Naomi

"This is bloody bullshit." I was so frustrated with this place I had planned to do so much traveling I wanted to travel in time and space. When I was a little kid my parents told me stories about when they were companions of this time lord named Borusa apparently he used to be a teacher to the Doctor. I'm not sure if I believe that though because there's no way he could teach someone as legendary as him but, I am a child of the TARDIS and we're supposed to only be legends too so I suppose it's possible.

The story I was told by my mom about my birth was that she and my dad were traveling with Borusa around the time they got married, Borusa knew that the great time war was beginning and was afraid of a Dalek victory so he chose couples to travel with him before he went back to face his opponents. He was single handedly trying to repopulate the Time lords before they were even extinct. He went back to war when all the children of the TARDIS were born and he knew how many were time lords, he then made sure they all had their own ship, I was told there were around eight of us. As I was preparing to take my leave and explore the universe my mom got sick I told her I could take her forward in time a few hundred years they were bound to have the cure for cancer then but she insisted that she was a "woman of the 21st century" and she "wouldn't be treated in the 25th. " So I stayed behind and worked on a cure myself but medicine wasn't my strong suit, I had an enormous IQ as did the other children of the TARDIS but I'm only 19 there are only so many degrees you can get I have a PHD in Math, Physics, and Aeronautical Engineering. Since my mom got sick I went to Med School and I'm going to graduate this spring then I'll be able to get into real research mode.

*Knock Knock*

That's odd I very infrequently had visitors, only Cook he's another child of the TARDIS. He went traveling last year and I haven't seen him since. Who knows how long he's actually been traveling could be years, months, days or even hours won't know until I see him next. I opened the door.

"Hello are you Naomi Campbell." A mysterious looking brunette asked.

"Who are you?" was my only reply.

"My name is Effy Stonem and I have reason to believe we are kin"

"I'd think I'd know if I had any family, how do you think we're related?"

"Borusa" she said with a smirk on her face gauging my reaction.

I kept my face calm and confused "Not sure that name rings a bell why don't you come inside and I'll pull out some old journals of my moms."

Effy looked leery but stepped inside, little did she know I had a containment field that I activated to keep her detained inside the house unable to move out of her 3 foot bubble. She just stood there and laughed.

"I knew you were a child of the TARDIS" she took what looked like a pen out of her pocket and pointed it at my device and it immediately shut down.

"Don't worry I'm a child too you must feel it you're not sure what but you know I'm familiar somehow, better yet let me show you my friends TARDIS there's five of us traveling together."

We walked in silence, I didn't like it but she was right I had a weirdly familiar feeling about her but she was still a stranger. We walked up to a shed in the yard that had never been there before Effy opened the door and damn, I'd never seen a TARDIS apart from mine I didn't even go into Cooks normally people were very secretive with their ships so Effy just showing me hers was unbelievable we walked in and within seconds I heard a laugh that was very familiar, and then three people walked into the main control room.

"Cook, are you serious you've been gone so long how are you." I was elated to see my best mate again he ran to me and he picked me up and spun me around.

"Naomikins, how long has it been for you it's only been three months for me"

"It's been a year you dick"

"We were trying to get back a few minutes after I left but it looks like I got the year wrong, my bad"

"Yeah you're damn right you're bad what happened to your ship Cook this certainly isn't it."

"Apparently when we all got our ships not all of them were good quality some were really old and some weren't quite finished mine was really old so it didn't work for very long, I sent out a distress call and these three came, you met Effy and this is Freddie and JJ."

"Hello nice to meet you all I'm Naomi. Wow there's so many of you this could quite possibly be more than half of us the only of our kind, its just mind blowing isn't it?" I was shocked I never imagined that I'd meet so many of my kind and certainly not at the same time.

"How old are all of you anyway."

"Age is relative and since we travel in time you can measure age in fixed points in which case I'd be about 3 at this point or you measure in days in which case I'm 20 and the latter is the more accurate because ..."JJ rambled until Freddie interrupted him

"LOCKED ON JJ, I'm 21 and Effy's 80"

"How long have you been traveling Effy?" I asked

"Well I traveled for two years with Borusa before he went back to the time war then for a year on my own when I was 19 but my TARDIS was one that wasn't quite ready to fly yet so I got stuck in 1953 I've been living here for 60 years and yes I did regenerate one time in 1980. Thankfully the only part of my TARDIS that didn't work was the teleport so at least I was stuck with good technology I worked for 30 straight years trying to fix my ship but nothing worked it just wasn't ready for flight when I took her out and she'd never fly again because of it." Effy looked sad as she thought about her ship. "But I'm now the expert in TARDIS's so before you leave let me look at your ship and if you want we can travel together"

"I have to stay here for my mom" Naomi said

"Okay why don't I take a look at your ship and we'll come back for you when you signal us you shouldn't travel the stars alone especially in the beginning when you don't have knowledge of aliens."

Who does she think she is I don't have knowledge of aliens I'M LIVING AMONG ALIENS Jesus Christ I walked out of their ship and brought them to mine I went inside to the dining room and walked into my corner cabinet I loved this disguise it always made me feel like I was walking into the wall.

"Just like I remember it Blondie." Cook said with a smile on his face

Effy walked around checked some things with her sonic pen she looked gleeful.

"Naomi this is by far the best TARDIS I've seen, it's just perfect there are no flaws before you go anywhere with it you should fuel up, there's a rift in Cardiff that's pretty powerful so it wouldn't take you long to power it up"

"Well I'm not going anywhere for a while, but I'm going to see my mom Cook she's asked about you why don't you guys come along she'll be happy to know that the others have found me"

Effy was itching to see my TARDIS in action so we took her to the hospital it was exhilarating flying that beautiful piece of machinery all of us contributed to navigation but I took lead it was the best thing I've ever experienced and as we landed my TARDIS popped something up from the control panel it was a sonic screwdriver, most TARDIS's will give you some sort of device but the only other TARDIS that gave a sonic screwdriver was the Doctors maybe the machines were related in some way.

I checked the security camera and made sure no one was in my mom's room save her and we piled out of what now looked like a medicine cabinet.

"Oh my God you finally flew it oh Naomi I'm so happy"

"Mom you're not going to believe who found me"

The others were in her line of sight and she gasped

"The other children wait Effy is that you?"

Effy looked startled for a minute then a look of realization crossed her face "Gina it's been so long I'd ask how things were but I think I can tell."

And that cheeky cow laughed of course my mom laughed then Effy laughed and it was like they'd made that joke a hundred times.

"How do you two know each other?" I asked

"We travelled together with Borusa for about 2 years right until you were born then he went back to the time war and I went off on my own"

Naomi was jealous of the bond Effy seemed to have with her mother, she knew her in a way Naomi never could as a friend before she had a child back in her youth. She watched as the two of them laughed away and spoke of old memories

After about an hour Gina asked to speak to me alone after she had a minute alone with Effy.

"Naomi, I'm dying and you know it. You can see that I'm not going to get any better, it doesn't matter how many degrees you get I'll die just the same so there are a few things I need you to do"

"Mom don't talk like that"

"Don't be naïve Naomi you know as well if not better than I do that I'm dying I know you see time differently than everyone else I KNOW you can tell I'm a fixed point I'm meant to die here" Mom said all of that with water in her eyes but strong as I've ever seen her

All I did was look to the floor and cry she was right time lords saw everything differently there are fixed points which must happen and never change and there are moments in flux, the outcome isn't predetermined and may turn out in any way. She was right she's a fixed point and it broke my heart destined to die in less than a week's time. I would stay with her this whole week 24/7 nothing would take me from her side

"Once I'm gone you need to go to Naomi you're not meant to live like this in this time stunted you need to explore and you have four people to travel with so why wouldn't you, we both know if you wanted to within five years you'd have every degree possible and be making as much money as you want but that's not what time lords do you need to be OUT THERE exploring I did it for three years and they were the best of my life, they brought me you and how could anything compare to that. You can come back but you can't waste anymore of your time here love. Oh and find the Doctor I know he's flying around somewhere I met him a few times lovely fellow he'll help you all learn about who you are."

Both of us were crying hard at this point

"You know It's funny I met someone whom I think looked a bit like you a long time ago I only knew her for a month or so but she was brilliant I named you after her, hell who knows maybe it was you I met all those years ago" she chuckled at the thought "of course you out of all people would create a paradox"

We spent the last week laughing and sharing memories getting to know each other better neither realizing we had missed out on each other when there was time. It was amazing and dreadful at the same time, my mother was an amazing woman and it sucks that it took me this long to really realize it.

February 25th 2013 the best woman I ever knew left this world she had done so much with her life, more than most she got to explore universes and see times long gone and those that have yet to arrive, she shook hands with Gandhi walked in the rallies' for women's and aliens' rights, she walked on the moon took a class at the University of Mars she was wonderful. Above all else she was my mother an amazing woman who raised her alien child like she belonged on this world. I will love her until my dying breath even if that is going to take a long time.

I decided I needed to get away for a while before the funeral, and since time has no hold on me anymore I can wait 20 years before I have to face that.

"Alright guys where to; I'm thinking past, maybe Italy during the renaissance." I started pushing buttons and making my TARDIS fly before anyone agreed. Cook was the first to speak up

"Aren't you going to the funeral?"

I froze jesus couldn't he just let me be for a couple minutes

"I will but I have so much time to do that maybe I'll come back in a couple years."

"If you say so whenever you're ready I'll go with you, you're my Naomikins after all."

"I'd like to go to we were mates back in the day" Effy said

"Thanks you guys, now everyone buckle up its time for ITALYYYY."

I hope you guys liked my first real chapter. Sorry that I killed Gina off but you'll see her again don't worry time travelers have a way of showing up after they die. I promise the next chapter will have aliens and action, also Emily and the Doctor from Emily's POV
