The Lakes {Anakin Skywalker}

Chapter Two

Aliens of London Part 1 of 2

The following morning Maia had gotten ready changing into more modern clothes that Idris had provided for her but she still kept her lightsaber with her and then spent an hour after she woke up and got ready meditating and reassuring Ani that she was okay through the force before he had to leave on the mission that he was assigned the previous day. Knowing that he would be pretty busy with that and they wouldn't get to communicate much until the mission was over.

Rose had knocked on the door right after she had finished meditating, they had become friends fairly easily the previous night which both girls were happy about. Maia opened the door with a smile as she was slipping on the brown leather jacket that she found on her bed after her meditation session. The girl smiled when she realized that it was a replica of the one her dad wore. She made sure that her saber was camouflaged using the force that barely took any effort to keep up and she would have it if she needed it, "Ready for your first trip Maia?"

Maia smiled at the blonde. "Yeah I feel like this is going to be exciting."

Rose grinned at her new friend, "It's your first trip, probably to a planet that you've never been to so yeah it should be exciting." The two girls linked arms and made their way to the console room.

The Doctor looked at them as they entered, "Maia have you ever been to Earth?"

She shook her head, "nope, been to several planets before but not that one, though my dad has been once or twice and told me about it, that was way before he met my mom and I was born though."

"Perfect. I thought we would drop by," he looked at Rose, "you could check on your mother and then we will be on our way again... something simple for Maia's first trip."

Rose grinned "okay sounds good to me."

"Awesome." The two girls joined the time lord at the console and he then landed them in London right off from The Powell Estate, which is where Rose lived with her mother. Once the TARDIS landed the trio exited and Maia looked around this was her first time on this planet after all. She was taking in her surroundings as Rose and The Doctor spoke, she of course was listening in case it was something that she may need to know, " How long have I been gone?" the blonde questioned.

"About twelve hours." was the answer given to her by the Doctor.

Rose nodded at him, "Right, I won't be long. I just want to see my mum."

" What're you going to tell her?"

The blonde gave him a look, ": I don't know. I've been to the year 5 billion and only been gone, what, twelve hours? No, I'll just tell her I spent the night at Shareen's. See you later. Oh, don't you disappear..." then she looked at Maia, "come on Maia I'll introduce you to my mum."

Maia followed Rose as she ran up the stairs towards the Tyler Flat. Rose entered first, calling out, " I'm back! I was with Shareen. She was all upset again. Are you in? So, what's been going on? How've you been?" she then noticed the look on her mum's face, "What? What's that face for? It's not the first time I've stayed out all night... also this is my new friend Maia Shareen, introduced her to me last night.."

Jackie was looking at her daughter in shock, and dropped her mug of tea. It smashes on the floor. Maia spoke quietly to Rose, "something tells me that it's been more than 12 hours."

Rose nodded slowly letting the dark haired girl know that she heard her, "It's you." Jackie for the moment was glossing over meeting Rose's new friend since this was the first time that she had seen her daughter in a year, with no word.

The younger blonde had a look of confusion on her face, "Of course it's me."

"Oh, my God. It's you. Oh my God." Jackie hugs Rose, who spots several different types of missing person posters on the table.
