"So how do we find this TARDIS mechanic?" Amy asks. "Simple. We find the Silence, we find the mechanic," I answer. She starts to say something, but before she can the TARDIS's alarm goes off, signaling that the Silence had been located. I let the Doctor check it out, so he won't feel incompetent. "Oh no. No, no, no, no," he mutters to himself, looking incredebly anxious. "What? Doctor, what is it?" I ask. He's not one to freak out over minor things.
I'd also given up on trying to open the locket, passing it off to Rory instead. The Doctor turns and meets my gaze. "Xenon 7," he says. I gasp. "Oh my god," I breathe. "What's Xenon 7?" Amy asks anxiously. "The most dangerous planet in the whole universe. And if the Silence are gathering there, it can only mean one thing," I whisper. "They're building an army," the Doctor says. "With a TARDIS mechanic to boot," I add. "So what do we do? We'll be killed on sight if we go to Xenon 7," I exclaim. The Doctor nods grimly.
"River, Doctor, I've opened the locket," Rory says, handing it to me. I take it from him and stare at it. "How did you manage to do that?" the Doctor asks Rory. "I don't know. It just...happened," Rory mumbles. The locket, by now, was projecting a datee, time, and place. "What does that mean?" Amy asked. I turn to her and grin. "It means that our mechanic found a way for us to land on Xenon 7 safely," I say gleefully, rushing over to the TARDIS and setting the coordinates.
Little did we know that a girl with cropped brown hair and a body covered in silvery scars would be waiting on us.
