Mining

Wheezing and humming a blue box materialized in mid complete darkness. The Doctor opened the door, looked out of the box, shook his head and closed it again. Five minutes later Donna opened the door, flash light in the hand."Doctor, are you coming?", she shouted back in the TARDIS. Quick steps where heard and the Doctor poked his head out of the door, a headlamp on his head. "I thought you where searching for a flash light?", Donna asked him, glancing at the light on his spiky hair.

"This is better then a flash light. It´s like a flash light, but you don´t need to hold it in your hands! This is brilliant!", he looked at Donna and shined her right in the face.

She shut her eyes because of the bright light:"Oi! Stop shining in my face, Martian!" "Oops, sorry", he turned his head away. "Where are we anyway? It´s so dark, I can´t see my hand in front of my eyes." The Doctor sniffed the air, then he stepped to the right and licked a completely gray wall, that was now, because of the headlight, visible. Then he turned around, a wide grin spreading across his face:"The gigantic mines of Moria!" Donna looked confused:" Moria? Isn´t this from The Lord of the Rings?" He nodded:"Eyup, they named this place after the mines from the book. The people on this planet are huge fans of the books, but better don´t mention the films in front of them..."

They where walking trough the mines for almost an hour now. Suddenly a greenly light appeared in front of them. "Are this other people?", Donna asked, trying to see who or what was shining. "No...", the Doctor almost whispered and stretched his hand out to touch the light,"...this are jellyfish!" Donna stared at him:"What?! Jellyfish!? Flying in mid air?" And really there where little green jellyfish flying in the air or sitting at the Doctors outstretched arm and head.

"Can they stitch?", Donna asked, looking suspiciously at the green beings. "Yes they can, but this don´t mean they will", the Doctor calmed her and Donna touched one of them, carefully. The jellyfish floated trough the air and landed right in her hair, so that it looked like her hair was shining. Both, the Doctor and Donna laughed, but suddenly they where interrupted by an enormous but also far away, explosion. "What was that!?", Donna shouted, an high pitched noise ringing in her ears. Another explosion followed, now not so far away. "Fun!", the Doctor smirked. Another explosion, some little parts of the ceiling started to fall to the ground. "Allons-y!", the Doctor yelled, grabbed Donnas hand and they both ran away from the explosions, to the TARDIS.

:_:_:_:_:

They almost reached the blue box, standing only about 100 feet before them, but then the ceiling started to fall, rocks and big clouds of dust covered the both time travellers. Donna let a small yelp out and vanished under the mass of stone and dirt. The Doctor was thrown forward, where landed on the stomach and remained still.

Donna opened her eyes slowly. Darkness greeted her. Everything she could see was black, black and more black. "Doctor", she whispered, and coughed as dust filled her mouth and throat. "Doctor!", she tried a little bit louder. Nothing. She tried to stand up, but she couldn´t move. Something heavy was lying on her back and her legs. She could only move her head and her arms a little. "Doctor!", she screamed, now louder. "Donna?", she heard a familiar voice from somewhere in front of here. "DOCTOR!", she screamed, relieved that he where there to hep her.

"Donna where are you?" "I...I don´t know! I can´t see anything! Doctor...I ca-...can´t breath! Help me!", Donnas voice rose up some octaves. She couldn´t see, she was panicking and now she couldn´t breath. "Donna stay calm. You need to stay calm, I get you out of there. Just give me some minutes to get the right equipment. Can you hear me Donna? Stay calm!"

"How do you expect my to stay calm? I need to see something to stay calm!", Donna shouted, some of her normal tone back in her voice. And then it happened. A greenish light filled the small, dark space between Donnas head and the stones from the ceiling. One of the jellyfish flow out of her hair and floated before her face. It had remained the whole time in her hair! Donna laughed, happy to see something again. The Doctor looked in the direction the laugh came from:"What is it?" Donna answered with a smile:"It´s one of the jellyfish. I can see now again!"

The Doctor sighed:"Ok, wait only a few minutes. Speak with the jellyfish in the time!" "Are you kidding me!", Donna cried , but he had already disappeared in the spaceship.

Some minutes later, the Doctor cam back, like he said. He hold out a blue-purplish long stick and pointed at directly at the stones. A red bubble floated out of the stick and started melting the rocks. Just half a minute later Donna was free. The Doctor rushed to her side, scanning her with the sonic. "Don´t worry. Just some bruises and broken leg. In the med bay I have something to fix that.", the Doctor looked her in the eyes as the green Jellyfish floated away. Donna smiled and waved. The Doctor joined in and said:" Bye Gonzalo!"

Donna gave him a curios look:" Gonzalo? Really?" "You don´t like it?" , the Doctor pouted. "No..yes...it´s a Jellyfish! And how do I get in the TARDIS?" The Doctor gave her a wide grin: "Piggyback-ride!"
