Summary: The Doctor encounters a weeping angel, and an old friend

The Doctor parked the TARDIS but something felt odd. He couldn’t remember when he last had been here, or what he had done. He was sure he had been here, after all on this planet he had been to every place. The human race was the most interesting one, the Doctor had always thought. They always survived, maybe that’s why some people were so desperate to destroy them.

The Doctor thought for a moment, trying to remember what last he had done on his trip here. Had he made a friend? An enemy? He had no clue. Deep down he was hoping for a friend. After all he had been through a lot lately. He had lost a dear friend recently, his wife in fact. He did have a friend now, Nardole, but it was different. The Doctor was longing for an old friend, maybe the TARDIS had sensed that and brought him here.

He sighed and slowly pushed open the door. He saw a beautiful light shine upon a park, he smiled faintly. This. This is what was so beautiful about Earth. People smiled, and laughed. And for a moment just for one moment, the Doctor forgot all his hardships.

“Help! Somebody!” The scream burst his bubble, and he quickly ran to the call. “Hello?” The Doctor shouted, trying to detect the voice.

“Help! I’m in the ally!” The voice shouted, sounding terrified.

The Doctor closer now could hear that it was young man that was hollering. He rushed into the nearest ally to find a statue in a threatening pose standing to close the man.

“Ah, Okay. Listen to my every word and you just might make it out of here alive. How long have it been following you?” the Doctor questioned.

“Um, I’ve been noticing these statues going missing all day, and now there moving. I’ve seen it. my Dad told me not to investigate,”

“What is it with people these days? Never listening. Don’t blink. You hear me? Don’t blink,”

“Yes sir,” he took a step back and kept his eyes open wide.

“Okay. We need to find a way to keep it quantum locked.”

“What?”

“Um, short version. Well, these are aliens that have basically the best self defense system, whenever someone is looking at them they turn to stone. You can’t kill stone. But when you look away, that’s when they attack. But, something we can use is a mirror, if it’s looking at itself it will never move again. Until someone moves the mirror. Wait, I guess that was the long version. Oh well, I’m going to be right back, don’t blink!” the Doctor ordered, rushing off.

“Wait don’t leave me!” the man cried.

The Doctor quickly ran from the ally into the next closest shop. He went straight to the bathroom and ripped the mirror off the wall.

“Hey! Hey Mister! You can’t have that!” the employee shouted chasing after him.

“Sorry but I need this more than you do.”

The Doctor ran into the alley relived to see that the angel hadn’t moved.

“Where did you go? My eyes are burning! I can’t keep this up!”

The Doctor sighed, “Oh stop complaining, your fine.”

He went over by the angel and propped up the mirror, he pulled out his sonic to hold it steady.

“Wait a minute! That’s a sonic screwdriver! Where did you get that?” the man asked.

“What do you mean? I invented the sonic screwdriver.” the Doctor said protectively.

“So, does that mean your the Doctor? I thought you would be younger,” he stated.

“What do you mean? How do you know me? I’ve never seen you before.”

“We have met, but I don’t look quite the same. I was just a baby. But my Dad and Mum tell me stories of the Doctor, the wonderful Doctor.”

“What? Who are your parents?”

“My Dad is Craig and my Mums Sophie,” the man held out his hand. “my names Alfie Owens. Nice to finally meet you.”
