"Doctor, she's dying! What do we do?" River asked frantically as I slammed the TARDIS doors shut and made preparations to take off. I paused. "There has to be a hospital in this fleet that could help her," I says, hating the fact that we'd have to go back in there, "we'll have to get to it and help her without being seen." River scoffs. "And here I thought it would be easy," she muttered, lifting the girl up into her arms once more while I pulled up the ship's plans on he scanner and poured over them quickly. Time was of the essense here.
"Here! There's a hospital under renovations in the lower ship decks. It should be empty, seeing as it's lunch time. It's a long shot, but it's the only one we've got. If we took her to Kovarian or the daleks, they'd kill us and take her anyway," I saym throwing open the TARDIS doors. "Shouldn't we plan first?" River asked, stepping out after me with Kira bundled against her chest. "What's the point?" I ask as the doors fall shut behind her, "we get plan, we get there, all hell breaks loose." She nods and manages a small, tight smile. "Good point."
Luckily the hallways and the hospital were empty. Normally, we would have found this susipcious, but we were too worried. "Lay her down on the table and hook her up to a heart monitor," I instruct. "You know how to do that?" She nods, shooting me a smirk. Even with all the panic, she was still my River. "I should hope so, my father is a nurse, after all," she says, hooking Kira up to the monitor.
As soon as we had her hooked up, we got to work. It was hard and I wasn't sure exactly what we were doing, but we managed to save the child.
