"How do you know me?" I asked Robin, as far as I was concerned I had never met this man in my life.

Robin Hood looked confused for a moment before his eyes lit up in understanding. "First time seeing me?" He asked earning a nod from myself. "Does anyone but River know who you really are yet?" I shook my head, Robin sighing in understanding.

"In which case, Effie..." He winked, holding out one of his hands. "I'm Robert Hood, but call me Robin for short." I shook his hand, a small smile lighting up my features. "You'll see me around soon enough, but for now, I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me with these chains." He shook his leg, rattling the chains.

The dragon's roar sounded about making me jump with wide eyes. "No time!" I yelp, taking the chains in my grasp melting them on the spot.

Robin screeched, jumping away from the hot liquid metal, a small piece of chains which weren't attached at anything still cuffed to his leg.

"Thank you, hothead." He smirked, myself scowling at the nickname already disliking it.

"Don't ever call me that again, now come on." Robin laughed at my comment, following me as I peeked out the broken door looking for the dragon.

I nodded when the coast was clear, the two of us sneaking through the hallways. "Not that I'm unhappy to see you, but where exactly is my wife?" He asked me, the two of us pause as the end of the hallways, looking around the corner checking to make sure it was safe to move.

"Well, the dragon kind of saw us, so she left to get a more reliable way home. She doesn't trust her vortex manipulator for three people, so she went to get the TARDIS." Robin nodded at my words, his face lighting up in amusement.

"Let me guess," We ducked behind a wall, seeing the dragon's tail. "The Doctor didn't know you left, again," I smirked at his words, apparently, me randomly leaving with River Song happens a lot in the future. "Are you two even married yet?"

"Uh..." I grabbed his hands, both of us darting to get to the hallway leading toward the stairs. "No, he doesn't know I came, reckon he'll be rather mad when he finds out River and I ditched him and the Ponds again. And, he just proposed..." I proudly held my ring in his face, Robin taking my hand to get a better look at it.

He chuckled at my words, setting my hand down. "Nice, now-" He was cut off by the sound of the dragon, his face going pale as he looked to something over my shoulder.

My shoulders slumped, ears ringing at the loud growling coming from behind. "The dragon's standing right behind me, isn't it?" Robin nodded quickly, myself turning to face the oncoming danger.

An enormous glaring red dragon, with talons the size of hell, and coal black eyes stood on all fours, black smoke puffing out from its flared nostrils. Gulping, I didn't dare move, fearing it would lash out and kill us.
