Someone will be joining us two chapters from now from the Doctor Who world! A guest that, I think, and hope, everyone loves! Wanna guess who it is? Let me know in the reviews!

Enjoy :)


Previously:

"I like you, Temperance Brennan. I'm a Time Lord. And my name," He straightened a little, and then broke out into another smile.

"Is the Doctor."


"Doctor who?" Booth asked. "Doctor" didn't even sound like a real name. He still wasn't able to wrap his head around it, the fact that he was an alien. It sounded like something out of a science fiction book or like one of Hodgins' conspiracy theories.

And he didn't like this "Doctor". Not one bit. Barging into the lab like that, with no explanations. He'd have to check for him and for Rose in the Scotland Yard database later.

"Just the Doctor." The Doctor replied nonchalantly, as if people asked him this all the time.

"Well, we are gonna need some proof that you really are a-what did you call yourself? Time Lord? - And not some secret agent from Scotland Yard. What kind of name is Doctor, anyway?" Booth asked.

"Do you want to see my ship?" The Doctor asked, ignoring Booth's latter question.

"Hell yeah!" Hodgins exclaimed and stepped towards the TARDIS, but after one stern glance from Brennan, he stopped in his tracks.

"I mean. Uh. If, uh, it's okay with you, Dr. B."

Brennan nodded. She moved her gaze towards the Doctor, and broke out into a grin. "I think we'll all be delighted to see your spaceship." She said excitedly, and then giggled and clapped her hands, like a child receiving a new toy. As a scientist, the idea of seeing an actual spaceship was thrilling. But there was one problem it seemed the Doctor hadn't addressed.

"But Doctor, how are we all going to fit in there? It's just a police box." She said. The Doctor and Rose smiled at each-other knowingly.

"Well, I believe you'll find there will be plenty of room. Follow me!" He turned, opened the TARDIS door, and skipped inside. Rose followed and disappeared after him. Brennan and Hodgins exchanged looks, and then quickly walked over to the TARDIS. They were about to enter when Booth's hand caught Brennan's arm.

"This is not a good idea. I don't trust him, Bones." Brennan shook his arm away.

"It's fine, Booth. What could possibly happen?"

"Well I'm staying here. No way I'm getting into a stupid police box with that mad-man."

"Fine!" Brennan spit back. She felt her anger slowly rising. How could he be so ignorant? Miss out on such an opportunity? What could he possibly have to lose?

"Fine!" Booth turned his back to her and folded his arms. Brennan threw the door open and stepped inside.

"Your loss, man." Hodgins said. Booth ignored him, so he shrugged and followed Brennan, expecting to find a small, cramped space with two Brits and his boss shmushed together. What he found instead left him wide-eyed and gaping. He stepped back outside. Circled the box a few times. Knocked on each side. Checked for trap doors or mirrors. It had the regular dimensions of an ordinary police box, and yet…


"It's bigger on the inside!" Dr. Hodgins exclaimed as he entered the TARDIS for the second time. He stood next to Dr. Brennan, who stared around in wonder. The TARDIS was dark and a bit gloomy since the engines were on minimum power, but still looked impressive to anyone who did not expect it. The Doctor stood next to the console, holding Rose's hand and smiling down at her. She smiled back and leaned her head on his shoulder, and together they watched their new acquaintances walk in and out of the TARDIS door, climb up and down the steps, bounce on the yellow jump-seat next to the railing. When Hodgins was about to press on the big red button, because that's what big red buttons are for, impulsive pressing, the Doctor cried, "No! Don't press the big red button!" Dr. Hodgins stepped back quickly, and turned to him curiously. "What does it do?" He asked.

"No idea."

"Can we go somewhere?" Brennan asked, and sat down on the jump-seat. She gathered her hair up in a messy bun.

"The TARDIS has to rest her engines and repower, but tomor-huh, we actually have a tomorrow. That's new- tomorrow I can take you anywhere and anywhen you want!"

"Anywhen? That's grammatically incorrect." Brennan said. Rose raised her eyebrow.

"She's always like that." Hodgins explained.

"Always like what?"

"Nothing, Dr. B."

"I probably should have mentioned that. This is also a time-machine." The Doctor said, and stuck his hands in his trouser-pockets.

"Time travel is impossible." Brennan stated simply.

"That's what I said." Rose said and smiled at the Doctor. For the millionth time he thanked Rassilion that he had Rose Tyler by his side. He squeezed her hand.

"It is not possible for photons or particles of any kind to travel past the speed of light. Also, the term "time" refers to motion. It's impossible to move an object back to its former location unless it is physically transferred there. Since the past is not saved somewhere -it is recorded, but not saved, and it does not exist anywhere once it's already happened and gone- it is not possible to return to it. And the idea of traveling forward in time is ludicrous. How can you be somewhere that hasn't happened yet?"

Rose whistled. That was impressive, compared even to the Doctor. It even made some sort of sense. The Doctor sighed.

"Temperance Brennan, you'll be a great partner in conversations. It's been a while since I've met someone that is at least close to my level of intelligence. However, you are wrong. The most common mistake made by humans is the assumption that time is a line. It's not. It's more like this- and I've explained this before. Oh Rassilion, the angels were a headache- anyway, where was I? Right. Time is more like this great big ball of wibbley wobbley timey wimey stuff. You can travel through the time vortex to another time. I won't get into that because you won't understand the half of it."

It was Hodgins' turn to be impressed. He looked at Rose and she sighed.

"Tell me about it." She said.

"Tell you about what?" The Doctor asked.

"Nothing." Rose and Hodgins said simultaneously.

"How about a grand tour, eh?" Rose offered. After some protesting from the Doctor ("But the TARDIS doesn't like new people!"), and a hard elbow-in-the-ribs from Rose ("BEHAVE," She murmured through clenched teeth), the Doctor muttered something to Brennan and Hodgins about following him, and they exited the console room through one of the side-doors, the Doctor dragging his legs and Rose pushing him along after the excited visitors.


Booth stood outside of the so-called "spaceship", arms crossed, sulking. Bones could be so… infuriating sometimes. So stubborn. She never listened to his advice. This was, he had to admit, part of why he loved her. But sometimes it could really get on his nerves. Now he just needed some time to cool off and soon he would join them inside.

Just a few more minutes.

Booth suddenly remembered that his gun was somewhere on the floor. He spotted it in the near corner of the platform, almost over the edge. He walked over to it, leaned down, picked it up. He straightened up again and decided he had waited long enough and then he could go into the TARDIS now. He was about to open the door when he heard a noise behind him. Someone whispering.

He turned around.

What he saw before him made him scream.


A/N: Sorry for that cliffhanger there, but I gotta keep you on your feet XD who/what do you think it is?

Also, I know the timey wimey stuff is not accurate, but I don't understand any of it one bit. If anyone here has a better idea about it all than I'd be happy to hear from you.

Next chapter Brennan and Rose will have some girl-talk!
