When I step out the door... the jungle is alive...
Location: Some distant planet that no one bothered to name...
Characters: Arthur Dent & Barbara Wright (and a surprise guest)
Warnings: Mild violence and close calls
As Arthur stepped out of the TARDIS and noticed that their surroundings were relatively like he had requested to the Doctor, he seemed mostly pleased. The sun shone high in the sky and a pair of moons sat large over the ocean. It was slightly chillier than he had wished, but perhaps it was just from the waterfall ahead of them. The terrain was rocky, light purple in color, almost quarry like as it sloped away forming a beach. The river came from a high cliff, stone fading from purple into a deep red. Lush green trees stood tall at the top of it. To their right, cracks in the cliff-side formed several caverns and caves, sea and river water meeting at its floors. Down the beach, towards the left, rocky hills formed a breaker, sparse trees that looked rather like thin, white feathers dotted the rocks. Behind the small trees, dark greens and browns of a forest, and in the distance, perhaps a whole day's journey away was a small city, the white domed tops of buildings peaking over the tree line.
The air didn't smell entirely salty, there was a sweetness to it, though there didn't seem to be many flowers around at all.
"Well... It's not exactly where I had in mind, but it's quite nice." Arthur pushed his sunglasses onto his head. It wasn't bright enough for them. He pointed towards the city, "If the Doctor's put us where he promised, that should be the resort. I thought it might be closer to the beach.."
