Oh Yes I Did.

I briskly caught up with The Doctor, whom was talking to Wilfrid in the middle of the street. He's going to get us killed one day. "-You can't park there, what if Donna sees it?" Wilfrid whispered sharply to The Doctor, pointing to the TARDIS.

"You're the only one, Wil. The only connection I can think of. You're involved. If I could just work out how..." The Doctor leaned close to Wilfrid, slight desperation on his face. "Have you seen anything? Anything strange, anything odd?"

"W-well there was..." Wilfrid paused, causing The Doctor's desperation to heighten. The Doctor took hold of Wilfrid's shoulders but I intervened and removed Wilfrid from The Doctor's grasp. "What?" The Doctor burst out.

"Nah..." Wilfrid exasperated, looking to the ground. "Maybe-maybe it might be something out of the blue- connected to your life, something!" The Doctor looked at Wilfrid with wide eyes.

"Well... Donna was a bit strange. She had a little funny minute this morning all because of that book." Wilfrid nodded to himself. "What book?" I questioned, my chestnut hair covering half of my face from the wind. Wilfrid guided us around the house. "Stay here, Donna is just inside." Wilfrid said, a tad worried before going in.

"He looked the same." I quietly commented wondering if The Doctor would know who I meant. "The Master?" He looked to me, as if he expected me to burst out crying. I scoffed and lightly punched his shoulder. "Yes. Him." I agreed as The Doctor tilted his head. "Suppose he did." The Doctor rose an eyebrow as I smiled. "Except he's blonde." I added, The Doctor and I letting out small laughs.

Wilfrid walked out of the back door, a red and white book with a dark-skinned man on the front. "His name's Joshua Naismith." Wilfrid told us as I looked over The Doctor's shoulder to it. "That's the man The Ood shown us!" I exclaimed, before Wilfrid gave me a warning look and I quieted. "By the what?" Wilfrid frowned.

"The Ood." The Doctor said for me, still staring at the book. "What's the Ood?" Wilfrid muttered to us, confusion softening his voice.

"Just The Ood" I said, curving the side of my lip upwards. "But it's all part of the convergence..." The Doctor trailed off, his mouth sticking to the form of an 'o'. "Maybe touching Donna's subconscious."

The Doctor paused briefly before a grin lit his face up, staring to Wilfrid and I, as we couldn't help but mirror him. When The Doctor smiles, we all smile. "Oh, she's still fighting for us, even now. The Doctor-Donna." He sighed cheerily, but it was broken as Sylvia Noble walked outside.

"Dad, what are you up to-" she stopped abruptly upon seeing The Doctor and I, giving us astonished looks. "You... And you!" She whispered, shock evident in her tone. I took a step back as she took one forward. "What are you doing here?" She scolded, as I glanced around the garden, not meeting her harsh eyes. "Merry Christmas." I told her as she looked to me. "Merry Christmas." She instantly replied before shaking her head.

"But she can't see either of you! What if she remembers?! Sylvia said frantically. "Mum, where are those tweezers?" Donna called from inside the house making my eyes widen, as does Sylvia's. "Go!" She shooed us as I began to walk back to the TARDIS, not checking if The Doctor and Wilfrid were following. "I'm going." I said to them as The Doctor instantly followed, Wilfrid trailing behind The Doctor. "I'm going to." He said hastily, speed walking to The Doctor and I who were already around the front.

"Oh no you don't!" Sylvia whispered to Wilfrid, running after him. "Dad, I'm warning you!" Sylvia stopped at the front of the house. "Bye see ya later!" Wilfrid continued walking, waving behind him at Sylvia. "Stay right where you are!" She began running over again. The Doctor began unlocking the TARDIS. "You can't come with me." The Doctor furrowed his eyebrows at Wilfrid.
