WARS LEFT SCARS, this was a fact that was hard to swallow but it was true all the same. Wars were not kind to people, no matter who they were. No matter if you thought you were doing the right thing, war was a bloody and gritty thing stirring up grief and leaving devastation in its wake

Whoever's side ended up winning, both sides were left with a loss no matter how much time had passed. It was never enough. The Doctor wasn't the only one to bore scars from the Time War but he was perhaps the one that bore scars more deeply than most because he was the last of his kind and that was a sort of weight that even he couldn't outrun, no matter how hard he tried

The Doctor who was constantly running away, running towards danger, saving lives and putting them (mostly unintentionally) in danger, was a product of war. Maybe that was perhaps why Estrella's heart sunk into their stomach when The Doctor mentioned they were going to help Churchill with his war efforts -- Estrella didn't think that was such a good idea, but their gentle redirection that Estrella tried without telling him how much she knew about him

But The Doctor was not one to be redirected

Which was frustrating but Estrella decided to just let it go and let The Doctor do his own thing because if there was one thing Estrella knew from all the stories about The Doctor it was that you could not get him to do something he didn't want to do and nothing could hold him back from an adventure

Estrella just knew they would have to keep an eye on him and comfort him when he needed it. It was like a sixth sense, they didn't know when they would need to comfort him, just that they would and with that, they said little more

So while The Doctor was sorting things out for them to travel to their next adventure. Estrella James and Amy Pond were left to explore, after they changed clothes Estrella let her excitement get the better of them. The starry-eyed and wanderlust child inside of them was squealing with joy. Everything about the TARDIS was exciting to them as they looked in every room possible (although it was nearly impossible as the TARDIS was that big) the whole TARDIS was like a maze and could be an adventure within itself that they almost lost track of the fact that it wasn't and they were going on another adventure

"Hang on you two, we're setting off to England 1940's" The Doctor called to them and with a giggle Estrella raced back to the centre with the console with a huge grin on their face

"Having fun?" The Doctor asked them, mirroring Estrella's grin as he flipped a switch and the TARDIS was off again, flying through the stars and whizzing through time.

"Yes," Estrella nodded "Do you know you have this huge library?"

"I haven't been in there for a long time though"

"That's a shame, I'll have to take you there one time"

"Well...We'll have to wait because we're here and Churchill doesn't like to wait"
