Unrepentant | DOCTOR WHO [ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE]

thirty | special 2009: the waters of mars

After both Annabelle and the Doctor– both in their own respective suits– had come to a halt and stared at a piece of structure that stood several feet down from where they stood, the Doctor said, "Oh, beautiful." Then he turned to Annabelle and asked her, "Have you ever seen anything so beautiful, Annabelle?"

In turn, Annabelle asked him, "Does seeing your own child after giving birth to it count?"

With a mere tilt of his head, the Doctor said to her, "I suppose it does, yeah."

Then he opened his mouth to say something more on the matter, only to stop when he felt something get pressed into his back, shortly before both himself and Annabelle heard a mechanical voice say, "Rotate, slowly. Both of you." While both Annabelle and the Doctor slowly turned around to face what was talking to them, the same voice said, "You are both under arrest for trespassing. Gadget-gadget."

With a sigh, Annabelle said, "Oh, bloody hell. Please don't tell me that this is going to be like that Chantho situation where I have to hear it saying 'gadget-gadget' in every single one of its damn sentences."

With a gun pointed between where both Annabelle and the Doctor were standing, the blonde-haired woman said, "State your names, ranks and intention."

As he stared down at the weapon that the woman was holding, the Doctor said, "The Doctor. Doctor. Fun."

Then the woman looked over at Annabelle, who simply blankly stared at her, only to stop when the Doctor had elbowed her in her side.

After quickly turning her head to look over at the Doctor with a scowl on her face, Annabelle looked back over at the woman and said, "Annabelle Mikaelson. Original vampire. And I suppose you could say that my third answer is the same as the Doctor's."

Before the woman even had the chance to truly respond to Annabelle's choice of telling her what she was, a door to the room had opened and in came a man, who ran over towards them as he said, "What the hell? It's a man and a little girl!" As he made his way over towards them, he said, "A man and a little girl on Mars!"

With that very same scowl on her face, Annabelle yelled, "For the last time, I am not a child, and I haven't even been a child in over a thousand years!"

Then the Doctor turned to Annabelle and asked her, "Is now really the right time to be going on about your frustrations of being called a child?"

While Annabelle simply proceeded to stare at the Doctor with a blank look on her face, the man that had just entered the room and simply chose to ignore the words of Annabelle and the Doctor asked the others that stood in the room, "How?"

A woman in a side ponytail told the man, "They were wearing these things. I have never seen anything like..."

Then the man standing closest to Annabelle and the Doctor asked, "What did Mission Control say?"
