Everyone here is frozen. They are statues, some are secretly weeping angels, and this man is destroying them all. "Right, Alice you wait here it's too dangerous. River you come with me to find this man!" Before I can protest, the Doctor is gone. I'm not staying in a dark cave with a load of deadly aliens for goodness knows how long! I run after the Doctor and River. "Alice!" Shouts River, "we told you to stay there it's dangerous!"
"Well I'm here now so..." I laugh.
"You can't be controlled!" Exclaims the Doctor, "you're going to have to stay very close to us now."
"Who are you and where are you?" Shouts the Doctor, the voice replies and tells us to keep walking.
As we reach a large opening, we see an old man with a walking stick, he carries a gun in his pocket and he looks ancient. 

"Let me explain everything." The man starts telling us the story; "this planet used to be thriving, there were billions of us! I had my own family. But you see, there was no industrialisation so the the only job a man could do was mining. There were millions of us miners down here, there are so many caves. One day, everyone started disappearing from the surface, the women came down to check on their husbands to find them all turned to stone. I was one of the lucky ones. All the women died down here, I missed work that day. I know what froze all those people-" before he could finish I shout, "weeping angels!"
"Yes." Replies the old man.
"By the way, my name is Tobias Archer;  the only remaining citizen of planet Cathak."  He laughed.
"Nice to meet you, my name is The Doctor, this is Alice Cooke; she's quite clever, and this is River song; she is really quite naughty." I roll my eyes, always, always flirting.
"Why are you destroying the statues?" Asks river. "I'm not, I'm destroying the weeping angels, but they keep coming back!"
The Doctor nods, "don't worry, we can change this! Your whole planet will be restored, all the citizens. You will have your family back, the angels will be gone. I am sick of weeping angels! They keep coming back, I've seen so many in my time." I admire the Doctor, this is my first adventure with him but I can see myself having so many more.
