"No, not direct tracking. This may even be the wrong time period." the Doctor said.
"No, not direct tracking. This may even be the wrong time period." the Doctor said.
"Then how do you do it? How are you supposed to help people if they don't say where they are or what they need?"
"Well, quite frankly, I just travel somewhere and trouble finds me. It's a lottery." the Doctor admitted.
"But I thought your psychic paper stuff supposedly told you that someone in particular needed help?"
"Not always! I mainly just…. It's far to difficult to explain to someone with such a… a… a human brain!" the Doctor half shouted.
Lucas flinched a bit at the Doctor's yelling. If this guy's not careful he'll wake up everyone… "A-Alright, sorry… Do you guys want to come to my house or something? I… I-I dunno what you're really doing here."
"I don't need a place to stay. I suppose I'll be going now." he said, stepping back inside the TARDIS. Susan gave an apologetic smile and followed him.
"Wait! Where… where are you going?" Please don't leave me here… I'm more alone in the place I call 'home' than I would be with people I don't even know…
"Oh, just going. I do that." the Doctor said.
"But why? Don't you ever just want to stay somewhere for awhile?" Or take someone new with you? Honestly, Lucas was almost completely sure that his father wouldn't even notice that he had gone. He kept calling him Claus, anyways; that is, when he even noticed his existence.
"No, I'm not much for staying. I prefer going, much more exciting! Do you like to go places too?" he asked Lucas.
"Er, I don't really get to go anywhere that's not on the island. There's no way to get off without an adult when you're a kid, and I know my father wouldn't go…" Lucas looked away awkwardly.
"Oh? Oh? Oh… I guess…. well, erm, I hadn't been offering at the time but…. Ah, I don't know? Possibly?" the Doctor stuttered.
"What? You're not making any sense." Lucas put his hands in his jacket pockets to keep them warm. It was definitely getting colder outside.
(I should probably go to bed now. Goodnight! ^^)
(Hi! Good morning!)
(Hello ^^)
(Continue?)
(Yep! It's your turn)
(Right.) "Oh, I just ask people things like that. I don't think it would be wise for you to travel with us." he frowned.
Of course… what would they need someone like me for, anyways? Lucas nodded. "Alright… well, I hope you guys stay safe, then." He gripped his flashlight tighter and started walking away.
"Honestly, any other day I would, I really would, but it's just…. well, one trip wouldn't hurt, if you still want to come?" he called out.
Lucas looked back over his shoulder. "Really? I can get away from this awf- I mean, this island?"
"Just one trip and then back home, understand?" he asked. Susan sighed. "Doctor, you can't bring a child into this!" she exclaimed.
I don't want to be a burden, but if it gets me away from the island… Lucas glanced back at his house, which he could see from the hill. His ignorant father was probably still asleep and wouldn't even notice he was gone in the morning. And if these people could really travel through time, they could always bring him back at this same moment, right? Everyone would be none the wiser.
"Susan, it's just one trip, there's nothing to worry about. Calm down." the Doctor argued. "Yeah, it always starts with one trip, doesn't it. Next thing you know we've been captured by boggins from space and a piano falls on top of the Eifel Tower." Susan protested. This, in her very sensible opinion, wouldn't end well.
