FROM THE OUTSET, HEβD ASSUMED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING PARTICULARLY SPECIAL ABOUT HIS VERY LATEST DESTINATION, AND IT WAS A PLEASANT SURPRISE. After all, randomΒ as the old girl tended to be with her navigation, she almost always tended to choose places where, coincidentally enough, her pilotβs services were needed in one way or another. It had become an exciting, if not predictable method of travel, although even heΒ experienced the urge for a holiday every now and again. Thus, the sight of what appeared to be a beach of all things succeeded in lifting his spirits almost immediately.
SWIFTLY DECIDING THAT AN AFTERNOON IN THE SUN WAS FIRMLY ON THE CARDS, HE DISCARDED HIS HAT AND JACKET TO THE TARDISβ COATSTAND, BEFORE STEPPING OUTDOORS AND LOCKING THE DOOR BEHIND HIM. From there, he offered an amicable glimpse of his surroundings - oddly emptyΒ for one thing, but otherwise idyllic. He was seldom going to complain about a little peace and quiet.
WADING THROUGH THE SOFT, HOT SAND, HIS GAZE WAS FIRMLY SET ON THE OCEAN AHEAD AS HE STROLLED EVER-CLOSER, FULLY DETERMINED TO INDULGE IN THE SELF-CARE THAT, IN HIS MIND, HE DESERVED. However, without warning, he stopped, frowning as his thoughts became enveloped with something, although he could not determine what it was.Β
TELEPATHY WAS A DUBIOUS GIFT AT THE BEST OF TIMES, AND ONE THAT HE SELDOM UTILISED UNLESS ABSOLUTELY PARAMOUNT FOR THE TASK AT HAND. However, there existed a burning familarityΒ at the atmosphere that had settled into his psyche - heβd experienced this sensation before.
THERE WAS SOMEONEΒ HERE WHO WAS KNOWN TO HIM - SOMEONE WHO HAD BEEN A PART OF HIS EXISTENCE A VERY LONG TIME AGO. The only matter he had to establish now was whoΒ that person was.
