"How are we going to find the Doctor?" Clara asked curiously, the Doctor could be everywhere.

"We're going to call him" Ashildr smirked as she started to fly their TARDIS who knows where.

"Do you think that's a good idea?" Clara wondered, if she called the Doctor he wouldn't recognize her so they would never get into his TARDIS. Clara wasn't sure if he trusted Ashildr that much to let her into his TARDIS and look at his books, so calling him might be not a good idea.

"Yes, but we are not going to call him though" Ashildr said confusing Clara even more.

"We are not?"

"Nope, we're going to let Rigsy call him" Ashildr announced as she landed the TARDIS somewhere.

"Rigsy?" then Clara heard a baby who started to cry outside the TARDIS. She quickly walked out the time machine followed by Ashildr.

"Ssssh, calm down Lucy. Everything is okay" Rigsy assured his daughter as he laid the baby back into her bed. Then he turned towards the two girls and his eyes widened.

"Hi" Clara awkwardly said, Rigsy still thought she was dead.

"C-Clara?" He managed to say looking shocked.

"Yes, she isn't dead. Long story, we'll tell you another time. We need your help" Ashildr quickly said straight to the point.

"But you died, the Doctor saw you die. He brought your body inside. I saw you were dead" Rigsy told Clara.

"Rigsy, I'm not dead but we seriously need your help"

"But-"

"Rigsy, we really need your help" Clara tried again.
"Okay then, with what?" Rigsy asked giving in and wanting to help.

"We need to contact the Doctor, you have to call him" Ashildr

"Wait does the Doctor know you're still alive?" Rigsy asked to Clara, before she could answer Ashildr said:
"It's a long story, do you have the Doctor's number?"

"Yes, Clara gave it to me a long time ago" Rigsy answered getting his phone out. "What do you want me to say to him?"

"Okay tell him..."


10 minutes later...


"#Hello?" Rigsy heard the voice say through the phone.

"Doctor, it's me Rigsy you know-"

"#Local knowledge! Why are you calling me?" The Doctor interrupted him.

"I need your help" Rigsy said, he had put his phone on speaker so Clara and Ashildr could hear what the Doctor said.

"#With what? You didn't get another tattoo did you?" the Doctor sounded annoyed Clara deduced, it was weird  hearing her best friend again after such a long time. It had been years since Clara had last seen him.

"No, but-" Rigsy wanted to continue but then he heard the sound of explosions coming through the phone.
"Where are you?" Rigsy asked curious about the sounds.

"# River, no wait not the yellow one!" the three heard the Doctor say through the phone, he wasn't talking to Rigsy but to someone from wherever he was.

"Doctor?"

"#River why did you cut the yellow one? I said blue didn't I? Why does nobody listen?!?" The Doctor acclaimed through the phone still not talking to them. Clara recognized that name, River.. as in River Song his wife? She thought the Doctor had told her he could never see her again.
