"Hello." Celestia said as she approached cautiously. She couldn't help but smile at the sight of him.

The Doctor was taken aback to see her after weeks. He immediately collected himself knowing if he didn't say anything now, she would leave again.

"Hello." he gave her a genuine smile, walking up to her.

"You have regenerated then." Celestia said, examining his new body.

"Yes." The Doctor confirmed.

"You look nice." Celestia said with honesty.

"Thank you. You look lovely too." The Doctor told her, feeling all kinds of emotions. It didn't occur to him how much he really missed her until he saw her. He wanted to hug her tightly and never let her go but this was neither the time nor the place. Plus he didn't know how she would react.

"Thank you." Celestia said. "You really didn't deserve to regenerate like that." She said after giving a long sigh. "I'm sorry that you had to go through it on your own."

"It's okay." The Doctor reassured her. "You two are here now and I'm feeling much better already." He said as he took her hand in his, smiling softly when she didn't back down. "You don't have to be sorry."

"Wait a minute." Grace interrupted them. "How do you know what happened to him?" She quickly questioned. "I mean you just got here."

"Well, my brother and I are Time Lords who have magical powers." Celestia began to speak. "We sensed that there was something wrong with the eye of harmony and we decided to check it out with by using our powers. After we saw that The Doctor was in danger as well, we tracked him down and came here directly." She looked at the man in question with a big smile.

"I think we should introduce ourselves as well." The Protector cut in. "I am the Protector and this girl here is my twin sister, Celestia." He introduced.

"Oh." Grace said as she came to the understanding that all Time Lords had weird names. "My name is Grace." She introduced herself. "Grace Holloway."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Grace." The Protector said as he shook her hand.

"Yeah and thank you for not leaving him alone." Celestia said as she looked at the direction of The Doctor, who was still holding her hand.

"I'm glad to be of help." Grace smiled warmly.

"So, where were you going before we arrived?" The Protector questioned the Doctor.

"There is a beryllium clock in the Institute of Technological Advancement and Research. I need to get it so I can close the Eye of Harmony in The Tardis and get The Master off this planet." The Doctor explained quickly to the twins.

"Oh, boy." Celestia began to panic as she listened to what happened. "We have to act quickly then." She declared. "Do you guys know how to get to this place?" She asked to the group.

"I do." The Protector replied quickly. "Follow me Doctor." He said. Then he took one motorbike, The Doctor took the other. Celestia jumped on the motorbike with her brother whereas Grace did the same with the Doctor. They all started driving off.

"Oh great. I finally meet the right guy and he's from another planet." Grace said after The Doctor and The Protector started driving extremely fast. After hearing this, The Doctor couldn't help but frown. They only met a few hours ago. How could she think that he was the right guy? 'Bit quick to jump to conclusions' he thought to himself. He decided not to say anything and continued to drive. He hoped that Celestia didn't hear what Grace just said. This was the first time in weeks that they were talking and if she thought that there was something going on between him and Grace, she would leave him immediately after they defeated the Master. He knew that she was jealous of the companions that would try to be close with him even if she didn't say anything. So having someone who called him the right guy would certainly make things worse than they already were.
