the clock waited gathering dust in the corner slicing the minutes and killing the hours with its hands.
"Tick tock goes the clock and what now then shall we play?"
Little Amelia tugged at Rory's hand as they moved though the crowd to get in line for the new roller coaster ride.
They had ride all bracelet tickets on and plenty of spending money for the concession stands. Amy loved the fair , her dad and mum used to take her every year until... What? What happened? She couldn't remember and when she tried to she got a sick filling all over so she stopped trying.
Rory said he had never been to a fair before but he said that he would go if she wanted him to.
Rory was Amy's best friend he was skinny, awkward and cynical and a tad paranoid. He seemed so lost at times he would stare at the stars at night and Amelia would wonder if he was trying to remember his parents too.
He would say something totally brilliant and then try to cover it up with something dumb. Amy occasionally caught him crying and when she asked why he said he couldn't remember but she knew he was lying.
He could be so funny at time's he knew things grownup's didn't understand but know little about things every 8-year-old should know.
When they finely got on the roller coaster ride and it shot up the track Amy's heart did a flip in her chest squeezing Rory's hand as they gained speed and it felt like they where going to fall to their death it was scary and thrilling at the same time amy glanced over at Rory and he grinned back at her.
When the ride was over they both had trouble walking straight the ground kept moving causing them to laugh hysterically,
They went on that way the rest of the day , trying all the rides out at least once having fun laughing and talking .
Around noon they took a break for lunch. Rory frownd at his hot dog " what the hell is in a hot dog anyway?" He wondered he glanced up at Amy she had half of hers finished already he sighed and bit down on the odd food he'd do anything to make Amelia happy because when she smiled at him the ache inside of him hurt less it never went away but it was better.
"Tick tock goes the clock, now summers gone away?"
Rory hurried over to Amy's house Brian his adoptive father had taken him up to Landon for Easter brake he'd had just gotten back that afternoon and he was looking forward to seeing amy again.
Amy looked up from the picture she was coloring when rory burst through the door all out of breath and cheeks red from excitement, his grinn reminded her of the Cheshire. cat it was so big.
He slipped into a chair and began to tell her about how boring his trip was she pretend to listen to him and continued to work on her picture with a blue crayon.
Rory stopped talking when he saw what Amy was drawing. It was a blue box with windows and the words police box written in black crayon above the twin doors a man in a tattered suit stood next to the box.
Rory's heart skipped a beat as foreign memory's flooded his mind making his eyes sting ,the blue box was a tardis he know that he even known how to fly one
Even though the man's face was different he knew who it was .his name was Theta sigma no wait he didn't call him self that any more the doctor yes that was it his name was the doctor!
Amy noticed his sudden silence and though he was done so she started to tell him about her raggedy doctor. Rory listened with a stoney face as she told him of prisoner zero time machines and funny aliens.
With each word Rory's heart sinks the doctor had so many friends and he had only one. Amy would probably choose to travel with the doctor and leave him alone .Rory felt a twing of hate for the time lord burn inside how dare he take away amy from him!
Suddenly he remembered the last time he saw the doctor lying on the Nash mansion floor in broken glass bleeding, heartbroken and lost, he didn't even Flinch when rassilon pointed his gantlet of death at him and declared he would die with him the doctor Just bowed his head in defeat and said I know.
Rory felt a deep red creep into his face along with a sense of shame for thinking about his old friend like that of corse Amy could travle with him maybe the doctor woud let him come to .
he must have just regenerated why Else would he eat fish fingers and custerd?
But then his friend always had weird taste , like wareing a celery stock in his lapel and that god awful coat that if you stared at it you where sure to go blind, Rory realized he missed him .
His head was ponding from the effort of remembering so for the moment he let go of the past and just enjoyed his companions company because he might not have her much longer.
Amy was sad her raggedy doctor still had not come back it had been weeks and to make matters worse she had told her Anunt about her new friend and now she thought Amy was mad and had been taking her to a psychologist every Saturday !
Rory wanted to know why she was so sad amy looked down at her feet for awhile before answering him.
Instead of laughing at her when she told him about going to the psychologist he smiled kindly
"We're all a little mad Amiela its what makes life an adventure don't listen to what they say there stupid"
"I don't like them they say the doctor isn't real I don't want to go back" amy sighed
"Well you could bite them I bet that would do the trick" Rory suggested with a grinn. Amy giggled at that rory was always there for her she couldn't stay sad with him there.
Rory was eating his lunch in the hospital cafatera where he worked as a nurse when he saw something that made him lose his apatite. A women and two little girls walked past where he was sitting and out of the cafeteria.
Nothing unusual about that except for the fact that they where in a comma up stairs, he tried to follow them but lost them leaving him wondering what was happening.
Later that night Rory pondered on the weirdness that had envaded his life. Things where good he loved being a nurse and making people better when he was working he felt a peace and belonging he had never had before.
Things with Amy Had changed too. They had been going out for six months now and he couldn't be happier. He'd been holding his breath waiting for the other shoe to drop.
The sound of voices calling out brought him back to reality, a chill ran down his spin when he realized it was coming from the coma patients ward.
His first thought was that someone had woke up but after he checked they all where all still unconscious!
He was beginning to think he had imaged the whole thing when he heard something that made his blood run cold .
"Doctor, doctor, doctor" they all moaned together.
And somehow he knew they weren't asking for a medical man .they stopped as suddenly as they had started leaving him to wonder what was to come!
The sky was getting dark reflecting Rory's mood he had told his boss about the night before and about the comma patients walking around and had been suspended stupid ape's!
Across the street from him stood a man with a dog, the man had been in a coma for 8 mouths. Rory took his cell phone out and started to take pictures of the man he'd show them he was not mad!
Suddenly a man grabs his mobile and starts going through the photos of the coma paincets.
" the sun is going out and you're photographing a man and dog. Why?
Rory did a double take at the lunatic who currently had a farm grip on his blue scrubs, he was wearing the remnants of a blue pin stripe suit had a mop of brown hair that flopt with his jerky movements and his chin jutted out a little giving him a comical appreciate, except for his eyes they told a different story . they were ancient burning with kindness and deep loss.
With a start he realized he was staring in the eyes of his worst enemy and best friend the doctor!
"Oh my god it's him" he accidentally said out loud Amy gave him a dirty look telling him to answer the question.
"But it's him though the raggady doctor " he steamers snapping back into character the doctor would want to change him back and he didn't want to go!
"Yeah he came back" Amy sighs looking imbarssed.
The doctor is losing patients with him " man and dog why? Tell me now!"the doctor in clearly panicking Rory bits his lip to keep from smirking at the doctors antics.
"Sorry because he can't be there because he's"
"In a hospital, in a coma" both time Lords say at once the doctor starts to babble about multiforms and how they needed a psychic link to a dormant human mind thumping Rory on the four head to enthuse his point.
Then coma man starts barking at them,the doctor try's to atrack the attention of the atraxi prison ship with his sonic screwdriver. Causing street lamps to explode car alarms to go off and even a fire truck to take off by it self sending fire men running after it. For a boy scout the doctor could cause a lot of damage.
"Tick tock goes the clock ,till the day you Mary me".
Amy hadn't been answering her phone all night maybe she had went out with Mels for one last fling. Rory left a message gushing about how much he loved her.
After prisoner zero had been captured by the atraxi the doctor had disappeared Amy though he wouldn't come back but Rory knew the doctor would pop up again he just didn't think it would be literally.
But pop up he did right out of the cake at his stag party. The doctor looked relieved when he saw Rory. Apparently he had jumped out of several wrong cakes Rory shook his head in denial, this couldn't be happening.
The doctor clapped his hands together and Rory prepared for what was sure to be embarrassing and he was right.
"Roy we need to talk about your franca ,she tried to kiss me, but you're a lucky man though she's a great kisser!"
If that's hadn't need room full of witnesses he probably would of strangled the time lord with his bare hands.
The doctor seems to notice his mistake" funny how you can say something in your head and it sounds fine" this current incarnation obviously had no social skills at all.
The doctor drags a sullen Rory back to the Tardis to patch things up between the two humans. An adventure in time should fix everything!
He was puzzled that Rory hadn't mentioned it was bigger on the inside yet.
" it's a lot to take in isn't is? Tiny box,huge room,what's that about? Let me explain"
"It's another dimension " Rory glares at him reproachfully.
"What" the doctor didn't expect that.
Rory mumbled something about reading up on scientific theories and surprisingly he doesn't question it.
Rory wasn't happy with Amy being in the fish vampires Lear not that he was worried about her she could take care of her self.
It seems that everyone who was around the doctor felt the need to impress him even the master tried to and had failed miserably. All Rory wanted was his friend to respect the doctor knew he was the master he might pity him but would Never see him as anything other than the pathetic psychopath he used to be.
He finely couldn't take it any more and shouted at him.
"This is what makes you dangerous you make people take risk because they want to impress you so they don't disappoint you, you have no idea how dangerous you make people to them selves when you're around"
He instantly regerted saying anything when he saw the hurt look in his old friends eyes he must have hit a nerve. It used to be fun to try to upset the doctor but he no longer found any enjoyment in hurting him.
Amy and the doctor were laughing and talking happily, they had defeated the fish aliens and saved Venice and where on the way back to the tardis, amy loved traveling in time with the doctor if Rory forced her to stay with him she would grow to hate him and that was one thing he could not bare.
"Its fine just drop me off where you found me I'll say that you..." Amy cut him off taking his hand in both of her small ones.
"Stay I want you to stay" Amy said giving him a flirty smile
The doctor gave them a lopsided grin " fine with me"
Rory happily excepted the invitation for the first time he felt happy.
"Tick tock goes the clock ,and all the years they fly"
The doctor refused to call Rory by his name instead he was called Mr pond, which should have made Rory mad but staying mad at him was impossible.
He had forgotten how much fun they had when they where kids, Rory worried he would wake to find this was all a dream.
If his former self could see him now he would be horrified, traveling the stars with his greatest enemy and a human helping people, and he couldn't be happier.
"Tick tick goes the clock,and all too soon you and I must die"
There's a crack its like the one in Amy's wall the doctor is to busy with it to notice the dying suleine who is aiming a gun at his back!
But Rory does .he doesn't think about what he's doing stepping into the line of fire he shoves his friend out of harms way it's only then he realizes he'll be shot instead of the doctor as pain courses through his entire body.
The doctor and Amy rush to his side. The doctor scans him with his sonic screwdriver his face is the picture of regret and loss and Rory knows there is nothing can be done to help him.
Amy Cry's as he tells her how beautiful she is he remembers dying on the valent just after the doctor had forgiven him and he realized he needed to say it to him before he died.
"I'm sorry" he gasped as his heartbeat stopped completely and everything faded away,
Amy and Rory danced slowly it was their wedding night Rory was the luckiest man alive to have a wife like Amy, and to be alive too it should have been impossible he not only died but was erased but she had brought him back.
The clocks patience won in the end as it ticked off the remaining years and days of The human till the day the silence took him and he was forced to open it and the Master was reborn!
He wanted to stay here forever and never wake up stay in her arms where everything was perfect he loved being human and wished he could go back.
A metallic buzzing sound awoke the master from his sleep with a start ,the owner of the unpleasant sound was 5 inch's from his face ,a tin dog .
