The process had started and Ashley and Kaitlyn were still in the TARDIS.
"Ash, Kaitlyn," I said.
They both knew what was happening.
"Bekah don't change to much," Ashley said, "I'll miss this version of you."
I smiled at her. Then it started. I was picturing Ari and Amy in my mind. When the energy stopped. I saw the Doctor looking at me. He was pouting. I knew that I was ginger. I felt myself grow about 6 inches. And when I looked in the mirror that was in the console room I saw that I was skinny. My hands went to my arms.
"No cuts," I said my voice going higher. "And by the look on your face Doctor I am ginger. Skinny, long hair and tall."
"You look amazing, Rebel," Kaitlyn said, "But you need a different hat."
"Your eyes are still brown," Ashley said, "I told you that you loved that color."
I smiled and started to sing a song, "Say something I'm giving up on you."
Ashley and Kaitlyn joined in, "I'll be the one if you want me too."
I didn't want to freak them out. The human memories were leaving. I held on to the ones about my friends.
"I will leave if you want?" The Doctor said.
"I don't care," I said even though I did, "I need someone to look after them though."
I knew that Kaitlyn had seen all my regenerations but she would still be in shock. I passed out.

The Doctor's P.O.V.
I saw her pass out and reached for my fez. Amy handed it to me. I walked over to Ashley and Kaitlyn. I remembered that Kaitlyn was Rebel's angel. I handed the fez to Ashley. They were crying and smiling.
"Don't worry," I said to them, "She will be alright. I am staying here and talking to you guys. Amelia Pond will you come and help me?"
Amelia walked over and hugged them. She was better at this than I would ever be. I knew that she wasn't crying because she knew.
"Hey, girls," Amy said, "She will remember you when she wakes up."
"I am already awake," Rebel said.

My P.O.V.
"Hello, everyone," I said still getting used to my higher voice. "I am stable but my eyes may flicker from brown to red."
I saw Ashley with Theta's fez in her hand. We all smiled and I flipped a switch. I had to be somewhere. I had to cross paths with myself when I was human.
"Stay here," I said, "I have to do this alone."
I walked out of the TARDIS, followed by the Doctor. Hench the dream I had had as a teenager. I saw myself and knew it was the first time I had considered. We reached her, me, and I knelt.
"Hey," the Doctor said.
Human me looked up. I remembered thinking that it was a dream.
"Hello, Rebekah," I said, "Be strong and stay on the path. There is a lot out there for you. You will meet so many people named Ashley/Ashlie, they will all be your friends. Think of this when the time comes. Just stay strong, there are people who will be there for you let them in and they will not let you fall that far."
Then the Doctor spoke, "Rebekah stay strong."
We both walked back to my TARDIS and closed the doors.
Amy looked at me in shock, "You're ginger like me."
We all laughed at that. I went to them and gave them each a hug in turn. I winked at Amy, who then giggled.
"Is anyone going to tell me what just happened?" Theta asked in confusion.
Amy said, "I will later. But for now we have to go."
"Bye, Amy, Doctor," Ashley and Kaitlyn said.
They left. I looked at my friends and decided something.
"Hello," I said as if for the first time, "My name is Rebel."
Kaitlyn knew what I was doing, "Hello, I'm Kaitlyn."
Ashley followed suit, "Hello, I'm Ashley."
I laughed feeling like a child, "Look at us. It's like we're meeting for the first time, again."
