I only own my OC and not very much as she seems to make her own decisions.

Needless to say it didn't work. The girl resumes struggling and Missy sighs. How to convince her?
"Just listen would you- and stop that struggling while you're at it. I'm much stronger than you, besides I'm offering you a chance at adventure." Right words for the Doctor's companion, wrong for her companion, "And knowledge! You like learning things don't you? You could meet some of the most influential figures in history-" She made sure not to mention the fact that it might actually be the girl's future, "discover something that could change the world," She doesn't say that the girl might have already done that, "you could even become a God of some kind!" Missy certainly doesn't tell her that she has done that before, with a different face. Throughout her speech the girl just stares. Missy grins cheesily, waiting for the girl's acceptance.
"No. I won't go anywhere with a mad-woman and I refuse to leave my family. Let me go." Once again the girl stares into Missy's eyes confidently, hiding no small amount of fear.
"Did I not say time travel?" Missy tries one last time.
"Did I not say no?" The girl mimics her. Dramatically the Mistress sighs.
"Are you sure?" Missy releases the girl's arms, pulling her umbrella from under her own arm and leaning on it.
"Yes." The girl's gaze is steely as she rubs at the bruises already forming around her wrists, fear already dissipating at the fact she is relatively unharmed. It takes all Missy's willpower not to knock the frustrating human out. Being good is so hard. Instead she flourishes her umbrella and her own T.A.R.D.I.S appears beside them in the form of a red telephone box, strange green light pouring through the open door. She turns and steps inside, invisible through the windows on the sides.
"Goodbye, Miss Florence Elizabeth Wright. I will see you next week." Missy waves her umbrella through the open door at the curious yet fearful girl. A sound almost like wind is emitted from the T.A.R.D.I.S which slowly starts to disappear.
"How did you know my name?" Chuckling Missy leans out of the door towards the nervous human again, the wind turns to a grating, grinding sound as the box settles itself down again.
"My kind can use telepathy, Miss Wright. Don't they teach you anything in school?" Some of the fear in her eyes turns to awe and the Mistress knows how little it would take to tempt her now, "If you travel with me you could learn amazing things. Things that would make your mind swim right now. You could become someone you could never be in this time period. You could be more intelligent than you ever dreamed. All you have to do is come with me." She reaches out a hand for the girl, her thoughts teeter on the edge and if Missy weren't trying to be good she would just give a small mental nudge to push her over.
Instead she uses the truth.
"I can drop you back home at this exact second, your family wouldn't realize you were gone. All of time and space for you to learn from. You wouldn't miss anything at all and what you stand to gain. Come with me, Miss Wright." She pauses, smiles as gently as her current face can, whispers, "Come with me, Florence Elizabeth Wright." The girl takes her hand…
"I'll be waiting next week, Mistress." The Mistress smiles as the girl as she releases her hand and steps back to wave, "Right here." The door closes and the girl marvels at the way it looks completely empty though she knows that it's not the truth. Inside the Mistress smiles to herself as she sets the co-ordinates for the next week.
Finally, she had her companion.

This actually surprised me, when I first wrote the chapter Florence hated Missy but I managed to change her mind, sorry if it seems a little awkward, it does to me anyway but it's better than what I had previously. Might be a while before the next chapter because I have other stories to update and the ever-present issues of school and applications to higher education. Review if you like
