A/N: sorry about the wait, university is kicking my but, but I will update this story as much as often as I can. Thank you to all the amazing reviews and this is it: the big reveal and setting off to the wild blue yonder!

"What do you mean you don't know?" Luke asked as he crossed his arms.

"I mean I kinda know." Jackie replied quickly, "but only a bit. I promised you all an explanation so I only had to say it once. I got a letter from my future self explaining to me what to do, but I can't share the contents with you."

"A letter?" Mickey asked skeptically.

"Yes. On my world a few years back natural disasters started becoming too common. Nearly one a day. My Dad-" she stopped, refusing to show any emotion. "Well you all know him. But he's only human so he couldn't regenerate this time. Died saving half of Brazil. Mum died a bit later in a freak snow storm in the Sarah Desert. You all know what happened last time. All transportation between worlds was cut off. That's where the weird thing happened. A meteor shower hit east London, pretty bad too. I was in South Africa at the time but got there as soon as I could. One of the meteorites opened up and electrocuted us all. Next thing I know I've woken up in this universe on some strange planet.

That's where I met River Song. Dad had just left apparently and that's why I popped up. Time energy and such. It was kind if weird meeting my Stepmom. Aunt. Whatever you want to call it, it isn't exactly a normal family unit. Anyway she wasn't surprised apparently. Handed me the letter and her transporter. Said she was headed out on her new job, looking at this massive planetary library or something, and she'd call me when she was done."

Everyone was silent as they digested this.

"So that's what you meant by pocket universes closing in on themselves." Captain Jack voiced. "So what does that mean for our world?"

"Chain affect." Sky whispered from her corner.

"Exactly." Jackie sighed. "The letter said that its too late to save the pocket universes, but not this one if we find the cause."

"And how so we do that?" Nathan asked.

"Didn't you mention something about stealing a Tardis?" Captain Jack mused.

"Steal a Tardis?" Came a series of voices ranging from surprised to disbelief.

"Well how else to you purpose to figure out the problem?" Jackie huffed.

"How about actually going to the Doctor?" Mickey asked sarcastically and there was a murmur of agreement.

"Because we can't actually talk to him until after I leave the letter for myself because he'll recognize me." Jackie explained, trying to stay calm. Had all these people given her father as much trouble?

"Why not?" Several voices asked back.

"The letter said I would understand and when I did I would also know when to leave the letter." Jackie huffed.

"Are we in a paradox?" Emily voiced for the first time.

"It would seem that way." Captain jack eyes the girl.

"So breaking it could mean very bad things." Jackie said with authority. "So lets find us a Tardis!"

Everyone was silent.

"Don't be shy." Jackie said dryly.

"How about we just figure out where it's going be be and go get it?" Anthony mused.

"True, we all know when and where the doctor has been." Martha nodded.

"But we only have two transporters." Jackie pontes out.

"Can't you bring the Tardis back?" Mickey asked and Jackie was silent.

"Can you fly the Tardis?" Martha added.

"Technically." Jackie said slowly.

"And what does that mean?" Captain jack asked.

"Well I didn't exactly have a Tardis to practice on," Jackie answered hotly. As she took her Jackie off to reveal tattoos all up and down her arms. Some on the company recognized the symbols as Gallifreyan. "But I'm just as clever as my dad and remembered everything he taught me. And a bit extra."

"Please tell me you ride a motorcycle." Captain jack laughed.

"Am I that cliche?" Jackie smirked. She knew how she looked but she liked it. Her short, sandy blond hair with all of her piercings and tattoos along with her outfit was a bit much, but that was the style she liked. Plus she found it helped to have people think she was more brawn than brain. While yes she could throw a mean punch, her look just kept unwanted annoyances away.

She noticed that about her parents. They looked friendly so it tended to attract everyone and their mother. With everything that had happened the last two years it was just easier for Jackie to choose who she worked with.

"Can we focus here people?" Martha stood up. "Now Tardis, start talking. What exactly can you do?"

"I know the theory but the Tardis regenerates the same as the doctor so learning too much is unneeded information." Jackie explained further. "The Tardis will recognize me but how it responds I don't know. It may listen to me and it may not."

"What do you mean listen?" Luke asked.

"Wait, you guys actually think the doctor controls the Tardis?" Jackie asked in surprise. "I know from my mum it didn't always go where the doctor wanted." All the former companions nodded slowly. "You can make a request but the Tardis is the one that decides if it listens."

"So let me see if I understand this." Luke said as he stepped forward. "We have to find the Tardis, steal it, and then see if it listens to you. Assuming it does, then what?"

"I don't know." Jackie sighed frustratedly. "I'm just going with the paradox."

"Well then lets find us a Tardis." Brian said simply as if to finalize it. Everyone was silent as they thought.

"Um, what is today's date?" Alfie asked suddenly.

"April 13th, 2013." Emily chirped.

"It's my birthday." Alfie said in surprise. "My second actually."

"Congratulations." Nathan said dryly.

"No, you don't get it." Alfie broke into a wide smile. "The doctor visits me almost every birthday. I'm pretty sure he should be there now!"

"The lets go." Jackie nodded, the only one not surprised. If they had bothered to remember her transmitter was pre-programed. She knew this moment had to have been picked for a reason. "We have a Tardis to steal."
