The Holmes and The Doctor

The Finder

        The memories flood in like a broken dam and I gasp in shock, the memories are bitter sweet. I remember my life back on Gallifray, my family, going to the academy, then I enter the army and fight the Daleks until one day..... I walk up to the house, not just any house but my childhood home. I slowly push open the door and what I see before me is the worst thing i’ve seen sense the Time War started, my mother is laying face up with two burned patches of skin on her chest, her once lively blue eyes are open and glazed over with the look of the dead, the rest of the rooms are empty and I have hope that the rest of my family survived. With one room left I open my little brothers room to find my sister dead her arms wrapped tightly around the bundle that could only be my brother..... he was only 16 months not even old enough to say my name properly. I reach into the pocket of my uniform and pull out my pocket watch and run my fingers over the smooth cover. I run to the closest TARDIS I can find and pull down the chameleon arch and set the TARDIS to take me to earth on the steps of my fathers house and I figure out how to change the setting so I can turn into a baby. I push both buttons at once and everything went black.

    I look over at The Doctor and he seems to read my mind, he digs around the console and produces a hand mirror. I look into it to see the new me, my once dark curls have been replaced by bright red waves, my eyes are now a piercing green and my skin is even paler then before. I have light freckles dotting my nose and my features are petite. My body is slightly slimmer and im much shorter, only up to The Doctor’s shoulders.

    My first thought is my dad, I slowly take a step towards him, but my now huge shoes cause me to fall flat on my face. I quickly remove my shoes and stand to find a huge smile plastered on my dads face causing on to slowly creep on my on features. Soon all three of us are laughing and clutching our stomachs. As i gas for breath I manage to get out “Dad this doesn't change anything right?” He quickly stops laughing and looks at me shaking his head, “Of course not Em, I love you no matter what....even if you are an alien.”

“Technically she’s only half alien.” The Doctor says with a smirk.

“Shut up Doctor you ruined our moment.” I can’t help but chuckle as he’s leaves the room to give us our space. I turn towards my dad and rush into his arms as the tears begin to flow. He slowly smoothes my hair as I sob about everything I couldn’t cry about as a human, the time war, my family, Gallifray. After a good hour of crying I get the guts to ask dad the question I’ve always wanted to ask him, “Hey dad, how did you meet mom.” He gives me a small smile.

“I was walking down the street and I wasn’t paying attention and I bumped into her. I looked at her and she was the most beautiful women I have ever seen in my life, of course I didn’t know she was a Time Lady. We went on a few dates and things escalated then one day she told me she had to leave and to go home, I begged her to stay, I even told her I would pack up everything and move with her. She teared up and said that she loved me but my place was here, so that day she left and I never heard from her agin.” He sighed when he finished and looked up at me. “So tell me about her and your life after she left.” He asks me.

“Well she had me and then we were on our own for about 3 years until one day she told me it wasn’t safe to live alone, so she got married and had 2 more kids. My sister was almost 100 still a child and my brother was only 16 months old when they died. But my mom was never in love, I could tell by the way she looked at my “dad” he died right after the war began, one of the first actually, she didn’t even cry. I did know that my real father was human but I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone because it’s agents the law to “crossbreed”. You were actually the one went to after I changed, I didn’t want you to be alone when I was out there alone too.” At that my dad hugged me and said “I’m so glad you came.” At that point I knew that I truly made a difference in my dad’s life and I am really happy to be a Time Lady agin. My dad would never be alone because The Finder is here with him.
