Utopia

Alyssa landed in a shaking Tardis, "What is going on?" She yelled as she tried to get her footing The Tenth doctor appeared in front of her

"I don't know we're heading to the year one hundred trillion. The end of the Universe." The Doctor said, Alyssa instantly knew what episode she was in, The Tardis stopped shaking and The Doctor said: "Well, we've landed."

"So what's out there?" Martha said, Alyssa, smiled as she never met Martha before this trip. Even though this trip was a 20th out of ten she was still excited to meet her and Jack.

"I don't know." The Doctor said,

"Say that again. That's rare." Martha said

"Not even the Time Lords came this far. We should leave. We should go. We should really, really go."

"That is such a lie and you know it Doctor come on now let's have a look around!" Alyssa said running to the door and opening it. The Doctor smiled and followed her out, Martha joining them

"Oh my god." Martha said, before running over to where an Unconscious Jack was. Her medical training immediately kicked in and she checked for a pulse. "Can't get a pulse. Hold on. You've got that medical kit thing." She said before running back into the Tardis.

"Hello again. Oh, I'm sorry." The Doctor said, Alyssa smiled

"This is actually my first time meeting both Martha and Jack. "Alyssa said, Martha ran back out holding a box

""Here we go. It's a bit odd, though. Not very hundred trillion. That coat's more like World War Two." Martha said,

"I think he came with us." The Doctor said

"How do you mean, from Earth?"

"Must have been clinging to the outside of the Tardis all the way through the vortex. Well, that's very him."

"What, do you know him? More on that who the Hell are you?" she said looking at Alyssa, who looked stunned, that she didn't recognize her.

"I'm Alyssa,"

"But you're not Alyssa you don't look anything like her!" Martha yelled, Alyssa reeled back

"Do I regenerate?" She asked, before Martha could respond

"Anyway! He's a friend of mine. Used to travel with me, back in the old days." The Doctor said,

"But he's. I'm sorry, there's no heartbeat. There's nothing. He's dead." Martha said, Alyssa held up her fingers and counted down from 3 and suddenly Jack took a breath and sat up clutching Martha who screamed. "Well so much for me!" She said before looking back at Jack and saying "It's all right. Just breathe deep. I've got you."

"Captain Jack Harkness. And who are you?" Jack said

"Martha Jones."

"Nice to meet you, Martha Jones." Alyssa laughed

"Oh, don't start." the Doctor said,

"I was only saying hello," Jack said,

" I don't mind," Martha said before helping him up, once he got to his feet, Alyssa slammed into him with a hug. Jack looked down at her

"I love the hug, really I do, but who are you?" Jack said, Alyssa's arms fell to her side, she took a step back.

"I'm Alyssa, really what's with people not recognizing me. Do I regenerate or something?" Alyssa was about to ramble more on about it but Jack grabbed her arms

"Alyssa?" Jack said, Alyssa smiled up at him

"Yes! Finally!" Jack laughed and took her back into a hug and swung her around "It's my little sister!" Alyssa didn't mind being called his little sister, He put her down and looked up at the Doctor "Doctor." he said

"Captain."

"Good to see you."

"And you. Same as ever. Although, have you had work done?" The Doctor said,

"You can talk."

"Oh yes, the face. Regeneration. How did you know this was me?'

"The police box kind of gives it away. I've been following you for a long time. You abandoned me." Jack said, offended about the Doctor leaving him.

"Did I? Busy life. Moving on." The Doctor said,

"Just got to ask. The Battle of Canary Wharf. I saw the list of the dead. It said Rose Tyler."

"Oh, no! Sorry, she's alive."

"You're kidding." Jack asked in disbelief,

"Parallel world, safe and sound. And Mickey, and her mother."

"Oh, yes!" Jack said, laughing before hugging the Doctor. Alyssa watching with a big smile on her face

Soon the four walked around exploring what they knew was the end of the Universe, talking about what Jake did right after the Doctor had abandoned her. They reach a cliff and saw a city. "Is that a city?" Martha said,

"A city or a hive, or a nest, or a conglomeration. Like it was grown. But look, there. That's like pathways, roads? Must have been some sort of life, long ago." The Doctor said,

"What killed it?"

"Time." Alyssa said, looking at the city sadly,

"Just time. Everything's dying now. All the great civilizations have gone. This isn't just night. All the stars have burned up and faded away into nothing." The Doctor added,

"They must have an atmospheric shell. We should be frozen to death." Jack said

"Well, Martha, Alyssa and I, maybe. Not so sure about you, Jack." The Doctor said,

"What about the people? Does no one survive?" Martha asked

"Life always finds a way, even if it's not the best way," Alyssa whispered sadly, the Doctor heard her and put his arm around her shoulders.

"I suppose we have to hope life will find a way." Right, when he said that there was a man who they could see was being chased,

"Well, He's not doing too bad." Martha said,"That looks like a hunt." Alyssa said,

"Yeah that does look like a hunt." The Doctor said and began running to help the man. The others following him

"Oh, I've missed this." Jack said, soon they met up with the

"I've got you." Jack said and pushed him behind the group, Alyssa grabbing him and backing away as Jack took out a Revolver and pointed at the group of people that looked like a human but had sharp teeth throughout their whole mouth.

"Jack, don't you dare!" the Doctor said, not wanting Jack to kill them.

"What the hell are they?" Martha said, thinking that they were not human, but they were human just really evolved.

"There's more of them. We've got to keep going." The man said, Alyssa looked back at him

"It's going to be fine, I promise." Alyssa said, he man looked at her unbelievingly but that look soon fell at the soft look Alyssa had on her face.

"I've got a ship nearby. It's safe. It's not far, it's over there." He said pointing at where the group just came from only to see more of the evolved humans appear on the cliff. "Or maybe not."

"We're close to the silo. If we get to the silo, then we're safe." The man said, suggesting that they go there.

"Silo?" The Doctor asked and they all agreed to go to the Silo. Which they reached soon by running and the man shouted

"it's the Futurekind! Open the gate!"

"Show me your teeth! Show me your teeth! Show me your teeth!" The guard said Alyssa did what they asked and soon the rest did too and the Guard shouted "Human! Let them in! Let them in!" The gate soon opened and they rushed through and the gate was closed once more right when the Futurekind reached it. One of the guards shot at the ground and the Future kind stopped running only for the one in the front to say

"Humans. Humani. Make feast."

"Go back to where you came from. I said, go back. Back!" The Guard said holding his gun up prepared to shoot.

"Oh, don't tell him to put his gun down," Jack said to the Doctor

"He's not my responsibility."

"And I am? Huh, that makes a change."

"Kind want you. Kind hungry." The leader of the futurekind said, before backing away.

"Thanks for that." The Doctor said to the Guard,

"Right. Let's get you inside." The guard said,

"My name is Padra Toc Shafe Cane. Tell me. Just tell me, can you take me to Utopia?" Padra asked the guard who answered with a yes.

When they got to the Silo, the Doctor convinced the people who were about to leave to go on a supply run to see if they could get the Tardis. The group followed a little boy who was going to help Padra who was looking for his family. Soon they entered a hallway that had many humans on each side. Martha said looking at the people, "It's like a refugee camp."

"It's Stinking. Oh, sorry. No offense. Not you." Jack said, only for Alyssa to smack him on the back of the head

"Rude!" Alyssa muttered, Jack rubbed his head but, smiled at Alyssa anyway.

"Don't you see that? The ripe old smell of humans. You survived. Oh, you might have spent a million years evolving into clouds of gas, and another million as downloads, but you always revert to the same basic shape. The fundamental humans." The Doctor said, smiling about how many humans survive till the end the of the Universe. "End of the universe and here you are. Indomitable! That's the word. Indomitable! Ha!"

Finally, they managed to find Padra's family, and even Alyssa smiled as Martha said: "It's not all bad news." As Padra ran to his mother and hugged her, his brother joining. Alyssa watched as Jack walked over to a man and shook his head

"Captain Jack Harkness. And who are you?" He said flirting a bit,

"Stop it." The Doctor immediately said and started trying to get a door open. "Give us a hand with this. It's half deadlocked. I need you to overwrite the code. Let's find out where we are." They get the door open only for the doctor to almost fall into a pit that contained a rocket, only for Jack and Alyssa to pull him back.

"Gotcha," Jack said,

"Thanks."

"How did you cope without me?" Jack asked the Doctor wanting a legitimate answer.

"I have Alyssa," he said, making Alyssa smile behind him, and thought maybe her being stuck here wasn't that bad.

"Now that is what I call a rocket," Martha said examining the rocket

"They're not refugees, they're passengers." The Doctor said, "He said they were going to Utopia." Alyssa looked down

"Or maybe someone is lying," she whispered low enough so no one could hear her,

"The perfect place. Hundred trillion years, it's the same old dream. You recognize those engines?" The Doctor asked Jack

"Nope. Whatever it is, it's not rocket science. But it's hot, though." They turn around and Jack closed the door, "Boiling. But if the universe is falling apart, what does Utopia mean?" Behind them, an old man came and looked at the group his eyes resting on Alyssa for a second almost like he recognized her from somewhere. His eyes flipped to Jack

"The Doctor?" The man said, Mistaking Jack for the Doctor. "

That's me." The Doctor said, and the old man turned to him and started repeating Good and pulled the Doctor with him. The rest following them.

The Old man took the group down to his laboratory which was filled with scientific equipment which he went around explaining.

"Chan welcome tho." A blue alien said when they entered

"Now, this is the gravitissimal accelerator. It's past its best but it works. And over here is the footprint impellor system. Now, do you know anything about endtime gravity" Martha and Jack stopped next to the blue alien while Alyssa followed the Doctor around with the Professor.

"Hello. Who are you?" Martha asked the blue alien,

"Chan Chantho, tho." Chantho said,

"Captain Jack Harkness." Jack said,

"But we can't get it to harmonize." The Professor said to the Doctor trying to get help from the Doctor

"Stop it." The Doctor said when he heard Jack introduce himself to Chantho, Alyssa laughed a bit

"Can't I say hello to anyone?" Jack said,"For you that's flirting!" Alyssa said,

"Chan I do not protest tho." Chantho said causing Jack to smile

"Maybe later, Blue." He said, He walked over to where the Doctor and Alyssa was and said: "So, what have we got here?" But the Doctor ignored him

"And all this feeds into the rocket?" He asked,

"Yeah, except without a stable footprint, you see, we're unable to achieve escape velocity. If only we could harmonize the five impact patterns and unify them, well, we might yet make it. What do you think, Doctor? Any ideas?"

"Well, er, basically, sort of, not a clue." The Doctor said, looking around at all the machinery.

"Nothing?" The Professor said, a bit disappointed

"I'm not from around these parts. I've never seen a system like it. Sorry."

"No, no. I'm sorry. It's my fault. There's been so little help."

Martha who walked over to a section that looked like a sitting room pulled a hand out of Jack's bag "Oh, my God. You've got a hand? A hand in a jar. A hand in a jar in your bag." She said, All of them walked over and the Doctor looked at it sitting down

"But that, that, that's my hand." he said looking up at Jack in confusion and shock

"I said I had a Doctor detector."

"Chan, is this a tradition amongst your people tho?" Chantho asked also confused about why the Doctor had both of his hand

"Not on my street. What do you mean, that's your hand? You've got both your hands, I can see them." Martha said,

"Long story. I lost my hand Christmas Day, in a swordfight." The Doctor said, causing Alyssa to perk up

"Am I with you? I didn't really have a chance to talk to Jackie last time I was there." Alyssa said, The Doctor looked up at her smiling and nodded.

"What? And you grew another hand?" Martha asked still in a bit of disbelief.

"Er, yeah, yeah, I did. Yeah. Hello." The Doctor said and the Professor asked: "Might I ask, what species are you?"

"Time Lord, we're the last of. Heard of them? Legend or anything? Not even a myth? Blimey, end of the universe is a bit humbling." The Doctor said, gesturing to Alyssa and himself, in a bit of disbelief that they didn't know about the Time Lords.

"Chan it is said that I am the last of my species too tho," Chantho said

"Sorry, what was your name?" The Doctor asked before she had a chance to respond,

"My assistant and good friend, Chantho. A survivor of the Malmooth. This was their planet, Malcassairo, before we took refuge." The professor siad,

"The city outside, that was yours?" The Doctor asked,

"Chan the conglomeration died tho." Chantho said,

"Conglomeration. That's what I said." The Doctor said Alyssa sighed and reached up and smacked the back of the Doctor's head

"You're supposed to say sorry." She said the doctor rubbed the back of his head and did, in fact, say sorry

"Chan most grateful tho." Chantho said

"You grew another hand?" Martha said, still caught up over the fact that he grew another hand.

"Hello, again." He said wiggling his fingers at her, He stood up and walked over to her and offered his hand to her to shake.

"It's fine. Look, really, it's me." The Doctor said,

"All this time and you're still full of surprises," Martha said, taking the hand that grew back,

"Chan you are most unusual tho," Chantho said, Alyssa laughed and said, "yes he is but he is also wonderful." The Doctor smiled down at Alyssa beaming at the compliment. "So what about those things outside? The Beastie Boys. What are they?" Jack said

"We call them the Futurekind, which is a myth in itself, but it's feared they are what we will become unless we reach Utopia." The Professor said,

"And Utopia is?" The Doctor asked,

"Oh, every human knows of Utopia. Where have you been?"

"Bit of a hermit."

"A hermit with friends?" The Professor said looking at the group,

"Hermits United. We meet up every ten years and swap stories about caves. It's good fun, for a hermit. So, er, Utopia?" The Doctor said and The Professor walked over to a screen the group following them and pulled up the signal that drew them to it. "The call came from across the stars, over and over again. Come to Utopia. Originating from that point"

"Where is that?"

"Oh, it's far beyond the Condensate Wilderness, out towards the Wildlands and the Dark Matter reefs, calling us in. The last of the humans scattered across the night."

"What do you think's out there?"

"We can't know. A colony, a city, some sort of haven? The Science Foundation created the Utopia Project thousands of years ago to preserve mankind, to find a way of surviving beyond the collapse of reality itself. Now perhaps they found it. Perhaps not. But it's worth a look, don't you think?"

"Oh, yes." The Doctor said and started asking other questions. Alyssa watched the Professor, close his eyes and began to tense up and she knew why he was hearing the drumbeat. The Doctor soon noticed and repeated his name and he finally snapped out of it

"right, that's enough talk. There's work to do. Now if you could leave, thank you." The professor said, trying to move past what happened

"You all right?" The Doctor asked concerned

"Yes, I'm fine. And busy."

"Except that rocket's not going to fly, is it? This footprint mechanism thing, it's not working." The Doctor said leaning onto a device and the professor dismissed him

"We'll find a way." he said

"You're stuck on this planet. And you haven't told them, have you? That lot out there, they still think they're going to fly."

"Well, it's better to let them live in hope."

"Quite right, too. And I must say, Professor er, what was it?"

"Yana." Professor Yana said and the Doctor walked over to him "

Professor Yana. This new science is well beyond me, but all the same, a boost reversal circuit, in any time frame, must be a circuit which reverses the boost. So, I wonder, what would happen if I did this?" He said taking the cable Yana had in his hand and he took his Sonic Screwdriver and use it on the cable and flipped a switch, Right then every machine surged to life

"Chan it's working tho!"Chantho said in joy

"But how did you do that?" Professor Yana said,

"Oh, we've been chatting away, I forgot to tell you. I'm brilliant." But Alyssa said at the same time: "The Doctor's brilliant."

The Doctor gave everyone a task and they worked fast to get the rocket ready to leave so they could go to what they thought was Utopia.

"Professor, tell the Doctor we've found his blue box." Someone said over the comms, Alyssa smiled and the Doctor said to Yana,

"Professor, it's a wild stab in the dark, but I may just have found you a way out." He said when he looked at a screen that had the Tardis on it. The Doctor left to get the Tardis and, the Drumbeat returned for Yana who was staring at the Tardis. Alyssa walked over to him

"Are you alright?" Alyssa said, which snapped Yana back to reality and he looked at Alyssa

"Yes I'm fine." he said, Alyssa nodded and turned away to get back to what she was doing only for him to call to her "Do I know you from somewhere?" Alyssa turned back confused

"No, you don't, why?" Alyssa said,

"It's just something about your face seems really familiar but I can't place it." Yana said examining her before shaking his head and said: "but it must be nothing." Alyssa nodded her head once more and turned away going back to what she was doing now scared because somehow the Master knew who her but she had no idea how.

Work continued as the Doctor brought the Tardis over and gave the rocket a bit extra power. Alyssa watched as Yana helped control Radiation levels down so a man could enter a room and work on something. Wondering how someone so nice could hide someone so evil? Her thoughts were interrupted by an Alarm shouting and Chantho saying "Chan we're losing power tho."

"Radiation's rising!" The Doctor yelled,

"We've lost control!" Jack yelled

"The chamber's going to flood," Yana said,

"Jack, override the vents!" The Doctor yelled and Jack ran over to a wall and yanked out two cables

"We can jump-start the override." Jack said, before putting the two together and getting electrocuted, he fell to the floor dead and Alyssa walked over to him and leaned down

"you have to be an Idiot Jack, you see two sparkling cables and instead of putting them down you electrocute yourself." Alyssa said,

"The chamber's flooded with radiation, yes?" The Doctor said as Martha began to give mouth to mouth resuscitation.

"Without the couplings, the engines will never start. It was all for nothing." Yana said, losing hope about the humans ever reaching Utopia.

"Oh, I don't know. Martha, leave him." The Doctor said, walking over to Martha and pulling her away.

"You've got to let me try."

"Come on, come on, just listen to me. Now leave him alone. It strikes me, Professor, you've got a room which no man can enter without dying. Is that correct?' The Doctor said addressing Yana.

"Yes." Yana said,

"Well," The Doctor said, right when Jack returned to life,

"Welcome back, big bro," Alyssa said,

"I think I've got just the man." The Doctor said

"Was someone kissing me?""You come back to life and that is the first thing you ask?" Alyssa said, before helping him up and following The Doctor and Jack down to the Radiation chamber, after begging the Doctor to let her come, she didn't want to be with the Master when he opened the watch.

"Lieutenant, get on board the rocket! I promise you're going to fly." The Doctor said,

"The chamber's flooded." The Lieutenant said,

"Trust me. We've found a way of tripping the system. Run!" The Doctor said and the Lieutenant left and Jack began taking off his jacket and handing it to Alyssa. "What are you taking your clothes off for?"

"I'm going in," he responded

"Well, by the looks of it, I'd say the stet radiation doesn't affect clothing, only flesh."

"Well, I look good though. How long have you known?" Jack said asking about how long he knew that he couldn't die.

"Ever since I ran away from you. Good luck." The Doctor said, and Jack went inside the chamber and began to finish what the previous man died to do.

"When did you first realize?" The Doctor said, Asking Jack about how he figured how he couldn't die.

"Earth, 1892. Got in a fight in Ellis Island. A man shot me through the heart. Then I woke up. Thought it was kind of strange. But then it never stopped. Fell off a cliff, trampled by horses, World War One, World War Two, poison, starvation, a stray javelin. In the end, I got the message. I'm the man who can never die. And all that time you knew." Alyssa flinched about Jack being killed by a stray javelin.

"That's why I left you behind. It's not easy even just looking at you, Jack, because you're wrong."

"Thanks."

"You are. I can't help it. I'm a Time Lord. It's instinct. It's in my guts. You're a fixed point in time and space. You're a fact. That's never meant to happen. Even the Tardis reacted against you, tried to shake you off. Flew all the way to the end of the universe just to get rid of you."

"So what you're saying is that you're, er, prejudiced, but what about Alyssa, she's a Time Lady but she doesn't look at me like I'm wrong.""I never thought about it that way." The Doctor said glancing back at Alyssa, who was busy writing the adventure in her notebook.

"Shame on you," Jack said, The Doctor nodded,

"The last thing I remember, back when I was mortal, I was facing three Daleks. Death by extermination. And then I came back to life. What happened?" The Doctor tensed and looked back at Alyssa Jack got the message

"I thought you sent them home." Jack said,

"She came back. Opened the heart of the Tardis and absorbed the time vortex itself."

"What does that mean, exactly?"

"No one's ever mean to have that power. If a Time Lord did that, he'd become a god. A vengeful god. But..." he trailed off before looking back at Alyssa "Everything she did was so human. She brought you back to life but she couldn't control it. She brought you back forever. That's something, I suppose. The final act of the Time War was life." He said, looking at Alyssa softly, Jack noticed why he wasn't saying any names. For Alyssa, it hadn't happened yet so it would create spoilers for her.

"Do you think she could change me back?"

"I took the power out of her." he mouthed "and I'm not allowing her to take that power back." to Jack who had gotten the message.

"I'm sorry about Rose," Jack said,

"Yeah."

"I went back to her estate, in the nineties, just once or twice. Watched her growing up. Never said hello. Timelines and all that."

"Do you want to die?" The Doctor asked,

"Oh, this one's a little stuck."

"Jack?"

"I thought I did. I don't know. But this lot. You see them out here surviving, and that's fantastic."

"You might be out there, somewhere"

"I could go meet myself."

"Well, the only man you're ever going to be happy with." The Doctor said, kinda mocking, Alyssa dug through her pockets and smiled when she found a ball. She threw it at the Doctor hard,

"Rude!" she yelled, The Doctor made a noise of pain and rubbed the back of his head causing Jack to laugh

"This new regeneration, it's kind of cheeky." Only talking to the Doctor. Jack finally finished with the couplings and rushed out of the room, and started flipping switches as Martha came running in The Doctor noticed her,

"ah, nearly there. The footprint, it's a gravity pulse. It stamps down, the rocket shoots up. Bit primitive. It'll take both of us to keep it stable." The Doctor said,

"Doctor, it's the Professor. He's got this watch. He's got a fob watch. It's the same as yours. Same writing on it, same everything." Martha said

"Don't be ridiculous." The Doctor said in disbelief,

"I asked him. He said he's had it his whole life." Martha said,

"So he's got the same watch." Jack yelled, Alyssa stood up and walked over

"Martha's right, Doctor Professor Yana has a fob watch. He's a timelord" Alyssa said, The Doctor looked at her in disbelief. "I should've told you earlier, but I was scared because somehow he knew me. Because Doctor, He's the Master." The Doctor then took off running after sending the rocket up and the others followed him as they ran back to Yana's lab but the door was closed,

"Professor! Professor, let me in! Let me in! Jack, get the door open now! Professor! Professor, where are you?! Professor! Professor, are you there? Please, I need to explain. Whatever you do, don't open that watch." The Doctor said pounding on the door "it's too late Doctor, he opened it." The Doctor looked at her before pounding on the door some more. "Open the door, please! I'm begging you, Professor. Please, listen to me. Just open the door, please."

"They're coming!" Martha shouted hearing Futurekind running down the hall.

"Professor" The Doctor shouted once more before a gun noise went off and Jack hit the control panel and the door opens and the four rush in, Doctor and Alyssa running forward and looking at the Master looked at Alyssa

"It can't be." he whispered, Before backing up into the Tardis and locking the door right before the Doctor put his key in making it impossible to open by the key and also by Sonic Screwdriver.

"I'm begging you. Everything's changed! It's only the three of us! We're the only ones left! Just let us in!" The Doctor yelled, Golden light erupted from the Tardis windows and Alyssa and the Doctor both new that he was regenerating.

"Now then, Doctor. Ooo, new voice. Hello, hello. Hello." He said testing he new voice before he continued "Anyway, why don't we stop and have a nice little chat while I tell you all my plans and you can work out a way to Stop me, I don't think."

"I'm asking you really properly. Just stop. Just think!" The Doctor yelled panicked trying to convince the Master to let them in.

"Use my name." The Master said,

"Master. I'm sorry."

"Tough!"

"I can't hold out much longer, Doctor!" Jack said as the Master began to start piloting the Tardis. The Doctor pulled out his Sonic screwdriver and activates it

"Oh, no you don't! End of the universe. Have fun. Bye, bye!" The Master said, as he piloted the Tardis away, Alyssa dug through her pockets and took out a small notebook smaller than her blue one and began punching in the first coordinates she sees because it was labeled the exact date she needed. She ran to the door and helped Jack and Martha keep the Futurekind out. The Doctor joined her and soniced her Vortex Manipulator making sure that when she pressed it she would end up in the right place and grabbed Jack's and soniced his as well before they all pushed it together and teleported away from the end of the Universe.
