The Doctor's Remorse

by Dragon123454

Ten years. That's how long it's been since I met him: The Doctor. Ten years since I saw that beautiful blue box, ten years since he asked me to help him, since we ran. Since we saved the world again, and then he left. I've missed him, but I had to move on. Some people have normal lives, and only a few are forced in. My name is Katherine, and I never expected to meet him again.

10. Chapter 10

In "The Angels Take Manhattan, River Songs book says that her eye color is blue, but Alex Kingston's eye color is green.

We all walked back to the board room. The doctor gave me a weird look, almost embarrassment, and asked if I happened to have any gold on me.

"Yeah," I said ad handed him my small gold bracelet. He took it and clipped it to where his implants still were, which I found odd. He and River sat next to each other, and I sat on the other side of River.

"Now what happened to the Cyberplanner?" asked the head nurse.

"He's still here" I answered

This caused uproar. "So you brought a Cyberman into our main center?" the general yelled

"No no no! He and the Doctor are sort of…switching."

"How can we know it's really him?" he said.

"I can tell!" I defended.

"How do we know you not with them?" another yelled at me.

"She's not!" River stood up.

"How do we know we can trust any of you?" one soldier yelled.

"Yeah, how?" another responded.

A wave of angry voices washed over a voice yelled louder that the rest.

"Silence!" the room went quiet. I looked in the direction of the voice.a women, nearly transparent, stood in the doorway.

"Who the Hell are you?" the general asked incredulously.

"I am the doctor's TARDIS. You may call me Idris."

I gaped at her, and I noticed everyone, especially the doctor, was doing the same.

"I need to speak with the Doctor, Kate, and River alone. Everyone else, out."

Surprisingly, everyone else left silently. When they were gone I stood up and walked over to Idris.

"Hello." I said hesitantly.

"Hello child." she said, and gave me a small smile. "I would shake hands, but I'm only a projection." she turned to the doctor. "Hello my thief."

"I thought I would never see you again." he said in a low voice.

She smiled and turned to River. "And you must be professor River Song. A pleasure to meet you."

"The pleasure is all mine." River responded, still in shock.

"Why did you need to talk to us?" I asked.

"Has anything strange happened to you lately? Seen things that weren't there? Heard things that no one said. Known about things that would happen seconds before they happened?"

"All of the above."

"that's what I thought." she nervously paced the room. She sighed, "I'm about to tell you something that is going to change your life. Are you ready?"

"No." I said hesitantly.

She smiled, "good." she sighed again and then spoke quickly.

"You're not human!"

"What?"

"You…you are the soul of a TARDIS."
