Guys, stop asking for spoilers! I'm not gonna tell you what's going on. You'll just have to read the story to find out what's going on!

The plan was finally going into action. Canton was in Area 51 with Nixon, throwing the Feds off our trail. Nothing like the President of the United States suddenly appearing out of the perfect prison to give you a shock, eh?

The Doctor and River were investigating the spaceman's suit. For some reason, the Doctor insisted on me being there too.

River and the Doctor were speaking their usual tech mumbo-jumbo, so I was stuck with Rory.

"So…" I said to him. "When you were down in that hole, what did River say, exactly? About there being a far worse day to come for her than the Doctor's death?"

"Their timelines are all messed up," Rory explained. "They never meet in the right order. When River first met the Doctor, he knew everything about her. And River said that one day, she'll know everything about him, but he won't know a thing about her."

"And it's gonna kill her," I murmured.

"Yeah. At least, that's what she said."

"Wow."

In Rory's hand, Amy's communication chip continued to gasp in fear in Amy's voice. "Rory, help me."

Then, surprisingly, another voice.

"Amy, it's okay. The Doctor will come for us."

"Ruby!" I shouted, running towards Rory. "Ruby! We're coming for you! I'll keep you safe! I promise!" I knew that she couldn't hear me, but it made me feel better.

I was the first one out of the TARDIS when it landed in Silence HQ. "Hate to break up the party, but you have my sister there." I pointed at the grinning Ruby. "And, though I know she does love to party, I would have preferred it if she'd been invited!"

"Have you seen what's on the telly?" the Doctor asked the suited aliens, carrying a small TV. "Oh, hello Amy, Ruby," he added, nodding to them. "You alright? Wanna watch some television?" He placed the TV on the console, warding off any Silence who tried to stop him.

"Look at me, I'm confident," the Doctor almost purred. Batten down the hatches, the Oncoming Storm draws near. "You'll wanna watch that, me when I'm confident. Oh, and this is my friend River. Nice hair, clever, has her own gun. I know you're team players and all but she'll definitely kill the first three of you."

"Oh, the first seven, easily," River interrupted.

"You should all just listen a minute, because all I really wanna do is accept your total surrender, and then I'll let you go in peace. Yes. You've been interfering in human history for thousands of years."

"People have suffered," I took over, boldly stepping forward. "They have suffered and died."

"But what's the point in having two hearts if you can't be a bit forgiving now and then, eh?"

"Ooh, the Silence," we both said. "So scary."

"Oh, and by the way, the Doctor was lying when he said he was gonna let you go," I shouted.

"First," the Doctor continued, "you tell me about the girl. Who is she? Why is she important? What's she for?"

I glanced at River. Her face remained hard, emotionless.

The Silence chattered angrily.

"Guys, sorry. But you're way out of time. Bit of history for you. Aren't you proud? Because you helped. You know how many people are watching the Moon Landing live on the telly, right across the world? Half a billion. And every single human, in the present and in the future, will look back on this day, and they will never, ever forget it. Oh, but they'll forget this bit," he added, grinning triumphantly.

"It's one small step for man…" Neil Armstrong began on the TV. But he was interrupted by a Silent.

"You should kill us all on sight."

"You've given the order for your own execution," I smiled malevolently.

"And the whole planet just heard you," the Doctor added coldly.

"…one giant leap for mankind."

"And one whacking great kick up the backside for the Silence!" the Doctor and I shouted.

I ran to Ruby, unshackling her as Rory did the same. The Silence lashed out with bolts of electricity, but River started shooting them all down.

"Into the TARDIS! Go, go, go!" the Doctor shouted at us.

We bolted. The TARDIS dematerialised, and we were gone.

A nice, lovely conclusion, don't you think? Well get set, because the truth is about to come out!
