Carrying Kiam he walked up to a glass fronted building. He goes around to the side to the the fire escape he saw when he had visited the building earlier. He had been watching the building for a couple of days now and had decided he needed to get inside to learn more. He had tried to leave Kiam with Jack again, but couldn't find him, not wanting to wait any longer he just decided to bring him.
He sonics the fire escape and enters the building. Heading down the corridor he sees a guard flashes his psychic paper at him.
"John Smith, Health and Safety." He says.
"With a child" The guard ask suspiciously.
"I found him wandering and was going to take him upstairs to see if he belongs to anyone."
"I'll take him." The guard says.
"That's okay. I am heading that way anyways. I don't mind." He hurries off.
Entering a call center he walks over to a young woman and sits down in the chair. "We deliver within three working days. "She says into the phone.
"John Smith, Health and Safety. Don't mind me." he says flashing the psychic paper at her. She eyes Kiam. "It's bring your son to work day." He really needed to find someone to watch Kiam for awhile. He missed Martha. It had now been two months since she had left.
The woman turned her full attention back to the customer on the phone. "The box comes with 21 days worth of pills, a full information pack, and our special free gift, an Adipose Industries pendant." She hands him a gold plated Adpiose pill. "It's made of eighteen carat gold, and it's yours for free."
"I'll just need to keep this for testing. And I just need a list of your customers. Could you print it off?" he asks to her.
"I suppose so." she says.
"Brilliant." He sits down. "Has it got paper?"
"Yeah, Jimbo keeps it stocked."
"Anyway, if you could print that off. Thanks." He walks over to the printer and not finding his papers returns to her. She prints them again and he grabs them and hurries out of the building.
He returns to the Tardis and picks up Martha's cell phone.
"Jack, How would you like to babysit again"
-DW-
Night falls and pulling out the pendant he starts to examine it with a magnifying glass.
"Oh, fascinating. Seems to be a bio-flip digital stitch, specifically for," cutting off he realizes he is alone with Kiam.
-DW-
He drops Kiam off with Jack and then parks the Tardis outside of the glass building. He heads in again through the fire exit and heads to a storage room he saw yesterday. He pulls out his sonic and looks around before opening the door. He sonics the small room and notices an usual reading in the back. He removes the panel and finds an intricate system. After several hours of trying to get into it. He gives up and settles down on the floor. He closes his eyes and surprising himself falls asleep.
-DW-
After every one leaves he stands up and stretches. He feels stiff after sleeping sitting up in the small cabinet. He opens the door and leaves his hiding place. He heads up the stairs to the roof and climbs into the window cleaner's cradle. He looks through the window and then ducks when people enter the room
Hearing muffled voices he pulls out his stethoscope to listen to the conversation. Still not able to hear he looks the window and that's when he spots a familiar red head in the opposite window.
"Donna?" He mouths.
"Doctor? Doctor!" She mouths back
"But what? What? What?" He mouths completely confused.
"Oh my god!" She mouths happily.
"But how?" He mouths
"It's me!" She mouths and he figures she can't read mouths well so he mouths back "Yes, I can see that." adding hand gestures.
"Oh, this is brilliant." She mouths.
"What the hell are you doing there?" He mouths surprised.
"I was looking for you." She gestures as she mouths the words.
"What for?" He mouths
"I read it on the internet. Weird. Crept along. Heard them talking. Hid. You." She is mouthing it and her gestures are concerning him more and more. He starts to wonder if she is having a seizure or possibly is drunk. He suddenly realizes the voices have stopped and Mrs. Foster is staring at him.
"Are we interrupting you?"
"Run!" he says silently.
"Get her." He sonics the office door closed.
"And him." He sends the cradle back to the roof and runs across it and starts to head down the stairs. He meets up with Donna on them and hugs her.
"Oh, my God. I don't believe it. You've even got the same suit! Don't you ever change? "
"Yeah, thanks, Donna. Not right now." He sees the guards and starts to run up the stairs again with her. "Just like old times!"
"Because I thought, how do you find the Doctor? And then I just thought, look for trouble and then he'll turn up." He sonics the door closed. "So I looked everywhere. You name it. UFOs, sightings, crop circles, sea monsters. I looked, I found them all. Like that stuff about the bees disappearing, I thought, I bet he's connected. Because the thing is, Doctor, I believe it all now. You opened my eyes. All those amazing things out there, I believe them all."
"What do you mean, the bees are disappearing?" He asks confused.
"I don't know. That's what it says on the internet. Well, on the same site, there was all these conspiracy theories about Adipose Industries and I thought, let's take a look."
He heads over to the window cleaners cradle again and sonics the controls. "In you get." he tells Donna.
"What, in that thing?"
"Yes, in that thing." What else thing did she expect.
"But if we go down in that, they'll just call us back up again."
"Blimey, Kiam puts up less of a fuss." She looks confused at him.
"I've locked the controls with a sonic cage. I'm the only one that can control it. Not unless she's got a sonic device of her own, which is very unlikely."
He lowers the cradle and when it comes to a stop he looks up and sees Mrs. Foster looking down at him. "Hold on. Hold on. We can get in through the window." He tries to use the sonic to get throw the glass and is upset he finds it Deadlocked. "Can't get it open."
"Well, smash it then!" He watches as she picks up a spanner and starts hitting the bomb proof, deadlocked window. Drunk, he decides. "She's cutting the Cable." Donna calls out. With that the cable snaps and he watches in horror as she falls out and grabs the cable dangling from the end.
"Donna. Hold on!"
He looks up and sees Mrs Foster start to cut the remaining cable. He aims the sonic and blast the pen out of her hand, catching it as it falls. He puts it between his teeth and climbs to another window.
"I'm going to fall! This is all your fault. I should've stayed at home." He slides the window open and climbs inside.
"I won't be a minute" he calls down to her.
He runs down the stairs to Mrs. Foster's office and unlocks the window and grabs Donna's legs and tries to pull her into the window.
"Get off!"
"I've got you. I've got you. Stop kicking!"
He finally manages to pull her inside. "I was right. It's always like this with you, innit?"
"Oh, yes! And off we go." He starts to run again. He takes Donna down to the closet and throws of the ladder and mops.
"Well, that's one solution. Hide in a cupboard. I like it." She says.
He goes over to the open panel. "I've been hacking into this thing all day, because the matron's got a computer core running through the center of the building. Triple deadlocked. But now I've got this," He holds up the sonic pen. "I can get into it." He gets to work on it.
"You look older." Donna says interrupting the silence.
"Thanks."
"Still on your own?"
"Well, no. I had this friend. Martha she was called. Martha Jones. She was brilliant. And I destroyed half her life. But she's fine, she's good. She's gone."
"What about Rose?"
"Still lost. I thought you were going to travel the world?" He says trying to turn the subject away from him.
"Easier said then done. It's like I had that one day with you, and I was going to change. I was going to do so much. Then I woke up the next morning, same old life. I must have been mad turning down that offer."
"What offer?"
"To come with you."
"Come with me?" He repeats back
"Oh yes, please."
"Right." He was confused again.
"She's started the program. So far they're just losing weight, but the Matron's gone up to emergency pathogenesis. They will convert skeletons, organs, everything. A million people are going to die. Got to cancel the signal." He takes the pendant apart and attaches it to the inducer. "This contains a primary signal. If I can switch it off, the fat goes back to being just fat."
"Inducer increasing." The computer announces.
"No, no, no, no, no. She's doubled it. I need. Haven't got time. It's too far. I can't override it. They're all gonna die!"
"Is there anything I can do?"
"Sorry, Donna, this is way beyond you. I need a second capsule to boost the override, but I've only got the one. I can't save them" He sees Donna hold up a pendant and grabs it, pulling it apart he plugs it in and the inducer shuts down.
There is a loud noise in the sky. "Nursery ship." He says as the computer lights up again.
"Hadn't we better go and stop them?"
"Hang on. Instructions from the Adiposian First Family." He listens. " She's wired up the tower block to convert it into a levitation post. Ooo. Oh. We're not the ones in trouble now. She is!"
-DW-
He is standing on the roof with Donna watching the Adipose being beamed aboard the nursery ship. He is looking for Mrs. Foster.
"What you going to do then? Blow them up?" Donna ask.
"They're just children. They can't help where they come from."
"Oh, that makes a change from last time. That Martha must've done you good."
"She did, yeah. Yeah. She did. She fancied me." He admits.
"Mad Martha, that one. Blind Martha. Charity Martha."
"Actually, as a diet plan, it sort of works." He spots Mrs. Foster. "There she is! Mrs. Foster, listen to me."
"Oh, I don't think so, Doctor. And if I never see you again, it'll be too soon."
"Oh, why does no one ever listen. I'm trying to help. Just get across to the roof. Can you shift the levitation beam? I saw the Adiposian instructions. They know it's a crime, breeding on Earth. So what's the one thing they want to get rid of? Their accomplice."
"I'm far more than that. I'm nanny to all these children."
"Exactly! Mum and Dad have got the kids now. They don't need the nanny anymore." He sees her realize he is right as the beam turns off and she falls to the ground. Donna hides her face in his coat but he stands stone faced as he watches her hit the ground.
-DW-
They walk to the Tardis.
"That's my car! That is like destiny. And I've been ready for this." She opens the trunk to reveal suitcases. "I packed ages ago" She starts rambling and handing him boxes. "You're not saying much."
"No, it's just. It's a funny old life, in the Tardis."
"You don't want me." She says concerned.
"I'm not saying that."
"But you asked me. Would you rather be on your own?"
"I'm not," he thinks of Kiam. "No. Actually, no. But the last time, with Martha, like I said, it, it got complicated. And that was all my fault. I just want a mate."
"You just want to mate?" He watches her hide behind the Tardis door.
"I just want a mate"
"You're not mating with me, sunshine!"
"A mate. I want a mate. I'm all ready a father."
"Well, just as well, because I'm not having any of that nonsense. I mean, you're just a long streak of nothing. You know, alien nothing. and what do you mean you're all ready a father. I am not going to be a mother to any of your alien babies"
"There we are, then. Okay."
"I can come?"
"Yeah. Course you can, yeah. I'd love it."
"Off we go, then." Donna says happily as he brings her last box inside and closes the door.
"Here it is. The Tardis. It's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside."
"Oh, I know that bit. Although frankly, you could turn the heating up." He ignores her. "First stop Cardiff"
"Cardiff, all of space and time and you want to go to Cardiff."
"I told you Donna, I'm a father." He lands the Tardis on the riff. "Wait here a moment." He leaves and comes back a few minutes later with Kiam. "Donna meet my son, Kiam"
"You travel with a baby?"
"He has no one else." He walks over to the controls and starts flipping switches.
"So, whole wide universe, where do you want to go?" He ask Donna.
