Author's Note: I was originally going to split these up and make them two separate chapters but i just decided to put them together as the first part would have been super short. Also i'm sorry if this chapter seems a little off, i had a bit of trouble with writing it at first but managed to barrel through it in the end. Still, i hope you enjoy it!

As usual, constructive criticism and tips on writing are welcome!

Disclamer: I dont own Doctor who or any of it's characters. The only thing i own is my OC Danielle.


As I stepped out of the tardis, I immediately noticed the Doctor had landed us in an alleyway. The ground was still wet from rain and it looked like it was somewhere around 9 or 10 pm. The alleyway was a bit crowded and the tardis had just missed landing on some crates and rubbish bags. It was a bit cold out and I was very glad I had worn a thick jacket instead of what I usually ended up wearing. There was a low wall in front of us and I walked over to it, leaning over to see where it went but it didn't seem to go anywhere exciting. Dead end.

The doctor spoke up, sounding a bit fed up "Do you honestly know how long you can knock around space without happening to bump into Earth?"

I looked at him over my shoulder and smirked at him "What, getting a bit fed up with seeing Earth are we?"

He just grumbled as Rose answered "Five days? Or is that only when we're outta milk?"

"Of all the species in the universe, and it has to come out of a cow." He shook his head and sighed.

A shiver tore through my body as I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, my head whipping around to the left and up at the roof tops but there was nothing there.

'I'm getting paranoid already, jeez.'

"That thing must have come down somewhere quite close. Within a mile, anyway." He looked around, scanning the area for it "And it can't have been more than a few weeks ago. Maybe a month."

I pushed off the wall as the Doctor and Rose started to wander off and I quickly followed behind them, still unable to shake the feeling that we were being watched by something.

"How could you miss by a month?" I confusingly asked as I raised an eyebrow at the Doctor "You're such a terrible pilot, you know that right?"

"Oh shut up"

Rose snorted "A month, though? We were right behind it."

"It was jumping time tracks, it was all over the place. We were bound to be a little bit out. I'd like to see you drive and land when it landed."

"Yeah, no thanks. How much is a little though?" She asked, rubbing her arms trying to fend the cold off.

"A bit."

As we made our way further along the alleyway, we came to a little bit of a sloped path when that strange feeling tore through my body again, my eyes automatically snapped back to the rooftops but there was nothing there.

"Is that exactly a bit?" She asked a little sassily.

"Ish."

I snorted at the Doctor's comment, he was such an adorable idiot sometimes.

"So, what's the plan then?" She asked, looking around and taking in the sights "Are you going to do a scan for alien tech or something?"

He started to pull the psychic paper out of his pocket as he talked and showed it to Rose "Rose. It hit the middle of London with a very loud bang. I'm gonna ask."

'Yeah? Good luck with that one.'

The doctor glared at me over his shoulder for a second before focusing back to the path in front of us as Rose held the psychic paper in her hand for a moment "Doctor John Smith. Ministry of Asteroids."

"It's psychic paper. It tells you-"

"Whatever you want it to tell me. I remember." She looked and sounded a little irritated.

I scanned the area with my eyes as we stopped right in front of a black door that had 'Deliveries Only' written on it.

"Sorry." He replied, sounding genuine about it.

He pulled out his sonic screwdriver as I backtracked up the path a little, trying to see if I could find the little boy I knew would be there soon.

"Mummy? Mummy~?"

As I noticed the little boy on the roof above us I let out a sigh of relief.

"Mummy?"

I tore my eyes away from the little boy for a moment and directed my eyes back to the door only to find both the Doctor and Rose had disappeared through the door. Shit. I knew they wouldn't hear me so I didn't even bother calling out for them as I slowly made my way back up the alley. I stopped next to one of the building and looked around trying to find a way up to the top of the roof. After a few minutes of searching, I finally saw a set of fire escape stairs and made my way up them quickly.

Once I reached the top I looked around the roof only to see the little boy standing on the tallest part. I took a peek around and sadly didn't see any way to get up to him. I stopped below where he was standing and craned my neck up to look at him.

"You ok? Just stay put, I'm going to find a way up and come get you, ok?"

"Mummy?"

"Just don't move, sweetie." I put my hands on the wall in front of me and felt around for any indents I could use to climb up. Unfortunately, it seemed to be a pretty flat wall. I let out a sigh as a piece rope fell and smacked me in the face "Ow!"

Rubbing my forehead I let out another sigh "Well, someone's gotta do it and Rose isn't here to do it. Here we go then." I tugged the rope before grabbing onto it, climbing up a little before placing my feet on the wall for support "This is a lot harder than I thought it'd be, jeez." I grumbled under my breath. After I got about halfway up I felt a sudden shift and I froze, my eyes widening slightly "Oh boy."

"Mummy, Balloon!" The little boy pointed above my head and my eyes snapped up to see the giant barrage balloon.

Said barrage balloon began to drift away from the building and my grip on the rope tightened as I lost the support of the wall, I quickly wrapped my legs around the rope and looked down to see the alleyway and the tardis, both of which were becoming smaller and smaller as I went higher.

'I am so glad I'm not terrified of heights.'

As I was looking over the city, a small amount of fear started to creep up. It wasn't the height, oh no. It was the bombs being dropped and the fire's I could see off in the distance. I didn't know if it was safer up here or down there.

Just as that thought popped up about 10 or 15 planes flew by at quite the speed, sending the little bit of rope I was on blowing about and causing my grip to slacken as I slid down the rope, I let out a high pitched squeak as my head whipped around to see more of them coming towards me and my hearts dropped as they flew by sending the little rope twirling around while I clung to it like my life depended on it.

Although, I guess it did.

'I really hope Jack catches me! I think I suddenly developed a fear of heights too!'

The rope swung around for a few more second before another batch of planes passed as I screwed my eyes shut as I finally lost my grip on the rope and fell, the air that had been rushing past my face abruptly stopped as I cracked one eye open.

Finally letting out a breath I hadn't known I was holding I fully opened my eyes to see the giant blue beam I had been caught in.

'Praise Jack, seriously. That man has perfect timing.'

I suddenly heard Jack's voice as I looked around a little "It's okay! I've got you!"

"Who's got me? And how?! What is this thing?"

"I'm just programming your descent pattern. Keep as still as you can and keep your hands and feet inside the light field!"

"What happens if I stick my hand out?" I asked, genuinely curious.

"Really, don't."

"Alright then," I sighed and shook my head slightly "As they say. All arms, feet, legs and your head inside the vehicle at all times." I squeezed my arms close to my body and straightened my legs out a bit.

"Okay, be with you in a moment, don't move."

"Where the hell am I going to go?!"

I watched as more bombs fell in the distance, suddenly feeling very vulnerable just floating here in mid air in a bright blue beam for the city to see.

A few minutes passed before Jack's voice piped up from thin air again "Okay, hold tight!"

"To what?!"

There was a pause before he replied "Fair point."

Before I knew what was happening I screwed my eyes closed as I was speeding down the light beam and straight for what I knew was an invisible Chula warship as I was thrown into Jack's arms inside said ship. I opened my eyes to see Jack staring down at me with a smile on his face.

"I've got ya. You're fine, you're alright. The tractor beam, it can scramble your head just a little."

"You don't say." I replied sarcastically.

He snorted as he placed my feet on the floor and wrapped his arm around my waist as I wobbled for a second automatically gripping onto his arm for support.

"Are you alright?"

"Peachy."

The room suddenly began to spin a little "Oh boy, here I go." I fell back into Jack's waiting arms as everything went black and he picked me up bridal style placing me on the bunk bed nearby.

-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-

I slowly came back to consciousness a few minutes later. Sitting up slowly as I placed a hand on my head and letting out a low groan. I stood up carefully, checking I still had all my limbs. My hand reached for the pendant around my neck and twisted it around a little in my fingers before letting it go as I made my way out of the little bunk bed indent of sorts in the wall and looked around to see Jack sitting in the Captain's chair, a bunch of various coloured flashing lights surrounding him.

"All better now?"

"Lights?"

He turned around and flicked a few buttons on the console above of him, a few seconds later the lights sprung on and I had to squint my eyes for a few seconds.

"Hello." He said, a small smirk appearing on his face.

"Hi."

"Hey."

I snorted and slowly made my way over towards him "So, I guess you're the one I have to thank for saving my life. Can I get the name of my hero?"

"Captain Jack Harkness. One Three Three Squadron. Royal Air Force. American Volunteer." He handed me psychic paper which, big surprise, had nothing on it.

I smiled, knowing that it probably had some flirtatious pickup line on it. I just shook my head "This is psychic paper." I raised my eyebrows at him expectantly.

"How do you know that?" He asked as he folded his arms over his chest.

"One, I have this friend who uses it,"

"Ah.".

"And two. There's nothing on it. Psychic paper doesn't work on me for some reason." I handed it back to him with a smirk on my face.

He took it from my hands and snorted "You apparently have a sort of crush on someone called the Doctor and just told me you think of me as nothing more than an older brother."

I shrugged "Well, it's true." I paused for a moment as I looked around the spaceship "Nice place."

"Gets me around."

"I bet it does." I slipped my hands into my coat pocket, trying to fend off the cold from being out there for so long.

He shook his head again and raised his eyebrow at me "You don't seem surprised by this at all."

I shrugged "I've seen more impressive ships."

"So you know what it is then?"

I looked at him with a deadpan stare as I replied, "I just told you I have a friend with psychic paper and you're surprised I know this is a spaceship?"

"Fair point." He looked at my face for a moment as I pulled my hands from my pockets and hissed, his eyes snapped down to them as I raised them up to look at them better "Burn your hands on the rope?"

I nodded as he wrapped his hand around my wrist and pulled me over towards him as he stood up and turned me around, pushing my shoulders down slightly causing me to sit down in the Captain's chair.

"Do you often travel by barrage balloon?"

"Only on the weekends."

He snorted as he took off his scarf and wrapped it around my wrists.

"Keep them still, okay?"

Nodding in response I watched as he started flicking a few buttons above my head and I watched as a whole ton of nanogenes swarmed around my cupped hands.

"Nanogenes, sub-atomic robots. The air in here is full of them." He re-flicked the switches and they instantly disappeared "They just repaired three layers of your skin."

He unwrapped the scarf around my hands and tied it back around his neck as I opened and closed them, the pain and cuts having vanished completely.

"Not much of a talker are you?"

I shrugged my shoulder in response "Not really, I don't socialize with people all that well, usually end up saying the wrong thing."

He sighed and rubbed his forehead before speaking up "You know, you can stop acting now, I can spot a Time Agent a mile away."

I looked at him and furrowed my brows in confusion "Time Agent?"

"Yeah, Time Agent."

It took me a moment before it clicked. The order of the conversation was backward's for some reason and it had thrown me for a loop.

"I've been expecting one of you lot for a while now." He folded his arms while looking over my shoulder as a bomb whizzed by the ship, landing not far from us.

I involuntarily shivered at the thought of that bomb being so close but I quickly replied "Yeah, sorry. We got a bit tied up. Didn't have anyone to spare for a while, they finally settled on sending me and my friend."

"Shall we get down to business then?"

He walked over to the bunk bed and pulled out a bottle of champagne "Drink on the balcony? Bring up the glasses" He smirked as he opened a hatch that led to the top of the spaceship.

I grabbed the glasses on my way over and took the steps two at a time to reach the top quicker. I had to stop for a moment once I stepped onto the top, looking down at my feet to see nothing but air, it freaked me out a little.

"I know i'm standing on something. That's so freaky."

A few seconds passed before the ship beneath my feet appeared and I let out a little sigh of relief.

"Not a fan of heights?"

"They didn't bother me until I found myself hanging from a barrage balloon in the middle of a London air raid." I looked up and walked over to Jack, my eyes straying over his shoulder as I finally noticed big ben "So, you have an invisible ship tethered up to big ben."

"First rule of active camouflage. Park somewhere you'll remember." He popped the cork on the champagne taking the two glasses from my hands and filling them up and offering me one.

I took the glass from his hand, taking a sip as my eyes roamed over London, watching the mayhem that was going on. Somewhere out there, was possibly two Doctors that I knew of. I'm surprised he had never run into himself before, especially here as I was pretty sure there had been more than nine and eleven that ended up here. Although they were likely all at different points throughout the year. But still. I turned to Jack and raised my glass, to which he raised his in return.

"You know, once I've finished this I should really get back."

"We're discussing business."

"No, this is champagne and staring at the chaos below."

"I try not to discuss business with a clear head. You said someone was with you? Are you authorized to negotiate with me?"

"And what would we be negotiating exactly?" I raised an eyebrow as I saw another bomb fall from the corner of my eye.

"I have something for the Time Agency. Something they'd like to buy. Are you in power to make payment?"

"To put it simply, no."

He deflated a little as I looked down at the glass in my hand and swirled the liquid around a bit.

I finally looked back up after a few seconds and sighed "I really should be getting back to my friend. He's probably wondering where I got to. You got the time?"

He pulled a small remote from his pocket and pointed it at big ben, I watched as it lit up, displaying the time as 9:30 pm, apparently I wasn't far off my estimate when we landed.

"That. That was flashy, like super flashy."

He just snorted "Do you like Glenn Miller?"

I shrugged my shoulder as he put some nice music on in the background and begun walking around me in a circle.

"So, it's 1941, the height of the London Blitz, the height of the German bombing campaign, and something else has fallen on London. A fully equipped Chula warship. The last one in existence and it's armed to the teeth. And I know where it is. Because I parked it." He stopped in front of me and smirked "If the Agency can name the right price, I can get it for you. But in two hours, a German bomb is going to fall on it and destroy it forever. That's your deadline. That's the deal. Now. Shall we go find that friend of yours?"

"Yeah, I think that would be best. Although, how are you going to find him exactly?"

"Easy," He poked at the thing on his arm "I'll do a scan for alien tech."

I snorted "Well, at least one of you has the brains to do it."

-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-

We had made our way over to the hospital after Jack had done a few scans, picking up on the Doctor's location right away. Once we got there we made our way inside and began looking around, trying to find him and Rose.

"Hello?"

I rubbed my forehead and sighed as I felt another headache starting

"Hello?" Jack shouted again, hoping to get a response.

We looked around a little more before coming to a corridor as I spotted two figures walking through a set of double doors at the end of it. Said figures were the Doctor and Rose, who quickly approached us. The doctor looked at me for a few seconds, a smile making it's way onto his face before Jack pulled his attention away.

"Ah! Good evening. Hope we're not interrupting" We made our way over, meeting them halfway as Jack immediately shook the Doctor's hand "Jack Harkness. I've been hearing all about you on the way over."

"He knows, sorry. Had to tell him about us being Time Agents."

"And it's a real pleasure to meet you. Mister Aslan." Jack walked off towards the ward.

I went to follow as the Doctor stopped me with his hand on my arm "Are you okay? And Mister Aslan? Really?"

"I'm fine and what was I supposed to say exactly?" I raised an eyebrow "You don't really have a name, do you? Couldn't go calling you the Doctor."

He shook his head "Yeah, but Aslan? From the Chronicles of Narnia?"

I shrugged my shoulders as I heard Rose laugh slightly from behind me. I smirked at her from over my shoulder before the Doctor pulled my attention back to him.

"Where've you been anyway? We're in the middle of a London Blitz, It's not exactly a good time for a stroll."

"Who said anything about strolling?" I walked off a bit and threw a smirk over my shoulder "I went by barrage balloon. The only way to see an air raid."

Rose and the Doctor shouted simultaneously as they rushed forward to follow me "What?!"

"Listen, though. What's a Chula warship?"

The doctor frowned "Chula?"

I nodded as we made our way into the ward, there were beds lining each wall and a table and chair situated in the middle. Jack was currently scanning all the patients in the room, muttering things under his breath as he went.

"This just isn't possible. How did this happen?" Jack looked over to us but the Doctor ignored the question.

He looked straight at Jack "What kind of Chula ship landed here?"

I looked at the Doctor and quickly replied "He said it was a warship. Stole it and parked it somewhere that a bomb's going to land on it."

"What kind of warship?"

"Does it matter? It's got nothing to do with this." Jack said, sounding a bit frustrated.

"This started at the bomb site. It's got everything to do with it. What kind of warship?!"

"An ambulance! Look!" Jack poked at his wristwatch thing again, pulling up a holographic 3d image of the ambulance "That's what you chased through the time vortex. It's space junk! I wanted to kid you it was valuable. It's empty. I made sure of it. Nothing but a shell. I threw it at you. Saw your time travel vehicle, love the retro look by the way, nice panels. Threw you the bait."

Rose looked between the three of us "It was bait? What for?"

"I wanted to sell it to you and then destroy it before you found out it was junk."

"You said it was a war ship though?" Rose asked, unable to wrap her head around the situation.

"They have ambulances in wars. It was a con, I was conning you. That's what I am, I'm a con man." He paused for a moment, his eyes darting between the three of us "I thought you were Time Agent's. You're not, are you?"

"Nope, just a few more freelancers." I responded a little airily.

He groaned and turned away from us before quickly looking back "Oh, I should have known. The way you guys are blending in with the local colour. I mean, Flag girl here is bad enough, but U-Boat Captain?" He looked over at me and nodded his head "At least she mostly blends in. Anyway. Whatever's happening here has got nothing to do with that ship."

"What is happening here, Doctor?" I asked innocently, trying to pretend I had no idea what was happening.

"Human DNA is being rewritten by an idiot."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know. Some kind of virus converting human being into these things. But why? What's the point?"

All the patients in the room suddenly sat up, they were all chanting 'mummy' over and over again. My eyes darted around the room from patient to patient, the whole thing was giving me the creeps.

"What's happening?" asked Rose, sounding a bit panicked.

"I don't know." replied the Doctor.

The patients slowly stood up from the beds and made their way towards us. I kept glancing around the room, trying to look for an exit, the choices of escape routes becoming less and less as we were backed up against a wall like cattle being herded by a bunch of farmers.

"Don't let them touch you!"

"Why, what happens if they touch us?" I asked.

"You're looking at it."

I felt the Doctor take my hand and squeeze it as the patients kept chanting, getting closer and closer by the second. I squeezed his hand in response as I scrunched my nose up.

"You got a plan Doc?"

"Nope."

"Great."

"Yep."

I squeezed my eyes shut in fear. I really hoped we could get out of this mess, it was moment's like this that I couldn't help but wonder if this was where it was going to end. This wasn't a tv show after all. From my experience, life didn't have a happy ending like it did on tv and stories.

'Come on Doctor. Think. Please.'

The doctor pulled my hand a little, making it so I was half standing behind him. As the patients were almost within touching distance, I could almost see the moment the Doctor had a plan wedge itself into his thoughts.

"Go to your room."

They all stopped, tilting their heads at the Doctor.

"Go to your room. I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I am very, very cross. Go. To. Your. Room!" He shouted as he pointed his hand at the ceiling.

They all hung their heads in shame and shuffled away from us and made their way back over to their beds. I saw a smile spread across the Doctor's face as he let out a sigh of relief and squeezed my hand "I'm really glad that worked." He turned slightly and grinned at me "Those would have been terrible last words!"

I let out a laugh of relief, the stress of the situation instantly draining away as I leaned forward and lay my head on his shoulder. I could hear Jack and Rose giggling behind me too. Yeah. Terrible last words indeed. I looked back up to see all the patients having returned to their beds as the Doctor pulled me forward and into the middle of the room and finally let go of my hand.

Rose was crouched next to one of the patients, scanning their gas mask face with a sad expression on her face.

I walked over next to her and looked down at the person "So, why are they wearing gas masks?"

Jack walked over to the table and chair, sitting down comfortably as he put his feet up on top of the table "They're not, those masks are flesh and bone.".

The doctor stood in front of Jack and the table with slightly furrowed brows "How was your con supposed to work then?"

"Simple enough, really." He took in a breath and shakily let it back out "Find some harmless piece of space junk, let the nearest Time Agent track it back to Earth, convince him it's valuable, name a price. When he's put fifty percent up front, oops!" He shrugged a little, waving his hands slightly "A German bomb falls on it, destroys it forever. He never gets to see what he's paid for, never knows he's been had. I buy him a drink with his own money, and we discuss dumb luck. The perfect self-cleaning con."

The doctor replied sarcastically with a deadpan stare "Yeah. Perfect"

"The London Blitz is great for self-cleaners. Pompeii's nice if you want to make a vacation of it though, you've got to set your alarm for volcano day though." He laughed slightly.

The doctor just kept staring at Jack. I nearly snorted as Jack's laugh trailed off awkwardly.

"Getting a hint of disapproval."

"Take a look around the room." He nodded his head slightly to the patients around us "This is what your harmless piece of space junk did."

Jack sighed "It was a burnt out medical transporter. It was empty!"

The doctor turned from Jack as he grabbed my hand and headed for the door as he called over his shoulder "Rose."

"Are we getting out of here then?" She asked as she followed us to the door.

"We're going upstairs."

Jack shouted after us, still trying to get his point across "I even programmed the flight computer so it wouldn't land on anything living! I harmed no one." We stopped at the door, the Doctor looking back at Jack over his shoulder "I don't know what's happening here but believe me, I had nothing to do with it!"

"I'll tell you what's happening here, you forgot to set your alarm. It's volcano day."

A siren went off in the distance as I squeezed the Doctor's hand, trying to help relieve some of the stress he was clearly feeling.

"What's that?" asked Rose.

"The all clear" Jack replied.

"I wish" The doctor muttered under his breath as he stormed out the room, still pulling me along with him.

We headed off and along the corridor until we came to a set of stairs, both of us taking them two at a time.

As we reached the second level the Doctor stopped and shouted over the handrail. "Have you got a blaster?"

Rose and Jack came skidding to a stop at the bottom of the stairs as Jack replied "Sure!"

We made our way up the last of the stairs and took a sharp left, heading towards a reinforced metal door, it looked like it was to keep something inside which set me on edge instantly.

"The night your space junk landed, someone was hurt. And this was where they were taken."

"What happened?" I asked softly.

"Let's find out." He nodded to Jack "Get it open."

Jack walked up to the metal door and pulled out his blaster. Both the Doctor and I stepped out of the way, letting Jack get in at the door better.

I leaned up to the Doctors ear and whispered as quietly as I could "What's wrong with your sonic screwdriver Doc?"

"Nothing."

The blaster disintegrated the lock and Jack turned to the Doctor as he opened the door and smiled but the Doctor just grabbed the blaster from Jack's hand and inspected it.

"Sonic blaster, fifty-first century. Weapon Factories of Villengard?"

"You've been to the factories?" Jack asked, looking mildly surprised.

"Once."

"Well, they're gone now, destroyed. The main reactor went critical. Vaporized the lot."

A small smirk made it's way onto my face, knowing full well that the Doctor had everything to do with that.

"Like I said. Once." He handed Jack his blaster back and paused for a moment looking at me as he smirked "There's a banana grove there now. I like bananas. Bananas are good." He pulled me into the small room.

I whispered in his ear "So, you did that right?"

He just smirked even more. That was all the confirmation I needed. We looked around the room and I spotted a recorder sitting on the table in front of a smashed glass window as Rose and Jack walked in. The doctor looked over his shoulder.

"What do you think?" He looked back to the broken observation window.

"Something got out of here."

"Yeah. And?"

"Something powerful. Angry."

"Powerful and angry." The doctor replied mockingly.

Jack and Rose wandered into the room on the other side of the wall. I looked through the smashed observation window and saw a bunch of crayon drawings on the wall and scattered across the floor along with a single teddy bear and what looked like a rocking horse. I tried to suppress the shiver that tore it's way through me. The entire room was giving me the creeps.

"A child? I suppose this explains mummy."

"How could a child do this?" Rose asked, sounding confused.

The doctor flicked a switch on the recorder and it instantly sprung to life, playing a recording of Doctor Constantine asking the child some questions.

"Do you know where you are?"

"Are you my mummy?"

"Are you aware of what's around you? Can you see?"

"Are you my mummy?"

"What do you want? Do you know-"

"I want my mummy. Are you my mummy? I want my mummy! Are you my mummy? Are you my mummy?! Mummy? Mummy? Mummy?!"

I shivered as I looked over to the Doctor who had a contemplative look on his face "Doctor, I've heard this voice before."

"Me too."

"Mummy?"

"He always asks 'Are you my mummy?' As if he doesn't know,"

"Mummy?"

"Why wouldn't he know, though?" Rose asked.

"Are you there, mummy? Mummy?"

The doctor pulled me into the room and finally let go of my hand again as he began pacing around the small area.

"Mummy? Please, mummy? Mummy?"

"Doc?"

"Can you sense that Dani?" He looked at me expectantly as I nodded my head.

Jack spoke up, looking really confused "Sense what?"

"Coming out of the walls. Can you feel it?"

"Mummy?"

"Funny little human brains. How do you get around in those things?"

Rose looked to Jack and half-heartedly shrugged "He like's to insult species when he's stressed."

"Rose, I'm thinking."

"He cuts himself shaving, he does half an hour on life forms he's cleverer than."

I snorted as the Doctor threw a glare at me.

He stopped in front of the smashed observation window, blocking our view of the recorder in the process "There are these children living rough 'round the bomb sites. They come out during air raids looking for food."

"Mummy, please?"

"Suppose they were there when this thing, whatever it was, landed?"

"It was a med-ship. It was harmless." Jack replied tersely.

"Yes, you keep saying harmless. Suppose one of them was affected, altered?"

"Altered how?" asked Rose.

I heard the sound of the tape run out and I felt a shiver run straight down my spine as I slowly side stepped to look behind the Doctor at the little boy who was now standing behind the recorder."I'm here!"

"It's afraid. Terribly afraid and powerful. It doesn't know it yet, but it will do." He laughed a little nervously "It's got the power of a god, and I just sent it to it's room."

"Doctor." I poked the Doctor's arm, trying to pull his attention.

"I'm here, can't you see me?"

Rose looked around the room slightly "What's that noise?"

I took in a heavy breath, calming myself "The tape ended. It ran out thirty seconds ago."

"I'm here, now. Can't you see me?"

"I sent it to it's room. This is it's room."

I poked his arm again as he quickly turned to face the child. He instantly backed up, grabbing my hand and pulling me with him.

'What is it with him and hand holding? Not that I'm complaining.'

"Are you my mummy?"

"Doctor?" Rose's voice wobbled a little.

"Okay, on my signal make for the door." Jack added.

"Mummy?"

I saw the Doctor quickly switch Jacks blaster out for a banana as Jack shouted and went to grab it to aim it at the door.

"What?!" Jack looked at the banana confusion written across his face.

The doctor aimed the blaster at the wall and made a medium sized square hole in it.

"Go now! And don't drop the banana!"

"Why not?!"

"Good source of potassium!"

All four of us rushed through the hole as Jack grabbed the blaster from the Doctor "Give me that!" He set the blaster, aimed it at the hole and filled it back in "Digital rewind. Nice switch."

Jack threw the banana back to the Doctor "It's from the groves of Villengard. I thought it was appropriate."

"There's really a banana grove in the heart of Villengarde and you did that?" Jack looked at him with an eyebrow raised.

"Bananas are good!"

The wall in front of us suddenly formed a crack and I flinched from how unexpected it was.

"Doctor!" Rose shouted as the Doctor grabbed both of our hands.

"Come on!" He ran down the hall with Rose, me and Jack hot on his heels.

We came to an abrupt stop as patients came bursting through the double doors, heading straight for us. We ran back the other way but more patients cut us off, finally leaving us back where we started while the patients continued to chant 'mummy' over and over.

"It's keeping us here till it can get at us."

"It's controlling them?" Jack asked.

"It is them. It's every living thing in this hospital."

"Okay." Jack said as he held up his blaster "This thing can function as a sonic blaster, a sonic cannon and as a triple-enfolded sonic disrupter. Doc, what you got?"

"I've got a sonic, er-" He pulled out the sonic from his pocket partially before deciding to just leave it "Oh, never mind."

"What?"

"It's sonic, okay? Let's leave it at that."

"Disrupter? Cannon? What?"

"It's sonic! Totally sonic! I am soniced up!"

I let a laugh out as I enjoyed the scene unfold in front of me, this had always been my more favorite moment of the 9th Doctor's to watch.

"A sonic what?!"

"Screwdriver!"

The wall in front of us crumbled to reveal the little boy and as he stepped through the hole he mad Rose quickly grabbed Jack's blaster, pointing it at the floor.

"Going down!" She pulled the trigger and the next thing I was aware of was a foot in my back.

I opened my eyes just in time to see Jack repair the hole in the ceiling and I groaned, rolling over and onto my stomach.

"Doctor, Dani? You two okay?" asked Rose, sounding a little worried.

The doctor groaned as he stood up "Could've used a warning." He knelt down and pulled me off the floor, checking me over in the process. He nodded his head and patted my shoulders.

"Oh, the gratitude!"

Jack turned to the Doctor letting out a laugh "Who has a sonic screwdriver?"

"I do." The doctor frowned at Jack.

"Who looks at a screwdriver and thinks," He paused "Ooo, this could be a little more sonic?" The last part sounding a little sarcastic but not quite.

"What, you've never been bored?" He sounded so confused by the fact that Jack found him having a sonic screwdriver to be strange "Never had a long night? Never had a lot of cabinets to put up?"

I watched rose wander off to find the light switch, a moment later the room was flooded with light and all the patients in the room sat up, chanting mummy.

"Door!" We ran for the nearby door as Jack pointed to it with his blaster but it didn't do anything "Damn it! It's the special features! They really drain the battery."

I raised an eyebrow "The battery? Really?"

He shrugged as the Doctor whipped out the screwdriver and aiming it at the doors as they swung open, letting us inside. He soniced them shut once we were all safely in.

"Let me get this straight, you're from the fifty-first century and thing's still run on batteries?"

"Yeah, it sucks. I was going to send for another one, but somebody's got to blow up the factory" He glared at the back of the Doctor's head.

Rose smirked at Jack "Oh, I know. First day I met him, he blew up my job. That's practically how he communicates."

The doctor spoke up as he turned to face the three of us and walked further into the room "Okay, that door should hold it for a bit."

"The door? The wall didn't exactly stop it now did it?!"

"Well," He paused "It's got to find us first! Come on, we're not done yet! Assets, assets!" He walked over to the table and began pacing.

Jack walked over to the wheelchair and sat himself down with a huff "Well, I've got a banana, and in a pinch, you could put up some shelves."

The doctor spotted the window as he climbed up on top of the table to get a better look at it "Window!"

"Barred. Sheer drop outside. Seven stores."

"And no other exits." Rose sighed, sitting down on the edge of the table.

"Well, the assets conversation went in a flash, didn't it? Unless Dani's got something up her sleeve?"

I shook my head and sighed as the Doctor turned to face me.

"So, where'd you pick this one up then?" He sounded fed up but I could have swore I heard something else mixed in his voice.

"Doc, come off it."

The doctor turned around to face the window again, trying to think of an easy way out.

"She was hanging from a barrage balloon. I had an invisible spaceship. I never stood a chance" Jack threw me a wink and I snorted as I watched him push a few buttons on his wristwatch and disappear.

"Okay. One, we've got to get out of here. Two, we can't get out of here. Have I missed anything?"

"Yeah, Jack disappeared a second ago."

-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-

The doctor was currently sitting next to me on the edge of the table while Rose was pacing a little. After a moment she came to a stop next to the Doctor and sighed as she looked at us both like we held the answers.

"Okay, so he's vanished into thin air then. Why is it always the great looking ones who do that?"

"I'm making an effort not to be insulted."

I leaned back a bit and gently patted his shoulder "Don't worry Doctor, you're great looking too" I smiled up at him as he shot me a grin.

"I mean, men." said Rose.

"Okay, thanks." He huffed "That really helped."

Jack's voice came over the little radio "Dani? Rose? Doctor? Can you hear me? I'm back at my ship. Used the emergency teleport. Sorry I couldn't take you. It's security-keyed to my molecular structure but I'm working on it. Hang in there."

The doctor jumped down from the table and over to the radio, Rose following behind while I stayed sitting down. He picked up a wire that didn't seem to lead anywhere as he leaned on the wall.

"How're you speaking to us?"

"Om-Com. I can call anything with a speaker grill."

"Now that's a coincidence."

"What is?"

"The child can Om-Com too."

"He can?" asked Rose.

The doctor nodded slightly "Anything with a speaker grill. Even the tardis phone."

"What, you mean the kid can phone us? That's a bit creepy." I replied, swinging my legs back and forth.

"And I can hear you. Coming to find you. Coming to find you."

"Doctor, can you hear that?" asked Jack.

"Loud and clear."

"I'll try to block out the signal. Least I can do."

"Coming to find you, mummy!"

"Remember this one Dani?" The song Jack had played on the spaceship suddenly filled the air, causing me to crack a smile.

"Aw, Jack. Our song. Thanks."

The doctor threw me a questioning glance as he got up onto the table and started fiddling around with his sonic, aiming it at the bars across the window, while Rose had wandered over to the wheelchair and sat down, spinning it around in a circle. I got up from the table and started pacing around the room, trying to remember anything useful that could help but I kept drawing a blank.

I stopped pacing and looked at the Doctor "What are you even doing?"

He looked over his shoulder quickly before focusing back on the bars "Trying to set up a resonation pattern in the concrete, loosen the bars."

I paused for a moment before sighing "You don't think he's coming back, do you?"

"Wouldn't bet my life, no."

"Why don't you trust him Doc?"

He turned to me, looking straight at my eyes "Why do you?"

"Because he saved my life? I fell from a barrage balloon and he caught me in a blue beam thing. Didn't exactly see you around to save the day."

"I was busy."

I snorted and folded my arms over my chest "Right. Well, I guess I trust him because he's like you, except with dating and dancing."

The doctor made a funny face.

"What?"

He sighed as he looked away "You just assume I'm-"

"What?" I raised an eyebrow.

He looked back over his shoulder at me "You just assume that I don't dance."

"You can dance? Really?"

"Nine hundred years old, me. I've been around a bit. I think you can assume at some point I've danced."

I was about to reply when I paused, thinking over what he just said "Nine hundred? That's how old you are?"

"Yes."

I muttered under my breath "Blimey." I walked over to the radio and turned the volume up, turning back around and going up to the table and reaching out my hand towards him, I wiggled my fingers "So, come on then. Show me what you can do."

"Dani, I'm trying to resonate concrete."

Rose snorted at us in the background, trying her hardest not to full on laugh at how adorably funny the situation was.

"Come on, Jack will get us out of this. Trust him." I wiggled my fingers again "The world doesn't end because the Doctor dances."

The doctor looked at my hand before jumping down from the table and taking my wrist in his hand.

"Barrage balloon?" He flipped my hand over, examining it.

"Huh?"

"You said you were hanging from a barrage balloon."

"Ah, yeah. About 5 minutes after you and Rose wandered off, found myself hanging thousands of feet above London in the middle of an air raid. I was enjoying the view before those planes flew by and made me fall off."

He raised his eyebrow and huffed "You know I've traveled with a lot of people, but you're setting a record for getting yourself into dangerous situations."

A smirk formed on my face as I replied, "You know, if this is you dancing, I have some tips."

"Hanging from a rope thousands of feet above London. Not a cut nor bruise."

"Captain Jack fixed me up." I half-heartedly shrugged.

He looked into my eyes for a moment, trying to find answers in them. Answers to what though, I don't exactly know "I really would appreciate If you would be more careful in the future. Promise me you'll be careful Dani?"

A small genuine smile made its way onto my face "I promise to be more careful, doesn't mean I'll stay out of trouble."

He snorted and let go of my hand.

"You know." Jack spoke up causing me to jump a little "Most people notice when they've been teleported. You guys are adorable. Sorry about the delay. I had to take the nav-com offline to override the teleport security."

The doctor looked around the ship we were now standing in and I noticed Rose was off to the side, still trying to hold back from laughing at us.

"You can spend ten minutes overriding your own protocols? Maybe you should remember whose ship it is."

"Oh I do. She was gorgeous. Like I told her, be back in five minutes."

Rose grinned at Jack as the Doctor made his way closer to Jack and I followed a little behind him.

"This is a Chula ship."

"Yeah, just like that medical transporter. Only this one is dangerous."

I watched as the Doctor snapped his fingers and a bunch of nanogenes swarmed around his hands, repairing the small amount of damage there was "Those are what fixed my hands up. Jack called them Nanogenes or something."

"Yeah, Nanogenes. Sub-atomic robots. There's millions of them in here." He turned his hand slightly "See? Burned my hand on the console when we landed." The doctor waved his hand and the Nanogenes disappeared, he turned to Jack "Take us to the crash site. I need to see your space junk."

I couldn't help but think of the possible innuendo that was and let out an airy laugh.

"As soon as I get the nav-com back online. Make yourself comfortable. Carry on with whatever it was you two were doing."

"We were talking about dancing."

"It didn't look like talking." said Jack.

"Didn't feel like dancing." I muttered under my breath.

Jack and Rose were chatting away but I tuned most of it out until Jack announced we were ready to leave for the crash site. Taking a breath I readied myself, twisting my fingers around my pendant subconsciously.

-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-

The four of us were currently standing behind some sandbags and crates, looking over the bomb site. The Doctor had a pair of binoculars out, trying to see if he could find us an easy way in. I took them from him and zoomed in, spotting a guard near the gate. I passed the binoculars to Jack who took them and looked at the guard.

"They've got Algy on duty. It must be important."

"We've got to get past him."

"Are the words 'distract the guard' heading in my general direction?" asked Rose.

"I don't think that'd be such a good idea Rose."

"Don't worry I can handle it." She went to move forward but I quickly put my hand on her shoulder and pulled her back.

"I've gotten to know Algy quite well since I've been in town. Trust me, you're not his type." Jack started to walk away a little before turning back to look at us "I'll distract him. Don't wait up." He wandered off towards the guard as Rose looked at him worryingly.

"Relax, Rose. He's a fifty-first century guy. He's just a bit more flexible when it comes to dancing." The doctor smirked, looking at Rose over my head.

"How flexible?"

"Well," He shrugged "By his time, you lot have spread out across half the galaxy."

"Meaning?"

"So many species, so little time."

"What, that's what we do when we get out there? That's our mission? We seek new life, and, and-"

"Dance."

I let out a laugh as I watched Jack flirt with Algy, before I saw the man gagging before falling to his knees. The doctor, Rose and I rushed forward through the trains towards Jack, the Doctor shouting at him to stay back. Jack ordered the men that had been approaching to stay back as the air raid sirens went off.

"The effect's becoming air-borne, accelerating."

"So, what's keeping us safe then Doc?" I asked a little panicked.

"Nothing."

Jack looked up at the sky "Ah, here they come again."

Rose looked towards Jack, confusion on her face "Didn't you say there was a bomb going to land here?"

"Ah."

The doctor took my hand as he explained a little further "Never mind the bomb. If the contaminants airborn now, there's hours left."

"For what?"

"Till nothing, forever." He squeezed my hand and I squeezed back "For the entire human race." He paused for a moment, tilting his head "And can anyone else hear singing?"

I took a moment to listen before I nodded my head. We followed the sound of the voice until we came to a small building and took a peek inside. Nancy heard the door creak open and stopped singing to look at us, the Doctor quickly signaling her to keep going as he pointed his sonic at the handcuffs and freeing Nancy. We made our way out of the building and over to the center of the bomb site. The doctor let go of my hand as him and Jack pulled the sheet off the object in the middle to reveal the ambulance.

"See? Just an ambulance."

Nancy tilted her head slightly while Rose held her shoulders in a half hug "That's an ambulance?"

I nodded my head "It's not exactly from around here. It's from another planet."

Jack pushed a few buttons on the small panel on its side "They've been trying to get in."

"Of course they have." said the Doctor, "They think they've got their hands on Hitler's latest secret weapon." He paused to watch Jack type in a code "What're you doing?"

"The sooner you see this thing is empty, the sooner you'll know I had nothing to do with it."

The ambulance suddenly sparked causing Jack and the Doctor to flinch slightly as an alarm went off and the panel started flashing red.

"That didn't happen last time."

"It hadn't crashed last time." The doctor poked at the controls with his sonic "There'll be emergency protocols."

"Doctor, what is that?" asked Rose.

The patients begin shaking the gates, trying to get through it.

"Doctor!"

The doctor pointed towards the gates and shouted, "Captain, secure those gates!"

"Why?"

"Just do it!" He turned to Nancy as Jack ran off "Nancy, how'd you get in here?"

"I cut the wire."

"Show Rose. Setting two thousand four hundred and twenty-eight D." He threw his sonic at Rose.

She catches it, nearly dropping it while the Doctor climbed on top of the ambulance "What?"

"Reattaches barbed wire. Go!"

Rose and Nancy ran off towards the fence while the Doctor poked at the ambulance with his fingers trying to get the alarm to stop.

Jack runs back up to us and helps the Doctor with poking at the ambulance while I stood there watching them a moment Rose and Nancy come back, having fixed the fence. Jack finally gets the ambulance open and points to the inside.

"It's empty. Look at it, see?"

The doctor folded his arms over his chest "What do you expect in a Chula medical transporter? Bandages? Cough drops?" The doctor turned to me expectantly "Dani?"

"I don't know." I shrugged.

"Yes, you do."

I pretended to think for a moment before shouting and snapping my fingers at the Doctor "Nanogenes!"

He smiled before turning back to Jack "It wasn't empty, Captain. There was enough nanogenes in there to rebuild a species."

The colour drained from Jack's face "Oh, god."

"Getting it now, are we? When the ship crashes, the nanogenes escape. Billions upon billions of them, ready to fix all the cuts and bruises in the whole world. But what they find first is a dead child, probably killed earlier that night, and wearing a gas mask."

"They can bring people back to life?" I asked.

"What's life? Life's easy! A quirk of matter. Nature's way of keeping meat fresh. Nothing to a nanogene." The doctor locked eyes with Jack as he continued his explanation. "One problem though. These nanogenes, they're not like the ones on your ship. This lot have never seen a human being before. Don't know what a human being's supposed to look like. All they've got to go on is one little body, and there's not a lot left. But they carry right on. They do what they're programmed to do. They patch it up. Can't tell what's gas mask and what's skull, but they do their best. Then off they fly, off they go, work to be done. Because, you see, now they think they know what people should look like, and it's time to fix all the rest. And they won't ever stop. They won't ever, ever stop. The entire human race is going to be torn down and rebuilt in the form of one terrified child looking for it's mother, and nothing in the world can stop it!"

"I didn't know!" Jack said as he shifted his eyes away from the Doctor's intense stare.

The doctor walked around to the front of the ambulance and crouched down as he started to mess around with it again.

I started to pace back and forth as I watched the patients get closer to us. I never usually paced when I was nervous but something about being with the Doctor made me into a Pacer. I couldn't stand still in these types of situations.

"Doctor, It's bringing the gas mask people here isn't it?" I asked as he looked at me and nodded.

"The ship think's it's under attack. It's calling up the troops. Standard protocol."

"But they aren't troops."

"They are now. This is a battlefield ambulance. The nanogenes don't just fix you up, they get you ready for the front line. Equip you, programme you."

"So is that why the child is so strong? Why it can do that phone thing?"

He nodded and stood up "It's a fully equipped Chula warrior, yes. All that weapons tech in the hands of a hysterical four year old looking for his mummy. And now there's an army of them."

The patients had made their way around the entire area, cutting us off from escape.

"Why don't they attack?" asked Jack.

"Good little soldiers, waiting for their commander."

"The child?"

Nancy suddenly snapped "Jamie!"

"What?"

"Not the child. Jamie."

I looked around the area "How long till this place goes boom?"

"Any second" Jack replied.

The doctor turned to Jack and snapped at him "What's the matter, Captain? A bit close to the volcano for you?"

"He's just a little boy." Nancy sadly said.

The doctor walked forward, stopping in front of Nancy "I know."

"He's just a little boy who wants his mummy." Tears sprung to Nancy's eyes.

"I know. There isn't a little boy born who wouldn't tear the world apart to save his mummy. And this little boy can."

"So, what do we do then Doc?" I asked.

"I don't know."

"It's my fault."

"No."

"It is. It's all my fault."

"How can it be your-" The patients started calling out mummy again. I walked over to the Doctor and took his hand. I couldn't lie. This whole situation was terrifying me "Nancy, what age are you? Twenty? Twenty-one? Older than you look, yes?"

I looked up to see an explosion land way too close for my liking, I could feel my hearts speed up as naught but a second later another one landed. Closer than the last one.

"Doctor, that bomb. We've got seconds."

Rose looked to Jack "Can't you teleport us out?"

"Not you guys. The nav-com's back online. Going to take too long to override the protocols."

"So it's volcano day. Do what you've got to." The doctor said a little sadly.

Jack smiled at me as he vanished.

The doctor's attention was drawn back to Nancy "How old were you five years ago? Fifteen? Sixteen? Old enough to give birth, anyway. He's not your brother is he?"

She shook her head, tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

"A teenage single mother in 1941. So you hid. You lied. You even lied to him."

I heard the gates rattle as they swung open to reveal a load of patients standing there, with Jamie at the front.

"Are you my mummy?"

"He's going to keep asking Nancy. He's never going to stop."

"Mummy?"

Nancy slowly walked towards Jamie as he walked closer to her too.

"Are you my mummy? Are you my mummy? Are you my mummy?"

"Yes, yes. I am your mummy."

Nancy crouched down in front of him.

"Mummy?"

"I'm here."

"Are you my mummy?"

"I'm here." She said a little more desperately.

"Are you my mummy?"

"Yes."

"Are you my mummy?"

"He doesn't understand. There's not enough of him left."

I squeezed the Doctor's hand and he Squeezed back, looking at me for a few seconds before turning his head back to Nancy and Jamie.

"I am your mummy. I will always be your mummy. I'm so sorry. I am so, so sorry." She hugged Jamie tightly as a cloud of nanogenes surrounded them both.

Rose looked back and forth from the Doctor to Nancy "What's happening? Doctor, it's changing her, we should-"

"Shush! Come on, please." The doctor took a step towards them both "Come on, you clever little nanogenes. Figure it out! The mother, she's the mother. It's got to be enough information. Figure it out."

"What's happening?" I asked.

"See? Recognising the same DNA."

Jamie let's go of Nancy as she fell back slightly.

The doctor let go of my hand as he rushed over to Jamie and stood in front of him, crouching down to his eye level "Oh, come on. Give me a day like this. Give me this one." The doctor slowly took the mask from Jamie's face to reveal his confused looking face.

The doctor let out a loud laugh, a giant grin spreading itself across his face as he picked up Jamie and spun him around "Welcome Back! Twenty years till pop music! You're going to love it!"

"What happened?" asked Nancy.

The doctor put Jamie down and turned to Nancy "The nanogenes recognized the superior information, the parent DNA. They didn't change you because you changed them!" He let out another loud laugh, it was almost contagious with how happy he was "Mother know's best!"

Nancy hugged Jamie close to her, ruffling his hair slightly "Oh, Jamie."

Rose came over and spoke up "Doctor, that bomb."

"Taken care of it."

"How?"

"Psychology."

The bomb sped towards us, mere meters from landing when Jack caught it in the tractor beam. He appeared on the bomb, looking down at us with a grin.

"Doctor!" Jack waved at us.

"Good lad!"

"The bomb's already commenced detonation. I've put it in stasis but it won't last long."

"Change of plan. Don't need the bomb. Can you get rid of it, safely as you can?"

"Dani?" Jack looked towards me, a small smile on his face.

"Yeah?" I asked, looking at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Goodbye." He disappeared with the bomb and I watched as the ship flew off into the distance.

Behind me, the Doctor had summoned a load of nanogenes around his hands and Rose was looking at them strangely.

"What are you doing?"

"Software patch. Going to email the upgrade. You want moves, Dani? I'll give you moves." He still had that giant grin on his face as he threw the nanogenes to the patients around us, who after a few seconds all fell to the ground.

"Everybody lives, Dani, Rose. Just this once, everybody lives!" He laughed as we watched all the patients stand up and look around them, clearly confused. They were back to normal at last. The doctor walked over to them and chatted with a man for a few moments before making his way backwards over to me and Rose "Right, you lot. Lot's to do! Beat the Germans, save the world. Don't forget the welfare state!"

Once he was all the way over, he turned to us and smiled as he fiddled with the ambulance "Setting this to self-destruct, soon as everybody's clear. History says there was an explosion here. Who am I to argue with history?"

Rose snorted "Usually the first in line."

He threw Rose a cheeky grin before going back to looking at the ambulance panel.

-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-vworp-

One everyone had cleared the area and the ambulance was set to self-destruct we made our way back to the tardis. Rose and the Doctor had been talking about where we were heading next but I mostly tuned them out. This whole adventure had been pretty draining. Not mentally, just physically. But the Doctor did say my system was a bit unbalanced so it made sense I would be feeling a lot more exhausted than usual. I seemed to be making a trend of passing out after an adventure.

We made it back to the tardis after a 20-minute walk, the Doctor quickly unlocking the door and going inside, Rose following behind. I heard a cat hissing from down the alleyway behind me and turned around to see what it had been doing when I spotted a figure at the end. I could barely make them out. They had broad shoulders and were around 6ft. They reached up to their neck to fix something and it had just reminded me of how the eleventh Doctor would fix his bowtie. I squinted and took a step forward as they instantly took a step back. I tilted my head to the side, trying to make out any bit of detail but it was just too dark. I let out a sigh and squinted my eyes and glared at them before turning around and heading into the tardis. I swore I heard the person laughing behind me as I left but it was by no means creepy, it was more of the laugh one would do when highly amused by someone else's actions.

As I stepped into the tardis I caught the tail end of Rose and the Doctor's conversation and I closed the doors behind me.

"-about Jack? Why'd he say goodbye?"

I walked up to the console and put my hands on it for support "Doctor, we can't leave him. We have to go and get him, please?"

He looked in my eyes for a minute before finally huffing and sending the tardis off to Jack's ship. Once we landed Rose ran over and yanked the door's open to reveal Jack sitting in his chair with a glass in his hand, as the Doctor put on Glenn Miller, as it floated through the tardis and out into Jack's ship the Doctor tapped my shoulder. I turned to him and he held out his hand, taking it gently we got into the standard Waltz position as I slowly began trying to teach the Doctor how to dance.

I let out a laugh as I shouted over my shoulder at Jack who just looked like he couldn't believe what he was seeing "Come on Jack! We don't have all day!"

Jack got off his chair and instantly dashed for the tardis and through the doors.

"Okay. Turn. Alright, good. Now try to spin me again, but don't get my arm caught like last time."

"I'm sure I used to know this stuff." He looked over my shoulder at Jack who was still gaping at the inside of the tardis "Close the door, will you? Your ship's about to blow up. There's going to be a draught."

Jack turned to the doors, quickly slamming them shut.

"Welcome to the tardis Jack!" I said over my shoulder.

"It's much bigger on the inside."

"Jack, I think there's a blonde over there who's missing a dance partner don't you?" I nodded my head towards Rose as she grinned, both her and Jack starting to dance along with us.

"Dani! I've just remembered!" The doctor shouted excitedly.

"Remembered what?"

He let go of me for a second to change the music and started to dance "I can dance! I can dance Dani!"

I laughed as he pulled me in for another dance, twirling me around and following the rhythm of the music and as the song drew to a close the Doctor dipped me and I had to grab onto his neck so I didn't fall.

And even though this adventure had drained my energy, it was surely my favorite so far.
