The Doctor's Daughter

Chapter 4

River Song.... River Song.... But she looks... We'll how would I really remember if... No, they just look alike. I smile a nervous smile at her and slowly approach the controls, where she stands smiling. "What do you mean, save the doctor.?" I ask her, untrusting.

"Well, the Silence and the Angels made a bet type of thing with him. More like a choice. Save you from horrible fates and answer the most dangerous question, the question that should never be answered, or let you die, and leave. He tried to outsmart them, but the last trick he couldn't let go. So he saved you, and will have to deal with the horrible consequences worse then death while he answers the question. So now, we are going to save him before all he'll breaks lose." She beams down at me like this is no big deal.

"But, a man was trying to save me from the weeping angels, he was going to save me, and them the doctor stopped him and saved me himself. There was no last trick he was saving me from, so why?" I say confused.

She looks uncomfortable and doesn't meet my eyes. "Just... Forget about that now. You can ask the doctor when we save him." She pulls a lever and the TARDIS makes a groaning, wheezing sound again; we are moving. River points to a door in the corner that certainly wasn't there before.

"That's the weapon room. Go pick something that you think you will fight best with." I slowly walk up to the door and open it, my eyed widening in awe. It's spectacular. Rows and rows of different sorts of weapons from different planets lining the walls. And it never ends; it is like one, infinite room of weapons. I begin to walk in, my heels on my combat boots slapping the ground. Looking around at the weapons, two particulars stand out to me: an ax with a sharp blade made from an unknown substance, and something I cannot specifically identify. It is a long, rusty pole with a circle on the end facing the person you would point it at. I touch the circle, and screech as I drop the weapon. My red, burnt finger begins to swell. Man, that's hot!

I pick it up again. And, suddenly it just feels right. Like I know how to use it. I can thrust the circle and burn someone to the point of death, or at least until I can get my ax through them. And the circle on the end of the pole not only is hot, but it's also a mirror. The weeping angels will look into it and instantly freeze into stone, forever unmoving this time.

Taking my two weapons, I also take a bullet proof vest off of a hanger near the door and put it on, and take an old fashioned sword and put it in the sheath I put around my waist. I don't remember what the Silence look like, but I actually have something that will help; a camera. I still have my marker to draw tallies of how many times I'll run into them, and quickly rub off the remaining marker on my arms.

I finally, with one last glance, leave the room of war-like materials and go up to River. She looks down at me, with a sword, a burner, an ax, a bullet proof vest, a marker and a camera, and I swear she almost toppled over with surprise. "Are-are you sure you are going to be able to use all that?" She asks, raising her eyebrows. I firmly shake my head no, and she smirks. "Excellent." River says. "Now let's to save our Doctor."
