"Oh I hate you." Celestia rolled her eyes as she and her brother exited The Tardis.

"No, you don't." The Protector grinned.

"Well The Tardis started decorating herself again so we're stuck here thank you very much."

"The Doctor will take care of us don't worry." The Protector said, looking much calmer now.

"Are you alright?" Celestia checked her brother.

"Much better." He nodded. "Can you sense his location?"

"He's close but I can't tell." Celestia said. "Oh I think this way." She pointed to a door. Then they entered the building.

"Doctor?" Celestia shouted. "God, please be here." She said repeatedly.

"I guess someone missed me." The Doctor said from behind.

"Doctor." Celestia breathed as she went to hug him. "Yes, I did." She hid her face in his neck.

"I missed you too." The Doctor said as he did the same.

"Oh you two are so cute." The Protector said sarcastically, making them pull apart.

"Shut up." Celestia rolled her eyes.

"Protector?" The Doctor asked.

"Yeah it's me. I've just regenerated, what do you think?" The Protector asked as he pointed to himself.

"You look nice." The Doctor said. "What are you two doing here?"

"What are you doing here?" Celestia challenged him.

"There was a time distortion and we crash-landed to this place. Next thing I know is that someone named Crane says he is The Doctor and I'm not. Also they made me believe for a second that I was in hell." The Doctor explained.

"Oh sweetheart, I'm so sorry." Celestia said as she went to hug him again.

"I'm sweetheart now?" The Doctor asked cheekily.

"Shut up." Celestia rolled her eyes. "I feel bad."

"You didn't do anything." The Doctor frowned.

"I could have come earlier." Celestia sighed.

"Where were you anyway?" He asked, as he let go of her to take her hand.

"Long story short, Reagan tried to start a rebellion." Celestia grinned.

"I'm not even surprised." The Doctor stated.

"No one is." Celestia giggled.

"How did this Crane person believe that he is you?" The Protector asked suddenly.

"The temporal field was spilling out from everywhere, and the already raw and damaged nuclei created a link between the two people rather than me and The Tardis." The Doctor began to explain. "A vast swathe of the my memories and thought patterns would have flooded into his mind, wiping out what was already there and turning him into a copy of me."

"My worst nightmare." Celestia sighed. "Multiple versions of you in the same room."

"I'm not that bad." The Doctor protested.

"Of course not." Celestia rolled her eyes.

"Come on. We have to find Brigadier and Charley." The Doctor said. "You're up for this?" The Doctor questioned The Protector.
