My fingers rapidly set the monitor up, checking to make sure the Doctor won't fall to his death. The rabbits were all around their little control center and the Doctor tiptoed in with his hands in the bunny thing.

The rabbits only noticed when he was about to attach it. The Doctor attached the device pretty quickly and was about to run, but the leader rabbit grabbed him.

The device let out a loud BEEP! and they were gone. I froze in shock. He was gone, in who knows where with the who knows what. I immediately composed myself and went to the counsel to check the coordinates.

The Doctor had set it for deep space. Child's play for me, but I might need backup. Amy's and Rory's room. God knows what they've been doing the whole time. In an act of courage, I flung the door open to see the Ponds in bed.

In case you couldn't tell what I meant, I meant in bed.

"MY EYES! MY POOR VIRGIN EYES!" I ran back outside and shuddered. "Once you guys are ready, I need you in the counsel room! Not a drill! I will put the fire alarm on if I have to."

They joined me in a couple of minutes. "Virgin eyes?" Amy asked groggily. Wow, Rory must not be exciting. "Is that necessary?"

Rory agreed, "Yeah, it's-"

"No!" I cut him off, "I would not like a descriptive phrase to explain why Amy is so tired! No thank you. But I do need your help."

She smiled knowingly at Rory. "Ah, we knew this day would come," Amy said suggestively. She knew that the Doctor would be taken by space rabbits?

Rory placed his arm around my shoulder like he was my brother. "Don't worry, Celeste. This is a perfectly natural thing." I stared at him weirdly.

"Uh, I don't think it's natural."

"Well, it is," Amy countered, "It's normal, healthy even."

I stared at her weirdly. "In what universe is this healthy?"

They looked at each other. Amy started, "I'd think most-"

"Probably all. Ok that's not important," Rory changed topics, "Now you just need to talk to the Doctor-"

"I can't," I stated clearly.

"Ok, it might seem embarrassing, but you-" He stopped when I giggled. "What?"

"Yeah, it's embarrassing for him," I chuckled, "Usually, they're quite small, but he encountered a huge one."

"Oi, virgin eyes, eh?"

"What? What are you talking about?" I paused as they looked at me. "Cause I'm talking about the Doctor being taken by space rabbits and we have to save him," I continued awkwardly.

The Ponds looked shocked. "That's-that's not what we were talking about," Rory stuttered.

"What were you talking about?"

"Uh-uhhhhh," she stared at Rory, with embarrassment in her eyes. "We were giving you the-uh- talk."

I waited for her to continue. "What talk?"

"The talk that....humans have when-um- people start getting urges to-uh- do what you saw Amy and I doing." I looked at them in horror.

"People get urges for that?" I asked in disgust.

"Yep," Amy answered casually, "We thought when you were talking about 'small ones' and 'big ones', you were talking about the Doctor getting one of those urges."

I shuddered again. "Oh, God," I grimaced, "Tell the Doctor about this and I'll personally leave you with the rabbits." They nodded, Rory more embarrassed than Amy apparently. "Moving past that, the Doctor is with space rabbits!" I repeated.

"Yeah, we got that," Amy followed me around the counsel, "What do we do?"

I smiled. "We barge in," I explained, "With no discernible plan and somehow save the Doctor along the way by accident." Before we left, I took off the ruined sundress and put on a white crop top. The Ponds were waiting at the door for me. "What? You couldn't go out?"

"We can't."

My hand pushed against the door, ignoring their protests. "Well, why not?" There were lasers pointed at me, ready to shoot. Rabbit security system. I froze, still laughing slightly. "This is the 'screwing up' part of the unknown plan."

Rory was incredulous. "I don't recall you mentioning this!"

"Come on! What's the fun in knowing everything?" I muttered playfully, "Gets in the way of screwing up." We waited for the rabbits to come and come they did. "Ah, about time," I said, "My friends and I were getting impatient. What can be so exciting on this ship that makes three stowaways from a blue box trifle? Brilliant metal work, though. Top notch." I made an 'A-Ok' symbol and nodded impressively.

The rabbits looked at me curiously with their now evergreen eyes. "Are you really complimenting space rabbits?" Rory asked nervously. I gestured to the wall, still impressed. She nodded slightly, leaving Rory by his lonesome.

Once the admiring was done, I stared deep into the rabbit's eyes and gravely demanded, "Take me to your-."

"We will take you to our leader," a robotic voice cut me off, coming from the rabbit. They must assume we wouldn't know the language.

I pouted. "It's not fun if you do that," I whined, "I've never said it."

"It's like he never got captured," He whispered. Amy snickered quietly, but stopped when the rabbits led us into a throne room of sorts. Banners, royal decor, a throne, all that jazz.

A person sat on throne, looking out of place. My eyes narrowed. The Doctor smiled and waved. "I've got a crown," he shouted, pointing to the crown of gold around his head, "I've always wanted a crown! Crowns are cool." Oh, why not?

"How on Earth did you become leader of the space rabbits?" I asked. The Ponds seemed equally as confused.

He shrugged. "I don't really know," the Doctor admitted, "Lots of technical stuff, vows and the such. Shouldn't get into all that."

"Ok," Rory agreed, "New question; why?"

He scratched his neck. "Ah, I didn't have a choice. Plus, a crown? Why wouldn't I?"

"You'd run this place to the ground," I scoffed. Amy gave me a 'stop talking' glare.

"Oh, really?" The Doctor stood up from the throne. "I can command this ship perfectly. They'll reach home soon."

"Who's they?"

"Oh, just rabbits."

Amy pointed out, "They look like Earth rabbits, just....bigger."

"No, the rabbits on Earth are babies of these," The Doctor explained, "They stay in infancy for large periods of time, but Earth is not suitable for long life. Might have a problem in the future, but no use worrying about that now."

My patience was wearing thin. "You're wasting my time," I declared, "I'm leaving."

"Actually, the rabbits taken the TARDIS into the most secure part of the ship," the Doctor apologized, "Sorry, but we're all here until home planet is in view!"

Well, this should be interesting.

Ok, another bad update, but I still hate school
