AN: I don't own Doctor Who, or any of the characters. I don't own you either.
Your POV
"Kissogram?" The Doctor questioned, looking at the policewoman.
"Yes, a kissogram!" She snapped back.
"Are we seriously doing this now?" You asked.
"Will you two tell me what's going on?" She asked, looking more at the Doctor than you.
"Why did you dress up as a policewoman?" The Doctor asked.
"You broke into my house!" She cried. "It was this or a French maid!" The Doctor bolted towards the TARDIS, as she followed the pair of you. "What's going on? Tell me!" She demanded, as the Doctor reached the TARDIS.
"An alien convict is hiding in your spare room disguised as a man and a dog, and some other aliens are about to incinerate your house. Any questions?" He explained.
"Yes!" She said.
"Me too." He admitted, trying to get the door to the TARDIS open. "No, no, no! Don't do that, not now!" Upon seeing my confused expression, he explained, "It's still rebuilding, not letting us in!"
"Are you kidding me? We've got no TARDIS? Great!" You remarked, as the message played again. The policewoman grabbed his arm and went to pull him away, when the Doctor held her back. "No, wait. Hang on, the shed!  I destroyed that shed last time I was here, smashed it to pieces!"
"So there's a new one! Let's go!" The policewoman said.
"But the new one's got old. It's ten years old at least!" The Doctor exclaimed, as I noticed the expression on the woman's face. After sniffing the shed for some unknown reason, he added, "Twelve years.  I'm not six months late, I'm twelve months late."
"He's coming." She begged.
"You said six months. Why did you say six months?" He questioned.
"Doctor, we'd better go." You interrupted, as he motioned for you to be quiet.
"This matters, this is important. Why did you say six months?" The Doctor repeated.
"Well, why did you say five minutes?" The woman snapped, suddenly now speaking in a Scottish accent. The Doctor's expression changed suddenly into one of recognition. "What?" He asked.
"Come on." She said softly.
"What?" He repeated.
"Come on!" She yelled, as she started to drag him along. She glanced at you. "You too!" You ran to catch up with them, not quite sure what was going on now. The three of you didn't stop until you reached a small village. "You're Amelia." The Doctor said breathlessly. So this was the infamous Amelia then? "You're late." Amelia replied.
"Amelia Pond, you're the little girl." The Doctor said.
"I'm Amelia and you're late."
"What happened?" He questioned.
"Twelve years." She answered.
"You hit me with a cricket bat!" He cried, as you tried to keep up with the pair of them.
"Twelve years." She repeated, "Twelve years, and four psychiatrists."
"Four?" He questioned.
"I kept biting them." She said. "They said you weren't real. Turns out I just got replaced." She stated, looking at you. You shook your head.
"Not at all, Amelia. I think we've gotten off on the wrong foot. I'm Y/N." You said, offering her your hand. She looked at it, confusion on her face. As she went to take it, something garbled came through the speaker of an ice cream van.
Prisoner Zero will vacate the human residence, or the human residence will be incinerated.
You looked at the Doctor in confusion. "No, no, no. Come on! We're being staked out by an ice cream van?" Amelia asked, as the Doctor ran over to the speakers. "What's that? Why are you playing that?" He asked.
"It's supposed to be Clair de Lune." The ice cream man replied, as the Doctor picked up the radio from the counter.
Prisoner Zero will vacate the human residence, or the human residence will be incinerated.
You looked around, as you realised that it wasn't just on the speakers of the ice cream van. It was being broadcast through every speaker around you. "Doctor, what's happening?" Amelia said. He didn't reply, instead he just ran off and walked into someone's house. Sighing, you and Amelia followed him. Your attention was immediately drawn to the massive eye on the television screen in the corner of the room. "Hello! We're doing a special on television faults in the area." He looked at Amelia briefly. "Also crimes. Let's have a look." He said, taking the remote control off the old woman who presumably owned the house. "I was just about to phone. It's on every channel." The woman said.
"Every channel?" You repeated. "Doctor, how is that possible? Have they hijacked the satellites or something?" The Doctor glanced back at you. "I don't know Y/N. But I intend to find out." You nodded, as he began to flick between the channels.
"Oh, hello, Amy dear. Are you a policewoman now?" The old woman questioned.
"Well, sometimes..." Amy replied.
"I thought you were a nurse?"
"I can be a nurse." Amy responded.
"Or actually a nun?" You looked at Amy doubtfully. Nuns? Really?
"I dabble!" She added. The old woman sighed before asking,
"Amy, who are your friends?" You smiled at her kindly.
"I'm Y/N. Y/N L/N. And this is..." You answered, before The Doctor cut you off.
"Who's Amy? You were Amelia." He questioned.
"Yeah, now I'm Amy." She said.
"Amelia Pond, that was a great name!" The Doctor remarked.
"Bit fairytale." She answered coldly, as that look of recognition flashed in the Doctor's eyes once again.
"I know you, don't I?" The woman questioned, looking at the Doctor. "I've seen you somewhere before."
"Not me. Brand new face." The Doctor said, opening his mouth wide. "First time on. And what sort of job's a kissogram?"
"I go to parties, and I kiss people." Amy replied, awkwardly coughing. "With outfits, it's a laugh."
"You were a little girl five minutes ago!" The Doctor argued.
"You're worse than my aunt." Amy mumbled.
"I'm the Doctor, I'm worse than everybody's aunt." He replied. "And that is not how I'm introducing myself." He added, smiling at the old woman. He picked up a radio from the table, and fiddled with it using the sonic. In a variety of different languages, you realised that the message was being broadcast all across the Earth. "Ok, so it's everywhere. In every language." The Doctor stated. "They're broadcasting to the entire world."
"Yes, but why?" You questioned curiously. The Doctor ignored your question, and opened a window, before poking his head outside.
"What's up there? What are you looking for?" Amy asked. The Doctor returned his head to the inside, and shut the window.
"OK, planet this size, two poles, your basic molten core... They're going to need a 40% fission blast."  He stepped forward, and into the path of some poor man who had entered the house at this moment. "But they'll have to power up first, won't they?" He questioned rhetorically. "So, assuming a medium-sized spaceship, that's twenty minutes. What do you think? Twenty minutes? Yeah, twenty minutes." He turned to look at us with sad eyes. "We've got twenty minutes."
"Until incineration, right?" You asked quietly, and he nodded.
"Are you The Doctor?" The man asked, and the old woman let out a gasp. 
"He is, isn't he? He's the Doctor! The raggedy Doctor!" She exclaimed. You smirked at the Doctor, as you had absolutely no idea what was going on. "All those cartoons you did when you were little. The raggedy Doctor, it's him!"
"Shut up." Amy mumbled.
"Cartoons?" The Doctor asked.
"Gran, it's him, isn't it?" The man asked, as the Doctor sat down in front of the television screen. "It's really him!"
"Shut up, Jeff." Amy said. "Twenty minutes to what?"
"The human residence. They're not talking about your house." The Doctor began. "They're talking about the planet. Somewhere up there, there is a spaceship. And it's going to incinerate this planet."
"Twenty minutes until the end of the world." You softly said. The Doctor looked back at you, getting on his feet. The pair of you left the house, as his expression changed. "Sorry." He quietly said.
"For what?" You asked, "We're going to save the world. I believe in us. We can do it." You smiled at him, as he threw his arms around you, briefly lifting you off the ground. "Come on, let's go and save the world." He whispered, putting you back on the ground. You nodded, attempting to slow down your heart rate.
