  Part Six              Sonia preferred if her TARDIS  had  been confiscated by the police rather than stolen by total strangers. Gotham City – this version of it, at least – hadn’t exactly welcomed her with open arms. First attempted murder, then blatant racism, and now she could add robbery to the list.              The news only added fuel to the fire between her and Alan.              Yet another argument exploded between them upstairs in the manor, specifically within the study.              “You shouldn’t have been there in the first place!”              “Oh, so  now  you’re trying to be my mama?!”           ...

To pass the time, Alan watched an old video recording – captured on his smartphone – of himself and Candace celebrating his 6th birthday. Candace was behind the camera, whereas little Alan was front and center with his triple-layered, purple-and-yellow birthday cake.              It was a time that he wished he could have gone back to, before his mother’s regeneration. Conceivably, he could. He had the TARDIS – a ship capable of traveling anywhere and anytime. He watched his mother operate the controls enough times to know how to fly it. All he had to do was go back to the docks, get into it, and stop the moment Candace was shot to prevent the regeneration.     ...
