On the TARDIS, Nate was monitoring the controls while Ten and Eleven where showing Susan around the ship. Lauren was holding Scout, who had fallen asleep. Tweegee was reading Lauren's Gallifreyan-to-English translation book. "Ugh, how can anyone read this?"

Nate smirked. "Hey, you're not the one who wrote it. Having to translate my people's elegant writing into your boxy, abrupt language... It was a pain." Something on the screen flashed. "Uh-oh... It's as I thought..."

Lauren laid Scout down on the chair. "What do you mean?"

Reaching over, Nate pulled a switch. "Time Fluctuations. Ever since I tried breaching the time lock... They've been appearing at random. They show up, distort time for a bit, then return everything to normal and dissipate. We could be caught up in..." Before he could finished, the three of them were caught in a flash of light.

***************************************************************************************

Nate pushed himself up. "Where are we?" Looking to his right, he saw Stonehenge, and a massive gathering of starships above it. He pulled out his sonic screwdriver and scanned the area. "Great... Eleven isn't here... So that means..." He trailed off as he pocketed his screwdriver.

Tweegee raised an eyebrow. "Means what?"

Nate smiled as he pulled a communicator out of another pocket. "That means I have to do this myself!" He took off towards Stonehenge, his two companions close behind.

****************************************************************************************

The Romans were about to panic. They had no idea what was happening. Suddenly, a voice boomed around them.

"HELLO, STONEHENGE!!! WHO TAKES THE PANDORICA, TAKES THE UNIVERSE! BUT, BAD NEWS EVERYONE..." the romans watched as a young man leapt onto the nearest boulder. "'CAUSE GUESS WHO! HA!" Nate looked up. "Listen, you lot! You're all whizzing about... Could you all stay still a minute because I... AM... TALKIIING!!!" Lauren and Tweegee stared open-mouthed as the starships each slowed to a halt. "Now, question of the hour is, Who's got the Pandorica? Answer, I DO. Next question, WHO'S COMING TO TAKE IT FROM ME?"

He threw out his arm. "COME ON!!! Look at me! NO PLAN! NO BACK-UP! NO WEAPONS WORTH A DAMN! Oh, and something else! I don't have Anything. To. LOSE! So, if you're sitting up there in your silly, little, spaceships with all your silly, little, guns... Just remember who's standing in your way! REMEMBER, every black day I ever stopped you, and then... AAAAND THEEEEENNNN... Do the smart thing! Let somebody else try first." He threw out both arms in a 'what-now' gesture as the starships sped away. He hopped to the ground, smiling widely at the looks of shock and amazement on his companions' faces.

As the Romans watched, the three newcomers disappeared in a flash of light.

******************************************************************************

Nate woke to the feeling of something wet on his nose. Opening his eyes, he was face-to-face with an energetic Scout, who was licking his face.

Lauren picked up Scout, who began to squirm and wave his paws around in a futile attempt to escape. "Doctor, what in the world just happened?"

Nate smiled. "Temporal Flux. Threw me into an earlier point in my life temporarily... Kind of like a nice Weeping Angel."

Shuddering, Lauren turned. "Like there's such thing as a 'nice' Weeping Angel."

Tweegee was hopping around. "THAT WAS AWESOME! Let's do it again!"
Next up..... I HAVE NO IDEA!!!!

Here's something about Scout you may want to know: he can be a bit nippy. XD
