Amy Pond

Amy Pond lost it. She and the Doctor had only just gone to Skaro when the war had started, Rory had been killed, and they were forced to run again. They had been running ever since, being perpetually catapulted from one time to the next. She hadn't had time even to grieve for her lost husband in all of the chaotic turmoil, and was forced to repress it. But now, the Doctor had lost all of his memories, and she was alone. All of the repressed emotions burst out of her like a geyser and as tears streamed down her cheeks, she let out an ear-shattering screech.

"Ow!" The Doctor whined, rubbing his temples. "What you do that for?"

Amy did not respond. She curled down on the grassy ground amongst the Dalek debris and wrapped her arms around herself. She sobbed silently as her body began to shake violently.

Silently and without hesitation, The Doctor jumped down off the TARDIS roof, doing a tuck roll as he hit the ground. He then got up, brushed off his suit, fixed his bow tie, and walked towards Amy.

Amy's sobbing paused a moment as she felt arms on her shoulders. The actual act of physical contact then brought back another wave of pain and Amy buried her face in the Doctor's jacket. He held her and kept his arms around her, comforting her, protecting her.

But Why? Amy thought. Why was he comforting her if he couldn't even remember her?

Amy slowly peeked her head out of the comfortable warmth of the Doctor and stared up at him. She had been wrong. While the eyes were still as empty as they were before, they were still as kind and compassionate as they had always been. She had not lost him. This was a man who would stop and comfort a person on the street if that is what they needed, even if they were a stranger to him. He was still The Doctor, and nothing would ever change that.

Warmth filled Amy's heart. Here was a man who had lost everything, his entire race, and now his memory too, and yet he was still trying to protect her, even though he didn't remember her. Amy was ready to change that. She would help the Doctor, and helped give him everything he needed through this time. No matter what, she would never abandon him.

"OK, Doctor, Ok! Thanks, pal, but I think it's time to get moving on! C'mon!" Amy said as she got up, reached down and yanked the Doctor up with her.

"Where are we going?" The Doctor asked, with an edge of excitement in his voice.

"In there!" Amy said with a smile, pointing at the TARDIS.

"What? That's a Police Box!" The Doctor exclaimed.

"Snap your fingers!" Amy said.

"What? Why…"

"Just SNAP YOUR FINGERS!" Amy mandated.

The Doctor, doubt etched onto his face, although his eyes sparkled with curiosity, held out his fingers. He paused, put his middle finger and forefinger together and…

SNAP!

The doors to the TARDIS swung open, sending the Doctor's jaw dropping. Then she led him inside and he squealed. He bounced up and down, "It's bigger…"

"On the Inside!" Amy concluded.

The Doctor ran around the console like a child with a new toy. "I feel…" The Doctor thought a moment, desperately searching his empty mind for the right word. "Home."

Amy laughed. "Welcome home then, Doctor. Welcome Home."

Amy smiled and watched the Doctor run around and fiddle with controls, and she happily obliged any questions about the function of the Time And Relative Dimension In Space. But then, he started asking about his past.

"What about me?" He asked. "Who am I, Really?"

Amy frowned. "I don't know much about your past, just about when you met me. I was a little girl, and you were my imaginary friend..." Amy proceeded to recount their adventures together to the Doctor's amazement. She purposely omitted hard bits, like how he destroyed the Time Lords, hoping he would learn when the time was right.

"Okay! Then, let's go! TARDIS…um…activate? I want to find out about my past. Take me to where I need to go…OPENSAYSAME!" The Doctor cried out at the console board.

Amy laughed, "That's not how it works…" but to her astonishment, the TARDIS sound began to undulate as the TARDIS dematerialized and the console board appeared to be running itself. "What?" She gasped.

Then the monitor screen swung down towards them. Auton energy was radiating from it. It began to hum as a picture formed…

Of Course! Amy realized. His head energy must have seeped Auton energy and part of the Doctor's memories into the TARDIS. It will follow through his past, take him from one part of his past to the next until he gets his memory back! But where were the going first.

The Monitor screen burst on and displayed on it was a single name…

"Donna Noble"

Hmmm…A past companion, it has to be! Amy pondered. Well, this is just another adventure with the Doctor. He may have lost his memory but he hasn't lost himself. He will always be the Doctor that I Know and love…

As if to confirm this, the Doctor began giggling excitedly as he experienced travel through time and space. The excitement filled him, and he threw his head back and yelled…

"GERONIMO!"

Classic Doctor, Amy thought with a smile.
