You know how intriguing it is to see my traffic for this story and how I have people from, like, Suriname visiting my story? That's so cool! I've never even hard of that country! My story is very popular with the United states, followed by the United Kingdom. You guys are all awesome c: Makes my day!~
Soo it's Christmas!~ Here's my present to all of my silent readers out there!
I'll definitely be slower posting because I finally went through my boxes from my last move and found my old binder...and learned not only did I not write as much as I thought, but man did it suck. Plus it's starts with the Martha Jones season and so I'm still stuck with how I'm going to transition into that one! So I'll have to refrain from posting like 5 chapters a week, sorry guys!
Disclaimer: I only own my OC and anything that has to do with her.
My howls eventually stopped, but I completely ignored the world around me. I watched the empty skies, just waiting for my con man to return to me. I refused to believe that he wasn't coming back. I grew furious, but it was only to cover up the overwhelming feeling of being lost. What was I to do without him? He was my pack mate. Vaihtaja's can't survive without their packs!
I wasn't sure how long I sat there hoping that Jack would come back. I stared up at the stars as the lost feeling began to consume me, making me feel like I was hyperventilating and I wished I could cry. Canines, we aren't exactly equipped like humans and I could just bawl my eyes out.
"...History says there was an explosion here. Who am I to argue with history?"
My ears twitched upon hearing Doctor's voice. I whined, knowing I was going to have to leave this perch. Question was, where would I go?
"Come one Khaz, hurry!" Rose called out to me. I looked over my shoulder to see her walking towards me.
I let out something between a groan and a growl, tuning to look back at where Jack disappeared.
"I told Jack I'd look after you, so either I drag you back or you follow." He sounded stern, but I caught the hint of a teasing tone in his voice. "Besides, wouldn't you like to be a Vaihtaja again?" He asked as he rubbed my scruff. Reluctantly I followed him back to the TARDIS.
As soon as we walked in Doctor launched himself into the ship. I, however, was a tad bit more cautious and fell behind Rose. It's been a long while since I had set a foot in one of these. I could feel the life within the ship, but I couldn't communicate with her, that was only granted to the Time Lords. Still I could sense her there and I silently greeted her, knowing without a doubt that she could hear me.
"It's alright Khaz." Rose smiled encouragingly at me. She bowed down and held her hand out, trying her best to coax me father in. I wondered if she still thought I was just one weird stray.
The Time Lord still rattled on and on about nanogenes and other stuff I could care less about. I walked off to the side and melted in the nearly non-existent shadows. Just as I flopped myself down Doctor excitedly said, "Fantastic!"
"Look at you, beaming away like you're Father Christmas." Rose teased him.
"Who says I'm not?" He asks, then in a rushed mutter says, "Red bicycle when you were twelve."
"What?"
I couldn't help the snort that slipped out, my tail twitched slightly. They were such goofballs.
"And everybody lives Rose. Everybody lives!" He cries. "I need more days like this."
My mood turns dark again. I can't tell for sure what Jack did, but I know he did something stupid involving that bomb and something told me that it made Doctor a liar. He wouldn't have just left me if he was planning on doing a simple task of leaving it.
I catch Rose's gaze just as I heave a sigh. "Doctor."
"Go on, ask me anything. I'm on fire."
She whirled around so her back was to me. "What about Jack?"
My head lifted and I gazed up at the Time Lord.
"Why did he say good-bye?"
He didn't answer right away, nor did I expect him to. Really, he didn't need to, his silence said it all. My human had saved the day, but he wasn't going to survive to see the day end.
But the, the greatest thing happened. I'd forever be in Rose's debt, she convinced him to go back for Jack, to save him! After the TARDIS jerked around a bit, we landed just inside Jack's ship. By then Rose had attempted to get Doctor to dance and they had music playing. I was the first to try and get his attention, barking at him at the entrance of the TARDIS.
"Well hurry up then!" Rose hollered from behind me.
Jack stumbled out of his ship and onto Doctor's. I raced at him and reared up so that my front paws were stretched out and on his chest. I barked at him, giving him an earful and going all off on him, but he just picked me up and gave me a great big hug.
"Close the door, will you? Your ship's about to blow up."
I tossed a snarl over my shoulder, my way of telling him that he was interrupting us. Jack released me so I could return to all fours and he could close the TARDIS doors.
"Welcome to the TARDIS."
"Much bigger on the inside."
"You'd better be." The Time Lord darkly said, confusing the poor man.
"I think what the Doctor is trying to say is you may cut in." The two laughed and I let out a bark or two, racing past them and perching on the opposite side of the console. I looked up at the couple with my tongue lulling out and my tail flying back and forth.
Without warning Doctor cried out to Rose. "I've just remembered." He smiles brightly.
"What?" She asks as the Time Lore starts to snap his fingers and dance.
"I can dance!"
"Actually, Doctor, I thought Jack might like this dance."
I peered a little more around the console to get a good look at what was to come.
"I'm sure he would, Rose. I'm absolutely certain. But who with?" He smirks and Jack clears his throat.
I barked with glee, loving their antics. Rose snickered as she walked to Doctor and started dancing and twirling around. I danced away whenever they came near, barking and lowering my front half to the floor.
Maybe, just maybe, the Time Lord wasn't all that bad. Rose didn't seem too horrible at all. Perhaps I could expand my pack, let them be a part of it too.
I'd have to be on my toes, Aspen would be waiting. Prowling in my mind and waiting for the perfect opportunity. Even now, I could feel her, more so than I have ever felt her.
Oh look, an Author's Note at the bottom! Okay so yeah, this was the end of the episode. Only took 12 chapters...
This is where we shall veer off a bit, call them filler chapters before the next episode...well filler but important for my character and you all get to know more about her. I kind of like that it ends right here, that way I'm not giving you guys a cliff hanger for Christmas!
Merry Christmas everyone!~ And if you don't celebrate it (honestly I don't really either, all we do in my family is just bake/cook and fear the clean up afterwards) then happy holidays and enjoy the wintery weather!~ (unless your like me and just get bone chilling weather and icky rain that makes shopping for mundane things around Christmas time that much more terrifying. people so don't know how to drive here.)
