Sadly don't own any of the Doctors or his companions! I only own my OC's
I wake up on a Sunday morning and stretch my arms as I yawn. I get up and grab a pair of black skinny jeans and a light long sleeve white top that says love in purple letters. I get a shower and quickly dry my hair and curl my chestnut brown hair, after doing light make up I grab my lace up black boots and white beanie.
"Are you ready Dani?" I hear my mom shout from the living room.
She was waiting along with my step dad and younger niece, they were by the door. I nod my head and grab my purse and phone. We start our half hour journey to my step sisters house. I put in my ear buds and ignore the world and listen to music as we take the back roads. I take a double take as we pass a field, and I nearly choke on air. I see a old blue 1960's police box, not just any police box. It looked exactly like the TARDIS, from my favorite fandom, Doctor who. I see the door open as we pass and out steps an older man with gray hair and a dark suit. He doesn't have a tie on or a bow tie, but the inner lining of his jacket was red. Two other females step from inside the box as we come to a stop light. One has chestnut brown hair and was wearing black skinny jeans, a white and grey long sleeve top that has the word love in purple writing. Plus it she has a white beanie and the same purse I did. I feel my eyes widen as I see that its me! The next female to exit the TARDIS I saw was wearing a similar outfit except her shirt was red and black and she had a black purse. I er well I guess a future me was standing next to both the 12th Doctor and Clara Oswald. But how, when, where, why? All of those questions were swimming through my head as I felt the car go forward again. Just as we started I faintly herd the TARDIS engines in the distance and I saw the box had disappeared. Mom turns around and looks at me.
"Did your phone go off, I herd that strange noise."
I just give her a fake smile and nod my head. I couldn't tell her that it was the actual TARDIS, she would think I was nuts, so would the rest of my family. My dad already thinks I'm to obsessed with Doctor Who, this would give him an excuse to call me crazy some more.
Later that night as we are on our way home I keep looking out the window. Looking for any trace of the magical blue box that I've come to love so much. I frown as we get almost back home and I haven't seen a single flash of TARDIS blue anywhere. We get home and I just shake my head.
"It wasn't anything, you just fell asleep on the way to Jessica's, it was a realistic dream nothing more, nothing less." I chant to myself as I walk into my room.
I notice the light to my closet was on so I open the door and step into turn it off. I gasp at what I see, and its not the inside of my closet. "Ah there you are, the Doctor's been looking for ya, he said, you said this was going to happen soon." I blink confused at the woman in front of me, I was standing by the doors of the TARDIS, staring at Clara Oswald. She smiles at me before opening her arms. "Come here you!" She pulls me into her arms and I gladly return the hug.
"Best dream ever!" I say looking around the interior of the TARDIS.
"What do you mean dream? This is not a dream, this is all real."
I look at Clara with a raised eyebrow as a Scottish voice floats around the room suddenly. "Remember Clara this is the very beginning for our wonderful Dani."
I hear footsteps echo down to the main floor and see the 12th Doctor. I nearly fan girl as I see the Doctor stand in front of me. I want to hug him, but I know this him isn't really into hugging, dream or not I'm not going to make him uncomfortable. The Doctor is smiling at me so is Clara. I look between him and her slightly confused. "What do you mean, "the very beginning"?" They look at each other and the Doctor motions for me to follow him up to where the console is. I look around in amazement at the whole room. "Okay I've always wanted to say this, it's bigger on the inside!" I then lightly touch the console and feel a warm welcoming hum from under my fingers. "She is beautiful."
The lights flash once and I see the Doctor watching this with a fond expression on his face. "Thank you my angel." I look around as I hear Idris in my head, I look at the Doctor with a confused expression.
"We slipped through time and space and ended up here, as you know it was easy to go to a different dimension when the Time Lords were around. You don't remember this just yet but when the Time War happened, you were there." The Doctor is starting to sound upset as he recalls the last great Time War. "Ever since then you've been jumping around in my time stream, we don't know why, or what happened to make this occur, all we do know is that you were sent to this dimension. This is when you go back, you told me this was going to happen when I was in this incarnation. But once you leave this dimension you can never return." He stops and I see him looking at me for a response of some sort.
"What are you saying Doctor? That somehow I'm a Time Lord or lady, that somehow got sent to another dimension where you are a tv show. I don't understand I remember a full life here!" I say at the end my voice slightly desperate for answers. The Doctor pulls out a fob watch with Gallifreyan writing on the back, its silver and looks similar to the Doctors watch.
"You know what this watch is, what lies within the watch is a Time Lords conciseness. This is your watch my dear Dani you gave it to me for safe keeping. For when you came here." The Doctor explains as he gently slips the watch around my neck. I turn so I can look at him again, he does look exactly like Peter Capaldi.
"I'm a Time Lady?" I ask still not quiet believing him, still completely shocked at the same time.
"Yes, you are we are the last of the Time Lords, you and I. Are you going to come with me?" I feel my heart and stomach flip, those are words any whovian wants to hear from the Doctor. Somehow the Doctor knows me, and I jump around in his time line, like River does. I could leave this life behind me and go on adventures and live the life I've always dreamed of. Or I can break both his hearts and stay in this mundane life and never get this opportunity again. I look at both the Doctor and Clara, they are looking at me, I see a slightly anxious look in the Doctors eyes. I look at the TARDIS doors then back to them."Yes, I will come with you!"
Clara cheers and pulls me into a hug! "YES I knew you would say yes!" She says as we pull apart.
The next thing startled me. The Doctor pulls me into his arms and spins me around, I let out a surprised squeak as my feet leave the ground. "Oh I'm so happy!" He says while putting me down.
"Welcome home my angel." I look around again and glance at the ceiling.
"I can hear the TARDIS, in my head. How?" I ask looking at the Doctor for an explanation.
"Telepathic connection, you and her are connected, she will/ would do anything to protect you." The Doctor says that fond smile back on his face.
I nod my head with a small smile. "Can I get a few things before we take off?"
He nods his head and I go to the doors. I step inside my room which consists of a black framed queen sized bed, with a galaxy quilt and my TARDIS blanket on top. Along with some DW pillows and a couple galaxy ones. I also have a TARDIS blue desk with my laptop on top and a white swivel chair. The walls are painted TARDIS blue, black, and white. The fourth wall is galaxy themed. I have drawings on the walls of Doctor who and some random things. Clara and the Doctor walk in from the TARDIS and into my room. I blush as the Doctor walks up to one of the drawings, its of me and his third incarnation with Jo and Alistair, I have captain Yates and Harry in the back photo bombing the three of us. The TARDIS is also in the background. I grab a few personal items, like my collection of sonic screwdrivers and drawing supplies. I grab my DW blanket from my bed and throw them into my tribal print backpack. I sigh looking around the room knowing I'm leaving it behind for good. "You ready?" The Doctor asks from beside me.
"Yes, id say goodbye to people, but I doubt that anyone would notice I was gone, I'm not that important." The last part I say in a whisper. I momentarily forgot how good a Time Lord's hearing is, because I feel a hand go under my chin.
The Doctor makes me look into his light blue eyes. "Now you listen to me, you are my brilliant and wonderful Dani ,you are important, you are the most important person in my life." I give him a smile and he smiles in return. He leads me back into the TARDIS and I set my bag on a chair.
"Doctor?" He looks up from putting something into the console. "I want to surprise my past self if that's alright. She won't get to interact with me, in fact it happened earlier today for me." I tell him where and when and I smile madly as I hear the engines start. The ride is a little bumpy but a few seconds later we land. The Doctor steps out first then I follow him. Last Clara steps out and I see past me looking at the three of us with wide eyes. I just smirk and point at my past self. "I saw the three of us, on the way home I kept looking for any trace of the TARDIS all the way home." I say with a small laugh. "Alright we can go now Doctor." We get back in the TARDIS and he puts coordinates in the console. He pauses at the hand break and looks at me and motions for me to go to him. I look at Clara and we both shrug as I walk to him.
"Are you really sure about this, like I said you cannot ever return here." I smile at him and put my hand on the lever. I look directly into his eyes and pull it down.
"Geronimo!" The TARDIS starts up and throws us into the Time Vortex sending us to their er well my dimension. Leaving my old life behind me. The TARDIS shakes and shutters as we enter through the crack in the time vortex. All three of us fall to the floor as everything calms down. "Whoa! Everyone alright?" I ask sitting up.
"Yep nothings broken." Clara responds to me.
"What about you Doctor?"
I see a hand appear in front of me and I take it. "I'm fine, I'm always fine." I just roll my eyes as I stand up.
"I do have a question, you say that I jump around in your time stream, does that mean even the first you? Plus do we get a warning before I just poof away?"
The Doctor nods his head before he speaks. "Yes, you've been around my entire life. Sometimes we get a warning others we do not." I frown some at this information but perk up when I realize I get to see all 12 of him well technically 13 including the war Doctor.
"So is the pool really in the library?" I ask after a few seconds of silence. The Doctor just simply takes my hand and leads me down some steps. We start to go down this hall when I feel this odd sensation. I white light start to form around me and I gasp. This makes the Doctor stop and look at me, his smile fades into a sad expression. "Doctor what's going on, explain!" I say as my head starts to get fuzzy.
"You're going to another part in my time stream now. Its going to be okay, I promise you love." I'm scared beyond belief right now as I close my eyes. I open them again as I feel the Doctor's hand is no longer in mine.
I'm in the TARDIS, judging by the look of the TARDIS desk top it's the Doctors fourth self. The TARDIS doors open and in steps the fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith. The Doctor spots me and immediately I spot that characteristic wide eyed smile. "DANI!" He says pulling me into his arms and he spins me around. He sets me down and I just look at him confused and scared.
"Doctor how am I doing this, explain!" I demand and I push back from him.
"What do you mean my dear?" He question a concerned look on his face.
"How can I be with a future you, then appear with this you?"
The Doctor places a light hand on my shoulder. "We don't know, but I'm doing my best to figure it out. How many times have you done that?"
"Once." I see a sad look cross his face then its gone in a blink of an eye.
"Then it's the very beginning for you." I let out a sigh as I look at Sarah. I smile and give her a hug. "Oh I've always wanted to meet you Sarah Jane!"
She returns the hug just as tight and I hear her laugh. "Well we're best friends you and I."
I smile at her even wider. "I think I can deal with jumping about as long as I get to see my bestie then." I notice how the doctor is looking at us with a sad smile. Well he's looking in our direction but his eyes are on me. "Are you alright Doctor?" I ask suddenly breaking him out of his trance.
"Yes, I'm quiet alright." He then steps towards us and pulls out a small bag. "Jelly baby?"
I smile and I take a red one and pop it in my mouth. "Wow those are good! I've never had one before." The Doctor chuckles and gives me three more. He then puts them away and starts to put stuff into the console.
"Where are we heading Doctor?" Sarah asks him.
"Oh I was thinking we could go to Metrobilious 3." I take in what Sarah is wearing and I know where we are heading, and it's not Metrobilious 3. Sarah is wearing her red and white stripped overalls. She wears those in the hand of fear episode.
