Chapter 32

What?! No!

By: Izzy

Lady had let the Doctor go back to Martha because in the five years they had spent as a family she could tell that he was itchy. His thoughts consumed with what Professor Lazarus had said on the TV. So she agreed to stay with the twins. Which with them being Time Lords they were growing at a fast rate, well compared to humans. They were already talking fluently, also dancing and singing with Lady which had become the Doctor's favorite form of entertainment. Since it was late she put the twins to bed and sat in the library reading a book she was fond of called 'Diablo: Legacy of Blood.' She got to chapter 10 when she all of the sudden felt tired and passed out.

"Sis!" Jessica's voice broke through Lady's sleep addled mind. "If you don't get up now-" Jessica left the threat hang as she often did.

"What the hell Sis?" Lady asked as she rubbed her face and sat up. "What am I doing here? Where's the twins?!"

"Awe, Sis," Jessica said. "Been dreaming of a better life again?"

"'Better life?'" Lady asked.

"You been dreaming for weeks that you sailed off into the night with the Doctor," Jessica said. "And that he fell madly in love with you." She laughed. "You renamed yourself 'Lady,' you hate being called 'Lady.'"

"It was a dream?" Rhee asked as tears silently trailed down her face. She was Rhee again. Ordinary, broken, lifeless Rhee. The Doctor wasn't real. She felt her heart bust in a million pieces, as she did tears pored uncontrollably down her face pooling in her lap.

"Sis," Jessica said. "Sis!" She gasped as she looked into Rhee's eyes, they were lifeless. Jessica turned to the door. "Stephen!" Fear thick in her voice. She turned back to Rhee. "Sis! Sis! Rhiannon!"

"What's wrong?" Stephen asked as he walked in.

"She won't respond!" Jessica exclaimed. "She looks broken inside, just like she did that night!"

"Rhiannon!?" he exclaimed. "Sis! Answer me!" He sighed. "We have to take her back in."

"No!" she exclaimed. "I'm not dumping her back there!"

Meanwhile back on the TARDIS, the Doctor just got back in with Martha. "That was different," she said. He sighed.

"Daddy!" the twins shouted as they came barreling down the hall. They both collided with his legs, and clung on like they were scared.

"What's wrong, little ones?" the Doctor asked as he looked down and saw that they both were in tears.

"Mummy's gone!" they shouted. The Doctor's eyes shot open and he looked for Lady in his mind through their bond but his head was empty. He gasped as he couldn't find her at all. There was not even any evidence of him ever have been bonded. That couldn't be he remembered Lady. He remembered her like he remembered all of his companions.

"They can't be serious," Martha said. "I mean, Lady would never leave the twins behind."

"She's gone," he said, panic thick in his voice. "I can't find her bond."

"Wait, Lady told me about your bond," she said. "If you can't find it that means..."

"I can't even feel it, almost like I never had a bond," he said. He looked down at the twins and saw that they were fading. "No!" He took his Sonic and tried to keep them from fading but it was too late. "NO!" He broke down in uncontrollable sobs.

"What happening?" she asked.

"No Lady, no twins," he sobbed. Suddenly the old anger raged through him like a raging fire. He would find her and fix whatever happened to her. He would save his family! He jumped up and flipped switch after switch. He had to find the crack in the universe that led to her universe.

It took him awhile but he found it. But it was going to take more then his TARDIS to reopen it, without destroying both universes. More like the power of 4 TARDISs. Well the last him and the next him would surly help, but were was he going to get a fourth TARDIS. Back farther? No, he didn't want the reminder. Maybe another future him. So he sat about sending out an SOS to the three Doctors. Praying to all Lady's gods that he would be able to save her.

"Doctor," Jack said as he noticed a blinking light.

"I'm busy I have got to find Rhee!" the Ninth Doctor roared.

"But there is an SOS," Jack said. "Might be her."

"Well why the hell didn't you say sooner!?" the Ninth Doctor shouted as Jack sighed.

"Don't blame, Jack," Rose said. "He tried but you blew him off." Nine shook his head as he worked on finding where the SOS came from.

The TARDIS shook and shimmied. "Whoa," Amy Pond said as the TARDIS threw her to and fro. Rory Williams caught her and supported her as the TARDIS shook. "What's going on, Doctor?" That's when Rory noticed that an important member of the TARDIS gang was missing from the console room

"Where's Lady?" he asked.

"Gone," the Eleventh Doctor said with a sad undertone. "I woke up this morning and she was just gone. Then I got an SOS from another TARDIS."

"Do you think it's her?" she asked as she and Rory finally made it to the console itself.

"I don't know," Eleven said solemnly. He hated that feeling, the feeling of helplessness that he felt.

"Doctor!" Danny Pink exclaimed as he ran into the console room. "Doctor, Lady disappeared right in front of me!"

"What?!" the Twelfth Doctor exclaimed. Suddenly a flashing light caught his attention, and he went to work.

"Danny, I heard you yelling," Clara Oswald said breathlessly as she came into the console room.

"What happened to her?" Danny asked. Twelve didn't answer him he just pushed buttons and levers and looked at the screen with his brow in what Lady called 'Attack Mode,' everyone else called it a scowl.

"I think we should leave him alone for now," Clara said.

"I think you're right," Danny said.

"Ah ha!" the Twelfth Doctor exclaimed. "What? Well, someone has a twisted sense of humor."

"What is it?" she asked.

"The SOS is from Earth," he said, and she looked confused. "America!" She still didn't seem to get what he was getting at. "Do I have to spell everything out for you pudding brains?! Muncie, Indiana!"

"Wait, that's were Lady's from!" Danny exclaimed.

"Someone's getting it!" the Twelfth Doctor exclaimed.

"Where is Lady?" she asked. "She's the only one to get him to behave." Both men gave her a sorrowful look.

Meanwhile on Earth, Martha and Ten arrived. He prayed the other Doctors would listen to reason, but knowing him, no. Another TARDIS arrived and out popped a man of medium height and dark skin, with a woman that was about the same height. "Wow," the man said. "This looks like home not America."

"Lady always said that her hometown was a bit like the small towns in England," the woman said.

"Hello, I'm the Doctor," Ten said, with a friendly wave.

"He's looks so young," the man said.

"Don't be rude, Danny," the woman said. "It's nice to see you again."

"Again?" Ten asked.

"It hasn't happened for him yet," a guff male Scottish voice came from the new TARDIS. Out walked an older man with a scowl on his face and his hands in his pockets. "I'm the Doctor."

"So I become a grumpy old guy again," Ten said with a frown.

"Lady says he not grumpy," the woman said. "Just knows how he wants things, and they never work that way." She and the man, Danny, have a good laugh.

"Oi!" Twelve said. The sound of another TARDIS landing resounded. Both Doctors knew which Doctor was next because they recognized the beat up TARDIS. After it fully appeared out popped Rose and Jack. Jack walked start up to Ten.

"Why, hello, Captain Jack Harkness," Jack said. Ten rolled his eyes.

"I'm the Doctor," Ten said.

"But how can you be the Doctor?" Rose asked.

"He hasn't cover regeneration with you yet has he?" Jack asked.

"Regeneration?" she asked.

"Wait, speaking of how do they know about regeneration?" Ten asked Twelve.

"Clara was with Lady and I when we regenerated last," Twelve said. While Ten was talking to Twelve, Jack took the opportunity to explain regeneration to Rose.

"And I told him," Clara said as she pointed to Danny.

"That, and Lady and I talk a lot," Danny said.

"So where is she?" Nine asked, well more demanded to know.

"That is why I called all of us here but I'm waiting on one more," Ten said. Twelve groaned. "What?"

"Your next regeneration goes wrong," Twelve said. "It's horrible, though not as bad as our sixth run."

"Oh, come on now the last you wasn't that bad," Clara said.

"Of course you would say that," Twelve said with a eye roll. With that another TARDIS appeared. Twelve groaned louder as Eleven popped out of his TARDIS with a fez on.

"Oh," Eleven said. "I was hoping she was going to be here waiting for me."

"She's not out there?" a Scottish female voice squawked.

"Calm down Amy dear," a timid male voice called after his wife. A red head pushed past Eleven and got in the center of everyone.

"Where the hell's my best mate?!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. A man came from the TARDIS from behind Eleven.

"Amy dear, trust the Doctor he'll find her," the man said as he pulled her into a hug and she started to cry on his shoulder. "Hi, I'm Rory, and this is my wife Amy."

"Hello, Ponds," Twelve said. She stood up and looked at Twelve puzzled. "I'm the Doctor, remember I told you about regeneration?"

"You're the Doctor?" she asked.

"So am I," Ten said. "And him too." Pointed to Nine.

"Now why'd you call us here?" Nine asked.

"Yes," Ten said. "As well all know Lady has disappeared." Everyone nodded. "Well I went to the crack that leads to her universe and it was closed."

"But it's never been closed," Eleven said. "It's never closed!"

"Yes," Ten said. He turned to his ninth incarnation. "There is something you should know."

"What?!" Nine rudely exclaimed.

"Let me explain," Clara said. "Lady's from a universe where all this-" She gestured all around. "-isn't real. It's all a show on the telly." Nine looked like he was about to get angry.

"Calm down," Ten commanded. "She and I fought about it and I nearly lost her because of it."

"But she hid it from me!" Nine shouted.

"For our protection," Eleven said. "She knows how dangerous foreknowledge is."

"Doctor," Rose said as she laid a hand on Nine's arm. "She loves you with all her heart, never doubt that." Nine looked down and then walked away, he needed some time to think. "He'll come round."

"Rhee or Lady as most of you know her as," Eleven said. "Is the only thing keeping him in one piece." Both Ten and Twelve gave a sad looked to the companions.

"I estimate that, those of us that have known her the longest will forget her first," an unfamiliar female voice said from behind Ten. Everyone turned to see Ai with a woman with the big blonde hair. "I'm River, and Lady is important to me."

"Hello, River," Twelve said sadly.

"River," Eleven said gruffly.

"Why is Lady so important to you?" Ten asked gruffly.

"Because she gave me my life and made it possible for me to marry the man of my dreams," River said.

"And everyone knows me," Ai said with a smile. She saw Jack. "Jack!" She ran to him and hugged him as if she would fall off the world if she let go and he hugged her back but lightly.

"Hello?" he asked.

"Is this our first meeting?" she asked as she let go and looked at him with a hurt expression.

"Captain Jack Harkness," he said in his normal flirty tone, while extending a hand for her to shake. She wanted to cry.

"Ai Smith," she said as tears wield up in her eyes.

"Don't cry," he said as he hugged her. "Pretty girls like you shouldn't cry." He wiped her tears away as they fell.

"Ai," River said with a deep sadness in her voice. "We need to find your mum."

"I know," Ai sniffed as she pulled out of Jack's arms. "We need to do a shuffle of companions."

"What? Why?" Ten asked.

"Like Riv said," Ai said. "Those of us that have known her the longest will forget her first. So if we divide Big Ears' team up among the rest of us we should have someone that remembers always." Nine scoffed at his nickname. "Nice to see you join us again."

"Ai you're forgetting that we are still missing a few members of this search and rescue party," River said.

"Not to worry, Love," a man that sounded very similar to the Tenth Doctor said. "We're here." Everyone turned to see two men and a woman. The man that spoke not only sounded like Ten he looked like a clone of the Tenth Doctor, except for his lighter hair, and wore a t-shirt, jeans with a suit jacket and dress shoes. "Hello, I'm the Warrior."

"Hi, I'm the Songstress," a woman that stood to the Warrior's left said. This woman looked a lot like Lady, but much thinner, and she wore form fitting shirt with a short skirt.

"And I'm the Shaman," the last man said. This man looked like a young Nine, with lots more hair, and really green eyes. He wore a suit, not pinstriped but a suit none the less.

"Who are you?" Nine asked. All three of the new comers frowned.

"You know, time travel stinks some days," the Songstress said.

"Calm down, Song," the Warrior said. "We knew that he wouldn't know us."

"But that doesn't make it sting any less," the Shaman said.

"JT! Mel!" Eleven exclaimed as he ran to the twins with arms wide open. He hugged them both at the same time. "But how? Your mother was taken."

"Well it's a timey whimy thing," the Shaman said as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Sha's right, Dad," the Songstress said. "For the three of us this is history." Twelve approached Shaman and gave a nod of approval.

"Not a man of words in this form?" Shaman asked with a small laugh.

"Not much I can say, Dave," Twelve said. "It does me good that the three of you are here."

"What the hell?" Nine nearly shouted.

"We are the sons and daughter of the Doctor and Lady," the Songstress said with a sweet smile. "Our real names are Mele Jane or Mel." She pointed to herself. "Jame Theta, or JT." She pointed to the Warrior. "And our little brother David Alexander or Dave." She pointed to the Shaman.

"Hello," the Shaman said.

"I can see it," Rose said.

"Wait so we-" Nine started but cut himself off.

"I think we broke Dad's brain," the Warrior said with a laugh.

"Be fair, JT," the Shaman said. "That's Dad after that 'Day.'"

"Well what the hell are we doing standing 'round here?" the Songstress asked. "Standing out her like a bunch of humans! We have a Mum to save!"

"Yeah!" her brothers cheered.

"You can tell which one takes after the Doctor," Amy said.

"We should divide up as such," the Songstress said. "Rose, Amy, Dave, you should go with the future version of Dad." She pointed to Twelve, who rolled his eyes but kept quiet. "Jack, Martha, Riv, you should go with present Dad." She pointed to Eleven, who nodded. "Rory, Danny, JT, you should go with that version of Dad." She pointed to Ten. "While Ai, Clara, and myself go with Mum's first." She pointed to Nine.

"Is she always this bossy?" Jack asked.

"You should see her with her husband," River said. "Now that is bossy!" With limited argument each person went where they were told.

"Lead the way, suits," the Songstress said to Ten. "You're the man with the plan at the moment."

"Right," Ten said as he plugged in the information. Within minutes the four TARDIS' were in Lady's original universe.

"I think we should start at Todd's," River said. "If anyone would know what's going on it would be him."

"I agree," Ten said. Shortly there after they land a few blocks from Todd's house.

"Let me," Ai said. "I don't know if it would be a good idea for any of you too go just yet." She left the TARDIS she was in, then walked to Todd's. Todd met her at the door with tears in his eyes.

"Are you real?" he asked.

"What's wrong?" she asked, sounding concerned.

"Are you real?" he repeated his question.

"Yes," she said firmly leaving no room for doubt.

"Then leave," he said.

"Excuse me?" she asked.

"Go to March 25th 2017," he said. "Save my best friend from herself. She needs him as much as he needs her." Instantly she knew, he was talking about Lady and the Doctor.

"I swear to you I will do everything in my power to save her," Ai said. He handed her a piece of paper.

"Here's the address," he said. "Of where she lived then and where she is now."

"Thank you," she said as she took the paper. He dashed back inside but she could still hear him breaking behind the door. She couldn't understand, Todd wasn't someone that broke easily. That unnerved her, but she shook her head and walked back to the Doctors.

"You look unnerved," River said.

"I am," Ai said. "Todd was a mess."

"A mess?" River asked. "That man is one of the strongest humans I know."

"That's why I'm unnerved," Ai said.

"What could it mean?" Clara asked.

"He gave me this," Ai said, holding up the paper. "He said it has the address of her current location and the location of her in 2017. Which is where he said we can save her."

"Why did he give us both addresses?" Danny asked.

"Because I want to she her now," Eleven said. "Todd know me well."

"That's what I thought," Ai said. "Well allons-y!" They all piled back into the TARDIS' following Nine's TARDIS. They landed in a graveyard.

"She lives in a graveyard, that's rubbish," Amy said as everyone got out.

"No," Jack said emotionless.

"What is it Jack?" Rose asked.

"No," Rory said. "No, no, no!" Everyone's gaze followed the two men's gaze, to see a grave that said; 'Rhiannon Jane Hayden, March 26th 1987 – April 17th 2020. Beloved friend, mother, and wife.'

"What?!" Ten exclaimed.

"Visiting her too?" a woman's voice came from behind them. They turned to see Tina. "She was one of my the best woman anyone could ask for."

"Yea," the Doctors said, breathlessly. Tina walked close enough to place flowers on the grave.

"She," Tina started but broke out into tears. Everyone followed suit, unable to hold in the emotion that was gnawing at their souls. "... killed herself."

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed.

"As you all probably know," Tina explained between sobs. "She lost her family in 2015." Everyone nodded. "Well in 2017 she started to have dreams of a better life, and slipped into the delusion that it was her real life, with a fictional character. The Doctor of all people. But one day she woke up from an exceptionally good dream, and broke. Over the coarse of a month it was like she was getting farther and farther away, until she took her dad's gun and ended it. There was no goodbye to any of us, just no more Rhee."

By the end of Tina's story, Rory and Amy were holding each other, Rose and Jack were holding each other, Clara was holding Twelve who was just broken inside, the Warrior, the Songstress, and the Shaman were in a tight hug sobbing uncontrollably. Nine couldn't feel. Ten let the tears run silently. Eleven was sobbing uncontrollably. Ai was clinging to River while both sobbed and refused to look at the grave. Danny was saluting the grave like the solider he was, but tears were also silently falling down his face.

"We have to stop this from happening," Nine said firmly.

"But we can't go messing with time like that," Clara said as she released Twelve.

"No," Ten said. "We have to."

"'Save my best friend from herself,'" Ai repeated Todd's words. "'She needs him as much as he needs her.' That's what Todd told me. He could remember the Time line we're from."

"What are you going on about?" Tina said. "She killed herself."

"No!" Twelve said, brows in 'Attack mode.' "We are going to save her!"

"Now!" the Doctors shouted as Eleven took the paper from Ai.

"Follow me!" he shouted as he stormed into his TARDIS.

March 25th 2017, Rhee was climbing down the stairs outside to go for her walk. "Be back, Sis!" she shouted up the steps. She put her head phones and started to walk, but little did she know that 17 pairs of eyes were watching her intently. 16 of those pairs waited to see who was going to stop her. While they watched, a skinny man popped out from the bushes.

"R-," was all he got out before the Ninth Doctor had tackled him. Once Rhee had disappeared into the rift that carried her off to the Doctor, Nine let go of the man. "Who the hell are you?"

"I should be asking you that?!" Nine growled as the others joined.

"Micheal," Twelve growled.

"I don't know you geezer!" Micheal shouted.

"But we know you!" Ten roared. "And what you did to Rhee!"

"What'd he do to her?" Nine asked.

"Only what that slut deserves!" Micheal bit out. That was all it took for Nine to lose his cool and punch Micheal.

"She is the most amazing woman in all of creation!" Nine shouted.

"She's just a good lay and I see that she laid you," Micheal said smugly. Twelve was the one that stepped up and punched Micheal, this time.

"She is better than that!" Amy screamed.

"But it doesn't matter now," Micheal said. "She's gone."

"Yeah," Ten said. "She's gone home." Eleven and Ten wanted their turn punching the thing that dare insult Rhee/Lady, they pulled back and punched Micheal so hard that he passed out. Ai stepped forward.

"You have a woman to go back to," she said as she put a hand on Ten and Eleven. "We'll take care of this piece of filth."

"Don't worry," River said. "We won't kill him."

"Maim maybe," the Songstress said.

"Put in the hospital for the foreseeable future," the Warrior said with an evil grin that the Doctors had seen on Lady's face many times.

"But definitely not kill," the Shaman added.

"Do you have a way back?" Rose asked. River and the Warrior showed their Vortex Manipulators.

"Got that covered," the Warrior grinned. "Now off with ya!" The Doctors and their companions returned to where the TARDIS' are parked.

"You know," Jack said. "That thing wasn't smart enough to understand the dynamics of time, so who helped him?"

"That has been bothering me too," Twelve said.

"It is concerning," Ten said. "However most of us are going to forget this."

"Yes," Nine said.

"But I can still look into this," Twelve said.

"You can trust us to figure this out," Carla said.

"She's my best mate," Danny said. "I'll do anything to find out who's behind this!"

"Thanks, mate," Jack said. Danny, Carla, and Twelve left in Twelve's TARDIS.

"Well this is goodbye," Rose said. "It's nice to know that the Doctor and Lady have such good mates in the future." Nine, Rose and Jack got into Nine's TARDIS, shortly there after it fanished.

"I can't wait to see Lady again!" Amy exclaimed as she skipped happily back to Eleven's TARDIS.

"I'll just follow-" Rory said nervously. "Bye." He followed Amy.

"Rose always did know just what to say," Eleven said as he followed Rory, Eleven's TARDIS disappeared.

"I guess we should leave now too," Martha said.

"Yeah," Ten said as they left in his TARDIS.

The moment they were back into the Vortex, the Doctor felt the bond again. Joy over took him, he ran straight to the library, where Lady lay on the couch fast asleep. He couldn't help himself, he ran to her and pulled her sleeping form into a hug. "You know if I get this kind of hug every time I fall asleep in the library I'm going to have to fall asleep here more often," she teased, as she wrapped her arms around him. His body started to tremble as he cried. "What's wrong, Love?"

"I don't know," he said between sobs. "Can we just say like this?"

"Do you even have to ask?" she replied softly.

The next day, the Doctor woke up to an empty bed and a sense of dread filled him. He got up and tried to clear the sleep from his brain so he could focus. He sighed in relieve when he felt Lady and the twins. He got out of bed and went to the shower. But then a thought accrued to him that disturbed him, the emotions he was feeling were unfounded. He couldn't remember why he had been so happy to see Lady, or why he was so afraid not to feel her and the twins. After his shower and he was dressed, he walked to the twin's room. He found the twins, Martha, and Lady singing and dancing. He smiled as he leaned on the door frame.

"Daddy!" Mel shouted as she rushed at him. "You sleep too long!"

"Mel that was rude," Lady scolded.

"You're right, little one," the Doctor said as he picked up Mel, and gave her a tight hug. "But your mum's right too, that was rude."

"Rude and not ginger!" Mel exclaimed.

"Martha," Lady said. "Will you watch over the twins for a while, I want to talk with my bondmate alone."

"Of course," Martha said happily.

"Mummy," Mel said as she climbed out of the Doctor's arms. "Can we go watch the Avengers?"

"Oh, please Mum!" JT exclaimed.

"Only if Martha wants too," Lady said.

"I don't mind," Martha said.

"Yay!" the twins exclaimed, as they drug Martha to the media room. The Doctor and Lady laughed as they watched the twins.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" the Doctor asked. She launched herself at him, pressing her lips to his, kissing him with urgency and love. She ran her hands through his hair. He responded after he recovered from the shock. They backed up until they hit the door across the hall, not breaking the kiss he opened the door and they backed into the room. The door shut on its own, as they hit the bed. They broke the kiss for just a moment, long enough to remove their shirts. Well in his case it was suit jacket, tie, shirt and under shirt. Their lips found each other again.

He broke the kiss again to kiss down her body, pulling her bra down so it was still on her but her breast were exposed for him to play with. And he did just that. He took one nipple into his mouth, while he pinched the other between his fingers. She moaned loudly as she ran her hands through his hair. He used his free hand to scratch down her back, which caused her to moan louder. He stopped playing with her breast, and removed her pants and underwear. He stood back up and kissed her, with the same urgency that started this. She moaned in his mouth as he slipped two fingers into her. She was so wet for him that they slid in without much resistance.

He pulled back, much to her dismay. He turned her around and bent her over the bed. He took his pants and underwear off, freeing his shaft. He swiftly plunged into her core from behind. She nearly screamed in pleasure as he entered her. He paused a moment, even though it was for him to stop, but they hadn't done anything in a while so he knew she would need a moment. She pushed him into her deeper, which was all the permission he needed. He thrust into her with force. "Oh, fuck!" she moaned. "Yes!" He moaned and grunted, as he pounded her in a chaotic rhythm. But neither of them cared.

"Mine!" he yelled as he felt himself getting close already.

"Doctor!" she screamed as she came, which pushed him over the edge and he came too. He pulled out and smirked at her. She grinned at him in return. "Good talk."

"Brilliant talk," he said.

"What I really wanted to talk about was maybe dropping the twins off with Mum," she said.

"Maybe after we enjoy more of our original conversation," he teased as he lightly pushed her down, so that she fell back onto the bed. "I was rather enjoying myself." He climbed on top of her.

Media room, after Avengers. "Mummy and Daddy are acting weird," JT stated.

"I know what you mean, JT," Mel said.

"Well your mum and dad are strange people," Martha said.

"Daddy was so disturbed when he came back from his adventure with you," JT said.

"And Mummy was crying when we woke up," Mel said. "Mummy is the happiest person we know. What happened on your adventure?"

"The usual," Martha said. "Stopped a madman from destroying the world."

"Are you sure?" JT asked. "Because you're crying."

"I am?" Martha asked, as she reached up and wiped the tear from her cheek. "I wonder why I'm doing that."

"Maybe a time line was erased," Mel said.

"What?" Martha said.

"When a time line is erased," JT started.

"It can leave impressions on the people involved," Mel continued.

"Those impressions, can be but are not limited to;" JT explained. "Uncontrollable emotions, a sense of something missing, and/or doing things you don't know why you are."

"Like you crying just now," Mel said. "Or going to a room and not knowing why you did it."

"I do that a lot," Martha said.

"But that worries me," Mel said.

"I know," JT said.

"I don't think every time I do that it's a time line being erased," Martha said.

"No," Mel said. "We're concerned about what was erased."

"It had to directly involve, Mummy and Daddy," JT said.

"Why?" Martha asked.

"Because," Mel said. "They are effected more than you or us."

"I don't feel it at all," JT said.

"Nor do I," Mel said.

"So just the adults," Martha said.

"But who knows if it won't effect us in the future," JT said.

"That's right," Mel said. "Because since time isn't a line it could effect us later."

"Not a line?" Martha asked.

"Time isn't the way you humans think about it," JT said.

"From a non-linear non-subjective view point," Mel said.

"Time's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey... stuff," JT finished.

"Brilliant there brother dear," Mel teased.

"I dare you to do better!" JT exclaimed.

"I know!" Mel exclaimed as she ran out and came back with a few dozen different colored pieces of yarn. She laid them on the table in straight lines. "This is the way humans see time lines. Cause." She pointed to one end of the yarn. "Effect." She pointed to the other side. "Now this;" She picked up the yarn and made a multicolored ball of yarn. "Is how a time traveler sees time."

"Jumping from one point to another with ease," JT said as he pointed to a green piece of yarn then to a red piece of yarn.

"Wow," Martha said. "But if that is true then wouldn't erasing a time line cause the whole thing to fall apart."

"No," the Doctor said as he and Lady entered the room. "Though good analogy, little ones." He walked over to Mel. "See the difference is that time is fluent, so it will repair itself."

"But what started this conversation, my sweets?" Lady asked.

"We noticed that you and Daddy were acting weird," JT said.

"We think a time line was erased," Mel said.

"That would explain it," the Doctor said.

"My smart babies," Lady said proudly. "I love you."

"Love you, Mummy!" the twins exclaimed as they got hugged by their parents.

"How would you two feel about a trip to Grammy's?" Lady asked. They cheered.

Notes: I'm terribly sorry about the wait. But I hope it was worth it. I have been in a rut and I'm finding it hard to do much of anything here of late and this Chapter may reflect that rut and I'm sorry if it does. Let me know what you think thanks!
