Chapter 9: Not The Last

Rory and I followed The Doctor. Though I was unsure about leaving Moriarty alone, but the door was sonic locked and Moriarty was sonic-stuck to the chair, so there was really nothing for me to be concerned about. The TARDIS door closed itself behind me and I walked up to the Doctor who was trying to hold the camera up to his face and fly the TARDIS at the same time.

“Doctor, what are you doing?” I asked.

“Flying the TARDIS, dear, what do you think I’m doing?”

“Let me hold the camera,” I told him as I took the camera from his hand.

“Oi! I was doing just fine with that!” The Doctor complained and reached for the camera, which I held away from him.

“Just fly the TARDIS!” I yelled as I took the camera further away from him. The Doctor muttered something to himself and started up the TARDIS.

I looked down at the camera which was underneath my arm and found that it was pointing at my face. I quickly moved it so that I wouldn’t have Moriarty staring at the bottom of my head while I wandered around in the TARDIS so I set it on one of the benches and sat beside it.

“Where are we going, exactly?” Rory asked. This I thought could be interesting for the audience, so I lifted the camera so it was pointing at the Doctor.

“The first time Moriarty killed. There was no sign of him before that, so I’m thinking he might have an extra terrestrial background,” he smiled, “He killed two very important men in Manhattan, and I’d never realized how important they were until they weren’t there anymore. I always wondered who had killed them, and now that I know, we can go back and stop their deaths.”

“Manhattan? Isn’t that in North America?” I asked.

“Yes, but this was before it was destroyed,” The Doctor explained.

“Well won’t they just get killed when it happens?”

“Their death was the reason that America was infected.”

“I thought that was a fixed point in time! I thought that’s why we couldn’t go back and fix it,” Rory said.

“I lied. I tried to save North America, but it was too much. I couldn’t save them and I was embarrassed. That’s why I lied to you,” The Doctor said sadly.

“Who were they?” I asked softly.

“Sam and Dean Winchester. Their job was to hunt demons and other monsters in America. They were really good at what they did, and I counted on them for so much. Of course they didn’t know I existed, but I knew them. I helped them sometimes, but they never remembered me,” The Doctor said, starting to go quiet and looking down like he always did when he was upset. I immediately turned the camera away.

“Well we’re going to save them now,” I comforted.

“Yes. Yes we are,” he said, perking up a little bit.

“So how do we do it?” Rory asked and I lifted the camera back up into view.

“Just do whatever you can to keep them out of danger. They will protect you before letting it hurt you so distract them while I get at Moriarty. As soon as I get to him, let Sam and Dean go and I’ll leave Moriarty for them,” he explained.

“Can do, Doctor,” I said.

“Rory, take this,” The Doctor said, handing a camera to Rory, “Now turn it on and… Hello Moriarty!”
