Tardis…
"Apalapucia." The Doctor said, flicking switches on the TARDIS console.
"Can you repeat that?" Ren asked.
"Apalapucia." Jared said, leaning against the TARDIS console.
"Apalapu…"
"Chia." Nora said, smiling.
"Apalapucia." Jaune said, looking around the console room.
"Apalapucia." Jared said, smirking.
"Apalapucia. What a beautiful word." Amy said.
"Beautiful word, beautiful world. Apalapucia, voted number two planet in the top ten greatest destinations for the discerning intergalactic traveller." The Doctor said.
"Why couldn't we go to number one?" Rory asked.
"It's hideous. Everyone goes to number one. Planet of the coffee shops." The Doctor said, annoyed.
"Oh, I would have liked that!" Nora said, excitedly.
"No, we're not getting you cups of coffee." Ren said, crossing his arms.
"Which is why we're not taking Nora to coffee shops." The Doctor said, flicking levers on the TARDIS. "She has too much energy as is. Apalapucia. I give you sunsets, spires, soaring silver colonnades. I give you…"
The Doctor opens the Tardis door to reveal - a white space with a door.
"Doors." Jaune said, looking out the TARDIS door.
White space…
"Doors. Yes. I give you doors. But on the other side of those doors, I give you sunsets, spires, soaring silver colonnades." The Doctor said.
"Have you seen my phone?" Amy asked.
"And have you seen my phone?" Jared asked, next to Amy.
"Your phones?" The Doctor asked.
"Yeah." Amy said.
"Where are they?" Jared asked.
"Your mobile telephones? I bring the both of you to a paradise planet, two billion light years from Earth, and Pond, you want to update Twitter, and Jared, you want to update Snapchat." The Doctor said, annoyed.
"Sunsets, spires, soaring silver colonnades. It's a camera phone." Amy said, angrily.
"On the counter, by the DVDs." The Doctor said.
"Thank you." Amy said.
"Thanks, Spaceman. I really appreciate it." Jared said, entering the TARDIS with Amy.
"How do we get in?" Nora asked.
"I don't know. Push a button." Ren said.
There is a choice of two - Green Anchor and Red Waterfall. Nora presses the Green.
Green Anchor room…
"It's a white room." Ren said, entering the room.
Still stark white decor, with a glass table and three avante guarde chairs.
"Yeah." Jaune said.
"Okay, so rain check on the soaring silver colonnades." The Doctor said.
"Yeah. It's a magnifying glass." Rory said.
And it is in the middle of the table.
"Ooo, what's it doing there?" Nora asked.
Amy and Jared come out of the Tardis with their phones.
"Hey? Hey, it's locked." Amy said, nearby.
"Yeah, push the button." Rory said.
Of course, Amy presses the Red Waterfall button.
Red Waterfall room…
"Ugh. Where is Team JNR, the Doctor, and Rory the Roman?" Jared asked.
Identical to Green Anchor except there are no people here.
"I don't know. Rory?" Amy asked.
Green Anchor room…
"Come on, Jared, Amy." Jaune said, sadly.
Red Waterfall room…
"You have got to be kidding me." Jared said, leaning against the wall.
The door shuts.
"Great." Amy said, annoyed.
Green Anchor room…
Rory opens the door, "Where are they? Where on wherever we are is my wife and our best man?"
"I'm gonna press this." Nora said, pressing the green button on the magnifying glass.
Amy and Jared look into the glass in their room and the Doctor, Ren, and Nora sees them.
"Rory, Jaune, I think I've found them." The Doctor said.
"What do you mean you've found them? Whoa. No, but, they're not, they're not here." Rory said.
Red Waterfall room…
"We can see them, but they're not here." Jaune said, in the glass. "How is that possible?"
Green Anchor room…
"Where are we? In fact, where are you?" Amy asked, in the glass.
A white robot enters. It has a blank face, one red and one green button on its torso, and is holding up a hand.
"Whoa." Jaune said.
"Hands. Hello, hands. Robot with hands, Rory, Team JNR." The Doctor said.
"Welcome to the Twostreams facility. Will you be visiting long?" The handbot asked.
"Er, Doctor, something's happening." Amy said, in the glass. "Jared, do you know what's happening?"
"I think so." Jared said, in the glass.
The image in the glass starts to wiggle.
"Er, Amy, Jared? Stay calm. Stay still. Ah, time's gone wobbly. I hate it when it does that." The Doctor said.
"Will you be visiting long?" The handbot asked.
"Good question. Bit sinister. What's the answer to not get us killed?" Rory asked.
"It's okay, I've got you, you're fine." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Will you be visiting long?" The robot asked, nearby.
"Doctor? Team JNR? A little help, Doctor, Jaune, Ren, Nora." Rory said, in the glass.
"The hell have you been?" Jared asked.
Green Anchor room…
"What do I tell it?" Rory asked, looking at the handbot.
"Amy and I have been here for a fucking week!" Jared said, in the glass.
Red Waterfall room…
"A week?" The Doctor asked, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"A week? I'm so sorry. Ah-ha. Same room, different times. Two different timestreams running parallel but at different speeds. Amy, Jared, the both of you are in a faster timestream." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Doctor, it's going again." Amy said.
Green Anchor room...
"Doctor!" Rory said. "Team JNR!"
"Amy!" The Doctor said. "Jared!"
"Doctor!" Amy and Jared said, in the glass.
Red Waterfall room…
"Come on. Gotcha. There. Stabilised, settled, shush." The Doctor said, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"Why has this got hands?" Rory asked.
"Organic skin. Ultimate universal interface, grown and grafted, not born. I mean, it's actually seeing with its fingers, scanning the room. But why not just give it eyes?" The Doctor asked.
"Will you be visiting long?" The handbot asked.
"As long as it takes." Jaune said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Amy, Jared, what exactly did you do?" Ren asked, in the glass.
"We just, we came in…" Jared said.
Green Anchor room…
"And I pressed the door button." Amy said, in the glass.
"Oh." Jaune said, sadly.
Red Waterfall room…
"Amy, Jared, there were two buttons. The green anchor and the red waterfall." Ren said, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"Which one did you push?" Rory asked.
"I pushed the red waterfall." Amy said, in the glass.
"Great." Jaune said, sadly.
White space…
Rory goes outside, lets the door close and presses Red Waterfall. The door opens on an empty room.
"Amy? Jared?" Rory asked, stepping back, the door closes and he presses Green Anchor.
Green Anchor room…
"I pressed Red Waterfall, and they weren't there." Rory said.
"Okay, so you can't follow them directly." Ren said.
"That didn't surprise me." Nora said, her hand on her hip.
"You know, it's never simple. Did you hear that, Handbot? She pressed the wrong button, that's all. We're aliens, we didn't know." The Doctor said.
"Statement rejected. Apalapucia is under planet-wide quarantine. This is a kindness facility for those infected with Chen Seven." The handbot said.
The Doctor covers his mouth and nose with his coat lapel, "What?"
"What's Chen Seven?" Nora asked. "Is it a coffee flavor?"
"The one day plague." The Doctor said.
"What? You get that plague for a day?" Jaune asked.
"No, you get it, and you die in a day."
"There are forty thousand residents in the Twostreams Facility. Please remain in the sterile areas. Visiting hours are now." The handbot said, beaming itself away.
"Sterile area. I'm safe." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Hey, Spaceman! What about us?" Jared asked. "I only remembered where we were going. Not the bits in between. Is Chen Seven dangerous?"
Green Anchor room…
"Chen Seven only affects two-hearted races like Apalapucians." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall room…
"And Time Lords." Rory said, in the glass.
"Yeah, like me. Walk into that facility, I'm dead in a day." The Doctor said, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"Time moves faster on Amy and Jared's side of the glass." Ren said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Jared, you said you and Amu had been here a week. What did the both of you eat?" The Doctor asked, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"Nothing. We weren't hungry." Amy said, in the glass.
Red Waterfall room…
"No, because that Red Waterfall time is compressed. That's the point. The Time Glass syncs up the…" The Doctor said, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"...two timestreams for visits. You could be in here for a day, and watch them live out their entire lives." The Doctor said.
"And watch them grow old in front of your eyes?" Rory asked.
Red Waterfall room…
"That's horrible." Rory said, in the glass.
Green Anchor room…
"No, Rory, it's kind. You've got a choice. Sit by their…" The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall room…
"Bedside for twenty four hours and watch them die, or sit in here for twenty four hours and watch them live. Which would you choose?" The Doctor asked, in the glass.
The Doctor pulls the Time Glass out of the table.
"Damn it, Spaceman." Jared said, crossing his arms.
Amy and Jared's one vanishes.
"Doctor? Doctor, no, don't leave us." Amy said, sadly.
Green Anchor room…
"I'm here, Amy, Jared. I'm right here." The Doctor said.
"Where are you? Are we looking at you?" Amy asked, in the glass.
"Turn left just a fraction. Bit more. Stop. That's it.�� The Doctor said.
"Eye to eye?" Amy asked, in the glass.
"I like this." Jared said, in the glass. "But at the same time, I hate it."
"Eye to eye to eye to eye to eye to eye to eye." The Doctor said.
"Hello." Rory said.
"Hey." Ren said.
"Hello." Jaune said.
"Aww. The both of you are there." Nora said, annoyed.
"Amy, Jared, I'm taking the Time Glass back to the Tardis. Like satnav, I'll use it to get a lock, then smash through using the Tardis to get the both of you out. Until then, the two of you are together. Jared, I hope you know this adventure well enough." The Doctor said, as he sonicks the glass.
"Er, what are you doing?" Rory asked.
"Locking it on to Amy and Jared. Small act of vandalism. No one'll mind." The Doctor said, while an alarm sounds. "Ah, that'll be the small act of vandalism alarm. Amy, Jared, I need you two to go into the facility just for a bit. Find somewhere safe and leave me a sign. Remember, the both of you are immune to Chen Seven, but don't let them give you anything. They don't know you're alien. Their kindness will kill you. Now go."
Jared presses a button labelled Check In.
"Rory, I love you." Amy said, in the glass.
"Team JNR. We've spent a lot of time walking from Patch to Haven Academy together with Ruby. The five of us saved villages from Grimm." Jared said, smirking. "Now save us. Go on."
Through the check-in door, Amy and Jared are sprayed with a gas.
Tardis…
"This is locked onto Amy and Jared permanently. Play the signal into the console, the Tardis'll follow it. Now then, I know you're in here." The Doctor said, rummaging through a tool box. "Er, er, ha ha! How do I look?"
The Doctor has found a pair of thick rimmed glasses.
"Ridiculous." Rory said.
"Glasses are cool, see?" The Doctor asked, putting them on Rory. "Oh, yes. Hello, handsome man."
A pair of augmented reality headset appeared on Jaune's head.
"Oh, hello." Rory said.
"Hi." Jaune said.
"Hello, Rory-cam." The Doctor said, happily. "And hello Jaune-cam."
"Huh?" Rory asked.
"What?" Jaune asked.
The image of the Doctor and the image of Ren and Nora are on the Time Glass with two different perspectives.
"Oh, the three of you can see what we see." Rory said.
"We're breaking into Twostreams. Now, I can't go in there." The Doctor said. "The Chen Seven'll kill me, no regeneration. You will be my eyes and ears."
"Rory-cam. And Jaune-cam. Rescue Amy and Jared. Got it."
"We're coming too." Ren said.
"You're not leaving us in here." Nora said, smiling.
"That's the spirit. Now, smashing through a timewall could get a bit hairy." The Doctor said.
"Is it safe?" Rory asked.
"Don't know. Never tried. Best hold onto something." The Doctor said.
(Jared's POV)
Check in area…
"Okay, right, this place is empty." I said, taking out my pendant and I looked down at it, "Aqours, set up."
I'm now wearing my suit of armor and it's in it's more mobile form. The check in area is an area that is massive, white and deserted.
"What the?" Amy asked.
We are grabbed by a beam of light from a panel in the ceiling. It has a pleasant female voice.
"Welcome to the Twostreams Facility." The interface said.
"Er, who are you and why can't we see you?" Amy asked.
"I am the Interface between the two of you and the systems of the Twostreams Facility. I will be your guide, your teacher, your friend."
An image of a woman appears at a check in desk.
"Welcome to Twostreams. What is your name, please?" The check in girl asked.
"Amy. Amy Pond." Amy said.
"Jared. Jared Shay." I said, grabbing Amy's hand.
"Welcome, Amy Pond, Jare Shay. I see you're travelling together. As residents, the two of you will now have access to all of the entertainment zones inside. For a taste of adventure, why not try the mountain zone, and explore Apalapucia's famous Glasmir Mountains. Or try our roller-coaster zone, authentically modelled on the famous Warpspeed Death Ride at Disneyland, Clom. All that you could wish for and more is through the Departure Gate, provided for you with kindness." The check in girl said.
Arrivals area…
"Unexpected visitors. Welcome. Please seek assistance." The interface said.
A Handbot is up ahead.
"Hello? Hey. Oi, wait." Amy said, angrily.
The Handbot turns and scans Amy and I, "You are carrying unregistered bacteria. Please let me help you."
"No, stop! We're not from this world. Your medicine will kill us." I said, grabbing Amy's hand.
"Statement rejected. Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
"Fusion Mode engaged. Ember Gungnir is desired." Aqours said, as the yellow and orange gauntlets appeared on my wrist.
"Amy, I'll protect you." I said, looking over at Amy. "I promise I will. As long as we're here."
Amy and I duck and hide.
"No, no, please, I hate needles." Amy said, worried.
"Secondary delivery system engaged." The handbot said, while it's head opened to reveal a needle gun. It misses its targets and more Handbots beam in. "Unauthorised infection on check-in, version two two three."
Amy and I jump over a counter and get into the service area.
Service corridor…
"Unauthorised residents detected." The interface said.
Amy and I hide from a Handbot.
"Come on." I said, grabbing Amy's hand. "This is a bit weird."
"This is a kindness. Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
"Tell me about it. I'm not part of your harem." Amy said, looking at me. "I already have Rory."
And the chase is on.
"Unauthorised residents detected. Unauthorised residents detected." The interface said.
"No. No, no." Amy said.
"This is a kindness. Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness. This is a kindness. Do not be alarmed." The handbot said.
I pulled at a mesh screen around a vent with my gauntlets, "Come on, Amy. In here!"
Amy and I get inside.
"Are you sure this is gonna work?" Amy asked.
"No residents detected. No residents detected." The handbot said.
"They didn't see us. They didn't see us." Amy said, looking at me. "Wow. Who knew your foreknowledge could come in handy?"
(Open POV)
Tardis…
"Red Waterfall. We made it." Jaune said.
"Good old us." The Doctor said.
Rory and Team JNR exited the console room.
Red Waterfall corridor…
"How do we know that we're in the same Red Waterfall as Amy and Jared?" Ren asked. "We could be in another person's timestream."
Tardis…
"Focus on the positive." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall corridor…
Rory looks at a topless Greek-style statue of a lady.
"We locked onto Amy and Jared's timestream." The Doctor said, over the comms.
"Hey! Eyes front, soldier." Nora said, angrily.
"Right, yes. Sorry." Rory said.
Tardis…
"Apalapucians are the great cultural scavengers, Rory, Team JNR. This gallery's a scrapbook of their favourite places." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall corridor…
Mona Lisa on a pedestal.
"Bit of Earth, bit of alien, bit of whatever the hell that is." Rory said.
(Jared's POV)
Gate Room…
"Okay, this is definitely Doctor Strange worthy." I said, looking at several freestanding portals and a central control column. "The Rotunda of Gateways."
"Doctor Strange? What's what?" Amy asked, looking at me. "Interface?"
"I am here, Amy Pond, Jared Shay." The interface said.
"Quiet. Please. Can you turn that light off? Thanks." I said, smiling.
"So we're, what is this? How does it work?" Amy asked.
"This is the Gate. From here you may depart to any of Twostreams' entertainment zones." The interface said while Amy and I press buttons on the central column. "Cinema. Aquarium. Garden."
"Garden?" Amy asked.
"Yeah. Why not?" I asked, grabbing Amy's hand.
"Garden." The interface said.
The Iconian Portal flickers with light, then Amy and I run through.
Garden…
"Wow…" I said, in awe. "Just wow. Not as beautiful as Beacon Academy, Mistral, Argus, or Atlas."
Amy and I run onto a terrace.
"That is beautiful. I mean, freaky hedges." Amy said.
"What is this place? Where are we?" I asked.
"The perfect replica of a Shill Governor's Mansion on Shallanna." The interface said.
"You really could spend a lifetime in here. Not that we're going to. Interface?" Amy asked.
"Amy Pond?"
"Listen, we need somewhere safe to hide and wait for our friends."
"So, where in Twostreams is safe?" I asked.
"Twostreams is a safe, nurturing environment." The interface said.
"Argh. You're not as helpful as Yui or Reinforce Zwei." I said, scoffing. "Or someone like Elfnein or Kirito. Well, you know what I mean. Where can we go so the Handbots won't find us?"
"Okay. Before, we were stood by a sort of vent, and there was light and smoke, and the Handbots couldn't see us. Why not? Okay, I will put it another way. What were those vent thingies?" Amy asked.
"The vents channel the exhaust fumes from the Temporal Engines that hold the multiple timestreams in place." The interface said.
"And the Temporal Engines mess with the Handbots' sensors. So, where's the Temporal Engines?" I asked, grabbing Amy's hand.
"Temporal Engines held within." The interface said, showing Amy and I an image of the entrance to the Temporal Engines, by the Arrivals lounge.
"Okay." Amy said, looking at me. "Now we know where to go."
"Yup." I said, squeezing Amy's hand.
Two Handbots beam in.
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
I sent out electric Dust bullets out of my gauntlets towards the handbots. They short out.
"Ha! Don't like that, do you?" Amy asked. "What's the other method?"
"You put the handbots' hands together. They short out." I said, happily.
Amy and I find the door and go inside.
Temporal Engine room…
"Temporal engines. Somewhere to hide." Amy said.
Amy goes back to the door and writes on it with her lipstick - Doctor We're waiting - and puts an arrow to the door handle. Aqours popped out a piece of metal out of my suit, it revealed itself to be a little video camera. There's a red flashing light there, which means it's recording. I placed the camera on the door.
"Doctor. We're waiting for you." I said, happily. "Don't take too long. Bringing Team JNR with you. Please. I don't know if this recording will save or not."
(Open POV)
Tardis…
"Where is everyone?" Jaune asked, nearby.
"Right, Rory, switch the Time Glass on and sonic it. And then pass the sonic to Ren, so he can sonic the Augma Jaune is wearing." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall corridor…
"I'm sending a command signal to the screwdriver. Amy and Jared are here somewhere, if I can just get a lock on them." The Doctor said, nearby.
Tardis…
"I wonder what happens if we mix the filters?" The Doctor asked, while lots of blurry people appeared in the Time Glass, and via Rory-cam and the Augma on a screen in the Tardis. "Oh, there they are. Forty thousand time streams overlapping. Red Waterfall isn't one time stream, it's thousands."
Red Waterfall corridor…
"Are they happy?" Ren asked. "Being stuck in here."
"Oh, Ren." The Doctor said, over the Augma.
Tardis…
"Trust you to think of that." The Doctor said.
Red Waterfall corridor…
"I think they're happy to be alive. Better than the alternative." The Doctor said, over the Augma.
Rory lowers the Time Glass and he and Team JNR are confronted by a red haired female Samurai warrior and a black haired knight. He falls backwards.
"We come in peace. Peace, peace, peace, peace." Rory said.
"We waited." The knight said.
"Sorry, what?" Rory asked.
"We waited for you. We waited for you." The warrior said.
The warrior and the knight raise their helmets.
"Jared…" Jaune said, sadly.
They are an older Amy and Jared.
"Amy." Rory said.
Tardis…
"Doctor, what happened?" Nora asked, over the speaker.
"Er…" The Doctor said, at a loss for words.
Red Waterfall corridor…
"Amy." Rory said, looking between Amy and Jared. "Jared."
"I think the timestream lock might be a bit wobbly." The Doctor said, over the Augma.
Jared raises his spear.
"No, please. Please." Rory said.
"Duck." Jared said, and his spear goes straight through a Handbot's head.
"Handbots carry a black box in case they go offline. I've changed the cause of termination from hostile to accidental." Amy said.
Tardis…
"Easy to re-programme. Used my sonic probe." Amy said, on screen.
Red Waterfall corridor…
"Jared, what happened to you?" Jaune asked.
"A lot." Jared said, holding his spear.
"Why?" Rory asked.
"Because Jared and I have survived this long by making the Handbots think we don't exist." Amy said.
Tardis…
"Don't touch the hands." Jared said, on screen. "Seriously don't."
Red Waterfall corridor…
"There's anaesthetic transfer on the skin. If they touch you, you go to sleep." Amy said.
"But the two of you are still here?" Ren asked.
"You didn't save us." Jared said, looking at Ren.
"But, this is the saving. This is the us saving the both of you. The Doctor just got the timing a bit out." Rory said, angrily.
"Sorry." The Doctor said, silently.
"Jared and I have been together for a long, long time. We've had decades to think nice thoughts about him. Got a bit harder to stay charitable once we entered decade four." Amy said.
"It was hard to say the least." Jared said, sadly. "I had no one to be there for me. I settled down for once with Amy. And I despised every second of it."
"Forty years? Together?" Rory asked.
"Thirty six years, thanks." Amy said, annoyed.
"No. Right. I mean, you look great. Really, really."
"Eyes front, soldier."
"Still can't win then."
"Actually, you can win, Rory. Amy and I, we hate him." Jared said, holding his spear. "We hate the Doctor."
"Jared isn't wrong. We hate him more than we've ever hated anyone…" Amy said.
Tardis…
"...in our lives, and you can hear every word of this through those ridiculous glasses and the pair of Augma, can't you, Raggedy Man?" Amy asked, on screen.
"Er, yes. Putting the speaker phone on." The Doctor said.
"You told us to wait, and we did." Amy said, on the scanner.
"I did this before. Being hopeful. And wanting a miracle. That was in an aborted timeline. Not having adventures. It involved me and Rani Chandra. Worst mistake of my life. I assumed nothing could top that. But this totally tops it. This is another lifetime for me. And it's a lifetime for Amy." Jared said, on the scanner.
"Amy…" The Doctor said. "Jared…"
"You've got nothing to say to us." Amy said, on the scanner.
"Amy, Jared, behind you."
Red Waterfall corridor…
Two more Handbots.
Amy throws her katana to Rory and touches the Handbots hands together, "Feedback. Knocks them out."
Tardis…
"Jared told me that trick on our first day." Amy said, on the scanner.
Arrivals area…
"Okay, so we just take the Tardis back to the right time stream, right?" Nora asked.
Tardis…
"We can stop any of this happening." Nora said, nearby.
Arrivals area…
"We locked on to a timestream, Nora. This is it." The Doctor said, over the Augma.
"This is so wrong." Jaune said.
"What did you expect? I got old with Amy, Jaune." Jared said, crossing his arms.
"Hey, I don't care that you got old. I care that we didn't grow old together. Amy, come on, please." Rory said, grabbing Amy's hand.
"Don't touch me. And don't touch Jared. Don't do that." Amy said.
"It's like you're not even her."
"Thirty six years, three months, four days of solitary confinement. This facility was built to give people the chance to live."
Tardis…
"Amy and I walked in here. And we died, we both died. Well, Doctor? Do you have anything to say?" Jared asked, on the scanner.
"Where did you get a sonic screwdriver?" The Doctor asked. "And where did you get the spear?"
"I made it. And it's a sonic probe." Amy said, on the scanner.
Arrivals area…
The lipstick has all but disappeared from the door now. And the small camera is still on the door, but it hasn't been flashing for ages.
"Amy, you made a sonic screwdriver?" Ren asked. "And Jared, you use a spear?"
"It's a sonic probe." Jared said, rolling his eyes. "Weren't you listening?"
Amy and Jared's lair…
Rory and Team JNR follows Amy and Jared into the place they have made their home. There is a Handbot with a smiling face drawn on its head and hooks instead of hands.
"Oh." Rory said.
��Don't worry about him. Sit down, Rory, Team JNR." Amy said.
The Handbot sits, as does Rory and Team JNR.
"You named him after me?" Rory asked.
"Needed a bit of company. That wasn't Jared." Amy said.
"So he's like your pet? Is it safe?" Rory asked.
"Yui, how's things going out there?" Jared asked, wearing an Augma.
"Everything is safe." Yui said, her voice coming out of Jared's Augma.
"Yui?" Jaune asked.
"How did she…" Nora said.
"How long have you been talking to her?" Ren asked.
"The moment Aqours stopped working. Which was fifteen years ago." Jared said, scoffing. "Like, I never needed that thing. Talk about dead weight." Amy gets the remains of her lipstick from a box and looks at it. "And Rory. That handbot. It's safe. Amy disarmed it years ago."
"How? Oh, you disarmed it." Rory said, looking at the robot.
"Oh, don't get sentimental, it's just a robot. You'd have done the same." Amy said, angrily.
Tardis…
"I don't know that I would have." The Doctor said.
"And there he is. A God more powerful than the Law of Cycles." Jared said, on the scanner. "Where you don't need an Armed Gear to do anything. Useless bitch."
"And you have to survive, because no one's going to come for you. Number one lesson." Amy said, on the scanner.
Amy and Jared's lair…
"Well, you taught us that." Jared said, looking away.
"Is that really all I taught the both of you?" The Doctor asked, his voice coming out of Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"Don't you lecture us, blue-box man flying through time and space on whimsy. All we've got, all we've had for thirty six years, is cold, hard reality." Amy said, on the scanner.
Amy and Jared's lair…
"So no, neither of us have sonic screwdrivers because we're not off on a romp." Amy said.
"And the device Amy has. It's a sonic probe. The life we shared together. The one we have together here. It's fucking hell!" Jared said, leaning against the wall.
Tardis…
"Amy Pond, Jared Shay, I am going to put this right. The both of you said you learned from an…" The Doctor said.
Amy's lair…
"Interface. Can I speak with it?" The Doctor asked, his voice out of Jared's Augma.
"Doesn't work in here." Amy said.
"It's two twenty three in the afternoon." Yui said, coming into view of the universal interface of Jared's Augma. "The garden is clear. There are no handbots."
"Thanks, Yui." Jared said, looking between Team JNR and Rory. "Okay, are you four staying or coming?"
"Sorry, me? No, I'm coming with the both of you." Rory said.
"I'm coming too." Jaune said.
"We're not leaving without you." Ren said.
"We've been through a lot together." Nora said.
"Then try not to get killed. Or do. Whatever." Amy said, walking away with Jared.
Garden…
"When we first came here, we had to trick the Interface into giving us the information." Amy said.
"Yui swooped in a few weeks later and gave us steps as to how to reprogram it." Jared said, holding his spear. "That daughter of Kirito and Asuna pops in every couple of months to make sure that we're safe and sound."
"The Interface will now tell us anything except how to escape."
"Yui helped you and Jared hack it? That's genius." Rory said, in awe.
"It is a bit clever." Ren said, happily.
"What else is new?" Nora asked.
"Yeah." Jaune said, smiling.
"Sorry to interrupt that beautiful moment, but temporal engines…" The Doctor said, over Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"...like that have a regulator valve. Has to be kept at a distance from the main reactor or there'd be feedback. Interface, where's the regulator?" The Doctor asked.
"The regulator valve is held within." The interface said.
Showing a diagram of the location.
"Oh. Very, very ah." The Doctor said.
Garden…
"Interface, I need to run through some technical specifications." The Doctor said, his voice over Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"Rory, give me to Amy and Jared a minute." The Doctor said.
Garden…
"Here you go." Rory said, handing over the glasses to Amy and she slowly puts them on.
"They look ridiculous." Amy said, angrily.
"That's what I told him. Still, anything beats a fez, eh?"
The Ponds laugh briefly together.
"So, what did you do while you were here?" Jaune asked, walking up to Jared.
"Trying to stay alive." Jared said, looking at Jared. "It was do or die."
"Right."
"There's still time, Amy, Jared. There's still time to fix everything." The Doctor said, over Jared's Augma.
Rory goes walking along the terrace until he comes to the portal, "How can you have a door without a wall?"
A Handbot is approaching as Rory walks into the invisible wall by the portal.
"Oh. Holographic wallpaper? Oh, sorry. Argh." Rory said.
The Handbot touches Rory's neck and he falls backwards.
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
It is about to fire its needle gun at Rory when Amy chops its head off.
"Oh." Rory said.
"I defeated more of these, than Grimm these days." Jared said, looking at Team JNR.
"So, is there really no Grimm?" Nora asked.
"No."
"What is that spear?" Ren asked, looking down at Jared's weapon.
"I don't know, really." Jared said, sadly.
"It looks like Pyrrha's." Jaune said. "Why are you using it?"
"Says the one who had Pyrrha all over him for a while."
"You have, haven't you?" Rory asked.
"Woman with a sword. Don't push it." Amy said, annoyed.
Tardis…
"Okay. So, here's the plan." The Doctor said.
Garden…
"Time is always a bit wibbly-wobbly, but in Twostreams it's extra wobbly." The Doctor said, over Jared's Augma.
Amy puts the glasses back on Rory.
Tardis…
"I've worked out how to hijack the Temporal Engines and use them to fold two points of Amy and Jared's timeline together. We're bringing them out of the then and into the now. Amy, Jared, I just need to borrow both of your brains a minute. It won't hurt, probably. Almost probably and then…" The Doctor said.
Garden…
"Amy Pond, Jared Shay, I'm going to save both of you." The Doctor said, over Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"No." Jared said, on screen. "No way. I'm so against it."
Garden…
"Time's up. Handbots coming." Amy said, walking away with Jared.
Arrivals area…
"Amy, Jared, the two of you have got to help us help you. I need one of you to think back…" The Doctor said, his voice over Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"Thirty six years ago. Amy? Jared? Amy! Jared!" The Doctor said, angrily.
Arrivals area…
Amy and Jared go back to the Temporal Engines entrance and shut the door in Rory and Team JNR's face.
Rory uses the Time Glass to read the faded message, "You told them to leave us a sign."
Tardis…
"And they did. And they waited." Rory said, over the speaker.
"And that's not all." Jaune said, over the speaker.
"Doctor. We're waiting for you. Don't take too long. Bringing Team JNR with you. Please. I don't know if this recording will save or not." Jared said, on screen.
"It was a video recording." Ren said, his voice over the speaker. "A recording from 36 years ago. A small video camera was on the door."
"He really did want us to save him." Nora said, over the speaker.
Temporal Engine room…
"Jared, why don't you want to help yourself?" Jaune asked.
"He wants to rescue me from thirty six years ago, which means I'll cease to exist. Everything I've seen and done with Amy disappears." Jared said, sadly.
"Isn't that good?" Ren asked.
"No, I'll die. Another me will take my place. A me who was never trapped here in the first place, a me that will grow old stopping Salem with Team RWBY and JNR, and he in thirty six years, won't be me."
"But you and Jared will die in here!" Rory said, angrily.
"Not if you take us with you." Amy said.
Tardis…
"You came all this way to rescue us, so rescue us." Jared said, on screen.
Temporal Engine room…
"Leave them and take the both of you?" Rory asked.
Tardis…
"We could take this Amy and Jared with us, easy, but if we do, our Amy and Jared have to wait thirty six years to be rescued." The Doctor said.
Temporal Engine room…
"So I have to choose. Which wife and best man do I want?" Rory asked.
"They are us. We're both us." Amy said, grabbing Jared's hand.
"You and Jared being here is wrong. For a single day, an hour, let alone a lifetime. Amy, I swore to protect you. Like Jared has. I promised." Rory said.
Tardis...
"Rory…" The Doctor said.
Temporal Engine room…
"This is your fault." Rory said.
Tardis…
"I'm so sorry, but, Rory…" The Doctor said, sadly.
Temporal Engine room…
"No, this is your fault! You should look in a history book once in a while, see if there's an outbreak of…" Rory said.
Tardis…
"...plague or not." Rory said, over the speaker.
"That is not how I travel." The Doctor said.
Temporal Engine room…
"Then I do not want to travel with you!" Rory said, taking off the glasses and throws them away.
In the Tardis, the Doctor can hear younger Amy and Jared crying.
"Rory, is the Time Glass still on? If the link's still active, I think I can hear Amy and Jared. Our Amy and Jared." The Doctor said, over Jared's Augma.
"That's crying…" Ren said.
It is.
"Where's it coming from?" Nora asked.
Rory looks through it to see younger Amy and Jared crying into each other's chests nearby.
"Over there." Jaune said, frowning.
"Oh, Amy, Jared." Rory said, letting out a sigh.
Amy and Jared's lair…
"Look me in the face and say you won't help them." Rory said.
"I will not help her." Amy said.
"And I won't help him." Jared said, crossing his arms. "Even if this is the second time around for me."
"Okay, okay. Look me in the face and say it now." Rory said, holding up the Time Glass so that Amy and Jared can see their weeping younger selves.
"Rory? Rory, is that you?" Amy asked, in the glass.
"Is that Team JNR?" Jared asked, in the glass.
Rory sonicks the Time Glass so that it appears in the past.
Past Temporal Engine room…
"Rory, where are you with Team JNR?" Amy asked.
"Same place as the both of you, and a bit ahead." Rory said, nearby.
Amy and Jared's lair...
"I remember this." Older Amy said.
"So do I." Older Jared said.
"But who're they? There's no one else here but...us?" Amy asked, in the glass.
"That's me…" Jared said, in the glass. "And Amy…"
Rory the Handbot holds the glasses out to Rory with his hook.
Past Temporal Engine room…
"Why are we still here?" Amy asked.
Amy and Jared's lair…
"Because they leave you. Because they get in their Tardis and they fly away." Older Jared said.
Past Temporal Engine room…
"Rory wouldn't leave Amy. And Team RWBY, Team JNR, and Symphogear wouldn't either. Neither would the SAO survivors. Not ever." Jared said, smiling. "Something must have stopped them."
Amy and Jared's lair…
"The two of you did. Or rather, the old versions of the both of you." Older Amy said.
Past Temporal Engine room…
"The us version of the both of us." Older Amy said, in the glass.
"We refuse to help them. We won't let them save ourselves." Older Jared said, in the glass. "I changed my mind once with Rani Chandra. I won't let that happen again."
"Why?" Jared asked. "Why refuse to change time? We change time all the time."
Amy and Jared's lair…
"If the both of you escape, then we were never trapped here. The last thirty six years of our lives rewrite, and we cease to exist. That's why old us refused to help then. That's why we're refusing to help now. And that's why you'll refuse to help when it's your turn. And nothing you can say will change that." Older Amy said.
Past Temporal Engine room…
"Okay, do you still have Aqours on you?" Jared asked.
"Yeah. Why?" Older Jared asked, through the glass.
Amy and Jared's lair…
"What are you planning?" Older Jared asked.
"Let Amy have her me time. We can have ours." Jared said, through the glass.
Both versions of Jared closed their eyes.
"Link Start." Jared and Older Jared said, at the same time.
Kirito and Asuna's home...
"Why here?" Older Jared asked.
"This is the only place in the universe that feels like home. Next to Team RWBY's dorm room in Beacon Academy." Jared said, happily.
"I forgot how much I missed hanging out here."
"Why don't you?"
"I still do."
"Wait. What? How?"
"Yui linked me up with this place." Older Jared said.
"When?" Jared asked.
"A while ago. I don't want to do this. To change time."
"Well, you're me, and I'm you. We changed our future once with Rani. So we can have adventures again."
"So, we're actually gonna try and stop Salem. Knowing we can't kill her."
"Yup. I want us to have adventures again. With everyone. Including Team RWBY and JNR. We did reunite with Penny." Jared said, smiling.
"Penny Polendina was most of our guilt after all. Let's do this." Older Jared said.
Both versions of Jared loaded up the menu and logged off of ALFheim Online.
"Thanks." Jared said, smiling.
Temporal Engine room…
Rory and Team JNR have been waiting outside all this time.
"We are going to pull time apart for all of you." Older Amy said, kissing Rory.
"I changed my destiny once. I can do it again." Older Jared said, holding his spear. "And this will be Amy's first go at it."
Rory the Handbot discreetly turns its back.
Tardis…
"Okay, Doctor, Twostreams is back on air. Right, okay, so this is big news." Older Amy said, in the glass.
Temporal Engine room…
"This is temporal earthquake time." Older Amy said.
"We are now officially changing our own future." Older Jared said, happily. "Which I'm glad for, to be honest."
"Hold on to your spectacles."
"In our past, we saw our future selves refuse to help you. We're now changing that future and…"
Tardis…
"...agreeing. Every law of time says that shouldn't be possible." Older Jared said, in the glass.
"Yes, except sometimes knowing your own future's what enables you to change it. Especially if you're bloody minded, contradictory…" The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"...and completely unpredictable." The Doctor said, his voice over Older Jared's Augma.
"So basically, if you're Amy and Jared, then?" Rory asked.
"Yes, if anyone could defeat pre-destiny…"
Tardis…
"It's your wife and your best man." The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"It's not about what we're doing, but who we're doing it for. I'm trusting you to watch my back, Rory." Older Amy said.
"Always. You and me, always." Rory said.
"Team JNR, I'm trusting you three to watch my back." Older Jared said. "Like you did when we were heading to Haven Academy."
"You did keep your promise." Jaune said. "When we reunited at Argus. So we'll watch your back."
"We won't let anything happen to you." Ren said.
"Just like how we used to do it." Nora said, happily.
"Because here's the deal. You take us, too. In the Tardis. Us too." Older Amy said.
"But that means that there'll be two of you and two of Jared." Rory said.
Tardis…
"Permanently. Forever." Rory said, on screen.
"Yup. That way the four of us get to live." Older Jared said, on screen.
Arrivals area…
"Two Amys and two Jareds together. Can that work?" Rory asked.
"I don't know." The Doctor said, over Older Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"It's your marriage and Jared ships you two." The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"Doctor. Can we save the four of them?" Jaune asked.
Tardis…
"Perhaps. Maybe, if I shunted the reality compensators on the Tardis, re-calibrated the Doomsday bumpers and jettisoned the karaoke bar Symphogear use to practice their singing, yes. Maybe. Yes. It could do it. The Tardis could sustain the paradox." The Doctor said, smiling.
Arrivals area…
"Right. Amy and Amy." Rory said, while young Amy and young Jared are there, seen through the Time Glass. "The wife and the wife. Jared and Jared. The fanboy and the fanboy. Right. Right."
Tardis…
"Okay. Amy, Past Amy and Jared, stand by the door. Future Amy and Jared, you too." The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"Future Amy, can I borrow your sonic scr…" The Doctor said, over Older Jared's Augma.
Tardis…
"...probe." The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"It's a screwdriver." Older Amy said, annoyed.
"Rory, sonic it. Double our power. No, wait, Future Jared, what are you wearing?" The Doctor asked, over Jared's Augma.
"It's Aqours." Future Jared said, pressing a button on his Apple Watch to reveal his super suit underneath.
Future Jared's spear is actually Juliet's Rose underneath.
"Okay, this works. We can quadruple our power. Amy and Jared Now, you're our link to Amy and Jared Then."
Tardis...
"We need to get a signal through, one from two versions of Amy and another from the two versions of Jared, and that signal…" The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"...will be a thought." The Doctor said, his voice coming out of Older Jared's super suit.
Tardis…
"Amy and Jared Now and Amy and Jared Then, share a thought. Something so…" The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"Powerful that it can rip through time. Rory…" The Doctor said, his voice coming out of Older Jared's super suit.
Tardis…
"...sonic the plinth front. Inside you, Jaune, and Ren will find…" The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"...three levers and a jumble of wiring." The Doctor said, his voice coming out of Older Jared's super suit.
Tardis…
"That's the regulator valve. After we re-route it, you have ten minutes to get back to the Tardis." The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"Okay." Jaune said, removing some wires with Rory and Ren.
Tardis…
"Pull out the red and green receptors. Re-route the blue into the red and…" The Doctor said.
Arrivals area…
"...the green into blue. Leave the red loose and on no account…" The Doctor said, his voice over Older Jared's super suit.
Tardis…
"Touch anything yellow. Come on, Rory, Jaune. It's hardly rocket science. It's just…" The Doctor said, annoyed.
Arrivals area…
"...quantum physics." The Doctor said, his voice over Older Jared's super suit.
"Okay. Blue into red and then green…" Jaune said, rearranging the wires with Ren and Rory.
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Now, the levers."
Tardis…
"Nora, this is for you. Throw them in order." The Doctor said. "The colors they rearranged."
Arrivals area…
"And Amys and Jareds, start thinking the most important thought you have ever had." The Doctor said, his voice over Older Jared's super suit.
Tardis….
"Hold it in your head and do not let it go. Lever one." The Doctor said.
Jared's memory...
"Penny!" Ruby and Jared said, at the same time.
"Darling, why don't you say hello to your friends?" Pietro asked.
Penny turns to look in the direction her father's voice came from. Upon seeing Ruby and Jared, she gasps and her eyes shine with joy. Ruby and Jared smile and the both of them put their weapons away.
Penny leans forward a little, "Sal…"
"Huh?" Ruby asked, confused.
"What's going on?" Jared asked.
Penny lowers to one knee as a high-pitched charging noise is heard, "U…"
"Uh…?" Ruby asked, nervous.
"Crap. I didn't know she would be here!" Jared said, his eyes widening.
Penny begins gleefully sprinting toward Ruby and Jared at high speed, "...tations!"
Penny leaps and activates her jets, rocketing forward and tackling Ruby and Jared, the both of them flailing their hands around in front of them and screams, eyes wide. Upon crashing to the ground, Ruby and Jared groan in pain.
"Now I know why the TARDIS gave me a Penny tackle hug…" Jared said, sadly. "She hinted at her returning."
Tardis…
"Lever two, Nora. Lever three." The Doctor said.
The Time Glass and the screen blow out. The past Arrivals area is empty.
Arrivals area…
Both Amys and Jared are together.
"Jared." Jaune said, walking over to young Jared.
"Hi." Jared said, happily.
"Hi." Older Jared said, happily.
Jared hugs Team JNR. Older Jared looked away embarrassed.
"Sorry. About leaving you like that." Jaune said.
"It's fine." Jared said.
"It's fine." Older Jared said.
"Why are you…" Jared and Older Jared said, at the same time.
"That's a bit weird." Nora said. "Why are they in sync?"
"This is annoying. Stop copying me!"
"How about our Jared speaks first?" Ren asked.
"Which one is your Jared?" Jared and Older Jared asked, at the same time.
"I don't know." Jaune said, sadly.
"I am. No, I am. Jaune. Jaune, can you tell the difference between us? You are one of my best friends."
The Rory-cam glasses start to spark.
Tardis…
"Rory. Rory, take the glasses off. You're getting temporal feedback." The Doctor said, while bits of the console go bang. "Whoa! Calm down, dear. Rory, Amy, Jared, Team JNR, we've created a massive paradox and the Tardis hates it. She's self-phasing, trying to get out of here. What's the nasty Amy and Jared done to you? Just calm down, dear. Hang on in there. Rory, Team JNR, you've got eight minutes left. I'm sorry, you're on your own now."
The glasses explode.
Arrivals area…
"I'm not on my own. I've got my wives." Rory said.
"And you have us." Jaune said, walking up to Rory.
"You'll be fine." Ren said.
"No one is gonna hurt you." Nora said, holding her hammer.
"Do not be alarmed." The handbot said.
"Incoming!" Rory said.
"This is a kindness."
"With me." Older Jared said, looking at his younger self.
Older Amy gives her younger self a stout staff.
"Do not be alarmed, this is a kindness. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
"Juliet's Rose." Older Jared said, looking at his younger self. "And Ember Gungnir. Nice combination."
"Tell me about it." Jared said, smiling. "This is a lot of fun."
"This is a kindness." The handbot said.
With those disposed of, more Handbots beam in.
"They're cutting off the Departure Gate. We can't get back to the Tardis." Jaune said.
"Ooo, a side door!" Nora said, excitedly. "We can go behind them."
Staircase…
"So, you're gonna help us defeat Salem, really?" Jared asked.
"Yeah. I have a lot more fighting knowledge than you." Older Jared said.
"Jaune, can we not invite him?"
"Jaune, can we not invite him?"
"Guys, guys." Jaune said, sadly. "This is gonna be annoying."
Basement…
"Where are you gonna go? You can't go to Remnant with us." Jared said, wearing his gauntlets.
"Don't worry. I'm not going with you. You can stop Salem with your family. I'll travel the multiverse. Come back for Thanksgiving, Easter, and Christmas." Older Jared said.
"You did say you wanted there to be two of you." Ren said, holding Nora's hand. "The Gangers could have helped."
Gate Room…
"Can't we just teleport in?" Jaune asked.
"It's not a teleport, it's a time jump." Older Jared said, annoyed.
"They can't punch their way through within the same time stream." Jared said, sadly.
"Yes." Older Amy said.
"The Tardis is in the Gallery." Ren said.
"Gallery closed." The interface said.
"The controls are stuck. They've locked them from outside." Older Amy said.
"Can you unlock them?" Rory asked.
"Yeah, give me a minute and your cutest smile. That's the one."
"Can you stop flirting with me? You're old enough to be my…"
"I've known you my whole life. How many games of Doctors And Nurses? Shush. Don't get coy now."
"Er…" Amy said.
"We're surrounded!" Nora said, looking around.
Handbots enter via the portals.
"What do we do?" Ren asked.
Rory tries to sonic the control column.
"Give me a moment." Jaune said.
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness. Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness. Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
Older Amy starts swinging her katana and Old Jared starts swinging his scythe.
"No!" Older Amy said.
"Come on." Rory said.
"Go! Past me, Ponds, Team JNR. We've got your back." Older Jared said, smirking.
Gallery…
There are Handbots waiting there.
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." The handbot said.
Amy and Jared get touched.
"No!" Rory said, smashing the Mona Lisa over the Handbot's head.
Rory picks Amy up and Ren and Jaune are supporting Jared from falling as Older Amy and Jared finally comes through the portal.
They stare as Rory runs with his Amy and Team JNR runs with their Jared into the Tardis without looking back.
Tardis...
"Ah, it's just an anaesthetic. They'll be fine." The Doctor said, going to the door.
"That's good." Jaune said, looking down at Jared. "At least they're safe."
Older Amy and Older Jared start running towards the Tardis.
"I'm sorry." The Doctor said, and he slams the door in their faces.
"What are you doing?" Ren asked.
"I lied to them, Rory. There can never be two Amys and two Jareds in the Tardis. The paradox is too massive."
"You can't leave them. They'll die." Nora said, sadly.
Gallery…
"Doctor, let us in. Please!" Older Jared said, banging on the TARDIS door.
Tardis…
"No, they'll never have existed. When we save our Amy and Jared, this future won't have happened." The Doctor said.
"But they happened. They're there." Rory said.
"We trusted you!" Older Amy said, nearby.
"I don't like this." Nora said, grabbing Ren's hand.
"Neither do I." Ren said.
"Look, we take this Amy and Jared, we leave ours. Only one Amy and Jared in the Tardis. Which one do you want?" The Doctor asked, putting Rory's hand on the door latch. "It's your choice."
"What can we do?" Ren asked. "Our Jared can help us stop Salem."
"But the one out there. He has more fighting experience." Jaune said, frowning.
"Maybe we should choose." Nora said.
"Doctor? Doctor! Doctor? Doctor?" Older Amy asked, nearby.
Kirito and Asuna's home…
"Hey, Team JNR." Older Jared said.
"Hi." Jaune said, walking up to Older Jared.
"Are you okay?" Ren asked.
"Not really." Older Jared said. "It's weird to think that I went through this twice."
"What do you mean?" Nora asked.
"Last time this happened to me. Pyrrha was there."
"Pyrrha?" Jaune asked.
"Yeah."
"What do you want to do?" Nora asked.
"I'm giving that version of me. The one who's loving defeating monsters. And seeing all of time and space. The days. The days that I can never have." Older Jared said, smiling. "I used to look at you guys like I did with Amy. Being fascinated with the world."
"And now you know too much." Ren said.
"Yes. I do. I hate knowing what will happen."
"You'll help us defeat Salem. I promise." Jaune said.
Team JNR and Jared logged out of ALFheim Online.
Gallery…
Older Jared opened his eyes. Five more Handbots.
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." A handbot said.
Tardis…
"Do not be alarmed. This is a kindness." A handbot said, nearby.
Gallery…
"Interface?" Older Amy asked.
"I am here, Amy Pond." The interface said.
"Show me Earth. Show me home. Did I ever tell you about this boy I met there, who pretended to be in a band?"
A Handbot touches Older Amy, and she collapses.
"And can you show me Remnant?" Older Jared asked. "Show me my home. Did I ever tell you about these four girls who were superheroes?"
A Handbot touches Older Jared, and he collapses. The Tardis dematerialises.
Tardis…
"Did you always know it would never work? Saving both Amys and Jareds?" Rory asked.
"I promised you I'd save them, and there they are. Safe." The Doctor said.
"Yeah, there they are."
Amy and Jared are waking up.
Jared looked over at Team JNR, "Can we sing some karaoke?"
"Sure." Jaune said, smiling.
"If it's there." Ren said.
"Let's have a duet, Ren!" Nora said, excitedly.
Jared and Team JNR left the console room.
The Doctor sticks his tongue out at Amy, "We'll leave you two alone."
"You all right?" Rory asked.
"Mmm hmm." Amy said.
"How are you feeling?"
"Where are they?"
