"Where are we?" Martha asks excitedly when Kas and I land the TARDIS. Before either of us can answer, she lets out a squeal and runs to the door, flinging it open and stepping out.
I shake my head with an amused smile, following after her with Kas right behind me. I pull my black trench coat - courtesy of the TARDIS - tighter around myself and shiver a bit at the cold air. Taking in a deep breath, I grin widely, "smell that Atlantic breeze!" I bounce on my toes, looking around Liberty Island.
"Nice and cold! Lovely!" the Doctor beams, his hands shoved in his pockets as he walks in front of us backward. "Martha, have you met my friend?" he nods behind us with a smirk.
Martha turns around and her eyes widen as she looks up in awe. "Is that...? Oh, my God! That's the Statue of Liberty!" she squeals.
"Gateway to the New World," Kas wraps an arm around my shoulders. "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to break free!"
"That's so brilliant! I've always wanted to go to New York," Martha beams before pausing. "I mean, the real New York, not the new, new, new, new, new..." she trails off, making me giggle.
The Doctor laughs, rubbing my arm when a particularly strong gust of wind hits us. I snuggle into his warmth and he squeezes me before leading me away with Martha on the other side of me. The three of us reach the end of the island, looking out at the Manhattan skyline and I wrap my arms around Kas' waist, letting my light flow around my hands. Kas squirms slightly, making me snicker and he narrows his eyes down at me playfully. I stick my tongue out and he shakes his head, rolling his eyes.
"Well, there is the genuine article," I nod to the city.
"So good, they named it twice," the Doctor smiles, rubbing my arm. "Mind you, it was New Amsterdam originally... harder to say twice," he muses.
"Hm, no wonder it didn't catch on," I snort loudly. "New Amsterdam, New Amsterdam... hasn't got the same ring to it."
"I wonder what year it is, cause look," Martha tilts her head, pointing. "The Empire State Building's not even finished yet."
"Work in progress, still a couple floors to go," Kas nods. "And if I know my history, that makes the date somewhere around-"
"November 1, 1930," Martha cuts in, making me blink and I look over to see her with a newspaper in her hands.
"You're getting good at this," the Doctor smiles over at her before rolling his eyes when he sees the paper as well.
"Eighty years ago..." Martha breathes in awe.
I frown and move out from under the Doctor's arm to take the paper from her. Hooverville Mystery? Kas reads over my shoulder while Martha continues to go on. "It's funny cause you see all those old newsreels in black and white like it's so far away, but here we are! It's real! It's now!" she laughs. "Come on, you," she bumps my hip with hers and I look up with a raised eyebrow. "Where do we go first?" she asks excitedly, grabbing my arm with both hands.
