I think someone stole a TARDIS 168

"Yeah, probibly best we do it in there. But some grown-ups are still around, so we should wait for a bit," said Ziona, fiddling with her locket. -------------- "Even if I don't, it will be an interesting experience," said Miles taking his drink. "Cheers," he said, clinking his glass against Zamy's. -------------- "That's good," said melody with a relieved sigh. "Do you know how many of the attackers are left?"

Miles followed, feeling less excited about it than he expected, more like it was just a normal part of life. ---------- "Good. Are there any more?"

"Really? Wonder why I didn't notice it before? Probably because I had no interest in that stuff till now." He walked to the door. "Shall we?" ------------- "Better than expected," said Melody. "Everyone okay?" she asked the hostages.

A rather disturbing adult magazine...

Ziona hugged Dylan. "Cheer up Dylan. You still have all your friends here in the meantime." ------------- Miles smiled. "Thanks Zamy. So, know a place nearby?" -------------- With four left, Melody rushed forward, quicking taking two more out before they could react.

"Good that you're okay. And... he'll be back soon, won't he?" asked Ziona ------------ "So, one drink then call it a night?" suggested Miles. ----------- Melody rolled into the room, through a couple of knives as she did so, impaling two of the hostage takers before reaching cover.

"Great! I head Mi... your Dad shouting. I thought that might put you off," said Ziona. She was smiling, but the was a slightly forced element to it. ------------- "I'll give you that, but it should still be safe to experience it, right?" said Miles. -------------- "Signal me when you're ready," whispered Melody though the comms.

Miles paused. "Well, currently I am about ten years older than that." ------------------ "Sounds good. If I missed spotting anyone you'd still get the drop on them," whispered Melody

"Glen.... is bein' all funny and quiet," said Ziona sitting down on the bed. "Are we still gonna have our sleepover party tonight?" she asked excitedly.

"Thank's Dylan," smiles Ziona as she stepped inside.

"You have NO idea," grinned Miles walking to the fridge. He opened it and looked in. "Hmm, no beer. Fancy going out for a drink?" ------------ "Agreed. Plus a distraction might be useful..."

"Yeah, it's good to be back," said Miles. "I need to kick back a bit after dealing with the kids all day!" ------------- "Eight that I saw, there could be more," said Melody

"Goodnight Zamy," said Harmony. "Thank;s again!" said Anna. -------------- Melody poked her head around the corridor, then withdrew. "Yeah, hostages... including who I guess is the boss!"

"Yeah, it's me Dylan. Can I come in?" she asked. ------------- "I think so, yeah. The kids are in their rooms now, it should be okay," said Miles. ------------- "Agreed. It's still to qu... wait... I think I hear voices ahead."

Ziona snuck her way through the corridors, heading to Dylan's room. She looked around then knocked on the door, ----------- Miles grinned. "Yeah, I get it." ------------- Melody gulped. "Let's just leave it then!"

"I'm not... I just meant one day," said Miles. ------------- "Hmmm, Mother could.... in theory I could.... but not worth the risk," said Melody

"Oh... er... you heard that..." said Miles rubbing the back of his neck embarrassed. "Yeah... I know, I know..." Harmony and Anna giggled. ------------ "Oh... uh... Sorry Hope. Right, let's keep pushing on. We do have one advantage, we still have the emerald!"

Miles smiled. "Such a great kid," he said, before walking back. "I... do hope I'll be a proper father one day..." He gave a small jump. "Ah, you're back already!" ------------ "Well, yeah, but, you know... best laid plans," said Melody awkwardly.

"No problem kiddo. How have a good nights rest. It was great to see you Son," said Miles rubbing Dylan's head. -------------- "Thank's again Zamy," said Harmony. --------------- "Yeah... they're... not really my forte... I... don;t tend to leave survivors..."

"We will, promise," said Miles. ------------ "Thank's Zamy. You'res look noces too!" said Harmony. -------------- "I hope not. I HATE hostage situations..." said Melody

Just hold on! We're gonna help! 140

"Because our work is important Dylan. But we'll soon have much more time to spend with you."

"I'm getting this," said Harmony holding up another bikini. ------------ "Yeah... where is everyone?"
