The Doctor has brought David to the very beginnings of his Solar System, he bounces up towards the doors. "So? Are we ready for adventure! Where to next? The banana fields of the Valeyards? There used to be a weapons plant, but I put a banana grove there instead."

There's a happy feeling on The Doctor's face, as he found someone with the same enthusiasm levels as he does about these things. "Troy? I loved Troy! Been there once, but I can always go again. It was a much different voice and face. Well I was very different then, a bit older with lots of white hairs."

"How about? Um, we see a show? A show on a world of ice? We can see ice cream people!"

David blinked at the Doctor. He could have stayed here for a year, but that wasn't possible. He had John to get back to. Eventually. He was sure his best friend wouldn't begrudge him a little vacation. Once in a life time, right?

"How about you surprise me?" he said softly, standing away from the door and turning back to his lookalike. His smile was slow, but still present and only picked up when he caught the other man's grin.

This was going to be amazing.

The Doctor goes to drag his friend back into the TARDIS. "I'd never thought you'd ask."

The Doctor thinks, he pushes a few dials and with the doors closing he selects somewhere fun to go. It's always nice to revisit old favorites, a cross of the broken barriers and the TARDIS slips through the Vortex to that five billion point.

No, not the destruction of the Earth. He goes for the planet with the cat people and New New York. "Okay, I'm going to be a bit of a pest here. The last time it was a quiet city, but that should of changed now."

"Hold on!" The Doctor cries out, as he props a foot up on the console of the TARDIS and he pulls down on a lever.

David was going to insist on seat belts. Or railing belts. Or maybe warning ten seconds ahead of time so that he could lay down first before they went off like space cowboys. He was laughing as he tumbled over, laughing his silly foolish head off even as he rolled right into a wall.

It was worth it. Jumping to his feet, David rushed to the door and flung it open as soon as the rocking stopped.

"Blimey!" he said, eyes as wide as saucers as he stumbled out onto the grass. "Bliiiiiimey! What's the smell? Apples?!"

The Doctor looks up to see the brilliant city of the future in front of them.

"Apple grass. Love the smell of the stuff, oh you can take a sprig or two back with you. I'm sure it wouldn't cause much trouble for you." He offers David his hand, and he points to the countless flying cars. "Welcome to the year 5 apple. Oh, you'll get to meet proper aliens too here."

Without even thinking about it, David's hand slipped into the Doctor's. It was as if it belonged there, as if the wiggling fingers sort of made it impossible to say no to them, or deny them anything.

"Apple?" He meant the year and not the grass. "What number does it stand for?"

"Billion." The Doctor continues to hold David's hand, and he looks at the brilliant city of New New York. "And, that is New New York."

If David said 'blimey' one more time it would cease to be a word and turn into those weird collections of syllables that no long make a lick of sense. He dragged the Doctor forward, actually running. He could pick grass later. Now, he wanted nothing more than to get into one of those cars and poke around. Or climb to the top of one of those buildings.

He was very nearly one of those excitable puppies that would pee if you pet them. Wide eyed, he couldn't let anything go unnoticed.

"New New York. Oh, she's beee-u-tiful!"

The Doctor feels great again, this couple of weeks of sure glee should brilliant! This time for once, The Doctor isn't the one doing the pulling.

"Gack!" The Doctor yells, and he continues to let David drag him. There is then a burst of laughter. "Ah, and of course humans still live on. The city is filled with them, and of course then there are the hybrids."

"No!" David said, shocked and amazed. "Human...other thing...hybrids?! You mean humans are interbreeding-- Oh, if I was a biologist!" He could be an honorary one! A few billion years in the future might have some very interesting future things going on!

But first, they needed to get across the lake and to the city.

He was almost whining before he saw a dock with a hover ferry. "Oh, perfect!" he gushed. It was a good thing that the Doctor was fond of running.

"Yes, there's human fish even!" The Doctor calls out, and he looks at the ferry. There's no worry about money, he reaches into his pocket for his sonic screwdriver.

He looks at the little credit card sized slot. "Credit cards will be taking over cash soon. The human race never looked back."

"Human fish!" And there was that 'blimey' again as David ran his hands through his already wild hair. "Can we see human fish? Can they speak? Can they breathe air? Oh no, will it be like Waterworld?"

Watching the 'credit card' that was actually a cylinder -- he didn't correct the Doctor, sometimes people had strange names for things -- 'pay' for their passage on the ferry, the moment that the buzz sounded and the doors opened, David was already inside. The entire ferry was made of see through glass and beneath the water, he could see that the city across the way was not just built on the island, but sank through it, beneath it, and could foreseeably go passed even the water bed below.

"I've decided," he said, wonder in his eyes, "even if this is a dream... I'm all right with being crazy to experience this!"

"They're on a different planet." The ferry has a few catkind wandering about, a few blue aliens and a bunch of others along with them.

"Ello, scuse us." The Doctor goes to find a seat on the ferry. He looks out at the waters under them. He can only hope that something won't try to break the glass bottom. "I could of taken you to the midnight planet, but I had a bad experience there."

The Doctor looks back up at David. "You know? Ask your friend if he wants to well travel with us. It has to be better teaching in a place nobody's grateful for the classics. I can take him to meet Mozart."

David's grin was inspiring as he felt the 5 apple wind move through his hair. He closed his eyes for a moment before he realized he might be missing out on seeing something amazing!

"Yes, I'll ask John," David said almost absently. "If you're not a delusion. I might be in a mental hospital for all I know right now!" he pointed out lightly. "The drugs might be making me hallucinate."

Oh, if didn't matter when everything was so brilliant.
