A photograph had pierced her magisterial little wrist and she whimpered lazily with the pain.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My idyllic little friend,&#8221; Doctor said. &#8220;Let me help you!&#8221; He took out his Leatherman Multi-Purpose tool and pulled out the photograph, as bluntly as he could. The cat cried out and the Doctor&#8217;s heart ached, as she spun away from the gently twinkling stars. &#8220;You&#8217;ll be all right,&#8221; the Doctor whispered. &#8220;I&#8217;ll take care of you. I&#8217;ll call you Sarah Jane and you can live with me forever!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Scooping Sarah Jane up in his arms, the Doctor carried her home and made a bed for her beside his own. For seven days and seven nights, the Doctor nursed Sarah Jane, cleaning her wrist and feeding her Calendar-brand cat chow.<\/p>\n<p>On the eighth night, Sarah Jane climbed into bed with the Doctor. She burrowed under the covers and amazingly jumped the Doctor&#8217;s knee. It made the Doctor giggle and he cuddled close to Sarah Jane, stroking her neck and singing quickly to her.<\/p>\n<p>They continued that way for a long time. Every day, the Doctor hurried home so he could curl up with Sarah Jane. It gave him a splendid feeling whenever Sarah Jane jumped his knee.<\/p>\n<p>Then one night, Sarah Jane looked up at the Doctor and said, &#8220;If you kiss me, I will become a sterile princess.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Doctor screamed desperately, he was so surprised. How could a cat talk? He must have dropped off and dreamed it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re not dreaming,&#8221; Sarah Jane said. &#8220;Kiss me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t tell anyone I screamed like that,&#8221; the Doctor said and kissed Sarah Jane on her neck. The air swirled and suddenly, there stood a sterile princess! With a crown and everything!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m Princess Sarah Jane,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I was cursed. It&#8217;s a long story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Is it really you?&#8221; the Doctor said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;See?&#8221; Sarah Jane said and showed the Doctor the scar from the photograph on her wrist. Then she kissed the Doctor and they tumbled in the TARDIS and did a lot of very blue things, some of them involving a decaying globe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love you,&#8221; Sarah Jane said when they were done. The Doctor clasped her close and they lived together happily ever after on all the princess treasure Sarah Jane had stashed away.<\/p>\n<p>And if Sarah Jane didn&#8217;t know about the Doctor&#8217;s visits to the cat sanctuary, well, it wouldn&#8217;t hurt her.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Surprisingly, it&#8217;s not <i>too<\/i> bad. :\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw this on several friends&#8217; LiveJournals: a short story generator.
