"You have eight suitcases?" Harry asked, looking at the eight suitcases that Mr. Monk had packed, and placed in the Tardis, "What's in them?"

"Oh, food, water, clothes, pillows, wipes, sheets, toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash-"

"Mr. Monk, they don't need the full list!" Natalie interrupted Mr. Monk. She had one duffel bag from her car, which was filled with her clothes, a book, and a picture of her daughter Julie, with her deceased husband Mitch. She also had her purse.

"You know, you only need clothes, we have all that other stuff on the Tardis." Rose said.

"Well," Mr. Monk said, "I prefer to have my own stuff."

"But we have all that stuff on Tardis." Rose repeated confused.

"Well, I have my own. So I might as well use them." Mr. Monk replied. Rose opened her mouth to reply, but Natalie interrupted her, "It's best not to ask. You'll be less confused." Natalie said. Rose nodded, still bewildered. The Doctor closed the Tardis doors behind Natalie and Monk.

"So, where are we going again?" Mr. Monk asked.

"We're going to the other guardians." Jack replied, "At the North Pole." Suddenly, Rapunzel groaned in pain, and her eyes fluttered open.

"Rapunzel?" Jack said, kneeling down next to Rapunzel.

"Where am I?" Rapunzel asked, peering dizzily around the room.

"You're in the Tardis." The Doctor replied, crouching down next to Rapunzel too, "How are you feeling?"

"Really dizzy." Rapunzel said, putting her head in her hands.

"Can you stand up?" The Doctor asked.

"I think so." Rapunzel answered, putting her hand against the wall, and slowly standing up. She stumbled back a few paces into Jack, "Sorry." She mumbled, as Jack steadied her. She glanced around the room, and then her eyes landed on Mr. Monk, "Wait a minute," Rapunzel said, staring curiously at Monk, "You're the persnickety man from my dreams!"

"Yes, I am the persnickety man." Mr. Monk replied, twitching.

"You got that right!" Natalie chuckled. Rapunzel smiled slightly as she stumbled to a nearby chair, and sat down.

"Where are we going?" Rapunzel asked.

"The North Pole." The Doctor replied, as he fiddled with the controls. And then with a,

BANG!

They took off. Everyone stumbled back, and then there was a gigantic,

CRASH!

And they landed. The Doctor rushed over to the door, and pulled it open. "Welcome to the North Pole!" He said, turning back to the others grinning, and then stepped outside, "Last one out of the Tardis! Don't forget to close the door!" He called over his shoulder. Rose rushed after him, along with Harry, Ron and Hermione. Adrian Monk and Natalie, followed them, leaving Jack and Rapunzel alone in the Tardis.

"Can you walk?" Jack asked, turning to Rapunzel.

"I'm fine, Jack." Rapunzel sighed, standing up, "My vision's clearing up." She remarked, walking shakily towards the door. Once she had reached the door, she stopped dead in her tracks, and stared at the floor.

"What's wrong?" Jack asked, standing next to her.

"I'm, not in my tower." Rapunzel breathed, still staring at the wooden floor outside the Tardis, "This is not my tower!" Jack stepped out of the Tardis, and faced her,
