Hey, everybody! Darou here! Just so you know, this story is going to be more romantic than my last fanfiction. Also, it's a little out of range of the actual series. What I mean by that is that it's based on a scenario in which Donna and Rose and all that never happened. Instead, the Doctor meets an OC, Elisabeth. I might not update on this extremely often, since I'm already working on that Assassin's Creed thing right now, and if I work on too many things at once, I get confused, and when I get confused, I get stressed. Yeah, it sucks. Enjoy!

By the way, this story is rated for people 14+ because of the violence and intense action and romance that might make some people throw up. It's just a sort of warning is all.

Prologue

His lips gently brushed against mine. It seems as if I've only met him yesterday, yet I must have known him all my life. He still looked the same.

Well, not exactly the same. He looked younger, stronger, brighter. We both knew this love could never truly last. He was practically immortal, and I was doomed to die sooner or later.

And yet, as we looked into each other's eyes, a promise, a curse, an oath passed between us.

Nothing is impossible.

Chapter 1: An Awkward Situation

My eyes shot open as my alarm clock went off. I smashed the snooze button and groaned tiredly. Four o'clock in the morning was such a curse.

I took my time getting ready for the day, despising every second of that morning. My car was still in the shop, which meant I would have to walk to work. Thankfully, McDonald's-yes, I worked at McDonald's-wasn't a long ways away from my apartment building.

I shivered as a breeze blew in, and zipped up my jacket.

"Hey, Liz!" called a familiar voice.

I turned to see Wess walking up to me, the sunlight shining in his blue-dyed hair.

"Hi, Wess," I murmured, sounding a lot more glum than I had intended.

He obviously noticed, his smile slowly fading. "Is something wrong?"

"No, I'm fine."

"Are you still upset about Angela moving?"

I sighed. "Yeah."

Angela and I had been friends since third grade. We did pretty much everything together-sleepovers, birthdays, camping trips-until one day, the weather changed a tiny bit and her parents took off to Oklahoma. Mum always said they were strange people.

"She said she'll be back around Spring Break. Hopefully."

He nodded. "Well, I have to go to work." He gave me a quick kiss. "See you later." Then he turned and headed towards the Home Depot.

"Bye." I sighed and continued on with my boring life.

After a while, the sidewalk became crowded with other locals who were going to work or getting an early breakfast. Speaking of which, I should have taken Mum's advice on not eating those week-old eggs. My stomach churned simply at the thought of that awful meal.

Suddenly, a streak of blue sped past me on all fours. I couldn't get a good glimpse of it-it ran like a freaking cheetah-but i could tell it was an animal of some sort. Right after that, a hollering voice rose above the chatter all around me.

"Get out of the way! Hurry! Hurry up! Move!" It was coming towards me.

The people walking ahead of me cried out as they made way for the assailant. As they did, a dark haired man in a blue suit and a trench coat came barreling towards me. I was too late to dodge him, and we smashed right into each other.

I fell back onto my butt, stinging pain all over me from the impact. He tumbled to the ground and groaned in pain as he stood. Serves him right.

"Goodness gracious!" the man said as he helped me to my feet. "I'm sorry. Really, I'm so sorry, but I have to go!" And with that, he continued on his path down the street, disappearing around a corner.

"Idiot," I grumbled as I pulled out my phone to check the time. "Crap! I'm gonna be late!" Without a second thought, I sped across the sidewalk, dodging townspeople and ignoring them as they cursed at me. I was a pretty fast runner, although distance was my real strength. I ran all the way to the McDonald's building, and although I was out of breath when I got inside, I had made it in time.

I checked in and went to change into my uniform while one of the employees started up the fryer.

"Where were you?" growled Mandy, the manager.

Ha, 'Mandy the manager.' That's funny. To me.

"I thought I asked you to come in early today."

"Yeah, sorry about that. I got into an awkward situation is all."
