"I'm pretty sure there's a lift, but..." The Physicist latched onto the ladder and climbed it slowly. "Not very used to ladders!" He nearly slipped multiple times.

"It'll be good for our legs, we have been sleeping for a few years." he pointed out, his legs getting used to walking.

"There is no Gallifrey left to compare this to, though by the time the human race is as old as the Time Lords there may be no Earth either." The Traveler, "I don't really want to take the stairs or the ladder, it would take too long."

"Whatever miss!" The Physicist still climbed. "Yeah, how long were we asleep? How many years"

"What are you doing? It's the middle of the night! Tourism is closed at this time!" Edmee watched as they began to climb up the ladder. "Ugh... Whatever, I guess I gotta follow along anyways." She shivered as the cold began to make her nose go red. "It's fucking spring, why is it so damn cold..." Edmee muttered to herself. They spoke about Gallifrey, a place she had never heard of before and their own species, which they deemed to be rather aggressive. "So you guys are like, the last of your kind? Like an endling?"

"Yep, the last ones. The Doctor told us that our kind was killed in a great war between evil death machines called the Daleks and the last of the Timelords. Only the Doctor survived it, and so he went on continuing to save the universe." he said. "Until he passed away, of course. Now it's our time to shine!" he said happily, a ting of sadness in his voice could be noted.

"That wasn't obvious?! We're time lords, you don't here about that in history books or astronomy classes do you?! This is our job right now! And we're not tourists!" The Physicist became slowly louder and louder.

"Keep your voice down." he shushed him. "She's right, though, this think isn't open to tourists right now, an if we get arrested, we'll never be able to be the universe saviors that we are!" he said.

Nathaniel had stayed after closing, probably not his best idea but he had promised to bring back good pictures and he didn't want to disappoint the family, especially his younger sister who couldn't come because of her school schedule. As cliché as this was for a visit in Paris it was so amazing he didn't care. That was until he heard footsteps, someone was climbing up the tower. He quickly hid on the other side of the base, he would need to find a way to sneak down if the guards were coming.

"Yeah, because that matters! We have lots of ways to escape!" The Physicist slowly got more used to climbing. "Are you at the top yet?!"

"Jesus, calm down." Edmee winced as his voice grew into a yell. "Normally we don't learn about aliens and what not, we focus on ourselves because we're not as technologically as advanced as you guys supposedly are." She climbed up the ladder and began walking up the long flight of stairs. "You're all happy go lucky even though you're the last of your kind. You'll start to feel lonely, ya know? Humans can't last two hours in total isolation."

"We aren't alone! There's 5 or 6 of us! We really don't need to know about you! And the reason you don't know about us is because according to you we don't exist!" The Physicist took slow, heavy breaths as he climbed.

"We're nearing the top, I think." he said as he stuck his head out of of the top of the Eiffel Tower. "Yep, we're here!" he got off the ladder and leaned on the rails. "Paris is pretty cool. You can see all of it from up here."

"Finally, now let's get up." The Physicist popped his head up, before looking down. "Damn, that's high when you don't have shielding." He climbed up. "Wow, it is beautiful up here." The Physicist looked down on the lights of Paris, and crouched. "Makes you wanna jump, doesn't it?"

"We haven't even traveled to other planets yet, we evolve slowly, okay?" Edmee sighed as the finally made it to the top. The girl sat down on the cold metal and let her legs dangle from the edge. "Security isn't tight here, it isn't like anyone is going to care. In the mornings when I bike to school, I can see a long line of tourists from all kinds of different countries. It's funny, because we don't even have one universal language." The cold wind blew, causing the girl to shiver and draw her knees into her chest to keep warm. "So how do you understand French if you're not from Earth?"

The Traveler was the last to make it to the top, panting she felt like she was about to throw up. "Why did we have to take the long way, I'm so tired! But it is really cool up here." She stared over the city, before turning to Edmee and talked quietly so the others would not hear. "Plus we have the....erm...resources to repopulate but that doesn't seem to be a top priority, I actually rather like it that way."

"TARDIS translates everything, we hear you in English, we speak in English, you hear us in French and speak it French. Pretty nifty." The Physicist dropped his legs and dangled. "So pretty. Wow."

"Interesting." Edmee glanced up at The Traveler and chuckled. "Of course you guys don't have repopulating as a top priority. You're all too busy 'saving the universe' and what not." She chuckled and inhaled the frigid air, the cold air filled her lungs. "It's nice when it's dark out, that's when all the city lights pop up, it's a perfect picture place."

*Earlier That Week*


Thalia groaned, where in the world was she? Everything was backwards, everything felt strange....she was floating? Opening her eyes she breathed out deeply...not floating...not backwards. She was simply out of bed, her head touched the floor and she was upside-down. Well that ruins the magic now doesn't it? She thought, her own light voice ringing in her head. She slid the rest of the way off the bed, hitting her back on the rough carpet that was never soft enough.

She walked the long path of shame, heading to her bathroom. There she turned the stainless steel knobs, water flowing into the bath. She plugged the drain with a stopper and poured some good smelling oils in as well. Humming to herself she waited for it to fill. When the tub eventually did she stripped and stepped in.

It had only been...five, maybe ten minutes? And she had gotten a phone call, ruining the peace. She growled and her searched for her cellular phone, she was sure she had left it near the tub. In the span of a second she found it on the toilet seat. She drowsily put in her pass-code and pressed the speaker button. She was not excited to talk to the girl on the other side of her phone; a friend of hers named Sara, that girl was always excited and helpful. Thalia wasn't in the mood for that.

"Hello, you've reached Thalia. What do you want?" Thalia stated, her tone was light but agitated.
"Are you at the airport? Because I heard you were heading to Paris!" Her voice dripped cheerfulness.
"No, my flight isn't for another hour. I wanted to enjoy my time at home." Thalia bit her lip, she was going to be late at this rate.
"Thalia! You should get going!" She urged, obviously nervous. It made Thalia sick.
"Sara! I'm fine, I won't be late." Thalia's toe fished around for the stopper. It found it's mark and lifted it, the water starting to drain from the tub.
"Well, I have to go, I really hope you make it on time. You deserve this vacation." And with that she ended the call.

Lifting herself up Thalia cursed, she was tired, hungry, upset, and tardy. How could the day get better? It couldn't and it wouldn't because that was how her life hit her in the face.

She grabbed her bags after getting herself ready makeup, perfumes, lotions, outfits, everything she would need for her vacation. She though that she had everything, but she wasn't sure, this made her nerves pile up; she tensed. It was going to be along day...a long week. And with that nervous feeling still in the pit of her stomach, she headed out the door. She walked over to her car and got in, starting it and driving over to the airport. She was excited for the journey, but at the same time she felt as though it wasn't going to be as fun as she hoped. Her trips always ended up like that.

*Present Day*


Thalia sighed, she walked casually on the streets of Paris. Her flats made little noise on the sidewalk, she had no idea where she was. Just another random street she supposed, today she was going to visit the Eiffel Tower; she wished it was as gorgeous as she had been told. From her expensive hotel view she could see it in the distance, it looked nice and quiet. But she knew that it would be bustling with other annoying tourists like herself.

As she walked further and further she decided it was about time for her to hail a cab, and so she stopped advancing; taking a step into the street, standing still with her arm raised patiently. Soon a cab arrived, and she jumped in as soon as it stopped. "Um..." she mustered up all her French lessons. "Pouvez-vous me prendre à Champ de Mars? Ou Quai Branly s'il est plus facile?" She asked loudly, the cab driver nodded, starting the cab and heading towards their destination. Thalia sighed in relief and laid back against the leather seats.

They arrived soon enough, and she moved out of her seat. After paying the driver she pranced over to the Champ de Mars, he had dropped her off on the closet street to the monument, seeing as it was already too crowded to get in closer.

She walked cautiously, gripping her purse and studying the tower silently. It was..nice, flushed in some form of peace. She shrugged, it was so beautiful..truly worth it's praise. But she felt as though it would be better if she could go inside of it, maybe study the interior or something like that? She walked around to the entrance, it was crowded with couples and the likes, people in tuxes and people in their tourist garb. She stood in a sort of line that had formed, observing her surroundings thoughtfully until she made her way to the front. Everyone moved swiftly. She payed her thirteen euros and was escorted to the lift.

The lift made a whirring noise, something pounded on the metal cage above her. Thalia looked around. She was alone...this was bad. The lift stopped, and she wondered what was going on. She checked her watch, almost wanting to scream. She had gotten in just as the Tower was closing. How in the world had she slipped through like that? Who let her? She was alone in a closed lift and she had to stay there for an entire night. Soon though, the lift opened. She expected to see tourists, or other people there. It couldn't be empty already. But she saw nothing other then the metal of the tower, though beautiful it had a slightly eery effect right about now. She bit her cheek, and wandered into the sort of hallway that stretched before her.

Thalia saw no one, but she heard people, she heard footsteps and she knew that others were around her. "Hello?" She asked, her voice rung nicely through the area. She heard paced footsteps now, a grunt here and there. What in the world? She asked herself, still walking forwards. She gripped her bag a bit more tightly. Maybe the only people here were French? But she had to get there attention. "Bonjour? Tout le monde ici?" She could still hear footsteps, and now she heard gruff voices too; they started to get louder, as if they were approaching. Whoever was here with her was coming towards her, she heaved a sigh of relief and waited. Then she decided to contact her saviors once more. Since they apparently spoke French she tried it again. "Ah, je vous remercie! Savez-vous quel est le problème avec l'ascenseur? Je pense que nous devrions appeler de l'aide."

Her saviors soon came around a corner, and she found that they weren't saviors at all. Three humanoid figures with messed up features; four eyes, spikes for arms..distinctly red skin. They were beasts, each had a human limb hanging from their mouths or the spikes they had for arms. It was fairly grotesque, the gore that accompanied them made it all the worse. She screeched, but she couldn't run away. The lift had closed, and was making its way down the Tower, and the only way to get away from them was to run past them. A wall of three cannibals? I'm done for! She looked around, and pulled out her last line of defense, a simple can of pepper spray. She acted as if it were a serious weapon, standing firm as they approached. It wouldn't hold them off, they weren't afraid of it...but what else could she do? Cower in fear as they ripped her apart? That actually sounds nice...really nice. She thought, mentally it was a great plan, but physically she didn't want to die like that. Her muscles tensed, prepared for action. She weighed her options..they looked stringy enough to barge through, their hands were partially occupied. Maybe they weren't good at running? That was all Thalia had on her side, she had no weight on her either, she had no skills in self defense. If they could get a hold of her she was their lunch, but if she could outlast them someone could save her. That made her feel terrible, sick to her stomach..she always needed saving, why couldn't she be an awesome hero? Not the time! Go, just go and die if you must! And with that motivation, she charged them. Her arm was used as a guard, and her pepper spray was her weapon. She was going to die, but she was going to die in a blaze of mental glory.

Nathaniel sighed silently as who ever was up here stayed by the exit, their conversation was pretty unusual though, could they really be aliens? Only one way to know. He stepped out in the light, "Definitely prettier at night, you guys weren't the only ones with the idea to come up here." He smiled guiltily.
