Excerpt from: Voyager and the Convergence

“So, it causes, what exactly?” B'Elanna asked.

 

“Overlaps between one universe and another,” the Doctor explained. “When Voyager enters we will find ourselves occasionally overlapping with other Voyagers.”

 

“That reminds me of something,” Harry Kim said.

Excerpt from: Dragons: Risks out of the Archipelago

It was a quiet day at Dragons Edge. But it wouldn’t be for much longer. Hiccup and Toothless were out on patrol when they saw a Terror mail approaching from the direction of Berk. “Back to the Club House, bud,” Hiccup said.

 

Toothless gave a rumble as he acknowledged his rider’s command. They then sped back to the Club House.

 

 

“Hiccup?” Astrid asked when she saw him enter the Club House.

 

“A Terror mail, from Berk. It could be anything,” he said in a slightly worried tone.

 

But what could be worrying him? “Berk is fine, Hiccup,” she said reassuringly.

 

“I know, Astrid, but Viggo could make another move against Berk at any time.”

Excerpt from: Changes in Time and Space – Eleventh’s involvement

Felicia shot back. “I have been travelling with her for five months.”

 

“I have run out of regenerations!”

 

Felicia thought for a moment. “Maybe you obtained some more?” she asked.

 

“Unlikely, the Time Lords are gone!” The Doctor thought for a moment. “Or maybe, River did more than save my life. Either that. Or the Sisterhood broke the rules and gave me extra.”

 

“There’s your answer,” Felicia suggested. ‘Whoever this Sisterhood is,’ she wondered.

 

“Probably,” the Doctor said in a dubious tone.

 

“So, you believe me?”

 

“Yes. It means that I’ll survive whatever is coming,” the Doctor said sardonically.

 

Felicia wasn’t sure to what the Doctor was referring to.

Excerpt from: Daria – Brittany

“So, it will be on Saturday night?” Daria asked.

 

“Yes. Ashley-Amber will still be home on Friday night,” Brittany answered.

 

“Oh, so you don’t want them to know?” Daria asked.

 

“In case it does get out of control,” Brittany added.

 

“Of course.”

 

 

They talked more about the party before just talking as the friends they were, with Daria slowly coming out of her shell more. This camaraderie was interrupted by Daria’s mother coming into the kitchen, having come home half an hour after Andrea had come over. “Oh, you must be Andrea, Brittany and Donna,” she said.

 

“Yes, I’m Brittany.” She indicated both Donna and Andrea in turn introducing them to Mrs. Morgendorffer.

 

“I’m happy Daria has made friends,” Mrs. Morgendorffer said. There was something about her expression that made Brittany think that there was more to the statement than she let on. She looked to Daria, but she had her usual neutral expression.

 

“Yes. I think she has found Lawndale to be better than she expected it to be,” Andrea said guardedly.

 

“She has said that,” Mrs. Morgendorffer said whilst glancing at her daughter.

 

“Although your husband was a little surprised that we were her friends. He thought we were Quinn’s,” Donna said.

 

“He did?” Mrs. Morgendorffer asked.

 

Brittany nodded.

 

“Well, consider that Daria hasn’t really had friends until now. And Quinn is rather outgoing.”

 

“That’s understandable,” Andrea said.

 

“In any case, it’s time to begin preparing for dinner.”

 

“Don’t we usually just have frozen lasagne?” Daria asked.

 

“We’ll be having that, but there will be frozen vegetables too,” her mother said.

 

“Of course.”

 

Quinn then entered the kitchen. “Mom. Sandi says there’s a party on this Saturday night.”

“Word is already spreading,” Donna whispered.

 

Mrs. Morgendorffer perked up on hearing both Quinn and Donna. “What was that?” she asked both of them, although she was mostly looking at Quinn.

 

‘She didn’t miss that,’ Brittany noted to herself. ‘Certainly more on the ball than Ashley-Amber is.’ That wasn’t to say that Ashley-Amber was just a dimbo of course.

 

“A party this Saturday night. In Crewe Neck,” Quinn answered.

 

“I see,” Mrs. Morgendorffer responded. She turned back to Donna. “What do you know about this?”

 

“Actually, Mrs. Morgendorffer, it’s Brittany’s party,” Donna clarified.

 

“Is it?” Quinn asked.

 

“So, Daria is going to this party?” Mrs. Morgendorffer asked, glancing between Daria and Brittany.

Excerpt from: Emily and the Doctor

“So, you don’t know what the threat will be, exactly?” the President asked.

 

“Not yet, but it will become apparent.”

 

 

National Security Advisor Aaron Shore was annoyed. UNIT was giving him the run-around. “You misunderstand. The Doctor is here, in the White House. The TARDIS landed here.”

 

“Do you have proof?” the UNIT person asked.

 

“Of course, I have proof. There is photographic, audio and video evidence that the TARDIS is presently in the White House,” Aaron answered.

 

“Then we’ll wait for you to send the files over.”

 

 

Chuck Russink accessed the files. “So, the Doctor didn’t specify what the threat is going to be?”

 

“No,” Aaron answered.
