Title: Don't Blink My Wayward Sons
"Doctor! It's getting away!"
"I know, I know! Keep up Rory!"
"Why does this thing gotta be so fast?!"
"Its fast because its wounded! It knows we'll catch it, so its running," The Doctor yelled to his companions, "and we most defiantly have to catch it before it can reach someone else!"
"Did you hear that, Dean?"
"Hear what?"
"I've could've swore I heard someone yell 'Doctor',"
"Maybe we're hunting a ghost and its one of those residual things still going on,"
Sam grimaced as the two brothers continued to walk, their flashlights leading the way. They turned into an broken doorway.
"Whoa, now that's creepy,"
In front of them was an angel statue. It's arm were slightly down, revealing a scary looking face, its left wing was broken. The two were about to walk towards it when three other people burst in from the other side of the room. Dean instantly recognized them.
"Hey, you are the guys from earlier!"
"This feels like Ghost facers all over again,"
"Look...," The raggedy man lifted his arm holding a strange thing, its end glowing blue and a whirring sound came from it, "you two, slowly turn around and walk backwards towards me,"
One of Dean's eyebrow lifted, "and why sound we do that?"
"Because its right behind you,"
1 day earlier...
Amy plopped down on a chair, watching the Doctor do his thing around the controls of the Tardis, "Where are we going now, Doctor?"
"Ohio!" He proclaimed happily.
"Ohio?" Rory asked as he walked in the room, rubbing his eyes and giving out a yawn, "You mean the state, right?"
"Yes, Rory, the state...How many other Ohio's are out there?" The Doctor gave him a look before turning his back. Rory just shrugged.
"Well, you guys told me about the Starship UK, so I thought maybe there's like another planet or something of that sort named Ohio,"
"No, no, Rory...Where we going, it's the only Ohio you'll ever see...unless you meet someone named Ohio, then that will be your second," The Doctor pulled on the main lever and the Tardis headed to it's new direction. Amy jumped up from her spot and pulled down the computer screen. She noticed they were headed towards a red blinking light. The Doctor appeared beside her.
"You're probably why we are going to Ohio of all places, why Ohio and not New Jersey, or some other state, well in other words, I have received a distress signal coming from the city of Cincinnati!"
"A Distress signal? From whom?" Rory peered at the screen behind the two.
"That...I do not know, I never received this type before...I've gotten Daleks, Cyberman, even one from the headless monks! But whoever or what this is, I never received a call from them...strange, isn't it?"
"What if it's a trap?" Amy said, casting a worried glance at Rory.
The Doctor sat down in his chair, leaning back with a smile, "Well, that'll be fun wont it?"
Trees went by in a blur as Dean drove by in his impala. Sam was in the passenger, checking his phone for any messages or updates on recent things. He was scrolling through when he noticed a missing persons report from Cincinnati.
"Hey Dean, Listen to this, '12 people have gone missing in the course of five days. Reports says they were all last seen at Spring Rose Commentary when they disappeared. There are no signs of any struggles or blood anywhere near the commentary,'"
"Huh," Dean grunted, "What do you think?"
"Could be a ghoul, but wouldn't they find signs of the people being dragged underground?"
"Don't know, Sammy," Dean casted a glance at his brother, "These things can get smarter...best we check it out,"
Sam gave a nod in agreement and they were on their way. Luckily for them, they were already in Ohio, but were headed the other way. With a rough U-turn, the two made their way to Cincinnati.
It wasn't long till the reached their destination. With a quick change, the two brothers were in their FBI suits. They got out of the vehicle and took a look around. Cincinnati looked like any normal city, despite having 12 people missing. Dean nudged Sam and the two started to walk.
The brothers found an info booth, next to it was a blue telephone box. Dean stared at it, while Sam got information from the clerk.
"So, all you got to do, is go down this street," The clerk said, pointing at the map Sam held out, "Take a left here, a right, and there's the Cemetery...but I wouldn't go there, too many people going missing...,"
"Thanks," Sam said quickly, folding up the map and giving Dean a small push to start going.
"Dude, did you see that phone booth? It was blue...,"
"Technically it's a police box,"
"What the hell is a police box?"
"It's like a phone booth, but you use it to call the police directly,"
"Huh,"
The two followed the directions the clerk gave them, as they walked the streets, they took note of everything. Stores, people, even animals, in case anything can be a danger. As they got closer, they could see the iron fence that surrounds the graveyard. Sam stared over the road at the commentary till Dean nudged him in the side.
Dean pointed to a café beside them, "Let's go eat,"
The Doctor leaned forward in his chair, eating a huge burger, "Tfis higs delizous!" he said with his mouthful and a slight smile. Rory grimaced at him as food had spilled from his mouth as he spoke.
"I told you not to get the king size," Amy grumbled at him.
Taking a big swallow, the Doctor grinned, "But Amy! What good is it coming to America, visiting a café like this and NOT trying this huge burger?!"
"Easy," She replied as she took a bite out of her chicken salad with a side of fries.
"Well, at least you got a burger, Rory...what is it anyways?" The Doctor inquired.
"Blue cheese and spinach,"
The Doctor grimaced, "ew,"
The three ignored the ringing of the bell as some new customers entered the café. Rory turned a bit to face one of them as he heard one say 'Oh man, look at the size of the burger,'. Rory took note that both of them wore black suits and the taller one with the longer hair just took off a pair of black glasses.
"Looks like the men in black just walked in," Rory joked to himself.
The Doctor choked on his latest bite, Amy quickly took his burger away and handed him his glass of water, which in turn, he chugged it down. He coughed a bit, "I'm fine, I'm fine..."
"I told you not to get that and look, you almost choked on it," Amy growled. The Doctor waved her off.
"No, no...it wasn't that, it was what Rory had said,"
The Doctor and Amy both turned their heads at Rory, who stared back at them.
"What did you say, Rory?" Amy inquired.
"I...uh...I said that it looks like the Men in Black just walked in," he slowly repeated.
"Psh...like those guys are...," Amy stopped herself from completing her sentence when she turned to the Doctor, "ARE the Men in Black real?"
"Oh yes, they are actually humanoid aliens that hunt down illegal aliens that enter the united states, only the states though, because they are the only ones who'll pay their sum,"
"What's their payment?" Amy asked.
"Who pays them?" Rory asked at the same time.
The Doctor gave them a look before speaking, "a few cows...not sure if they went up on the price last time I checked...and probably Area 51," he shrugged afterwards before straitening out his bowtie and taking another bite of his burger. Amy just sighed.
"Well excuse me boys," she said as she got up, she wasn't looking when she bumped into someone, "Oh I'm so sorry," she glanced up to see a man who was taller then her and his hair was half of her own hair and he was wearing a black suit to boot, 'I guess this was the Man in Black Rory was talking about,'
"Oh no, it was my fault," he replied. He stared at her for a few moments, "I hope you don't mind, but are you from around here?"
"Nope, I'm just a tourist from Scotland, here...with my friends," She replied quickly, causing a quirk of the mans eyebrow in response. He relaxed a bit and smiled at her.
"That's nice,"
"Sam!" the two glance over to see a shorter man slightly glaring at the other man.
"Sorry, I got to go, and once again, I'm sorry for running into you," and with that he left with the other man who carried a to-go box.
"Did you see that girl back there?" Sam asked.
"Who the red head? Not my type," Dean replied while munching on some fries. Sam frowned at his brother.
"I was not talking about that, she replied a bit too quickly when I asked her where she was from, seemed a bit nervous about that for some reason and did you see one of those guys? He was wearing a bow tie and suspenders,"
Dean stopped walking, "Are we talking like legit old man style?"
"Yeah,"
"Dude...no young person would wear that...gotta be something, I would say ghost, but if that girl was talking to him..."
"Yeah...I probably should've ask how long they were here,"
"Most likely,"
The two were able to grab a motel room near the cemetery and waited for night to fall for them to begin their investigation.
The Doctor led the way, pointing everywhere he can point with his sonic screwdriver. Amy and Rory fell behind him wielding flashlights, lighting their path. Amy grumbled in her mind on why they were walking through a cemetery at night. Her light went past several tombstones, stone statues of Mary, a few monoliths, even an angel statue. Amy stopped in her steps, slowly turning a bit to her right, the light from her flashlight revealing a familiar ugly face. She stared wide-eyed at the Weeping Angel that stood before her, its hands were below its face as it stared at her with it lifeless eyes. Amy took note that one of its wings was broken at the top.
"Doctor?"
A new light came upon her, causing her to blink.
"Oh no," she whispered as the light dimmed down and the angel was gone.
"What's wrong, Amy?" The Doctor asked taking a glance to where Amy was staring at.
"There was a weeping angel right there!"
"WHAT?" The Doctor yelped, "Oh dear...maybe, just maybe, the thing we are looking for is cornered by this angel you saw,"
Amy shook her head, "I actually don't think that's it,"
The Doctor raised an eyebrow at her, "Is that so?"
Amy nodded, "I noticed that it had a broken wing...,"
The Doctor placed his hands in deep thought, "a distress signal from something I never got a call from...a wounded weeping angel, people disappearing without a trace...OF COURSE!" he started to pace in a circle, "This Weeping Angel here is most likely like stuck in this cemetery due to it's injury...how it was injured...we'll never know! But as it stays here and as people come here and enter its path, it send them back in time to feed off the time energy in hopes to heal its wing!"
"C-can it do that?" Rory asked.
"Of course!" The Doctor gave Rory an incredulous look, "Time Energy can heal about anything!"
There was a snap noise in the distance and two flashlights swiveled in the same direction. There it was, the Weeping Angel, it's face was calm and the Doctor could feel sadness coming from it, it's arm was outstretched towards them, as if it was asking for help. Suddenly there a sound of a gunshot in the distance, causing the three to jump in alarm and the angel was gone.
"After it!" The Doctor yelled. They ran in the direction they hoped the angel went, leading them to an abandoned Caretaker building.
Sam and Dean jumped over the fence when they were sure that the caretaker had gone home for the night. With flashlights attached to their shotguns, they made their way among the old tombstones. The wind rustled the leaves that laid on their path.
"So, what exactly are we hunting?" Dean asked, taking a look around the current area.
"I'm not sure,"
"Damn it, Sammy! I count on you to usual figure this stuff out!" Dean growled, when he suddenly he stopped. For a moment he thought he heard voices in the distance, there was a snap and he turned so fast, he accidently pressed the trigger of the shotgun, causing it to fire.
"Dean!" Sam yelled.
"Sorry," Dean shrugged.
Sam sighed at his brothers carelessness when he noticed a building nearby, "Come on, let's go check out that place,"
"Alright,"
The two made their way in what was an abandoned caretaker house.
"Doctor! It's getting away!"
"I know, I know! Keep up Rory!"
"Why does this thing gotta be so fast?!"
"Its fast because its wounded! It knows we'll catch it, so its running," The Doctor yelled to his companions, "and we most defiantly have to catch it before it can reach someone else!"
"Did you hear that, Dean?"
"Hear what?"
"I've could've swore I heard someone yell 'Doctor',"
"Maybe we're hunting a ghost and its one of those residual things still going on,"
Sam grimaced as the two brothers continued to walk, their flashlights leading the way. They turned into an broken doorway.
"Whoa, now that's creepy,"
In front of them was an angel statue. It's arm were slightly down, revealing a scary looking face, its left wing was broken. The two were about to walk towards it when three other people burst in from the other side of the room. Sam instantly recognized them.
"Hey, you're the people from the café!"
"This feels like Ghost facers all over again,"
"Look...," The raggedy man lifted his arm holding a strange thing, its end glowing blue and a whirring sound came from it, "you two, slowly turn around and walk backwards towards me,"
One of Dean's eyebrow lifted, "and why sound we do that?"
"Because its right behind you,"
The two brothers turned to see the angel statue right behind them, "What the hell?" Dean cursed, aiming his gun.
"NO! No, no, no, noooo," the other man said, "Do not shoot, just back away you two, just come to me backwards,"
Sam looked at his brother who gave a slight nod and the two backed up till the other man was standing in front of them waving his glowing blue stick around.
"So, you gonna tell us what the hell is going on here? How in the world did a statue move? and who are you?" Dean growled.
"Hello, I'm the Doctor and this creature standing before us is an alien life form known as a Weeping Angel,"
"Wait...you are saying that is an alien? Like tiny green men from mars?" Dean asked. The Doctor rolled his eyes, knowing his companions were watching the angel.
"Yes, an alien...a creature that only moves when its not being looked at from another thing, like us, and when you get touched by these Weeping Angels, well, they send you back in time and feed on the time energy you left behind,"
"Wait, so this thing can send us back in time?" Sam asked.
"Didn't I just explain that? YES! Now let me work!" The Doctor looked over his shoulder at the brothers, then back at the angel, taking a few steps towards it, "Hello there, I'm the Doctor, you've probably already heard of me...I've received your distress signal in my Tardis and I've come here to help you..."
There was silence before he spoke again, "Ok, everyone...I want you all to blink at the same time,"
"What?!" His companions said at the time.
"Rory, Amy, just trust me...and you two if you'll please, ok, on three, one, two, three!"
On command, all five of them close their eyes to open them again to see the angel standing before the Doctor. A big grin grew on his face, "Ah ha! I knew it wouldn't attack!"
"Are you telling me, that you based that on a whim?!" Amy yelped.
The Doctor shrugged, "It was a fifty-fifty chance...anyways, Mr. or Mrs. Weeping Angel, I've got some time energy for to take for food and it's my Tardis, its right down on Canel Street, just go on over and stand there, the energy from my Tardis should heal your wing quite nicely...ok everyone, on the count of one, blink, and one!"
The group blinked and the angel was gone.
"Phew, that was a close call," The Doctor twirled around, "Wasn't that interesting, Amy? Rory?"
The brother laid there guns, "So that thing wasn't a threat?"
"Oh, it was, it was also what made those people disappear,"
"Then why you let it go?!" Sam said.
"Because I'm not one to kill without any purpose, plus I answered a distress call, so why should I hurt a wounded creature that asked for my help?"
Dean felt a little guilty at his statement, "Ok, ok, I get you,"
"Well, it was nice meeting youuuu-,"
"Dean,"
"Sam,"
"Great!" The Doctor clapped his hands and held out a piece of paper, "I know our meeting was short and we probably have to go our separates ways now, but here," Dean took the piece of paper and read it, it said 'Doctor - Time Lord - Need help? Call: XXXXX-XX-XXX'
"A calling card?" Amy asked, looking over Deans shoulder.
"I got some recently to give to people I meet on my way, in case they ever need help," The Doctor replied.
"Ok," Sam said, "Well...this has been kind of weird and I'm just gonna take my brother and go,"
"All right, you two, ever need help, just give me a ring," The Doctor waved gleefully at them as they left.
"Well, that was weird," Dean said as they reached the impala, "Hey Sam?"
"Yeah?"
"Ever heard of a Time Lord before?"
