12 days, why does he have to change?
I have already lost everything, I'm going to lose my doctor now.
I wake up, it's January 1st, new year! I excitedly hop out of bed and grab my breakfast. This is how my typical weekend day goes.
9:00 - I grab breakfast, usually cereal, and watch BBC breakfast.
9:30 - I head upstairs and pick out an outfit.
9:35 - I do my makeup which takes about 30 minutes.
10:00 - im ready.
As soon as it hits 10:00, I hear the usual sound of the TARDIS! It's the Doctor!
"Doctor!" I hug him so tight I think he can barely breathe.
"Hello, Cooke!"
"I've missed you!" I smile
"Me too! Let's go!" He pulls me into the TARDIS and presses a few buttons.
"Where are we off to?" I ask.
"Will you travel with me until I regenerate?" He asks, seriously.
"Of course! Don't mention the regeneration though - I'm scared. " I look at the floor.
"No, Alice, don't be scared, I'll still be me."
He throws open the TARDIS doors and I see we are in the town where I grew up, but it's covered in cameras.
"What's happened!?" I ask, confused.
"CCTV. I don't think it's the police that are watching!" The Doctor whispers, investigating the camera.
"Who's stupid idea was this?" I laugh, kicking the camera.
"No! Alice don't kick the camera -" before he can finish, I wake up in the middle of nowhere.
"Doctor!" I shout, scared.
"I don't know where I am! Where am I?"
I stand up and walk around the room, it's dark, but I can see enough to notice a figure. It's breathing sounds funny.
"Silence will fall!" It hisses. I scream and turn around. Wait. Why am I scared again? What have I forgotten? I shrug and wander round the room, I bang on the doors but no one comes.
"It's pointless trying to get out!" Says an old woman's voice, "the Doctor can't save you now." She whispers.
"Why!?"
"Because Eleventh's hour is over!" She says.
"Not for twelve days yet! What do you want from me?" I ask.
"Oh, it's just entertaining to see you try to escape."
"Why?"
"Think of it like a puzzle, a game, the sooner you get out, the more time you get with the Doctor before he regenerates..." hisses the woman.
"Alright. Tell me the rules then."
