(Ok hi this is my first fanfic. :) I hope you oike it! This version of the Doctor and the Companions are mine, but I don't own anything else. I love feedback no matter if it's positive or negative!)
Thalia Tombs, not being able to write another word and having no chance of sleep, decided to take a little walk. The full moon lit her way as she wandered around the neighborhood. She started to get to the part of town that she never went to- it gave her the creeps- but I felt a pull towards that street. There was an empty lot surrounded by trees on her right. As she passed, a screeching, groaning type sound echoed around her. It sort of sounded like a car in trouble. It was late, and unlikely that anyone else would be passing by soon, so she decided to be the Good Samaritan and help out. Turning the corner, all she saw was what looked like a telephone box, but blue. Blue? She thought. Weird. Where did that- The door opened. A tall, spindly man stepped out in a baby blue suit too short for him so Thalia could see his light-up socks (one black with smiley faces, the other with Christmas lights even though it was the middle of June) and a cane on his arm. Behind him came a little red-head led boy, and 8 or 9, with freckles and dimples like she always wanted when she was a little girl. He fluttered about the man, practically radiating with excited energy. "Doctor!" He laughed "where ARE we?" "Earth." The man replied with a grin. "Earth? Bleck. I've seen enough of Earth!" The boy made a face. "Now, Jacob, don't make a fuss. This is England! 2014! New and exciting things! Come on. know this lovely shop down the road-" "But Doctor, it's night time." The boy looked around ans lowered his voice. "The sun doesn't disappear in the future, does it?" "The Doctor" laughed. "No! I must have messed up the time-date... thingy. Any who, let's go!" They set off in Thalia's direction. She dived into a bush until they passed, then after a moment's hesitation, followed. A few times they stopped and the Doctor looked at a shop or something, getting his bearings, and she would duck in a door frame to hide until they moved on. "Jacob." He said after stopping once. "We're being followed." "Followed?" "Yes. Wait." He turned around and stated at Thalia's stoop as if he could see her. "What are we-" "They'll show themselves." The Doctor said patiently. I hesitated. Me? But if course it was me. And if he knows I'm here, no use hiding... I stepped out into the light and he smiled. "There she is!" He sang. "But Doctor... who is she?" Asked Jacob. "Good question. Who are you?" I walked down the street towards them. "I'm... Thalia. Who are you?" I stared him down. "I'm The Doctor. How are you?" "F-fine?" She said, unsure. "Look, I was just following you because-" "Shush" he put up a hand. "Excuse me?" "No, shut up." A few seconds of silence. "Take me to your house. We'll talk there." He turned on his heel and started walking. "My house is this way!" She called. "Quite right." He turned back around and followed her down the street.
