This is a doctor who story I'm writing on the side whilst suffering with writers block on my story 'Time Jumping' it's a little different to the other stories I've read and I hope you like it. It's a Doctor/OC story but not yet and starts with the tenth doctor with a tiny, hardly even there glimpse at nine. It's like a prequel to the actual story which is a romancy one with Eleven that I've decided to post later as a second story.
This chapter is more like a prologue than an actual chapter just saying. It's very jumpy to different episodes and seasons quite quickly and will be quite short I think. But please don't dismiss it.
Please review follow and favourite if you like the story. I do not own anything but my OC's and anything original that you see.
The night was cold, colder than any night had been so far. The bitter temperatures forcing people to wrap up warm and to try and get home as soon as possible. All but one girl. A small girl no older than six years old who was sitting on a swing with tears falling silently down her cheeks as her legs moved backwards and forwards but never leaving the ground.
A strange noise that sounded like a broken machine sounded out for the park where she was sat one and she watched in the distance as a blue box appeared on the other side of the park ad a man came out of that box. Being the curious creature that she was the small red haired girl ran over to the man and looked at he looked up at her with a bright smile on her face. He had been holding a stick like object with a blue end and pointing it at the surrounding area but put it away when he saw me. His smile was one that didn't quite reach his eyes. "Hello. Your out a bit late aren't you" He said. The girl ignored his statement and peered at him again.
"Why are you so sad?" She asked him, taking the man by surprise. He hadn't expected that. "Your smiling but your not happy. That's what I do" she added, making the smile drop from his face slightly. The man in raggedy clothes looked at the small child with wonder. It had been a long time since somebody could see through his facade. That's when he saw the tear tracks on her cheeks, even in the dark.
"Where's you mum and dad? I bet there worrying about you" he said to the child who looked down slightly and started scuffling her shoes.
"My mum and dad went away. They didn't come back" she told him and the mans green eyes softened slightly as he looked at her. "They aren't dead sir. They just didn't want me anymore" she added with a small shrug of her shoulders. "Are you lonely?" She wondered
"Why do you say that?" was the replied and the girl smile, he pale cheeks were slightly chubby but dimples could easily be seen.
"Because your sad and on your own." she told him. "I'm on my own nearly all the time. The other children don't like me very much. They say I'm weird. The care workers tell them I'm not. They say I'm special but I know that's a polite way of saying different. They keep calling the special doctors to talk to me but the man down the road with the big coat told me that it isn't the right doctor. She said I'll know the right doctor when I find him and that he's worth the wait" the girl shrugged.
"So why are you out here then. Are you waiting for your doctor" The man asked her with a smile on his face, inspired to see a young child who has so much understanding for the world. There was wonderment in her eyes that he had seen many a time in people and it never ceased to amaze him.
"No. The other children were being mean and tore up my pictures so I ran away. Nobody really noticed anyway. I like the park. It's beautiful and all the colours are different at night time. The leaves are silver instead of brown and if you look properly you see that the sky isn't actually black. It's a really dark blue. Blue's my favourite colour. But the lights keep getting in the way of the stars. I like making pictures in the stars" the girl said honestly. "Are you still feeling lonely?" She asked the man suddenly and he realised that the small girl was trying to help him by offering her company. That made him smile at her and she smiled back.
"Whats your name?" He asked her, looking into her bright blue eyes.
"Penelope Faye"
