Not Just The Doctor's Companion - The Doctor {1}

Boom Town

  The TARDIS landed in Cardiff. There was a knock on the door and Jack answered it. Jennifer watched him. "Who the hell are you?" Jack asked. "What do you mean, who the hell am I? Who the hell are you?" Mickey's voice asked. "Captain Jack Harkness. Whatever your selling, we're not buying," Jack said. "Oh for god sake. Let us through," Rose's voice rang.

Jennifer smiled. Rose shoved Jack out of the way and walked into the TARDIS. Mickey followed. "Rose!" Jennifer said. She ran and hugged her sister. Rose hugged her back and laughed. "Good to see you too," Rose said. "You two must be Mickey and Rose," Jack said. Jennifer and Rose let go. "Here comes trouble. How're you doing, Ricky boy?" The Doctor asked. "It's Mickey," Mickey said. "Don't listen to him, he's winding you up," Jennifer said. "You look fantastic," Mickey said. Jennifer smiled and Mickey hugged her.

"Aw, sweet, look at these two. How come I never get any of that?" Jack asked. "Buy me a drink first," The Doctor said. "You're such hard work," Jack said. "But worth it," The Doctor said. "Did you manage to find it?" Jennifer asked her sister. "There you go," Rose said with a smile. She gave Jennifer her passport. "I can go anywhere now," Jennifer said. "I told you, you don't need a passport," The Doctor said. "What if we go to another country in present day. I need a passport," Jennifer said. "Sounds like your staying, then," Mickey said. Rose gave a 'don't start anything' look to him. "So, what're you doing in Cardiff? And who the hell's Jumping Jack Flash? I mean, I don't mind you hanging out with big-ears up there," Mickey said. "Oi!" The Doctor said.

"Look in the mirror. But this guy, I don't know, he's kind of-" Mickey said. "Handsome?" Jack asked. "More like cheesy," Mickey said. "21 Century slang. Is cheesy good or bad?" Jack asked. "Depends all on the tone of voice you use," Rose said. "My tone meaning it's bad," Mickey said. "But bad means good, isn't that right?" Jack asked. "Are you saying I'm not handsome?" The Doctor asked. "We just stopped off. We need to refuel. The thing is, Cardiff's got this rift running through the middle of the city. It's invisible, but it's like an earthquake fault between different dimensions," Jennifer said. "The rift was healed back in 1869," The Doctor said.

"Thanks to a girl named Gwyneth, because these creatures called the Gelth, they were using the rift as a gateway but she saved the world and closed it," Jennifer said. "But closing a rift always leaves a scar, and that scar generates energy, harmless to the human race-" Jack said. "But perfect for the TARDIS, so just park it here for a couple of days right on top of the scar and-" The Doctor said. "Open up the engines, soak up the radiation," Jack said. "Like filling her up with petrol and off we go-" Jennifer said. "Into time-" Jack said. "And space," Jennifer, The Doctor and Jack said in the same time. Rose smirked. "My God, have you seen yourselves? You all think you're so clever, don't you?" Mickey said. "Yeah," Jennifer, The Doctor and Jack said in the same time.

The five of them walked out of the TARDIS. "Should take another 24 hours, which means we've got time to kill," The Doctor said. "That old lady was staring at us," Mickey said. "Probably wondering what five people could do inside a small wooden box," Jack joked. "What are you captain of, the Innuendo Squad?" Mickey asked. "Mickey will you stop it?" Rose asked. Jack make a gesture. Jennifer and Rose walked a bit away from the boys. "He's jealous," Rose said. "Mickey? Why would he be?" Jennifer asked. "Jack or The Doctor?" Rose asked with a smirk. Jennifer frowned. "What?" Jennifer asked.

"Kiss. Jack?" Rose asked. Jennifer shook her head a little. "The Doctor?" Rose asked. Jennifer didn't say nothing. Rose's eyes wide and she smiled. "What? The smirked. Jennifer rolled her eyes. "Stop," Jennifer said. Jennifer and Rose got back to the boys.

"What about the TARDIS, we can't just leave it. Doesn't it get noticed?" Mickey asked. "Yeah, what's with the police box? Why does it look like that?" Jack asked. "It's a cloaking device," Jennifer said. "How does it a cloak?" Rose asked as she put her arm around her little sister. "It's called a chameleon circuit. The TARDIS is meant to disguise itself wherever it lands, like if this was Ancient Rome, it'd be a statue on a plinth or something. But I landed in the 1960s, it disguised itself as a police box, and the circuit got stuck," The Doctor said. "So it copied a real thing? There actually was police boxes?" Mickey asked. "Yeah, on street corners. Phone for help before they had radios and mobiles. If they arrested someone, they could shove them inside till help came, like a little prison cell," The Doctor said.
