supernova (11th doctor)

The Eleventh Hour (pt 3)

"We need a vehicle." He told me, running off again.

I looked around and grabbed his arm back to stop him, pointing at a fire truck. "Found one!" I climbed in and sat next to the Doctor, who took the driver's seat. When he began driving, Rory's phone rang.

"Do you mind?" the Doctor asked me. It took me a moment before realizing that he wanted me to answer it. I tried not to think about it as I reached into his pocket again and took out Rory's phone. I saw that Amy was calling and answered it, holding it up to the Doctor's ear.

"Look in the mirror!" The Doctor told her. I couldn't hear what she was saying, but after a few seconds he spoke again. "Don't worry. I've commandeered a vehicle," he assured her, slamming a button that turned the sirens on. I took the phone back and hung up.

"WHAT'S YOUR NAME?" The Doctor yelled to me over the sirens.

"Oh, um−" I tried, but the phone rang again. It was Amy, of course, and I pressed the answer button and held it up to the Doctor's ear again.

"Are you in?" he asked. I looked at him hopefully. I knew what was happening at the hospital. By now, Amy and Rory had run into Prisoner Zero in the form of a woman and two little girls. It wouldn't be long until things got messy.

"You need to get out of there!" The Doctor told her again. "Amy? Amy, what's happening? Amy, TALK TO ME! Which window are you? Which window?" Eventually they were finished and I hung up. Before I realized it, we were already parked by the hospital.

"You need to tell them to duck!" He told me, heading towards the back of the truck where the ladder was.

"Right!" I nodded, sending a text to Amy on Rory's phone saying 'DUCK!' "You're going first." I told the Doctor, and he nodded and began climbing up the ladder into the 9th floor. I followed after him and we jumped in the hospital window, right behind Rory and Amy who were crouched on the floor.

"Right! Hello! Are we late? No, three minutes to go. So still time." The Doctor walked to face Prisoner Zero again, and just like before I stood by him while Amy and Rory were behind us.

"Time for what, Time Lords?" the Prisoner Zero lady said to us.

"Lords?" I whispered, getting a strange feeling in my chest.

The Lady squinted at the Doctor, and the Doctor smirked. "Take the disguise off. They'll find you in a heartbeat. Nobody dies."

"The Atraxi will kill me this time. If I am to die, let there be fire." There was a menacing clicking to her voice, reminding everyone of the creature behind her and its disgusting teeth.

"Oh-ho kay! You came to this world by opening a crack in space and time. Do it again− just leave." The Doctor insisted.

"I did not open the crack." Prisoner Zero responded.

"Somebody did."

"The cracks in the skin of the universe− don't you know where they came from? You don't, do you?"

I took a deep breath, and closed my eyes, thinking of the adventures ahead for him.

"Oh, but she does, doesn't she? And you can't say a word about it." I shut my eyes tighter, as if it would somehow will the alien away. "What did he say? A blessing and a curse?"

My eyes flew open. "No! What? How do you know that?" I shouted, remembering one of the last words Dylan ever said to me back in Area 51. There was no way this alien could know he said that; no way she could know about my other life. I tried to run to her, but the Doctor grabbed my hand and pulled me back next to him.
