IN THE locker room, the Doctor was looking for new clothes, throwing around the ones that 'weren't to his taste', to put it nicely.

"To hell with the raggedy. Time to put on a show" he rambled, turning around quickly to wink at the two girls, only Pip was the only one to catch it. Rory grew rather uncomfortable, for the Doctor had started to change, right in front of them.

"You've just summoned aliens back to earth. Actual aliens, deadly aliens, aliens of death, and now you're taking your clothes off. Amy, hes taking his clothes off" Rory covered his eyes in attempt to block his vision.

"Turn your back if it embarrasses you" the Doctor replied. Rory immediately turned around, not believing he didn't actually think of that before. He noticed however, that the two girls hadn't moved.

"Are you not going to turn your back?" He asked the two, to which they both smirked.

"Nope" they replied, smiling to themselves.

The Doctor then made his way towards the roof, Amy immediately following. Pip stayed behind to grab Rory's wrist, for he hadn't realised the two had already left the room. Rory sent a thankful glance toward her, to which she simply smiled.

The pair made it to the roof, where the eyeball, which they now knew as the Atraxi, was hovering just above them, the Doctor in front of them. He had multiple ties draped around his neck, which Pip took note that he didn't really look like a tie person, he never has.

"So this was a good idea, was it? They were leaving" Amy shouted at him, for she had joined Pipa and Rory further back.

"Leaving is good. Never coming back is better. Come on then! The Doctor will see you now" he bellowed, the Atraxi dropping onto the roof to scan him.

"You are not of this world" the eyeball boomed, making the Doctor smirk in return.

"No, but I've put a lot if work into it" he answered back, now looking at the selection of ties he had picked up.

"Oh, hmm, I don't know. Which one do you think?" He asked the Atraxi, whom obviously ignored his question.

"Is this world important?" The Atraxi asked the Doctor, making the Doctor almost grin, though he didn't.

"Important? What's that mean, important? Six billion people live here. Is that important? Here's a better question. Is this planet a threat to the Atraxi? Well come on, you're monitoring the whole planet. Is this world a threat?

A projection of the entire world was then shown, the three humans behind the Doctor looked at it in amazement.

"No" the eyeball replied.

"Are the people of this world guilty of any crime by the laws of the Atraxi?" He gave a second question.

"No" the Atraxi gave the same, short answer.

"Okay. One more. Just one. Is this world protected? Because you're not the first lot to come here. Oh, there have been so many" the Doctor was now smiling, as the projection that was playing beforehand had changed, to display some rather odd looking metal creatures, Pip finding they were oddly familiar.

"And what you've got to ask is, what happened to them?" The Doctor was now doing last minute adjustments to his new outfit, whilst a run through of all the previous forms of the Doctor were now playing on the projector. Pip couldn't help but recognise some of them.

Once the tenth version had shown up, the Doctor stepped through the projection, smirking. He now wore a tweed jacket, trousers with suspenders, and a red bow tie.

"Hello. I'm the Doctor. Basically, run" he said quietly.

The Atraxi immediately retreated back into its ship, and left, extremely fast. The four of them heard a strange whooshing sound, and the Doctor takes a strange looking golden key, noticeably glowing, out of his jacket pocket.

"Is that it? Is that them gone for good? Who were they?" Amy couldn't help but question.

The Doctor, however, had already sped off. He ran straight out if the hospital and toward the girl's garden, where his box, all clean and fixed, was waiting for him. He grinned, the two girls only just managing to catch up with him, nearly back home.

"Okay, what have you got for me this time?" He questions the box.

"Look at you. Oh, you sexy thing! Look at you.

The two girls nearly made it, when they saw the Doctor close the doors of the box, and disappearing altogether.

The two girls look at each other in disappointment and upset. They walk inside, Pip feeling the disappointment eat away at her insides.

"He left us again" she thought to herself, before following Amy back inside.
