. Enough was enough, I was tired of timelines going funny and secrets being whispered. I ran along to the control room, where The Doctor was once again, under the console, fiddling with bits and bobs. I sat down on the stairs, as he turned to me and smiled.

"Doctor."

"Yes?"

"If you were in danger, and you had none of your little tricks up your sleeve, who would you want to come help you, rescue you even?"

"Like with the reality bomb and the 27 planets?" He stopped for a moment, being alien and taking in metaphorically. "Well, you obviously, River, The Ponds, Martha and Mickey, Jack and Gwen. Erm... Well Sarah Jane if you got in the right time stream or not so if she had passed by then, then her kids, and I suppose Rose, but she's in a parralel universe so..." He murmered. "And Donna." He finished. "But she wouldn't be any help, because off what happened, y'know." He said, looking back to what he was doing. He had told me everything that had happened with Donna, it broke his heart everytime he thought of it. "Why?" He said, speaking more cheerfully.

"Just wondering." I was gonna need to remember all those names, because I think I had finally figured out the voices, I needed those people to finish the paradox, I still had no clue what was going on, or what I was defending us from, but it wern't gonna be big or pretty. He hopped of his seat and we headed up to the main level, The Doctor starting to head up the stairs.

"You coming to bed?" He asked.

"Yeah just a sec." I smiled. "Just wanna watch the vortex for a bit."

"Ok." He grinned, walking off into the ship. I rushed over to the console, flicking switches and buttons, putting her on silent. I opened up her psychic barriers so she could talk to me.

'We need to find a cure for Donna first.'

'Please! Why do I have to do this?'

'They all have to be here, to save him!'

'But why do I have to lose him!'

'He's gonna be in bigger danger than ever before, and yes he'll hate you for it, but would you rather him die?'

'How much time do we have til he's in danger then?'

'Hours at the most.'

'Well how are we gonna sort Donna out, let alone get Rose back?'

'We can't get Rose til after something happens yet.'

'And what's that?'

'Look, we have to sort out Donna! Just leave me to sort this, we'll finish in the morning.'

...

I woke up to the screams of Amy, and the shouts of Rory. I ran through the corridors to the control room, already dressed. I looked down at what I was wearing, the black leather jacket and the black jeans. Today was the day. I don't know how I was dressed, but I was.

"What's going on?"

"They've gone, The Doctor and River, have just gone!"

"But how?" I asked in confusion.

"Well they're not showing up on the scanner, and were in the vortex, so they couldn't have gone outside." Rory said baffled, pacing up and down.

I ran over to the controls, flying her to New Earth, it was time I had a chat with myself. I explained to Rory and Amy what The TARDIS had told me in my brain, but not what I had seen or the voices either. We slowly headed outside, just by the teleportation deck of Scholop. Beams and lasers started firing our way, hundreds of aliens and soldiers after us, god knows what for, but it was that day I had been dreading, why was I suprised? We grabbed the bracelets from the side, as they got closer and closer.

"HEY YOU LOT!" A voice shouted, they all turn and span, as a green man stood a few metres from us.

"And who are you?" They barked.

"Cyclo Jahoon, and you better leave them alone!" I grinned as we teleported onto The Face Of Boe's ship, I guess he was expecting us.

I looked at myself in the reflection off one of the walls of the ship. I had blood and dirt on my face. It was time to go.

"Amy! Rory!" I called over to them, as they panic spluttered what had happened to Novice Hane. "I have to go."

"You can't leave us!"

"I'll only be a few minutes, I'll be back. Ask Boe, where to find him and Gwen roughly in our time line." I said, pressing a few buttons and teleporting off.

Asgard. It was really beautiful. I slowly walked down the slope the opposite side I came down before and sat down next to me.

"I remember the feeling of it." I looked at her, so young and free, not knowing what was coming. "Before you ask, yes I am you. I'm just remembering everything I said when I was you, and when it's your turn, you'll have to remember all this too, to tell yourself."

"What happened to you- me?"

"You have to be prepared ok? Because Mum and Dad did want us. There is a storm coming, and let's just say we have to fight a angel."

"The angel the Goverhype was talking about?"

"Yes."

"Mum and Dad, if they wanted us, why did Mum let them take us away?"

"She had no choice."

"The voices, when I touch The TARDIS..."

"I'm still not that sure about that."

"That's our voice though!"

"I know." I sighed. "Your gonna have to prepare for the worst, your gonna have to be a proper time traveller ok? Your gonna have to fight, and try and put on a brave face, for everyone's sake." I got up, looking up the sky before looking at her again. "Don't tell them lot ok?"

"It's gonna be some battle eh?" She said, nodding to the state I was in.

I smiled weakly, teleporting back.

"It's time." I whispered.
