Hello, my lovely readers!
This week, I bring you a story which I thought of during orchestra as I was packing up my cello. My friend Calynn had said something (I forget what) and I, being rather hyper yesterday, shouted "GALLIFREY RISES!" Then it ocured to me...what if the Time Lords had all been pessimists?
Enjoy!

In Which…
Time Lords are Pessimists
The President swished into the gigantic meeting room where all of the Time Council sat waiting. He stepped up to the podium and raised his staff, causing the room to fall silent.
"The plan has been put into action! Tonight, either Gallifrey falls or GALLIFREY RISES!" he called enthusiastically. There were a few brief seconds of pause before the rest of the room responded.
"GALLIFREY FALLS!" the Time Lords called in unison.
"Gallifrey rises!" screamed a single extremely hyper Time Lady named the Writer. The President lowered his staff and pouted, sulking away. Maybe next time…
