Chapter One

Arrival on Eden

In the forest, a strange whooshing sound startled a flock of plain brown birds into the air. Not far away, a dark shape spouted flames, searing the birds. The shape then consumed them before vanishing into the trees.

The sound was caused by something no being in or around the forest had ever seen: a blue London police box. Most of the animals in the forest weren't interested in the mysterious blue box. In fact, only one being was even paying any attention to it. Your Majesty, the being said using its mind, it has arrived.

Very good, came the reply. Remember, they must be brought to the palace alive. Do not fail me.

The being nodded and continued to watch the box. It nearly jumped out of its hide when the door opened and two figures stepped out. With a shake of its head, the being took off for the palace, so its ruler could hear of this mysterious development.


Rose Tyler was first to step out of the TARDIS, followed by the Doctor in his standard trench coat and sneakers.

"So where are we?" Rose asked, looking around.

"I'm not too sure yet, I think the TARDIS brought us here on her own," the Doctor replied. He stared intently at the trees around them. "I know exactly where we are," he said after a minute or so.

"And that would be?"

"It's called Eden."

"What, like the Garden of Eden?"

"Not exactly, no."

"Then what?"

"I'm not really sure. Even the Timelords never knew much about this planet aside from its name. Rumor has it that Eden is the exact center of the universe."

"But that can't be right. That's impossible." The Doctor just looked at her.

"Well, since we're here, we might as well look around. It's not every day you visit the center of the universe." And with that, he walked up to the nearest tree and hugged it. The tree dwarfed the tallest Earth trees. Its trunk was so wide, it could fit three large redwoods with room to spare.

Rose, while the Doctor was examining the tree, stayed by the TARDIS. She felt like she was being watched. She looked all around. The pair of them were alone, save for the TARDIS and a huge shape flying overhead. "Doctor, what is that?" she asked pointing to the shape.

"That, I believe, is one of the inhabitants. Coming in for a landing, by the look of it. Come on. Let's go say hello." And, without giving Rose any time to respond, the Doctor dragged her off after the creature.
