The fire

When I was ten I lost the two most important people in my life, but then I was saved by the most wonderful man, he called himself the Doctor, many called him the Oncoming Storm, but to me he was my superhero and the man I was in love with.

My story starts with a late one night in the winter of 96' when I fire started at my house the fire that took my parents life. I was asleep when it started I would have died if it weren't for my mum calling me telling me to get out of the house. Quickly I jumped out of my bed and put on my slippers opening my bedroom door I saw the blaze of fire right outside, I was frozen on the stop to scare to move.

'Lizzie' mum screamed at me 'you have to leave NOW!'

'Mum, come with me. 'I cried

'No I have to find your dad I'll be fine, just get out Lizzie' my mother then kissed my forehead and quickly ran across the room and then was the last time I saw her.

The next thing I remember I was running downstairs trying to avoid the burning flames, I almost made it to the door when the smoke started to get to much for my lungs, my insides felt like they were burning and my vision was becoming blurred. At that moment I thought I was going to die that when I figure appeared from the flames the mysteries man grabbed on to my hand.

'Run.' He said as he tried to pull me towards the door

'No my parents, they're still upstairs' I screamed at the man trying to get out of his strong grip' I have to help them.'

He bent down and looked into my eyes; although he looked forty his eyes seem so much older.

'There's nothing in can do, it's too late but I can save you now please run.' I silently nodded ad followed him

Once we were outside he wrapped his black leather jacket around me 'It's gonna be okay' he said

That's when I started to break down how could it be okay, I thought

'They're gone aren't they my parents are dead' I managed to say through my sobs. The middle aged man just looked at me and nodded sadly wrapping his arms around me to try and comfort me.

'What's your name sweetie' he asked me

'Um... Elizabeth Adler' I whispered

Well Elizabeth Adler, I'm the Doctor, I have to go now but everything's going to be aright stay strong'

And with that he vanished down the dark street.

The next couple of days were the worst in my life, for three days I was put into foster care while they tried to find someone that I could live with. I hated being there I just wanted my parents back I hadn't spoken I word since I was saved by the Doctor, I was eating probably and I just stayed in the bed they had given me.

On the third day I was told that I was going to be living with my parent's best friends Jackie Tyler as I had no other family to go to. After learning this I was feeling a bit better Jackie always was like a second mum to me and I was always loved going to visit her and Rose my best friend

'Come on love' she said to me after I was dropped off at the flat which was to be my new home. I just looked at her with my red puffy eyes '

'Why don't you go into Rose's room and start to unpack and ill me you some dinner that'll make you feel better. They told me you weren't eating.'

I headed for Rose's room, which was now to be my room and started to unpack the few clothes that the foster home had given me, five minutes later there was a soft knock at the door and entered Rose she stood there for a moment before hugging me tightly

'Lizzie I'm so sorry' she said as I put my head into her neck and started sobbing quietly 'I'm glad you're okay'

'Thanks' I said in a quiet voice 'I just miss them so much Rosie'

'I know but we will look after you now, me and mum will.' She said with a small smile 'you're gonna be my sister now forever.'
