I had run as fast as I could to try to catch up to Melody, but she was fast. Inhumanly fast, I was pretty sure she was a time lord, I had thought about it more since I had scanned her in that hospital, and there are many species with two hearts. There was no way she was time lord. It was impossible, right? I don't know, and I hate not knowing. First, at that hospital, she she wasn't supposed to know me, she almost said my name, and she seemed to recognize me. But our meeting just now.......only complicated things further. First, she just so happened to be walking my when the TARDIS landed, I had seen her looking at it strangely, almost as if she.......knew it? But that was impossible. And then that odd bit about her not having a real last name, did she not have parents? Well, she had said that she did, and even defended them, but she gave me the strangest look when I commented on how surly they weren't very good parents, she had looked at me as if there was something blatantly obvious that I was missing, some clue to who she was right under my nose. Hmmm, she was obviously alien, and knew me somehow, perhaps she's from my future? A future companion of some sort? But she was young, just a kid really, it would be too dangerous for her. She had a light in her eyes though, a light of recklessness, and of longing, longing to see starts and planets, a longing I only knew too well. And she reminded me of someone......Jenny. Oh Jenny, she had been Melody's age too, she had even blonde hair like Melody's. But their eyes were very different. Jenny had soft, green eyes, but Melody had bright blue eyes that almost seemed to glow, what alien had glowing blue eyes? None that I knew right off the top of my head. Ug, this was frustrating. She obviously knows me, but I don know her. Like that lady I met once... River Song, Professor Song, that was her name. That was just one more person to meet in my future, great. But Melody wasn't like Jenny in personality, really. But actually, I hardly knew either of the girls, how could I make judgements about them? It was just.....when I had been around Jenny, I had felt, almost protective of her, I had wanted to keep her safe and secure. I felt the same way around Melody. Odd feeling. It brought back memories of being a father....back on Galifrey. Galifrey, Melody and Jenny would have loved to see Galifrey. They would laugh, and run in the crimson red grass, capped with the white snow of the dawn of winter. Though I could fantasize all I want, I can't make that happen though. Because of me, Galifrey didn't exist. Because I was to slow, Jenny died. Because I pressured her for answers, Melody ran off. Oh yes, I could fantasize to my hearts' content, but both of the girls were gone, and I doubted there was anything I could do to bring them back. So I just stood there, on that street corner, waiting to see if Melody would come back.
