I own nothing!

mimi34: I really liked Jethro too, and I was disappointed that he helped to try to throw the Doctor out of the shuttle...he still would make a good companion, though. :)

They ran as fast as possible, the girls' hair flying backwards in the wind they've been creating through movement.

"Get them!" a weird alien (probably security) with green skin and purple eyes started to charge them.

"Faster!" John yelled, nudging Sarah a little bit.

That was when they pulled out some special guns.

Donna's eyes widened, and so did John's, "Don't get hit by the guns!" they yelled in unison.

The companions nodded. They would not get hit by that stuff.

"Maybe if we can lose them..." Sarah mentioned.

"...And wait in the gift shop until they pass!" Rose hissed back.

They high-fived while the were running.

"Care to share your plan with me?" Jack didn't hear anything.

"Just follow our lead." the two girls pulled ahead to the front, leaving the others behind.

Donna ran up next to them. "What's your plan?"

They immediately told her the plan.

"So, if we pass a map, can you memorize the map with your Time Lordiness and start swerving to lose the security guards? Just make it back to the gift shop. I want to ask Jethro a question." Rose asked.

"I'll do my best." the ginger smirked.

They continued running for a long while before they passed a map. Luckily, the other companions (including John, surprisingly) to follow.

That was good, since Donna immediately started swerving.

But it was also the swerving that caused the security guards to start to fire at them.

"Follow closely!" Donna yelled behind her, going into one store and out the back side.

The companions followed, ignoring the store keepers shouts.

"I kind of hope that that store keeper stalls the security." Martha stated.

"He probably won't. It might be illegal to stop them." Mickey brought up.

The exit to the store was a back alley, which Donna skillfully maneuvered through.

Eventually, they were right by the gift shop that Jethro worked at.

"Hi," Jethro looked up, kind of startled.

It must have been his break time, because he was sitting in a chair, painting his nails raven black.

The companions immediately hid behind the counter as some of the security guards passed.

"Why did taking the crystals call security?" Mickey hissed.

"Well, there is some cameras..." he thought for a moment. "Someone might have recognized you guys as not part of their squad and set off an alarm." he then shrugged. "But you never really know."

"Thanks, kid." Jack nodded to him.

"I'm not a kid-" he started before looking outside. "The coast is clear." Jethro immediately interrupted himself.

The companions nodded their thanks to him before running to the TARDIS, which wasn't that far away.

The TARDIS itself was hit by the guns a few times, blue goo hung from some of the ledges and splattered itself against the door every few inches.

"In," the Metacrisis held the door open as all of the companions darted inside.

After looking around, John saw Ushas on the roof, collecting some of the goo.

"What are you doing?" John sighed.

"This goo is one of the ingredients." she put a cap on her bottle before sliding down and going into the TARDIS like nothing was wrong.

"Children," the Metacrisis couldn't believe that they could be so naïve.

Inside, everyone faced each other for a few moments.

"Where to next?" Koschei couldn't stand being still for any longer.

"Well, there is something on Earth we need." Ushas mentioned.

"Let's go there!" Jackie cried, hoping that she could get everyone away from danger for a little bit.

Ushas just nodded.

"All right then!" John hopped up.

Donna did too, eyeing the Metacrisis as he approached the console.

The others sighed at the inevitable argument about to begin.

Review!
