The Doctor almost choked on his tea, when he heard what Susuan said.
"How do you know the Boogie Man isn't real?" He giggled.
Then again... she is rather young for a Time Lord.
"Doctor... Can I go to the Tower of London? I mean... if we can't... I understand but it's soo... old..."
Sam remembered Irene mentioning something about Bangers and Mash. She insisted that he eat some if he ever went to England.

"Stupid Ereptors..." Eddie grumbled. "I once made an entire attack plan if one were ever to arrive under my bed." She nodded with some pride.
Then she turned to Sam.
"You know I've never been to England either." She nodded. "Perhaps we could go sight-seeing."
"Oh cool!" Sam said.
"IF! We go and get my TARDIS." She grinned.
She turned to the Doctor with hopeful eyes.
"Right, Doc? You feel fine right? If not I can go get it all by myself, it'll take a moment, it's time travel, I'll zap back the moment I left." She leaned closer to him as she went on.
"Well, you see...there's something I have to tell you all about...the Ereptor..." he frowned and scratched the back of his head. "Heh..."

The Captain looked to the doctor and says "Please tell me shes not wanting to travel with us?I mean she wants to eat us right?"
The captain having worked out that the ereptor saved the doctor not just for eating but some other reason and well its more of a worst case scenerio in his mind.

"Wait!" Eddie screamed. "The thing's coming with us!?" She looked suddenly very panicked. "It can't come with us!"
"You're the one that didn't want to kill it." The Captain said.
"Well not killing it and letting it travel with us, are two very DIFFERENT THINGS!"

Susan thought for a moment, "It makes sense. If all she could eat are Time Lords then... Well, killing us would be a mistake considering that we are all that she knows of that are still alive. Granted, I'm not exactly interested in being a snack."

The Doctor downed the last of the tea, and jumped off the bed. He wobbled for a moment, but Eddie's arm flew out to steady him. Martha giggled.
"Oh, come on, Renfield's not that bad."
"Renfield?" Eddie said.
"The Ereptor, that's her name."
"IT HAS A NAME?"
"Doctor, it did bite you..." Sam began, forgetting about London for a minute.
The Doctor thought for a minute...
"I've got a plant." He finally said.
"A plan?" Sam sounded hopeful, for what, he didn't know...
"A plant. It came from Gallifrey, it produces something called the Flower of Time... it's an herb, but it's flower feeds off of the background radiation from the TARDIS. It is infused with Time Lord energy. There are 2 new flowers a month. It might sustain her. And if she ever gets too hungry.. there's always Time Garlic." The Doctor looked worried for a moment.
Sam tilted his head to one side. "Time Garlic?"
"It kills Ereptors."
"Ah. Like Vampires."
The Doctor scratched his nose. "Yeah..."
Martha had been talking into her cell, giving the the Doctor quick glances.
"...Yeah, see you tonight, love you too..." She contentedly smiled to herself, and hung up her phone.
"Martha! My dear friend!" The Doctor beamed. She ran up to him and hugged him tight.
"Good too see you, Doctor."
"You too, Doctor Jones." The Doctor picked her up slightly, and then put her down and let go.
"Want to come with us, Martha?"
Martha looked for a moment as though she was going to say yes, then she shook her head.
"Doctor, I'm getting married."
"What?!" The Doctor looked shocked for a moment.
"Maybe some other time, but right now... I've gotta concentrate on work and home."
The Doctor looked slightly irked for a moment.
"I've got to meet this man, make sure he's good enough for you."
Martha patted the Doctor on his shoulder. "Sure, well, you are invited to my wedding." She smiled at him. "And your crew can come, too."
Eddie coughed. "Ok, Doctor, enough with the catching up."
"We've got an Ereptor to give flowers to." Sam said. "Nice to meet you, Martha!"
Eddie and Sam walked out of the Door. The Captain and Susan said their goodbyes too, and left. The Doctor gave Martha another hug, and she went out of the door in the opposite direction.
"Martha... getting married... goodness."
When they walked out of the doors of the hospital, they saw a figure slumped against the TARDIS. It looked at them with cold black eyes.

The Captain looked to the cold eyes knowing it was Renfield and so he thought he should extend greetings first since he tried to kill her.
The captain extended his hand saying "I figure your coming with us,so I thought I should well extend my greetings and welcome you aboard,I would also like to say sorry about trying to kill you."

OOC: I'm going to be gone for the next few days. You all can go ahead and move my character about till I get back. Which will be on Monday.
BIC: Susan wondered just what they would do if the flowers turn out to not be enough. Before she could think more on it, she saw that Renfield was standing just outside. She can't help but to feel amazed at how the Time War effected people.
As the Captain welcomed Renfield, Susan had to hold back a laugh. If Renfield does go vegetarian then all those things people expressed couldn't happen, can.

Renfield lifted a rather limp hand to meet the Captain's. She lightly shook it, as if not wanting to get too close. The Captain could see the burnmarks on her hands, as she took it away. She curled up in herself, twisted her arms together, and hunched over, looking more and more like a human Vampire.
"Yes well, thank you. I suppose there's things I should apologize too."
She nodded.
Eddie was staring at her. She didn't even try to hide it. It wasn't a stare of hate or anything, it was just a stare. Wide-eyed, awed, scared, a mix of things. Renfield stared back at her, looking upset, Eddie backed away with Sam.
The Doctor approached them, and Renfield lightened up, and met the Doctor half way.
"Hello there." He beamed.
She nodded.

The Captain smiled nodding saying "Well we found something for you to eat, I think its called a time plant. I think its suppose to have time lord energy in it for you to feed on. Is that right Doctor?" He says looking to the doctor.

A plant? A plant? A PLANT?
"You expect me...to eat a plant for the rest of my life?"
She saw on their faces they did. They thought she, a Vita Ereptor, a life taker, a creature who knew only how to kill and eat, would eat a plant? That a plant could take the place of a precious neck? That it could replace the feel of her fangs on flesh, and taste of what life itself was? She stared wide-eyed at them, with scared animal eyes.
She had lived on humans for so long. She had gotten a taste of possibly the oldest living thing in this galaxy, and now she was to settle for a plant?
She recalled all the Time Lords she had taken down by herself. How many miles through the wastelands on Gallifrey had she stalked them. How long they ran, how much they fought. How satisfying their lives were to her.
But then she looked to the Doctor, smiling, expecting their compromise to be fair. She would have believed him ignorant if he had not just been inside her head all that time. She saw then, in his face, how he knew this was going to be difficult, that it was going to be long, and hard, but he expected her to being able to do it.
"Yes." the Doctor said. "A plant."
She nodded slowly.
"Well, fine then." She said.

The Doctor clapped his hands together then wrenched open the TARDIS.
"All right! Everything settled! Come on in! Time to get Eddie's TARDIS."
"WHAT?!" Eddie was at the back of the crowd, with Sam.
"Outtamyway, getouttamyway..." She shifted the other Time Lords aside so she could run into the Doctor's TARDIS and dance around the consul.
"FIIIIINALLY!"
Sorvad looked morosely at her.
Sam gave the Ereptor a nervous smile, last time he saw her she was curling away from the Sub-Solar Generator he used. He wanted to apologize, sort of, but he thought she'd understand that he was just trying to save his friends' lives. He hoped.
The Ereptor returned the smile with a grimace, showing pointed teeth. Sam tried not to shake as he went into the TARDIS. Renfield stumbled in after Sam.
The Time Plant was already sitting on the Consul. It had two pulsing red and gold flowers in full bloom. The Doctor was looking at the flowers.
"Oh... erm... another thing, Renfield... You can only eat one flower a month... because it needs the other flower to soak in the energy. It can't generate new flowers without at least one left. I could try to breed more, though... Or get an old friend to help me to, a one-of-a-kind botanist, that man..."
The Doctor stared thoughtfully into space. Renfield looked at the flower in a pitiful way.
"DOCTOR! THE COORDINATES! I ALREADY PUT THEM IN COME OOOOON!" Eddie was jumping up and down, waving a wrench and flapping her other arm.
"She sure is excitable, that one." The Doctor raised his eyebrows at Sam. "She's gonna hurt herself one day." The Doctor bounded towards the consul, exuberantly.
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE READY???" He yelled. "EDDIE'S TARDIS, HERE WE COME!!!!" He pressed a button, and grabbed Eddie's flapping arms and danced a short-lived tango with her, ending with the halt of the TARDIS.
Eddie ran out of the doors screaming in excitement.
The Doctor was about to follow in similar fashion, until he looked at Susan.
"Do you want to stop for your TARDIS too?"
Susan shook her head. "No, I think not... I'd like to stick with you, for... old time's sake." She smiled. The Doctor smiled back at her, and ruffled her hair. Renfield let out a giggle that sounded like a hiss of steam.
Sam and Sorvad were looking out of the TARDIS at the prancing Eddie, then three strange figures started wobbling towards her. She turned...
"WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE??!?"
The Doctor whirled around, froze for a milisecond, then bounded out of the door yelling "Captain, Susan, Sam, Sorvad, Renfield, GET OUT!!!"
The TARDIS door slammed. Sam turned to the others.
"What? What did he mean..." There was a banging on the TARDIS, and a moaning.
"Someone, plug in some coordinates or something! We have to leave! NOW!" Sam ran to the consul and hit a button and some cords with his bat. The engines started up again, and TARDIS left.
Irene had just missed the afterschool bus for the third time in a row. She was walking to the office to use their phone, hers had run out of batteries.
She missed the Doctor, and Eddie. She wondered how Sam was doing. He was probably having lots of fun adventures. Suddenly... she heard the noise of the TARDIS.
"DOCTOR! EDDIE!" She jumped and ran towards the noise. The Doctor and Eddie were running, fast around a corner. When they saw her, they grabbed her and pulled her behind a bush.
"Shhhh..." The Doctor whispered.

She held the plant delicately, having grabbed it off the consul before the TARDIS went off on its way. She now held her TARDIS and the plant together in each hand. She stared at the plant. Didn't smell at all appetizing. She sighed.
"Once a month, that's just salt in the wound." She told her TARDIS, raising it to the plant.
Then something shifted in the air, the Doctor yelled from outside. Sam turned to everyone and then, she felt, stupidly hit some buttons. It took her only a moment however, if he had waited another moment, she could have done something.
She smelled Ereptors. That's who the Doctor was yelling over. A horrible anger rose in her, and she put her things down and ran over to Sam, grabbing him by his shirt.
"You idiot!" She yelled.
"What!?" Sam stared at her pointy teeth as she spoke to him.
"It's Ereptors!" She dropped him and looked at the other Time Lords. "There are Ereptors and they are after the Doctor!" She pointed out the door.
"How can you tell?" The Captain spoke up.
"I CAN SMELL THEM!"
She ran up to him.
"Get this thing back to the Doctor, I have to save him."
Her fangs grew.
The Doctor was in danger. She was not about to allow the only Time Lord that at that point trusted her to die. The only Time Lord she had ever met with a rather open mind. The Elder of the Last Time Lords was not going to die while she was around.
She had her hand over her mouth as she screamed into it. Irene stared at her as she stopped.
"Damn it! DAMN IT! DAMN IT!" She said.
"What!?"
"SHHHH!" The Doctor told the two.
"I just wanted my TARDIS, that's all, that's all, of all the times we coulda come to get it, of all the years of time, we come here when they're here, and my poor TARDIS, it's all I want." She spoke to herself quietly.
"What are you talking about!?" Irene tried. "Hey wait, your TARDIS is at my school?"
Eddie's eyes shifted to her.
"SH!" The Doctor said again.

(( OOC: Jack, by "this thing", Renfield meant the (Doctor's) TARDIS. The TARDIS is going through the vortex right now, the Captain can't run out just like that. Someone can write that the TARDIS landed somewhere dangerous or something. ))
