The Doctor closed the door solemnly, saying goodbye was not one of his favourite pastimes, especially when it was someone that he cared for and respected, he would miss Sarah Jane Smith, but something in his gut told him that he would see her again, it just wasn't sure when. He turned to face the remaining control room occupants, none too shocked to see only Zoey and the Master, who were sitting whispering to each other on the captain's chair. The doctor proceeded to walk over to them only to discover he had walked into a danger zone, the two were having another argument and this could turn nasty, he wanted to get out of here before either of them involved him, they both knew how to press all the right buttons and guilt trip him into joining the argument. He carefully walked toward the corridor, congratulating himself on his ability to sneak past them he took another few steps before he heard his name being called from the control room, damn, maybe his thoughts of becoming resident ninja were ill placed. He grudgingly turned back around and scrapped his heels as he once again found himself in the control room.

"You called" he said dryly, his body itching to run as far from this argument as he could.

"Yes I did" Zoey replied placing her hands on her hips, looking far more elegant than should be possible, her shocking blue eyes were narrowed, and her eyebrows knitted tightly together, her brown hair falling deliberately on her shoulders. "I need you to tell me that I am right"

The Doctor grinned this could be easier than he thought, going out on a limb he answered her "You're right" the triumphant smirk was wiped off his face as quickly has it had appeared as her expression became murderous. He heard a undisguised snigger come from the master and the doctor was glad he wasn't as close to Zoey as the master was at that exact moment, Zoey turned and gave him an ice cold stare, her fists clenching as her gaze flicked to the mallet and back to the master, causing the latter to abruptly stop sniggering and gulp audibly.

"You don't even know what I'm right about" Zoey ground out through gritted teeth

"Well then tell me" The Doctor said in defeat, deciding that just going along with this was easier than fighting.

"Why do you always take her side" The Master gave out a petulant cry, sounding very much like a five year old.

"I don't always take her side, only, sometimes" the Doctor reasoned

"You do always take her side" the master complained frowning at the doctor

The Doctor stared at the two disbelievingly, one minute he is asked to prove Zoey right the next minute he is the one in the wrong and the direction of the argument has shifted to him, it just isn't fair. He started hoping that someone, anyone would save him from this nightmare, he didn't care who at the moment, ok that was a lie he wanted it to be Rose, but even Mickey the Idiot would be welcome right about now.

And then as if by some stroke of pure luck, Mickey stormed into the control room, the Doctor breathed a sigh of relief, the Master groaned and Zoey gave a false smile in Mickey's general direction, the three time lords stopped their fighting and turned their attention to the annoyed human.

"What's wrong now Mickey" The Master sighed, showing his usual level of tolerance for the human

"Nothing to do with you" Mickey spat sharply, not seeing how Rose could think so highly of the Master.

"Hey! He's only asking no need to bite his head off" Zoey spoke up causing an incredulous snort form the Doctor "What?" she snapped at him

"You were fighting with him not five minutes ago" the doctor said completely lost with whatever was happening in front of him

"Yeah yeah that was then this is now" she sighed before turning to Mickey and demanding "What is wrong?"

Mickey shrugged, he didn't know how to describe what was wrong with him, it was Rose mainly, she was acting guiltily and as if she didn't want him around, like he wasn't good enough for her. And he was unsure of the company that she kept, the Doctor seemed to be a threat to his and Rose's relationship, whatever that was at the moment, Zoey just seemed cocky and too smart for her own good, and the Master well, where did he start, he had seen him in that school, the master had almost been a different person, when the Krillotane things were after him, he had this whole presence that made Mickey want to turn and run.

"Well thank you for that Mickey that was very insightful, nothing like a shrug to tell everyone what's wrong with you" the Master said, annoyance evident in his voice

"Anyway" the Doctor drawled trying to avert another argument, we should be landing right about..." he was interrupted by a violent shaking and a sharp stop which threw everyone to the ground, he could hear Zoey grumbling and Mickey cursing under his breath.

The Master stood up quickly dusting himself down and turning to the doctor offering a patronising "Now?" the doctor simply glared and ran to the doors, at this moment Rose stormed in.

"What the hell are you all doing? I leave you for 10 minutes and this is what happens" she said her hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised at the four people before her.

"We've just landed" Zoey stated "As you can tell, the doctor is still incapable of driving" allowing herself a sly grin as the doctor grimaced and walked to the door, purposefully ignoring the other occupants.

Well thats it for this chapter please review and tell me what you think, it will get better i promise!!
