The Doctor walked out of his TARDIS, unsure where he landed and looked around. He still couldn't tell where he was, but something seemed off about it. He decided to explore a bit until he ran into a woman, pointing a gun right at him. He raised his hands in surrender, unsure what was going on. "Hello," he smiled as he did, "Something I can help you with?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"I don't know. It's possible, but it doesn't sound like you actually know either," he told her, "And it's difficult to even start figuring things out if we don't even know for certain which part of Earth it stated in. I'm sure we'll figure it out eventually. We just need to get the TARDIS up and running."

[badassalicia-clark]

ALICIA :

“Okay… we've got tools, we've got a repair kit.”

She glanced over the supplies.

“And I figure we should probably clean the thing up while we're at it.”

A small nod.

“I'm ready.”

A faint smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.

“And before you ask—yeah, I can do it with my other arm.”

She lifted her injured arm slightly.

“Although my Terminator arm has been doing a pretty decent job lately.”

A quiet chuckle escaped her. Then her expression became serious again.

She raised an eyebrow and pointed toward something far off in the distance—the same direction she'd been watching through the binoculars only moments before.

“Our bite-happy friends aren't that far away.”

Her eyes remained fixed on the horizon.

“Which means we stay alert. Always.”

She looked back at him.

“You've got enough weapons, right?”

"Hello," he smiled as he did, "Something I can help you with?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"We can figure that out," the Doctor told her, "Anything is possible once we get this TARDIS up and repaired and working. I just need your help finding some of the parts."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Oh If that's all, I've always wanted to repair a time machine. Hey, maybe we can then travel back and stop the apocalypse, what do you think? Or we travel even further back and prevent my father's suicide!"

She sounded a lit bitter now.

Alicia sighed.

"Honestly, you can't change what happened. It's almost similar like interfering with the plan of death, right?"

She now felt the heat rising again. When would the fever finally subside?

[thedoctornumber11]

"I don't know," he told her, "There are fixed points in time that can't be fixed, usually like deaths and births and time points that have already been meddled with by a time traveler, but there are also points in time that can be adjusted. However, this is different than both. This whole thing was never supposed to happen. I'm not sure if I'll be able to change it or not, but we need to try."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Stopping hell, stop a virus that ultimately plunged many into endless suffering. Simply stop the apocalypse?" Alicia chuckled softly. But it was a sarcastic laugh. "I wish one could do that. Just go into a machine, flip the switch, and practically turn back time!"

She raised her head decisively. "But you can't break the laws of nature. Intervening in time always demands consequences, doesn't it?" A scratching, rustling sound now once again caught her attention.

"Quiet, do you hear that too?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"It can, but what consequences would be much worse than this?" he asked and then stopped for a moment. "We are in the TARDIS," he told her, "Even completely powered down, nothing could get inside here."

[badassalicia-clark]

"And where to now?" Alicia was cautious. Not too long ago, things like zombies, cannibals, or time travel were merely products of imagination—far from reality. But then came the apocalypse, and with it, a different way of measuring time. And now, she was no longer the person she used to be—the somewhat carefree girl who had dreams and visions. But dreams had faded. And the visions? Alicia sank to the ground, exhausted. "I guess I need another moment," she groaned.**

[thedoctornumber11]

"Is there anything I can do to help?" the Doctor asked her curiously, "You seem injured."

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia drew in a shaky breath.

Her new companion seemed kind—thoughtful, even—but there was something odd about him. Still, now wasn’t the time for questions.

She pointed to her arm. Or rather, the mock-up that replaced it.

"Phantom pain," she murmured, voice heavy with weariness.

Then she rose to her feet, determination flickering in her eyes.

"We need to fix this... and get out of here. Fast. You see those creatures down there? More are coming. This land belongs to them now. The dead—they’ve claimed everything."

She paused, then looked at him with a fragile smile.

"So if you know of a place that’s still safe... I’m listening."

---

[thedoctornumber11]

"Well, even without power, my TARDIS is probably one of the safest places we can be," he told her, "Just staying here for now until we figure out a plan might be our best bet."

[badassalicia-clark]

"We shall staying here? In this newaged phone booth? And you would call it safe? The dead will bring it down as if it were paper. They devour everything that dares to stand before them.”

Her hazel eyes darkened, reflecting the weight of a world already lost, as her hand pressed against the TARDIS , testing its doomed strength.

And one more problem lingered in the air.

“I am hungry.”

[thedoctornumber11]

"Even without power and without most of it's defense systems, the TARDIS is still the safest place in the universe. The armies of Genghis Khan couldn't break that door down. I think we'll be safe here while we figure out how to save it all."

He looked over at her. "How do you usually get food with everything going on?" he asked.

[badassalicia-clark]

"Oh, I'm trying to hunt something... I mean, it’s not like I can just stroll into a supermarket and do some shopping, right?" She bursts out laughing.

"God, how I miss those days! Just walk in, grab things off the shelves, pay, and leave... We never stopped to think what would happen if all that vanished one day—if everything dissolved. If the world as we knew it ceased to exist, or would cease to exist."

She grows quiet, thoughtful.

"None of us knew... No one realized what we were going to lose. Not just material things. But people... Friends, neighbors, family... No one knew!"

She lets out a deep sigh when he mentions Dschingis Khan.

"Hey, are you seriously trying to cheer me up right now? Oh question, Did you actually meet him? The great ruler? I mean, this is a time machine, isn’t it?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"I met Genghis Khan," the Doctor told her, "We didn't get along. Yes, this is a time machine, and yes, that is how I met him. Once we get this thing powered back up, I'll see about taking you there to see for yourself, although it's probably best he doesn't know that."

He got up from where they were. "Well, we should figure out that food situation," he told her.

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia looked at the Doctor with a sad smile.

“I just want to go somewhere safe. Maybe a place where those creatures don’t exist. Or never did…”

Her voice softened.

“Maybe I’ll find my family there… Maybe a lot of things will be undone…”

She took a breath.

“So let’s get this beast up and running. And, uh… let’s leave Genghis Khan right where he is. And yeah we need finally some food. Do you see the trees there. They wear fruits.

Just give it a look if we can eat them... "

---

[thedoctornumber11]

The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver to look at it. Much like his TARDIS, it seemed to be completely depowered, although it would likely be much easier to repair. He looked ahead at the fruit. If I can get a close look, I'd probably be able to tell you that."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Okay… so do you maybe need help?”

She crossed her arms, eyes sharp, no patience wasted.

“I’m not standing around here for fun. I know how to hunt. There’s a forest nearby — we’ll find something there.”

Alicia jerked her chin in direction of the trees .

“So? What do you say?”

Her gaze then dropped to the tool he was holding. She raised an eyebrow.

"Oh. That thing… yeah, it’s definitely seen better days.”

“Just guessing.”

[thedoctornumber11]

"Yes, but I can repair it," the Doctor told her, "Although it will probably take some supplies. We have a lot to do it seems." He looked towards the trees. "Yes, perfect idea," he agreed.

[badassalicia-clark]

“I don’t think that thing can be fixed anymore… but we can try.” she laughs*

She pressed something into his hand.

“what about you? Can you hunt too ?”

Her tone was matter-of-fact, no judgment in it.

“Because I doubt we can live off berries alone.”

Alicia scanned the treeline as she spoke.

“We really should look for something better — but stay cautious the whole time.”

She looked at him then, steady.

“You good?”

A brief, confident nod.

“I can still hunt with this arm, don’t worry.”

She lifted the binoculars and peered through them.

A deer caught her attention..

[thedoctornumber11]

"It's been a very long time since I've been hunting. It's not my favorite thing in the world. I'm capable though, yes. For now, I think we should focus on the berries. Eating animals could be risky with everything going on."

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia felt her stomach protest loudly. She frowned slightly. “But I still have something… I always keep a little extra for bad times,” she muttered, rummaging through her bag.

Right at the bottom, she found it — a small extra pouch. Inside were three chocolate bars and a bag of chips. She unwrapped one of the bars and held it out to him.

“Here. For you.”

A brief pause.

“I don’t mind sharing.”

She lifted the chips as well.

“We can split those too.”

A small, crooked smile appeared.

“I mean… we can’t live on berries forever while we’re stuck out here, right?”

She grinned at him. Then something slipped from her bag —

an old photograph, half yellowed with age.

Her heart dropped. She picked it up carefully.

“That’s my family,” she said quietly.

[thedoctornumber11]

The Doctor looked at the photograph. "Are they all still alive?" he asked her.

[badassalicia-clark]

She grew thoughtful.

For a single moment, the picture in front of her came alive again — a scene from a better time.

Back then they had all imagined a different future.

They were full of quiet hopes.

“My mom… she used to make this special dessert for us,” Alicia said softly.

“She said her own mother used to make it too.”

She let out a small, sad laugh.

“Well… she was supposed to warm the fruit, and somehow she burned the whole thing.”

A faint smile flickered through the memory.

“And instead of getting mad or cursing about it… she just laughed.”

Alicia shook her head gently.

“My dad was kind of pissed because the dessert was completely ruined… but she… she just kept laughing.”

She wiped a tear from her cheek. A quiet sigh followed.

“Back then my dad was still alive.”

Her voice lowered.

“No one knew that a year later he’d fall into that damn depression.”

She looked down at the photograph again, her fingers brushing across it.

“In that picture… my brother was still doing okay.”

Her hand lingered there.

“After my dad died, things kept getting worse for Nick. He smoked before… but then he started taking harder stuff.”

Alicia swallowed.

“And it turned into a vicious cycle.”

She stared at the photo.

“My mom kept holding on to him tighter and tighter… almost suffocating him with it.”

A quiet pause.

“But she didn’t see it.”

Her voice dropped to a whisper.

“Everything just… fell apart.”

She took a breath.

“Then Travis came along. He became our anchor.”

Her eyes lifted.

“And then the apocalypse happened.”

Alicia frowned slightly.

“I don’t know who’s still alive.”

A beat.

“Maybe my mom is still out there.”

She hesitated.

“I kind of have this feeling… but maybe I’m just going crazy.”

Another small shake of her head.

*“Maybe I just want to believe it

[thedoctornumber11]

"Maybe you'll be able to find her," the Doctor told her, "One day, once we save the world."

[badassalicia-clark]

ALICIA ::)

She raised an eyebrow.

“That sounds like something out of a cheesy poem.”

A faint pause.

“I used to like poems… good stories… painting.”

For a brief moment, she drifted into her own thoughts —a world that felt far away now. Then she looked at him again, more focused.

“Do you really think this world can still be saved?”

Her voice steadied.

“That these things… these monsters… can just be wiped out like that?”

A beat. “Do you actually believe that?”

[thedoctornumber11]

"I don't know for a fact," he admitted, "But I think it's possible, yes. I just need to figure out what caused it all and where it all started."

[badassalicia-clark]

ALICIA

“Hmm… how about this?”

She tilted her head, a thoughtful expression crossing her face.

“It all started when a deadly virus escaped from some secret underground bunker where a brilliant—but completely insane—scientist had been conducting experiments.”

She shrugged lightly.

“Maybe he'd lost his mind after his wife and child left him.”

A quiet pause. “Maybe he was trying to bring his wife back…”

Her voice softened.

“And instead… he created this.”

She gestured vaguely to the world around them. “The virus infected him first… then it escaped.”

She exhaled.

“And after that…”

A faint smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.

“…it was just one giant domino effect.”

Alicia frowned slightly, considering her own theory.

Then she let out a quiet chuckle.

“Sounds believable enough, doesn't it?”

She looked at him, one eyebrow lifting.

“Or am I hiding in my imagination a little too much?”

She pointed to her arm. Or rather, the mock-up that replaced it.

"Phantom pain," she murmured, voice heavy with weariness.

Then she rose to her feet, determination flickering in her eyes.

"We need to fix this... and get out of here. Fast. You see those creatures down there? More are coming. This land belongs to them now. The dead—they’ve claimed everything."

She paused, then looked at him with a fragile smile.

"So if you know of a place that’s still safe... I’m listening."

"Well, even without power, my TARDIS is probably one of the safest places we can be," he told her, "Just staying here for now until we figure out a plan might be our best bet."

[badassalicia-clark]

"We shall staying here? In this newaged phone booth? And you would call it safe? The dead will bring it down as if it were paper. They devour everything that dares to stand before them.”

Her hazel eyes darkened, reflecting the weight of a world already lost, as her hand pressed against the TARDIS , testing its doomed strength.

And one more problem lingered in the air.

“I am hungry.”

[thedoctornumber11]

"Even without power and without most of it's defense systems, the TARDIS is still the safest place in the universe. The armies of Genghis Khan couldn't break that door down. I think we'll be safe here while we figure out how to save it all."

He looked over at her. "How do you usually get food with everything going on?" he asked.

[badassalicia-clark]

"Oh, I'm trying to hunt something... I mean, it’s not like I can just stroll into a supermarket and do some shopping, right?" She bursts out laughing.

"God, how I miss those days! Just walk in, grab things off the shelves, pay, and leave... We never stopped to think what would happen if all that vanished one day—if everything dissolved. If the world as we knew it ceased to exist, or would cease to exist."

She grows quiet, thoughtful.

"None of us knew... No one realized what we were going to lose. Not just material things. But people... Friends, neighbors, family... No one knew!"

She lets out a deep sigh when he mentions Dschingis Khan.

"Hey, are you seriously trying to cheer me up right now? Oh question, Did you actually meet him? The great ruler? I mean, this is a time machine, isn’t it?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"I met Genghis Khan," the Doctor told her, "We didn't get along. Yes, this is a time machine, and yes, that is how I met him. Once we get this thing powered back up, I'll see about taking you there to see for yourself, although it's probably best he doesn't know that."

He got up from where they were. "Well, we should figure out that food situation," he told her.

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia looked at the Doctor with a sad smile.

“I just want to go somewhere safe. Maybe a place where those creatures don’t exist. Or never did…”

Her voice softened.

“Maybe I’ll find my family there… Maybe a lot of things will be undone…”

She took a breath.

“So let’s get this beast up and running. And, uh… let’s leave Genghis Khan right where he is. And yeah we need finally some food. Do you see the trees there. They wear fruits.

Just give it a look if we can eat them... "

---

[thedoctornumber11]

The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver to look at it. Much like his TARDIS, it seemed to be completely depowered, although it would likely be much easier to repair. He looked ahead at the fruit. If I can get a close look, I'd probably be able to tell you that."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Okay… so do you maybe need help?”

She crossed her arms, eyes sharp, no patience wasted.

“I’m not standing around here for fun. I know how to hunt. There’s a forest nearby — we’ll find something there.”

Alicia jerked her chin in direction of the trees .

“So? What do you say?”

Her gaze then dropped to the tool he was holding. She raised an eyebrow.

"Oh. That thing… yeah, it’s definitely seen better days.”

“Just guessing.”

[thedoctornumber11]

"Yes, but I can repair it," the Doctor told her, "Although it will probably take some supplies. We have a lot to do it seems." He looked towards the trees. "Yes, perfect idea," he agreed.

[badassalicia-clark]

“I don’t think that thing can be fixed anymore… but we can try.” she laughs*

She pressed something into his hand.

“what about you? Can you hunt too ?”

Her tone was matter-of-fact, no judgment in it.

“Because I doubt we can live off berries alone.”

Alicia scanned the treeline as she spoke.

“We really should look for something better — but stay cautious the whole time.”

She looked at him then, steady.

“You good?”

A brief, confident nod.

“I can still hunt with this arm, don’t worry.”

She lifted the binoculars and peered through them.

A deer caught her attention..

[thedoctornumber11]

"It's been a very long time since I've been hunting. It's not my favorite thing in the world. I'm capable though, yes. For now, I think we should focus on the berries. Eating animals could be risky with everything going on."

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia felt her stomach protest loudly. She frowned slightly. “But I still have something… I always keep a little extra for bad times,” she muttered, rummaging through her bag.

Right at the bottom, she found it — a small extra pouch. Inside were three chocolate bars and a bag of chips. She unwrapped one of the bars and held it out to him.

“Here. For you.”

A brief pause.

“I don’t mind sharing.”

She lifted the chips as well.

“We can split those too.”

A small, crooked smile appeared.

“I mean… we can’t live on berries forever while we’re stuck out here, right?”

She grinned at him. Then something slipped from her bag —

an old photograph, half yellowed with age.

Her heart dropped. She picked it up carefully.

“That’s my family,” she said quietly.

[thedoctornumber11]

The Doctor looked at the photograph. "Are they all still alive?" he asked her.

[badassalicia-clark]

She grew thoughtful.

For a single moment, the picture in front of her came alive again — a scene from a better time.

Back then they had all imagined a different future.

They were full of quiet hopes.

“My mom… she used to make this special dessert for us,” Alicia said softly.

“She said her own mother used to make it too.”

She let out a small, sad laugh.

“Well… she was supposed to warm the fruit, and somehow she burned the whole thing.”

A faint smile flickered through the memory.

“And instead of getting mad or cursing about it… she just laughed.”

Alicia shook her head gently.

“My dad was kind of pissed because the dessert was completely ruined… but she… she just kept laughing.”

She wiped a tear from her cheek. A quiet sigh followed.

“Back then my dad was still alive.”

Her voice lowered.

“No one knew that a year later he’d fall into that damn depression.”

She looked down at the photograph again, her fingers brushing across it.

“In that picture… my brother was still doing okay.”

Her hand lingered there.

“After my dad died, things kept getting worse for Nick. He smoked before… but then he started taking harder stuff.”

Alicia swallowed.

“And it turned into a vicious cycle.”

She stared at the photo.

“My mom kept holding on to him tighter and tighter… almost suffocating him with it.”

A quiet pause.

“But she didn’t see it.”

Her voice dropped to a whisper.

“Everything just… fell apart.”

She took a breath.

“Then Travis came along. He became our anchor.”

Her eyes lifted.

“And then the apocalypse happened.”

Alicia frowned slightly.

“I don’t know who’s still alive.”

A beat.

“Maybe my mom is still out there.”

She hesitated.

“I kind of have this feeling… but maybe I’m just going crazy.”

Another small shake of her head.

*“Maybe I just want to believe it

The Doctor walked out of his TARDIS, unsure where he landed and looked around. He still couldn't tell where he was, but something seemed off about it. He decided to explore a bit until he ran into a woman, pointing a gun right at him. He raised his hands in surrender, unsure what was going on. "Hello," he smiled as he did, "Something I can help you with?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"We can figure that out," the Doctor told her, "Anything is possible once we get this TARDIS up and repaired and working. I just need your help finding some of the parts."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Oh If that's all, I've always wanted to repair a time machine. Hey, maybe we can then travel back and stop the apocalypse, what do you think? Or we travel even further back and prevent my father's suicide!"

She sounded a lit bitter now.

Alicia sighed.

"Honestly, you can't change what happened. It's almost similar like interfering with the plan of death, right?"

She now felt the heat rising again. When would the fever finally subside?

[thedoctornumber11]

"I don't know," he told her, "There are fixed points in time that can't be fixed, usually like deaths and births and time points that have already been meddled with by a time traveler, but there are also points in time that can be adjusted. However, this is different than both. This whole thing was never supposed to happen. I'm not sure if I'll be able to change it or not, but we need to try."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Stopping hell, stop a virus that ultimately plunged many into endless suffering. Simply stop the apocalypse?" Alicia chuckled softly. But it was a sarcastic laugh. "I wish one could do that. Just go into a machine, flip the switch, and practically turn back time!"

She raised her head decisively. "But you can't break the laws of nature. Intervening in time always demands consequences, doesn't it?" A scratching, rustling sound now once again caught her attention.

"Quiet, do you hear that too?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"It can, but what consequences would be much worse than this?" he asked and then stopped for a moment. "We are in the TARDIS," he told her, "Even completely powered down, nothing could get inside here."

[badassalicia-clark]

"And where to now?" Alicia was cautious. Not too long ago, things like zombies, cannibals, or time travel were merely products of imagination—far from reality. But then came the apocalypse, and with it, a different way of measuring time. And now, she was no longer the person she used to be—the somewhat carefree girl who had dreams and visions. But dreams had faded. And the visions? Alicia sank to the ground, exhausted. "I guess I need another moment," she groaned.**

[thedoctornumber11]

"Is there anything I can do to help?" the Doctor asked her curiously, "You seem injured."

[badassalicia-clark]

They still hadn't managed to repair the TARDIS yet, but when December 25th came along, the Doctor was determined to celebrate Christmas regardless. When Alicia walked into the main TARDIS console room, the Doctor had a gift for her in his hands. "Merry Christmas," he told her happily.

"You, you celebrate this celebration?" She was honestly touched from his gesture. And her eyes are looking around. It looked so very much like Christmas. She had forgotten that this still did exist. Since the apocalypse was, much was different. Her mom, her brother gone... Her boyfriend died in her arms. Alicia was not in mood to celebrate. But now her cheeks filled with embarrassment.

"It's really for me? "

[thedoctornumber11]

"Of course," he told her. He didn't have access to a whole lot of future tech, but he still knew how to make a box bigger on the inside. The box seemed small outside, but was very large on the inside and there were many items inside. There were some chocolates the Doctor had found in an abandoned grocery store, along with a gun, bullets and handcuffs he had found in an abandoned police station. There was a large knife he had found in a sporting store and a first aid kit he had found while out and about. There was a compass and a winter coat and a few other items he knew she could use for survival. Lastly, there was some psychic paper and a sonic screwdriver that he had put together just for her using just a bit of the technology he had left.

[badassalicia-clark]

ALICIA :

Her eyes took on that strange glow. Her chin almost dropped. Pure astonishment flickered across her face.

“That much?”

A flush crept up her cheeks.

Embarrassment showed openly now.

She had nothing for him. Nothing… except—

Back when she’d still been with the group, her group, there had been a girl younger than her who used to knot little bands. They used to call them friendship bracelets.

Alicia had wanted to give one of them to Will. She had made it just for him. But Will was gone. Hesitantly, she opened her bag and pulled out a small box. It looked old, worn — decorated with a mosaic pattern. Inside there were some candy, a sling, and.... A small bracelet

“I know it’s nothing special,” she said quietly.

“I made it once, after someone showed me how.”

She looked at him then.

The bracelet carried a simple message:

Forever Friends 💕

"And where to now?" Alicia was cautious. Not too long ago, things like zombies, cannibals, or time travel were merely products of imagination—far from reality. But then came the apocalypse, and with it, a different way of measuring time. And now, she was no longer the person she used to be—the somewhat carefree girl who had dreams and visions. But dreams had faded. And the visions? Alicia sank to the ground, exhausted. "I guess I need another moment," she groaned.**

"Is there anything I can do to help?" the Doctor asked her curiously, "You seem injured."

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia drew in a shaky breath.

Her new companion seemed kind—thoughtful, even—but there was something odd about him. Still, now wasn’t the time for questions.

She pointed to her arm. Or rather, the mock-up that replaced it.

"Phantom pain," she murmured, voice heavy with weariness.

Then she rose to her feet, determination flickering in her eyes.

"We need to fix this... and get out of here. Fast. You see those creatures down there? More are coming. This land belongs to them now. The dead—they’ve claimed everything."

She paused, then looked at him with a fragile smile.

"So if you know of a place that’s still safe... I’m listening."

"Well, even without power, my TARDIS is probably one of the safest places we can be," he told her, "Just staying here for now until we figure out a plan might be our best bet."

[badassalicia-clark]

"We shall staying here? In this newaged phone booth? And you would call it safe? The dead will bring it down as if it were paper. They devour everything that dares to stand before them.”

Her hazel eyes darkened, reflecting the weight of a world already lost, as her hand pressed against the TARDIS , testing its doomed strength.

And one more problem lingered in the air.

“I am hungry.”

[thedoctornumber11]

"Even without power and without most of it's defense systems, the TARDIS is still the safest place in the universe. The armies of Genghis Khan couldn't break that door down. I think we'll be safe here while we figure out how to save it all."

He looked over at her. "How do you usually get food with everything going on?" he asked.

[badassalicia-clark]

"Oh, I'm trying to hunt something... I mean, it’s not like I can just stroll into a supermarket and do some shopping, right?" She bursts out laughing.

"God, how I miss those days! Just walk in, grab things off the shelves, pay, and leave... We never stopped to think what would happen if all that vanished one day—if everything dissolved. If the world as we knew it ceased to exist, or would cease to exist."

She grows quiet, thoughtful.

"None of us knew... No one realized what we were going to lose. Not just material things. But people... Friends, neighbors, family... No one knew!"

She lets out a deep sigh when he mentions Dschingis Khan.

"Hey, are you seriously trying to cheer me up right now? Oh question, Did you actually meet him? The great ruler? I mean, this is a time machine, isn’t it?"

[thedoctornumber11]

"I met Genghis Khan," the Doctor told her, "We didn't get along. Yes, this is a time machine, and yes, that is how I met him. Once we get this thing powered back up, I'll see about taking you there to see for yourself, although it's probably best he doesn't know that."

He got up from where they were. "Well, we should figure out that food situation," he told her.

[badassalicia-clark]

Alicia looked at the Doctor with a sad smile.

“I just want to go somewhere safe. Maybe a place where those creatures don’t exist. Or never did…”

Her voice softened.

“Maybe I’ll find my family there… Maybe a lot of things will be undone…”

She took a breath.

“So let’s get this beast up and running. And, uh… let’s leave Genghis Khan right where he is. And yeah we need finally some food. Do you see the trees there. They wear fruits.

Just give it a look if we can eat them... "

[thedoctornumber11]

The Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver to look at it. Much like his TARDIS, it seemed to be completely depowered, although it would likely be much easier to repair. He looked ahead at the fruit. If I can get a close look, I'd probably be able to tell you that."

[badassalicia-clark]

"Okay… so do you maybe need help?”

She crossed her arms, eyes sharp, no patience wasted.

“I’m not standing around here for fun. I know how to hunt. There’s a forest nearby — we’ll find something there.”

Alicia jerked her chin in direction of the trees .

“So? What do you say?”

Her gaze then dropped to the tool he was holding. She raised an eyebrow.

"Oh. That thing… yeah, it’s definitely seen better days.”

“Just guessing.”
