Prologue

Lost. Tumbling through space.

That's what it feels like.

I know for a fact that there is solid ground beneath my feet, but it doesn't stop me from falling.

Perhaps this is what the TARDIS feels like, swirling through dimensions, trying to find steady land to finally stop the spinning.

To be steady and safe, ready to move in one direction.

It's been almost three years since you've left me, Doctor. Three whole years that I've spent struggling through this other world, blind, and alone.

You are not the only one traveling alone anymore. I am now the lone wolf, trying desperately to find some sense in this new place.

Somewhere I belong.

I am alone because you made me alone.

And so I keep searching.

How am I to adapt to these new surroundings after touching the stars? How am I to sit down at a restaurant when I know I don't belong?

How am I to go back to my normal life?

There are days I wish I hadn't met you. I had a happy mundane life. But you had to look at me, didn't you? You had to see my potential, you had to believe in me.

And because of your actions, I must live my life alone.

And so I keep searching.
