Fic: Leap in the Dark (PG, 1/2)

Title: Leap in the Dark
Characters/Pairings: Ten, Donna
Rating: PG
Word count: 8,200
Spoilers: Through S3
Summary: The 10th Doctor and Donna crash an unusual party, and discover they aren't the only uninvited guests.
Beta: platypus
Disclaimer: Not mine, obviously.
Author's Notes: This story is not chaptered, but is posted in two parts so as not to break LiveJournal's tiny little head. A link to the second part appears at the end of the first one. Also, I have posted the story's timeline of events, but I don't recommend reading it until after you've finished the story, or you'll spoil yourself for how it works.

Special thanks to peebles for assistance with some of the chemistry in this story, and especially to platypus, who caught logic and flow problems in the narrative I could no longer see after four months of working on it.

Leap in the Dark: Timeline

I could not have written this story without working out its timeline in advance, and platypus suggested other people might be interested in seeing it, too. Again, you may not want to look at this until after reading the story.
