Political booms and an arrow in a crazy cat (CLARA

[Deleted]

The shouting was what drew him there. He hadnt been able to make it back to America, of course that didn’t mean there wasn’t enough excitement here in Liverpool . Whites eyes searched the street he stood at the corner of. People stood, raising their fists in defiance, some with they’re faces covered with bandanas, others dawned in the masks of their hero and Icon V. Some still took it farther then just yelling incoherently. Signs are raised, bullhorns were on, political slogans and speeches ringing from them. They wore black, the colors of defiance and rebellion. Colors he had longs since left, instead he wore a white leather trench and while shirt and cargo pants. A bit flashy but it was something new he was trying. It mad him feel better, happier even yet this crowd was angry and from what he could tell, there would still be more to come. This was more than just a street corner protest, these people were whipped into a frenzy by what they saw as unfair, and what was worse was this wasn’t anything new to the Time Lord. This was what his life once had been.

White watched for a moment, waiting to see if he could hear one of the speakers, maybe by that he could tell exactly what was going on, maybe even figure out if his newer self should even join….No he couldn’t do that, that was not his way anymore. He had driven his own son into doing things like this for the good of others….for the good of the future. Yet what had it gotten him…dead. Lochlan was dead and so was everyone else he had once loved…well except 8….but that was out of protection. Either way this was something he needed to stay away from…to stay back from and not be apart of…..Of course that was before….the large group of black armored and Police carrying Riot shields and batons showed up.

“Ahh hell.”

Clara wasn't one for political... well... anything. She was about souffles and traveling and children. She was not about rallies. Truthfully, she was only here for a pair of shoes she had seen in a window a week ago. Or was it two weeks ago? It was hard to say. Time travel had a funny way of throwing off your sense of time. It was like staying in a room that had no windows or clocks.

Well, Clara, as usual, was unlucky enough to have picked the store right in front of a political rally. These things almost never ended well. Hopefully she could just get in, and get out, without-Oh, hell... Everyone was wearing black... And today had to be the day she chose to wear a black dress. Great. She needed to find somewhere to-Oh come on! The police! Seriously?!

Clara tried getting off of the street, only to run right into the only person wearing white. Huh. "Oh, hi, um, can you hide me somewhere? This was not a good day to wear black!" She was used to asking strangers for help from traveling with the Doctor.

White felt the woman run into him before he actually saw her, but when he finally did lays eyes upon her he couldn’t help but smile. He remembered this woman all to well. She traveled with the Doctor, right? Yes that was it, she was one of HIS companions. The newest one he thought. Though there was something that wasn’t right….why was she by herself….especially in the middle of a scene that was DEFFINATLY about to get worse.

“Hide you? Yeah…how about we get out of here in a cleaner escape then normal yes?” grabbing her hand he took off in the opposite direction just as the shouts of rage and the explosions of tear gas started. He knew these sounds all to well and knew that more would come. If they didn’t run now they wouldn’t out run any of it and worst of all they probably wouldn’t be able to beat it out of the cloud of smoke that would bring them to they’re knees. At that moment though, that was NOT was he was thinking about. No, instead White was smiling….and even laughing. Not a dark laugh as he had once before, but a laugh of mirth and total enjoyment. HE WASN’T RUNNING INTO WAR!! He was running to escape the hell, to fight on another day and to finally be a better man.

“Who are you lady? Do I know you maybe?”

Ugh, this man! This man was... a lot like the Doctor. He grabbed her and helped her run away from danger, and laughed while doing it! And it was a wonderful laugh! Like he was sharing a joke with the best of friends.

Did he know her? Did she know him? Maybe... Hard to tell. "Clara Oswald! I have no idea! How about we stick to running? That seems like a good idea for now! Running! Maybe we can find something to cover this black clothing, too!"
