 Excerpt from: The Many Doctors – Chapter 107

The console room was similar, but not identical to, the way it would appear with the next three Doctors. The Doctor laid in the coordinates.

“Cool,” Felicia said.

“Would you like a jellybaby?”

Ponta Delgada, Azores Autonomous Region, Portugal

The TARDIS materialised near the centre of the city. The Doctor activated the Scanner. “You’re right,” he said. “There are indications of Drahvin activity.”

“Good,” Felicia said, quietly.

The Doctor thought for a moment. “I can help you find him,” he said.

“That’s what all the others said,” Felicia said.

“What’s to say that I won’t succeed where they failed?” the Doctor asked.

“Worth a shot,” Felicia said, slightly cheerier.”

The Doctor set the TARDIS into motion.

The TARDIS was still travelling, when Felicia returned to the console room.

“Ammonia? That’s interesting,” Sabrina said.

“I knew you would find it such, Sabie,” the Doctor said. “And now, we’ve locked on!”

The TARDIS materialised aboard the Rill ship. Small robots surrounded the ship. “Chumblies,” the Doctor commented.

“Chumblies?”

“That’s what one of my companions called them,” the Doctor recalled. He clicked his fingers, and the door opened.

“Is that you, Doctor?”

“More or less,” the Doctor answered.

“You don’t look the same, but the ship does.”

“That’s true.”

“It is possible,” the Doctor said.

“Great,” Ezri said. “You did bring a tricorder, right, Michaela?”

“Of course, Ezri,” Michaela said.

“You should know by now, that your Fed-tech doesn’t always work,” the Doctor said.

“Of course,” Michaela said. “This universe clearly operates on different principles than ours.”

“Not really,” the Doctor said. “Anyhow, let’s find my earlier self. It is possible that he may already be looking.”

“Sure,” Robyn said.

They went deeper into the forest, and soon found the other TARDIS. “Here’s the TARDIS,” Ezri said.

“Yes, but he could be anywhere,” the Doctor said.

“We could wait inside,” Robyn suggested.

“He wouldn’t like that,” the Doctor objected.

“So, we wait out here?” Michaela asked. It was obvious that she was still wary of the forest.

“Yes,” the Doctor answered.

She looked exactly as she did (or would) in the (small) photos provided by Amanda, except of course for the hair. They hoped that it would remain that way. “Hi,” Myra said.

“What are you doing there?” she asked.

“We're waiting for a friend,” Myra answered. It was true. They would talk to the other agent if it was possible.

“What are you doing?” Leigh asked.

“Also waiting,” the young woman said enigmatically. She looked back to the entrance of the Bistro and looked at the few students who were leaving.

“This is going to be difficult,” Myra commented quietly.

“Try asking her name,” Leigh suggested,

“We already know her name. Besides, I don't think that would be a good idea. She's already on guard!” Myra said.

Leigh thought for a moment. “Good point,” he said. There had to be another way to reassure her that they didn't intend anyting untoward.

However, another person then came out of the Bistro. It was a guy. “Right,” Myra said, ready to follow.

“Come on, 'Ella',” the guy said.

Leigh and Myra looked at each other. That wasn't her name. Not even a diminutive of either of her given names. Something else to be worried about. 'I'm not sure what it means,' Myra thought.

Eighteenth Hour

Kim Pine (Scott Pilgrim)

Kim Pine was not sure why she groped for her drumsticks as she woke up. She never slept with them even when she was a child. As soon as her hand curled around a pair she felt reassured. She sat up and looked at the sticks. They looked brand new. She wondered why she had fallen asleep all dressed up. She didn't drink anymore. She wondered where she was. She stood up and looked both ways along the hallway. 'There's a Trek convention in town? But Neil and Scott together aren't smart enough to drag me down to some lame replica as a joke,' she thought.

She knew where to stick those new drumsticks if that was true though. She walked down the corridor wondering where the 'lameos' were who were supposed run around babbling in Klingon...

Kim rounded a corner and saw two schoolgirls coming towards her. She saw that one of them was Japanese, wearing a sailor girl uniform. The other was caucasian, with red hair a shade darker than hers and glasses. The two were holding hands. The Japanese girl was happy, with the other one seeming to be uncomfortable. She extended her right hand. “Kim Pine. Where the **** are we anyway?” She then stated her appreciation for the Caucasian girl's boots.

The Japanese girl grinned broadly and bowed before shaking Kim's hand. “Oh, Kim, Pine-san. I am Tomoko Kuroki of Tokyo. And allow me to introduce my friend: Commander Daria Morgendorffer, second in Command of this ship,” she said in rather good French.

The other one scowled and added, also in French. “I'm Daria Morgendorffer. And I'm not second in command of anything. The Captain trusts me, is all. You're not halluncinating, Kim. You are on the Federation starship Defiant about twenty light years from Earth. Mokocchi, er, Tomoko here doesn't speak English and no Japanese for me, so if you know it, let's stick to French. Doesn't really matter here though.”

“Enchanted, I'm sure,” Kim answered. “Sorry, I'm not buying it. Are people going to jump out of doors and shout, 'Happy Birthday'? No one cared much before. Hey, if you wanted to do a theme birthday, I'm more of an Orphan Black girl myself.”

Daria nodded. “Oh, it gets weirder and in light of a new occupant of our fair ship, curiouser and curiouser. Come on, Kim, I bet you're hungry. Tomoko and I were going to the replicators, before I go to bed. It's been Eighteen hours.” Daria yawned.

Without hesitation, Kim placed her hand in Daria's and the three young women walked along.

Elsewhere in the ship, River awoke. She remembered where she was. “Don't panic!” the EMH said.

“Holo-Doctor appeared on Voyager, not DS9,” River said.

“If you're referring to what the Captain said about Fictional people appearing on ship, my program has been installed on all Starfleet vessels, not just those in the Intrepid class,” the EMH said.

“I understand,” River said.

“How much Star Trek is there?” Greg wondered from nearby, in a tone, that implied that he was talking to himself.

River looked at him. “Greg Heffley. Wimpy Kid, early 2010s,” she said.

“Hey!” Greg objected.

“Five vid-series,” River continued, ignoring Greg's objection.

“Right, bye!” Greg said. He then ran from the Sickbay.

While Greg was running from sickbay, Magneto entered the mess hall. He approached Catwoman and Bender. “Do you know where the one named, Amanda Waller, the one also refered to as 'The Wall', is? He had heard that she wanted to meet him.

“On the Bridge,” Bender answered quickly.

Magneto knew that Bender was afraid of his powers. “Thank you,” he said. “Come with me.”

“Of course,” the robot said.

“WHY DO YOU WANT WALLER?” Papyrus asked.

“You won't need to know,” Magneto answered.

Greg entered Engineering. He figured that he could talk to R2D2 about things that the movies didn't cover. (He had heard about the Extended Universe, but his school didn't have those books in the library.) “R2?” he asked.

He saw the Droid there, but also Ashoka. She was working on something next to the big pulsing tank in the middle of the room that he was sure was a reactor of some sort. She stopped and came towards him. “Greg, right?” she asked.

“Yes.”

“Why are you here?”

“I thought I could talk to R2, about his adventures with Luke,” Greg answered. “What were you doing?”
