The next day The Doctor walked around a lower class neighborhood and he had AL walking behind him. AL had her hands in the pockets of her overalls. She removed her hands to adjust her goggles and she shook The Doctor's arm getting his attention.

"What?" He asked her and she frowned.

SL*Anything?*SL AL signed curiously and The Doctor shrugged.

"Yeah I am getting a faint signal from one of the houses on this street. Seems to be coming from 'that' one."

AL then motioned for him to look down and he saw her pointing to a opening, small enough for an animal. The Doctor grinned and slapped her shoulder.

"I knew there was a reason I kept you around!" The Doctor stated and AL shot him an unamused expression. The Doctor poke his head near the door only to see the small flap lift up and the blonde girl from the night before was on the other side of it.

The girl opened the door and stared at The Doctor while AL bit her lip in amusement.

"What are you doing here?" The Doctor asked suddenly and AL rolled her eyes and shook her head. Rose Tyler noticed her behind The Doctor and looked at her curiously.

"I live here…" Rose mentioned carefully making AL smirk.

"Well what would you do that for?" The Doctor asked and this time AL smacked a hand to her face in exasperation. Rose smirked over at the younger girl.

"Because I do! I'm only at home because somebody blew up my job!" Rose glared at The Doctor who frowned looking at his device again.

"I must have gotten the wrong signal. You're not plastic are you?" He reached forehead and poke Rose in the head. "Nope bonehead. Bye then…AL let's go…"

Rose frowned at him and grabbed his arm before he could walk away.

"You, inside right now." Rose ordered him and she looked over at AL. "You too…inside."

AL grinned and hurried into the small housing complex.

"Who is it?" An older females voice came from an open doorway. AL poked her head around the doorway curiously as The Doctor came to stand beside her.

"It's about last night. He's part of the inquiry. We'll just be ten minutes!" Rose answered the older woman that had similar features to Rose.

"She deserves compensation." The woman looked at The Doctor.

"Oh we're talking millions." The Doctor muttered not really paying attention to what was happening around him.

"I'm in my dressing gown." The woman looked at The Doctor and AL thought it was a weird look.

"Yes you are." The Doctor casually and the woman tried again.

"There's a strange man in my bedroom."

"yes there is…" The Doctor admitted her point and the woman tried once more.

"Anything could happen…"

The Doctor finally looked over at the woman and blinked.

"No. Come on kid let's see the rest of the place." The Doctor grabbed AL's arm and forced her to move with him. He looked back to see her trying very hard not to start making her weird laugh sound. "Quiet…" AL bite her lips together trying to stop herself from doing something stupid.

"Don't mind the mess, do you two want coffee?" Rose asked trying to clean up a bit.

"None for AL, too much of a jolt for her. Me I'll take mine with milk." The Doctor looked around the living room.

"We should go to the police. Seriously both of us." Rose was still cleaning up and The Doctor picked up a magazine scoffing at an article.

"That won't last, he's gay and she's an alien…" He muttered to himself and saw AL's confused expression. "Explain later."

"I'm not blaming you, even if it was just some sort of joke that went wrong." Rose still didn't notice that AL was watching The Doctor's antics amusedly as he flipped through a book.

"Sad ending…" He tossed the back away already bored and AL just grinned at him in disbelief. She looked around and saw a television set and became curious so she hit a button and it turned on making her startle slightly and The Doctor shut it off for her and gave her a scolding look. "Don't touch things that aren't yours…" AL gave him a look that said 'are you serious'? He thought about it and looked at the magazine, then the book. "Right…I'm doing it too aren't I?" AL nodded trying not to grin at him in humor and he rolled his eyes before he spotted a mirror and hurried to it.

"The news says they found a body." Rose mentioned still cleaning up the hallway and went to finish the coffee.

"Could've been worse, but look at the ears…" The Doctor pouted then looked over at AL. "Why didn't you tell me my ears were like this?" He asked and AL was just more confused.

"All the same Wilson was a nice bloke." Rose was still oblivious to the antics between The Doctor and AL.

"Luck be a lady…" The Doctor tried to shuffle some cards and they went flying everywhere making AL roll her eyes. "Maybe not…"

"I mean if we go to the police…I want to know what to say. I want you to explain everything." Rose finished up cleaning and the started to bring the coffee out.

AL suddenly pointed to the flap in the door that had moved and The Doctor saw it swing slightly.

"Do you have a pet?" The Doctor asked worriedly.

"Nope…" Rose admitted and AL's face got worried also.

Suddenly a plastic arm from the department store launched up and grabbed The Doctor by the throat. AL's eyes widened in panic and made a grab for the arm. The arm let go of The Doctor long enough to slap AL in the face and went back to strangling The Doctor. AL's face was shocked before it took on a murderous expression and damn near pounced on The Doctor trying to get the arm off of him.

Rose put the coffee tray down near the coffee table and paid no attention to what was happening.

"I told Mickey to toss that thing. You're all the same…give a guy a plastic hand…" Rose looked over and frowned seeing AL gripping at the hands fingers trying to dislodge it from The Doctor's throat. Now Rose seemed concerned. "What is it?" Rose asked and AL finally got the arm off of her friend and drop kicked the damn thing away.

The arm stopped in the air and grabbed Rose by her face and AL paled in guilt. The Doctor rolled his eyes and pulled out his sonic screwdriver touched it to the arm and it stopped moving long enough for the Doctor to stab the screwdriver into its palm killing it.

"It's all right. I stopped it. There you go, see, harmless." The Doctor grinned and Rose shot him a scathing look.

"Oh you think?" Rose snapped and used the arm to slap The Doctor in the head with it.

"OW!" The Doctor whined holding his head. "She's the one that kicked it to you!" He motioned to AL who glowered at him this time.

AL tapped Rose on the shoulder. Rose looked over at the younger girl. AL made a motion with her hand, asking for the arm. Rose handed the arm over to her and AL used the arm to slap the Doctor again.

"STOP HITTING ME!" The Doctor complained and Rose grinned at AL.

"Oh, I like you…" Rose admitted making AL beam. "Don't talk much do you?" AL just shrugged.
