The Day Everything Changed, For the Second Time

My name is Clara, and I am seventeen years old and this is the time everything changed, for the second time. This is what happened, when it happened at the time the mad man in the blue box changed my life for the second time.
It was an ordinary day for me, a final year high school student, get up and ready and go to school like every other week day, little did I know what today would hold.

18thJanuary 2014 (Present Day), Time: 08:45, Location: Oxford Street, London

I'm walking the usual way to school like I have done since I started at Crosshill, down the alley behind my house, through the park then on to the main road where I meet my friends and walk into school. Today was different; I had only just left the alley when I heard that whoosh sound, the sound of my dreams, the sound of the TARDIS. As soon as I heard it I stopped, turned round and looked for that iconic blue box, with the mad man inside. Just as I had expected there he was, standing there in front of the box, gesturing for me to go over, and that is exactly what I did.

When I went over he looked exactly the same as last time I saw him, the time I went to stars and saw what every space fanatic dreams of, the earth and all the planets, from space. 'Hello Crissie' he said when I got there, the same as that first time. My reply was the same as every time, 'Hello Doctor'. Then we got talking about why he was here, needing me again.

After this conversation I agreed to go with him and help him with the problem of the clockwork droids in Victorian England, so long as he kept his side of the agreement, to bring me back to this exact time on this exact day so nobody will know that I was gone, and to keep me safe so I don't die in a time/world where nobody knows who I am. He agreed, so off I went into the TARDIS to travel back to Victorian England to help defeat these clockwork droids.

14thSeptember 1900 (Victorian Time), Time: 11:30, Location: Fleet Street, London

The TARDIS lands with the signature "bump" and me and the Doctor stepped out and looked around, everything looked normal; people where bustling round the market stalls making sure they have everything they need for themselves and their family. The doctor suggests we lay low until stuff kicks off, as all he knows is that the droids are attacking the 1900's either today (Friday) or tomorrow (Saturday). As all time travellers know, it's hard to tell where stuff is attacking when there is no technology about, so to get it down to 2 days is good!

So me and the doctor go back into the TARDIS and change into clothes more suiting to the era so it's easier for us to fit in.

So now we're changed we go find somewhere to hide the TARDIS, as a blue police box doesn't fit in back in Victorian England. Then, once the TARDIS is hidden in a barn, we go take a look round the markets and find somewhere to stay where it will be easy to tell if things begin to get hairy. We decided to stay in an inn, two streets away from where the TARDIS brought us, meaning we will be in the centre of the action, if any kicks off.

Later the same day in Victorian London, at the local market

I had decided to go for a walk and see if I could make any friends in the surrounding area to find out if anything weird has been going on, anything out of the ordinary. I did in fact make a friend, she's called Ruth and has been living in the area for three years now, and she says there has been some funny things going on at the big house on the hill; she says people go up to the house to see why there are clockwork dolls in the window and then never come back and all you see afterwards is a clockwork doll waving at the front window. This was exactly the lead I was looking for, so I introduced myself as Clara (I knew there would be a perk of having a Victorian name someday) and said I would introduce her to my friend Doctor John and let him explain why me and him were here and why we are so interested in the strange things at the big house on the hill.

Same Day, Back at the Inn

When Ruth and I got back to the Inn, we went and spoke to the doctor, who made sure Ruth was ready to hear what he was going to tell her. After this, the doctor told her why we were here (to find out why the clockwork droids were here and what they are doing) and why we needed her help (she knows the local area and how to get places quickly). After this in depth conversation, that I really can't be bothered to write in my diary, that lasted for at least 2 hours we were all ready to get some sleep and start are mission tomorrow, so off we all went to bed to get a good night's sleep for the last time we knew we could, because once we start our mission, who knows when we'll get time to sleep.


Right, that's the end of chapter one of The Problem of Clockwork. I hope you all enjoyed it.
Sorry it wasn't action packed but where would I go after if all the action was here, eh?

So no matter if you like it or not please favourite, follow and review if you want, I'm not forcing you but I would love you as its you guys reading that will be able to help me the most with my fanfic life.

So that's it for this time
