The second I close my eyes, the dizziness leaves me, as if it were never there. But, as always, when I open my eyes, I am in a compleatly different place. I get up, and look around to see where I am this time. I'm sprawled out in a dark alleyway. I walk out onto the street, but there's no one to be seen. "It is pretty late," I say to myself, glancing around for any signs of life. But, I see nothing. "Where is he?" I am never sent anywhere unless He's there.

If I had to guess, this was a few hundred years into the future on earth. Or, it could be an earth like civilization on a different planet. Whichever, it is, I know He's here, and I need to find him.

I start running down the street, when I hear a scream from behind me. "There," I said to myself. The number one rule of finding Him, follow the danger. I take off in the direction of the scream. Once I make it up the road, I see where everyone went.

About 200 people I would guess, are all lined up in rows. Men in metal suits patrol them, shoving people who are out of line. I shake my head, "Cybermen," I say. Why does it always have to be Cybermen? I run down the hill into the scene.

I frantically look through the rows of people, trying to find Him. I can't see him. I walk over to a Cyberman.

"What's your plan this time oh wait, let me guess, are you trying to, I don't know, 'upgrade' everyone here? Wow! Where do you come up with these ideas?" The Cyberman doesn't look, he doesn't even hear me. No one can see or hear me. To all of them, I am a ghost. I am nothing. I'm used to it at this point, but sometimes I wish He could hear me. Speaking of him, where is He?

I need to find him. I need to know he's okay. I leisurely walk over to a patch of grass and sit down. I focus on just him, nothing else. I clear my mind. Come on, where is he? That's when a vision focuses into my head. I see things that aren't there, whether it be in the Dreams, or real life. Images will randomly pop into my head sometimes. I don't know what it is, but they are always real. They've helped me out a lot.

Anyway, he's in a building of sorts, with other people. But, it's dark. There. It's not much, but I can figure it out from that. I stand up and start running. Somehow, my feet take me to where I need to be.

I walk over to a building. It looks like a store. I tug on the door, but it doesn't budge. I need to get in there. So, I guess it have to do it.

I close my eyes, and picture myself standing on the other side of the door. I imagine the exact location. I feel myself drop down into nothingness. After a few seconds, I hit ground, the floor of the store. My head hurts, and I can barely breathe.

I can "teleport" when I need to(only in Dreams, not in real life, unfortunately) I found out a few years ago when He fell into a ditch. When I thought of myself down at the bottom, I transported there. But when I do this, I feel like I've run a marathon. So, I must choose wisely when I do it. I lean against the wall, trying to catch my breath. After a few minutes, I have enough strengh to look around. That's when I hear voices, I walk down an isle of the store and see a group of people huddled together, whispering.

That's when I see him, the Doctor. It's his 10th form. You see, the Doctor isn't from Earth. He's an alien called a Time Lord. He doesn't really die, he just regenerates into a different form. There has been 12 of them, but I mainly see his 10th, 11th, and 12th form. I walk towards the group of people to see whats going on. I can't really see anything, there's no lights, but I can hear the conversation.

"So, what are we doing again?" I hear a man say.

"Basically, we need to find the area in the store with the most power. Then, I can send a power surge through the city, hopefully shutting the Cybermen down." This time, I recognize the voice, it's the Doctor.

"Won't that, like, affect us?" A young woman says.

"Nope, only things that run off artificial power. Have I answered all questions and concerns? Good! Look around and see if you can find a power source," the Doctor says. They all split up, and I look around myself (It's not like it will help them, but I don't have anything better to do). I start to look for where they power the freezers, but that's when I hear a man shout, "What about this?"

I run off to the source of the voice, but the Doctor's already beaten me. He's scanning a large battery with his sonic screwdriver, a small device that does just about anything (except things made of wood, apparently.) "Brilliant!" He says, "This is perfect, now I just need to attach this to it..." He attaches some device I can't make out onto the battery. "Okay, now everyone stand back, this has a small chance of exploding." Everyone but the Doctor backs up. He sonics the device, and the battery starts to hum. The Doctor backs up behind a display, and we all wait. The lights of the store flicker for a second, but then we are surrounded by darkness once again.

"Was that all it is?" The woman from before asks.

"Did it work?" A man asks.

"Only one way to find out," the Doctor says. They all get up, and rush out of the building. I follow a few paces behind them. They all slowly walk out of the building. Once I've walked out, I look around.

All the Cybermen are on the ground, not moving a muscle. All the people who we're being held captive quickly run away from the Cybermen. They are all freaking out, but they all look happy to be alive.

"Well, that was easy, this looks like my que to leave," the Doctor says.

"Already?" A woman says, "Can't you stay?"

"Oh no, I've got places I need to be, I'm afraid."

"Well, thank you, Doctor. We all give our thanks."
And with that, the Doctor walked away. I follow him, to see where the TARDIS was this time. The TARDIS is the Doctor's time machine. It's how he gets from place to place. It looks like a small blue box on the outside, but on the inside it is huge! I watch as he walks in, and then shuts the door behind him. The light on top flashes, and the TARDIS makes this weird sound, but then it's gone.

My vision becomes blurry, I'm dizzy, and the sounds are becoming duller. I go lay in the grass, and shut my eyes. "Back to reality," I say.
