42 Pt. 4

Martha and {Y/N} run through area 21, meeting up with Riley along the way.

"Exterior airlock open."

"It's the last door. We've got to keep going" Riley says.

"Impact in two seventeen. Primary engines critical. Repeat. Primary engines critical. Survival estimate projection zero percent" the three make it to area 22 when suddenly a voice sounds from behind them, {Y/N} turns to see the Doctor standing a few feet away, she stands in front of them.

"Go" {Y/N} says.

"What?" Martha replies.

"I said go!" Martha looks between the slowly approaching Doctor and {Y/N} before running of with Riley.

"{Y/N}!"

"What are you doing?" she asks looking at the Doctor.

"I can't fight it. Give it back or burn with me. Burn with me, {Y/N}" {Y/N} squints and just as he gets close enough she places her hand over his eyes and pushes him back at arm's length with her other hand.

"Impact in one twenty-one. Life support systems reaching critical. Repeat. Life support systems reaching critical. Impact in one oh six. Collision alert. Collision alert. Collision alert. Fifty-eight seconds to fatal impact"

"Come on, Martha!" {Y/N} groans struggling to keep the Doctor at bay.

"Fuel dump in progress. Fuel dump in progress" the light goes out in the Doctor's eyes, and he keels over, {Y/N} kneels down hugging him "Impact averted. Impact averted. Impact averted."

"Doctor! {Y/N}!" Martha runs towards them and joins in on the hug.

*Time skip*

"This is never your ship."

"Compact, eh? And another good word, robust. Barely a scorch mark on her" the Doctor says patting the TARDIS who hums in response.

"We can't just leave you drifting with no fuel" Martha says.

"We've sent out an official mayday. The authorities will pick us up soon enough" Riley says.

"Though how will we explain what happened."

"Just tell them. That sun needs care and protection just like any other living thing" {Y/N} says as the her and the Doctor walk into the TARDIS, a few minutes later Martha walks in, a short time later the TARDIS stops.

"So, didn't really need you in the end, did we? Sorry. How are you doing?" Martha asks.

"Now, what do you say? Ice skating on the mineral lakes of Kur-ha. Fancy it?" the Doctor asks avoiding the question.

"Whatever you like" {Y/N} steps up to Martha.

"By the way, you'll be needing this" she pulls out a TARDIS key on a chain and hands it to Martha.

"Really?"

"Frequent flier's privilege. Thank you" suddenly Martha pulls out her phone.

"Oh, no. Mum. It's me again. I'm sorry about earlier. Over emotional. Mad day. Yeah. Tonight. Do my best. Er, just remind me. What day is it again? Right. Of course. I'll be round for tea. Roughly. Anyway, I've got to go! See you later. Love you."

*Francine's home*

The blonde woman takes out her ear buds and holds out an evidence bag. Francine drops her mobile phone into it. Two men in black stand silently close by.

"That's all?" Francine asks.

"For now. Have you voted?"

"Of course. Just don't expect me to tell you who for."

"Thanks for all you're doing, Mrs Jones. Mister Saxon will be very grateful."
