I don't own anything from Doctor Who, and I hope you enjoy!
The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver and began scanning all of the worms as they stepped closer to them. They all came from that bug worm that was causing the hole problems. They needed to make a name for that. "Clara, what do you think we should call the parent of all of these worms?" He asked.
Her eyes widened as she asked, "You mean all of these came from that big worm?" He nodded. "Wow, someone works fast. What about… Big Daddy?"
He nodded and said, "Yeah that would fit the description. But the question is, who is Big Momma?" He scanned around some more and found DNA for Big Momma. "Uh oh, that's not good. Okay, two gigantic worms causing giant holes to appear in random places on earth, and making lots of worm babies. No big deal." Clara gave him a look that said, 'No big deal?!' He nodded and said, "Fine, big deal."
She nodded too and asked, "What do we do about it? You're the man with all of the plans, so get to planning!"
He stopped walking as he stepped on a worm. He made a disgusted face as he tried to wipe it off on the mud, and Clara giggled at him. He frowned and said, "Don't laugh at me! I'm the man with all of the plans, remember? I meant to do that. Now, where did these come from? They certainly didn't come from Earth."
Clara looked in horror at all of the worms around her. "Um, Doctor, if all of these worms are offspring of Big Daddy and Big Momma, doesn't that meant they will someday become Big Daddy's and Big Momma's?"
He looked at them too and said, "Oh, yes, that's correct. We need to get them out of here and to where they belong. But where is that?" He took off his shoe, the one he stepped on a worm with, and scanned it with the sonic. "Oh, of course this isn't going to tell me! These were made on earth, so we need to find the parents."
He turned around and started walking back to where they had come from. Clara followed and asked, "Where you going?"
He said, "Back to the TARDIS. I'm going to use her database to search up 'Big worm planet.'" He grabbed the harness and strapped it on. He gestured for Clara to go to him so he could strap her on too.
As she was being strapped on she asked, "You can actually do that? Like using Google, but with much more accurate answers?" He nodded and she said, "Wow, that's so cool!"
When they finally made their way to the top of the hole and took off the harness, The Doctor immediately ran to the TARDIS. Before he could flip any switches and do timey wimey things, she grabbed his hands. He looked at her and asked, "What are you doing? I need to find out where Big Daddy is…" She kissed him before he could finish. She just couldn't resist. She loved the feel of his lips against hers.
He immediately gave in and deepened the kiss quickly. Clara was lying against the control panel again, but this time a lever actually moved. She didn't worry about it, and she pulled him even closer. He was tugging at her coat when they suddenly heard the TARDIS give off a loud noise. They looked up and realized that the door had shut and they were traveling in time and space.
The Doctor frowned and let go of Clara as he started messing with the controls. She frowned even more than him when he let go of her. She certainly would take being in his arms rather than anywhere else. He asked, "Did you mess with any of the buttons?"
She looked at the control panel to clarify that she had moved one of the levers. "I think I accidently flipped one of the levers when I lied against it."
He looked at it and said, "No, no, no, no, no, that's not good!" He was frantically moving around it now, trying to fix it by pushing more buttons. "We need to stop this somehow!"
She looked around and asked, "What did I do?"
He looked at her and saw the look on her face. He walked over to her and gently squeezed one of her arms. "No, no, no, don't feel bad. It wasn't your fault! All you accidently did was send us to the center of the earth!"
A horrified look came across her face. "I what?! Does that mean I've pretty much killed us?!"
He shook his head and turned his attention back to the control panel. "No, all I have to do is get us out of here before it gets so hot in here that we'll melt. She should be able to block off the heat enough to give us enough time."
She slowly nodded and then asked, "She?"
"The TARDIS of course. Have you never heard me refer to her as she?" He said looking at her momentarily.
In that moment she saw all of the worry evident on his face. He wasn't sure if they were going to get out of there alive. She nodded and said, "Yeah, I just didn't remember for a sec. Doctor, are we going to get out of this alive?" He looked at her and he couldn't hide it. Worry was there, and there was a lot of it.
He came over and kissed her forehead. "Of course we are Clara, and no matter what happens don't blame yourself!" She looked like she wanted to cry. She was going to blame herself, how could she not? It was her fault, she need to blame herself.
"Just please keep us alive." She said. She gulped down her tears and turned away. She couldn't look him in the eye right now if she could have possibly killed them. She started pacing around. She felt it start to get hot, and she began to worry even more. She had caused this, just because she couldn't hold back. "Why am I such an idiot?!" She had accidently said that out loud.
The Doctor came up behind her and said, "Clara, you are not an idiot. You are smart, clever, and wonderful. I told you not to blame yourself, so please don't!" She felt a warm feeling in her chest as she heard him say all of those things. He kissed her again on the forehead, and then he turned back to the controls.
She smiled to herself, and then she stepped toward the door. She felt it getting cooler and she heard The Doctor yell, "We're not out of here yet! Get away from the door!" She backed away, and then she smiled as she heard him yell, "Yes!"
He ran up to her, picked her up, and spun her around. "Whoa, down boy!"
He put her down and blushed slightly as he said, "I did it! Ah ha, I am a genius!" He spun on his heel in a circle and then kissed her forehead again.
She put her hands around his neck as she said, "What is with all this kissing on the forehead? My mouths under my nose, you know that right?" He smiled as she pulled him in for more snogging. When they pulled away she smirked and said, "You know what? I don't really mind this being a snog box, as long it's us that's doing the snogging."
He sighed and said, "It's not a snog box! She gets upset when you call her that!" He patted the rail beside him.
She said, "You're being weird again."
He shrugged and said, "I guess being weird is just part of my life." She smiled and pulled him to her again.
I hope you enjoyed, and please comment to tell me what you think!
