Chapter 4 Amy's Dream:

Amy stared in horror as the golden gramophone that was attached to the TARDIS console burst into song "Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream, when I want you in my arms When I want you and all your charms,
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream,"

Amy said annoyed "Doctor have you been playing your records again!"

The Doctor ran into the TARDIS over in a tartan scarf dressed in a woolly white coat and wore a battered set of goggles with a grey bowtie he said apologetically "Sorry Amy, just had to help Sir William Parry solve the age old mystery of the Northwest passage,"

The Doctor waddled in and said annoyed "It's not suppose to do that but that is not anything to worry about Amy,"

Then the Doctor roared "But this is very naughty and bad all at once, a big biochemical reaction is taking place within the TARDIS and it could be only one thing one of my selves is regenerating,"

Amy asked curiously "What is regeneration?"

The Doctor said laughing "Time Lords are a lot like caterpillars we trundle along in our life eating drinking and being merry and then we get a new life although we are new we still retain our sense of selves,"

Amy said calmly "Ok I understand,"

The Doctor pulled from his pocket a small silver toaster with bronze whisks and a boiled egg appeared.

"Oh dear this not good bad juju in the vortex,"

He continued scared his face paling by the minute

"Ms. Pond I must take you to the Zero Room,"

Before Amy could object the Doctor took her down a bronze corridor lit by orbs of blue light.

The Doctor went down a silver ladder through a glass hatch and they arrived in a purple circular room with a glowing gold orb that was floating in midair the rest of the room was adorned with tiny silver bells.

Amy said awed "This room is the weirdest I've ever seen,"

The Doctor stared in disbelief at the orb as it stretched into a glowing gold tentacle, with a bright orange cocoon that hung on the end of it.

Amy heard the gentle tinkle of a bicycle bell, and stared in shock as a chestnut bearded man dressed in a grey suit with a red tie appeared as he lopped out off the bike.

Amy said crying "The Master your alive?"

The Master said calmly "I'm charmed that you showing concern for my welfare,"

The Doctor said angrily "How can you be alive!"

The Master said darkly "I've imitated you I was a good Doctor so I thought I would pay you a visit you are getting senile in your old age,"

The Doctor said annoyed "I'm most definitely not senile,"

The Master said calmly "You've had a good innings you said it yourself a Time Lord lives too long and I'm going to do you a favour,"

Amy said scared "What is going on now?"

She stared into wall as a clock appeared from nowhere it appeared to be counting back from 10-1,

The ticks became louder and a large bell chimed the Doctor and the Master stood immobile.

The cocoon exploded showering Amy in orange dust...

Amy turned she noticed she changed into her seven year old self in her blue dressing gown on the front porch and saw the gates open as a man dressed in a beige buttoned coat with dark brown curls with green eyes came.

The man smiled and said happily "Are you Amy Pond?"

Amy replied nervously "Who are you?"

The man replied cheerily "I'm the Doctor Amy want a jelly baby?"

The Doctor handed Amy an orange jelly baby and she sucked on it.

The Doctor said softly "Tell me about your dreams Amy?"

Amy replied quietly "I've dreamt of you I was older, except you where different, you had messy brown hair, big hands and a red bowtie you took on adventures,"

The Doctor said calmly "Do you have a crack in your bedroom wall?"

Amy said timidly "Yes,"

The Doctor said darkly "Those are not dreams you are having but events being transmitted from another life that are coming from the crack,"

The Doctor turned and saw a small balding man with brown eyes in a bright yellow raincoat holding a white dandelion and blowing it slowly.

The man said hoarsely "The Last of the Angels is here,"

In the rain a sinister stone statue of an angel appeared at the raincoat mans side...

Amy asked scared "Who are you?"

The man in the raincoat replied in a hushed voice "I'm the sandman,"

The Doctor implored "Oh he's not the sandman Amy; he's a bad man he took your memories away,"

The Doctor continued "Do you know someone called Sally Sparrow?"

Amy said coolly "She is a friend of Aunt Sharon's she lives two houses away from my house,"

The Doctor said eagerly "Cheerio Amy, we may cross paths again,"
