Prologue

A woman with big curly hair sat in a bed holding a new born baby girl. She smiled at the small form as she passed the baby to the man next to her.

"She's so small." He smiled as he held her close. "Hello small one, I'm your daddy, but you already knew that."

The woman let out a tired laugh. "Spoilers." she said in a tired voice. She closed her eyes resting from the hours of labor.

"My beautiful baby Time Tot." He kissed the babies head gently and handed her back to her mother.

"Doctor, what shall we name her?" The woman asked as she took the small baby in her arms once again.

The Doctor smiled and didn't take long to think. "I've known her name before I saw her born River." He kissed her head once more.

"My sweet girl, My Roria Pond." He smiled as River gave him a heartfelt look.

"After so long Doctor?" She asked now rocking a fussy baby.

"I never forget a single person who has come a bored my T.A.R.D.I.S River, I remember them. Forever and Always."

Chapter 1

"RORIA! RORIA POND! ITS TIME TO GET UP! RORIA!" An old man yelled behind Rorias bedroom door. Roria slept heavy snoring like a grizzly bear as her alarm sounded.

"RORIA! THAT BLOODY ALARM HAS BEEN GOING OFF FOR 30 MINUTES NOW!" He banged on the door harder.

Roria stirred slightly reaching over and shutting off the alarm and got out of bed. She yawned and stretched as she opened her bedroom door.

"Hey Gramps, you look upset. Did you lose your dentures again?" She asked sleepily.

"No...Yes but I found them and That's not the point! You slept through that alarm clock again!" He said frustrated.

Roria looked over at the alarm as it read 8:30. "Oh, I'm sorry Gramps, I don't know why I keep doing that."

He smiled and shook his head. "I do, when your Granddad was a young boy he did it too. I had to yell for him to get up almost all through his last years of school." He chuckled. "I do miss my Rory.." He sighed.

Roria looked away from her granddad always feeling sad when he talked of her mothers father.

"Anyway, get dressed dear. Your mother should be sending you a special gift today. It is your 20th." He kissed her head and headed down stairs.

Roria nodded and closed the door letting out a deep breath. Today was the day she got to know and see her father. All those stories she was told by her mum, all the adventures about saving worlds and universes, she was about to meet the man behind them all.

"The Doctor...My Father." She felt nervous but also so excited as she rushed to her closet and pulled out all the clothes she could. she tried on a long colorful scarf and shook her head at the image. Fur coat was thrown aside, along with a Cream and red blazer, a old 1963 black hat, a velvet magicians suit as she called it, a hat, colorful pants, a leather coat, a green jacket and combat boots.

She sighed not knowing what to wear until she looked through the rest of her clothes in her closet. A brown trench coat stood out to her as she put on shorts, black tennis with long black stockings and shirt with a powder blue vest pulled over and a small bow tie.

She looked herself over and smiled at the image. "Only I can make weird look so good." She winked at her reflection then ran down stairs. Brian Williams was waiting in the kitchen with a small cake and a few gifts.

"Happy Birthday Roria!" He smiled and gave her a kiss. "I made the cake myself, took some learning but I think I got it just right."

Roria smiled and kissed her great granddads cheek. "Thanks Gramps." She smiled at the hand written name and message on the cake.

"Oh! I almost forgot! You got three gifts this year, your mum, me and...your father." Brian whispered the last parts as if the police were listening.

Roria looked up quickly, a big child like smile on her face. "My Dad sent me a gift?" She asked surprised.

"Yes he did, but your mother gave strict rules on the order in which they are opened." Brian said wagging his finger at his great granddaughter.

"Speaking of Mum, where is she?" Roria asked as Brian now shown a woeful face.

"With that being asked dear, your Mums is the first gift you need to open" He sighed and handed Roria the package.

Roria took the small box from him and opened it slowly. Inside was a note and a giant wristwatch it seemed. She looked it over and realized it was the exact same one her Mum wore every time she would visit but she never knew what it was.

She put down the box with the gift inside and looked over the letter reading it.

"My Dearest Roria,

I am sad to inform you that I will no longer be visiting you.

It was my Time to save your father for the first and final time.

You will most likely see me, again, I have no doubt about that.

I have giving you my Vortex Manipulator to aid you in finding your father.

Yes, It is time he met you for the first time. All the stories I have told you are true,

everything is true.

My Vortex Manipulator will help you travel through time or destination .

But I must warn you, it will take some getting used to.

The gift from your father will also aid you in finding him.

I wish you luck my dear sweet child.

Things you will endure and encounter will be amazing and scary but you are our daughter,

you can make it. Don't lose yourself along the way and remember,

what we did, we did in the knowledge that you both would be safe from harm.

See you in Time,

Mum~"

Roria wiped her eyes, she didn't quite understand the note, but she place it down in the box and sat down.

"Gramps...I-" Brian held up his hand and shook his head. He held out her father's gift to her.

"It will all be understood soon." He gave a small smile and sat next to Roria.

She looked at the small blue package and opened it. Inside was a note card and key.

"63, and welcome home my girl."

Roria was confused at the note and key then looked at her granddad. He held out the last gift, it was a big box and when she opened it there was a backpack and duffle back in it.

"I filled them with things you need, like and want you to have." He smiled at her. Roria went to open the bags but he stopped her.

"Not now, after you settle in with your father." He got up and lit the candle to Rorias cake. "Make a wish love."

Roria closed her eyes and blew out the candle. She looked up at her granddad and noticed he was crying.

"Is everything alright?" She asked concerned.

"Yes, and no. Now you best get a move on, don't keep your old dad waiting." He sat the cake down and helped her put the key around her neck and Vortex Manipulator on.

"But gramps I haven't even ate cake. Why the rush?" She asked him quite confused. He looked at her wanting to tell her but knew it would be too hard.

"Roria, know that I love you, I always will. Raising you was the best part of being your great granddad." He hugged Roria tightly. "Push in the number 63, be safe. Tell them hello for me, and I miss them terribly. Go now, do as your told."

He backed away from Roria as she pushed in the number. Then in a flash of light, She was gone.

He sat at the empty kitchen table, and wiped a tear from his eye. Brian thought back years ago to when he first met his great granddaughter.

[Flash Back]

The Doctor knocked on Brian's door loudly and frantically, when Brian got to the door and opened it he was about to give whoever woke him at 3am a piece of his mind.

"IT IS 3AM IN THE BLOODY MORNING! WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" He shouted.

"Doctor are you sure about this? I think he is way past the age of raising a child." River said as she looked over Brian.

"It's her best chance, normal chance. Not one of my or your enemies will ever think to look there." The Doctor said pushing past Brian.

"D-Doctor?! I haven't seen you in years! What is going on?" He asked closing the Doctor behind River.

"But what if an issue un-normal occurs? Maybe we should ask Madam Vastra-"

"NO!" The Doctor yelled startling River and a sleeping Roria.

River calmed Roria and ushered her back to sleep then looked over at The Doctor. "I'm waiting for an explanation for that outburst."

The Doctor sighed. "Well one, Madam Vastra and them are highly busy with a situation to the point where a young child would be too much and two, we want to give her a normal life away from danger to protect her and leaving her with a Silurian and a Sontaran is not the idea of normal despite Jenny being there."

"DOCTOR!" Brian shouted trying to get The Doctor's attention and find out what was going on.

"Right, sorry... Brian Williams, meet River Song your granddaughter and meet Roria Pond your great granddaughter." The Doctor said motioning over to the two.

Brian walked over to them and hugged River gently and smiled at the baby. "Roria Pond? A mix of both names I see."

The Doctor looked River in the eyes and sighed. "It's her best chance River, she will be okay."

After the explanations on everything and The Doctor helping Brian set up Rorias room it was time to say goodbye.

"I will see you again soon sweetie, I promise." River kissed her sleeping daughter and wiped her tears away.

"Take care my Time Tot, I will see you again in Time." The Doctor kissed his daughter and turned to leave with River.

"Oh, by the way, she has to be gone from here before 9:20, 9:23am to be exact on her 20th birthday." The Doctor said to Brian. "I fear that whoever is after me now is going to use my offspring to destroy me or the whole of reality."

Brian looked at The Doctor confused. "How do you know- never mind, time traveler." He said looking back at Roria.

"River will be around from time to time but I must stay away for her own safety everyone's safety. She must never know that The Doctor is her father. Not for a long time at least. You must make sure she is out of here before 9:23am." The Doctor said sternly.

"Yes but why? What is so impor-" Brian was cut off when The Doctor grabbed him and held him close by the collar of his night shirt.

"YOU MUST HAVE HER OUT BEFORE 9:23am ON HER 20TH BIRTHDAY! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" The Doctor whispered yelled and all Brian could do was nod.

When Brian composed himself he finally was able to ask his question more properly. "What happens if she isn't?"

"They will get her, and we will all be doomed." The Doctor said seriously.

"They? Who is they?" Brian asked curiously.

"I can't tell you yet, for her it hasn't happen and it should never happen. Also..." The Doctor took a long breath. "That day, don't say that you two will see each other again." He said without meeting Brian's eyes.

"Why? Won't I see- They kill me that day don't they? When they come looking?" Brian asked with a shaky breath.

"I'm sorry, but yes. You distract them long enough so they can't trace her or where she went." The Doctor said about to walk out the door.

"I will gladly die to protect my great granddaughter." Brian said bravely.

"She meets them you know? Just for a bit. And they love you and miss you too." The Doctor smiled and walked over to his TARDIS.

[Present]

Brian and Roria went through all the ups and downs any family went through and more since that day, but in the end, they loved each other so much and he would never trade that for the world.

He was brought back to reality when he heard his front door crash open. He kept sitting at the table knowing full well what was coming. He looked up to see two metal creatures with what looked like a plunger and whisk for limbs.

"Where-is-she?" The metal creature asked.

"I don't know who you are talking about." Brian said looking at them calmly.

"We traced her DNA to this place, You have traces of her DNA on you. You Lie." The creature said again.

"You will never find her, she is gone and I have no clue where honestly." He told the creatures.

"Then you will be EX-TER-MIN-ATED!" The creatures took aim at Brian.

"Goodbye Roria, may you have a happy life." Brian said softly before they killed him.

[Somewhere in the universe]

Roria appeared somewhere wooded and the sky was night. She groaned as she realized her mother's warnings were indeed correct. She felt like puking and passing out from the jump. She looked down feeling her feet were cold found that she also landed it what seemed like a small pond or mud puddle.

After collecting herself and trying her best to dry her legs and feet she found that it was a bit bright for night and the light seemed to be coming from behind her. When she turned she was met with a Blue Police Box.

Her heart caught in her chest, her mind a blank and her body stiff as a bored. It was there, HE was there. She had to move, she had to get to him. After several moments she moved towards the box. Getting up to the doors, she saw a small key hole and realized what the note from her father meant.

Roria placed the key in and turned receiving a welcoming click. She took a deep breath, grabbed her bags, steadied her shaking hands and opened the door.
