Stolen
I enjoyed a happy childhood up until I was six years old. I was a normal child, and thought nothing of it. I was small and delicate with blond hair, and my parents called me their little angel. I played with the other children and went to school.
It was on one such school day that it happened. I was on the swing set with my friend Carrie on the school playground when I saw something rather strange. Across the street, there slowly materialized a strange-looking blue box with the words "Police Public Call Box" at the top. I had never seen a "police public call box" before, whatever that meant.
"Carrie! Look over there!" I pointed. "What is that?"
"Where?" Carrie asked.
"Right there! Can't you see it?" I replied, frustrated. "You're looking straight at it!"
Then an even stranger thing happened. Two people stepped out of the box. One was a man wearing a blue suit, a brown coat, and bright red converse. His companion was a red-haired woman in casual clothes. Both of them surveyed the playground, and I got the strange feeling that they were looking at me.
The man reached into his coat pocket and took out a rather peculiar looking fob watch. Even from the distance, I could see the strange design on the back. The man looked up at me, and I gasped, suddenly terrified, for his eyes looked old, so very old. It seemed to me that in the back of my mind I heard a voice echoing, "It is not yet time," whereupon the woman turned to him and slapped his arm.
"Ow! What was that for?" The exclamation drifted over to me as I watched, transfixed. Then to my surprise, he turned back and grinned at me. The woman rolled her eyes and smiled, too. I smiled back hesitantly, and with a wave the pair turned around and went back inside the box.
"How did they both fit in there? Maybe it's magic!" I wondered with my child's mind.
"Jackie! Who are you waving at?" my friend Carrie asked.
"There, can't you see them?" I turned back to find the blue box gone, but with a strange whooshing sound left behind it.
That is how I first saw the Doctor. Now let me tell you of what happened in between then and the day that I first met him.
