A/N: Hello! *smiles and waves cheerily*

I'm glad to see that y'all liked the previous episode. And I was super excited to read your reactions to Mr. Lucius Harper. I will say that you'll be seeing Mr. Harper again at some point, but I won't tell you exactly when. :) It'll be a surprise.

Anyway, time to keep going.

NOTE: See the picture above for a look at Lexi and Sky's outfits for this episode.

Oh! And of course...

Guest Starring:
RICHARD MADDEN as SKY

I was super excited to write this episode. I mean, Sky gets trapped in the TARDIS with Amy and Rory. And Lexi? Well, she has an interesting time getting to know Idris.

Time to see how all that goes down...

Enjoy! 😘

---------------------------------

Inside, TARDIS, Console room...

"Then we discovered it wasn't the robot king after all, it was the real one." The Doctor explained as he was regaling Rory with an adventure. "Fortunately, I was able to reattach the head."

Rory looked to Amy and Lexi as they came down the stairs. "Do you two believe any of this stuff."

"We were there." Lexi replied as they passed him.

"Oh, it's the warning lights. I'm getting rid of those, they never stop!" The Doctor said, slapping the console.

Sky rolled his eyes, lowering a book from in front of his face as he sat in a jump seat. "Not the best idea."

Rory went and caught up with Amy and Lexi as they headed down another set of stairs. "Hey. You're both still thinking about it, aren't you?"

"Shhh!" Amy whispered. "We saw him die!"

"Yeah, 200 years in the future." He whispered back.

"That doesn't matter." Lexi whispered. "It's still going to happen."

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Everyone was alerted to the sound of knocking on the other side of the TARDIS door.

The Doctor whirled around to face the door, Sky slamming his book shut and standing up as Amy, Lexi and Rory came and joined them by the console.

"What the hell was that?" Sky asked.

"The door." The Doctor answered, walking slowly towards the door.

"It knocked?" Lexi tilted her head as she took a couple steps down towards the door.

"Right. We are in deep space." Rory stated.

"Very, very deep." The Doctor agreed.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

"And somebody's knocking?" Sky questioned.

The Doctor slowly opened the door and smiled. A small box was floating there. It was from the inside.

"Oh, come here." The Doctor grinned. "Come here, you scrumptious little beauty!"

He reached out a hand but the box whizzed by and into the TARDIS.

"AHHH!" Lexi's eyes widened as it flew straight at her, hitting her in the chest and making her instinctively grab on to it before it pulled her off the ground and flying her around the room. She had a death grip on it. "Doctor, make it stop! I don't like this!"

Everyone watched with wide eyes as it flew around the time rotor, Lexi squealing when it flew towards the Doctor.

She let go, landing with a thud on her back by the stairs that led up to the console as the box flew towards the Doctor, him catching it between his hands.

"For lack of a better word: Ow." Lexi said, wincing in discomfort as she propped herself up on elbows, glancing over at the Doctor. "Whatever the hell that is, it better be good."

"You okay?" Sky asked, coming over to her, extending a hand to help her up.

"Yeah. Fine." She said, taking his hand and standing up.

"A box?!" Rory asked, surprised.

"Doctor, what is it?" Amy asked as Sky and Lexi came to stand by them again.

"I've got mail!" He answered, walking back to the console. He glanced at Lexi. "You sure you're okay?"

She rolled her eyes. "Yes, I'm fine."

He nodded, before resuming what he was doing. "It's a Time Lord emergency messaging system. In an emergency, we'd wrap up thoughts in psychic containers and send them through time and space. Anyway, there's a Time Lord out there, and it's one of the good ones!"

"You said there were no other Time Lords left." Rory told him.

"There are no Time Lords left in the universe, but the universe isn't where we're going." He responded, throwing the box to Lexi. "See that snake? The mark of the Corsair. Fantastic bloke. He had that snake as a tattoo in every regeneration. Didn't feel like himself without the tattoo. Or herself, a couple of times. Ooh, she was a bad girl!"

The TARDIS began to spark and shake, making everyone hold onto the console.

"What's happening?!" Lexi shouted.

"We're leaving the universe!"

"How can you leave the universe?" Amy asked.

"With enormous difficulty!" He answered. "Right now I'm burning up TARDIS rooms to give us some welly. Goodbye, swimming pool, goodbye scullery, sayonara, squash court seven!"

The TARDIS then suddenly stopped with a jolt.

"Okay. Okay." Lexi panted, pushing off the console. "Where are we?"

"Outside the universe, where we've never, ever been." The Doctor said just as the power wound down, the lights dimming.

"I'm gonna say that that's not meant to be happening." Sky said quietly, glancing around.

"It's the power. It's draining." The Doctor, trying the controls. "Everything's draining! But it can't. That's...That's impossible."

"What's that?" Rory asked him.

"It's as if the matrix, the soul of the TARDIS, has just...vanished."

Lexi tilted her head in thought.

"Where would it go?..."
