You all stand in the counsel room, hanging onto pillars as the Doctor pilots the TARDIS. As the shaking comes to a stop, the Doctor runs right to the doors, not even bothering to explain anything.

Rolling your eyes, you follow them out... to a rather normal looking area. There's a grassy area surrounded by walkways, a few buildings, a hospital, a statue.

"Are you going to explain what we're doing here? It looks rather boring." Missy sighs, looking around.

"You remember Amy and Rory?" The blonde asks, everyone nodding (except Izzy). Turning to Izzy, she explains "They used to travel with me. Found them way to far in the future a few trips ago, neither remember what happened." She smiles sadly, turning back to the rest of the group. "I haven't found anything that looks off here, so I figured we'd see what happened ourselves."

"Like a stakeout?" Yaz questions.

The Doctor nods, visibly excited. She takes out her sonic and scans the area, sighing before putting it back in her pocket.

"What if we split up?" Jenny suggests, "we could find them quicker."

"Missy with me, Yaz and Izzy, Jenny with y/n," the Doctor decides, gesturing for Missy to follow her down a smaller cobblestone street.

"Stuck with a bubblehead." Missy sighs, following.

You giggle a little to yourself at her expression.

"Want to check the hospital?" Jenny suggests.

"Sure." You shrug, looking over your shoulder to see Yaz and Izzy haven taken a different street.

Though, when doing that, you see the iron red statue looks slightly different. It's definitely of a person, you know that. However, the head just looks slightly different. But you just shrug it off, running to catch up with Jenny.

"Any idea what we're looking for?" You ask, catching your breath.

"Something that looks off for the time period, either Amy or Rory so we could tail them. Anything different, really." She shrugs.

You nod, still thinking about that statue. It really could just be looking at it from the back, but you swear the head seemed tilted a little differently.

The hospital is crazy busy, a lot of people in the waiting area, several nurses running around.

"Walk like you belong here. We're going undercover." She whispers.

You stand a little straighter, defiantly walking through the crowd of people. Every time someone bumps into you, or even barely misses hitting you, your breath catches in your throat. By the time you get to the double doors, you bend over against the wall, trying not to have a panic attack.

There are bigger problems going on than you having crowd issues.

"Are you alright?" Jenny asks, turning around as she realizes you aren't following.

"Too many people." You sigh.

She nods understandingly.

"Take a few deep breaths." She softly says, "think of something else, what helps?"

You think about your mum, taking short walks with her on the beach, her taking you to the fair. Your dad, how he would take the family on boating trips. You really miss them.

Instead of helping, it just seems to make you sadder, but you stand up, feeling a little better.

"I think the scrubs are down this way." She points at a side door.
