The Tale Of Time {Doctor Who X Reader}

World War Three: Part 2

(Edited to fit the new storyline, friends to lovers.)

{Y/N} and the Doctor look at each other conflicted before they look at Rose, thinking over Jackie's question. 

"Is she safe?" Jackie asks. Rose looks at the two.

"We will always make sure she is kept safe...I promise you...we wouldn't let her get hurt." {Y/N} says looking at the Doctor seriously. The room falls silent, the only sound being the clicking of keys from the other end of the line.

"We're in." Mickey says.

"Now then, on the left at the top, there is a tab, an icon. Little concentric circles. Click on that." The Doctor explains, the sound from a video plays through the speakers.

"What is it?" Mickey asks.

"The Slitheen have got a spaceship in the North Sea and it's transmitting that signal. Now hush, let us work out what it's saying." The Doctor rushes.

"He'll have to answer me one day." Jackie says, referring to the Doctor's silence to her question.

"Hush!" Mickey hisses.

"It sounds like a message." {Y/N} says, listening to the mumbled language.

"What's it saying?" Rose asks.

"Don't know. It's on a loop, keeps repeating." The Doctor explains. A doorbell suddenly rings over the line.

"Hush!" The Doctor places his hand on his chin in thought.

"That's not me. Go and see who that is." Mickey says to Jackie.

"It's three o'clock in the morning." Jackie scoffs.

"Well, go and tell them that."

"If this is a message and the Slitheen are a family business. Why would it be beaming into space, who would they be contacting?" {Y/N} wonders, tapping her fingers against the table in thought.

"All right! I'm coming!" Jackie yells. A few seconds later Jackie rushes back. "It's him! It's the thing, it's the Slickeen!" She says panicked.

"They've found us." Mickey states.

"Mickey, I need that signal." The Doctor says seriously.

"Never mind the signal, get out, Mum!" Rose shouts panicked. "Just get out! Get out!"

"We can't. It is by the front door... Oh, my God, it's unmasking. It's going to kill us." Mickey panics.

"There's got to be some way of stopping them! You two are supposed to be the experts, think of something!" Harriet stresses, pointing at the Doctor and {Y/N}.

"We're trying!" The Doctor shouts as they think over what species the Slitheen are.

"I'll take it on, Jackie. You just run. Do not look back. Just run!" The sound of the front door splitting apart is heard through the speakers.

"That's my mother." Rose says tearfully.

"Right, if we are going to find their weakness, we need to find out where they're from. Which planet. So, judging by their basic shape, that narrows it down to five thousand planets within travelling distance. What else do we know about them? Information!" The Doctor says standing at the end of the table.

"They're green." Rose says.

"Yep, narrows it down."

"Good sense of smell."
