So Guys There will probably only be 2 more chapters after this. Just a warning there are some feels in this one... Disclaimer: I do not own any Doctor Who characters.

Kairi and I ran to the console room as the TARDIS continued to jerk back and forth.

"Doctor what's going on?" Kairi screamed over the noise.

"I don't know but we need to hurry up." She and I ran faster and made it to the console room.

"The TARDIS is attempting to land herself." I explain as I pull down the nearest lever.

"Why would she do that?" Kairi asked going to the other side of the console.

"Don't touch anything." I say trying to work my way around the console.

"Too late." She says and the TARDIS stops jerking and making noises.

"How do you know how to fly my TARDIS?" I ask her pulling on my ear. She shouldn't be able to do that.

"Doctor I used to have a TARDIS of my own you know. It isn't that different." She winks at me and walks to the doors.

"What are you doing?" I ask her.

"I'm going to see where we are." She opens the doors and steps outside.

"Doctor what was that?" Donna asked entering the room with Jack.

"Well you two are a bit late." I go to the doorway to see what's outside.

"What happened Doc?" Jack asked and followed me to the doorway.

"The TARDIS tried to land herself and she couldn't so Kairi and I had to stabilize her." I walk outside and Jack and Donna are behind me.

"You two stay here. Don't move a muscle." I continue walking forward and of course so do my companions. "Why do you two never listen to me?" I ask and they don't answer me only push past me to look around.

"Doctor I think I've found something." I hear Kairi's voice come from behind a layer of trees.

"Come on you two if you're not going to stay in the TARDIS at least stay with me." I walk towards the trees.

"You really need to learn to say please Timeboy." Donna said as she walked next to me.

"Sorry but you two never listen to me."

"That's because you never say please."

I roll my eyes and continue my trek through the trees. "Where are you?" I call out to Kairi.

"Over here Doctor."

I push through some undergrowth and end up in a valley. I see Kairi in the center where there appears to be some jell like substance. "What is that?" I ask her stepping closer and crouching down next to her.

"I don't know really. It may be from some creature or something. It doesn't seem to have an effect on the ground." She sticks her finger in it and looks at it closer. "Doesn't seem to affect me either." She licks it. "Doesn't taste bad. What is this stuff?" She looks at me as if waiting for an answer.

"What?"

"Use your sonic and scan it." She waves her hand towards my pocket.

"Oh yes right." I pull out my sonic and scan the jelly lying on the ground. "You probably shouldn't have licked that."

"Why not?"

"Weeeell it is sort of poison." I pull on my ear again and wait for her response.

"Oh well. My body will process it." She stands up and looks around. "Hey Donna and Jack joined the party. Where were you two at we thought we'd never find you."

"That was the point." Jack said winking at her.

"I told you Jack was up to something Doctor." She looked at me and smiled.

"Of course he was when isn't Jack up to something?"

"Where are we?" Donna asked looking at her surroundings.

"Earth actually. I think somewhere in England."

"So why is there some type of alien poison?" Donna crouched down and reached towards the purple substance.

"Don't touch that!" Kairi and I yell in unison. But it was too late. Donna had her finger in the jelly.

"What it's just some alien goop?" Donna finished the sentence and with a flutter of her eyes she was passed out on the ground.

"Donna no! Doctor we have to get her back to the TARDIS and wash off her hand. We have to get that poison out of her system!" Kairi yells and scoops up Donna running back to the TARDIS. I follow opening the door for her so she can carry Donna inside.

"Take her to the med bay. The TARDIS will help out." The words are barely a whisper. I know Donna won't be alright. That "alien goop" was highly poisonous to humans. I doubt she'll make it through the day.

\(~0~)/

"Donna I am so sorry." I whisper over and over as I wash her hands. She's lying on the bed in the med bay. I have her hooked up to various machines so the TARDIS can show me her vitals. "Oh Donna, please forgive me I should have never let you touch that stuff. I know how stubborn and sassy you are. I should have known you were going to touch it. Why didn't I have you stay here? Not like you would have listened to me." Tears begin to rush down my cheeks as I hold her hand talking to her. I know how deadly this poison is. The Doctor doesn't think I know but I do. I know a lot about that access slime. Why did she have to touch it?

"Are you alright?" Jack asks standing in the doorway.

"No. I shouldn't have let her touch it."

"It wasn't your fault. How could you have stopped her?"

"I should have made you two stay here it's too dangerous out there."

"Kairi you can't always protect us."

"Yes I can that is why I'm here to protect. I don't know if you've forgotten but I'm called "The Protector" I protect and I have failed."

"That is not true."

"It is completely true. Just go find the Doctor I need his help."

"Alright. But you are still wrong." He exits the room and I'm alone again with Donna. I can see the color in her cheeks fade. She's dying.

"What's going on?" The Doctor asked entering the room and coming around beside me. "What will help her Doctor? She's dying. She can't die. She mustn't die." I stroke Donna's cheek and her skin is growing colder.

"Kairi there is nothing we can do. There is no way to cure her. The poison is too strong. I'm sorry. I am so so sorry."

I cry more and kiss her hand. Her eyes open and she looks at me. "Hello love." Her words are weak and she can barely move.

"I'm sorry Donna. Please forgive me."

"It really wasn't your fault."

"But I should have stopped you. As soon as you kneeled down I should have warned you." The tears began to fall once more and I couldn't look at her.

"Kairi. Look at me." She reached out to stroke my face but she was too weak and her hand lay on my shoulder.

"Donna I can't just sit here and watch you die." I pick up her hand and place it on my cheek knowing that's where it was supposed to be. She stroked my cheek with her thumb.

"I know. I'm sorry." She closed her eyes once more and I placed her hand on her stomach. I kissed her forehead.

"I love you Donna Noble." She opened her eyes and gave me a weak smile.

"I love you as well. Take care of Spaceman he needs you." With another weak smile to the man in the doorway she closes her eyes. "Goodbye Timeboy."
