The Doctor stood, breathing heavily. Regeneration could take a lot out of you. On the other hand, it could also put a lot of new traits into you. The Doctor was eager to look in the mirror and take in his new face.
However, a beeping coming from the TARDIS console stopped him. According to the monitor, he had landed in Cardiff in the year 2005, but the TARDIS had also detected abnormally high energy levels.
"Odd", the Doctor muttered, "that type of psychic energy shouldn't be found on Earth." As he said this he was surprised by the sound of his new voice. It sounded strong.
"Not very fitting for the act of cowardliness I just committed, but at least I can call myself the Doctor now that I've regenerated", he thought, for his memory of the past day was gone.
The persistent beeping interrupted his moment of sadness and he looked down at his clothes. "Can't go running around on Earth in 2005 like this. Attracts too much attention."
He headed to the TARDIS's wardrobe. Once there, he grabbed a t-shirt and a black leather jacket. The beeping could be heard throughout the TARDIS now, so he didn't have time to look in the mirror. He would have plenty of time for that later.
