Wow. I can't believe it's been a year since I became a Whovian. I count today since it was the 50th Anniversary Special that got me hooked on the show. So to celebrate, I'm publishing this little gem. It's mostly finished. I'm only going to post a chapter a day or so. Partly so I can finish it. Mostly because I find lately that people don't review if you post everything at once. So if you want more, review! So a little background before we begin, I was a fan of the show Eureka first. And I was so sad they went off the air. So a few years ago I began playing with the idea of this Eureka Con theme so keep the quirky sci-fi fun going. But it wasn't until I became a Whovian that this story found legs. And of course I become a Whovian and my Doctor regenerates on me. Darn you Moffat! LOL…Don't get me wrong. I like the Twelfth Doctor, can't wait for the Christmas Special, but as my Mom said, 'he needs to lighten up'. So I guess this fic was part therapy to get over the lost of the Eleventh Doctor. Also I wanted to try a Ten/Rose reunion, Eleven/Rose reunion, Ponds/Eleven reunion and Whoffle story. This story has all of that and more. So sit back, relax and enjoy my loves.

flames and kisses,

Sheriff Jack Carter sighed.

"Just another day in Eureka..." He said looking up at the rocket taking off.

"Jack! We've got to stop that rocket before it hits the EM shield." Henry Deacon's voice came over the earpiece he wore.

"Okay...explain to me the plan again?" Jack asked with a wince.

"The isotopic emitter will send a beam of electrostatic energy that will overload the rocket's navigational systems and power cells until it self destructs." Henry explained from his post atop the roof of Global Dynamics.

"So...the ray gun will short-circuit the rocket and make it explode?" Jack clarified.

"Yes!" Henry shouted looking through his binoculars.

"Works for me." Jack said hefting the bazooka like device unto his shoulder.

"Now we must be careful about this. We've only got one shot." Henry told him.

"Always do." Jack said taking aim. Then he fired and a blue beam of light streaked through the sky and zapped the rocket making it explode. And one huge hunk of shrapnel embed itself on the hood of Jack's brown sheriff's jeep.

"Of...course..."Jack sighed.

"Haha! Jack you did it!" Henry laughed.

"Yeah. And now to make who fired that rocket pay." Jack said with resolve.

"Come on Sheriff! This is so lame!" Huffed the teenage boy as he and his buddies scrubbed the floor of the Sheriff's office. Jack sat at his desk, feet propped up on his desk as he read a magazine.

"Should have thought of that when you idiots decided it was a good idea to launch a rocket with actual jet fuel." Jack said.

"We were just trying to win the Ultimate Whovian contest." One of the other boys said.

"The what?" Jack asked.

"The Ultimate Whovian contest. Whoever proves they're a huge Doctor Who fan wins a trip to Cardiff and tickets to the Doctor Who experience!" The third boy said with an enthusiastic grin.

"Doctor Who? The TV show?" Jack said incredulously.

"Oh yes!" The first boy quoted.

"Who's your Doctor Sheriff?" The third boy asked.

"I've never seen the show." Jack said trying to go back to his magazine. Which proved impossible when the three teens looked at him stunned.

"What?! Dude! How could you have never seen Doctor Who? It's THE show that defined the sci-fi genre!" The second boy said.

"Well I'm a little busy keeping science reality from destroying the world." Jack said sarcastically. Henry came in, wearing his brown overalls from his garage.

"Hey Jack. Fixed your jeep." The black man said tossing him the keys.

"Thanks Henry."

"Dr. Deacon...Sheriff Carter has never seen Doctor Who." The third boy said.

"What? You're kidding?" Henry said.

"Henry what's this Ultimate Whovian contest and should I be worried?" Jack asked.

"It's the big contest we have for Eureka Con. Whoever proves they know the most Doctor Who trivia, has the best costume and demonstrates how Doctor Who influenced their love of science wins." Henry explained.

"Eureka Con?" Jack asked.

"Because of our busy schedules, most of the town can't make the rounds of any sci-fi conventions. So we created our own. And the town charter says we can only have Eureka Con every eight years for the same reason. Our last Con was in the fall before you came to Eureka." Henry elaborated.

"Which is lame. Should be every year." The first boy muttered.

"Hmm. Try saying that after you start a ten-year research project at GD." Henry told him.

"And Eureka Con is all about Doctor Who?" Jack asked.

"This year it is. Because this year Eureka Con coincides with the fiftieth anniversary of the show. Although technically, our last Eureka Con was also themed Doctor Who since that was the year the series rebooted." Henry explained sitting on the edge of Jack's desk.

"And everybody in town is going?" Jack asked.

"Duh. Everyone in town is a Whovian." The first boy muttered. Jack looked to Henry for help.

"A fan of Doctor Who." Henry said.

"Ah!" Jack nodded.

"There's not a person in Eureka who can't claim that watching the show didn't inspire them to reach for the stars." Henry said.

"Who's your Doctor, Dr. Deacon?" The third boy asked.

"Me? I'm a Seventh Doctor man myself. I love how he was both the clownish showman and the cunning mastermind." Henry said.

"And how did the show influence you?" The second boy asked.

"The show taught me that knowledge is power. Not who has the bigger guns...or the flashiest rocket?" Henry replied raising a pointed brow.

"Yeah but does it get you to Cardiff?" The first boy asked.

"Okay that's it. Go home. And come straight here after school tomorrow to finish your community service." Jack ordered as the boys dashed out, grabbing their backpacks.

"Believe it or not, launching a rocket isn't the craziest thing people have done to win." Henry chuckled.

"Dare I ask?" Jack sighed.

"One year Fargo tried to ride a blimp like Rose Tyler did over the London Blitz." Henry said.

"And how many bones did he break?" Jack asked.

"Three ribs, a femur and his tailbone." Henry said.

"Not surprised. This is gonna be fun." Jack said.

"It's a great show. Once you give it a chance." Henry said.

"I'll stick with ESPN." Jack said.

"I'm surprised Allison didn't make you watch the show." Henry said.

"What didn't I do?" Asked Jack's beautiful wife as she walked into the station pushing a stroller. Jack grinned at the woman with caramel skin and dark hair. He stood up and gave her a kiss then kneeled before their one year old son.

"Jack's never seen Doctor Who." Henry said.

"Seriously?" Allison blinked.

"JJ, tell your mom it's not a big deal." Jack said to his son who offered him a Cheerio.

"You might want to reconsider that, Jack. Eureka loves the Doctor." She said.

"So long as he doesn't blow up my town, I'll let the Whooligans have their fun." Jack said standing up.

"Whovians!" Allison corrected.

"Same difference." Jack smiled.
