Dad took us off back into space and I ran my hand against the console. The Tardis hummed in greeting and you could feel the love she had for one of her youngest pilots. There was a loud horn sound followed my a crash and the Tardis sort of was take a chunk out of. I squealed falling to the ground at the backwards pressure of what happened and coughed at the dust.

"Kate!" i heard Dad scrambled next to me "Are you all right?"

"Yeah, nothing more than shock." I waved the smoke away and we looked up "What the hell?" I ask seeing the front of a ship poking through the Tardis walls.

"What?" we moved forward and Dad found a life ring and turned it over. There in big black letters was TITANIC. "What?" he asked again and stared up at the ship. He then jumped up and ran around the console flipping switches. The Tardis repaired itself and then we landed. I brought myself up to my feet and dusted myself off. Dad took my hand and lead me down to the doors and opened it. We stepped out into another broom cupboard, briefly checking the Tardis and then heading out and coming into a grand early 1900s ballroom.

"Whoa." I muttered taking his arm as we walked through. For a moment I thought it was the actual titanic, that was until a saw I little...well dwarf, red and spiked alien talking with two women. "Okay that's not normal."

"You can say that again. look." Dad caught my attention and pulled me closer to the window. My jaw slackened slightly. There below was earth. My earth. i turned sharply looking around.

"attention passengers. the titanic is now in orbit above sol 3, also know as Earth. Population, Human. Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to Christmas." the announcer declared and i reverted back to my Dad. He laughed while I squealed.

"Let's change." I pulled him back to the Tardis and we headed for the wardrobe and headed off in different directions. thanks to the Tardis quick refresher. i was washed of the dust and rubble and the dress. And picked out a gown with some small heels.

"Kate, are you coming!" Dad called as i fixed my earrings in heading down and back to the console room.

"Will you relax, it's not the end of the world if i take a little time getting ready." he turned around in a tux and a bow tie. "What do you think? To much?" i wondered twirling around

"Not at all, you look beautiful."

"Thank you. Shall we?" he offered me his arm and we returned back to the ship . Looking more closer and the on deck information hub.

"Max Capricorn Cruise liners. The fastest, the furthest, the best. And I should know because my name is Max." came the propaganda and the shine gold tooth.

"What is with the gold tooth and adult men. It's not cool it's creepy." I grumble as Dad messed with his tie "Will you stop messing, it looks fine." Winter wonderland started playing.

"Oh this is my favourite, can we?" I ask

"Go on then." we headed towards the dance floor.

"Merry Christmas Sir, Ma'am." one of the staff nodded to us

"Merry Christmas." We chime and made our way into the sea of people. Dad struggled with his foot work at first, giving me a few bruised toes but eventually got into the swing of it. He twirled me around giggling and brought me back in as conversations carried on around us.

"It's not a holiday for me, not while I've still got my vone. So do as I say and Sell." one passenger stated

"Intense or what." Dad smirked and Another passenger asked if he may dance with me. Dad agreed and I swapped partners. i saw my dad speaking to one of the angels.

"Sorry, terrible memory. What are those things?" I asked my partner

"The Heavenly hosts? Robots telling us things we want to know silly." I laughed a little and broke off heading over to my Dad

"The purpose of the cruise is to experience primitive cultures." i heard the back end of a answer

"Who you calling primitive." I scoff joining my Dad's side. "So, what did you discover nosy?"

"Well...we are traveling from the Planet Sto in the Cassavainin Belt, On a exploration cruise on different...cultures." I nod in understanding "Titanic, who thought of the name?" Dad wondered

"Information. It was chosen as the most famous vessel of the planet earth." came the reply

"Yeah famous for not the best reasons. Were you told why it was famous?" I inquired

"Information. All designations are chose by Mr Max Capricorn, President of Max...max..max..max." The host started twitching and malfunctioning.

"Oh, bit of a glitch." Dad went to take out his sonic screwdriver when one ships men came over and Dad stopped

"Sorry chaps, we can handle this." he called a couple of others over and powered it down "Bit of software malfunction that's all. Leave it with us, sir. Ma'am. Merry Christmas." he gave us a nervous smile. We nodded to him and i glanced at my dad.

"Is it me or is your weird-meter going off." I mumble to him as the robot is carried away.

"It's probably nothing." he shrugged, making me snort in amusement

"I love how you say that with so much optimism." I look around "I know it's a cruise liner but where are the soft drinks you know for those of us who are underage." There was a smash and we looked over to a waitress and a rude passenger.

"For toff's sake! Look where you're going . This Jacket's a genuine earth antique." my jaw dropped at his rudeness.

"I'm sorry sir." the waitress replied

"You'll be sorry when it comes off your wages, sweetheart. Staffed by idiots. No wonder Max Capricorn is going down the drain. "

"The cheek." I storm over "Oi. numbskull." and he turns to me

"Where do you get off being rude. From what I've observed you have your face stuck to that dumbs phone of yours your most likely crashed into her. She should be the one apologising, it should be you."

"Do you have any idea who I am?"

"A bone head." I folded my arms sassing him "Buffon, cretin, dimwit. would you like me to continue with my list of human insults that describe you. As for that jacket. Earth antique my rear end, its more of a galvian rip off or were you dropped on your head too many times to notice that this is not even earthly material. Do you even know what it feels like or did you just yeah yeah, whatever." i mocked him being on his phone "Boy get out of hear before i drop kick you into next year." He stared at me stunned

"Scram!" he quickly moved away i turn around and look down to see my Dad helping clear up the glass. "You okay?"

"You finished chewing him up?" Dad wondered

"Yeah i spit him back out again." The two stood up

"Kate, this is Astrid. Astrid this is my daughter Kate." Dad introduced us "Don't mind her she's tenacious when she's on a roll."

"Well I don't like rude people. Merry Christmas by the way."

"Merry Christmas ma'am." she beamed

"Just Kate."

"Are you enjoying the cruise?" she wondered and I glance to Dad then back at her

"It certainly is a...experience. A really Christmas treat." I answer strained "What about you? Long way from home...Planet Sto?" I glance at Dad who nods in confirmation that I remembered correctly.

"Doesn't feel that different. Spent three years working at the spaceport diner. Travelled all the way here and I'm still waiting on tables." she commented the carried on waiting tables. I smirked slightly.

"I'm hungry. i think i saw a buffet around somewhere." I left him too it .
