Going to a Real Reality **Doctor Who Fanfiction**

Chapter 16

Molly's POV

"Molly? Molly who?" The Doctor said, obviously completely oblivious to who I was and what was going on. I sighed.

"Molly Harkness, obviously. How many Mollys do you know?" I said sarcastically.

"What? But how? Molly Harkness is s little five year old girl," the Doctor said, obviously confused.

"Yeah, maybe ten years ago I was a five year old girl. Gosh, you're supposed to be a timelord. You don't seem very good at time. Now, where's your pantry? I'm starving." I start to look around in the TARDIS, searching for some food.

"Ten years ago? I was only in the pool for about ten minutes! And how did you even get into the TARDIS in the first place?" The Doctor asked.

"Can you just get me some food first? Then I'll talk," I say to him, really, really hungry. The Doctor led me into a room that was an absolutely ginormous kitchen and took a full roasted chicken out of a cupboard. I decided not to even ask about it and started just digging in. I was sitting at a table with the Doctor across from me, and he seemed clearly amused with me stuffing chicken legs in my mouth. After about fifteen minutes I finished eating and say back in my chair. I explained how I, 9 or 10 years ago, escaped from my room and sneaked out into his TARDIS.

"When I got inside of here, I hid behind a bookcase until you went away. Then I walked over to where all of those button things are and started pressing things, and the whole machine started moving", I tried to explain. It was a little difficult for me to remember since the last time I was in here was ten years ago.

"So, I think the TARDIS started moving about six or seven minutes before I opened the doors and you came through, so you were probably only out there for a couple minutes!" The Doctor said.

"If I was only out there for a few minutes then how come it felt like years to me and I aged so much?"

"There's probably a time vortex thing, where time goes much faster. The TARDIS wasn't affected by it, but since you went outside, you got trapped in that planet's time," the Doctor explained to me. "Well, we'd better get you back home, you're mother is probably worried sick about you."

Penelope's POV

Jack and I quickly ran out of our apartment building, down the stairs, and all the way outside. I ran all around the building, trying to spot where the Doctor had put his TARDIS. Finally, I heard a noise. The noise of the TARDIS dematerializing.  I turned around to see the blue box coming into view and into clearer focus as the seconds ticked by. I ran over to the box and stopped as the Doctor flung himself out of the TARDIS, followed by an older girl. Gosh, did he just pick up a new companion in a couple hours? I called the Doctor's name, and he looked up and his eyes widened as he saw me.

"Doctor! Quick, have you seen my daughter, Molly? I think she got out, or was stolen or something, or-" I rambled on in distress. I was cut off by the Doctor putting a finger on my lips to quiet me. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said,

"Molly is right here," motioning to the older girl. The girl turned to look at me.

"Mum!" She cried as she ran towards me and smothered me in a big hug.
