Chapter 3:

"Alice, listen to me."The Doctor said seriously. "My name is just the Doctor, and that is all."

I saw that he was lying, but decied to drop the subject. I stared at the doors of the TARDIS as I walked to them. Maybe the Doctor lied about Time and Space, just like how he lied about his own name, and we're still back in Cardiff.

"So, what's behind those doors?" I asked the Doctor loudly, still facing the doors.

"You're going to have to go out and see for yourself." he replied cheekly.


I opened the doors slowly, not really expecting what was on the other side.

It was bright, but not too bright. It was easy to tell that it wasn't Earth.

There were lots of flowers, but they were moving. They were literally moving on their own, walking on their roots.

They had petals going along the stem, and leaves by where the petals would could tell it was a flower by its shape, even the leaves and the petals were oddly shaped. The stem and leaves were blue and the petals were leafy green. (The Doctor took a moment to explain that to me.)

"Welcome to the planet Zesteran." The Doctor said joyfully behind me. "What do ya think?"

I looked around at the green sky and red grass. "Well, its... Colorful..."

"One of the top ten planets, labled 3rd best!"

"What about the first two, then?" I asked with a smirk.

The Doctor walked around, admiring the weird plants. "Everyone gos to the first one, planet of the coffee shops. The second one... Well not a very friendly place. "He added muttering the last part.

"Well, is this place safe then?" I asked. "Can I breathe and move around?"

The Doctor nodded. "Well of course you can! You wouldn't want to just stand there and look like a total bafoon, would you?"

I shook my head as an answer. "This is such a beautiful place." It was the only thing I can think of saying. The Doctor walked ahead of me looking at the beautiful I was pretty sure they were plants. It was silent for about five minutes, until the Doctor began to talk again. "I should introduce you to the High King, King Zest-Aven. Basically, all the people of Zesteran have 'Zest' in their names." He pointed.

"Do the people here look human?"

He gave that goofy smile, which told me I had to wait. "So, off to meet the King then?" I nodded and smiled, wondering what else the planet had in store for me.

"I hope you're a good runner." Before I could even process what he had said, he grabbed my hand and dashed off.

"Doctor!" I called as we ran. "Why are we all of a sudden run- (I almost fell over my own two feet, thank you my clumsiness.) Why are we running?"

"Sorry, it's sort of a habit for me." We began to finally slow down, which for me was good. I was never a good runner."I also wanted for us to get there faster." I looked down at our hands and realized he was still holding my hand. The Doctor must have noticed because of the awkward face I had. He let go of my hand, feeling a bit embarrassed, and looked at the sky. "Sorry..." He mumbled.

I looked up and it dawned on me that there was a huge crystal palace. It's high blue walls glistened in the sunlight. It was a tall and beautiful sight.

"Wow..." It was all I can manage to say. It was still obvious that I was amazed. "It's... Awesome!" I exclaimed.

The Doctor grabbed my wrist and led me inside. It was more beautiful on the inside than the outside. The only thing was that I felt like I've been there before, almost like Da Ja Vu. "Like one of the dreams..." I told myself, a little too loudly.

"What was that?" The Doctor asked curiously.

I shook my head. "It was nothing, just something on my mind." He still looked a bit curious, but kept walking along.

I can't have been here before, I told myself. I have never been here before.

"It was just a feeling... A dream." I mumbled. I looked up to see that the Doctor was talking to something, possibly a guard of the castle.

The guard didn't look human at all. Of course, I was on a different planet, and the aliens looked weird. Well, to them I would be the alien. It looked like a giant glob of a greenish purple, of some sort. It had a strange slimy liquid coming it's flabs of (Was that skin?) whatever it was.

I ran up to the Doctor, still keeping my eyes on the creature. "Do they all look like that?" I asked him in a whisper.

"Well, they are all different colors." He responded.

"Are they, ya know, nice?" I asked quietly, as the guard let us through a huge door.

"Really Alice? You ask way too many questions!"

"Of course I would. A strange man just took me to a different planet in about an hour ago. What do you expect me to do?" I argued.

"Usually, you don't ask that many questions." he said in a low voice.

I sighed sadly. "I'm not most people. I'm different."

The Doctor didn't say anything after that. I didn't know if it was because he didn't have anything left to say to me, or because we were arguing in the throne room of the High King, Zest-Aven.

The king was an even bigger glob than the guard. He was a light blue with orange mixed in. A bunch of sticks that were held together by red grass on his head, made me guess that it was a crown.

The Doctor straightened his Bow tie and bowed, in which he gestured for me to the same. "King Zest-Aven." The Doctor spoke, wearing his boyish grin. "It's been years since I last saw you. How's that daughter of yours?"

"Ah, Doctor, she is fine, but I see you have brought someone new to my kingdom. What happened to that yellow-haired woman? The one with the name of a plant from the planet Earth." The King spoke.

The Doctor's eyes were glassy as he gave the King a sad smile. "She stayed on Earth with her family. Rose left a while ago."

I didn't know who the Doctor was talking about, so I gave him yet another question to get rid of the idea of the Rose girl. He looked as if he was about to cry just thinking of her. "Um, Doctor, how can I understand what he's saying.

"TARDIS Translator. I'll explain later." He added, as he saw the confusion on my face.

"And what shall be your name?" The King interrupted.

"I'm- A-A... My name is Alice Quinn, your highness." I stuttered nervously.

"As you should already know, I am the King of this world. King Zest-Aven, the seven hundredth High King of Zesteran." He spit some green slime onto the floor. I looked at the Doctor, who just gave me two thumbs up. I spit on the floor as well, and the king gave me a smile. Well, I believe it was a smile.

I Think I might actually get this whole 'time and space' thing, I thought.


Ok, I did say I wasn't going to post it after the first half. but here's the rest.
