Chapter 1: Who are you and what is this?

Kris was just another typical fifteen year-old girl. School was boring, her parents were boring, her friends… well, she didn’t have any. Life was boring.

One morning, Kris got out of bed at 6:00am. Normally, she would have used this time to sleep in until 8:00am, but today she just wasn’t tired. She tossed for a few minutes, but upon giving up, she got out of bed and put her school uniform on. These uniforms were dark green and gold, and luckily for Kris, unlike other schools, girls weren’t confined to kilts and dresses. They where allowed to wear tracksuit pants, shorts and shirts as well. Anyway, as she went to get herself a few pieces of toast, there was a very bright flash that temporarily blinded her. Rubbing her eyes, she looked around to see what was making it. Nothing appeared, Kris dismissed it as unexplainable and finished getting ready, and saying goodbye to her mum.

As she was walking to school, she saw that blinding flash again. Looking around, she still did not find out what made the flash. Kris got curious after it flashed again a matter of five minutes later. Keeping a sharp eye on things as she began to walk, Kris watched her surroundings like a hawk. Nothing happened until she got to the school gates, where something flew right in front of her. It was a small metal device that was levitating at the same height as her head. It was a strange shape, it looked a bit like two oranges merged together at the sides, only silver. Suddenly, it flashed bright white, but just before it did, Kris grabbed it so it couldn’t get away, as she expected that it may be the cause. She could feel it struggling in her grip, but she didn’t let it go, for she yearned to know what it was. Kris held it tightly then threw it inside her schoolbag, then ran to her classroom. Her teacher was inside, but no other kids were, as most were still fast asleep in bed until at least 7:00am, and that was still fifteen minutes away. She forced the heavy door open and then ran to her teacher, Miss Campbell, who happened to be a science teacher as well as her form teacher.

‘Miss Campbell, quick, look at this!!’ Kris said from behind her teacher. Miss Campbell turned around and looked at Kris.

‘Oh, Kris, you’re u-’

‘Look at this!’ Kris interrupted as she opened the bag big enough for her hand but not for the device to escape. Her hand felt around inside her bag, and upon finding it, grabbed it and pulled it out. It struggled and made a few blinding flashes but eventually calmed as Miss Campbell looked at it.

‘I’ve never seen anything like it…’ She said. ‘It doesn’t look like anything familiar.’ *Flash* ‘Do you know why it keeps flashing, Kris?’

‘No, I don’t. But hey, don’t you think it looks like it’s taking’ *Flash* ‘Ouch! My eyes! …I was saying it looks a bit like the flash from a camera.’

‘Kris, don’t let it get away, OK? It may be something very interesting and I think we should give it to some scientists to identify.’

‘OK.’ Kris agreed, stowing the strange metal thing inside her bag as it flashed yet again.

‘Good, now you go outside for another hour, I’m preparing. You shouldn’t be at school this early anyway.’ Kris nodded, then walked out of the building and sat down on the classroom steps. There was nothing to do now but wait. Kris began to get drowsy, the late night and the early morning had really gotten to her. She put her bag down and rested her head on it. Kris closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep…

Kris woke up quite suddenly. Someone was vigorously shaking her.

‘Wazgoinon…?’ Kris said sleepily. A man was standing over her, and it was no one she recognized. Waking up completely, she began to realize that this man was a stranger. ‘Who are you!?’

‘I’m The Doctor, now get up and follow me!’ Kris backed away at this.

‘Doctor? Doctor who? You could be a serial killer for all I know, get away from me!!’

‘You don’t understand! That thing in your bag is extremely important! Trust me, you have to come with me!’

‘HOW do you know about that thing in my bag!??’ Kris demanded while backing away.

‘There’s no time!’ Said the (doctor??) ‘If I have to, I’ll drag you!’ The Doctor grabbed Kris’s bag and Kris around the waist and dragged her around the corner, which unless entered, was an invisible ally way. Kris didn’t like this, she struggled as much as she could, but this thin man was much, much stronger than he looked. Over in the corner was an old-style police box, which looked quite cramped. The man dragged Kris over to the box and opened it. Inside, it was huge, bigger on the inside than on the outside. It was circular, and in the middle was some very complicated machinery.

It was then Kris realized that this man was not of the normal sort. This man either had the biggest brain in the world, or this man, was not a man at all.
