You never know how much you miss the Internet until you don't have access to it. The same goes with darkness in your bedroom during night and warm water :)

Chapter 6

"That was brilliant," Theresa laughed when they stumbled back into the TARDIS.

"Yes, imagine he comes back into his office and sees an Ood sitting there," the Doctor answered and grabbed the console for not falling to the ground for laughing so much. Suddenly, he pulled back his hands and looked at them strangely.

"What's up? Electroshock, or what?" Theresa asked surprised.

"No, it's something...bigger," exactly speaking his last word, he bent forwards as if he had immense pain. "Oh dear," he muttered and stumbled backwards but sank to the ground.

"What's happening?" Theresa asked and kneed down beside him.

"Time's being rewritten. Someone is entering my timeline and now I can remember whatever he's doing," the Doctor said and closed his eyes. "But some things were fixed or even rewritten already," he muttered.

"But time's in a constant flux. You always enter timelines that change certain people's life. Has never of this actually happened to you?"

"Not that I knew of," The Doctor said and breathed heavily. Suddenly, he sat straight up again. "Everything's fine. I can completely remember what has happened."

"And?" Theresa asked and followed him to the main control in the middle.

The Doctor looked at her with his most serious glance. "I've told you about the other companions...?"

"Yes, some died, some were left behind..."

"Rory! What is happening?" Amy shouted and tried to reach her boyfriend.

"Don't! Don't do that," The Doctor warned her and pulled her back.

"What is happening to him?"

"He's being erased from history. As if he's never happened. Okay, listen to me, Amy. You need to remember. Try to keep him in mind, okay?"

Amy nodded and the Doctor placed his hands on her cheek. Rory now completely vanished and the bright, white light disappeared in the rift again.

"Do you remember?" the Doctor asked and looked deeply into the eyes of his companion.

"Remember what?" Amy asked surprised and stepped back. "Who're you?" she asked at someone behind the Doctor.

He turned around and also looked at the woman standing there. "Why are you here?" he asked her, she was young, had short, dark brown hair, dark skin and black eyes. She also looked confused. "I don't know. I was suddenly...here."

"And who are you?" the Doctor asked and walked around her.

"I...I'm someone who shouldn't actually exist. I think I died...but now I'm here," she said and also looked around.

"But if you're dead..." Amy started.

"Not actually dead...I mean...it's complicated. But the person I am here now, she was killed and I was made someone else," she said, obviously that she had no clue either.

"Doctor, who is she?" Amy wanted to know when the Doctor 'scanned' her with his screwdriver.

"Doctor?" the unknown woman asked and turned to him.

"Yes, why, I'm the Doctor?"

"You have changed so much," she whispered but suddenly she became glowing in a yellow-orange tone. "What's happening?" she muttered.

"You're probably being transported through space and time," the Doctor said after another look at his screwdriver. "Who are you?" he asked again, but she already seemed exploding and then she was gone all of sudden.

"Okay, Doctor. Who the hell was that?" Amy asked when she was already walking back to the TARDIS.

"I have no idea. But I intend to find out...Don't you miss anybody, Amy?"

"No, why?"

The Doctor sighed and followed her into the TARDIS. Amy didn't remember Rory anymore and he couldn't think of where he had seen this woman before. But she knew him...she knew another face of him, but how? And why had she appeared? The transportation had looked like really advanced technology, but she hadn't controlled it.

"Was Rory rescued in the end? I mean, in the original time line?" Theresa asked with a sad voice.

The Doctor nodded. "When I flew the Pandorica into the TARDIS, the universe could be rewritten as the light of the Pandorica was spread to every point in space and time," he explained.

"It sounds so easy when you say that...what happened to Amy and Rory at the end?"

"They both died," he said and looked at the screen of the controls. "I promised you one trip, that was it. I'm bringing you home to exactly the point where we left."

While he instructed the TARDIS, she only looked at him. "We're there," the Doctor said and together they walked to the door.

"So you're just dropping me off here and forget me. You'll search another companion and travel with her, am I right?" she asked.

"Yes, exactly," he answered, gave her a kiss on both cheeks and then said, "bye-bye."

Theresa smiled shortly, but then turned around and left the TARDIS. Of course, she was disappointed. She had seen aliens, a different planet, a time that earth still awaited and technology nobody could ever dream of. And now, he was making her leave and continue her boring life again.

She heard the typical noise of the vanishing police box and walked upstairs to her flat. "Where were you?" her girlfriend Katie asked when she opened the door.

"Rend had called me last night because FBI and UNIT were searching the warehouse."

"I know. And then you suddenly disappeared."

"Yes...I thought there were too many cops running around. Have they found anything?" Theresa asked and walked over to the refrigerator to look for some food.

"UNIT has sent all FBI cops away and then they transported something away. FBI is pissed, as always and are going to search the warehouse on their own this week. Rend called me, he's gathering everybody to transport the goods away. I haven't been working for him for quite a while, is there more than drugs and the usual stuff?" she asked still a bit angry that her girlfriend hadn't even called.

"He's currently in arms traffic. I've proposed him some of my relations to Boston."

"I didn't know you had relations to Boston," Katie said and gently pressed Theresa at the counter.

"One of my old team from MI5," Theresa smiled, kissed her and then pushed her away.

"Isn't it always someone from them?"

"Don't be jealous, you were there too."

"But before you," Katie reminded her.

"Your problem. I'd better visit Rend."

"You don't wanna help him smuggle drugs to the other side of the town?"

"Oh come on..."

"Great, be back for lunch," Katie said and closed the door behind Theresa.

This last conversation may sound a bit confusing but it's again a crossover-reference. Theresa's and Katie's characters are both supposed to have been part of CHERUB, from the book series CHERUB, a department of MI5 that uses children as undercover agents. It also explains how they became agents/ double agents later.
