CHAPTER THIRTY SIX ➸ The Rebel Flesh

SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLE by Muse plays over the TARDIS speakers while Amy and Rory played darts. The couple had set up a dartboard close by the doors. The Doctor is standing by the console, his eyes flickered from the darts-playing couple to the scanner in front of him.

From behind the Doctor, Quinn appears at the top of the stairs. She's wearing her iconic black and green outfit and has a light smile on her lips. With a small skip in her steps, she descended the stairs and jumped down right besides the Doctor. "What's up, Doc?"

The bow tie wearing alien jumped at her sudden appearance, but smiled once he saw her smiling face. "Not much." He shrugged with a chuckle.

Quinn grinned. "So, where are we going next?"

The Doctor's eyes shifted to the couple by the door before they go back to the raven haired. "I thought a trip back to earth would do some good," he smiled. "A little familiarity."

The raven haired woman's smile deflated a little, but she still tried to be optimistic. "All right. Not as exciting as I expected, it might be something that we need, though. Some quiet."

The Doctor smiled, but it didn't quite reach his eyes. Quinn's eyebrows furrowed slightly in sudden worry. Her tawny brown eyes flickered from the man in front of her to the scanner that he had been examining seconds prior. Sensing her stare, the Doctor quickly flicked a switch, this caused the scanner to shut off. Quinn looked back to the Doctor with suspicious eyes. "What are you hiding?"

"Nothing." Shrugged the Time Lord.

Quinn narrowed her eyes at him and opened her mouth to question him again, but he quickly spun around to face the married couple. "Who wants fish 'n chips?" He asked while switching off the music. Rory raised his arm, indicating that he wanted to food. "I'll drop you all off. Take your time. Don't rush."

Rory's eyebrows furrowed as he asked, "Uh, and you?"

"I have things to do, things involving ... other things."

Amy and Quinn exchanged a look, communicating through their eyebrows. The redhead spoke up first, "Well, we'll stay with you. We'll do other things." And she joined Quinn up on the console floor with Rory behind her.

The Doctor shook his head, still focusing his attention towards some useless switches on the console. "Nope."

Amy raised her eyebrows at Quinn before motioning with her head to the alien in front of them. Quinn nodded and took a step towards the Doctor, a hand on her hip and her expression stern. "Doc, whatever you're up to, I would like to be apart of it. Don't think I haven't seen you acting all secretive. Is there something wrong?"
