Belle widened her eyes as the Doctor recounted the tale of his encounter with the alien royalty. Apparently royalty was something that all civilizations had, and she could only imagine it was more fascinating when those involved were aliens. There were so many interesting stories... she couldn't wait to have one of her own. She was really going to get to travel in space and time! Oh, where to go... this world had so many decades of interest in the past, and how great it would be to see the future... she wanted to go everywhere! But he had offered her one journey, so she would have to pick. Oh well. She had until tomorrow to decide.
"You're fascinating," she said. "I can't believe you go on all those adventures! Don't you have a home to go back to?"
"No." He said it plainly, like it was just another answer.
"You don't have a home?"
"Blew up," he replied. "Anyway, did I tell you about the weeping angels?"
"No, I'm not sure you did."
"Oh, well, they're monsters, some of the worst kind besides Daleks."
"You did tell me about the Daleks."
"Yes of course... do hope never to run into one. Anyway, the weeping angels..."
"Doctor," said Emma, seeing him at Granny's.
"Oh, hello, Emma."
"Is your time machine all fixed?"
"Yes, she is."
"Great. I guess you'll be leaving, then."
"Yes, but I'll probably be back."
"Really? Why?"
"I'm taking Belle with me."
"Oh."
"Yes, she wanted an adventure, so I figured why not?"
"Don't let Henry hear, he'll be jealous. He'd kill to go on an adventure like that."
"He's far too young."
"I know. That's why I'd rather he didn't hear."
"Fair enough." He frowned. "By the way, did you ever find out why your baby brother disappeared and ended up by my TARDIS?"
"Oh. Well, Gold thinks it may have been an anomaly. Like a portal."
"Or a crack in the universe..." the Doctor muttered.
"What?"
"Oh, nothing. No problem. I'll just have something to attend to."
"Oh. Good luck with whatever it is."
"Thank you. Goodbye, Emma."
"You too."
"Goodbye, Henry."
"Bye, Doctor. You're really cool. If you ever come back when I'm not a kid anymore I'd love to go travelling with you."
"Well, I'll think about it, Henry. I can't always control where she goes. Bye now."
"Bye."
The Doctor walked back into the control room of the TARDIS.
"What do you mean, you can't control it?" Belle asked, nervous.
"Oh, don't worry. I'll get you back. Eventually."
"Wait, Doctor-"
And they were moving. "So, where do you want to go?"
"Oh, I don't know. What is there that's interesting?"
"All of space and time?"
"Okay, I'll check that out."
