While hugging Amy, the Doctor glanced over her shoulder and looked at the disfigured body. Her chest was ripped open, you could see the ribs. It was obvious that the killer was disturbed by them. He didn't even want to think about what had happened to that poor girl, at least he thought it was a girl since the body had long blond hair. The rest of the body was covered in so much blood it wasn't recognizable.
The Doctor then turned his attention to the Scot who had stopped sobbing against his chest. He pulled away far enough to look her in the eyes. They were red from crying and there were heavy bags beneath them.
"You look terrible" he said amused.
"Why thank you Doctor for being so honest." Amy snapped. While looking him in the eye, she saw that he was concerned, mad and a mixture of many other emotions. She wasn't able to stay mad at him for long and she didn't like that.
They stared at each other for a while, neither of them wanting to break the contact. However they were drawn back into reality when they heard screams at the entrance to the park.
"We have to go, it seems someone else heard her scream and is coming to look for her." The Doctor said.
Amy simply narrowed her eyes and said: "Thank you Mister Obvious, for clearing that up".
The Doctor couldn't help but chuckle at that. Before they ran away, he got his sonic screwdriver and held it over the dead girl's body, gathering all the necessary information.
While the Doctor was busy with his sonic screwdriver and the girl, Amy looked in the opposite direction. At one point however, she decided to turn around and look at the body. That was when she realized the body had a tattoo on the side of her neck.
"Doctor, what is that tattoo?" she asked him and when he simply looked at her, confused, she pointed "there, on the side of her neck"
The Doctor looked at the neck and saw a symbol he couldn't quite identify. It looked like a cross, just upside-down. The devil's sign in this world's humans view. He reached into his jacket to once again take his infamous sonic screwdriver to copy the tattoo.
"Doctor, we need to go, they are very close now". Amy said in a low voice.
The Doctor looked at her, at the body and back at her, nodded, took her hand and ran. When they exited the park, they continued to run into the city. It was very dark and they continued running in the direction of the TARDIS.
While they were running, Amy couldn't stop thinking about the body, the scream and the people who might be after them. When they ran in the city, she decided it was enough running and hid in a dark alley whilst pulling the Doctor with her.
"What are you doing?" The Doctor looked confused
"I cannot run anymore. I need a two-minute break. Please" Amy looked at the Doctor and could see that he didn't want to disagree with his companion. She saw sorrow and acceptance.
"Okay. ONLY two minutes" The Doctor emphasized 'only'. He didn't want to push her too hard even though they'd probably die if they were found. Well she'd die, he'd just regenerate and he promised Rory to take care of her. He was watching the street whilst listening to Amy's breath slow down. After some time which he assumed were two minutes, he checked if the streets were clear and they started running again.
They ran towards the TARDIS and when they finally reached it, the Doctor unlocked it and pushed Amy inside. Before he went inside he looked around. He had the feeling someone was watching them carefully but since he didn't see anyone, he went inside and locked the door to the TARDIS.
When the Doctor was inside he looked over to Amy. She was sitting in one of the chairs around the console, heaving for breath. He had to chuckle when he heard her mutter something like "I need to work out more".
He then turned his attention towards the sonic screwdriver he had pulled out of the pocket of his jacket and put it in the console. The TARDIS started reading the information the Doctor had scanned. It was a young woman, only mid-twenties, blond hair, tall, skinny. Now why did she remind the Doctor of someone he once knew?
Then there was a knock on the door. Both Amy and the Doctor looked up.
"You open it please" the Doctor asked Amy, nodding towards the door
"Sure thing." Amy answered. She got up and went to the door. When she opened it, she saw a young woman, probably mid-twenties and a young man, probably closer to thirty. She had blond hair, was tall and skinny while he was about the same height as her, skinny and had dark hair
"Hello. Who are you?" Amy said with her recognisable Scottish accent.
"Hi. Is the Doctor there?" the woman asked.
When the Doctor heard that voice, he immediately felt relieved, happy and nervous at the same time.
"How do you know about the Doctor?" Amy said. The woman just looked at her, so Amy stepped aside to let them inside.
The Doctor pretended to be occupied with his sonic screwdriver. He did not want to talk to her right now, especially not if she was in company with someone he knew.
The young woman took in the so familiar scent of the spaceship she had not seen for so long. She looked at her husband who nodded and then went to the Doctor.
She leaned towards the console, looking at the Doctor. When she saw what he was occupied with, she took it.
"Now why are you always so occupied with this thing? I know it has saved our lives many times, but still.." she looked at it and then looked up, in the eyes of a person she knew but then again didn't know.
The Doctor suddenly felt warmer when the door closed again. His hearts started to jump when he heard footsteps coming closer to him. Then he felt her next to him and suddenly the sonic screwdriver he had been so busy with was gone.
He looked at her hold it. When he couldn't bear the silence anymore, he decided to break it, but she was faster.
"Yes, it has saved our lives a million times which is probably a reason why I cherish it so much. Also it is one of the last remaining things from before the Time War. It also reminds me of a lot of other things." He looked at her. Then he realized something.
"What are you doing here Rose?" he finally asked.
