Chapter 6
Back in the TARDIS the Doctor was sat on the pilot chair, glaring at the monitor which told him it was still scanning. Every now and again he would huff with impatience causing Rose to smirk. He was even more fidgety as a teen.
"So" Rose pushed herself away from the coral support and strode over to him, plonking herself down on the chair beside him. He shuffled away from her a bit. "If we find out what this is can we cure you?"
"Dunno" he shrugged
"You 'dunno'?" she mimicked his tone earning herself a glare
"Well it seems to be designed to react while in contact with me. As I'm the only Timelord present and I'm good without a Gallifrey visit, we have to stick with that hypothesis. But I have no idea what could be needed for a cure and I dunno whether I have the ability to make it even if we have all the ingredients"
"What are the chances of you piloting the TARDIS without killing us?"
"60/40"
"60% dying or not dying"
"Not dying. Are those odds good enough for you?"
"If we need to use the TARDIS then yeah"
He raised an eyebrow at her obviously surprised by her faith in him
"Any ideas on a plan then?" she asked
"Not until we get the results."
"How longs that going to take?"
He shrugged leaning backwards to gaze at the ceiling. Rose sighed softly
"If we go to say earth 21st century ish would be able to get back again"
"The odds of surviving are the same, 60/40"
"Ok. Because i….we have some friends who might be able to help"
"More humans just what I need"
"If they can help it'll be worth it."
"You really trust me" shock etched itself into his features
"With my life" she told him
"Well, that's a first" he clapped his hands together and stood up to flick a switch on the TARDIS console "This would be a lot easier if we had a decent TARDIS"
"Don't you want to wait for the scan before we start moving"
"The substance is recognised in her data base so she's doing other scan to identify its make up that'll take a while"
"So 21st century Earth then?"
"That's where this thing went last so it's a theoretically simple"
"I'm going to ignore the theoretical bit"
He smirked but didn't look away from the console
"Hold on tight" he told her kicking the hand break into position then gripping on to the console.
Rose yelped before she dove towards the railings and clung on to the metal bars.
This was going to be a bumpy ride.
