After the ruckus of my arrival and my interrupted sleep with then knowing my Uncle had taken a fall. I decided to take a walk, while walking around the school when a boy bumped into me.

"My apologies." the boy spoke, he looked to be around the same age as me, a little timid compared to the other students that I have noticed.

"It's alright." I assure him as I took a liking to the air about him, he didn't seem like a pig that looked down on his counterparts. "What's your name?" I wondered

"Latimer, Timothy Latimer." I smiled and held out my hand.

"Katherine Smith." He looked down at it for a second then remembered what to do. He kissed it and I took my hand away slowly.

"Are you Mr Smith's, Niece?" he wondered

"Word about me has already spread has it?" I laughed, I was in a all boys school and the only female that wasn't a matron or a maid. I figured as much would happen.

"Quite so,Ma'am."

"Please, call me Katherine. I'm not old." I insisted, he bowed his head slightly accepting the permission of a  familiar term "Tell me Timothy, you know the school well?"

"Yes I do."

"Would you mind showing me around, the Headmaster promise, yet never said with who. I think you to be a good choice."

"Of course."

"Tomorrow then." he nodded and I smiled. I headed back to my room to read. I then changed for bed that night and fell asleep.

-

The next morning i found myself sitting in my Uncles room, reading a book, when someone knocked on the door. Uncle John opened it.

"You told me to come and collect that book, Sir." I looked up. I knew that voice.

"Good lad, yes, yes. The definitive account of king by Aitchison Price. Where did i put it." Uncle john came back with Timothy.

"Good morning, Timothy." I smiled at him.

"Good morning Miss Katherine."

"And I wanted a little word. Your marks aren't quite good enough." Uncle told him with a concerned gaze, making me want to know more.

"I'm top 10 in my class , sir." Timothy replied

"Now, be honest, Timothy. You should be at the very top. You're a clever boy, you seem to be hiding it. Where's that book." he continued searching for the book

"And I know why. Keeping your head low avoid the mockery of your class mates. But no man should hide himself, don't you think?" I continued reading, but not making it as obvious that I was.

"Yes, sir."

"You're clever. You should be proud of it. Use it. Ah." he kept rambling while I paid half attention to my book.

"Fascinating details about the siege, really quite remarkable. Are you alright?" he asks and i look up again.

"Yes sir, Fine sir."

"Right then, good. And remember, use that brain of yours." Timothy took the book and had a far away look.

"You're really not looking yourself, old chap. Anything bothering you?"

"No sir." I decided to take him away from my Uncle.

"Timothy, how about that our of the school, if that's alright with you Uncle." I glance between them. Uncle John nodded turning to do something else.

"Yes, go ahead." I place my book down.

"Shall we?" I ask

"Yes Miss Katherine." he held out his arm and I took it. He lead me out of my Uncles rooms.

"You're of high intelligence aren't you." I say to him but he says nothing "My Uncle and I know it. Why does he say you avoid mocking?"

"Because I do, it's easier that way. Though I can't help it sometimes. I just know things, things i'm not supposed too." he answered.

"Knowledge is power. You're better, I can tell."

"How? You don't know me."

"I feel like a I do." I start messing with my father fob watch, i knew my uncle had one. I think he did anyway."

"What's that?" Timothy asked

"Oh, something that used to belong to my father. Nothing." I shook my head, tucking it away and think nothing more of it. We were approached by a few older boys.

"Latimer, what are you doing."

"Miss Katherine asked me to show her around the school, sir. She is Mr Smith's niece." Timothy explained and the others looked at one another before turning their attention back to me.

"Ah well I can take it from here."

"No, i'm quite well." Was the reply from myself, I didn't like bullies or those who thought that because they were older or had more power that they were right all the time. These boys oozed of that feeling and I liked it not.

"Nonsense, here let me." He offered me his arm

"Was I not clear, oh dear i think i might need to repeat myself, more bluntly. No." my voice lowered, I refused to be pressured to do anything. I chose Timothy not them.

"No?"

"No. No i will not walk with you. No, you may not show me around, that position is already taken. I like walking with Timothy. Try and make me do something against my will and I'll scream. Good day" We carried on walking, till I came back to my room.

"Thank you. I seem quite aquatinted now. Are you going to the dance this evening. I know it's for adults but my curiosity never ends." I had spoken to Uncle John about it and he was alright with me going.

"I don't plan to."

"Oh, alright then. Good day."

"Good day Miss Katherine."

-----

It was nearly dark when I decided to take a walk, it would be a little while before Uncle John would be escorting me to the dance and I wanted to clear my head.

"Miss Katherine. Miss Katherine."

"Martha, what is it." She came running to me and took my hand. You need to come with me right away." She took off running again and i followed. We ran into my Uncles rooms.

"They've found us." She panted

"This is ridiculous."

"Martha, i've warned you." Uncle scolded but i was interested to what she was saying.  It must be something bad, I knew she wasn't one to get worked up over nothing.

"They've found us and i've seen them, they look like people , like us, like normal. I'm sorry but you've both got to open the watches." She looked over to the fireplace.

"Where's your's. Oh, my god Where's it gone? Where's your watch gone?" Martha panicked making my head tilt in curiosity.

"What you talking about."

"You had a fob watch right there." Martha pointed to the mantlepiece as my Uncle glanced at her with confusion.

"Did I? I don't remember."

"I don't see what concern it is of yours." Matron interjected, oh why was she here? Why was she anywhere, she was that irritating.

"Oh my god. Shut up you insufferable woman." i snap "What are you even doing here, anyway? You are of no use or need to this conversation."

"Katherine that's quite enough." Uncle John scolded me

"No enough would be me slapping her for being so damn annoying. Or shoving her out of a window, she's has no merit between the three of us." i snap back at him.

"But we need it, oh my god Doctor. We're hiding. Kate please tell me you still have yours" She turned to me, hopeful.

"The fob watch my father gave me. Yes. In my room." I answered and she seemed relieved as she rested a hand against her chest.

"Good, we're hiding from aliens and they've got Jenny and they've possessed her or copied her or something., and you've got to tell me where's the watch?"

"Oh I see. Cultural differences." he muttered. He took his journal and held it up "It must be so confusing for you. Martha, this is what we call a story."

"Oh you complete...This is not you. This is 1913."

"Good this is 1913."

"I'm sorry, i'm really sorry but i've got to snap you out of this." Martha raised her hand and slapped him. I covered my mouth in shock.

"Martha!"

"Wake up! You're both coming back to the Tardis with me." She grabbed him

"How dare you! I'm not going anywhere with an insane servant." He grabbed her "Martha, you are dismissed. You will leave these premises immediately" Uncle John forced her out and I tried to stop him.

"Martha!" I called Joan grabbed my arm, I fought her off.

"Get off me!"

"Kate!" Martha yelled.

"I said get off!" i yanked my arm and slapped the woman holding me, just as John  slammed the door. Matron held her face in shock "Touch me again, I dare you."

"The nerve of it! The absolute cheek."

"I hate you John, how could you!" I yell at him. He had changed since coming here and it was not for the better.

"Katherine not you too." he shook his head.

"Martha has never, ever lied. Not once and you think she's mad. I wish I never came here, this..this harlot has changed you and not for the better." I ran off

-vision-

I was in the tardis, I was laughing and joking.

"Dad!" i scream as he picked me up. Martha was laughing at our antics

"Oh, poor Katie."

--

"Martha, this watch is us. We have to become human, they'll die soon, three months. But don't worry we've made a tape and it can help you."

----

I screamed in agony as everything in me was being rewritten.

-end-

"It's true" i breathed. I grabbed my coat and fobwatch then ran to find her.

"Martha!" I found her

"Martha wait" she stopped and i caught up to her. I sucked in breath as I tried to calm myself not just over running but what I had seen.

"Miss Katherine."

"I believe you. I saw things, not everything but enough to know, you're not mad" She grinned

"I've missed you."

"I know, but we still have to jog his memory. something so that even little piece like I have he might be able to be useful." she had an idea come to mind

"The Tardis" I nodded in agreement and she lead me away.
