Author's Note

Hello! I hope you enjoyed the prologue, and enjoy this chapter. I know it is short but I am posting this at 1 AM where I'm from. I apologize if I mess something up and will sacrifice myself to the Daleks or the Weeping Angels... You guys can pick...

There was something wrong as I returned to this world in the new me, leaving twelve behind. It was a trip, that's for sure, and one that I know my mind won't forget. I sigh and look around the empty TARDIS, realizing that the thing was crashing. I quickly take an inventory of her and then myself.

"Long hair... Oh god, it's red. Soft cheeks and lips. Crap, I'm a girl... And a ginger..." I groan as I walk to my bedroom, finding that the TARDIS already set it up for my new form, an outfit already picked out on the edge of the bed.

A pair of black leggings, a blue plaid, pleated skirt and a white button up blouse with a red bowtie just dying to be worn by yours truly. I grin and quickly change so I don't have to see my female parts, just yet. I'm not ready for that at the moment.

I call out to the empty TARDIS, "Activate Voice Control for TARDIS."

"Activated." TARDIS responded, the same monotone voice I've been accustomed to for the last 1200 years of my existence.

"Hello Sexy, how are you?" I ask, walking back to the control room.

"Good, Doctor, how are you settling into your new form?" She asked in return, her tone amused by my frustration. "You are clearly frustrated by it. Expecting something else for your regeneration?"

I nod. "Yeah, well, at least I'm finally a ginger."

The TARDIS let out a laugh. "You want to be a ginger, Doctor?"

"Duh, the Ponds rocked the ginger look… I always wanted to try it on myself and see if redheads truly do have all the fun."

The TARDIS was silent for a moment, and then spoke. "Where to? Gallifrey? Earth? Skaro?"

"Anywhere but Skaro…" I say with a smile. "Please."

"Okay, Doctor. Is modern day Earth okay?"

"Go for it, I just want to leave wherever we are so I can fix up your sexy little mainframe… You have an update that's been long overdue…" I say with a smile as I see the third planet in the Milky Way getting closer with each passing second. "Somewhere in Ireland, please… Dublin perhaps?"

"Yes Doctor." She said simply. "Shutting of Voice Operator, now."

I grin as I approach the green planet and know that Earth is getting a surprise when I land as the new and improved Doctor. First things first, find out who my companions are going to be.
