The Intergalactic Travels of the Doctor

“I’m fine”, said the Doctor,”don’t worry about me, just get the card!”

I should probably explain. Hi. I’m Samuel Panake. I travel around the universe with the Doctor, the last remaining timelord. As my colleage currently hangs out of a giant T-Rex’s mouth, I have been instructed to retrive a card that, in therory, should stop a bomb from going off.

“Doctor”, I shouted,” are you sure you don’t want your Stunner?”

“I’ll be fine!” He shouted back, “just get the bloody card!”

I picked up the card and put it in my pocket. I then went back to the Doctor’s Time and Relative Dimensions in Space, or TARDIS for short, and picked up his Stunner. Usally the Doctor’s only weapon is his Sonic Screwdriver, but seeing as how our travels have gotten more and more dangerous, the Doctor decided to make a different weapon that would only paralyze our enemies with a bright flash of light, unless they’re vampires but that one was my own fault.

I took aim, fired, and hit the dinosaur right in the face. He dropped the Doctor to the ground and he ran up to me and pulled the gun from my hands.Then  we ran back to the TARDIS and, after he pulled some levers, we were off.

“I thought we had a rule about the Stunner!” he said.

“That was one time!” I argued back, “Plus, you could’ve died”.

“I had it well under my control”, he said.

“Not from where I stood, looked as though you were about to be part of a dinosaur’s lunch.”

He sulked away and after about three more minutes we had arrived at our destination. When we stepped out I was in shock. The place we were in looked like a more high tech version of London. There were skyscrappers at least two hundred feet high and cars gliding a foot in the air. But what really shocked me was the light. Everything was so bright! I couldn’t believe that they even had a night time.

“Where are we?” I gasped.

“Alpha Centuri”, said the Doctor, scowling.

“Like the star?” I said.

“This is the star. A thick pad of heat resistant rubber is the only thing seperating us from a very painful death.” He replied.

That’s encouraging I though. I don’t know what it was about this place but it seemed to make him very angry. As we walked around I noticed that he always had a scowl on his face. Another thing I saw was the inhabitants. They weren’t human, at all. They looked more like gigantic dragons with scales running all over their bodies and a jaw housing hundreds of teeths.

“What is it about this place that makes you so…” I started

“Angry. These aliens aren’t exactly the kindest creatures.” He said.

After a while of walking we came to a huge tower, what must have been their city hall. We entered. Inside we came to two aliens and right beside them, the bomb.

“So, the time lord has indeed found us.” They said.

“They speak english?” I asked

“The TARDIS is a universal translator. I’m not even speaking english right now.” he explained. “Why destroy you’re home world?”

“You see”, they began, “Alpha Centuri is very special. As I’m sure you’re aware after every decision is made an ulternate universe is created where the oppisote of this decsion is made. Most of the time the change is small but the effects add up, even if they do add up infinitesmally. Alpha Centuri was the original earth. The decisions here added up to us becomeing a star and now, as we blow it up, all other earths will be destoryed.”

    “Why?” I asked

“Because if this world was never around to make those decisons then none of the seperate earths would have been created”, answered the Doctor.

    He reached to his side.He shot the Stunner  and hit one of the aliens.

    “What was that!” Hissed the other.

    “The Space Time and Universal Neutralizer and Nullificaton Equilizer Ray. Or Stunner for short”, said the Doctor

    “Impressive”, said the Alien.

    Before he could act the Doctor shot him too. We raced to the bomb. There was only about three minutes left before it exploded.

    “Why do the bad guys always set a timer?” I asked, “Wouldn’t it be simpler to just explode the thing?”

    “It would”, said the Doctor, “but that would mean we would lose and we can’t have that.”

    He took the card.

    “Also, why make something that could disarm your WMD? Makes no sense.”

    “Why are asking this?” Asked the Doctor.

    “Filler.” I said.

    He swiped the card and, nothing. Nothing happened. The Doctor was not calm.

    “Why is this not working?” He asked, frantically swiping the card.

    I looked around for something else that could disarm the bomb. I found it.

    “Go” I said, “leave”.

    “What?!” Asked the Doctor.

    “I can disarm it” I said.

    Before he could argue I swallowed it.  The sole thing that this bomb could be made of.

    I touched the bomb and the energy was exchanged. Mine for its. The last thing I saw was the screen turning blank.

    “That’s what happened” explained the Doctor.

    “Really?” asked his new companion.

    “Why do you think i travel around with only girls now. If I saw another man die trying to stop something I caused then I’d be reminded of the sacrifice sam made.” He said.

    “That explains so much” She said, and off they went. To London.
