A/N: Hello! 😁

I meant to get this up earlier than this, but I got a bit distracted. ☺️ I'm trying to put together a new FanFic series that will follow along the lines of the newer Star Trek re-boot films. ❤️ So yeah, that's been taking up a bit of space in what I call my "writing mind palace". 😉 It'll be a (Spock x OFC), (McCoy x OFC) AND (Kirk x OFC) pairings. I've created three brand new OCs for this series and I love them all to bits! 💕 Anyway, if you're a fan of Star Trek, then you have something new to look forward to from me. 💖

Now, back to THIS story! 😂

This is basically what I'm calling a prequel to "The Rings of Akhaten". It's really just the first little part of the episode. The Doctor and Lexi go back into Lucas's and Clara's timelines and see how the two friends came to be. 😃

Enjoy! 😘

Outside, Street, Day...

"Are you sure we're not intruding too much?" Lexi muttered as she and the Doctor walked down the street in 1981.

"We just need to make sure." The Doctor replied as he took in their surroundings. A lovely and breezy autumn day with dry leaves blowing around everywhere. "We never checked the other ones' pasts before."

"I suppose it'll be good to see this Clara's and this Lucas's pasts." Lexi shrugged before giggling slightly. "I feel like we're kinda stalking them, in a sense."

"I wouldn't go that far." The Doctor said.

"You sure?" She quirked an eyebrow at her husband.

"...Okay. Maybe a little." He admitted after a moment. "Still, we don't want to make the same mistakes again like we did with their past selves."

"True." Lexi couldn't help but agree.

The Doctor nodded before noticing four certain people.

"There." He pointed before quickly hiding behind a mailbox, making Lexi roll her eyes.

"Oh, yeah, hide behind a mailbox. That'll he--" She was cut off as the Doctor yanked her behind the mailbox with him so they could watch the scene in front of them unfold.

Two young men walked along the sidewalk, one attempting to read his newspaper as the other one seemed to be trying to fix his watch as it had stopped ticking.

Suddenly, one of the leaves flew right into one of the young men's faces, causing him to bump into the other young man and making both of stagger off the road. Before an oncoming car could hit them, two young women reached out and grabbed them, pulling them to safety.

"Oh, my stars!" Ellie Ravenwood gasped. "Are you all right?"

"Are you okay?" Margo Emerson asked in concerned as she held the man by his shoulders.

As Dave Oswald removed the leaf from his face, James Harper looked up from his now seemingly magically ticking watch.

Both men smiled at the two women. "Yeah."

Lexi smiled at the scene. "All their parents met at the same time..."

Outside, Street, Night...

Dave and Ellie huddled together under an umbrella as thunder rumbled while they ran up the stairs to the front door of Ellie's house.

"So, I've got something for you." Dave told Ellie as he reached into his pocket for something.
