Not Your Hero

by Sing_o_clio

University student Emma is just trying to have her first normal day. So far, so good. Until she walks into an old close, and meets the Doctor. Until she gets unwillingly swept up in his adventure.

She just wants to get off this ride. But to do that, he has to take her home. And he's a little busy finding the source of a mysterious time ripple.

She's not a hero. But she'll have to do.
