"Brunette once more, beautiful brunette again!" The Doctor sang happily as he danced around the TARDIS control panel

"Brunette once more, beautiful brunette again!" The Doctor sang happily as he danced around the TARDIS control panel.

Today was the day, it was time to get Amelia Pond back, it was time for the Doctor to collect on his debts and bring his army, and it was time for him to know the truth. I decided last night, the second it came down to it, I would not hesitate in using my abilities to my advantage.

I knew it would come down to it, the likeliness that it wouldn't was slim, but I was okay with that. Sure, I could tell the Doctor the truth now, but where was the fun in that? Might as well make my last time with him dramatic, right? Lord knows once he finds out the truth he'd be upset, probably drop me off exactly where he found me.

"What? You didn't like my black hair?" I pouted, pretending to look hurt as I tied my now natural brown hair up and out of my face.

The Doctor who was ecstatic to be getting Amelia blushed shaking his head. "You know, that's not what I meant, love." He pulled a lever causing the TARDIS to shutter, the Doctor resting his hand against the console.

I double checked to make sure my blaster was where it should be, flapping the straps of my flight jacket in anticipation. We knew where Amy was, now all the Doctor had to do was pick up his army members, while Rory and I would be at the storm cage picking up River Song.

"Are we ready to go?" We turned seeing a determined looking Rory wearing his Roman battle gear, sword placed in a holster across his back.

We were hoping River would know where Robin was in order to bring him along to help, but we weren't exactly sure.

"Yeah," The Doctor smiled to himself, brightly looking to Rory. "Well, Rory the Roman let's go get your family." He rejoiced, Rory, shaking his head while looking at both the Doctor and me in a gentle way.

"Our family." His words struck me, the Doctor seeming to be affected in the same way. The Doctor smiled, a few tears leaking from his eyes as he quickly wiped them away in an attempt for us not to see him.

"Our family." The Timelord repeated, smiling slightly dazed. "Family." He repeated to himself quietly before clapping his hands. "Enough of the emotions! You two have a River Song to get, so off you pop!" The Doctor had shoved the both of us out of the TARDIS and into what I noticed was a prisoner in a matter of seconds.

"Wait, Doctor-" I tried, turning around only to see the TARDIS dematerializing causing to me to groan.

"Of course," Rory sighed, before the both of us made our way down the hallway filled with cells. "Isn't this River Song's?" He asked as we approached an empty cell labeled River Song, only to see no one inside.

The little cell looked comfortable enough, for a prison at least. A bed along with a small desk and tiny bookshelf to the side.

"Yep," I smirked knowing River had probably broken out for one of her little adventures with either the Doctor, or me, or both of us. "She'll be back soon." I tilted my head, an alarm beginning to blare around us as I said those words.
