That had pretty much been his plan!  Trying to move right now sounds like a really bad idea!  The sound of the alarm mixed with the horrible wrenching-metal noise of the TARDIS doing something it seems like it's really not supposed to be doing is also super extremely not fun by the way!

Sarah Jane is just saying that it'll probably only be a few more seconds when the video screen goes blank.

Shit!

His phone is probably still recording though - "Sarah Jane I don't know if you can hear me but I can't hear you, the display stopped working - "

He's interrupted by one final particularly horrible lurch, and the sound of screaming metal cuts out.  There's only the VERY - LOUD - ALARM going off now.

Okay time to turn that thing the hell off!

He slaps the shut-up-alarm button.

The klaxon and the flashing red lights both shut off.

None of the other lights come back on, though.

He waits, a second, to see if the terminal lights up again.

Oh shit, oh shit shit shit -

"Hey - hey, can you hear me?"

"Come on, we're here, you're okay, it's over - "

His eyes dart over the controls but there's no point, he can barely see them by the light of his phone and he doesn't know what any of them do -

- please don't let him have killed her -

hey

He freezes.

He felt - something.  He's pretty sure.  He's hoping it's not just wishful thinking.

sorry

to scare you

Please please let whatever he's feeling from her be real

A few lights flick on.  A quiet little hum starts up, something he hadn't realized he couldn't hear anymore.

He gasps in relief, something like a laugh, and almost-smiles, and feels himself tearing up again.

'sokay

you did good

He wipes his eyes and pats the terminal again.  "I'm sorry."

'sokay

rest now

"All right.  I'm gonna - wait a couple minutes - then go see if Sarah Jane's outside.  You don't have to say anything, just keeping you in the loop."

<3

Grin.  Tiny little grin.

He sits down, in the actual seat next to the six o'clock terminal this time, and closes his eyes.
