Due to the fast positive response to this story, I now present little bits of what the TARDIS thinks of the Doctor's earliest companions. This story will alternate between these descriptions by the TARDIS, and her opinion of major events.

In order, the listed companions for this chapter are Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton, Vicki Pallister, Steven Taylor, Katarina, Sara Kingdom, and Dodo Chaplet. Because someone was asking for clarification.

Susan is not included because the TARDIS does not consider her to be a stray.

Chapter 2- The First Ones

The Wise One

I like this one. She is very wise, not just in knowledge of the history of her planet, but in many things. She is wise beyond her time. She acts as a surrogate mother to the Young One, which the Young One desperately needs, still being a child. She is courageous and strong, even enough to yell at you, Thief, when you are being unreasonable to the others. The two of you can learn a great deal from each other. I can see that you will be the best of friends for a time, until she and the Stubborn One leave me. But don't worry, my Thief. They'll be all right. I can see in their timelines, and they are happy, together.

The Stubborn One

This one does not listen, but he knows better than to do anything stupid. He is reluctant to believe new things, but deep down, he is very curious, and wants to understand things that he doesn't understand. He is fiercely loyal and brave, and will do anything to protect his friends, which includes you, my Thief. He is also smart, considering the time he comes from. I know that the two of you pretend to not like each other, but you are both really great friends. Oh you will be sad, my Thief, when he leaves.

The Excited One

This Child, my thief, reminds me of the Young One. She is always curious, and always excited to experience new things. She learns from both the past and the future. She is still young, guide her, my Thief. She is brave, yet scared, and very clever too, considering her years. She began alone, and now has a family with you, the Wise One, the Stubborn One, and the Sorrowful One. She is the first stray you invited to travel with us, rather than kidnapped. You are happier around the Excited One, my Thief, and that is wonderful.

The Sorrowful One

This stray has lost so much in his young life. He lived through a war, and saw many people he knew die, and then crashed and was alone for a long time, and yet when you found him, my thief, he was so happy to see you and my strays. And then he loses the Excited One in history, and soon after, he had to watch the Dangerous One and the Innocent One die. He is incredibly strong; to go through so much, yet still stay sane. He has many people to mourn, much to grieve over, but he doesn't, for your sake, and for the sake of his friends.

The Innocent One

This one had more potential than she got the chance to live up to. But she didn't even understand what was going on. She even though you were a god, my thief! And yet she sacrificed herself to save your life. Her death was needless!

The Dangerous One

She never needed to die either. It was a hapless mistake. She may have been dangerous and somewhat untrustworthy, but she didn't need to die! She was aggressive in life, and strong-willed. Yet she was loyal.

The Eager One

My Thief, this child came with you by accident, but she was meant to travel with you and the Sorrowful One. She was very caring, and very curious, and she did get into trouble a lot of the time. But she was often happy, helping you and the Sorrowful One during this tough time that the three of you travelled together. I do not know what happened to her, as her timeline is confusing. If I did know, I would tell you, because you never had a proper goodbye from her.
