The days were growing longer now that spring was approaching. It made venturing out into places like these.... feel more safe for just that a bit longer.

The land behind these bars was in a barren state. In fact, the slightest hint of green for miles came from a rusting hood of a car that was among the piles and piles of scrap and junk and useless shit that sat behind the cross hatched fence, waiting to be exploited by an.....

Inventive genius.

But this person of sound mind and intellect... was not the girl who was trying to climb the chain-linking fence. In fact, this girl was only running an errand, (well, sort of an errand, more of a favor, "she'll see!!! ya~") for the so called 'inventive genius.'

"hyup.. Hyup... Hyaaa! Hyoo...." She whimpered, after falling 7ft and pathetically rolling onto her back. Well, at least she was on the other side now. She stood up, adjusting the bright red flower in her hair while admiring the height that she had scaled. Then, that happy smile was wiped clean off when right in front of her was a section of the fence that had been peeled back to allow people in and out easily.

In fact, this is how Jen and Fuu had gotten in last time to find stuff to build claymores with.

"Ah gourds." Fuu huffed, kicking some dust. Then she dusted herself off and flipped her skirt out from over itself as the high-school girl spun around to venture the miserable place known as... "the Junk-yard."

There was much to be appreciated in a junkyard. The smell of oxidizing metal, the occasional dripping of gasoline out of punctured tanks, and the almost clockwork creak that came from cars that were only arguably 'steady' on large piles of other cars. Or the knowing risk that mishaps may ignite the aforementioned gasoline...
Or perhaps, just perhaps, he was still overcome by nostalgia from when he used to live in a junkyard. Well, sorta.

"Alright then. The chances of finding a semi-stable wavelength filter for a type 40 like yourself is unlikely, but let's see what we can find, shall we?" He patted the big blue police box, reassured in his old friend. Dressed in his ever trendy - or he so believed - tweed jacket, and with the undoubtedly cool bow tie, he began his trek across this strange new plane of existence.

A trek that lasted approximately fifteen steps, as upon turning the corner, he found that he was not the only one here. How very odd.
"Excuse me, you there!" He yelled out, hoping to catch the young lady's attention.
"May I ask why you are in a very potentially dangerous area, and all by yourself? It's not very reccomended. Very nice flower though. Is it a rose? I love roses. How about you? One thing I always find is..." He began to go off into a tangent, and would not likely stop until someone decided to - politely or otherwise - interject him.

"Yes... Roses are my favorite." She answered, glancing over her shoulder with a bit of confusion. "I... I love how they taste.... yah.."

Fuu fully turned her body around to face him. She took one look at the tweed jacket and broke into a bright smile, "Eheh~ Your clothes look a little baggy, oji-san. That makes me wanna feed you." With little regard for what he said, or was still saying. She closed the gap between them, then looked him up and down.

"Oh. Actually.. You look really creepy up close, so I'm just gonna keep walking, ya? She lightly stepped passed him while waggling her finger at him, "Don't follow me now~ Eheh!" She warned before pressing forward.

Continuing on her way, she slid down the flower behind her ear and tucked her hands in the blazer's pockets.
"chichichi... Chichichi.." She sounded from her mouth, leaning slightly as she cautiously stepped about the scrapyard... Keeping her eyes peeled for something that she was hoping would appear.

The man blinked twice, surprised by what had just occured here today. This girl, whoever in the world she was, had managed to avoid his initial question, and outramble him.
Him, who on a good day could ramble out a whole scene of Shakespeare if needed or if so chosen.
And when she had come close, she smelt... Of background spatial distortion. How very interesting indeed.

"Get back here you!" He yelled as he turned to follow after her, drawing the sonic screwdriver in the hopes he'd be able to get a proper reading of off whatever pocket - or perhaps even elongated - dimension was on her person. The most common tactic when the mod first became popular back in his universe was to apply it to a particular part of the nether regions. 'Ass pull' indeed.
He was a pretty good runner for his age. Then again, he regularly had practice.

"No!" She responded defiantly, looking genuinely surprised to find him following her. She went back to trying to spot something in the scrapheap, but was quickly distracted by his screwdriver. "Hey! My friend has one of those.... I don't know whats so cool about them but if you have one too they must be pretty trendy, ya." She prattled before deciding that the thing she was looking for was not here. Everything was starting to look orange with the sun setting behind them. She pouted and starting thinking about searching another area. And it was probably better if she did this quickly, but she seemed to think that having a conversation with a strange man she met in a junkyard was a good idea.

"Do you live here? Wait! You can't live here. You don't look like a Japanese?" Fuu asked, straightening herself and crossing her arms in front of her. "I'm Fuu Wakamurasaki. What are you doing here?"

Well, at least she was very clear in her immediate response. He was confused by her statement about someone else having a sonic screwdriver, but he brushed it off, figuring that this world was pretty strange as it was. Still might have to look into it at some point though. After a while, the girl finally stopped, which meant that for whatever reason, her motive to move around this junkyard had ceased to apply. As he caught up to her, the prongs unlatched on the sonic screwdriver, and he began scanning, even as she was asking him questions.

"Do you live here? Wait! You can't live here. You don't look like a Japanese?" He gave her a quizzical look.
"Oh yeah, because nobody from abroad would ever want to live in Japan." The sarcasm couldn't have been more obvious unless you had a sign being waved above his head. "Unless you mean the junkyard. In which case, I've been around a few from time to time." Half truths were the best friend of any old, wise man. Even one as off kilter as him.

He held up the sonic screwdriver as the scan finished, taking a good look at the readings. He was both confused, and intrigued.
"Well, Miss Fuu Wakamurasaki, the same as you I'd imagine - I'm looking for something. Though the what in 'what we're looking for' I guess is probably quite different." Well, a search as such would be the one thing that might drive someone who clearly did not live in a junkyard, to be in a junkyard so long. He casually pointed his index finger towards her bounce.
"Are you aware that your cleavage holds within it a distortion of space?"

"What? No?" Fuu didn't look like she was aware, eying his tool as he shoved it in her direction. Upon closer inspection it turned out it was nothing like Jen's humble screwdriver. In fact it looked more like a hi-tech whisk you use for making futuristic cupcakes. Fuu laughed nervously, not sure why she was holding her hands up like she was caught in a heist. "I'm pretty sure I'm not holding space in there, Oji-san!" She spoke defensively before loosening up, "But I've got a huge bone-eheh! Wanna see?" Her perfectly manicured fingers slid between her funbags with no resistance, causing a large amount of activity to occur where the man was pointing. She bit her tongue, having to rummage around a little bit before finally fishing out a large bone with a girlish giggle.

It looked like any dog treat that you could buy at a pet store. But reason why she had it in the first place...?

There was a rustle about twenty car lengths away, and the sound of a tin can rolling along the dirt was accompanied by loud galloping footsteps. Fuu's eyes slid to the bone in her hand before laughing joyously, "Haha, why didn't I think of that in the first place!"

Rounding the corner furthest away from them was a big black dog with sharp athletic features. He slowed and slid a little on the turn, but picked up speed as he charged towards the conversing pair. "Good luck with finding your thing, ya. I know I found mine!" As the dog shot across the yard Fuu didn't move an inch. "Here doggy, I got a thing for you~" She cooed, offering the bone and tossing it the length of first base to third.

The solid black German shepherd ignored it completely. And now it was dangerously close, only a few feet in front of her and baring its teeth... preparing to bite.

Fuu just stood there and gulped.

She either had no idea what the term 'distortion of space' meant, or she was really good at playing the fool. He was actually pretty unsure as to which in this case. His suspicions at the very least as to the nature of that smell were confirmed, as she pulled out an extremely large bone. Gravity would normally tell that thing to fall straight through the peaks and onto the ground if there wasn't something up with the upper half of her body.

The bone seemed to double as some form of summoning spell, as within moments of her extracting it, something began to come running towards them. Something very big, and very fast. It was a dog - a german shepherd to be precise. No K9, not by a long shot. He presumed this would simply be a friendly piece of a girl and her dog, and began to walk away. However, he heard the sound of the bone landing a good distance away. What he didn't hear was the sound of the dog chasing after it.

Not good.

"Out of the way!" He turned on his feet, running at Fuu in time to grab her by the arms, and then drag her out of the path of the charging canine.
"Now, we run." And run he did, hoping to bring Fuu in tow, as the creature gave chase.

Why was it every time she found herself about to be eaten by something bigger than her it was always too late to do anything about it? Now wait.. that can't be true. Because if it was she wouldn't be standing there about to become dog kibble. Fuu held her breath waiting for death to come swiftly when the dog lunged forward. But its jaws missed her legs by a hair of a second as she felt herself suddenly pulled backwards.

"It's you?!"
Fuu had more things to say, like maybe 'thanks,' but her energy was spent trying to keep up with the strange tall man pulling her along. He was fast, she thought, as she eyed his legs while listening to the big black dog recover from its fumble and continue chasing after them. It gave a few barks just to let the two know he was right behind them, saying 'run rabbit, run.'

"We can't.. huff huff.. flee forever!" That's right, they couldn't run forever, because the dog was a powerhouse, closing the distance between them with ease. "He looked so friendly before though!! I don't understand!!" There might have been a sob somewhere there, and if he looked back he'd probably find her crying. And dog just over her shoulder.

This is it! She thought, they were both going to die here now. She followed the stranger as they run towards the setting sun. That's about when she started to appreciate the small miracles in life. She watched the beautiful peach colored clouds. And a flock of birds flew overhead, back early from the winter. She smiled through her tears. This wasn't about being the hero. This was about taking responsibility. "H-Have .. huff.. a good life for both of us, Oji-saaaan!!"

She let go of his hand, falling behind and stopping... Tightly shutting her eyes... Ready to die.

Only.. She didn't.

Wide eyed and surprised, she was too afraid to turn around and see what happened.

But the stranger would see clearly.. that the dog had gone off chasing shadows cast by the flock of pigeons as they flew down the yard.

What happened to the bright and bubbly attitude she had earlier? Or was sudden pessimism her superpower? Then again, it seemed she'd really been waiting to see this thing, and for it to attack her...
Well, he guessed he'd feel the same if that sort of thing had happened with his dog. He understood why she would cry over such a thing.

"H-Have .. huff.. a good life for both of us, Oji-saaaan!!"
Wait, WHAT?!
He turned not long after she had released his hand, expecting to see her in the process of being torn apart by the dog. Instead, he saw that the girl just there, on her own, and not a scratch. Instead, the dog was off chasing the shadows cast by some pigeons. Maybe...

"Poor thing must be all alone out here. I can get you wanting to come and see it, but when Dogs are left alone too long, they'll just try and find something to do. Something to chase. Even if it's not really there. And lots of shadows to chase in a place like this." He began to fiddle with the sonic screwdriver. He'd seen what it had done with the Krafayis back in 1890. Maybe he could use to affect the dog somehow. He held the device out, aiming almost like a weapon...

Fuu stared at the strange man in the tweed jacket with tears welling in her eyes. She didn't look cute when she cried. Her nose was red and swollen and her eyes were all puffy underneath... It just wasn't like in the movies. Fuu slowly tore her gaze apart from the man and cast a look down at her hands. Realizing that these hands had just thrown her life away so easily...

She listened to his lecture, hanging her head while biting her bottom lip and stifling a few sniffs. Fuu raised the cuff of her jacket to crudely wipe her nose as this man pointed his whisk at the dog, who was now frolicking about in the distance as the pigeons circled above them. "..eh??" She sounded, quickly pulling her face up in trying to see what the man was planning on doing. It looked like he was holding it like a gun. Or maybe it was that Fuu still had WDA mission on her mind so that it looked that way? Anyway, that's what she assumed so she immediately stepped in the line of fire of the "screwdriver."

"Ano! I know they put down violent dogs, but look, he is not a bad dog!" Fuu brushed the front of her clothes and trotted a little closer towards the preoccupied dog, "See? See? He is not attacking me, ya.. there is no need to shoot him down.." She spoke nervously, standing stiff and faking a smile.
"O-Oji-san!"

He was honestly surprised to find Fuu step in front of the screwdriver, and draw closer to the dog that was busy with flat images. A small smile drew across his face, as she defended that which had previously attacked her. He remembered a time where he once wouldn't have done that... until he met those two...
However, as she too stepped forward, so did he.

"O-Oji-san!"
"My apologies Miss Wakamurasaki, but they'll be better off like this." He moved past her, bringing the dog back into to aim, and he activated the screwdriver. A small squeal echoed through the junkyard, and there might be a bit of a dizzy spell for the young lady, but after a few moments, he stopped. The dog stood there for a few moments, seemingly frozen. Seemingly dead.

After a few tense moments however, the dog look around, panting with an excitement it had not so kindly shown earlier. It rushed over to Fuu, where it promptly tackled her, and began to show its affection as all dogs do.
"It's not much, but I used the screwdriver to shake up the brain a bit. The OCD for shadows'll return though in time, if you don't take care of him. Think you can handle that?" He said as he placed the screwdriver away in his pocket, utterly pleased. "Oh, and don't worry - that probably wouldn't work on a human like yourself."

How? How could he do that!? Fuu was going to get serious, (for once,) on this person, but suddenly the beloved dog showed signs of life. How? ... How did he do that!?

Fuu was surprised, catching the great dog as it leaped up on its hind legs to greet her, and ended up tackling her. It began to sniff and lick her face as she squirmed under it, half-laughing and half-screaming out something.

"Osa.. Osa... Oh ... Ss--Saa-Sankyuu!" Her hands finally wriggled out and patted the dog on the head, rubbing his ears seemed to calm him down a little bit. She was still light headed from the tool's squeal, but mistook it for feeling extremely happy and relieved that everything worked out after all. Why did she assume the creepy looking stranger would want to end a life so easily? He seemed he was a nice guy after all. She continued to pat the dog, returning the lovable creature's bright toothy smile with one of her own.

"Hey! No body called me by my first name before.... Eheh.." She turned while adjusting the flower in her hair and looked at the sharp dressed man. She was red in the cheeks instead of her eyes now. There was probably something lost in translation that made him think Wakamurasaki was her family name, but the thought hadn't crossed her mind. "Okay ... I'll let you call me...." She gulped, feeling nervous about letting somebody else call her by the name she grew up being teased by, "...Lavender. But who... Who are you?"

She looked like she was talking to the dog though, ruffling it's chest while making a friendly funny face at it.

Lavendar. Interesting name, and one way or another, it did seem to suit her anyway. He walked over and joined her in giving the dog some much needed love, grinning like a giddy child.
"Oh, me? I'm a traveller. And a scientist. A lot of things really. I decided to have something a bit more encompassing than most people do. Hence..." He gave the dog an extra big stroke, which it enjoyed marvellously.
"I am the Doctor. Certainly helped out this big fella, didn't I? Hehe, good dog."

He stood up, brushing himself off.
"Well Lavendar, I must say this is where I bid you adieu. You found what you were looking for, and I..."
Vworp, Vworp...
"...just have to check on something." He ran back to where he had first appeared, recalling the path all the way to its source. A small blue light eminated above the wreckage of some cars, his fears highlighting themselves across his face.

"NO!" He yelled, uncaring of who heard him, as he turned the corner. He came back round, face sullen, clearly not pleased. He sat down, seemingly on the verge of screaming out in frustration. And after he'd helped the freaking dog too.

"Vet.. Doctor who helps animals is called a vet, ya." She said in a patronizing way towards the big german shepherd in the Doctor's absence.

When he returned Fuu and the dog were standing watching him silently, both of them with pouts on their snouts. The dog's ears became pointed and alert, and Fuu raised one of her brows. When he parked himself down amongst the junk they trotted along after him. She had noticed the a faint blue glow from the tops of the piles, but couldn't seem to put two and two together. Fuu bent down and met the man's sullen gaze with her narrow, but grinning eyes.

"Um... Someone sounded upset over there Doctor," She said, in a manner that was just an octave lower from becoming sickeningly sweet. "Me and Shadow are going to go see what's wrong with him, eheh! Wanna come?" The dog sat at about the height where her tall legs seemed to end.
