The red headed girl's brows were furrowed as she sat at a desk with a pen in hand, writing her paper on the History of the great and bountiful human empire. Humans. They were ever so dull, weren't they? She didn't even look up as her best friend entered her room, uninvited. He always did that.

"Hey, Rina," When Rina did not reply, the young Time Lord repeated, "Hey, Rina, Rina," The aforementioned girl only ignored him, a small smirk on his face, the dark haired boy reached forward, grabbing her glasses from where they perched at the end of her nose and said, "Rina!"

Rina looked up sharply as she noticed the absence of the sleek spectacles and scowled, "Give me back my glasses!"

"Hmmm," The boy said thoughtfully, "how about no," he was grinning now. The cheek of him!

"Theta!"

"You don't even need them," Theta told her, rolling his eyes.

"Yes I do. They help me think. Now give them back,"

"You haven't even asked me what I want,"

"Fine. What do you want?" She asked, as she pouted, her nose crinkled up and the sprinkling of freckles over her nose becoming more visible.

"There, now that wasn't too hard. I was going to ask if you were going to that party tonight, the one Ion is holding. She's graduating you know,"

"I can't. As you can see, I'm busy,"

"Doing what?"

"What do you think? I have that paper for the professor to do,"

"That's not due in until two weeks! Come on, what's more important, doing something that can easily be done tomorrow, or actually having fun for once in your life,"

"This is fun,"

Theta was now standing in front of the desk, his arms crossed, "Fun? That? You have got to be joking. Please?"

"No,"

"Pretty Please?"

"No,"

Rolling his eyes, Theta gave in, "fine. But just so you know, you're missing out all the fun,"

"Ok, bye. Glasses now,"

"Here,"

And with that, Theta chucked the glasses down on the desk and stormed out of the room. This was a regular occurrence with those two. They had been best friends ever since they were small, even before they had entered the academy together. The main thing that was pushing them apart was the difference in personality. Rina always studied. She never put off 'till tomorrow what she could do today. For Theta, it was all about having fun, going on adventures. He hardly ever paid attention to his studies.

Despite this, Rina cared for the other Time Lord deeply, probably deeper than she would ever admit. She tried her best not to annoy him too much, but with their drastically different priorities, it was hard not to do. Rina leaned back in her chair and sighed. Picking up the glasses from where they had been thrown, she replaced them, eying the paper.

She just could not forsake her education, even for the sake of Theta. She was the daughter of the current President, and had high ambitions. She just didn't have time for games, like when they were younger.

Two hours later, Rina dropped her pen on the desk with a sigh. The paper was complete. Running a hand through her hair which was absent of its customary bun, she fingered the pendant hanging from her neck, which Theta had given her all those years ago, when she turned ten. That was almost one-hundred years ago. Rina was now one-hundred and two, and the Doctor one-hundred and three.

The pendant itself was a golden colour, about twice the size of her eye. It was very beautiful, and Rina hardly took it off. Theta really was a good friend. Though she would never admit it, the Time Lady's feelings ran a lot deeper than friendship. Not out loud, at least.

Standing, Rina stretched, groaning as the muscles she hadn't used for three hours stretched. Brushing down her red robe, with her name embroidered into the right side in Galifreyan, she headed for the door. Perhaps she had been too harsh of Theta earlier. If it made him happy, she would join him at that party he was talking about. They hardly ever spent time out of classes together anymore.

An hour later, Rina ran back into the room on the verge of tears. How dare he? Ripping of the pendant, she threw it angrily onto her bed, before sliding down the door and sobbing into her hands.

This was the last day of their friendship. She was never again seen wearing the pendant. Of course, she wore it every day, but under her robes. Theta was confused the next morning when Rina didn't even speak to him, and was cold with him. He didn't find out what it was he had done for several hundred years.

While Theta, who later became known as the Doctor, went on to travel the universe in the Type 40 TARDIS he stole, Rina, who refused to be known by that name, insisting instead to be called by her full name, Secarina, went on to further her education. She became known as the Scholar as her official title.

When she was given the name of Scholar, Secarina regenerated for the first time, as her first body carried too many reminders of the Doctor. She became dark skinned with dark hair, though with the same eyes. However, having the hint of rebellion in her, she cut her hair short in a messy haircut, though she retained her previous eye colour.

Near the end of her second incarnation, despite her young age and due to her intelligence, Secarina joined the high council.

When in her third regeneration, she is elected president for a term, though is more laid back than her previous selves. After she served her term, much to her displeasure, she was sent to find the Doctor and have him help her search for a missing Time Lord.

This was where her real journey began…

AN: I hope you all like my new fanfic, I haven't done a Doctor who one before. I know that Secarina overreacted, but she was still practically a child, and she is very stubborn. Someone can easily make a childish decision and hold on to it way past the point where they know, deep down, that they are being childish and there is no point in continuing. Especially if your pride gets in the way of admitting you are wrong.
