Finns POV

That was so close, I really thought they were going to find out the real truth about me. Well, I mean they already know I'm alien, but the other stuff. That's strange it seems the vortex manipulator didn't transport me, I'm still here, inside the TARDIS, but it looks as if they can't see me. Oh! That's it, the Doctor has some kind of field up that doesn't allow for transporting. Darn! Well I guess I'll just go out the normal way.

~~~~~~~~~~

After that encounter I realized I was famished so I decided to head to a local diner for some food. I ordered some chips, and sat at the window, people watching. I was sat there for maybe five minutes before a familiar figure came in.

"Finn how are you? It's been ages I haven't seen you or your mum for almost a year!"

"Hello Martha, I'm doing well, yourself?"

"Couldn't be better! Say, what've you been up to recently. I haven't seen you round town."

"It's a long story, but you've travelled with the Doctor right?"

"Of course I have remember, we used to talk about him all the time!"

"Well I ran into him today with his newest companion, but that's not all. My mum finally told me all about who I am, and...." I paused for a moment trying to figure out how to say this. " Im a full Time Lord, and I'm the Doctor's son."

"Oh god, really, that was not seen. Oh, I can't believe it. How are you taking it?"

"Pretty well actually, went to see him as a human, he knows I'm a Time Lord, I ran away, he's coming after me. Pretty eventful!"

"Pretty eventful to say the least! Well it was great catching up with you, but I must be off, call me sometime!"

"Oh I will Martha, maybe some time we can go see something!'

"I'd like that! Good luck with everything!" And with that Martha was off and I was on my own again.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Since I know that the Doctor is trying to follow me, I decided going back and visiting mum would be stupid, so I sent her a text saying 'Doctor knows I have two hearts and is tracing my DNA, can't come home yet, going to asteroid outside of universe, love ya' She replied back saying that she understood and to be careful.

I set the coordinates for this asteroid on my vortex manipulator and checked to make sure I had my TARDIS manual, and then I pressed the button triggering my departure.

Next thing I knew I was on what must have been the asteroid, I remember mum saying that the few inhabitants had died, and the controller of the planet had died as well. But what was strange was I heard what seemed like a voice calling out to me.

I wandered around this wasteland filled with parts of TARDIS' searching for where this voice was coming from. I walked for what seemed like miles passing ruins of TARDIS' and equipment left from other Time Lords that had been here before me. It wasn't until I saw the lights that I had realized the voice had gotten louder. The light was the brightest shade of gold I had ever seen, so bright it took my eyes a few minutes to process what I was seeing. And that thing that the light was coming from, was a tree, and not just any tree, but the kind of tree that bore the fruit of a young TARDIS. 

I was utterly surprised to find such a rare plant in the middle of this place considering I had thought they only grew on Gallifrey. But the fact that this tree was here meant great things for me, it was something I needed to have my TARDIS function properly. Upon closer insepction of the tree, I noticed it was starting to fade, there were a couple of 'fruits' hanging from it's limps. I was able to get one of them to fall into my hands and I carefully opened it. Now with TARDIS fruit or eggs, which ever you prefer, when you open it, it gives you something that is necessary in maintaining your TARDIS. Now the thing I needed most was the conscious, and I was lucky enough that upon cracking the egg, the golden aura of a conscious flowed out. He took five minutes to float around my body and through it, before finally coalescing into a humanoid form.

"Finn O'Brian, It is finally so good to see you, I've waited for many moons to meet you! Let us begin!"
