So that is the correct spelling? I thought it was an i, not an o. Ah well. Sheppard will mention the Doctor's humming in the next chapter. Anyways, READ AND REVIEW! Your opinions are appreciated. Suggestions would be nice.
Chapter 3
"Well, then, EXPLAIN!" Ronon roared, shaking his gun in the Doctor's face.
"Well, then, get that thing out of my face," the Doctor said coolly.
Obviously, this man was stupid, or maybe he didn't think Ronon would actually shoot him, John thought.
Meanwhile, the Doctor was chattering about his blue box. "This here's my ship. She's a TARDIS, which stands for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space. She's in the form of a police box because the chameleon circuit got stuck when I was in London in the 1960s and she got stuck in the form of a police box. She's the last--"
"That's a ship?" Ronon interjected, gesturing at the TARDIS with his gun. John was sort of glad he'd interrupted the Doctor. My, but he could babble. Probably could beat Rodney in a babble contest, thumbs down.
"She's a ship. She's a very special ship, my TARDIS." Here the Doctor paused and lovingly caressed the TARDIS door.
John's arm was begin to ache. Rodney was leaning very heavily on his arm. "If you're coming with us, then get ready to walk through the gate as soon as I dial the gate," John told the Doctor before he could say anything else about his ship.
The Doctor stared at him, his hand still on the TARDIS. "What about the TARDIS?" he asked, his voice hoarse.
"Well, why don't you fly her through the gate?" John replied tersely as he tried to haul Rodney over to the DHD. John's back was to the Doctor, but he could feel his inquisitive gaze on his back. John dialed the gate, expecting to hear the rush that signified the Stargate opening.
It never came.
"What the hell?" John dialed again. Still no response.
"All right, guess we'll have to use the TARDIS," the Doctor announced cheerfully and turned back to his blue box.
"There's five of us." Ronon sounded exasperated, like he was trying to explain something to an idiot.
The Doctor glanced at him. "So?"
"That thing is small. A maximum of two could fit in there, although they would be very squished," Teyla replied in an emotionless tone.
The Doctor grinned and shook his head, as if he were talking to four witless children. "Well, then, why don't you and me go in?" He extricted a small key from one of his pockets and unlocked the TARDIS door. He grabbed Teyla's arm and pushed her in front of him. "Ladies first."
The Doctor opened the door. Teyla stepped in. Rodney, John, and Ronon all heard her gasp of wonder and amazement.
