Chapter 2
The first thing Rose noticed was the smell. It smelled like sweat, urine and bad breath. She had to put her hands over her nose. The Doctor, of course, just stood there smiling. He went into everything with such happiness and enthusiasm. He was so amazing …
"Look out below!" cried a man above them. The Doctor grabbed Rose's hand and pulled her out of the way before the contents of the chamber pot the man was holding splattered all over the spot where they had been standing … and the TARDIS. Rose remembered chamber pots from Year 8 History too. They were used instead of toilets.
"Thanks Doctor," she said. Suddenly, a girl of about 16 ran up to them.
"Doctor?"
she said. "Are you the Doctor?"
"Who's asking?" replied
the Doctor. The girl said nothing, but then her blue eyes turned
yellow. They were flashing. Rose had seen a light flashing like that
before. It was the light on the TARDIS! She turned around and sure
enough, the light on top of the TARDIS was flashing in sync with the
girl's eyes.
"3 weeks ago I summoned that box here with the hope that it would bring the Doctor," the girl said.
"Well,
I'm the Doctor," said the Doctor. "Who are you?"
"My
name is Jade," replied the girl. "Jade Annabelle Smith." She
then looked the Doctor in the eye and said "Annabelle Smith was my
mother." At that point the Doctor looked at his feet and Rose
started scratching her head. Who was this Annabelle Smith?
"Anyway," said Jade. "You have come, and that is important. You must come to my house, as we have much to discuss. It is not far."
"Okay then. Off we go!" said the Doctor, his cheerful self once again.
