~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

I woke up to someone yelling in the library "But Donna, she is never gone for more than a few days, and it's already been a few days, so she has to be here somewhere!" Ten says or more like yells to Donna making me groan and try and snuggle more into the couch.

"Well maybe she doesn't want to be found" I hear Donna suggesting.

"Why would she not want to be found! I am an amazing person to want to be around." the Doctor whines at her.

"Yea, well where haven't you checked yet?" she asks him.

"Uh, I haven't checked, the uh….oh I know, the library, but I doubt she is in there" the Doctor tells her.

'oh how you are so wrong Doctor' I think to myself.

"Well you won't know unless you look, so go look" she tells him and I hear the door of the library open.

"See, she isn't here, I can't see her anywhere." he says and goes to go out when Donna stops him from leaving.

"No, you just glanced around, who says she isn't up on a higher level, or even on the sofa" she scolds him.

"You are one terrible partner to her if you always brush her off like this, no wonder you get hit by her a lot." she tells him.

"Fine, I will find her because she might be anywhere it's not like she is on the sofa, she never goes on the sofa, unless I am there as well" he says and I hear his footsteps and then I notice his shadow covering me, but his back is faced to me.

"So I will simple just do this, because I know for a fact, that she would never, ever, sleep or be on the sofa without me." he says and leans back landing on me and making me grunt.

"Ouch, you jerk, get off of me, and let me sleep!" I yell and him grumpily and push him off me and he looks at me with wide eyes.

"W…what? What? what? But you never…you've never….what?" he start to say but I cover his mouth.

"Shut-up you are disturbing the peace" I mumble at him and quickly bring my hand away from his mouth because he licked it.

"You licked my hand!? Gross" I tell him and wipe my hand on his suit.

"See, I told you that she would be in here, but do you ever listen to anyone…no" Donna rambles and I quickly get up and walk over to her.

"Donna Noble it is my greatest pleasure to meet you for the first time, but not the last. Now what did you two just do?" I ask her

"Pompeii" the Doctor says without emotion.

"Oh, uh so how about an alien planet next?" I ask and the Doctor nods.

"Great idea." he says rushing us to the console room.

"Wait, at least let me change!" I yell at him and he stops then looks at my outfit and nods.

"Yea, you go change I will set us to go somewhere random." he tells me and I roll my eyes at his childishness.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

I was humming 'Check Yes Juliet' by We The Kings as I was looking in the closet in my room, the Tardis seemed to give me a few outfits to pick from, since it was going to be cold. I decided on dark blue skinny jeans, a avenger shirt, a very warm jacket, and boots to top it off.

I stuck my sonic in my boot as well as putting my phone in my boot and grabbed a cute Tardis blue beanie for my head as well as my glasses because it seemed to fit with this outfit, plus my eyes were getting irritated with having my contacts in.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

As soon as I got into the console room I heard the Doctor asking Donna a question. "Yeah. Why do you think I keep going?"

"Oh. All right then, you and me both. This is barmy. I was born in Chiswick. I've only ever had package holidays. Now I'm here. This is so. I mean it's. I don't know, it's all sort of. I don't even know what the word is." she tells him and the Doctor seems to notice me.

"Ah, there you are, it took you longer than I would have thought." he says and grabs my hand.

"Well I got to choose from a few outfits that the Tardis chose for me" I tell him and interlock our hands and start to swing them.

"So, ready for an adventure Donna?" I ask her grinning.

"Yea, if you say so, though both of your definitions of adventure seems to be way different than mine" she tells us and walks outside.

"Oh, I've got the word. Freezing." she tells us and turns to us as we walk out.

"Snow! Oh, real snow." I smile and spin around.

"Proper snow at last. That's more like it. Lovely. What do you think?" the Doctor says turning to Donna.

"Bit cold." she says shivering a bit.

"Look at that view." I tell them pointing to the massive icicles hanging from bridges of rocks over the vast ravines.

"Yep. Beautiful, cold view." Donna says.

"Millions of planets, millions of galaxies, and we're on this one. Molto bene. Bellissimo, says Donna, born in Chiswick. All you've got is a life of work and sleep, and telly and rent and tax and takeaway dinners, all birthdays and Christmases and two weeks holiday a year, and then you end up here. Donna Noble, citizen of the Earth, standing on a different planet. How about that Donna?" the Doctor rambles not noticing Donna leaving to go get a coat from the Tardis.

"Donna?" the Doctor questions and looks around for her.

Donna comes back out from getting a big fur coat with a hood from the Tardis. "Sorry, you were saying?" she asks him.

"Better?" I ask her.

"Lovely, thanks." she says to me.

"Comfy?" the Doctor asks her.

"Yep." she responds.

"Can you hear anything inside that?" the Doctor asks her.

"Pardon?" she jokes.

"All right, I was saying, citizen of the Earth" the Doctor says and a space rocket glides slowly above us.

"Rocket. Blimey, a real proper rocket. Now that's what I call a spaceship. You've got a box, he's got a Ferrari. Come on, let's go see where he's going." Donna tells us.

I started hearing delicate music as we were crossing a rock bridge.

"Hold on, can you two hear that? Donna, take your hood down. " the Doctor tells her.

"What?" Donna asks.

"That noise is like a song. Over there." the Doctor says pointing and we walk in the direction.

We found an Ood lying on the ground, partly covered in snow.

"What is it?" Donna asks us.

"An Ood. He's called an Ood." I tell her and look at the Ood sadly.

"But it's face." Donna tells us trying to figure it out.

"Donna, don't. Not now. It's a he, not an it. Give me a hand, you as well Harmony." the Doctor says to her

"Sorry." Donna mutters.

"I don't know where the heart is. I don't know if he's got a heart. Talk to him, keep him going." the Doctor says .

"It's all right, we've got you. Er, what's your name?" Donna asks the Ood.

"Designated Ood Delta 50." the Ood replies to her.

"My name's Donna. And that's Harmony" Donna says pointing to me while speaking into his translator ball.

"No. No, no, no. You don't need to." the Doctor says to her still trying to figure out what was wrong.

"Sorry. Oh, God. This is the Doctor. Just what you need, a doctor. Couldn't be better, hey?" Donna tries to help.

"You've been shot." the Doctor says finally figuring out what happened.

"The circle." Delta 50 starts to say.

"No, don't try to talk." I tell him gently.

"The circle must be broken." he says again.

"Circle? What do you mean? Delta 50, what circle? Delta 50? What circle? " the Doctor starts questioning him and trying to get answers, but before he can Delta 50 sits up with a roar, and red eyes, then exhales and falls back dead.

"He's gone." Donna says sadly.

"Careful." the Doctor says to her.

"There you are, sweetheart. We were too late. What do we do, do we bury him?" I ask the Doctor and take his hand.

"The snow'll take care of that." the Doctor says shaking his head.

"Who was he? What's an Ood?" Donna asks.

"They're servants of humans in the forty second century. Mildly telepathic. That was the song. It was his mind calling out." I tell her and lean my head on the Doctor's shoulder.

"I couldn't hear anything. He sang as he was dying." Donna says.

"His eyes turned red." the Doctor says pointing out what had happened.

"What's that mean?" Donna asks.

"Trouble. Come on. The Ood are harmless. They're completely benign. Except, the last time I met them, there was this force, like a stronger mind, powerful enough to take them over." the Doctor says to her.

"What sort of force?" Donna asks him.

"Oh, long story." he tells her.

"Long walk." I point out.

" You already know what happened, It was the Devil." he says to me and replies to Donna.

"Dude" I smack him in the chest lightly, "I haven't done that yet, so don't tell me anymore." I tell him.

"If you're going to take the mickey, I'll just put my hood back up." Donna says.

"Must be something different this time, though. Something closer to home. Ah ha! Civilisation." the Doctor says as we get to the Factory Complex.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

We get into the factory complex and the Doctor run in front of the group of people and starts to apologized for us being 'late'. "Sorry, sorry, sorry. Late. Don't mind us. Hello. The guards let us through."

"And you would be?" Solana asks us.

"The Doctor, Harmony and Donna Noble." The Doctor says holding up his physic paper.

"Representing the Noble Corporation PLC Limited, Intergalactic." Donna says trying to make it sound more believable.

"Must have fallen off my list. My apologies. Won't happen again. Now then, Doctor Noble, Mrs Noble, Miss Noble, if you'd like to come with me." Solana tells us.

"Oh, no, no, no, no. We're not married." the Doctor says wide eyes.

"And, I am not absolutely not their daughter" I tell her.

"We're so not married." Donna says pointing to the doctor and her.

"Never." the Doctor says and reaches for my hand.

"Never ever." Donna says shaking her head.

"Of course. And here are your information packs, vouchers inside. Now if you'd like to come with me, the Executive Suites are nice and warm." Solana says and hands us a packet and the Doctor looks at it somewhat interested.

We start to walk in the building and an alarm goes off.

"Oh, what's that? That sounds like an alarm." the Doctor says and I whack him.

"No, it's just the dinner bell, what do you think it would be?" I say to him sarcastically.

"Oh, it's just a siren for the end of the work shift. Now then, this way, quick as you can." Solana tells us though not sounding so sure of herself and ushering us inside.

The Doctor shrugs and walks inside pulling me with him because he was holding my hand.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

We get to a presentation area and there are three Ood are standing on small platforms, whilst others are taking round trays of drinks.

"As you can see, the Ood are happy to serve, and we keep them in facilities of the highest standard. Here at the Double O, that's Ood Operations, we like to think of the Ood as our trusted friends." Solana lectures.

"We keep the Ood healthy, safe, and educated." she continues.

"We don't just breed the Ood. We make them better. Because at heart, what is an Ood, but a reflection of us? If your Ood is happy, then you'll be happy, too." Solana continues her speech.

After she was finished she walked down and started talking about other things "I'd now like to point out a new innovation from Ood Operations. We've introduced a variety package with the Ood translator ball. You can now have the standard setting. How are you today, Ood?" She says and asks the Ood.

"I'm perfectly well, thank you." Ood 1 says happily.

"Or perhaps after a stressful day, a little something for the gentlemen. And how are you, Ood?" Solana asks the second Ood.

"All the better for seeing you." the second Ood says in a husky female voice.

"And the comedy classic option. Ood, you dropped something." she says to the third Ood.

"D'oh." the third Ood says with a Homer Simpson voice.

"All that for only five additional credits. The details are in your brochures. Now, there's plenty more food and drink, so don't hold back." she says and leaves

The Doctor pulls out his glasses and goes to her lectern. He uses its computer access to light up the big screen and me and Donna follow him.

"Ah, got it. The Ood Sphere, I've been to this solar system before. Years ago. Ages. Close to the planet Sense Sphere. Let's widen out." the Doctor says and pushes some more button. "The year 4126. That is the Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire." he says walking around the podium and going in front of the screen.

"4126? It's 4126. I'm in 4126." Donna says not really believing it.

"It's good, isn't it?" I tell her smiling.

"What's the Earth like now?"

"Bit full. But you see, the Empire stretches out across three galaxies." the Doctor says pointing and moving his finger across the screen.

"It's weird. I mean, it's brilliant, but. Back home, the papers and the telly, they keep saying we haven't got long to live. Global warming, flooding, all the bees disappearing." Donna says shaking her head still not believing that she was here.

"Yeah. That thing about the bees is odd." the Doctor says with his adorable scrunched up face that he makes especially with those glasses.

"But look at us. We're everywhere. Is that good or bad, though? I mean, are we like explorers? Or more like a virus?" Donna says.

"Sometimes I wonder." the Doctor mutters.

"What are the red dots?" Donna says and nods to the red dots.

"Ood distribution centres." I tell her.

"Across three galaxies? Don't the Ood get a say in this?" Donna says and walks off and goes over to an Ood and I follow her.

"Er, sorry, but." Donna says and gently touches his arm and he turns to look at her.

"Hello. Tell me, are you all like this?" she asks as the Doctor joins us over by the Ood.

"I do not understand, Miss." Ood one says to her holding it's translator ball.

"Why do you say Miss? Do I look single?" Donna says felling a little insulted.

"Back to the point." the Doctor says to her nodding his head and widening his eyes.

"Yeah. What I mean is, are there any free Ood? Are there Ood running wild somewhere, like wildebeest." Donna asks Ood one.

"All Ood are born to serve. Otherwise, we would die." Ood one responds to her.

"But you can't have started like that. Before the humans, what were you like?" Donna asks the Ood and I reached for the Doctor's hand.

"The circle." Ood one says.

"What do you mean? What circle?" the Doctor questions Ood one.

"The circle. The circle is…" Ood one starts to say but Solana comes in interrupting him before he can finish.

"Ladies and gentlemen. All Ood to hospitality stations, please. " Solana tells the Ood.

"I've had enough of the schmoozing. Do you fancy going off the beaten track?" the Doctor says asking us as he takes off his glasses and holds out a map of the complex.

"Now, if I can introduce you" Solana says in the distance.

"Rough guide to the Ood Sphere? Works for me." Donna says grinning.

"Yeah" I tell her and we go to wander off.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

we get outside and a wire mesh fence and the Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver on the gate for us to get in.

"Ood shift eight now commencing. Repeat. Ood shift eight now commencing." the loud speaker says as we get in and go up some snowy stairs and get to the top where we are now able to see everything. We watch the Ood marching through in double file from an upper catwalk. But one at the back falls down.

"Get up. I said get up." the solider man says cracking a whip.

"Servants? They're slaves." Donna tells us and I flinch at the sound of the whip.

"Get up! March." the solider man says again and whips the whip again.

"Last time I met the Ood, I never thought. I never asked." the Doctor says.

"That's not like you." Donna tells him.

"I was busy. So busy I couldn't save them. I had to let the Ood die. I reckon I owe them one." the Doctor says turning and watching.

"That looks like the boss." Donna points out.

"Let's keep out of his way. Come on." I tell them and we leave.

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The Doctor had put his glasses back on and kept looking at the map as we walked, I stopped at a door and Donna noticed the door as well and stopped as well, but the Doctor kept walking so she puts two fingers into her mouth and blows making the Doctor stop and turn around taking off his glasses.

"Where'd you learn to whistle?" the Doctor questions her and gives her the 'what'

"West Ham, every Saturday." she breathes out as he unlocks the door and we walk in causing the alarms to go off.

The room was full of shipping containers.

"Ood export. You see?" the Doctor tells us pointing up. "Lifts up the containers, takes them to the rocket sheds, ready to be flown out all over the three galaxies." he continues and we look around.

"What, you mean, these containers are full of?" Donna asks her mouth agape.

"What do you think?" I ask her and go to open a container looking inside there are Ood are standing silently.

"Oh, it stinks. How many of them do you think there are in each one?" Donna asks.

"Hundred? More?" I say looking at the Ood sadly.

"A great big empire built on slavery." Donna says.

"It's not so different from your time." the Doctor breathes out.

"Oi. I haven't got slaves." Donna tells him insulted and I hit his chest.

"Rude!" I tell him.

"Who do you think made your clothes?" the Doctor says to her.

"Is that why you travel round with a human at your side? It's not so you can show them the wonders of the universe, it's so you can take cheap shots?" Donna says trying to insult him.

"Sorry." the Doctor says and turns back to the Ood.

"Don't, Spaceman" Donna tells him. "I don't understand, the door is open, why don't you just run away?" Donna asks the Ood.

"For what reason?" the Ood asks her

"You could be free." Donna says like it is obvious.

"I do not understand the concept." the Ood replies to her.

"What is it with that Persil ball? I mean, they're not born with it, are they? Why do they have to be all plugged in?" Donna asks.

"Ood, tell me. Does the circle mean anything to you?" the Doctor asks the Ood.

"The circle must be broken." All the Ood says at the same time.

"Oh, that is creepy." Donna breathes out.

"But what is it? What is the circle?" the Doctor asks them again.

"The circle must be broken." they reply.

"Why?" he asks his eyes wide.

"So that we can sing" they reply.

An alarm blares, "Oh, that's us. Come on" I tell them grabbing the Doctor's hand and we run out of the cargo room, but Donna stops.

"Doctor, Harmony there's a door." I hear Donna yell at us and I feel bad knowing that the guards were going to come out of the door.

Once we were further away the Doctor notices that Donna wasn't with us "Where've you gone?" he says and then turns his head around and then pulls me with im as we continue to run

"Donna? Where are you?" The Doctor yells as we continue to run then we stop and start to walk, the Doctor looking around and notices the claw going after us.

We were now being chased by a freaking claw, "now I know how toys in a claw machine must feel" I yell as we run.

"Of all the things you are thinking of you are thinking of a claw machine!?" the Doctor yells and the claw comes down and barely misses us.

We continue to run trying to dodge the claw but it finally knocks the Doctor off his feet but gets up, he then jumps over some barrels I follow as well, him landing on his back, me I landed on top of him and the claw starts to come down, but right before it can grab us it stops and I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

Some guards came and grabs us holding our hands behind our backs and leads us away.

"Doctor, get me out of here." Donna yells from inside a cargo bin

"If you don't do what she says, you're really in trouble. Not from me, from her." the Doctor says trying to get them to listen to Donna

"Unlock the container." Head guard guy says and they unlock the container.

Donna runs out. "Doctor. Harmony" she says and I grab her in a hug the Doctor hugging her also.

"There we go, safe and sound." the Doctor says grinning.

"Never mind about me. What about them?" Donna says and the red eyed Ood come out one taking its translator ball and electrocutes, and kills a guard that was near the container.

"Red alert. Fire!" the head dude guy says.

More Ood come out of other containers.

"Shoot to kill." he tells the others.

While the guards fire their guns, The Doctor, Donna, Solana, and I run outside.
