A time travel machine
The Doctor tells me about the TARDIS.Bigger on the inside and smaller by the outside.He told me that the initials 'TARDIS' stood for 'Time and relative dimension in space' that was thought up by his granddaughter. At first I was confused how a young man can have a granddaughter. But then when I think about it; time travel, maybe? I didn't really care about how big the TARDIS is by the inside or outside.Those are for the judgmental people.
"She has Wifi." The Doctor said.
And there he goes acting like the TARDIS is a submarine as everyone does when acknowledging their gender. I mean submarines do not have genders, and, nor is the TARDIS a submarine.If I knew why grown ups gave labels to inanimate objects then perhaps I could join the awkward party at the grown up table. I raised my eyebrows at the mention of WiFi.
"What is WiFi?" I ask.
"The internet." The Doctor said, quite fondly.
"Explain what the internet is." I said.
The Doctor stares at me curious for what seemed to be forever.
"You don't know what the internet is?" The Doctor asks, quite baffled. "You're from the year 2006. You should be accustomed to the advancement of technology."
I rub the back of my neck, shyly.
"My computer won't turn on." I said. "All I get is a black screen."
I saw a green button on the console while The Doctor without the eyebrows was left to his thoughts. Press a button, any button! I thought pressing several buttons on the console.The type writer attached to the console began moving back and forth. Attending skip-a-long, I was fascinated by the old type writer at the last room that was across from the other classroom during play time, and wanted to start writing. Well, that is what I am doing.
"Stop it!" The Doctor told me.
"Nah ah." I refused,clicking the buttons
"This is a time travel machine, not a type writer." The Doctor told me.
I stopped right as the lights around the merry-go-round room began going on and off.
"..OOps?" I said, with a shrug. "I am Ivy."
The Doctor slid a wide and small computer screen towards us. I saw a big building that is similar to a apartment complex. There was a wide field of green prosperous grass below in front of the building. There was a empty road that lead through a field of houses and it was beside the huge apartment complex building.It reminded me of the one my mom lived in with my brother and I somewhere in Illinois.There is one memory that I can recall how far a car dealership was down the street.This car dealership was about five houses down, because the 2nd house had a wooden fence kids can jump over.
"This is not possible." The Doctor said,rubbing his extensive long chin.
I had a urge to call the Doctor 'Chinny', but, that would be so rude.
"What?" I ask,looking closer to the screen.
I could see two figures down the empty road sharing a conversation.
"Eyesight power time!" I squeaked, as the screen became clearer to my eyes.
The first figure is a man, who was taller than the second figure, probably in his late forties. The second figure is a short one so I guess this must be a woman because of the body outlines, the legs, the shoes, and the hoody.It made this much easier to deduce the second figure has short blonde hair. They were still in the distance.
"No one could have known..." The Doctor rambles and then points his sonic up at me.
The sonic beeps.
"I know that isn't a memory eraser." I said pointing at the sonic. "You're holding it wrong." I shook my hands. "You're holding it up, Doctor." I knew how it should be held because of the way he dealt with the 'Darleks'. At least that's how I think their name is spelled. "You're not pointing the sonic straight."
"And how would you know?" The Doctor said, raising an invisible eyebrow.
"Men in Black." I said. "You don't forget the memory eraser and Will Smith that easily."
The Doctor didn't know what I am talking about.
"Agent J?" I suggest. "Agent K? Talking dog?"
Something went off in the Doctor's head; I could tell by his hazel eyes. The Doctor then takes out a small bracelet attached to a watch from one of the compartments on the TARDIS science-y decorated table. It was dark gray with some hints of green, a few light gray binds making up into some fantastic alien crafted design met at a clock part at the middle, small gaps in the structure for skin to be shown, and it reminded me of the Omnitrix except more bracelet-y and The Mummy 2 device'ish. And that it was so alien.
"Which one is your dominant hand?" The Doctor asks.
I grab a pen out of no where and wrote on my left hand.
"I am a righty." I said.
"...I don't have a stash of pens in the TARDIS." The Doctor said, sounding baffled by the handy dandy pen that appeared outta no where.
"Logically you do." I said. "Where else would I have got the pen from?" I raise an eyebrow up at the Doctor. "Exactly my point." My eyebrow subsided, so I grabbed the device and put it on my right wrist hearing the faintest of all clicks. "I hope this doesn't make me into aliens."
"It doesn't." The Doctor said. "It freezes your physical aging and all until you take it off."
My eyebrows shot up.
"Does this mean I'mma be going on a adventure?" I sang the word 'adventure'.
"Yes." The Doctor said. "Trust me on this, whatever you do: don't take off the bracelet."
"What about showering? What about taking a bath? What about changing into clothes?" I ask.
"It is capable of adapting." The Doctor said. "It is waterproof.My favorite food is fish fingers and custard." The Doctor went on. That's an odd choice for a favorite food. Well, my favorite food is Ramen Noodles and Strawberries so maybe it ain't too weird. "My other self likes apples, and the one before that likes Bananas."
"My brother loves bananas." I said.
Did he say 'my other self'? This is one weird 'Doc.
"Bannana's are healthy." The Doctor said.
"Agreed!" I declare. "They are healthy for monkeys to munch on!"
The Doctor gave me another item telling me to give it to his self before the apple one and basically shoved me out the door reassuring me he'll see me in a few years. Wait, did he just say 'I'll see you in a few years, give or take.' to a ten year old girl who has been given a 'age-ing denied' bracelet holding a unusual item and thrown into some where she doesn't know? This is the weirdest man I've ever come across at the moment.
The TARDIS was gone when I looked over my shoulder.
"...Man, so this is how Marty felt." I said, with the roll of an eye.
I force myself up and then dust off my pants. Mission number one: go to the man who's right beside the blonde chick. You got the speed of a champion, leg that hurts in the cold because you fell from a too high monkey bars at a young age, and tasked with an important mission. Good reminders to go with for a shy ten year old. I ran off right towards the duo keeping the urgent item in my hands in such a tight hold that my hands were getting slippery already.
The wind made my football shaped hair whish in the air annoyingly.
I thought of a song 'Who let the dogs out?' and pictured myself back in PE running around and only stopping when the music stopped. At one time I was the only run running because all the students were in the middle when the music stopped and everything was so blurry as my eyes attention was focused on the floor for any shiny things. Oh look I just found a penny which pretty much is now in my pocket.
Finally, after seemed to be five minutes, I made it to the duo.
"Hai!" I greet the two, with a cheerful smile. "I am Ivy." I said in between my gasps for air, and held up the device to the man. "And you wanted me to give this to you!"
I handed the item to the man in the leather coat. Oh well, maybe this is the Doctor. Maybe this is when he is older. Okay I can go with that explanation. The custard Doctor made reference to his other self so maybe this is something like different parallel versions of himself. The Doctor looks up a bit confused from the item towards me.
"I didn't tell you to give this to me." The Doctor said.
"You will." I said. "In probably...Uh what year is it?"
"My name is Rose." Rose said. Rose is the blonde chick. "It is 2005."
"Several time travel years." I finish.
