| Amy blinked, her surroundings focusing shortly after. There was dried blood on her forehead, a pain in her chest. "Rory?" She called out, unsure if her husband had came with or not. No, he couldn't have. Her hands felt around the cement floor, sliding as her fingers curled in. "Hello?" Her voice sounded weak, fragile even, as if she hadn't used it in days. Maybe she hadn't. Biting down hard on her lower lip, Amy dragged herself up to stand. Her whole body ached as if she had been tossed around, but she couldn't remember a thing. "Rory!" She yelled louder, but the deathly silence told her there was no Rory here. No husband. All alone in a damp cell. Cell, it is a cell, isn't it? Amy rushed forward, nearly dragging her body through the sudden motion. Her shoulder connected with a bar and she let out an unsatisifed yelp.
"Amelia Jessica Pond. Companion of... Sir, sir... The screen, it has gone blank. The information is gone." A voice in the dark behind the bars said. Amy curled her hands around the bars, straining to see the figure outlined before her. It was a woman's voice. "Amelia Jessica Pond. Married to Rory Arthur Williams. You seem to have a complicated life. Several times where you disappear for weeks." Amy cleared her throat, looking down at her shoes in thought. "Really? Watching me then? What about Rory? Where's Rory?" She snapped, her voice more powerful than before. It was no longer distracted and edgy. She was who she's always been; the Doctor's best friend. The Doctor. Where is he? "We did not take Rory Williams. He was unnecessary." The voice said flatly and Amy groaned. "Oh, come on. Give me a bit more information than that, yeah?"
The woman grinded her teeth together loud enough that Amy winced. "We are looking for someone. A man. A man who has saved our universe a thousand times over. A man who is missing. We have found a box. A blue, police call box sitting in the middle of a field on the planet Ostara. No man. There is also nothing known about him other than small connections to companions. Of people tied to his future and past. You were one of them." Amy moaned, knocking her head on the bar in frustration. "Rory was one of them too, you know. He wasn't just 'Beaky' to my friend." She whispered, though her tone was strict and serious.
In the dark, the woman nodded. "My name is Samantha. I've met the man in that box. He said his name was John. John Smith. He wore a funny hat. I was nearly seven and he saved me. He saved my family, my friends. I'm not supposed to remember. I'm not supposed to be able to... To care. But the Layerans can't have that. They keep the box in an area full of radiation on V'vooshisia Prime." Amy raised an eyebrow, backing away from the bars as Samantha's mood suddenly changed. "What? What's an Layeran?" Samantha laughed softly, "a race of polygamous humanoids. They have a monopoly on trade in their corner of the galaxy, and they impose strict tariffs for passage through their territory. They wear tattoos to indicate their status in society, which you'll be seeing as soon as someone is sent to bring you to the punishing room."
"How long have I been here?" Amy asked gently, nearly a whisper. Samantha sighed, running a hand over her hooked nose and freckled cheeks, the too high of cheekbones and the thin lips. "Six weeks. As well as the man's other connections that we've discovered." With that, Samantha shifted, seemingly debating an exit before the sound of departing footsteps filled the hall and Amy fell to the ground, hard on her butt.
Loud rings filled the air, signfying something, though Amy couldn't register it enough to be able to understand it. Her mind was clouded with information. A species found the TARDIS, took the TARDIS. There was no Doctor. No Raggedy Man. There was no Rory Williams, the Beak. But there was a way out. Amy ran a hand through her red hair, pulling a single pin clipping a loose strand back. She stepped forward, wiggling it into the ancient slot of where a key must've gone only on several occasions. This looney race wasn't expecting this. Once the door was unlocked, Amy gently creaked it open, pocketing the pin and starting down the hall. | |

| The sound of metal creaking awoke him from a deep sleep. The TARDIS. Where's the TARDIS? Where's Clara? Where's- His thoughts broke off as a electrified zap ran through his arm. He rolled onto his back, breathing in the rusted air as his eyes scanned the ceiling. "Hate it when I don't escape." He mumbled softly, sitting up with a jerk. And the first thing the Doctor noticed was the absence of his jacket. And with it, the sonic screwdriver and the key to the TARDIS, along with everything else he's placed in those pockets through the years. He climbed to his feet, brushing off his vest as he scanned the small cell. "Hello! Something's terribly wrong! There's a wall with bars!" He yelled out, cupping his hands around his mouth to boost the volume. His voice echoed back and he slowly walked towards the bars. To his right, there were more cells. To his left, there was... Amy. Why was Amy there? "Pond?" He called over, his voice drenched in lost thought and mere confusion. She was coming more into view, he could see her red hair and most of her face. "Where's Beaky? No, wait. Hang on. Better question, why are you here?" His voice was louder and it felt almost criminal in the eerie silence. He could hardly remember how he had gotten here, the TARDIS had done a single protocol when it had crash landed. But Amy hadn't been with him, no, that much he remembered. "And another question. Where is 'here'?" He stepped back from the bars, circling his hands around themselves as his eyes roamed the cell. | |

| (I'm just gonna say my TARDIS is gone too.) The Doctor woke up in an unfamiliar place. He had no idea where he was, and that was odd considering he'd been to almost everywhere in the known universe. A shock of pain in his head made him roll on his back, gasping for the rusted air. The last thing he remembered was hanging out with Sarah Jane and K-9. His eyes darted around the place he was in. "I'm in a cell...Cells aren't groovy." The Doctor darted up, and walked to the bars of the cell. He heard familiar voices. Infact, one was his voice. He was to his right. "Hello Doctor..." He says calmly. | |

| Amy lifted her head almost excitedly at the Doctor's voice. But that's who they were looking for... That's... She ran the rest of the way, and by the time she came to a jog, another voice broke the new silence. A voice naming the Doctor. Amy briskly walked past the man's cell and over to the Doctor's, slipping the bobby pin in. "You've really need to stop getting into things and dragging me with you." She snapped, sliding the cell door to the side and stepping out of the way for the Doctor. "And don't call him Beaky!" Amy bent forward, slapping his shoulder sternly before turning to the cell directly right of his. "And you, no mentioning his name unless you want us all killed." She said, unlocking his cell as well, unaware he was also the Doctor. | |

| Once the door to his cell was open, the Doctor briskly slipped out, acting as if the space was smaller than it really was. Though his attention was no longer on Amy, he wished it had been. Instead, it was dragged to the cell that had been directly to the left of his. Funny, how they were looking for a single man and ended up getting two of them. And without the knowledge of it as well! Slipping the pin directly from Amy's grasp, the Doctor jammed it into the rusty lock of the... Well, other Doctor's door. It opened smoothly, and he quickly tossed the pin over his shoulder, hardly considering the fact that it was a bit too small for Amy to grab so easily. "Hello, haven't see your face before. But I know me when I see me." He had a gentle smirk on his face, eyes roaming over the figure of the other Doctor before taking a cautious step out of the way to allow him an exit.

| "And I know me. I mean, there's only one person in the whole universe with a chin that big and eyebrows even more invisible than a sontaran cloaking field." 13 messes with his old incarnation. "So chin boy, why are we here? An who is responsible for this?" He asks. Glancing at Amelia, he felt nostalgic. Amy Pond, the girl who waited, waiting no more. She had no idea what was coming her way, and the fun she would still have with 11. ((Mate, I think Pond is inactive)) | |

"Wait, what? See you?" Amy cried out, voice echoing harshly off the walls as she looked back and forth between the unfamiliar bloke and the Doctor she knew and loved. What made her pause was the other man speaking up, speaking in the same tone as her raggedy man. "Chin boy? You sound like that soufflé girl." Amy remembered that asylum quite clearly, though she wish she didn't. It was a rubbish memory, though she greatly appreciated her re-connect with Rory at the end of the adventure. And finally, things clicked. Amy glanced back at the man still standing in the cell, eyes widening. "You're the Doctor too, yeah? They've gotten two of you, but don't even know it!" | |
