The Chin and the Impossible Girl

Concussion part 2

Concussion part 2

As Clara slipped into the entrance of the helter-skelter an old thin man with a jumper obviously from primark, with no teeth and tattoos racing up his body from head to toe, blocked off the entrance to the helter-skelter before telling a couple of eager children that it was closed for the night. The Doctor placed himself on a bench, batting away the empty packets of crisps and containers of ketchup as he waited for Clara. He saw a couple of school children go past as well as a teenage couple screaming out swear words as they wizzed around. Clara must have been coming past soon surely. He felt someone behind him as he turned around. There was a young girl, about sixteen, holding a litter picker and staring at him in a way only a teenager could. The Doctor tried to smile but it felt out of place as he was shooed from where he was sitting. Annoyed he turned back towards the helter-skelter where the old man was closing it down, light turning off. The Doctor spun around looking for Clara calling out her name and running off to search for her.

Clara's eyes flickered open to a blinding pain that made her eyes water. She looked around into pitch blackness and tried to sit up. The pain made her lie down again though as she bit her lip in order not to cry. She tried thinking back to what had happened before, scanning back, trying to think of anything that would leave her a clue to where she was now. Nothing but as she felt her head, where the pain seemed to be originating from she pulled it back to find blood. She cried out as the voice echoed from around her. Wherever she was, she was trapped.

The Doctor ran around the ever closing fair again and again going back to places they'd been before. The chip stand where Clara had eagerly ordered a portion of chips only to spit them out in disgust as they had vinegar on them, the waltz where the spinning motion had had the Doctor walking in uneven lines for the next ten minutes. The ghost train which had Clara screaming before they'd even been though the door, the carousel which had far been the Doctors favourite ride and the orbit ride which was basically spinning round and round. Vertically. After that the Doctor had sworn never to go on any rides again and so their last stop had been the helter-skelter which only Clara had been on. The Doctor panicked then as he realised Clara had gone missing. Riffling through his pockets he pulled out the phone Martha had given him all those years ago he rang Clara's number. To his dismay the ringing noise came from the tiny bag he was holding. The one Clara had handed him before she'd gone into the helter-skelter...

Clara tried not to panic as she lied on the cold hard ground. Her head felt like it was being stamped on by an angry elephant and even moving made it worse. Her eyesight went fuzzy every once in a while and the only light were from the stars that were forming and clouding up her vision. She was feeling sick as well but this was minor compared to her head. She tried to stay awake as she felt tears slipping down her cheek. Helter-skelter. She was on a helter-skelter. No, no going up to a helter-skelter. On steps... Clara tried to reach from more information but a blinding pain stopped her. The nausea was overwhelming now as the stars before her eyes turned purple dancing around as everything turned black again.

Cursing his luck the Doctor raced back to the TARDIS opening the doors with haste and pushing his way in.

"Clara?" he called as he raced around the console. He looked in her bedroom, the library, the bathroom, the swimming pool even. All the places that Clara liked to go in he looked but with no luck. Running back to the main console he pulled the computer across, his eyes darting across the screen. "Search for Clara," he ordered the TARDIS as she obliged obediently a message appearing on the screen.

'No female humans found,' The Doctor sighed shortly at the message pasted across the computer screen.

"Widen the search to the funfair," the Doctor said after a couple of seconds of thinking.
