2004: Hi, my name is Tara; I'm 9 years old and alone... Well almost. Three years ago, after the accident, I found a ferret! His name is Captain Jack and he talks to me. People that pass me on the street think I'm crazy, and I bet you do too, but he really does speak! He tells me thing to keep me safe like how to get food and where to live. I love Captain Jack so much!
"Morning Cap" I yawned, I didn't sleep well last night. Something just seemed off. I glanced at Jack and the reason was very clear.
"Jack what's wrong?" I cried. My ferret was curled up in a little ball shivering. What should I do?!
2001: I watched on the telly the Twin Townes crash and burn everything in sight. My parents are in those building, my parents are... Gone. The day care teacher called my only other family in the US, my grandparents.
Life with them was bitter sweet. It was hard to get over the loss of mum and dad, but the sugary biscuits helped. Sadly, this couldn't last. Grandma and Grandpa drove off a bridge trying to doge a drunk driver. I was alone, again. Everything I love die seems to die, why can't I be happy for once?
That day I ran away, no one else would have to suffer because of me!
Three days on the sidewalk, no food, fresh water, or friends. I was as good as dead by that point. Then it hit me, a whiff of the most delicious thing ever! I stumbled around the corner and saw a street vender selling sandwiches! I was so hungry, I had to one. Just then, a gray ferret bit the mans ankle and took off. The vender chased after him leaving his cart open for the taking. I quickly grabbed as much food as I could and darted off.
That night the ferret came to my box, told me his name, and became my best, first, only friend.
"Jack, don't do this to me! You can't leave me, I can't lose anymore! Please, Captain Jack what can I do?" I was having a panic attack. I just couldn't be on my own again, I couldn't lose him, and I'll do whatever it takes.
"Tara, there's a blue box waiting for me not to far from here. You need to take me there, now!" Jack. Managed to say in-between deep breaths, his condition was getting worse.
"How can the blue box help? And how to I find it? Jack I'm so confused." The more he struggled the more I worried; I don't know how much longer he can go on like this.
"The box belongs to The Doctor, he will know how to fix me. You can find him by looking for what doesn't fit..." Jack passed out. I freaked thinking he had died, but soon released he still had a pulse.
What did he mean "doesn't fit?" it didn't matter though; I had to find this Doctor!
2002: "miss you mum and dad, always." it has been a year since 9/11, but the sorrow remains the same. Living homeless in NYC isn't half bad. Jack and I make a living off of pick pocketing, and we sleep in an abandoned tool shed next to the most beautiful park. The only down side is the cold winters, jack has to curl up with me to stay worm. For fun I take Captain out for walks and sometimes I sneak into theaters and watch all the plays. I wish I could be an actress. All that money and fame! A true way to live for sure. Jack tells me that dreaming is such a human thing to do, and to never stop. He always has the wisest things to say, it's like he's seen a lot, almost like he's lived forever.
"Blue box, doesn't fit, Doctor..." I was frantic! Looking in every Ally, parking-lot, and garage I could find. Nothing. "Jack I need your help!" I screamed at him.. But he was still out cold. What do I do, what do I do! My head was spinning and the lump in my throat was getting bigger and bigger.
"Doctor," I whispered, "help me?" I fell to my knees with Captain Jack I my hands. The thunder clouds were rolling in and my nerves were tense. "Where are you?" I manger to choke out. When I finally pulled myself together, I noticed something out of the ordinary. A BLUE policy BOX! I found it! Jack, you're going to be ok.
