"What do I say when they see I'm not hurt?"
"Just tell them..you've already seen a doctor."
He smiled and there it was. It was over. My whole life's worth of adventure was over. Those few hours were just abridged to two short minutes. My adventure was just like the line in between the birth and death. It's not even noticeable. Those two minutes saved me from destruction, but set me back into ordinary life.
The TARDIS started shaking again. He pulled the switch and the terrible but hopeful noise started up again.
"We are here."
"I don't want to go."
"It's only for a moment. I will come back. Promise."
The Doctor hugs me and a new warmth is flung upon me like someone who is trustworthy and understands. He handed me a silvery key. "Visit me sometime."
I look up at him and smile. "I will."
He wiggles his bowtie, points at me, and winks.
I say my goodbyes to the Doctor and Loki. I stop at the girl though. Her name was Haylee. She was cool. I had a feeling that we were one in the same. Like every girl our age, we share that same likeness for adventure and crazy goofy men with fantastic hair (cough Loki and the Doctor cough), we were doomed to be great friends. "It was nice to meet you, Haylee. Don't get yourself in any more trouble, you hear?" I smile and hug her.
"Thanks for saving me."
"Not a problem."
The Doctor opens the door for me.
"Don't forget about me."
He hugs me again and whispers in my ear, "How can I, Chelbi Dulin?"
A tear rushes down my face as I start out the door. The TARDIS once again makes that awful noise that brought hope to many. That beautifully blue police box began to disappear and I told myself to walk away knowing it would never be the same. I guess it was my time to take action and do just as the Doctor instructed me.
