This is it! The start of season 2! I tried to make it stand alone so you don't need to have read the first season to ready this. All you need to know is that the Doctor is stuck on earth looking for his TARDIS in Washington and he looks like a teenager. Oh yeah, he got shot in his leg so now he needs a cane to walk. Anyway, enjoy the first chapter of a brand new season for The 15th Doctor! (For a little bit, I'll accept OC's for students and teachers. Thanks!
The school counselor glances over the decorations on her wall. She was waiting for her last UCF to show up for assignment. UCF stood for Upperclassmen Friend. All the juniors and seniors had been given freshmen students that had just moved to the new district and signed up to get a buddy. But the only sophomore apart of the program hadn't showed up yet.
'She didn't forget did she?' The counselor thought to herself. Then she shrugged off the thought.
'No way, she was so excited about this. I just hope she's ok with the change.' She thought to herself.
Suddenly, interrupting her thoughts, there was a knock on the door. The counselor looked up with hope and spoke towards the door.
"Come in." She stated. The door swung open slowly and a familiar face showed up on the other side. The counselor sighed in relief.
"Hi! So sorry that I'm late. I wanted to say hi to all my new teachers!" Said the girl that just entered. The counselor couldn't help but smile.
"You know, Chloe, I don't think anyone else in this school is as enthusiastic about the new school year as you." The counselor said happily.
Chloe beamed at the compliment. Chloe was a taller girl. She had long blonde hair that reached to a couple inches down her back. She had bright blue eyes and light pink lips. She currently sported a purple tank top with shorts that went down to the middle of her thighs. Her shoes were light blue with white laces. Her face had a look that seemed naturally happy.
"Thank you! I'm so excited for the new year! How was your summer?" She asked, showing genuine interest in what the counselor said.
"It was pretty good, thanks for asking. How was yours?" The counselor asked back.
"It was great! My dad and I went to Baton Rouge." She said. Her voice seemed to get higher while reflecting the good memories.
"That's great!" The counselor said.
"So who's the freshman I get to help?" She asked. The counselor lost a bit of her enthusiasm.
"Well, all the freshmen that wanted buddies already have one." She stated. Chloe lost a bit of enthusiasm.
"Oh? Really?" She asked. The counselor nodded sadly.
"Yeah, but since you signed up, we have someone for you." The counselor said. Chloe seemed a bit confused.
"I thought all the freshmen that wanted buddies had one." She pointed out. The counselor nodded.
"Well, he's not exactly a freshmen." The counselor said. Chloe was a bit surprised.
"I thought the program was only for freshmen." Chloe stated.
"Yes, this isn't exactly within the program. He's another sophomore." The counselor explained.
"Really? Did he just move here?" Chloe asked.
"Yeah, but he hasn't exactly had the best time with the other classmates. He was made fun of almost straight away." The counselor said. Chloe realized how serious it must be as they were only a couple hours into the first day.
"Well, excuse me for asking, but is there something specific about him that they're making fun of?" She asked.
"He, needs a cane to walk. A lot of the other kids think he's faking or making fun of people with disability." The counselor explained.
"Oh no! That's terrible!" Chloe said. The counselor nodded.
"That's why we want you to become friends with him." The counselor stated. Chloe nodded almost immediately.
"Oh of course! Did he ask for a buddy?" She asked. The counselor shook her head.
"No. We just want you to be a friend to him. As far as we're concerned, he has none." She said. Chloe nodded.
"Definitely. What's his name?" Chloe asked. The counselor hesitated.
"He hasn't given us one." She said. Chloe was surprised at the answer.
"What?" She asked.
"He keeps calling himself The Doctor. We asked him for his real name on the sign up sheet but that's he gave us." The counselor said. Chloe wondered why he wouldn't give a name for himself. Then she decided to change the subject.
"Do you have a picture of him, so I can find him?" Chloe asked. The counselor nodded and passed over a picture.
It was a full body picture. The boy had brown hair that was kinda messy. He was sporting a dark denim jacket with a shirt that had a bunch of circles on in arranged in a weird order. He also had jeans, despite the warm weather outside. He had dark blue tennis shoes.
There were two things that stuck out to Chloe. The first thing was a long black cane in his hand that had a silver rubber end. The other thing was the expression on his face. He wasn't smiling, not by a long shot. He looked sad. Chloe looked at it for a while, then took the picture. She looked at the counselor.
"Thank you. I'll find him. It's lunch time so I should find him easily." Chloe said. The counselor nodded.
"Good luck." She said as Chloe walked to the door. She looked back at her for a second and then left the room.
Chloe walked down the hallway with a very upbeat posture. She either waved or said hi to everyone she passed. Sometimes she got a response and other times she got a weird look. But most of the guys were looking at her with a flirty smile. Chloe was a very attractive person after all. But she didn't notice the guys and kept walking.
Outside the doors to the cafeteria there was a group of guys next to each other holding a long stick. Chloe looked at her picture of 'The Doctor' and back to the group of guys. They were definitely holding the same cane as he had in the picture. The Doctor wasn't in this group. Chloe walked over.
"Hey, where did you get that?" She asked. They looked over and one guy walked over. He was a lot taller than her.
"Listen CC, this doesn't concern you." He said with a smile. Chloe looked at him annoyed. She hated the name CC. She quickly grabbed the cane successfully and tried to pull it away. But the guy was holding onto it firmly.
"Give it to me." She said, trying to be intimidating. She knew she failed when when he saw the look on his face.
"Why do you want this so bad?" He asked. Chloe didn't answer him, she just pulled it out of his hands. Chloe wondered whether it was because of her strength or if he let her take it.
"You shouldn't bully people like that." She said to him. She began to walk away before the guy stopped her. He held out a what looked like a silver pen, but it had no point.
"Take this too, if you're returning this stuff to him. He's in the music room." He stated. Chloe was surprised at his sudden niceness. She took the silver thing.
"Why are you nice all of the sudden?" She asked. He looked at her body.
"Something changed my mind." He stated. Chloe was completely confused but she walked away towards the music room.
After a while, she arrived at the door. She heard music coming from the other side of the door. It was a piano, she thought. Whoever was playing, was playing very fast.
She opened the door and peeked inside. A boy was playing the piano. It was him! She looked at the picture for confirmation and back at him. It was definitely him. She walked over with his stuff. He didn't seem to notice her as he was playing. Chloe recognized the song as Baba O'Riley.
"Um, excuse me?" She asked politely. He stopped playing the piano. He turned around and looked at Chloe. He looked at her entire figure and then back at her face. He seemed either surprised or confused. Chloe immediately felt intimidated by him for some reason she couldn't figure out. He was a lot taller than she expected. Then he eyed the cane and silver stick. That broke Chloe out of her silent trance.
"Oh right, I believe this is yours?" She said holding out the items. He took the items. He put the silver stick in his pocket and he positioned his cane in his hand.
"Thanks." He said. His voice was a lot deeper then Chloe thought. He still had a look of confusion. Chloe brushed it off and gave a big smile.
"Hi! I'm Chloe." She said, excitingly. The Doctor rose an eyebrow.
"Ok." He said. He started to walks out of the music room. Chloe tried to stop him.
"Can you tell me your name?" She asked, trying to spark conversation even though she already knew what he called himself. The Doctor didn't even bat an eye walking out.
"Nope." He said walking out of the room and leaving Chloe alone in the room. Chloe was a bit surprised about how the interaction went. She decided to follow him to the lunchroom and try to talk to him again.
Before walking out, she thought about what had happened. Should she really try to be friends with him? Of course, these bullies must of alienated him already. Chloe then walked out of the room, determined to make a new friend that day.
