Chapter 3

Fifteen minutes later, the Doctor were sitting in front of the school on the stair case. She had been kicked out by the principal, for trying to set the classrooms fish free in the sink, because claiming that the fish had told her. But he had! She talked fish, as well as any language. In the classroom an other realization had come, that she was talking with an american accent. It had come so sudden, when she was arguing with the teacher. What have happened with her beautiful accent? Now she sounded like a female Jack Harkness, and it was not good. Would make it so much harder go go back in time, before America's times. Talking about hard stuff with her new regeneration, she was a woman! No one would take her seriously in many time eras! The Doctor took her face to her hands, and a train of thoughts went though her head, I am a stupid woman. She still haven't got it in full realized it yet, and it was weird. Regenerating was a part of life for a Time Lord, and I have done it many times, 13, but never switched gender. Is it even usual? I needed to know. I needed a female companion. The Doctor stopped at the 'companion' thought. Companion, I have never realized how old and boring that name is. They are more like sidekick, than companions. Sidekicks, I like that name for it…. Sidekicks… The Time Lord looked at her clothes. Still ripped up, and dirty. No wonder she was kicked out. Also it was mens clothes, a too wide over the shoulders t-shirt, now baggy black pants. Over the t-shirt she had a black suite jacket. Every thing looked like it has been throw into a blender. I need to go shopping. She checked her inside pocket, smiled to her relief when she felt the sonic screwdriver. I have my credit card, now, let's go shopping.

After looking for some minutes, and getting many strange looks, se finally found an ATM. It was also luckily fairly close to the shopping mall. After checking every direction, to see it was clear, she took out 100£. She walked over to the mall, thought the automatic doors, and stepped inside. She gulped as she looked what she had in front of her. I don't need much, just until the TARDIS is finished. She breathed out heavily, and walked into the first store. 30 minutes later she had bought a white t-shirt, and blue jacket, some dark blue jeans, and underwear. The underwear was the hardest one, since she had never done that before. She walked into and other store, where she bought a pair of sneakers. With 20£ left she went over to the grocery store to buy some food. When nothing interested her, she went over to the farmers market out side the mall. There, as she looked at some delicious looking apples she got a craving. Craving for apples. She bought six.

The Doctor was back at the stairs to the school. Now reflecting again. After eating up the three of the apples with the blink of an eye, she had now gotten depressed. What was she going to do? Every thing was different now. Usually it too only a day or two before she got used to her new regeneration, but this? A woman? It would get really, really hard to travel back in time now, seeing that before woman was more of a trophy, than a human being. And how was it even possible to change gender? Was that usual at all? Argh! I need the TARDIS library! But she is regenerating too! The Doctor took to her head in frustration. Suddenly a thought come to her head, which made the Doctor laugh. Every woman I have kissed up through the years have become lesbian. Oh god, I am lesbian! Not bad…

The Doctor got up, and circled on the steps. So I am a woman, okay, I just need to make the best out of it. She stopped to think. What do girls think about? Unicorns, rainbows, boys, shoes, clothes. Okay, so a boy on a unicorn, wearing clothes, walking on a rainbow with shoe shopping bags…. That is a weird mental image. Hey look! She smiled, I am thinking like a girl! In the store the Time Lord had looked at her self in the mirror. She was a woman alright, with red short hair, blue eyes, and a freckly face. She was short too. Really short. Barely over 1,60m. But luckily she was a good size. Not too fat, and not too skinny. The only thing that she wasn't happy about herself, apart from the obvious woman part, was her nose. It was small, and sort of round. But at the tip of the nose it looked like she had walked into a door, because it was totally flat. And she had started a quirk to stroke herself on the flat part of the nose. It was really annoying. And she found herself doing this right now. She slapped her own hand.

"Stop it!"

Right then, the sonic screw driver started to buzz. The Doctors eyes grew big, as she realized it was the signal that the TARDIS was done! A happy, delighted, excited and wondering feeling started to grow in the Doctor. She's one, she's done! Right when she was going to run to see the TARDIS the school bell started to ring, and the sound of free children rose to the sky. The Doctor turned around and looked at the school. The kid, or the TARDIS. The Doctor thought for some seconds, then ran up the stairs to the school. In the hall way she saw a lot of kids, in all sizes and colors. She ran as fast as she could though the kids, up to the second floor. Where she saw The Kid. He was working his way trhough the other kids.

"Comme on! I've got to show you something!" She waived with her hand, waiting for him to come.

"What is it?" The Kid asked when he had caught up with the Doctor.

"Remember the blue box I was talking to, the one that had crashed?"

"Of course."

"I said it was regenerating, which means it is changing how it looks, or repairing her self, but also changing her interior. My point is that, she is done doing this, regenerating I mean, and I want to go and look at her, wondering if you would like to join me for a trip in time and space?"

"You say 'she', as if it is alive."

"She is alive. Inside her it is something living, hard to explain, you are young, you wouldn't under stand half of it. I don't understand all of it, and I am 1000. I turned 1000 years old, last month actually. Good party." She said gazing of with a smile, remembering how it went.

"Doctor." The Kid said, waking her up.

"Right! Do you, Jamie the Kid, want to join me for the maiden voyage of the new TARDIS?" She smiled proudly.

"I don't know, I only have 45 minutes of recess. Plus I need to eat lunch."

"Kid, Kid, Kid." The Doctor said shaking her head. "It's a friggen time machine! We could be days in that thing, and come back for lunch. I was going to say dinner there, but it's soon lunch, not dinner… Any how? Want to join me in the Time and Relative Dimensions in Space, blue police box?"

"Stop jabbering and get on with it! Yes of course I want to join you!"

"Good, 'cuase you need to show me the way. I have no clue where she is.
