Once Upon A Stranger Doctor (Remake)

Back Home

Some of the group were sitting on the staircases of the Senedd in Cardiff Bay with people walking around without noticing the multiple blue boxes around, the sound of the seas waving with the salty scent faintly in the air, while some of them just chatting away about their lives or any plans. Jack looks around as he reminisce about the old time. The 15th Doctor stands up and approaches Jack.

15th Doctor:"A drink for your thought?"

Jack chuckle.

Jack:"It's quite funny. No matter how many bridges I burn, somehow, at some point, I keep coming back here. Earth, 21st century, the year where it all changes."The 15th Doctor nods."I don't know how you do it. You keep and keep backing back here, intentional or not, you keep coming back to Earth and watch the same thing happen again and again. I just..."

15th Doctor:"... I questioned myself everyday about that. But at some point, I accepted it. Now, whenever I do land on Earth, I try to run towards the trouble, otherwise everything I know and love will fade away. Not just because of the paradox, but... Because it would hurt too much, All my friends, everyone I have known and loved, will love, I need to protect them. It's my home away from home. It's where I feel like I can belong. No matter how many hardships I go through, it's still my home."

Jack takes a deep breath and turn his head to the 15th Doctor and nods. The 15th Doctor smiles then walk away to the two Clementines talking to each other.

Clementine:"And it just got too wild. I almost feel sorry for crushing his big dreams, but the cake was nice."

Older Clementine chuckle.

Older Clementine:"The cake?"

Clementine:"The best cake in the universe! You should have tasted it. It was like... like eating a piece of heaven or something. It was that good."

Older Clementine:"How would you even know how Heaven will taste like?"

Clementine:"I don't know."

Both Clementine laugh.

15th Doctor:"I'm still uncertain about that event."

Clementine:"Oh, shut up. If you actually carry some money, maybe you would understand the taste of that cake."The 15th Doctor chuckle."Speaking of which, Doctor..."

15th Doctor:"Hmm?"

Clementine:"Please do us a favor... And PUT some god damn PANTS on!"

Everyone turn Clementine's shout as Clementine pull out a pair of jeans out of her pocket and throw it to the 15th Doctor, while the 15th Doctor stare confused.

15th Doctor:"What?"

Clementine:"You can't be serious about going around in a skirt. It looks weird on you."

Older Clementine:"That's what I said."

All Doctors:"It's a kilt."

Clementine:"Oh, come on. In the long run, what will history remember more; what it mostly common known as or tradition?"

15th Doctor:"Tell that to a whole ship of Scots in the 33rd century."

Clementine:"Shut up."

15th Doctor:"I swear, you Americans don't know good culture."

Clementine:"I'm still traveling with you, aren't I?"

15th Doctor:"Ah! Fair point. But I'm not putting this trouser on yet."

Clementine sighs.

Older Clementine:"At least get longer socks."

Clementine:"Think they're called stockings. That'll make it even more weird. I mean, it's already weird enough, but... That is Jamie's kilt, right?"
