I was assigned to keep watch on a new case in our mental institution a few days ago. The name of the patient is Amelia Jessica Pond, a name that has been on the asylum watch for years now.

12 years ago, almost exactly actually. It all started in April of 1996, on or very near Easter. She went running to her aunt (the strange child doesn't even recognize her parents, so now she lives with her aunt.) telling her of a strange man who came to her in the night. After demanding the entire story, the aunt found that the details of the story made no sense. The shed was completely intact, the house showed no signs that the girl had left, or a man had entered. The kitchen was still the way the aunt had left it the evening before. She marked it away as an active imagination, but then it continued into the girls teenage years and even her young adult life. The fact is that she constantly talks about her "Doctor" or her "Raggedy-man". The boy- Rory- her friend has many stories on it as well, ones she tells him; of a blue box and a the spaceman, the one that fixes the crack on her wall. It's all very odd, but nobody really worried about it until a little while ago.

She had a sort of attack. She was found in her house, huddled against a radiator, looking at the wall across the hall in fear. When she was touched though, she half screamed and was very confused at where she was. She had thought she was on the hospital roof...

She had thought she was with the man again- the Doctor- who had come back for her after 12 years. It was the nurse Rory Williams who told us, her boyfriend. He works at a different hospital, not the psychiatric hospital like I do. lucky. I suppose my job is always an... interesting adventure though.

Oh I've got to go, a patient had an attack- knocked over the cart of pills, they spilled them everywhere. I'm on sweeping duty. Yeah...
