Donna Noble rolled her eyes at her father when he linked his arm through hers. She changed it hopefully discreetly, and he looked at her in embarrassment. "Sorry," he whispered.

Donna straightened and put on a smile when the organist began to play the Wedding March. She smiled at everyone as her father began to walk her down the church's aisle. A strange noise broke through the music, and Donna looked around in confusion. She then felt a tingling, and she looked down to see gold rushing up her skin. She stopped short and screamed before she disappeared into golden sparkles and zoomed away.

Jessie held her hands to her mouth and turned away from the console. She didn't react when the Doctor squeezed her shoulder sympathetically before moving around the console. She leaned against the coral structures, struggling with the fact that her best friends were now gone.

"How the hell did that happen?" Jessie asked.

"What?" Jessie asked blankly.

The ginger turned to her angrily. "What the hell is this place?" she almost roared.

The Doctor and Jessie turned to each other and said the same thing at the same time.
