Once upon a time, somewhere out there in the Universe, there lived a man. Except, he wasn't exactly a man. He was an alien from another world.
He travelled through time and space in a blue box that was bigger on the inside, going on the most incredible adventures. He often travelled with companions from his favourite planet he loved to visit, called Earth. Some of the companions got left behind. Some of them moved on. And some of them died. There was one companion that remained ever faithful to him. Trouble.
Wherever he went, whether it be back in time, in the future or on another planet, trouble followed behind him like a persistent shadow. No matter how hard he tried to avoid it, it always seemed to catch up with him.
Even though he wouldn't admit it, he would always need someone to be by his side. Because if there wasn't, there would be no one to stop him making fatal mistakes. Also, he would be scared and so very alone. Trust me, you would not want to see that happen to this man.
The man who can make an army run at the mention of his name. The man who can open his blue box with just one snap of his fingers. The man who saves our planets from aliens or unnatural forces every day and no one even knows he was there. Except the lucky few who got the opportunity to witness him at first hand. Those people were so very blessed.
He had many enemies that wanted him hurt. Or even worse dead. Most of his enemies were aliens from other worlds that dared to cross his path. And when they did, God help them. Even now, some of them are still afraid to mention his name incase they thought he would seek vengance for the innocent humans they killed. But he was not a man of violence or revenge. That is what made him remarkable. Well, apart from the fact he had two hearts and could change his appearance when he is on the brink of death.
He had many names, so many no one knows what his true name is anymore. His real name is locked in the depths of the Universe. Some call him The Oncoming Storm. Some call him The Predator. But, the name he gave for those who met him is The Doctor.
The Doctor is a Timelord from Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterbourous which was destroyed in the Time Lord against The Doctor's greatest foes, The Daleks. He has a sonic screwdriver which he often uses to his advantage and a pyschic paper which seems blank to him but full of meaning for the average eye.
He never raises his voice unless necessary, he always puts his vast knowledge to great use and he never, ever asks to be thanked.
The Doctor always saves us, which is why we should all sleep easy in our beds. As he is always there watching over us to protect us from whatever may come our way.
If you look up at the sky and see that magnificent blue box, wave to him. And I'm certain he will wave back. So he knows that he is loved. And by no one more than us.
So that is the story of The Living Legend, which is what I call him. If you ever get to meet The Doctor, just remember this. He really is just a mad man in a blue box.
The End
I hope this is ok :)
