Transgender Companion Prelude

My name is Alice and I am what you might say not your usual teenage girl. I’ve lead a more fortunate life compared to my peers as I’ve attended a good school, never had to deal with bulling, and even came from a well-off family who were very accepting of me and who I am. With their help, I would transition from a boy into a girl with no financial roadblocks.

I work at a drug store in the photo development department. Photography has been a long-time passion of mine and someday I hope I could earn enough money to travel the world even though I remain fearful that someone out there may discover the truth regarding my existence. My parents told me that I should have access to more opportunities than other transwomen in the world and even tell me that I am beautiful. But they are my parents so naturally they just want to be supportive.

It was a regular day as I started to head off to work. I usually ride the city bus since I cannot drive yet. Something strange happened as I overheard a loud and almost screeching noise in the distance. Shadows off the wall in front of me showed some strange box that slowly seemed to come into existence and out came a shadow of a man or what looked to be a man. Realizing that I had left for the bus an hour early I decided to peek around the corner to see what it was. I noticed a strange blue box. Like an old London police box from the 1960’s. I didn’t realized that they still used them anymore. That was the day when I met the Doctor. Oh, how I was so naïve about how my life was going to change.

The Doctor has this tool he calls his Sonic Screwdriver. For me, I have my Sonic… um… camera. Now I take pictures all across time and space and my life now has that added excitement I so craved.
