The door leading to the warehouse from the outside was open. It should never be left open like that. I pulled my tesla out and curiously walked through the door. There was sand, books, and rocks scattered throughout the hallway. "Guys," I whispered keeping my tesla pointed towards the second entrance. "There's something wrong. Stay in here." If anyone had protested they were ignored. Using my foot I pushed the door open, when nothing reacted I slowly inched myself in. "Artie! Clauds!" I shouted as I headed to the desk. There was no answer; the entire warehouse was eerily quiet. Upon the desk, amongst the wires, was a small T.A.R.D.I.S blue paper.

The paper was hard to read at first, however, as I stepped closer I was able to make out, 'Turn around Marie.'

Twirling around I was met with someone's chest, before I could figure out who it was, I was picked up and swung around in a bar hug. "Marie!"

"Latimur, put her down!" a stern voice came. When I was let down I instantly found the owner of the voice. Smiling, against his will it seemed, Artie held out a plate of cookies. "And," he added sneaking a glance at Pete, "If these ones end up mysteriously gone like the rest, a certain someone will be on fishing duty again."

"Artie, why do you always assume it was me?" Pete let out between groans.

"Maybe because every time you even think of cookies you get a dazed look in your eyes." Myka replied as she snatched a cookie off the plate when Artie wasn't looking.

"I do no…" Pete started.

Everyone's attention was placed on the door where Rory's head was peeping through the crack. "Sorry, but Doctor would like to know if you're out of commando mode yet?"
Laughing I answered, "Yes, but why did he send you?"

Rory looked down at his feet before he mumbled. "Said I had more experience since I was married to a take charge women." Mere moments after speaking a hand came from behind him and smacked his head. "Why did I get smacked? I was just repeating what he said."

The only answer he seemed to receive was a swift push, he dusted himself off as Amy and the Doctor walked in. Artie kept glancing between them and I, a vein in his forehead was pulsing. He began to search in his bag for something, and then pulled his gun out. He pointed it towards the Doctor, who in return pointed his sonic screwdriver at Artie. I rushed forward and tried to stand between the two, which they made difficult because they kept trying to circle around me to get to each other.

"Artie, Doctor. Put both of those down." They both started to lower their weapons. "Artie these are my friends. Amy, Rory, and the Doctor."

"Doctor who?" Artie asked still clutching his gun.

"Just the Doctor." The Doctor quipped.

Artie started to open his mouth, nut I pointed towards him and the rest. "This is my old team. Artie, Myka, Claudia, and the Cookie snatcher Pete."

"I didn't take any cookies!" Pete tried to defend, as he turned around stuffing a cookie in his mouth.

"Explain that!" I pointed to his mouth.

He quickly wiped his mouth and held up his hands in a mock surrender. "Explain what?"

Artie placed his hands on his forehead, trying to stop his vein from bursting. "Not that we haven't missed you, but why exactly are you here. And why are you here with all of them?"

"I was away helping them with something, when…" Looking around I tried to find Claudia, only to spot her trying to hide behind Pete. "When I received a call requesting I return. It sounded like you guys might need my help."

The room was quiet, Amy was whispering to Rory, Claudia tried to make herself as scarce as possible, Artie was following my gaze to Claudia, and the rest wore confused looks.

Artie cleared his throat which prompted Claudia to come from her hiding spot. "I may have lied, just a teeny bit." Artie gave her a glare. "Ok, maybe I lied a lot. Its…. I've missed you. You basically ran after he died, I thought maybe if you came back, you'd be able to get over it and stay."

"I…I can't come running for every small thing! I told you when I left that I could only come back if it's life or death! Don't you humans understand!" I had to leave; I pushed past Rory and Amy and ran until I was inside the T.A.R.D.I.S library.
