The New Girl On Bannerman Road

Chapter 1

Luke was siting in the kitchen next to Sarah Jane eating breakfast when Clyde burst through the front door.

"Clyde what's wrong! Is there something chasing you?" Sarah Jane said getting up and look out the door.

"No it's a girl. A new girl on Barneman road." Clyde said.

"Well she isn't being stalked by a clown is she? Because if she's not then she's not getting involved." Sarah Jane said.

"Oh Sarah Jane she already is" Clyde replied "I scanned her with that thingy you gave me and she registers as extraterrestrial being!"

"Well she could be an alien, maybe and slythien? What did she look like? Did she look like a slythien?" Sarah Jane asked.

"Heck no! She was gorgeous though!" Clyde replied dreamily.

Just then Rani burst through the door.

"New girl?" Sarah Jane asked.

"Yea!" Rani said breathlessly "she's just walking around the neighbourhood."

At that precise moment someone knocked on the door.

"I've got it" Sarah Jane said.

When she opened the door was a sight to see: a teenage girl with very very curly brown/blonde hair, creamy skin, and green eyes that Sarah swore she'd seen before.

"Hello, I'm _______ , I'm new here." ______ said brightly.

"Hello ________, I'm Sarah Jane Smith. Why don't you step inside my house and have a cuppa?" Sarah Jane asked.

"Uhh... sure" ______ said.

As they entered the house Luke stared at her in awe. How was her hair sooooo curly? And how were her eyes so familiar? Clyde elbowed Luke hard in the stomach.

"Why don't you sit down?" Sarah Jane suggested.

"Ok" ______ replied.

"I'm a journalist, I'd like an interview, would you care if I asked you a few quick questions?" Sarah Jane asked.

"No, not at all" ______ said  

"What is the name of one of the oldest races in all the galaxies?" Sarah Jane suddenly turned serious.

"The Timelords" _______ said without hesitation. Clyde and Rani looked at Luke who nodded.

"Who are the aliens from Skaro?" Sarah Jane asked.

"The Daleks, people say they are one of the most brutal races in the universes, but I don't think they are I think they should be pitied." ______ said plainly as if talking of the weather.

"Really, how so?" Sarah Jane asked equally interested as the others now.

"Basically all a Dalek can say from the outside is exterminate!, I am a Dalek, or shoot someone." _______ said but Sarah Jane interrupted her.

"Exactly so why should they be pitied?" Sarah Jane asked.

"You didn't let me finish" _______ said "for one thing. I Am A Dalek: means. I am ______. Exterminate: means things like I love you or you are my friend. Shooting: means... it means(sniff)... that a Dalek is crying." She finished in a teary voice.

"How did you come to know this information?" Sarah Jane asked in a much warmer and softer voice than before."I've been trapped inside a Dalek before, had the wires stuck in my brain. I know what it's like." _____ said shakily.

"Well, I think that's enough questions, time to get going. Where do you live? I could walk you there." Sarah Jane said putting an arm around her and trying desperately to change the subject."Here's the thing the whole new girl thing was just an act to get in your house Sarah Jane. A man called the doctor sent me here because he knew he could trust you." ______ said sadly "I'm sorry."  "No it's fine it's more than fine it's an honour. Here let me show you your room." Sarah Jane said flustered.

After Sarah Jane was out of the room Clyde turned to Luke and Rani.

"She just trusted her like that. Just because she mentioned the doctor?" Clyde asked.

"I don't know but it is really weird I think we should investigate." Rani said.

"No. No, no, no. I don't think that that's a good idea." Luke replied hastily.

"Luke's just not agreeing 'cause he fancies her!" Clyde said.

"Yea" Rani agreed.

"I do not" Luke whined.

"Do too!" Clyde insisted.

"Do not!" Luke said.

"Prove it, if you don't you'll help us find out more about her" Rani said firmly.

"Fine" Luke said after a long pause.
