The Doctor P.O.V.
As I watched Phoena lay on the bed in the Tardis infirmary I got worried. Castiel had been unable to heal her, but Sherlock had been reading up on her species and now was apparently an expert. John refused to leave as besides myself he was the only certified doctor on board. She had lost a lot of blood according to Castiel, but I had no blood here, let alone he kind she needed. Sherlock said that wouldn't matter as they heal incredibly fast. He had John pull out the bullet and sow up the wound yet she continued to lay there, still as death. Donna stood beside me staring at Phoena.
"She looks so young Doctor..."
"I know. There's no way of telling how old she is, as Sherlock pointed out. However from the way she acts, I'd say 18. In human years of course."
Donna creased her brow but nodded. She was unusually silent. Castiel stood in the back of the room looking at Phoena perplexed.
Almost as if he could read my min he answered my unasked question. "It's strange that she was able to pray for me to come, but I am not able to heal her."
I frowned. "Could I 'pray' and summon you?"
"I do not believe so. Would you like to test it?"
"Sure. I'm always up for an experiment." I said. Anything to distract me from Phoena's still form. Castiel then vanished and I well... prayed.
"Oh Castiel please appear in front of me." I waited a bit and he still wasn't here. I sighed. "Donna it's not working for me. You give it a go."
She looked at me skeptically but nodded. "Alright... Oh Castiel... uh... come here? Uh... please."
Castiel appeared in front of her but I remained looking at her. Stuttering wasn't like my wonderful brilliant Donna. Her knack for never running out of things to say was one of the things that made her my best friend. A noise on the bed made me turn.
"Castiel it didn't work for me." I said
"I am aware. It seems Phoena is conscious again."
"Really?" Donna asked turning, as Phoena's eyes opened.
"Really." Phoena said attempting to sit up. "And I have important News."
