Chapter 8

Tyler, Pond, Jones

The Tardis

"I just roamed through her memories." Clara was hearing someone say as she struggled for consciousness. She remembered passing out earlier, because she had seen someone that was supposed to be dead come back to life. "Her mum died in a car accident a couple of years ago and her dad died by the hands of the Cybermen. I don't think she has any family left."

"I just did a search on her name through the police database and she doesn't have anyone." she heard the woman, Amy confirm. "So what are we supposed to do with her?"

"We'll give her the same choice dad gave us." Clara heard another woman say. "We can either drop her off somewhere or she can come with us."

"Hey, I think she's comin' round." Amy said as Clara's eyes suddenly fluttered open. Once they did, they almost bugged out of her head as she saw the console room. Looking at the girls in turn, she saw Rose wearing a green shirt and leather jacket, who smiled at her. Amy was wearing brown pants, a white dress shirt with a bow tie, and a light brown tweed jacket. Martha, of whom the little girl backed away from, now wore a tight blue pinstriped suit. "It's all right. No one's going to hurt you."

"Aren't... aren't you supposed to be dead?" Clara asked the mocha skinned beauty as she sat up on the couch she found herself laying on.

"Oi, that happens in our line of work." Martha replied as she hunched up her shoulders. "I suppose you heard us talking, yeah?" she asked as the little girl nodded. "So what do you want to do?"

"My... my family is gone." Clara muttered as she started to shake upon thinking of that cold fact. "I don't... I don't know what to do."

"You can stay 'ere with us until you figure it out then." Amy said as she looked at her sisters in turn. Seeing that no one disagreed, she lightly squeezed Clara's hand.

"Now that that's settled..." Rose started as she walked up behind her older sister, who was sitting down on the recliner. "Where do we go from 'ere?"

"That all depends on you two." Martha replied as she stood to her feet and looked at them both. "I've been keeping a secret from both of you."

"A secret?" Amy asked as she and Rose gave each other a look. "What kind of secret?"

"Before... before dad died he whispered a few things to me." Martha started. "One of the things he told me was... he knows who our parents are."

"What?" Rose asked in disbelief.

"He found out a few years after he took us in." Martha confirmed.

"Then why didn't he..."

"Don't be cross with him." Martha cut Rose off. "He had his reasons. For now, I think you'd like to know that your name is Rose Tyler, you're Amelia Pond, and my last name is Jones."

"What's... what's the other secret?" Amy asked, her mind still reeling from what she just found out. She wasn't mad at her father, rather disappointed that he couldn't confide in them about their parents. God I hate secrets.

"The other secret is... he found out what caused the fire at the orphanage." Martha informed them. "So there. Those are your choices. Do we go and see about our parents or do we go back and find out what happened at the orphanage all those years ago."

"You're talking as if you have a time machine." Clara spoke up as Amy and Rose started to genuinely smile.

"That's because you're in one."

As Amy told her that, Clara stood up and marveled at the Tardis once more before looking back at the red head. "So does that mean that we can go back and save my dad and my mum?"

"I'm sorry." Martha said as she watched the girl deflate right in front of her. "It'll take a bit more explaining but your parents deaths are fixed points in time. We can't go back. Believe me I would in a heart beat because our dad..." she trailed off as she then walked over to the console and started to flip switches and pull levers. She had made a decision to where they were going next.

"Where are we going?" Rose asked as the Tardis started to shake.

"It's a surprise." Martha replied as she danced around the console, before looking to the little girl. "Hang on, kiddo. This is going to be a bumpy ride."

As she said that the Tardis shook some more before finally disappearing.

Deep Space

On a massive darkened space ship, a figure re-watched Martha's message of her calling herself the Doctor, over and over again. Finally stopping the playback, it turned it's eye stalk to look at it's brethren.

"THE ENEMY HAS BEEN FOUND." the tall cylinder trash can like being said in an earsplitting high voice. "SET A NEW COURSE FOR EARTH. THE DOCTOR MUST BE EXTERMINATED!"

As the other Daleks started to stir up a sick form of blood lust, the ship turned and started to fly into the direction of Earth.
