You are just about to respond, however you are cut short when the golden shards suddenly change to red and the TARDIS makes a blaring sound. The Doctor runs up to the controls as three other people run up, catching you off guard. You stay frozen in place out of complete shock and fear.

"Come on..." the Doctor mumbles as she fiddles with some switches.

"What's wrong?" The other girl asks, who you saw last time, approaches the counsel.

"Someone sent a distress signal and the TARDIS is not cooperating..." the Doctor sighs. "Hang on!" She shouts. The floor jerks underneath you, sending you flying. You fly across the room when the younger guy grabs your arm as he hangs onto one of the shards.

"You good?" He asks. You shove him off out of instinct, and he gives you a confused look. You ignore him and go spinning into the ground as everything stands still. You see the guy give the Doctor a confused look.

"She doesn't like physical contact." The Doctor sighs.

"Ah," he nods.

"Oh, y/n this is Yaz, Graham, and Ryan, fam, this is y/n." They give you a small wave as you look away. You push yourself up as everyone walks out. You are about to walk back down the corridors when the Doctor walks back in. "Don't trust you on your own, come on!" She calls. You are going to ignore her when she calls "Not kidding." You can see it in her eyes. You let out a long sigh and follow her into a wheat field.

"What the-" you look  back at where you just exited, seeing a blue police box. You expected some massive ship, but nope!

"Dimensional Engineering. Bigger on the inside than on the outside." She explains.

"And yes, it is possible." Graham adds. You just nod, going along with it.

"So... where are we?" Ryan asks.

"Looks like Earth, 32 Century. Middle of what used to be France, now known as Tittle, lovely city." She says, waving some buzzing metal thing around. You were in complete shock. First you were staring out at the galaxy, now you are standing in the middle of some futuristic wheat field. "Come on fam!" She says, walking off.

"Just roll with it," Graham shrugs. You wait a few moments before following. As you edge the end of the field you see floating high tech buildings, moving sidewalks, and holographic screens.

"Wow..." You hear Yaz sigh.

"Brilliant!" The Doctor exclaims. You all started to walk towards the city, the Doctor scanning every building you walk past, searching for the source of the call.

Being at the back of the group, it is quite easy for you to wander off. You headed towards a really cool building next to you, it has floating balconies and a waterfall in the front. Just as you pass an alleyway someone grabs your arm.

"They're coming!" He whispers as a smelly and awful smelling hand covers your mouth, preventing you from screaming. "They're coming!" He whispers more frantically.

"Wh-who's coming?" You ask as he pulls away.

"The Angels." Is all he mutters before wandering away, obviously high on something.

"Y/n!" You hear the Doctors voice as she wanders towards your general direction! "Y/n! Oh your okay!" She lets out a sigh of relief. "What did I say about wondering off?" She asks, a little more annoyance in her voice this time.

"I-I saw this building and then this guy-" you start.

"Who? What did he want?" The Doctor asks as she switches back to concerned mode.

"H-He grabbed me and said something about they're coming, something about Angels..." Your voice trails off as you're still shaking.

"Angels..." The Doctors face changes to fear.

"Doc?" Graham waves his hand in front of her voice. She blinks a few times before shaking her head, "Okay, what do we know?" She looks around at the group as you walk toward a smaller looking building with a digital coffee cup on it. "Tittle, France, someone needs help, and Angels. Yeah." She lets out a deep breath as she answers her own question.

"Any guesses Doc?" Graham asks.

"Yeah. Angels. Weeping Angels." You see her face turn to one of sadness.

"You alright?" Yaz asks, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Mhm. Okay, we need answers. We need to find who's in charge." She looks at all of you with a determined look, her accent coming out strong.

"Sorry, couldn't help overhearing. Are you travelers?" A woman walks up to you. She is wearing a white suit with a silver tie and grey/silver glasses, and has her bright blue hair in a messy bun. She's carrying some sort of white holographic clipboard.

"Yeah." Ryan looks up at her.

"Can we help you with something?" The Doctor asks.

"Erm," She sits down and lowers her voice, leaning into the table. "Are you here on account of a... call?" She gives you all a hopeful look.

"Yes we are!" The Doctor stands up.

"Please come with me." She leads you all out to a hovering white car. You all sit in a limo, as the woman instructs the car to go to "Dion."

"So sorry for the secrecy, not everyone is handling the situation well. I'm Celeste."

"Nice to meet you Celeste. I'm the Doctor and this is Graham, y/n, Ryan, and Yaz. What's the situation?" The Doctor introduces all of you hurriedly.

"People are disappearing, statues are disappearing-"

"What statues?" The Doctor cuts in.

"Oddly enough, Angels. It doesn't look like anyone is taking them, they're just gone!" The Doctor goes silent at her words, and you can see a look of sadness on her face.

Suddenly, she stops and you see an Angel, covering its eyes, in the middle of the road.
