Not Everything Is As It Seems

Prologue-y Introduction Thing

When you run with the Doctor, it's as though time is standing still. When he turns, to make sure your following, and gives you that smile, nobody could ever resist but to smile back at him. He makes the world seem like a better place, even if your running from people who are trying to kill you. He makes it seem less dull, more full of good, as though you weren't having to blow up a spaceship full of deadly - but alive - aliens.

He makes you feel better, he fixes you in the ways you didn't even realise you needed fixing. He never upsets you; never intentionally. But, that day always comes. The day where he has no choice but to leave you behind. And it breaks his heart, every single time. Because, he doesn't want to leave his only family behind. He doesn't want to ditch them when they need him the most. But, he has to. He just has to.

I grew up watching him running, running with various companions on spaceships and planets that no one before had dared to dream were real. I grew up seeing him in dangerous situations and just wishing, with all my might, that the man that everyone can't help but love gets out of there alive. And he always does, always did, because it was a TV show.

Then the cracks came. Little ones at first, ones that no one noticed. But, the universe was splintering slowly, bit by bit. Because something had fallen through them, something that wasn't supposed to, and the universe would only be fine when that thing returned.

I didn't know it was me. I had no clue. Then The Woman came, with her evil grin and pulled me back through. Then my adventures really started. Because, I didn't know that what we knew as a TV show was as far from the truth as possible. How was I to know?

All I know is that the things I know are wrong, and not everything is as it seems.

HELLO!

LobocCam here.

Welcome to my first ever published story. Well, I say published story, it's not even finished yet. Just an intro-thingy...

ANYWAY, thanks for dropping by! I know, I know, a LOT of Doctor/OC stories use this story line; Girl from parallel universe gets pulled into Whoniverse, flits around said Doctor's personal timeline, they fall in love, have many babies, blah, blah, blah. Okay, maybe the last one is a lie, but ohwells. This one, however, has a bit of an underlying difference; River Song isn't in it.

OKAY, that's a bit of a lie. A LOT of a lie, but you'll understand later on in the story what the hell I'm talking about. You may not like it, but the idea came to me one night over a tub of Ben and Jerry's. You can't just dismiss an idea that came to you over a tub of cookie dough goodness, can you? It's been bothering me for a while now, and I wanna see how well my writing is perceived throughout the wibbly-wobbly-world-wide-web. :-)

I hope this story gets you going (not in that way, but, you know, in the doctor/female OC feels kinda way)

I hope my spelling, punctuation and grammar (or, as I'll probably refer to them as from now on, SPaG) is fine. Spelling has never been my strong point. Le sigh... The woes of a young woman writer.

Thank you,

LobocCam
