Fan meeting

Author's note: Just a little bit of fun to get me back to writing again. Let me know what you think

It had been a long day at work, and I was getting ready to go home when I heard the noise.

Whoosh ... thunk. Woosh .... thunk.

I knew that noise.

It was a sound effect on my favorite tv shows of all time, Dr. Who.

I followed the sound, and there, in the corner of the lunch room beside the Coke machine, was the Doctor’s time machine, the Tardis.

I stared at the thing for a while, and then the door opened, and out came the latest incarnation of the Doctor, saying “Just a moment, going to do a quick tour, find out where we are.”

“Hi.”

He looked up, startled, and then said, “Oh. Hello.”

“Neat trick with the Tardis. Is this some kind of promotion for the new season?”

“New .... season?”

“You ... arent an actor, are you? You’re .. really him. The Doctor.”

“Yes, yes I am. And your name is ... Dorothy, according to your name tag.”

“That’s right.”

“Well, Dorothy. Could I trouble you to tell me where I am?”

“Well, you’re in a Wal Mart just outside of Edmonton, Alberta Canada, and its 2012, if you need to know the year.”

“Ah. Well, that helped a great deal, thank you. I better go, I promised Amy and Rory I would take them to see Julius Ceasar.”

“Well. have fun then.”

He went to leave, and then turned back.

“You said, Edmonton? Canada? And your name is Dorothy?”

“That’s right.”

“Well, that’s brilliant!! I’ve read your novels. I’m ... rather a fan, nice to meet you in person.”

“Novels? I’ve only written one.”

“Yet.” he said, and went back inside his machine, which vanished.

“Well, its always good to meet a fan, I guess.” I said, and got my stuff together so I could go home.
