Chance Encounter
By Mihora Rose
(Pre advance warning this was done just after Rory was "killed" in cold blood and story its not complete)
Location: Victorian London, England
21 January 1852
The Streets are busy with the sound of people talking and buying stuff. A young man rushes through the crowded street holding something shiny tightly in his hands as he dodges past people. Then the sound of whistles can be heard faintly in the background as the crowds slowly open up letting about 12 police officers chase after him
Police Officer:
Halt! In the name of the Queen
The young man turns to look back, losing his stepping and dropping the item he was accused of stealing. We get a quick glimpse of a pocket watch before he quickly grabs it.
Lucas:
Stop chasing me, I didn't steal it, it was mine to begin with Gov.
The young man gets back up and starts running again hearing the sounds of the whistle and barking dog not far behind, dashing around the corner and stopping shortly after been blocked by a big blue box with doors (Tardis).
The young man knocks and pushes at the door hoping it will open.
Lucas:
Come on budge, dammit! Let me in
Stepping out from the alleyway seeing how close the Police are, the young man puts the pocket watch in his pocket and dashes toward the doors hoping to break them down.
Interior: Tardis near the control panels, The Doctor's messing with some of the switches whilst the companion is sitting on the upper level of the Tardis.
Amy Pond:
So where are we again?
The Doctor:
21st of January 1852, Victorian London
Amy Pond:
And why are we here again?
The Doctor:
No reason, just thought we could have a quiet day, you know, nothing dangerous.
BANG BANG BANG
Lucas:
Let me in.
The Doctor glances over at Amy then glances back at the door
Amy:
Well aren't you going to answer it?
The Doctor rushes over to the door and opens it.
The Doctor:
Sorry we're not open for.....oof
The young man rushes pass The Doctor accidentally pushing The Doctor into the Railing near the door. The Young man crash into the control panel, his hand landing on 3 buttons and the centre panels light up and starts moving
The Doctor still slightly crouching looks up in disbelief and staggers
to the control panels
The Doctor:
Wha.....What have you done?
Lucas:
Noth.....nothing Sir
Quickly cowering into the corner not sure what to think of what is going off
Amy:
Doctooooor Whats going off?
The Doctor:
Well obviously you have or else it wouldn't have started. Don't worry Amy it's easy to fix
The Doctor dashes round to the monitor, looking at the screen scrambling to regain control of the Tardis. The Doctor fiddles with the controls and is pushing buttons. Finally regaining some control he slams down the stabiliser
The Doctor:
Now Now Now "Snaps fingers and points to the Young Man "Who are you?
Lucas:
Me Sir?
The Doctor:
Yes you! I know who she is and I know who I am. That's Amy Pond and I'm The Doctor , But who are you?
Lucas looks around with confusion and excitment in his eyes, before drawing his atttention back to the The Doctor
Lucas:
Lucas Sir, Lucas Chance. Where am I?
The Doctor crouches besides Lucas and looks him in the eyes.
The Doctor:
Well Lucas you see, your neither here nor there, Infact once i reconfigure the console to the right date your going home.
Amy:

As The Doctor steps back to the controls, Amy walks over and gives him a pat on the back,
Amy:

Lucas:

Lucas look at The Doctor Puzzeled not sure what he was talking about
The Doctor:

The Doctor pulls out his Sonic Screwdrive and does a quick scan of Lucas, Lucas look on with bemusment in his eyes
The Doctor:

Amy looks at Lucas see tears starting to swell in his eyes, when the doctor mention his parents.
Amy:
Eeeerhm, Doctor why don't you put that away, you don't need to be scarying him more then you already have.
Amy croutches down next to lucas patting him on the back and giving him a warm gently smile hoping to make him smile. She then looks at the Doctor and shrugs her shoulders as to say what the hell.
The Doctor:

Lucas looks up at Amy and smile slightly blushing. Making Amy laugh alittle.
Amy:

Cheekly smiling back at Lucas knowing very well what The Doctor was going to say.
The Tardis makes all it funny landing sounds and then suddenly stop.
The Doctor:
