"What do you want?"

It had been three years. A good three years, really, if she were to be honest. In the end, nearly dying at the proverbial hands of an insane AI and meeting an alien had turned out to be the catalyst that she'd needed to change her life. Now, three years after she'd met the Doctor, Maggie had a new life, and really, she was happy.

But she hadn't forgotten.

Every once in a while when exploring London she saw one of the old boxes. Tall and blue and always decaying, sitting forgotten in out of the way places. It was silly of her... but she always knocked. Always. She always knocked, and tried the door, and hoped that it was him. But it never was. The act had faded in meaning, into something half ritual and half superstition over time. The sightings of the boxes were rare, and her memories had grown ever more hazy over time. She remembered him, the Doctor. She remembered the AI, Mot, and she remembered the way he'd saved her, the sound of the blue box, and the advice he'd given her, and the dark, haunted look in his eyes. She remembered so very clearly, and yet some days it felt like it had all been a dream.

And then one evening, when she hadn't thought of any of those things at all in some time... she heard it. She heard the sound she remembered in dreams and imagination, and she didn't even think about  what she was doing. She ran.

She nearly slipped in the snow, her boots skidding on slick pavement in the alleyway where she tracked the noise, and she almost didn't believe her eyes when she saw the blue box, undecayed, perfect, just the way she remembered it, the windows glowing softly in the late evening streetlights.

//Hi all! Mun is out of town this weekend in a cabin in the woods without wi-fi. I'll post just as soon as I return on Monday evening, assuming I don't find myself in a horror movie... Not sure I'm Last Girl material, being the goth/gamer chick, but I'll do my best...
