    “I'm the Doctor”
      One day, in a place outside of time and space, a place where time and death and life stood still, there was a great man. This man was the architect of the universe, and he had designed everything down to it's atoms, but he was sad because everything eventually died. So he tried creating new life and new worlds, but eventually even those ended, so he designed the Void, where nothing would live or die, but this emptiness eventually left him bitter and twisted. The Architect decided to destroy everything he had made one by one, but one man was brave enough to stand up. And with him, came others. Others who would fight back! This man was.. The Doctor. The Doctor travelled far and wide, and with him, came his companions. Strong heroines of every kind and cast, who in some ways were even greater than him, because they completed him. And wherever he went, he didn't preach war or anarchy, he just gave people hope. With three simple words. "The Doctor comes." Eventually, these three words became a roaring tirade of defiance against The Architect among the universe, and wherever they were uttered, be it a war-torn planet or utopian galaxy, they brought hope. And change. And people started to fight back against the Architect. Not with weapons or blades, but with simple, golden, magnificent, hope. As the words grew into something more than just a phrase, more than just words, a symbol, a weapon, a life, people grew to match The Architect, and overcome him Despite the difficulty and death that lay ahead, people rose up, and were about to strike the killing blow, when suddenly... "Stop!" It was The Doctor. No one had seen him for years, he had become a martyr, a myth, but now, when humanity was about to become what it had been fighting against, a killer, he came. He stopped them. Not with violence, or deceit, or lies. With truths. The simple truth that if they killed this being, they were no better than him, and they stopped.
A short story I wrote for my best friend ever! Obviously, I don't own Doctor Who XD

Good morning Jaffa6,


I have read your story , I am the Doctor and found it written in a colourful and descriptive way.  It differed from your other writing in that it was plausible and did not seem to be written so as to shock the reader.  An eloquent piece.  Well done.  Below were some other grammar points I noticed.


were even greater than him    (Him should be "he" for if the sentence were lengthened to its full meaning it would read greater than he is.  the verb is implied in the sentence.)
 tirade of defiance against The Architect among the universe  (The word "among" might be better exchanged for the word "throughout"  I think it captures your meaning better.
 and overcome him    This needs a full stop before "Despite"
 no better than him   (again he not him see above note for explanation.
