The Sarah Jane adventures fan fiction original
Sarah Jane Smith, a proud ex companion of the famous time traveller the nine hundred year old time lord the Doctor. Now, as time had passed she had somewhat settled herself down in a house in Ealing. Her extraterrestrial search never died, and now living on Earth as a proud citizen she roams the country seeking any activity that cannot be explained by modern day science. With help of her adopted son, a genetically modified super human created for evils by a race called the Bane named Luke and his two friends Clyde and Rani, the three work hard to save the lives of every day human beings without ever being exposed.
It was just a usual day for the extraterrestrial fighting group of close friends, circled around a bomb entirely made from alien technology. "What do we do?" Rani urged, pointing at the countdown showing only two more minutes to go. "That thing is gonna blow!" Clyde said disorientated, circling on the spot in frustration and fright. Luke took the moment to step forward, opening up a small flap on the side of the bomb. Inside was a complex set of touch sensitive keys in an alien language. "Mr Smith taught me about this sort of stuff." Luke informed them, as he put his hands on the keys and typed at a fast pace, his fingers blurring as time went on.
"Ten seconds to go!" Rani screeched, tapping the small screen presenting the countdown.
"Hang on..." Luke said, pressing two more buttons and then one that resembled an 'enter' key. The countdown stopped at 0:02 promptly.
The group yelled out their victory giving each other high fives and a group hug before Rani pulled away, her eyes darting around the large metallic abandoned factory. "Where's Sarah Jane?"
Everyone froze, their legs put into motion as they ran down the large halls. Their footsteps echoed around the silent halls, the metallic groans of doors aged with years of disuse. The noises rang in their ears as their shouts were mixed with the noises, "Sarah Jane?" they called.
Sarah Jane had her alien life scanner protruding from her wrist, it was beeping and flashing in sign of close alien life forms, but she couldn't find him. She knew who he was, he was a tall cloaked figure, she never saw his face, but she knew that whatever was hidden behind the shrouded darkness was evil. Suddenly as she turned the corner, she saw a flash of light. She smiled, spinning to confront the creature. She gasped in surprise to see a girl around Rani, Clyde and Luke's age standing in front of her. She was blonde, her eyes a deep dark blue. Her hair hugged her around her shoulders in waves of perfection. She wore a short sleeved white linen crumpled shirt buttoned up down the middle and a pair of light blue tattered skinny jeans. She also wore a pair of black converse comfortably on her feet.
The two stared at each other, not one lifting their gaze from the other. The girl's wide innocent eyes made it hard for Sarah Jane to suspect her of anything. "Who are you?" she asked, trying to seem friendly. The girl looked nervous and she bit her lip trying hard not to say a word. "My name..." she began, looking at Sarah Jane as if she didn't trust her. "My name is Pandora Naflink." She held out her pale hand to shake Sarah Jane's. Sarah Jane smiled quaintly and accepted it.
She took her by the shoulders and looked into her innocent eyes, "Why are you here alone?" Sarah Jane asked bemused.
Pandora shrugged, her hair bouncing along her shoulders as she did so. "Curious." She said, flashing a cocky grin. "What about you Sarah Jane?"
Sarah Jane's face went pale as her eyes widened upon the girl, "how did you know my name?"
Pandora froze, her eyes darting away, "I heard some kids calling a female name I guessed it must have been you."
"The children!" Sarah Jane breathed, "They must be worried sick, I need to get back to them."
Pandora rolled her eyes and went to turn around, "Well that's nice see your around."
"Whoa, you're not going anywhere!" Sarah Jane grinned, taking the girl's right shoulder in her highly capable grip. "I'm going to take you back to your parents; you shouldn't be hanging around in abandoned factories alone."
Pandora opened her mouth to say something, but promptly snapped it shut before she could speak a word. "You're totally right!" She cried, walking alongside Sarah Jane as she guided her to the frantic calls of her name.
Sarah Jane appeared around a large stack of labelled crates covered in cobwebs from never being shipped and never being opened. The kids were talking amongst each other in worried tones. "Mum!" Luke yelled being the first to notice her.
"Sarah Jane, we thought you'd been kidnapped!" Rani said, holding her hand to her chest in relief.
Clyde rolled his eyes, "and you tell us to be careful." He smirked, following the others to Sarah Jane for a group hug. Rani was the first to notice Pandora, her eyes steadying as she got to her strange blue eyes. Rani couldn't put her finger on it, but the girl looked different from any kid from her school, almost... shining, like something was pulsing out her body. "Who is that?" Rani said, trying hard not to sound too rude.
"Oh," Sarah Jane said breezily. "Kids this is Pandora, Pandora this is Rani, Clyde and my son Luke." She said running her arm around Luke's shoulder.
"Pleased to meet you all." Pandora said, her eyes locking on to each of the children, scanning them with a very pleasant smile plastered on her face.
"Not to be rude or anything, but why the hell is she with you?" Clyde asked.
Sarah Jane glared at Clyde and then looked at Pandora, "she was hanging out here alone, I'm going to drop her off home, and we all know how dangerous these places are for kids." She said nodding slightly so the kids understood.
"I can take care of myself." Pandora muttered, looking away.
"Well, it would put my mind at rest knowing you were safe, I don't want something to happen to you knowing I could have stopped it." Sarah Jane said trying to smile though through the circumstances it was very hard. "So do you live far from here?"
Pandora took in a deep breath, "I'm not really from here, look I can get home on my own." And before Sarah Jane could grab her, Pandora was already making a hurried exit from the factory. Sarah Jane ran after her with the kids by her heels, Pandora was only two feet in front and as she turned the corner Sarah Jane was positive she could catch up. But, strangely as they turned the corner moments later Pandora had vanished. No turns for her to have taken no objects for her to have hidden behind. She had vanished.
The group walked down the hall hesitantly. "That's impossible!" Luke exclaimed, rubbing his head confused. Clyde and Rani went further down to find nothing. "I can't believe this; we weren't imagining her were we?" Clyde asked, scrunching up his nose at the thought. Sarah Jane shook her head, "I don't know what just happened but I know we didn't all imagine it." She said dryly.
"What if she's still in here, should we keep looking?" Rani asked, pressing her hands against the walls for any secret passages. Sarah Jane shook her head quickly and pointed her hand to the other side of the room, "It's getting late, I should really get you all home." She grinned leading the way out of the factory.
The car ride was silent. No one spoke, everyone was deep in thought. The mysterious little girl that disappeared into thin air. Rani kept shaking her head, coming closer to the conclusion that she was in fact going insane. Clyde was just staring out the window vacantly, and Luke was coming up with possible solutions using any logic he knew for a girl to have disappeared into thin air. Sarah Jane was the only one remotely worried about it being a school night.
They pulled up in Sarah Jane's drive having dropped Clyde home previously. Rani climbed out and gave her goodbyes to Sarah Jane and Luke before jogging across the road and getting a very large greeting from her worried sick mother. Luke smirked as Rani was almost suffocated by her mother's arms and dragged inside for a more thorough questioning of where she had been. Sarah Jane rolled her eyes and motioned for Luke to follow her inside. As the two entered Sarah Jane grinned at Luke. "You should brush your teeth and go to bed, I'll be in later to say goodnight."
Luke nodded quickly and made a hurried exit up the stairs. Sarah Jane was left alone in the hallway with nothing but thought to keep her company. For a split second she considered to go up to the attic and inform Mr Smith, their Xylock alien super computer about the disappearance of the girl. Perhaps she could get readings from him... But she thought better of it. It was getting late and she too felt the weight of the lack of sleep pushing on her shoulders.
With one last glance to the ceiling, she too walked up the stairs readying herself for bed.
