Elevator

„Although we´re not in Italy like I was planning, it´s still nice, or not?", the Doctor asked. Donna looked at him with anger in her eyes: "Nice?! We are dripping wet, muddy and I think I have a fish in my trousers! What is nice about this?!" Two hours earlier both of them have needed to jump in a pond to hide from some nasty large mosquito. Now they where not only dripping but also, on the search of the TARDIS. The Doctor was cheery as ever, but Donna was not really happy that here favourite sweatshirt was now ruined. Not to mention the fish...

After some time of wandering around Donna pointed on a large building, which was now to see on the horizon:" Oi, Doctor! This looks like a place where we can dry off. And you owe me at least a new Sweatshirt, after you have lost the TARDIS." "I haven´t lost here!" Donna putted her hands at here hips: "And what do you call this?" "Uhm...To go to this place is a brilliant idea!", and off he was. Donna rolled here eyes and followed him quickly.

The large building turned out to be an hotel. And a really big to boot. Ten floors high and with glass-elevators at the outside. "Can I help you?", asked the receptionist, a old man with a beard to his knees, after the Doctor and Donna went trough the red front doors. While Donna gazed at the palatial entrance hall, the Doctor said: "Yes, we, me and my friend there, need a room." The man asked dryly:"Do you have a reservation?" The Doctor pulled immediately his psychic paper out and held it with a grin in front of the man.

The man´s eyes widened:"Oh...I´m so sorry...of course we have a room." He opened a drawer in his desk and pulled a green card out. "Your room is in the seventh floor, number 774...I´m apologizing again, I haven´t recognised you." The Doctor thanked the man and went with Donna to one of the outside-elevators. "He was completely jazzed, who the heck he thought you where?!", Donna asked with a smirk after the elevator started moving

The Doctor shrugged his shoulders:" No idea! But look the the view! You see this blue field there, its the one of only five places on the whole planet where this blue flower grows." Donna looked in the direction the Doctor pointed:"What its called?" "Centaurea cyanus" „Never heard of it." "I think you have,it´s better known under the name Cornflower."

On the same moment as Donna wanted to respond something, a jolt went trough the elevator and it stopped. "Doctor?!", Donna called in alarm. "What´s going on?" The Doctor pulled his sonic screwdriver out and after a quick lock at it he answered:" The rope from the elevator is damaged. We need to get out here! Quickly!"

Donna looked down at the ground. Now it looked a lot more dangerous then before. "And how we should do it? We are about ten meters high and if you can fly with your Martian-abilities this doesn't mean I can too." The Doctor looked at here:"I´m not from mart and I can´t fly. But if we manage to open the doors we can climb to the floor above use."

After some pulling here and some sonicing here the door was wide enough open and right above them was the floor to see. "Donna, climb up there! I don´t know how long the rope will hold!" And before Donna even could protest, he already was helping her up. "Spaceman, stop pushing me, my shirtsleeve has gotten caught at the door!" But with an pull she was free and lying on the soft, orange carpet. After some seconds she jumped again to the elevator, which was making groaning noises and jolting slightly.

"Grab my hand!", Donna yelled, but in the same moment a loud bang was to hear. The elevator tilted away from the building and the Doctor was tossed against the glass. A sickening moment the glass was crunching beneath him, in the next it yielded under him and he fell.

_:_:_:_

Dona watched in utter horror as the Doctor smacked against one of the leaning windows, two floors beneath her, braked trough it and landed in a bunch of broken bits of glass on the orange carpet. "Doctor!", she screamed and ran as fast as she could to the stairs and down to her friend.

An group of people was already standing around him, murmuring and poking him with fingers. Donna pushed trough the people without attention and knelt beside the unconscious form of the Doctor. His head was circled with a pool of blood, like an halo,

She shook him gently. He didn't responded. "Is he dead?", a woman in a long black dress asked and poked the Doctor cautiously with her foot. Donna looked at her with a sight that could kill. "Oi! You! Stop doing that! He is my friend! And why is nobody calling an ambulance!? He is injured!" The woman toke a step back, a little man with baldness starts to tap around on something that looked like a normal mobile phone. "Come on Doctor, please don´t die on me", Donna whispered to her friend.

The first thing the Doctor noticed as he woke up was that he was lying on something fluffy and clean The second thing was that a sharp pain which felt like somebody has cracked his skull open and then glued the two pieces again together. And the third thing was that the bride light, which was slipping trough his eyelids wasn´t helping at this point.

He moaned and cracked his eyes open. And the first thing he saw was the overjoyed smile of a red haired women. "Oh Doctor, I thought you where dead! If I wasn´t sure that it would knock you out again, I would slap you!" He managed a small smile:"Maybe we delay this on later. How long was I out?" "About a day, the sun is rising again." The Doctor locked at here in shock:"What, a whole day?!" He tried to sit up but a bright light flashed in front off his eyes and with a small yelp off pain he slid back. Donna shock here head:"No, mister. You stay in bed." "But we still need to find the TARDIS." "We can find her after you can stand up without falling back again Now sleep." "You know that you are brilliant, Donna Noble.", he muttered and slipped into dreamland.
