Alone

Love. What is love? A feeling of emotion people feel when they believe someone is right.

But what's the point in love...if you can never feel it?

Always, humans believe they have found love. But love only tears apart the soul and burns the last bit of hope you may have.

That's what happened when The Doctor tried to save me. I had been alone for a year, and I thought I could trust him. If only I knew his real motives.

"Day 287: Lonely same as ever. I did make another soufflé though...didn't turn out as well. The Daleks returned again today, banging on the wall as hard as ever. I swear, if I ever find a way out, I'll crush them all. Well, back to my boring life I suppose."

I turn off the recorder, briskly walking to the kitchen. I browse through the several racks of foods and boxed cereals until I come upon my favorite snack; peaches. I grab the can and lounge on my hammock. Oh, what a life I live. Boring, I know, but at least I have things to occupy my time. I turn on my favorite classical music and begin to relax.

Suddenly, a voice comes through the intercom.

"Hello? Hello, is anyone in there? Hello?"

Astounded, I run to the com.

"Hello?! Hello, can you hear me? Are you real? Actually, properly real?"

The voice replies,

"Of course I'm real! Where are you? Where is this coming from?"

I flick off my music.

"The Dalek Asylum. Below the Mothership. Have you come to rescue me?"

The voice hesitates.

"Map out where you are, we will bet there in a jiff."

They sign off, and I do my research.

Hacking into the system, I retrieve a map of the ship, pinpointing my location and the direction they're heading towards.

"Good, good, thank you."

Nodding, I switch off the security force field, and allow them through. If I'm going to be rescued, I might as well trust him.

At least, it sounded like a him.

Within minutes, they were back on.

"Might I ask, what's your name?"

"Oswin. Oswin Oswald. Might I ask the same?"

"I'm The Doctor. Just The Doctor."

I smile, reaching for a fixture on the left of my control panel and beginning to get a visual.

I am met face-to-face with a man with floppy hair and...

"Blimey, what a chin." I whisper under my breath.

He looks annoyed for a second, then continues. Soon, he is joined by a ginger woman, and a dusty blond haired man. He introduces them as Amy and Rory.

"Hello! Oswin Oswald, pleased to meet you."

Amy nods and Rory smiles. The trio begins to head towards some of the empty escape pods. Hmm, why would they be in those? Curiosity I suppose.

I turn off my com for a bit and nibble on my peaches. Sometimes I wish it would be like this all the time. Someone to talk to. Someone to...

I stop that thought before it comes.

No.

"Oswin, we have a problem."
