AN: Hello! I forgot to update yesterday, cuz I just got on Fall Break, and I'm not used to updating things on a regular basis. I'll will try to be better at this. Enjoy!
"Gary, what did you just say?" Asked Rachel.
Gary looked up. "You all heard me. Why do I need to repeat myself? That expression doesn't even make sense. Why would you say 'what', even though you heard me? Anyway, I said time and relative dimensions in space, TARDIS, the Doctor."
"Gary, what does any of that mean? Is it some plan of Stanton Parish's? Is he using more photic stimulators to enhance Alpha abilities?" Pressed Dr. Rosen.
Gary shook his head. "No. The Doctor is an alien. He lives in a box. It's blue," He continued flipping his fingers around, searching for more information about the Doctor.
Kat's brows furrowed. "Gary, none of that makes sense. Aliens aren't real. You're... Describing a hobo or something? Why else would he live in a box? Is Doctor his name or something? It's kinda weird, but I can see it..." She looked at the others for help.
"I'm at a complete loss of words, Gary. Are you sure you're feeling all right? What on earth are you talking about?" Dr. Rosen reached over to feel Gary's forehead, but Gary batted his hand out if the way.
"Gallifrey! Not Earth, Gallifrey!" Gary cried, getting more agitated by the minute.
"Gary!" Cried Nina, grabbing his shoulders, "What the hell are you talking about?!"
Gary squirmed out of Nina's grasp and ran into the kitchen. "I'm going to eat my pudding now!" He yelled.
Dr. Rosen got up and talked to Nina sternly. "Nina, did you push him just now?"
"Of course not!" She said, surprised.
"Are you positive?" Dr. Rosen said.
"Yes, Dr. Rosen! I know how bad it would be if I pushed Gary! I would never do that to him!" Nina cried.
"Oh, like you would never do it to me?" Hicks said sarcastically. Nina glared at him. They had broken up because she had accidentally pushed him and made him forget half a day.
"Hicks, it was different then! You weren't damaged at all by the experience! If I pushed Gary, who knows what would happen?!" Nina yelled.
Rachel and Bill got up, ready to intervene if fists started flying. Dr. Rosen got there first.
"Nina, Cameron, please take a seat. Bill, Rachel..." He nodded towards Gary in the kitchen. Bill and Rachel hurriedly left his office.
Bill and Rachel sat down on either side of Gary at the table in the kitchen. "How are you doing Gary?" Bill asked. Gary was licking his spoon.
"Nina shouldn't have touched me! And you guys shouldn't have been yelling at me! That wasn't nice!" Gary said. "Oh! You were confused!" Gary said, realizing.
Rachel smiled. "Yes, Gary, we were. Who is the Doctor? What does TARDIS mean? What box are you talking about?" She said gently.
"The Doctor is an alien, I told you. TARDIS means time and relative dimensions in space, TARDIS for short. The box is the TARDIS. It's blue." Gary explained.
"Oh. I see." Rachel said. She didn't really see, but they were getting somewhere. "Where did you find this information, Gary?"
Gary walked to his office, down the hall. Rachel and Bill followed. Gary started typing things into his computer, and multiple windows opened up. One was of a picture that had been zoomed in, so you could see a man's face. The bottom of the page said 'WANTED! The Doctor!' The other windows said similar things, some with other pictures of different people. Some of the pages also had pictures of a blue police public call box, something Rachel had never seen in real life.
"Gary, is that man the Doctor?" Said Bill, pointing to a picture.
Gary nodded. "Bill, they're all the Doctor. And the blue box there," He pointed, "is the TARDIS."
"Oh, the Doctor is an Alpha! He can change his face!" Said Rachel. She had seen all of the different pictures, all claiming they were the Doctor. There were 11 different pictures. Some of them had girls in them as well. Bill couldn't help noticing that they were all rather pretty.
"No, Rachel, he isn't an Alpha, I told you, he's an alien! From the planet Gallifrey!" Gary complained.
Kat walked into Gary's office. She had been in Dr. Rosen's office, but no one noticed her recording their conversation until she had giggled when Nina told him about something she had made a push victim do that wasn't appropriate to say out loud. "Hey guys! Find anything interesting about the Doctor?" She said in a joking tone.
Bill glanced up at her. "Uh, yeah, maybe..." He scratched his head. "According to Gary, our mysterious Doctor is an alien. And the blue box thing is called a... TARDIS?" Bill sighed. "I'm not sure how to react to all this."
Kat had whipped out her iPhone and was moving it close to the screen to capture all of the Doctor info. "This is the Doctor guy, who is apparently an alien from a different planet! He's also got this blue police box thing for some reason..."
Rachel looked confused. "Wait, so why was this guy at the apartment? Hector Dearborne was supposed to be there... And what about the other two people who were in the apartment with him? Was it two if those girls?" A disgusted look crosses her face. "Why does he call himself the Doctor? What's he doing with those girls? Is he some kind of pedophile or something?"
Bill nodded. "Yeah, that would make sense. He probably keeps all of his gadgets in that box. These kind of people disgust me." He grimaced.
Gary shook his head. "No, no, no, you guys! He's a good guy! He's saved the world from aliens a bunch of times! Weren't you wondering where those little black boxes had come from? He's nice! He doesn't do that kind of..." Gary waved his hand around. "Stuff." He finished.
Rachel was still in a tizzy over why the Doctor was where Hector Dearborne supposedly was. "But Bill, why was the Doctor at the apartment and not Hector Dearborne?" She insisted.
Bill shook his head. "I don't know Rachel. Maybe they're in cahoots?"
Kat interrupted. "But Bill, Gary seems very sure that the Doctor is a nice guy! I mean, we don't know who was in the apartment with him, or how they left, with that TARDIS no less!"
"Gah... I don't know! We'll have to see what Rosen thinks about this. What is taking him so long?" Bill said, exasperated.
Kat giggled. "Well, Hicks and Nina were arguing about some pretty..." She glanced at Gary. "Interesting stuff. About them. And Dr. Rosen seemed pretty embarrassed about it all."
Rachel shook her head. It had been over a year since Hicks and Nina had broken up, but they still argued about it. Hicks had been in an awful mood ever since Dani, his girlfriend (and Dr. Rosen's daughter), had been killed by Stanton Parish six months ago. Dr. Rosen had been in a foul mood too, and had been quite irritable as of late.
"Ah, speak of the devils." Kat smiled as Nina, Hicks, and Dr. Rosen entered the office as well.
"What have you found out, Gary?" Asked Dr. Rosen.
Bill answered for him. "The Doctor, according to Gary, is an alien from the planet Gallifrey. The TARDIS is a blue box. He can change his form or something, and by the looks of these pictures, he never ages...like Stanton Parish... Oh! He also has a bunch of girls with him from time to time, but Gary assures us that he is in no way harming them."
Hicks scoffed at Bill's description. "Oh, yeah, sure, he's an alien from some planet no one's ever heard of, and he has girls with him all the time? I highly doubt that."
Nina shifted her weight onto her other leg. "As much as it pains me to say this, I agree with Hicks. This sounds extremely unlikely. Besides, how did they get that TARDIS thing into the apartment? It touched the ceiling and there's no way they carried it in there. And what does this have to do with Hector Dearborne? He was the main reason we were there! If he's using his electricity to help Stanton Parish, then we have to stop him."
Dr. Rosen was about to say something when a woman in a suit handed him a file. "There's been another lead on Dearborne, sir, in the Golden Rod Apartments." She walked away briskly.
Dr. Rosen flipped through the file. "Bill, please get on this right away," he said, handing Bill the file.
Bill glanced at it, and said, "Let's go, team!"
