Nestor just stared at the two of them in shock, Snowy barked and jumped out of the girls' arms.
"Mind if we come in? No of course you don't." said the Doctor. The two strangers walked in and followed Snowy, Nestor followed still a little confused. As they walked down the hall, the two people stopped in front of the grandmother clock.
"Rose look at this, aw isn't she a beauty, what do you think early 20th century?"
"Oh you don't say, I was thinking more nineteenthcentury."
"Well ya about. Wonder what year it is."
Snowy barked and they continued on their rather fast way through the mansion, talking quickly and rather excitedly the entire way.
Down the hall and in the parlor, Tintin swore he heard Snowy barking. The door was slightly open; they heard people talking about the clock? Snowy ran into the room barking, he jumped into Tintin's lap.
"SNOWY!" he shouted. The little dog licked his face, while the boy laughed.
The Doctor heard laughing from the room the dog went into, he opened the door and walked in.
The Captain jumped when the door burst open, turning he saw a tall thin man with messy brown hair, followed by a blonde woman and a rather confused looking Nestor. The Captain stood up and walked over to the new comers.
"Thundering typhoons, who are you and how did you get in here?" the Captain said.
"Oh well I'm the Doctor, this is Rose, and the dog let us in." the man replied. Tintin looked up; Snowy was still licking his face off.
"You're alive!" Tintin shouted.
"Of course were alive, I'm the Doctor." The man replied.
"I saw the monster take you away, I thought you guys were…dead."
"Oh well, Rose thought we were too, he drug us into the woods before I managed to get free and knock him down. Unfortunately he got away, and to make things worse I lost my sonic screwdriver in the fight. Which is why we're here, you see this device," he said while pulling and odd looking box out of his coat, "goes 'ding' when there's stuff. I'm using it to track my screwdriver, which by the way is hard to program without it. Anyway so it lead us to your door step, do you happen to have…oh hello, what's this?" The Doctor walked over to the radio that exploded earlier, the Captain stood next to him arms folded.
"Did you try to use my screwdriver?" the Doctor asked, Tintin looked at him puzzled. The Captain pulled the 'pen' out of the drawer, with two fingers like it would bite him.
"We were trying to figure out this pen, and then it killed the radio." The Captain said. The Doctor looked surprised then burst out laughing; he carefully took the 'pen' and turned it over in his hand.
"Oh this isn't at all a pen, this is my sonic screwdriver, I use it for everything…" the Doctor put the device in his coat pocket, Tintin sat up.
"Oh I'm sorry, we haven't introduced ourselves, I'm Tintin, the reporter." Rose walked over and shook his hand.
"I'm Rose Tyler, companion to the Doctor." She said smiling; Tintin looked at the Captain waiting for him to introduce himself.
"Captain Archibald Haddock, retired sailor." Haddock said, the Doctor grabbed his hand and shook it.
"I'm the Doctor, time traveler, genius, and protector of the universe."
"That's quite a title, Doctor." Tintin said.
"Yes well, it's all in a day's work, time travel, saving the worlds, though it seems to be mostly earth." He put his hands in his pocket. "Well then we should be off, got a monster to track down, Rose needs to be home before dinner."
"What?" she said with a giggle.
"Anyway, thanks for returning my screwdriver, hope all goes well with you lot."
"Wait, wouldn't you like a drink or dinner before you go?" Tintin asked.
The Doctor and Rose exchanged glances, and then they both smiled.
"Maybe next time Tintin, but right now we need to hunt down that monster." Nestor showed them out, with Haddock following behind. Walking out the door the Doctor turned around.
"Oh Captain by the way," he lowered his voice "If anything out of the ordinary happens, anything at all, you come get me right away, understood?" the Doctor gave him a very stern look.
"I will Doctor." Haddock replied. The Doctor nodded to Nestor then walked down the stairs looking in the direction of the woods. They watched as the two strangers walked down the road and turned the corner. When they were out of sight Nestor and Haddock went back inside. Haddock went into the parlor to discuss with Tintin, what their next course of action should be.
