Dear Reader,

I'd like to start off this note by thanking all my fans for their support. It really means a lot to me that you guys continually support me and get all excited about my writing. It just makes all this that much more enjoyable. Next, I'd like to say wow 223 reads! That means the world to me, it truly does. I never imagined that I could ever get that many reads so soon, and I'd just like to thank everyone again for that.

Next, I'd like to dedicate this chapter to one of my friends who convinced me to write a fan fiction in the first place. Thanks for all your continued support in all of my writing endeavors. 

I wanted to stir up a little drama and well, I hope I didn't over do it, but you will have your drama my fellow Whovians!

One last thing, I have decided that I'm going to start the voting equals more chapters again. If I have 10 more votes than when I post this before Monday, then I will write another chapter and post it sooner. Otherwise, you will just have to wait till next time.

Till next time,

Change of Plans

I coughed and slowly opened my eyes. It was completely dark, I couldn't see anything. My throat felt dry and scratchy as if I had swallowed a large pile of dirt, which was probably what I had done exactly on the fall down. I began to move my hands along the rough craggy ground, there were hard rocks surrounding the floor.

Soft footsteps scurried around me.

"Who's there?" I whispered squinting in the darkness.

"Just me, Jessie."

I heard the Doctor's voice and instantly felt relief wash over me.

"Where are we, Doctor?" I crawled slowly on the ground following the sound of the Doctor's voice.

"Underground as far as I can tell, about 10 meters below."

I instantly heard the familiar sound of the Doctor's device. It blipped and bleeped as I caught sight of a blue light emanating from it.

"Don't you have a flashlight or a light of some sort?" I murmured wiping my dirt covered hands on my jeans.

I reached out to hold onto something as I slowly stood up, but instead was met with absolutely nothing. Somehow, I managed to stand up without falling back down again, today was going to be a good day.

"No, all I've got is my sonic screwdriver. Who needs a flashlight when you can have a sonic screwdriver?"

The Doctor must have been pacing or moving around a lot because I could've sworn I heard the repeated shuffle of his feet against the ground.

"Sonic screwdriver? Is that the bleeping device with the blue light that you're talking about? You're not from around here, are you?" I chuckled lightly as I walked forward and banged straight into a hard metal object which creaked back in response.

"Well, to be completely honest, I'm not. I'm a long way from home. And, what did you just call my sonic screwdriver? A bleeping device with a blue light? Jessie, you have such a way with your words." He spoke nostalgically for a moment until he quickly changed into a more lighthearted manner.

There was a loud click as the lights turned on and the darkness disappeared.

I noticed immediately the sadness in his eyes, he seemed to be preoccupied about something.
