One on one? (Closed!)

"Everything ends sometime, I try not to get very sentimental. Now let's go." the Doctor said.

He kept running, his eyes wide. He had to see for himself.

Alison ran after Will. The Doctor sighed. "Humans these days." he grumbled, heading back into the TARDIS.

He knew the way to camp, even if the landmarks were different. His father had always told him the light would lead him home. He stumbles a little, but keeps going, his breathing uneven and quick.

"Will, this is an entirely different planet. I'm sorry." Alison said, running up to him.

He shakes his head, "Dad always said to follow the light!" He yells back. "It's how I found camp!" There! He saw a faint golden trail.

"Will, come back. Please." Alison said

Will keeps running, his eyes on the shimmering gold line. His heart is racing wildly in his chest.

Alison catches up to Will, pulling him back. "Listen, this is irrational behaviour! I'm surprised you would even…. just…." she trailed off, unsure of what she was even going to say.

His eyes are wide as he points forward. The barrier was gone, the camp exposed to the world. It was in ruins, completely torn down. He wrenches out of her grip and stumbles towards the camp, still in denial.

"Will…."

"No… nononono." He rushes towards the Apollo cabin, slamming the crumbling door open. He collapses, shaking his head.

"Will, we need to go." Alison said.

"I…" His eyes shut as silent tears roll down his face. "No…"

"Will, I'm sorry. But think about it, the camp was destroyed centuries after you died, you can still live your life there, you don't need to worry about anything." she said.

"You… you don't understand. This was a safe place for Halfbloods. Our kind will go extinct because we're what keeps the gods alive…" He whispers.

"Who knows? Maybe it was rebuilt somewhere else?" Alison offered. "But we really should be going either way."

Will glances down, "A-Alright…" He says softly. He stops, seeing a glimmer in the ground. A necklace. A necklace he recognized. It was an Apollo heirloom.

"What is it?" Alison asked. "Did you find anything?"

"An heirloom." He says softly. He wipes the dirt off. "It's given to the head camper at the beginning of their job." he says quietly.

"Oh. Will, I do think we should go now."

"Yeah… Yeah… I'm coming." he returns to her side, glancing sadly at the camp.

Alison and Will returned to the TARDIS. "Well, I guess it's goodbye now." Alison said. "I've gotten the exact coordinates, just five minutes after we left your camp." the Doctor said, not looking up from the console.

Will nods and sits down, not saying anything.

"Hmm…. weather readings say heavy rain, hail, lightning, thunder, tornadoes, sea monsters, and snow. Alison, go fetch my umbrella will you? It's probably in the zeppelin hanger." the Doctor said.

He stares at the Doctor. "You're kidding, right?"

"No, I'm not. Especially not kidding about the sea monsters." he said. Alison returned with the umbrella and handed it to the Doctor.

He glances at Alison. "Please tell me this is a joke."

"He doesn't tell jokes, believe me, I know." she said.

He sighs. "When do I ever get a break?"
