020- [Video]

[missrosetyler]

[The video feed flickers on to reveal Rose's flat in distress. Her couch is turned upside down, pillow feathers are everywhere, the bookcase is on the floor with books littering the floor. The main door opens, showing Rose walking in with bags in hand. The mess immediately catches her attention and her bags fall to the floor. She ventures deeper into the living room unaware of the Boney watching her from another room. It growls and she stops turning toward its source. Her eyes go wide and she screams. Immediately she starts to back away as it advances.

She decides going for the door is her only choice as she turns her back against the advancing creature and bolts for the door, shutting it behind her. Her heart races and her feet don't stop moving, she spots two more down the hall as the feed dies.]

[ooc: open to action if you want to run into her.]

[Rose gets to her feet, breath still trying to catch up with her.]

An invasion. Those things are everywhere.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Panting heavily, looking a little startled.]

But...what were...I mean, I...oh dear me...

[He faints.]

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

...Doctor?

[She rushes over to him worried, knees hitting the floor as she tries to cradle his head.]

Are you okay? Come on, wake up. How about some tea, yeah?

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

Mm? What? What's going...

[Focuses on Rose.]

Pol...Rose! Oh, what happened?

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

You fainted.

[She looks down at him still concerned.]

Want some tea?

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Reaches for his face, frantically.]

Oh dear...did I?

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

No, no. You're still you. Here let me help you up.

[She offers her hand.]

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Allows himself to be helped up.]

Thank you. What are those things out there?

[Moves around the console to hit turn on the scanner and looks at the screen on the far wall.]

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

You sure, you don't want to sit down?

[She watches him before looking at the screen to see the Boney's surround the TARDIS.]

Not sure. Skeleton looking things. One of them was already in my flat.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

I'll be alright.

[Flinches as one of the Boneys flings itself at the doors.]

In your flat you say?

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

[She nods.]

Yeah. Caught me by complete surprise.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

Horrible looking creatures. How long do you think it was there?

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

Not sure. It must have been a while though cause everything's just a mess.

[She frowns and then wonders how his other self is doing.]

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Looks at her.]

Are you alright. You seem a bit pale.

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

[She looks over at him and forces a reassuring smile but even that can't hide her worry.]

Yeah. I'm just...It was just expected. Those things...

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

Did they hurt you?

[Goes up to her.]

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

No I don't think.

[Rose tries to think back.]

I mean, not sure. They were close.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

[Pays close attention to her face. Almost nose-to nose with her.]

You don't look alright, if you don't mind my saying.

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

[She stares at him.]

Just a bit shaken up. I could say the same thing for you.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

Perhaps.

[Looks around and sees the book discarded before picking it up.]

It's only that...oh no!

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

Doctor, what's wrong?

[She approaches him.]

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

I've lost my place.

[Flips through the book.]

Oh dear.

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

I'm sure you could get it back. I mean just think about the last part you read.

Re: Action;

[seconddoctor_cia]

Hmmmm...

[Looks at her again.]

Are you certain those things didn't touch you? You just seem a bit...drawn out.

Re: Action;

[missrosetyler]

I don't know.

[She frowns.]

It all sort of happened so fast. I don't feel any pain.

[And then she thinks maybe it couldn't hurt to check just in case.]

I suppose though better safe than sorry, yeah?
