Shattering Time [5] (The Parallel Series) ✓

The Beast Below - Two

"There's nothing broken, there's no sign of concussion and yes, you are covered in sick." The Doctor informed Amy glancing over his shoulder seeing the redhead lightly coughing after waking up. The Stone stood by the Doctor who was scanning the door with his sonic.

"Where are we?" Amy asked between coughs while wiping her face.

"Overspill pipe, at a guess." The Stone replied.

"Oh, God, it stinks." She gagged.

"Oh, that's not the pipe." The Doctor flatly informed her.

"Oh." Amy blinked smelling herself. "Phew. Can we get out?"

"One door, one door switch, one condition." The Doctor said flashing a control panel nearby. "We forget everything we saw. Look familiar?" he stepped aside as a forget button lit up.

"That's the carrot." He said turn spun around seeing two of the smiler booths light up.

"Ooo, here's the stick." The Stone grinned slipping her arm into the Doctors walking with him up to the booths. "There's a creature living in the heart of this ship."

"What's it doing there?" The Doctor finished. The heads of the smilers slowly turned to the frowning faces.

"No, that's not going to work on us." The Doctor shook his head at them. "So come on. Big old beast below decks, and everyone who protests gets shoved down its throat. That how it works?" He asked then watched as the frowning faces turned to scowling faces,

"Oh, stop it." The Stone rolled her eyes. "We're not leaving and we're not forgetting.

"And what are you fellows going to do about it? Stick out your tongues, huh?" The Doctor mocked only to blink and slowly step back pulling the Time Lady with him as the booth doors opened as the smilers stepped out.

"Doctor, Stone?" Amy worryingly looked between them not knowing what to do. The three blinked when Liz Ten stepped between the three and shot at both the Smilers making them fall to the ground.

"Look who it is." The Stone blinked at the woman. "Glad to know you do actually have a real face and you're not like one of those" She joked nodded at the Smilers on the floor.

"You must be Amy." Liz beamed at the redhead after nodded at the Time Lady then held out her hand to shake with Amy. "Liz. Liz Ten."

"Hi." Amy shook her hand only for Liz to quickly take hers back wiping the sick onto her clothes. "Yuck. Lovely hair, Amy. Shame about the sick." She then wrapped an arm around Mandy's shoulder who seemed to have went with her. "You know Mandy, yeah? She's very brave."

"How did you find us?" The Doctor questioned.

"Tracker." The Stone rolled her eyes at him bringing out the device as he blinked at her. ""Don't look at me like that sweetheart." She chuckled. "The high council had me making things like this for years, well they tried to make me ones to find you one time but it never worked." She laughed. "They thought I was stupid. Did they learn nothing from my cousin." She snorted.

"You do have an ego at times dear." He fondly shook his head at her.

"Not as big as yours, however, sweetheart." She softly smiled patting his cheek teasingly before she looked at Liz.

"I've been listening in." The woman nodded at the Stone then at both Time Lords. "Nice moves on the hurl escape. So, what's the big fella doing here?"

"You're over sixteen, you've voted. Whatever this is, you've chosen to forget about it." The Doctor said while the Stone slowly shook her head. He definitely didn't see all the clues at times. It was a good job she was with him.
