We're finally out of "The Impossible Astronaut"! Yay! "Day of the Moon" time! And here comes the twist.

Running for my life. Not what I'd expected to be doing. Especially not in the deserts of Nevada.

Three black cars were following me. I knew one of them was driven by Canton. This is where things get interesting.

I reached a cliff. And I was not gonna do what River will do. I was not gonna jump off.

I stopped, glancing at the marks on my arms. There were ten on each arm, plus a couple on my face.

Canton got out of his car, gun drawn. He gave me a slight wink. Time to put on a show.

"You don't have to do this, Canton!" I shouted at him.

"Yes, I do, David. America is under threat."

"America's always been under threat! Do you really think that the aliens just dropped out of the sky that night? They've been here all along!"

"They are not the threat. You are."

I did my best to look incredulous.

Two men in suits pulled a body bag out of the car. It was time.

"No. No, no, no. You don't have to do this!"

"Like I said, David. Yes I do."

I shut my eyes, ready.

The gunshot rang out.

THUD! That woke me up.

Canton unzipped the body bag. I climbed out and stretched. "Did you have to be so rough, Canton?"

"Yes. We needed to avoid suspicion."

"Well, you did that alright," I said to him, stretching my arm. "I've got bruises in places I never knew I had."

"These things could really do with air holes!" Rory stated the obvious.

"Never had a complaint before," Canton quipped. I laughed.

"Isn't it gonna look odd that you're staying in here with us?" Amy asked, stepping out of her body bag.

"No, they know there's no way outta here."

"Exactly," the bearded Doctor said, grabbing his suspenders and stretching them. "Whatever they think we're doing in here, they know we're not going anywhere." He let go of his suspenders and flopped to his right. Of course, he hit the cloaked TARDIS. We smiled.

The Doctor snapped his fingers, and the doors opened. "Shall we?"

We all rushed into the TARDIS.

"What about Doctor Song?" Canton asked. "She jumped off a rooftop."

"Don't worry," the Doctor and I said. "She does that."

Amy and Canton went off to investigate the Graystark Hall Orphanage, which left me, River and the Doctor in the TARDIS. River was picking out new clothes, since her dress was ruined by jumping into the swimming pool. This left the Doctor and me alone in the control room.

"No offence, Doctor, but what are we gonna do about Ruby?" I asked.

"Sorry, what?" the Doctor asked, busily fiddling with the controls.

"My sister," I said through clenched teeth. "Those aliens have my sister."

"Ah, yes, right, Ruby! Well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it."

I grabbed his jacket and pulled him towards me. He actually looked scared. Huh. I must be pretty frightening when I'm angry.

"We will not cross that bridge when we come to it. We will cross it now! Ruby is the only family I have left, and I will not abandon her! She is more important to me than the entire universe itself!"

Then it came. I let go of the Doctor and grabbed the right side of my chest, grimacing. I cried out in pain as the cramps took hold.

"What's wrong?" the Doctor asked. He was wary, but concerned.

"It's fine," I shrugged him off, "it's nothing."

"But you're in pain."

"I said it's fine!" I shouted at him, my eyes burning. He backed off, a shocked look on his face.

The pain was subsiding now. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"What was that?" the Doctor asked.

"Just a thing. I get cramps now and then. Mainly when I'm angry. And, in case you didn't notice, I was very angry just then."

The Doctor chuckled nervously. "Yeah, you were."

"I'd better go check on River. She's been a while."

"Y-yeah, you do that."

Narrator

"Gold?" the Doctor murmured to himself as David left the control room. "His eyes were gold. Why?"

He moved to the scanner, punched in David's name. The result came up:

Carter, David

Age: Unknown

Planet of Origin: Unknown

Species: Unknown

Sex: Male

Blood Type: AB

Relatives: Sister Ruby, age unknown.

A picture of David accompanied the results. He looked happy. Happier than he did now.

The fact that the TARDIS computer didn't know David or Ruby's ages, let alone David's planet of origin or species worried the Doctor. He switched to medical scan mode. He found David and did an in-depth scan. The results were unmistakeable.

"But… How?" the Doctor demanded of the scanner, disbelievingly.

CLIFFHANGER! XD

Interesting, eh? Keep on reading to find out more!
