"We have confirmation that the first missile has struck."
"Where? What damage did it cause?"
"In a park, and it killed a boy. Ryan George is his name."
"Where is the missile?"
"That's the problem, the missile has disappeared."
"WHAT? How can this happen?"
"No confirmation on where the missile is located so far."
"Maybe the Doctor knows. Maybe he hid it."
"We shall see. If it was him, then he will probably go to it to make sure it hasn't been found."
"Years," corrected Allie.
"I'm sorry," said the Doctor.
"Years," she repeated. "It's been a few years since…that day."
"Really?" he asked, as he tried to remember what happened in the TARDIS.
The Doctor and Bellalyse walked into the TARDIS after their little "adventure" on the planet Midnight. The Doctor wanted to actually see the Diamond Mountains and was so ecstatic when Bellalyse said she did too!
"It was beautiful," she raved and she circled the TARDIS. "And the fact that you'd die if you stepped outside made it interesting."
"I know right! I'm just glad the train didn't stop this time 'round and we DIDN'T run into anything that would kill us."
The Doctor's eyes traveled throughout the TARDIS, as he heard Bellalyse ramble in the background. They eventually fell on something black slightly hidden behind a oddly shaped pillar he often used as a coat rack. We walked towards it, ignoring Bellalyse's rambling, and picked it up. He knew what this was, and it brought back horrid memories.
It was Allie's coat. She must have left it in the TARDIS. Then again, she couldn't really grab it before he left; she was unconscious. He brought the coat towards his chest, and hugged it slightly. He could feel tears building up in his eyes, but he refused to let them fall.
"Doctor," he heard Bellalyse say in the background. "DOCTOR!" she yelled.
The Doctor snapped out of his gaze and turned towards her.
"You alright?" she asked, noticing his eyes.
"Yeah," he said, wiping them quickly. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Silence.
"So, where to next?" she asked.
Making up his mind, the Doctor decided where to go next.
"How about we pay a little trip to Earth," he said. "We've been traveling the stars for a while. Why not see what trouble we'll cause down there eh?"
"Okay…" said Bellalyse, a little confused why the Doctor suddenly wanted to go to Earth. Of all the small planets in the solar system he picks Earth. "Onward?"
"Allons-y!"
The Doctor tried to make it so that he would come to Earth a few days after his little "encounter" with Becker. Obviously that didn't work out as planned. He would have to have a talk with the TARDIS later on.
"So…" he said, trying to start a conversation.
"DOCTOR, WOULD YOU PLEASE CARE TO EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS GOING ON HERE?" screamed his companion from behind him.
Ah, Bellalyse, always comes in at the right time, he thought.
"Allie, I would like to introduce you to Bellalyse Winchester. Bellalyse is an old friend from the planet Rancoon. We go way back—well, strictly speaking we met after I regenerated into my ninth self, but that's beside the point."
"Nice to meet you," said Bellalyse holding out her hand to shake. Allie shook it, but could felt a twinge of jealousy. How could the Doctor get another companion just like that? Well, then again, who knows how long it's been for him since…that day.
"Now Allie, you may be wondering why Bellalyse looks like a human. Well that's because…"
"…Rancoon is a planet which humans discover in the year 4 billion. In the year 5,900,000,000, humans started coming to the planet to live. Rancoon is very similar to Earth; the atmosphere, the shape, the gravitational pull, you know what I mean. My mum was Rancoonian and my dad was part human, part new-human. And, the Rancoonians have the same exterior appearance as the humans."
"Okay…" said Allie, unsure of how to respond to the statement.
"Allie," called Damian from the top of the ditch. "I just contacted the ARC. They want us to head back. They're sending your dad and the tropes to handle the anom—al—y…."
Damian had now made his way to the bottom of the ditch to Allie, and noticed the Doctor standing in front of them with Bellalyse by his side.
"Good," said Allie as she turned to face the Doctor, "because I know somebody who really wants to see you."
Allie then walked right past him and headed back towards Damian's car. The Doctor's eyes followed her, filled with complete sadness. Damian was shocked to see Allie act like this. He turned to Damian and held out his hand.
"Damian Brooks, sir," he said.
"The Doctor," was the reply as he followed Allie out of the ditch. "Come on Bellalyse," he shouted as he made his way up. "It's time to go get yelled at."
Damian and Bellalyse gave each other confused looks before following him. What nobody noticed though, was a figure move in the tree near-by. When everybody had left the site and nobody could be seen, the figure jumped out of the tree and ran in the direction of Damian's car.
