AN:Chapter 2 officially 8D. Like I said we have a cameo from an old companion towards the end. Oh when I describe Genesis's father think of him like Bison from Street Fighter if you can understand what I'm talking about. Genesis's Mother I say try to imagine her like a Xenia Ontopp. I know I make the Doctor seem a bit like an intergalactic James Bond but well we might as well have one episode that seems that way lmao XD. I know for a fact next chapter is going to be fun to write because...well I think the end of this chapter will tell you what next episode would revolve around. Anyways Enjoy It and do what you want. I know I had fun thinking it.

On the Run

That night I didn't answer the door and my guards busted into the room prepared to take me out guns blazing. I was three steps ahead of them and knocked them out with a couple of punches. I dragged them inside my room and closed the door. I grabbed my book bag and stuffed some clothes in it. Walking back towards my room I grabbed my bed sheets tied them together along with belts attaching them to one of the columns in my room. I opened my window and placing the rope made of bed sheets to escape slightly outside. I put on my backpack and made my way out the window silently.

I ran across the front yard without being noticed by any of the guards and made my way towards where ever the wind took me. Just as along as the Doctor and I would be reunited I had no problem with where I ended up. I needed help and he was the only person I could turn to.

Now officially on the run, the US government wants me terminated, so terminated in fact that they asked the Prime Minster for help. Which could only mean one thing, Torchwood was officially on my ass as well as the CIA. Apparently I was seen as an ally to the Doctor, who supposedly is a threat to the national security ofEngland. (How that happened I may never know.)

Well after pulling off my greatest Jason Borne impression yet. Kicking 3 special black ops asses while in an alley way and avoiding a kill shot from a roof top sniper while making a break for the train, I ended up settling down in Cardiff. I changed my appearance drastically and even developed a new persona to make sure I wasn't found out by anyone.

I was getting tired of running. I had been putting off the distress beacon to the side because I didn't want to prematurely trigger the Doctor to come back into my life. It really was a last resort.

I wanted to resolve this as cleanly as possible without having people getting severely injured. Of course now with Torchwood being involved the chances of that happening are damn near improbable. I held the beacon in my hand and looked at it. I let out a sigh of reluctance. I had no other choice but to activate it.

Not even two minutes after activating it, I heard the noise of the Tardis landing near by. I turned around behind me and saw the Tardis just a few feet away. I walked up towards it and knocked on the door.

It popped open then and out came the same Doctor I saw before. This time though he had no one with him. The emotion that over came with in me as I looked him over. I couldn't help but embrace him and let the words "It's so good seeing you again Doctor" escape my lips.

The Doctor retracted slowly from the sudden showing of affection and asked "Do I know you, Miss?"

I stood in front of the doors and exhaled deeply. I expected this. I was warned about this happening. But why did I still feel like a bit of me died with the question? I answered "Yes you do but I'm guessing you're a lot younger than when we first met."

The Doctor's eyes bulged out and stated rather shocked "You know me in the future."

I nodded and said "You're future self warned me about this situation I would get myself into. He also mentioned that you're the only one who could help me in this case. You even gave me this distress beacon."

I handed him the beacon and he analyzed thoroughly. He finally (after his weird analysis of it) said "You're right; there's no denying I gave this to you."

I nodded my head but asked then out of curiosity "Where is your companion?"

He answered solemnly "She's gone but that's not important."

At then I knew which Doctor I was dealing with. He had just lost Rose due to the closing of the void. He had met Donna Noble and finished scaring her to bits with his powers.

I looked into his brown orbs with my dark brown ones and said sternly "I'm in danger Doctor and I need someplace safe to be in order to explain this whole situation."

He asked accusingly "How do I know I can trust you?"

I replied offended "Because you wouldn't have given me that beacon if you felt I wasn't worth your time."

The Doctor noticed my seriousness towards his accusation of my trust and shrugged saying "Fair enough. Get into the Tardis then."

He opened the door and held it for me to step in. I felt a shiver come down my spine. This was for real. It wasn't just some fairytale I heard from my child hood that really was just a figment of fantasy. The Time And Relative Dimension In Space machine existed.

The shiver was also caused by more than the reality of the Tardis existing. It was cause from the mixture of excitement and fear. The excitement was from the fact that I would have my first full blown adventure like those in the stories I've heard. The fear was coming from the fact that I was dealing with the Doctor in one of his darkest moments in his life.

As soon as I was near the console of the Tardis, he slammed the door shut. His look darkened then and he commanded "Explain yourself, now."

I stood rather erect as he approached me. He looked me dead in the eye and I didn't back down. His height should have intimidated me since I'm 5'3 but I couldn't possibly show any sort of fear that would cause him to radiate his over-confidence.

I had to play my cards properly and show him I could be just as authoritative. I gave into his command out of respect. "I'm a test subject of the United States government. I'm part of Project Genesis. The whole point of the project was to create you the perfect companion so the government could have some sort of say in where in time you could fix to their advantage. You see you ended up helping President Nixon with an issue he was having around 1969. It was because of this the US government became interested in your abilities and started Project Genesis. I'm the only successful subject, Number 21 code name Grissom."

The Doctor threw another accusation "Well, why should I help you? If anything this could be some sort of trick to leer me into a false sense of security."

I answered honestly "I'm tired of the sheltered life I've been living Doctor. I've been living miserable for the past 16 years of my life. I was always the test subject and never the human. It wasn't until I met you that I really felt the rush of living you know. Ever since I was a little kid all I did was study you profile and hope that one day you would come and save me from this torturous life I live.'

He looked at me expressionless. He was trying to read if my feelings were truly genuine. My eyes softened and pleaded "Please, help me Doctor."

He held me on my sides away from him. He said 'I'll help you but answer me this. How much do they know about me, the people under Project Genesis?"

I responded "Ask me anything and I'll answer."

The Doctor requested "Tell me about me then as much as you possibly can."

I complied with his request: "You are currently the 10th regeneration of the Doctor. You regenerated into this form after you absorbed the time vortex because your companion at the time Rose Tyler ended up taking it in. She became the Bad Wolf then and lost control of her power. She lost so much control that she even made Captain Jack Harkness immortal.

After you regenerated you promised to take Rose toBarcelona, the planet, in the year 5006. You were getting use to the new body even pointing out some of the highlights like you head of hair and the mole on you back. You seriously were excited about your sideburns.

Rose was in doubt that you were the real Doctor she met and if you were really the Doctor she wondered how she would adapt to your new face. You picked up on this concern and asked her if she wanted you to change back. In which she replied yes and you said you can't revert back to older forms. You then picked up on the uneasiness of the situation and changed course to Christmas Eve 2006 on the planet earth. Which so happened to be the day of the Christmas invasion."

The Doctor with a bit of hurt in his voice said "That's interesting and all but tell me, about the Doctor I am currently now is what I meant to say."

I answered reluctantly "You're by yourself because you lost Rose. You just recently closed the void between two universes to lock out the cybermen. Rose wasn't sucked into the void of nothingness but she was brought into the parallel universe for safety purposes. Mickey and Jackie were also brought into that world for protection. You, right now, by the way you are looking had just finished resolving the Donna Noble issue in which you had to confront a Racnoss."

The Doctor looked stunned at my knowledge of his just recent encounter. I mean who wouldn't look shocked. He was usually the one with the answers and here I was flaunting my knowledge about his pervious endeavors. I looked down and asked "Are you satisfied or do you want more proof to confirm my story?"

The Doctor shook his head and said "I'll help you."

I looked him in the eyes again this time smiling and gratefully responded "Thank You, Doctor."

The Doctor bounced back up to his normal mood and asked "Torchwood wants you're head to huh?"

I said placing my book bag next to the main console "Yup but whose head Torchwood wouldn't want?"

He spun around and pointed at me and said "You're so right on with that point."

He questioned then "Any ideas on how to approach this situation?"

I answered licking my lips "We could always go with the I take you to my superiors, we trick them into thinking you'll be more than will to cooperate, and when they think the deal is sealed we give them the finger. Though that usually leads to a lot of running and I don't know if you're up to it."

He began to fool around with the controls laughing manically and replied "You obviously have met me in person."

I tipped my head forward and nonchalantly stated "I'm never one to disappoint."

The Doctor went to the controls again and fiddled with them. He then turned around towards me while raising an eyebrow and dared "Push the Yellow Button."

I matched his eyebrow raise with one of my own. I was never one to back down from a dare, so I pushed it.

The Tardis began to move and he yelled over the roar "HOLD ON TIGHT!"

I grabbed on to the railing as we began to shake and be pushed around like rag dolls. When we landed I was swinging like a monkey gymnast and giggling like an idiot.

The Doctor seeing me in a rather amused state couldn't help but ask the obvious "Enjoying ourselves aren't we?"

I flipped myself back onto the main console floor and replied with a simple "Very much."

I brushed myself off from anything dirty and took a deep breath. I looked behind me and said "It is showtime."

I walked down towards the door and opened it. Right in front of me were a group of soldiers with their guns pointed at the Tardis. There she was though standing before the soldiers all smug like she really got the job done, my apparent mother.

I stepped down and she smiled at me as if I was welcomed but I knew she was the one who gave the order to kill me. I smiled back though to keep up appearances. I said putting fake warmth to my voice "Mother."

The Doctor was right behind me and locked the Tardis. My mother looked over me and said "You found the Doctor."

I nodded and replied "Just like I promised."

She asked "How?"

The Doctor replied "I sensed she was in danger and my Tardis brought me to her."

He was speaking the truth after all, that is what technically happened. I said "You see; he didn't reject me. He was waiting for the right time to come and take me with him. And now he's completely willing to help us. Don't you see? Now I can finally fulfill the wishes of father and be complete."

My mother smirked and said "Yes indeed you can."

She looked at the Soldiers and told them to put their weapons down. The Doctor was at my side and smirked. I tilted my head to the side and smiled at him. We could do this I thought. He could help me finally secure my freedom.

My mother led us then to the main room where my father was. I closed my eyes and unconsciously grabbed the Doctor's hand. My mother said "Sir, I have successfully brought you the Doctor."

I glared at her then and my father turned around slowly, his militant cape bellowing. He approached my mother and said "I'm pleased that finally you brought the timelord within United States soil, Commander."

He turned towards us and said "Grissom, ever the perfectionist to follow orders to a T, convinced the Doctor to show up in her hour of need."

The Doctor said "I never left her to begin with. I was always following her, Commander."

He looked at the Doctor and said "Don't play me for a fool, Doctor. You're not here to work with us. You're here to barter for her freedom. You were always soft in matters of the heart."

The Doctor smirked and said "Well why don't you expose what you have planned since you know so well why I am here."

I looked at him startled. I really hope he knew what he was doing and wasn't bluffing out of his ass. My father just smirked and said "I'll do you one better Doctor. I'll let you walk out with her if you just bow down and swear your allegiance to the states."

I turned around and stared at my father with shock. Why would he do this? My mother had the only smirk on her face. I wanted to be the one who could settle this issue but it was obvious I was only a pawn in this mental game.

The Doctor looked at me and mouthed the words sorry. He looked at my father and retorted "That isn't going to happen and you know it."

My father's smugness became apparent; he shrugged his shoulders, and replied "It was worth the try. Guys you know what to do now."

As if on cue the guys grabbed me from behind and placed a blade close to my neck. I was shaking in fear now. There's no way in hell I expected this to be my father's grand plan. He cared for me too much and the fact was all this time I was just some disposable toy. This angered me to very bone. I couldn't do anything at all now. I felt helpless.

The Doctor the moment I was grabbed cried out "No!"

My father said walking over to me with his own blade "She is quite the specimen, the embodiment of perfection in its physical form. She has brains, beauty, and will bow down before her master's feet. Funny thing is since she's connected to you emotionally, I no longer can tell her what to do. This still doesn't stop me from putting her down like the animal she is."

The panicked expression on my face showed everything now as my father took the blade and grazed it over my skin slowly. He asked tauntingly "In your professional opinion as a Doctor, where should I make the first incision?"

The Doctor's countenance showed no expression. He was indeed scared though I could sense it. He commanded "Don't do this commander."

My father's expression was amused and he asked mockingly "Under what authority do you have the right to command me?"

Right then he changed. His eyes blazed and his walk had this sort of confidence I only imagined when being told his stories. He retorted "If you're looking for the highest authority then look no further. I AM THE HIGHEST AUTHORITY! I will do everything in my power to help her. I am giving you a chance to redeem yourself. I warn you. I'm not going to be as merciful the second time around."

My father huffed simply dismissing such a statement and the other guards surrounded the Doctor. The Doctor simply went into his pocket and pulled out his sonic screwdriver. My father really just brushed it off thinking it was some mindless contraption. My dad should have known about his ultimate weapon of choice and been scared shitless from the stories he's told me about it.

The Doctor activated it and the pitch coming out was hurting everyone's ears. I fell on the floor and he ran up to grab me. I looked at his face while still covering my ears from hearing the pitch. He mouthed the word run and I nodded in agreement towards his command. We ran back to the Tardis.

The pitch was letting up and the guards began to come at us. I punched a couple of faces and kicked a couple of asses to clear our way towards the Tardis. But the utter ease of getting to the Tardis stopped when my father stood in front of the Tardis doors.

The Doctor and I came to a halt. My father was holding a gun straight at me and he said "You obviously thought it would be that easy Doctor. I'm disappointed."

I spoke up then "No, Father you're the disappointment. All you wanted to do was bring chaos with the control of time. I've seen what you wanted to do. You're the one who sent Torchwood after me."

He nodded "Of course I did. You were taking too long to bring back the Doctor that and I knew about your beacon. I knew you would cave under pressure after all you were meant to be just a doll and once we got what we wanted you would have been destroyed."

I ran towards my father ready to take him out but the Doctor pulled me back. He said to me "Don't do this to your self. If anything he isn't worth it. This is what he wants from you. He wants you to show the animal you are."

That was when my father took the opportunity to shoot me. The bullet dug into my abdomen, I froze in shock, my eyes widened as I slid and collapsed on ground.

My father said menacingly "I had to put her down like the animal she is."

The Doctor angrily looked at my father then. He sonicked the pipes above my father and they collapsed on top of him. He lifted me up bridal style applying pressure onto my wound. He said before leaving "She's still a living being."

He kicked in the door to enter the Tardis and closed it immediately with his foot. He ran straight to the medical bay and laid me on the table. He lifted my shirt and muttered a soft gentleman like apology.

He cleaned the outside of the wound and stated "I'm going to have to dig into the wound to properly clean it and actually remove the bullet."

I whimpered and said "That's gonna hurt."

He asked as if needing permisson "Are you gonna let me do it though?"

I replied "As long as you can knock me out or distract me from the pain I'll let you do what you have to."

He let out a small laugh and grabbed a set of tweezers and stated "I got just the thing."

I was confused about what he meant with his words. Then his face was getting closer and closer to mine. The next thing I knew he gave me an open mouth kiss which I reciprocated. (I had to admit for being a 905 year old Time Lord who hasn't been affectionate for awhile he has amazing kissing technique.)

Then I felt a twinge on my side and I grunted in pain into the kiss. He smiled, pulling out the bullet, and analyzed it. I glared at him for his sudden distraction that worked amazingly well. (I was also mad that he seriously just stopped once he pulled out the bullet.)

He went back to cleaning my wound again and stitching me back up in one piece. I sat up and gave my thanks. Then I slapped him across the face for the kiss.

He said clenching his jaw "That really hurt."

I stated "That was for the kiss."

The Doctor retorted "You said distraction and I gave you one that was extremely effective might I add."

I asked moving on from the subject "What is there left?"

He answered "Calling off Torchwood, unless you get off on the whole manhunt thing."

I nodded and stood silent as the Doctor called Captain Jack Harkness to call off the manhunt. I had to admit I didn't think my adventure would end like this. I sighed when he explained the whole situation to Jack. Obviously he had brought down my father but why did I feel this wasn't over.

When we landed the Tardis back into my normal time line, we stepped out. I had my book bag and he said "You know I pulled a couple of strings and my friend said he has space for one more in his place."

I laughed and said "Thanks but I'll try to get by on my own from now on. I have a sneaking suspicion that this won't be the last time we cross paths Doctor."

He smiled widely and told me "I hope it's not, Genesis."

I started at him with a perplex look then. He tilted his head to the side and asked "What?"

I replied "You called me Genesis."

He said "Yeah Genesis. Since you we called Code name Grissom. I thought you should have a proper name. Genesis fits you. It's the beginning of something new, the book which speaks of the image of perfection, and speaks of freedom."

I leaned back and thought about it. "You're right, Doctor. It does fit."

He smiled at me and said "Well then till we cross again, Genesis."

I walked up towards him and hugged him. I was holding his jacket tightly with my fist. I looked up at his face and brought my lips to his, brushing them softly against his. I parted as quickly as I went for it though. I said "A proper kiss for helping the damsel."

He chuckled then and I wished him luck on finding his next companion. I stood at the spot which he left me at. I stared as he walked off back into the tardis. I waved and blew one last kiss towards him. He shook his head smirking at my goodbye and went off into some other point in time.

As I was walking along in Cardiff I ran into Jack and he asked me multiple things about my relationship with the Doctor. I was a bit skeptic about telling him about my adventures with the Doctor but eventually I gave in.(What's the worst that could happen between two companions of the Doctor's?) Then he made an offer I couldn't refuse.

This was truly a new beginning just like the Doctor said.
