Partners in crime Part 2

Rose had no idea how long both her and the Doctor had been running. Her arms were swinging forcefully at her sides as she moved her legs to propel her body forward towards the Doctor who was several strides in front of her, his eyebrows in a frown with his coat bellowing behind him while he was holding up the device in front of him. But he suddenly ran across the road for him to then move back in the direction he came from. He looked at the device as he skidded to a stop. His frown deepening as he lifted the small piece of machinery to his eye level, he hit the device so it beeped at him again, blew on it as he listened to the bleeping. Rose had finally made her way to his side, breathing heavily as she looked up at her husband her chest heaving as the cold night air was burning her lungs as she tried to bring in the necessary oxygen she needed. But before she could rest the Doctor was calling behind him again

"Come on!" He chimed happily before running to the road, following the device. Rose simply rolled her eyes before bolting after him, her fringe bouncing against her head.

They were running down street after street. The Doctor was holding out his hands as he adjusted certain dials on the device. But his jaw was guttering out while he concentrated, he moved the device to the left before spinning around a corner and then down an alley way once he heard the small object dinging at him. But just as the Doctor ran out into the road he wasn't looking where he was going and Rose knew what would happen before she could process the information her senses were retrieving for her. A large black SUV was driving quickly down the road heading straight for the Doctor who was looking at the device. Rose rolled her eyes again before sprinting towards her husband.

"Doctor!" She yelled before he spun around towards her, his mouth hanging open in a frown and then spinning around towards the SUV. His eyes widened as the car sped towards him but he suddenly felt some small, soft arms falling around his waist and pulled him out of the way, both of them landing roughly on the concrete floor. Both of them grunting when they landed. The Doctor suddenly shifted so his side was lying on the road, one of his hands present on the pavement while he looked over at his wife whose back and head was on the pavement her hair falling from her bun and sprawled out beside her. His eyebrows rose as he looked at her

"You ok?" He asked her concerned his hand pressed to her shoulder

"I'm fine. I just wish you would look where your going" Rose smiled, her lips moving up slightly as she tried to sit up, her hand moving to the back of her head rubbing it slightly. "It's like I'm mothering you all the time" She complained, but her face showing him her true feelings. The Doctor simply beamed at her, his face turning into a magnificent smile as he stood up, holding out his hands.

"Up you get Sweetheart" He said to her happily. She placed both of her hands into his and let herself be lifted off the ground. She smiled at the Doctor before he wrapped his arms around her shoulders, hers going around his waist as they walked back to the TARDIS. But as Rose placed her head to her husband shoulders she recognised the young ginger woman in the car. She frowned and looked at the car, confusion evident in her features. The Doctor noticing

"You sure you're alright?" The Doctor said moving his torso slightly to talk to her. She just nodded before settling back into his embrace

"Yeah... it's nothing" Rose muttered before slipping into comfortable silence.

Donna placed her front door key into her front door once she got home. She slowly walked into the room saddened by what she had seen. There had been nothing left of Stacy Campbell and the saddest part of it was the Doctor was no where to be found. She leant up against the wall which was next to the door and closed her eyes slightly. Her heart sinking when she heard her mothers agitated voice sounding from the other room.

"And what time is this?" Donna simply rolled her eyes as she pushed herself from the wall,

"How old am I?" Donna complained while she continued her way further into the hall while her mother Sylvia came out into the hall, standing in front of Donna.

"Not old enough to use a phone." She stated slightly agitated, both of her eyes hard while she stared at Donna. Donna simply looked at her while she removed her bag from her shoulder and made her way into the kitchen. All the while she was sitting at the table drinking tea, lost in thought while her mother bustled around in the kitchen.

"I thought you were only moving back for a couple of weeks. Look at you, I mean you're never gonna find a flat, not while you're on the dole. And its no good sitting there, dressed up, looking like you're job hunting, you've got to do something! It's not like the 1980s, no one's unemployed these days except you! How long did that job with Health and Safety last? Two days, and then you walk out. 'I have other plans', well I've not seen them. And it's no good sitting there dreaming, no one's gonna come along with a magic wand and make your life all better." She nagged but Donna simply rolled her eyes again and simply stated over to her mother slightly defeated

"Where is Grandad?"

"Where do you think he is! Up the hill. He's always up the hill." Silvia snapped again while she wiped her hands on a tea towel. Donna was walking up a huge hill with her coat on and a scarf wrapped loosely around her neck while she held a flask in her hand. Her thoughts drifting back to the Doctor and where he could be. Why wasn't he here? Why wasn't he here to save Stacy? But as Donna made her way over to her Grandfathers lot he walked out of a tiny shed. He looked over his shoulder and smiled slightly

"Aye, aye here comes trouble. Ha." Wilf smiled as he sat in a seat facing a small telescope

"Permission to board ship, sir?" Donna said in role as she stood by her grandfather with a small salute on her fingers

"Permission granted. Was she nagging you?" Wilf asked as he to saluted his granddaughter, Donna simply laughed

"Ha ha. Big time." Wilf sat down on a camp chair in front of the telescope while Donna took a few steps closer to Wilf.

"Brought you a thermos." She said kindly as she passed it to him. He took it eagerly in his large cold hands

"Oh, ta."

"You seen anything?" Donna questioned as she walked back towards the shed to pull out a large piece of material.

"Yeah, I've got Venus, there with an apparent magnitude of minus 3.5. At least that's what it says in my little book." Wilf chimed happily as he pointed towards the telescope and then up to the night sky which was filled with twinkling stars. Donna had perched on the tarpin, her legs crossed as she listened to her Granddad.

"Here, come and see, come on, here you go." Wilf encourage. Donna sat back up on her knees and moved her form over to the telescope. Closing one of her eyes as she looked at the Planet which was being shown to her

"Right? That's the only planet in the Solar System named after a woman." Wilf admired as he looked at the planet which he could see as only a small star

"Good for her." Donna said gently before looking back into the telescope "How far away is that?"

"Oh, its about 26 million miles. But we'll get there one day. In a hundred years time we'll be striding out amongst the stars. Jiggling about with all them aliens. Just you wait." Wilf informed, excitement buzzing in his eyes and admiration bellowing deeply in his voice.

"You really believe in all that stuff, don't you?" Donna settled with a huge smile on her face, but her eyes worn and sad

"It's all over the place these days. If I wait here long enough..." Wilf chimed, his hands pointing towards his seat that he had occupied. Which he occupied nearly every day

"I don't suppose you've seen a little blue box?" Donna asked something quietly, her voice barely above a whisper, but Wilf turned his gaze towards her, his eyes fixed on her face while she looked up at the stars, wishing he would return.

"Is that slang for something?" Wilf enquired.

"No, I mean it. If you ever see a little blue box flying up there in the sky, you shout for me, Gramps. Oh, you just shout." Donna said as she looked over at him. Her eyes fixed on the stars and then looking over at him. Wilf's own eyes flittering from the sky to his Granddaughter, his heart sinking slightly as he realised she was changing. Changing into something he wasn't sure about. He wanted to help her. To encourage her because her mother never did and it broke his heart to see her hurting like this.

"You know, I don't understand half the things you say these days." Wilf said as he looked down at her, his breath showing due to the cold night air.

"Nor me." Donna whispered.

"No, fair dos. You've had a funny old time of it lately. There was poor old what's his name, Lance, bless him... and that barmy old Christmas. I wish you would tell us what really happened." Wilf said as he shook his head as he looked down at him, his eyes purely focused on Donna as he looked at her with so much love and devotion. He was proud of her, even if the whole world was against her, because deep down, she had such a powerful character.

"I know. It's just... the things I've seen. Sometimes I think I'm going mad. I mean even tonight I was in a... doesn't matter." Donna stated as she looked over at her granddad and then back up towards the Stars.

"Well you're not yourself, I'll give you that. You just... you seem to be drifting, sweetheart." He said gently as he cocked his head slightly towards the left as he looked down at him

"I'm not drifting. I'm waiting." Donna said as she moved her eyes over to him

"What for?" Wilf asked as he continued to look down at her, a small smile present on his lips.

"The right man." Donna said after a slight pause, Wilf simply beamed

"Oh,ho,ho same old story. A man! Haha." He laughed loudly, his arms moving in slight dandy moves as he looked down at her, delighted.

"Ha ha, no, I don't mean like that." Donna smiled laughing "But, he's real. I've seen him. I've met him, just once. And then... I let him fly away." Donna sighed disappointed in herself

"Well there you are, go and find him!" Wilf exclaimed his hand pointing out in front of him

"I've tried. He's nowhere." Donna argued

"Oi, not like you to give up. You know, remember when you were about six years old, your mother said no holiday this year. So off you toddled, all on your own and you got on a bus to Strathclyde! Hah! We had the police after you and everything! Ha, where's she gone then, where's that girl, hey?" Wilf laughed, so much humour in your voice, a very encouraging speech to tell her.

"You're right. Cos he's still out there, somewhere. And I'll find him Gramps, even if I have to wait a hundred years. I'll find him." Donna smiled as she nodded her head and leant back on her hands as she looked up at the stars.

The Doctor was in the console room of the TARDIS with a mug of tea resting on the console while he was looking through his glasses and a magnifying glass at the little Adipose Pendent he had taken from the industry. Rose had her own mug of tea and she was cradling it in her hands as she leant up against the railings watching the Doctor as he worked.

"Ohh, fascinating." He beamed, his lips turning into a large smile, his eyes twinkling as he looked though the magnifying glass. "Come have a look" he said as he held out his arm to Rose who was smiling over at him. He passed her the magnifying glass and urged her forward, placing his hand on the small of her back. Rose leant in forward and she too took in what he was saying

"Seems to be a bio-flip digital stitch, specifically for..." Rose cried as she looked up at him, the Doctor simply beamed over at her

"That's exactly what it's for." He beamed, his body shaking with excitement "You were right" He laughed, Rose simply frowned

"I was?" Rose questioned, unable to believe she had found what was happening before he did.

"Oh don't be so shocked, you have a brilliant mind" He encouraged as he placed the TARDIS into the time vortex. Rose simply smiled over at him while she placed her hand onto the TARDIS console for her to hum toward Rose, making the Time Lady smile. Rose watched adoringly as her husband shot around the console talking to her at 100 miles and hour as he shot around the TARDIS

"Do you think it's a bit late to investigate now?" The Doctor asked her. Rose simply smiled at his eagerness before looking down at the watch which was present on her wrist. It showed her it was 3 in the morning on earth. She just looked up at the Doctor and smiled.

"It's a bit late honey" She said to him. His face dropped a little bit before he perked up, rushing to her side and grabbing hold of her hand.

"Great. Your all mine" He beamed as he pulled her from the room and bounded down the corridors of the TARDIS. Rose just laughed happily towards him as he dragged her through the corridors, his face turning to look at her, completely joyful.

By 8 in the morning the next day Rose found the Doctor under the gratings of the console room. She climbed the two steps quietly to see him with his back towards her. His hair was in disarray, his sonic screwdriver in his mouth while he had a frown on his face as he looked at the two wires. The TARDIS was humming more than usual this morning and when Rose listened carefully it was because she was complaining to the Doctor. Demanding him to stop messing around with the parts she didn't want messing around with. And as per usual, he was ignoring her. Rose simply smiled contently at the pair of them while she sneaked up to her husband. She walked quietly down to meet him before wrapping her arms gently around his shoulders. He kept looking between the two wires while he leant back into Rose slightly.

"Why am I not surprised to hear the TARDIS complaining this morning" Rose said gently into his ear, her chin resting on his shoulder while he continued to work.

"I'll have you know that she needs a complete overhaul, she's just being stubborn" The Doctor argued while he clunked the screwdriver out of his mouth. But he yelped when the two wires he was holding sparked sending bolts of electricity down his arms. He dropped them quickly and shook his hands together. Rose simply smiling and pulling away, humour was sparkling in her eyes. "I was only trying to help!" The Doctor complained as he spoke up to the ceiling of his ship. He just got an angry hum in reply as he walked up the stairs and grating towards the console to see his wife walking around the controls calmly, pressing buttons and leavers as she prepared the TARDIS for flight. The Doctor was simply rubbing his hands together as he tried to ease the pain. Rose noticed and smiled at him gently and walked over to him, reaching out for his hands. He gave them to her and she started to rub them gently and comfortingly to try and ease the pain.

"If you had only listened to her Doctor" Rose stated, her hands still working on his, humour and love sparkling in her eyes

"If only she had let me work in peace" The Doctor muttered, just for another angry hum sounding around the room "Hey! I'm only trying to help! If you weren't so obstinate I wouldn't be in this mess" The Doctor defended, shouting to the ceiling, just for a bit of the console to spark and another angry hum explode around the room. Rose simply rolled her eyes

"Look at the pair of you. You're like an old married couple. You're both as bad as each other!" Rose chimed, being stuck as the go between as usual. Rose simply kissed the Doctors hand before walking towards the Console. One so she could pilot the ancient time ship back to earth and also because she feared the TARDIS would hurt her husband again. The Doctor had simply shrugged his body to the captain's chair grumpily while the TARDIS was sulking. She rolled her eyes at the pair of them before she could feel the TARDIS travelling through the vortex. Should she say it... but a lot smoother than when the Doctor piloted the ship.

Donna was parking her car down one of the alleyways close to Adipose Industries. She was going to do what her Grandfather had told her. Too keep looking. To never give up. To keep looking for the Doctor. So this was how she found herself walking through the main entrance of the industries in question. She walked through the revolving door before walking through the call centre and waving her good mornings to Craig who looked at her with a frown on his face. She walked into the Ladies toilet and into one of the stalls for her to then sit there and wait patiently while she looked at her watch.

The Doctor and Rose were once again walking down the desolate corridor of Adipose Industries. The Doctor had not put on his trench coat and was just wearing his suit while Rose had her hair half up and half down. Her leather jacket being replaced with a low neck purple t-shirt and a brown zip up jumper. They walked through the corridor before the Doctor removed his Sonic Screwdriver, turned around in a circle before pressing the metal device towards the door and opened it. He let Rose in first before stepping in himself, he pressed the Screwdriver back to the door, once he heard the lock click to locked he then flip the device into his hand before putting it back to his pocket and found himself rather squished and cramped in a cupboard with his wife. His head wiggling slightly as he smiled a very wonky smile over at her. She simply rolled her eyes as she smiled at him.

Donna looked at her watch again. The thousandth time today to see the clock showed her the time of 6:10 pm. She started to stretch her neck in the stall, her legs and her back before she unlocked the door and walked out. She looked down into her bag when she heard her phone ringing. She pulled it out and answered it

"Not now!" Donna complained, whispering loudly down the phone

"I need the car... where are you?" Her mother cried over the phone, her tone of voice holding an edge of annoyance

"I can't I'm busy" Donna defended, her eyes hard, her torso stiff as she spoke to her mother

"Why are you whispering?"

"I'm in church" Donna stated, her head shaking as she held the phone to her ear

"What are you doing in church?"

"Praying" Donna snapped, her body tense as if she was stating the obvious

"Bit late for that, madam. But I need the car. I'm going out with Susette. She's asked all the Wednesday girls, apparently she's been on theorise Adipose pills. She says she looks marvellous." Her mother sounded before she heard the door of the bathroom snap open and she cut her mother off mid sentence in fear of being over heard.

"We know you're in here, so why don't you make this nice and easy and show yourself?" Miss Foster said, her hands pulled together resting on her stomach while Donna pulled up her legs scared, her eyes wide with terror.

"I'm waiting. I warn you, I'm not a patient woman. Now, out you come. Right. We'll do it the hard way. Get her!" Donna heard the voice of Miss Foster. The body guards began to kick open the stall doors. Each one of them making Donna jump, her eyes closed as she tried to keep her heart rate down. But before reaching her the noise of the stall doors opening stopped.

"There you are." Foster sounded

"I've been through the records, Foster, and all of your results have been faked. There's something about those pills you're not telling us." Donna heard the voice of the journalist Penny

"Oh, I think I'll be conducting this interview, Penny." Foster sounded and after they left; Donna sneaked out quietly, and followed them

Rose had no idea how long she had been sitting with the Doctor but she found herself rather comfortable. She was sitting with her back to his chest while his arms were resting around her waist. Her head was pressed softly to his shoulder while he had his legs bent. Both of them were sitting comfortably as they sat and talked.

"What do you think she's up too?" Rose stated as she broke the silence. Her hands absentmindedly stroking the back of the Doctor's hand. The Doctor simply smiled and moved his head slightly to hers so his chin rubbed against his wife's hair.

"To be honest, I'm not really sure" He voiced. Rose simply moved so she was looking at him. "If she wanted to destroy the human race there are so many easier ways of doing it than going through a dieting pill plan" The Doctor said quickly. "So your theory of creating a life sounds more valid and holding more validity than mine" He said down to her.

"But how is she doing it?" Rose asked "I mean, for a reaction to happen just like that would need a device of great power. I just don't understand how she could make the reaction happen at that single moment of time, and for it to be a controlled response. After all lipase is a violent reactant. Something the body secretes in small doses so it doesn't harm the body." Rose said as she looked up at her husband. His eyes twinkling with pride and he couldn't help his lips turn into a smile as she spoke to him like that. Showing him that she had learnt so much and he was over the moon that she had become as smart as he was.

"What?" Rose asked curious. A smile spreading across her lips as she took in her husbands dazed look. The Doctor simply continued to beam towards her "What?" Rose cried again, her own face lighting up slightly.

"After everything you have been through, how can you still live your life like nothing has happened?" The Doctor asked. His admiration on how she managed to stay strong for so long was baffling. Rose simply smiled gently towards him and pressed a small kiss to his lips.

"Your love and support, helps me take a day as it comes" She said to him gently. "And what's the point of being stuck in the past when you have everything you could dream of right in front of you" Rose beamed as she readjusted herself against the Doctor slim figure.

"You really mean that?" The Doctor questioned, his eyebrows raised. Rose simply turned around to look at him again

"Of course" She said to him, slightly confused. "Why wouldn't I?" She asked him.

"It's just... I don't know... I mean were always on the move and we never really get a chance to just be a couple. I mean we haven't been out to dinner, we haven't been Dancing, we haven't watched films. We don't do anything coupley... you know what I mean?" The Doctor rambled, unsure of what to say.

"Isn't that a bit domestic?" Rose said up to him, a cheeky smile on her face. The Doctor simply smiled at that

"Of course, but you were once human and that is a key tradition amongst your people. I didn't know weather you felt a bit disappointed that we didn't do that kind of stuff very often" The Doctor stated. Rose simply beamed over at him. She could tell he was nervous and these doubts must have been on his mind and she was glad he was telling her. She turned around in his arms and looked at him properly.

"All that matters is that I have you. You're helping me more than you know Doctor. Helping me settle back into life as a time traveller; helping me to forget the past. Your support is something I need right now more than ever. Sure it would be nice to do some of those things. But moments like these. What we are doing right now, spending some of my time with you, is just like going out for an evening." Rose said to him comforting, gently and lovingly. "So don't worry, I'm not going anywhere" She said after she placed her hand to his cheek. The Doctor simply looked at her happily before he engulfed her into a hug.

By 6 o'clock the Doctor and Rose found themselves going in separate directions. Rose going off to find the power source for the pendent while the Doctor was going to find out why Miss Foster needed the little fat people. He ran up flights of stairs until he reached the roof. He closed the door behind him for him to then look around at his surroundings. He looked over at the cleaners cradle and ran over to it. He climbed up the stairs and propelled his body into the holdings before finding the switches and making it descend.

Rose however was following the small device the Doctor had used yesterday night. Following the flashing lights and the bleeping noises as she tried to locate the alien technology.

The Doctor was making slow progress as he moved down the building. He was leaning over the side and looking at his surroundings with a frown on his face. But he stopped the machine when he came to a room which looked like an office. But as soon as he saw the door open he flung his body to the bottom of the cradle and out of sight. He pulled out his stethoscope from his pocket and pressed the buds to his ears and placed the other end to the wall, so he could listen to the conversation inside the room.

"This is ridiculous." He heard. A woman's voice. A woman who seemed to be a hostage.

"Sit there." Another woman's voice sounded

"I'm phoning my editor."

"I said sit."

"You can't tie me up. What sort of a country do you think this is?" The Doctor was simply breathing heavily as he continued to listen from the other side of the wall.

"Oh, it's a beautifully fat country. And believe me, I've travelled a long way to find obesity on this scale."

"So come on then, Miss Foster, those pills. What are they?"

"Well, you might just as well have a scoop, since you'll never see it printed. This is the spark of life." The Doctor wanted to try and get a better sound. He lifted his hand gently and moved the bud so it was pressed against the window. His mouth hanging open as he concentrated on what they were saying.

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

"Officially, the capsule attracts all the fat cells and flushes them away. Well, it certainly attracts them, that part's true. But it binds the fat together and galvanises it to form a body."

"Well, what d'you mean 'a body'?"

"I am surprised you never asked about my name. I chose it well. Foster, as in foster mother." The Doctor simply cocked his head slightly as he was tucked in against the window sill. Rose was right, she was creating something. But one of his eyebrows were frowned as he listened to the conversation through the window "And these are my children."

"You're kidding me. What the hell is that?" But at the sound of that the Doctor needed to see what she was talking about. He rose to his knees and then slowly raised his body. His eyebrows were both raised and his mouth had fallen open into a spherical shape as he looked at the small child on the desk. He hadn't realised that another woman was looking in from the window on the door.

"Adipose. It's called an Adipose. Made out of living fat. Stripped from ordinary human..." The Doctor had pulled off his stethoscope and his eyes were falling over the room. He looked over at the door and had to make a double take as he realised who was standing there. His eyebrows moved into a frown as he leant his arm against the window sill. Donna had her mouth open as they looked at each other. Both of them stunned by surprise.

"Donna?" The Doctor mouthed, his voice not in use

"DOCTOR!" Donna mouthed at the same time, her face lifting into such a huge smile

"But... what? Wha... What?" The Doctor mouthed again, not able to comprehend what to say or what to think and he knew his wife must have latched onto that as he felt her confusion.

"OH MY GOD!" Donna mouthed again, her hair flinging forward slightly

"But... how?" The Doctor whispered, his mouth miming the words, his face in a frown as his mouth hung open.

"It's me!" Donna cried, not making a sound but smiling as she pointed her hands towards her. All the while Foster was talking to Penny in the room.

"Well, I can see that!" The Doctor mouthed, his head nodding, his eyebrows raised while he pointed is fingers to his eyes and then to her.

"Oh this is brilliant!" Donna mouthed excitedly. Here hands motioning towards the spot she occupied and then showed the Doctor two thumbs up

"But what are you doing there?" The Doctor cried as he pointed towards her, his eyebrows frowned, his face scrunched up.

"I was looking for you!" Donna mouthed again, she pointed towards herself and then her eyes and then to his body. The Doctor simply moved his own hand towards his torso. His face still in a frown before after a pause he mimed back over to her

"What for?"

"I, came here, trouble, read about it, internet," She stated, as she looked like she was reading a book and then typing on a keyboard "I thought, trouble = you! And this place is weird! Pills! So I hid. Back there. Crept along. Heard this lot. Looked. You!" She stated as she mimed everything she was saying, creeping along, pills everything. All the while the Doctor was nodding slightly, his eyebrows raised, his mouth hanging open "Cos they..."Donna mimed again, her thumbs towards the people in the room, before freezing after she realised she had been caught. Miss Foster had her arms crossed over her chest. The Doctor simply turned slowly to see why she had frozen, his facial expressions not changing.

"Are we interrupting you?" She stated before the Doctor turned back to Donna digging in his pocket

"Run!" He yelled. Donna nodded before bolting from her spot

"Get her!" Miss Foster exclaimed while the Doctor pointed the sonic screwdriver over at the door and locked it. He then moved it to elevate the cradle back to the roof. All the while Donna was running up the stairs while the Doctor was running down them.

Rose was still following the bleeping noises when she felt something in the back of her head. She stopped what she was doing and concentrated on the feeling. She could feel her husbands present and she placed one of her hands to her brow. Her face turning in to a frown. She could feel his surprise, then his confusion and then his worry. His blue light force which she could see suddenly became brighter which meant he was on the move. Running more like it as she could feel the adrenaline running around his body. This was one of the ways they could communicate. Telepathically. This had been one of the ways she had called him when she was used as the Daleks in full structure. But before she knew what was happening she could hear the Doctor's voice in her head.

"Sorry Hun, but we're in trouble" He chimed. Rose simply rolled her eyes before stuffing the device into her pocket and bolting from her spot, tracking down his life sign

"I'm on my way" She said to him and she could feel the Doctor laughing at himself and the situation they had got caught in. Once again it was Rose to the rescue. Once again it was Rose who was getting him out of the sticky situation he had gotten himself into for being careless. Not that she minded. She liked having to mother him. Made life interesting. After all, she loved him for who he was and that was never ever going to change.

"Typical" She muttered to herself before bolting from her spot

The Doctor found himself pegging it down the stairs. Smiling to himself when he felt his Wife's reaction to the news he gave her. He loved her for it. Always accepting him for getting them into trouble. Always coming to his rescue. But as he made his way towards a level off he saw Donna. They both looked at each other before they both engulfed each other into a huge hug.

"Oh my God!" Donna cried into his shoulder before pulling away, her hands still on his elbows "I don't believe it! You've even got the same suit!" She cried "Don't you ever change?" She stated aghast. The Doctor was simply breathing heavily, his eyebrows raised, his mouth hanging open as he looked at her while he looked down at his clothing.

"Yeah thanks Donna, not right now." He complained, one of his eyebrows raised, his mouth moving in harsh movements before he heard the door of the corridor opening. He looked down the glass windows to see Fosters Guards running up to meet them

"Just like old times!" The Doctor cried happily, a huge smile on his face as he grabbed hold of Donnas' hand and they headed upstairs towards the roof

"Cos I thought, how do I find the Doctor? And then I just thought, look for trouble and then he'll turn up! So I looked everywhere, you name it - UFOs, sightings, crop circles, sea monsters. I looked, I found them all. Like that stuff about the bees disappearing, I thought, I bet he's connected. Cos the thing is, Doctor, I believe it all now. You opened my eyes. All those amazing things out there, I believe them all. Well, apart from that replica of the Titanic flying over Buckingham Palace on Christmas Day, I mean that's gotta be a hoax!" Donna babbled with excitement. All the while the Doctor was busy working on the cradle controls with the sonic. Every now and then he looked over at her with a frown on his face. But once he finished he placed the Sonic Screwdriver into his inside pocket and spoke up to her with a frown.

"What d'you mean, the bees are disappearing?"

"I don't know. That's what it says on the internet." Donna exclaimed while the Doctor climbed into the cradle.

"Well on the same site, there was all the conspiracy theories about Adipose Industries, I thought let's take a look!" Donna answered while she walked over to the base of the stairs. All the while the Doctor was working on the controls

"In you get!" He cried as he waggled his fingers towards her

"What in that thing?" Donna stated, her hands pointing towards it. The Doctor simply rolled his eyes

"Yes in that thing!" The Doctor cried exasperated.

"But if we go down in that, they'll just call us back up again." Donna argued, waving her arms around her

"No no no, cos I've locked the controls with a sonic cage." He stated while she climbed the stairs "I'm the only one who can control it. Not unless she's got a sonic device of her own. Which is very unlikely." The Doctor stated. They had made good progress until the cradle jolted as Miss Foster had accelerated the cradle. Donna screamed as it happened but the Doctor managed to stop it with the screwdriver. The Doctor and Donna falling to the floor in the process. The Doctor suddenly shot up and tried to open the nearest window with the Sonic.

"Hold on. Hold on, we can get in through the window." He muttered to himself and Donna but after a few seconds of trying he knew he couldn't open it, she had deadlocked the whole building. The one thing the sonic screwdriver could not open.

"Can't get it open!"

"Well smash it then!" Donna cried as she lifted a huge spanner and started to bash the window. But she couldn't break the safety glass. Suddenly Donna looked up to see the cradle cable starting to smoke and sparkle

"Cutting the cable!" Donna screamed and just at that moment it broke. The Doctor grasped hold of the inside of the cradle but Donna was falling through the air

"DONNA!"

"Doctor!" She cried as she clung onto the broken cable, hanging high in the air.

"Hold on!"

"I AM!" She screamed while the Doctor tried to pull her up by the cable, but he was too weak to do it.

"Doctor!"

Rose was running up flight after flights of stairs. Her breathing was coming out in grasps as she made her way all the way to the roof. The stairs seeming to go on for ever. She had traced her husbands light to the roof before it began to plummet to the 19th floor. Whatever was happening his heartbeats were beating quickly and worries was settling in his stomach. But as soon as Rose made it to the roof corridor she snapped the door open and flung her body around the corner and sprinted down the concrete corridor. Her blue converses echoing around the empty corridor. She bolted through the other door at the end of the corridor to see Miss Foster holding out what looked like to be a Sonic Pen in her hand, working on other cable. The other one seeming to already be broken.

"I would stop that if I were you" Rose snapped, her breathing coming out in gasps as she spoke over to Foster. Both the woman and the two security guards snapping their bodies around to see who had spoken to them

"Oh I don't think so" She smiled before turning back around and using the device. But Rose could make out her dropping the device and clinging onto her injured hand.

"I did warn you" Rose smirked, Foster simply glared back towards you.

"Who are you?" Foster cried as she moved towards Rose, who was smirking at her.

"My names Rose. Rose Smith" Rose said waving slightly, her confidence holding out while she could feel the Doctor sorting himself and the other woman he knew out.

"Ah the young intelligent woman from the presentation" Foster smiled while placing her hand to her glasses

"That's me. Hello" Rose smiled and once again waving.

"I guess your accomplishes must be the other two hanging for their lives" Foster said again with a smile.

"Oh yes. That would be the Doctor and his friend" Rose smiled explaining to Miss Foster who she and her husband were.

"And evidently off- Worlders, judging by your sonic technology" She stated as she removed her glasses. Rose simply smiled, placing her hands behind her back as she rocked onto the balls of her feet

"Yes" Rose smiled "And the Doctor still has yours" She stated. Foster simply snapped her glasses back onto her face rather frustrated. Rose simply beamed over at her.

"Yes, my Sonic Pen" She stated. Rose simply raised her eyebrows as she looked over at the other blonde woman.

"And if you were to sign your real name that would be...?" Rose asked curious, her hands moving to her sides

"Matron Cofelia of the Five-Straighten Classabindi Nursery Fleet. Intergalactic Class." She said as she spoke over her glasses. The last part making her head move as she made her point. Rose simply nodded over to her, her eyebrows raised

"A wet nurse, using humans as surrogates." Rose informed. Miss Foster still surprised how someone so young could no so much

"I've been employed by the Adiposian First Family to foster a new generation after their breeding planet was lost."Foster explained

"What do you mean lost? How do you lose a planet?" Rose questioned, her curiosity getting the better of her.

"Oh, politics are none of my concern. I'm just here to take care of the children on behalf of the parents." Foster answered, her head moving a smile forming on her face.

"What, like an outer space super-nanny?" Rose asked again

"Yes, if you like." Foster smiled, nodding her head

"So those creatures are made out of fat. I'm guessing if they wanted the adipose could convert more than just fat, due to the lipase" Rose asked. Her theory becoming a reality

"Oh, in a crisis the Adipose can convert bone and hair and internal organs. Makes them a little bit sick, poor things." Foster informed, her hands closing in together.

"Seeding a level 5 planet is against galactic law." Rose informed. Her tone even, her eyebrows raised, her head rose slightly

"Are you threatening me?" Miss Foster snarled

"I'm trying to help you, Matron. When the family have the children they won't need you" Rose informed. Her face never changing.

"Oh I doubt that very much" Foster smiled

"If you don't stop this, we will put an end to it" Rose said again. Foster's smile simply became bigger

"I hardly think you can stop bullets" She smiled. Rose simply snapped her body upward. Her face turning into a smile

"Well, it was a nice try" She said to herself before bolting from her spot and down a corridor. Running away from Miss Foster and the guards who were chasing after her.

He had caught it. He had caught her pen and now if he listened carefully he could hear his wife talking to Miss Foster. She had once again come to his rescue which gave him the inspiration to climb up the cable to the other window. The Pen in his mouth as he climbed up it. He pressed the pen to the window and managed to get it open. All the while Donna was being battered and swept at by the wind. Her grip slowly being loosened.

"I'm going to fall!"

"This is your entire fault. I should've stayed at home!" Donna moaned while the Doctor continued to sonic the window

"I won't be a minute!" he yelled down to her, before ducking his body. Moving one of his legs onto the window sill. His other hand pressed to the window ledge before he fell, ungracefully into the building. The Doctor found himself running down the stairs once again before he got down to the right corridor. He snapped open the door before running straight into Fosters Office and towards the window where he could see Donnas' legs flapping around in the wind

"Is anyone gonna tell me what's going on?" The Woman who had been tied to the chair asked the Doctor simply turned back towards her, while she looked over at him.

"What, you're a journalist?" The Doctor asked as he begun to sonic the window, both his eyebrows raised

"Yes." She cried

"Well, make it up!" The Doctor chimed as he opened the window. He went to grab for Donnas' legs, but she was wiggling to much. The Doctor half hanging through the window as he tried to bring her in

"Get off!" She yelled down to him

"I've got you! I've got you. Stop kicking!" The Doctor complained, his body pressed to the windows while he managed to pull her inside

"I was right. It's always like this with you, innit?" Donna complained as she sorted out her suit and hair as she looked over at him, both of them breathing heavily. That's when the Doctor felt something via his connection with his wife. She had stopped talking to Foster and now she was running for her life as she was being chased.

"OH YES!" The Doctor cried happily, a huge grin on his face "And off we go!" He continued, Donna smiling at him before they both bolted from the room. The Doctor finally having a good idea where the device was being held

"Rose meet us on level one, corridor C" He said over to his wife, and smiled when he heard her voice inside his head

"See you soon"
