The Doctor had very quickly found the source of the teleport energy, a department store about 15 minutes from Craig's house, where he had somehow managed to get himself a job the very next day. Danni hadn't gone into the managers office with him, but he had come out with a grin and a job. He hadn't acquired one for her, saying that if they were in different departments then they wouldn't be able to communicate with each other if they saw anything suspicious, but she knew he really just wanted to keep an eye on her. The longer he was Eleven the less happy he was to let her leave his side, not that she was complaining but sometimes it became a bit of a problem. Like at the moment, when she just wanted to go back to the TARDIS and get some rest. She hadn't really slept the night before and her head was pounding with the drumming.

Danni looked up from the large building blocks and the small boy she was currently building a castle with to look for the Doctor, smiling as he was flying a remote control helicopter for the group of children he had seemed to have gathered.

"It goes up-tiddly up, it goes down-tiddly down-down! For only £49.99, which I think is a bit steep but then again it's your parents' cash and they'll only waste it on boring stuff like lamps..."

"And vegetables!" Danni called over and he looked across the room, grinning at her.

"Exactly! And vegetables, yawn!" Danni spotted Craig entering the department, pushing Alfie with one hand and his other holding a phone up to his ear.

"Yeah, Soph..." The Doctor looked up from the controller at his voice, "Just enjoy your holiday! Yeah, coping." Realising he had lost control of the helicopter as he stared, surprised, at Craig he quickly fought with the controls.

"Nobody panic, but I appear to be losing control." His voice went high-pitched, much to Danni's amusement, as the helicopter flew just past Craig's head, landing in a group of teddies behind him.

"Yeah, love yo-" He trailed off, startled by the attack. The Doctor dropped to the display table behind him.

"Oops-a-daisy." He whispered, a guilty look on his face. He then knelt on the floor in the group of children, "Guys, guys, ladies and gentlemen, while I deal with this awkward moment you go and find your parents/guardians! Try in lamps!" He stood up and gave one girl a high five as they left to go home. He clapped and pointed at the man with both hands,"Craig!" Danni patted the boy she was playing with on the head.

"Don't forget the huge tower for the archers to shoot at invaders." She handed him a small archer to demonstrate her point then pushed herself up off the ground, walking over to the two men.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Craig asked perplexed. Danni leant down in front on Alfie, holding her hand out for him to grab. She shook it gently when he did.

"Hello again Stormy." She whispered.

"I'm the Doctor, I work in a shop now. Here to help. They gave me a badge," he pointed to the name badge pinned on his braces, "with my name on in case I forget who I am, very thoughtful, as that does happen."

"You were leaving... the alignment of Exeter, what about that? One chance to see it, you said." Craig pointed out.

"Well, we were on our way, saw a shop, got a job, you got to live in the moment, Craig." He turned to walk away and Craig followed, almost running over a toy dog, "Mind Yappy." The Doctor scolded, picking up the toy.

"What?"

"Yappy. The robot dog. Not so much fun as I remember." He wiggled the dog in his own face, smiling and getting sidetracked by the toy for a moment, "You look awful!" Danni stood up from her crouch.

"That's what happens when you don't get any sleep." She pointed out and he looked at her, concerned and pulled her up to him.

"You'll get some, I promise." He whispered gently and she nodded, despite the fact she didn't agree.

"I still can't stop him crying. I even tried singing to him last night." Craig explained. Alfie gurgled and the Doctor leant down to listen.

"Yeah, he did mention that...he thought you were crying, too. He didn't get a wink. Yappy, say goodbye to Craig and Stormageddon." He waved the dog at Craig, putting on a voice, "Goodbye, Craig, goodbye, Stormageddon. Come along Danni-Girl." She took the dog out of his hand, knowing he'd want to take it with them and placed it on the floor. They didn't need another pet; she had discovered a large grey rabbit in her bedroom one day, sat on the bed staring at her expectantly. She'd taken it to the Doctor, who frowned at the sight of it before telling her to find it a room. She had, although she had yet to name it. Something flew across the ground at the other end of the aisle, causing her to pause mid-crouch to watch it zoom away. The Doctor bent down next to her.

"What was that?" He whispered and she shrugged. She really couldn't remember, couldn't think that far back in her memory. The drumming constantly blocked any form of deep thinking, it became so unbearable she had learnt to just leave it Doctor ran down the aisle.

"You got jobs?" Craig asked her as he joined her.

"He got a job. I'm not allowed one; I think he thinks it'll aggravate 'my condition'." She told him and he frowned.

"You're condition?" she nodded.

"Yeah, I'm kind of dying." She replied lightly, looking at him with a frown, "You didn't notice? You must be tired. Come on." She walked over to the Doctor, kneeling down next to him while he was on his hands and knees, looking for whatever had scuttled past. Craig, confused at what she had just told him, brushed it off for the moment and pushed Alfie up to them.

"You're here for a reason, aren't you? You noticed something, and you're investigating it." He exclaimed, half panicked and half happy that he'd worked it out, "Because it's you, it's going to be dangerous and alien." The Doctor stood up and faced his friend.

"It might not be." He replied.

"Doctor, I live here, I need to know!"

"No, you don't."

"It's very dangerous." Danni told him, "possibly Earth destroying but I can't tell you for sure because I can't bloody remember." She snapped out, annoyed at herself for being too ill to remember. The Doctor shot her a look and she rolled her eyes, "His baby lives here, his son. He deserves to know so he can protect him." She explained and he nodded, conceding her point.

"Sheila Clark, went missing Tuesday. Atif Ghosh, last seen Friday. Tom Luker, last seen Sunday." He told Craig in hushed tones, trying to draw attention to the group. The Doctor looked backwards one last time as Craig rustled through the stroller, pulling out an newspaper.

"Why's that not on the front page?" The Doctor pointed to a picture of a woman.

"Page one has an exclusive on Nina, a local girl who got kicked off Britain's Got Talent. These people are on pages 7, 19, 22." Danni grabbed the stroller and they walked off down the aisle, taking Alfie with them, "No-one's noticed yet, they're far too excited about Nina's emotional journey, which in fairness, is quite inspiring." Craig turned and followed, still reading the paper.

"And what else?" Craig asked as they left the toy department and entered children's clothing.

"These power fluctuations happen at the same time as the disappearances." Danni added.

"That's just the council, putting in new cables. Isn't it?" The Doctor walked them up to a lift that was cordoned off by red and white tape, a sign declaring it out of order.

"Oh, yes, that's it, mystery solved," he smacked himself on the forehead, "oh, wasting our time, now you can go home and," He pulled out his screwdriver, sonicing the lift and it began raising up to meet them, "We can go to Exedor, goodbye, and here's a lift."

"It says out of order." Craig frowned in confusion.

"Not any more."He pulled the tape off as the lift dinged to signal its arrival, "See? Here to help." The doors opened and Danni pushed the stroller into the lift, Craig taking over at the last minute.

"It says, 'danger'." Craig read the sign, which the Doctor immediately tore down.

"Oh, rubbish, lifts aren't dangerous." Craig stood in front of the doors, stopping them from closing.

"Do I look like I'm stupid?" Alfie gurgled and the Doctor laughed before pulling a serious face.

"Quiet, Stormy! Oh, all right, there's more." He gave in with a twirl and pulled Danni into the lift, sonicing the panel before pressing a button and the doors closed, "Just between you, me, Danni and Stormy, don't want to frighten my punters. Someone's been using a teleport relay, right here in this shop. Missing people last seen in this area." He placed a finger on Craig's lips before the man could ask any questions, "Before you ask, CCTV's been wiped."

"A teleport?" He exclaimed, "A tele? A big?" He put the newspaper down on the stroller, "Like a beam me up teleport," he motioned up and down with both hands. "like you see in Star Trek?" The Doctor mirrored him for a moment before Danni pulled his arms down. The sudden movements were not doing anything to help her head, and the last thing she wanted was a screaming headache when they met the Cybermen. She paled, oh dear.

"Exactly. Someone's been using a beam me up Star Trek teleport. Could be disguised as anything." The Doctor looked around, a grin on his face. As much as he tried to deny it, he loved the challenge of trying to work out what was going on.

"But a teleport? In a shop? That's ridiculous!" The lights began flickering.

"Oh I remember what happens now." Danni groaned as the lights turned off and they were teleported onto the Cybership. The Doctor looked around, his eyes going wide as he saw they had moved.

"What was that? Was that the lights again?" Craig asked, oblivious to the fact they had moved at all.

"Yes, that's it. That's all, it's the lights." The Doctor squeaked out as he turned back to face Craig.

"Why did you say that like that?"

"Like what?" He replied, still high-pitched.

"In that voice." Danni clarified as she checked on Alfie, who was happily batting at the toys dangling in front of him.

"Like," The Doctor coughed, "like what?" He tried again, this time in his normal voice.

"Like that, in that high-pitched voice."

"Just keep looking at me, Craig. Right at me, just keep looking." The Doctor commanded, looking over his shoulder to try and work out where they were.

"Why?" Craig asked, confused.

"Well, because, because..." He stuttered out as Craig started to turn around. He grabbed his arms, pulling him back around and up against him, "Because I love you." Danni laughed outright and Alfie gurgled what even she could assume was a laugh.

"You love me?" Craig asked unsurely.

"Yes, Craig. It's you. It's always been you." The Doctor replied. Craig looked at Danni, then back at the Doctor.

"Me?" He asked, even more uncertainly. The Doctor pulled out his screwdriver, chucking his arms around Craig's shoulders to try and hide it.

"Is that so surprising?" He asked. Craig looked at Danni again then nodded. He turned to see the Doctor even closer then before.

"Doctor, are you going to kiss me?" he whispered.

"Yes, Craig. Yes, I am." He fiddled with the screwdriver, trying to find the right setting. "Would you like that? Bit out of practice, kissing a man, but I've had some wonderful feedback from Danni." He puckered up and leant forward, making kissing noises. Craig pushed away, trying to stop his lips touching him.

"Doctor, no, I can't, I'm taken..." He laughed as he turned around to see the ship, "Oh, my God!" He shouted in the Doctor's face, who shrugged.

"Or we could just hold hands if it make you'd feel more comfortable?" He tried.

"What is happening?" Craig asked, now full-on panicking. A Cyberman came around the corner and spotted them.

"Cyberman!" Danni cried, poking the Doctor hard in the arm. She shouldn't feel this annoyed at him pretending to want to kiss Craig, but she just felt really angry. How dare he try and kiss someone in front of her?

"Well, first of all, I don't really love you, except as a friend." The Doctor explained, arms still around the man. Craig span around at the sound of the Cyberman approaching.

"And what is that?" The Doctor pointed the screwdriver at the machinery behind the Cyberman and, with a scream, reversed the teleport. Craig span and screamed to find them back in the lift.

"Quick reverse!" The Doctor explained quickly to try and calm him down.

"What the hell just happened?" Craig demanded as the lift pinged and the doors opened. Danni pushed past the pair, storming out and down the aisle outside. The Doctor ran out after her.

"Danni!" He shouted, "Where are you going?"

"To see Val." She snapped back over her shoulder, fuming. The Doctor watched her walk off, a sad frown on his face. She was doing so well, the children had calmed her right down but obviously seeing the Cyberman had riled her right back up again.

"Is she okay?" Craig asked and the Doctor nodded vaguely.

"She will be," He murmured before shaking his head. He'd let her calm down a bit, then he'd go find her, "They must have linked the teleport relay to the lift, but I've fused it! They can't use that again. Stuck up there on their spaceship." He explained to Craig, walking off from the lift.

"What were those things?" Craig asked as he followed, sensing the Doctor didn't want to talk about whatever was wrong with Danni. He'd thought she'd been kidding before, saying she was dying, but the Doctor had looked so concerned when she's stormed off that maybe there was something behind it.

"Cybermen." Craig paused for a moment, realising what the Doctor has just said.

"Ship? Space ship? We were in space?!"

~0~0~0~

Danni stormed through to the jewellery department and up to an older woman stood behind a glass counter full of necklaces and bracelets. She sat down on a stool next to the cash register, biting her nails hard in her anger. Val smiled at the girl; the Doctor had explained to her how she was very ill, although with what she didn't know, and how her moods could suddenly change after she had seen them playing with toys one minute and her storming off the next. Whatever was troubling her wouldn't be for long, so she walked up to her and patted her shoulder gently.

"Want a cup of tea, lovey?" She asked kindly and Danni nodded, a small smile appearing.

"That would be lovely, Val, thanks." Val told her to keep an eye on the counter for her and was back quickly with two white mugs of steaming tea in her hands. She handed Danni one, who gave her a small 'thanks' and began sipping it. Val waited patiently before Danni placed the cup down on top of the till.

"I don't know why I'm so angry!" She stated, "I mean, his harmless flirting has never bothered me before, and you could so tell he didn't mean anything he was saying to Craig but for some reason I just want to slap him!"

"Maybe you're just jealous?" Val reasoned but Danni shook her head.

"No, I don't think so, because I've been jealous before and this isn't what it feels like." She replied, "I don't know what's wrong with me, Val. I used to just be happy I was with him, and now suddenly I don't want him near anyone else. I just want to be at home, doing nothing and that has never been what I wanted. It's like, I can feel it building up inside of me, I'm becoming so irrational and I hate being angry at him. He's being so nice to me." She pinched her nose, squeezing her eyes shut as she tried to stop herself from crying. Now she was sad, the mood swings were just as exhausting as the lack of sleep. Val opened her mouth to reply but was interrupted by a customer. Danni reached over and grabbed her cup of tea, blowing on it gently to try and cool it down so she could drink it. Her anger had just gone as quick as it came, but the Doctor hadn't followed and now her heart ached with him not being there. She blew on the tea again, this time it coming out shakily as Val turned back to see tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Oh, sweetheart." she took the tea out of her hand and hugged her gently, "It'll all be okay. You'll get better, and the Doctor will help you. He doesn't care if you get angry, he just wants you healthy again." Danni nodded into the older woman's shoulder.

"I know." She whispered and Val let her go, patting her on the cheek.

"Calm yourself down a bit, then go find him. I'm sure he's worried sick." Danni smiled, she was probably right. Val smiled warmly back and went back to her job, serving a customer as Craig and The Doctor, with baby Alfie, came into the department. The Doctor smiled at Val as they walked past.

"Good afternoon, Val."

"Hello." She replied as the customer walked off. The Doctor continued for a moment before spotting Danni behind the counter, her eyes closed and fingers on her temples. He diverted off towards them when Craig grabbed his arm.

"Where am I investigating?" The Doctor shot him a slightly annoyed look, wanting to make sure Danni was okay.

"Well, look round. Ask questions. People like it when you're with a baby, babies are sweet, people talk to you. That's why I usually take a human with me." He explained.

"So I'm your baby?" the Doctor grinned at the thought.

"You're my baby!" He hugged Craig, who seemed fairly uncomfortable before firmly removing the Doctor from him and walking off with Alfie. The Doctor approached the counter, where Val was smiling at him.

"Hope you don't mind me saying, Doctor, but I think you're ever so sweet, looking after her like this." Val told him, motioning to Danni who hadn't opened her eyes having not noticed he was there. He tried on a pair of sunglasses, trying to mask his concern for Danni.

"All in days work, Val." He brushed off, placing the sunglasses down before wringing his hands together nervously. Val nudged him forward and he approached Danni, tapping her on the shoulder gently. She jumped, her eyes shot open and she span to see him smiling awkwardly at her. She replied with an apologetic one and he started beaming at her. She laughed slightly and stood up, hugging him which he returned tightly, kissing her on top of the head.

"Such dedication to each other, these days that seems so old-fashioned." Danni smiled at her the Doctor let her go, holding her hand tightly.

"You've not noticed anything unusual around here lately, Val?" He leant in close to the older woman, dropping his voice.

"Well..." Val started.

"Yes, yes?" He prompted eagerly.

"Mary Warnock saw Don Petheridge snogging Andrea Groom outside the Conservative Club on his so-called day off 'golfing'." The woman told him happily as Danni laughed. His face dropped and he sighed.

"I don't think that's what he meant." She told the older woman kindly.

"Yeah. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all. Come on Danni-Girl." He air-kissed Val on each cheek before the pair began walking away.

"And then there's that silver rat thing." She called after them. Danni looked up to see the Doctor smiling; bingo. They both turned together.

"What?" He asked her.

~0~0~0~

Danni and Val watched as the Doctor laid under the display table in the toy department, a net in one hand and his screwdriver in the other. He was scanning where the 'silver rat' had been seen last, trying to pick up any sign of it.

"A silver rat." He stood up, still scanning, "Glowing red eyes."

"Yes," Val confirmed, "then it zizzed off." The Doctor put his screwdriver away and grabbed Danni's hand again, "I wanted to get one for my nephew, but stockroom say there's no such item."

"I bet they do." The Doctor murmured, looking around.

"Well, what was it then? Answer me that." She asked, believing it to be some sort of toy. A crash from the ladies department had them spinning around, "What's all that hullabaloo?"

"Umm. That'll be our companion." He handed Val the net and pulled Danni along with him, Val smiling warmly after them.

"Aww!" They headed towards Craig, who was trying to pick up the rack of lingerie he had knocked over while calming Alfie who had started crying.

"Make a habit of hanging round in women's wear, sir?" The security guard asked him.

"I'm sorry, oh," he began rocking the stroller, "ssh, ssh, Alfie, come on." He tried.

"He's a pervert, look at him." the sales assistant exclaimed as they ran over, coming to halt next to the frazzled father.

"Hello, everyone! Here to help." The Doctor told them, and the two members of staff were suddenly smiling at his very presence.

"Hello, Doctor." They both said at the same time as Danni reached into the stroller, picking Alfie up and bouncing him while Craig straightened out the display.

"Hello. Has anyone seen a silver rat?" They both shook their head, "No, OK. Long shot, I see you've met my friend, Craig." He gestured to Craig before turning to the security guard, "Nice uniform George." He gave him the 'ok' sign with a whistle.

"Oh yes, but I do prefer Kelly's outfit, is that a new top?" Danni asked to sales assistant, who nodded.

"Yeah, it is actually." Kelly confirmed.

"Thank you, Doctor." George answered the Doctor's compliment, then motioned to Craig, "If he's with you, that's all right then."

"Sorry. I thought he was hassling me, 'cause that's the last thing I need today." The Doctor pulled out his brace, pointing to his badge then at George's, who nodded with a grin. He then made mouth motions with his hand, "'Cause Shona's not turned up, right, so I'm doing twice the work for the same money." Kelly rambled and the Doctor held up his finger to his lips.

"Ssh!" Kelly stopped talking, looking slightly alarmed at the fact she couldn't talk.

"Please teach me how to do that." Craig begged.

"No hold on... Un-ssh! Shona?" he asked Kelly.

"My supervisor. She's meant to be in today but never showed up."

"Where did you last see her?"

"She was heading towards the changing room, she said I could go home early because I had a date..." the Doctor nodded, interrupting her.

"Changing room, right. Craig, Danni-Girl, this way." He grabbed Danni's hand again, who had Alfie balanced on one hip. She turned back to Kelly.

"I'll be back later, you'll help me won't you?" She asked Kelly, "You can tell me about your date." Kelly grinned and nodded as they headed off.

"Back later?" The Doctor asked. Danni nodded.

"Yeah, did you not notice which part of the department we were in?" She asked with a smirk. The Doctor blushed slightly as he looked back.

"Danni!" He moaned, "Not in front of Craig."

"Yes, please, not in front of Craig." Craig added. He had lived in the same flat as them, he really didn't want to hear about it again.

~0~0~0~

The trio entered the ladies changing rooms, the Doctor holding a dress up against himself as if he was going to use it as an excuse why two men were in there. Danni still had Alfie on her hip, the baby gurgling away as Craig pushed his stroller. The Doctor threw down the dress on a table and they began walking up the aisle between the two lines of changing rooms.

"How do you do that? It's a power, isn't it, some sort of weird alien hypnotic power, I bet you excrete some sort of gas that makes people love you." Craig snapped quietly, annoyed at how quickly the people around the store seemed to like him, yet he was accused of being a pervert.

"Would that I could, Craig." The Doctor muttered as he opened one of the curtains, shutting them quickly when a woman screamed, "Sorry, Madam." He opened the curtain again, "I'd try that in red if I were you." He closed the curtain again and moved on. Danni frowned, feeling anger bubble up inside again. He hadn't meant to look at the near-naked woman, she told herself. She turned to Alfie and bounced him, cooing lightly. She had to stop getting so worked up over nothing.

"I'm right though, aren't I?" Craig pressed.

"I hope not." Danni replied, "Otherwise I'll have to question our entire relationship." The Doctor looked back at her from the room he was peering into.

"You love me, I've never excreted any weird alien gases at you." He promised and she smiled at him as he turned to Craig, "So do you, admit it."

"I don't love you! Don't start that again." Craig warned and Alfie gurgled. The Doctor grabbed the little boys hand and swung it gently.

"Yes, I know. Of course he does." He looked at Craig, "Of course you do, we're partners!"

"But I did exactly what you would have done, and I nearly got arrested!" The Doctor pulled out his screwdriver as Alfie made some more noises.

"Stormy thinks you should believe in yourself more." He scanned the area as he continued forwards, eliminating each changing room as he did.

"Great, now my baby is reviewing me." Craig muttered sarcastically, pushing the empty stroller along.

"Welcome to parenthood." Danni told him. The Doctor stopped scanning and entered the last changing room, some clothes still handing up in it.

"Here. Right here last night, a Cyberman took Shona." He told them.

"A Cyberman...I thought it was a little silver rat?"

"It's not a rat. It's a Cybermat!" Danni exclaimed happily, glad that she could still recall some stuff as the name jumped into her mind. The Doctor nodded and kissed her on the forehead before tickling the top of Alfie's head again.

"All right don't have a go at me just cause I don't know the names." Craig replied.

~0~0~0~

They made a quick exit from the changing rooms when a group of girls came in and started complaining about the two men being there. Danni placed Alfie in his stroller and they walked through the ladies department looking for the way out.

"Cybermats are infiltrators." He exclaimed to Craig, "Very small, very deadly... they collect power like bees collect pollen. One of them's been sucking the electrical energy from this area. But why a shop, you know, why not a nuclear power station?" Craig and Danni ground to a halt as the Doctor paced back and forth.

"OK, why?" Craig prompted, not knowing the answer.

"Let's ask it." He declared, "We wait for the shop to shut, we stake the place out, and grab ourselves a Cybermat." He slapped Craig's cheeks with each word to emphasis his point. Craig dodged out of his way, slightly annoyed at the abuse.

"And this is just a coincidence, is it?" Craig asked.

"What is?"

"Aliens in Colchester? Aliens twice in my life, happening to me just when you two turn up." The Doctor glared angrily at him, he did not appreciate him blaming him or Danni for this. He was just trying to help.

"This is not my fault, Craig, and it's not Danni's." He snapped back. Alfie started fussing and Craig leant over the stroller.

"Shh, shh. Look what you've done!" He scolded them.

"Actually, I think it's you shouting, you're scaring him!" Danni snapped, "How about you stop blaming the Doctor for the Earth's failings at security and realise he's just trying to help, you jackass!" Her hands clenched tightly at her sides, she was not about to let him insult the Doctor like that. The Doctor, sensing more arguing between the pair stepped between then and motioned to Alfie.

"It's his nappy, he's mentioned it twice." Craig turned his glare to the man.

"Well sorry, I don't speak baby, do I?" The Doctor placed his hands on his hips.

"There's a changing station over by electrical goods." He informed the man.

"And of course, you'd know that. Come on, Alfie." He took hold of the stroller and pushed the baby away.

"Craig it's a coincidence. It happens, it's what the universe does for..." Danni pulled on his sleeve, spotting something on the other side of the aisle.

"Doctor." He turned to see what she was looking at and saw Amy and Rory shopping together, Rory weighed down with all of Amy's shopping. A little girl ran over to Amy, pad and paper in hand.

"Can I have your autograph please?" The little girl asked. Amy looked at Rory, looking slightly bewildered.

"Yeah. Sure." Amy took the pad off her and scribbled her autograph down.

"..fun." The Doctor finished quietly, watching the companions he hadn't seen in 200 years. 200 years he'd been running around on his own, or with Danni whenever she popped up, but without them.

"What's your name?" Amy asked the little girl.

"Ellie." The girl replied. Amy motioned to the girls head with the pen.

"I like your hairband." She told the little girl as she handed the pad back.

"Thank you." The little girl replied before she ran off to her mum. Danni nudged him gently.

"Go talk to her." she suggested, "I'm sure they'll be happy to see you." He looked down at her, then at Amy, opening his mouth to call her. Instead, he ducked behind the clothes rack, hiding from them. He pulled Danni close, holding onto her tightly. They watched them leave and the little girl point in their direction as she talked to her mother. The Doctor looked in her direction questioningly then looked around, seeing the a wall-sized add for a perfume 'Petrichor' with Amy's face on it, 'For The Girl Who's Tired Of Waiting.'

"Amelia Pond." The Doctor whispered with a fond smile before tilting Danni's head up and kissing her deeply.
