The Doctor was buried under the TARDIS’ console when he heard the doors open. ‘Ah! Good! You’re back! Did you and Fitz have a good time in New York?’ He asked popping up on his feet. His face fell as he saw a ragged Sam and Fitz standing there, dirty, clothes torn, looking very exhausted. ‘I thought you were going to-bite the Big Apple, not let it bite you. What happened?’ He asked walking over to them.
‘Face it Doctor!’ Fitz began, ‘we’re not safe anywhere.’
‘A good time he says. It’ll be fun he says.’ Sam began looking at Fitz.
‘I’ll tell you what happened. First we go to take that train thing and some bloke with four metal arms sends us careening to our death. Then another one in a spider costume saves us spinning webs all over the place. Well we finally get out of there and decide to go hoofing it to Times Square when another nut riding some flying death machine scoops me up and starts to babble on about revenge and what not, DROPS me, and I’m falling to my death when that chap in the spider suit shows up again, grabs me and swings me to safety.’
‘Yeah well while you were up there,’ Fitz interrupted. ‘He was throwing these bombs at the building and I would’ve been a goner if he hadn’t pulled me put of the way with that web stuff he had.’ Fitz looked at his jacket as it still had some residue on the sleeve.
‘You'd have been a goner?!’
’Yes!’
As the Doctor listened to them, he noticed they were talking faster with growing enthusiasm.
‘So!’ Sam continued. ‘We decide to go on a boat ride to get away from it all. Just before we board that man with the metal arms throws a motor car at our boat, picks up the both of us up flailing us to and fro, climbs to one of those skyscrapers, until the Spider-guy comes back.’
‘When he did show up,’ Fitz continued. ‘The octopus man tried to kill the Spider-guy by throwing me at him for target practice. He swings and catches me-‘
‘Then he throws me,’ Sam continued, ‘and that green monster catches me before Spider-guy was able to.’
‘So, Spider-guy throws me near a building and webs me to it, swings up and spits that web stuff in his flying machine sending it flying helter skelter, the green guy drops Sam then the Spider-guy catches Sam, throws her and webs her next to me, beats up the octopus chap and sends him off to fight another day.’
‘Then the Spider- guy gets Fitz and me down and drops us off back here.’
The Doctor just looked at them incredulously not knowing what to say.
Sam and Fitz looked at each other and a sheepish grin broadened their faces. 'I wonder if we can find him tomorrow? Fitz said with a grin.
‘I don’t know but I’m gonna find something cool to wear the next time he saves me.’ Sam said
‘Me too. I hope our cosmic karma for getting in trouble holds up. We’d better change. He talked to me ya know’? He asked if I was all right.'
'Pish posh.' Sam started as their voices trailed off as they both left to their rooms. 'He said to me I usually don't pick up girls like this....
The Doctor just stood there for a moment in disbelief.
He gathered his thoughts, walked over to the controls. He took a deep sigh. ‘Well that explains power flux traveling in vortex. You must've had a temporal hiccup and landed in a parallel universe.' He turned a few knobs and switches then walked back to the main panel. 'There. That should get us back to where we belong.' He reset the coordinates, dematerialized and went back to work under the TARDIS hopefully leaving cosmic karma back in New York.
