Your TARDIS arrives in a small park in Tokyo circa 2013. You are drawn here by a feeling. You see a deception. Something in this year happens that turns Earth into a future Dystopia in the next milenium, and it involves some sort of magical device called the Imperium Silver Crystal.
You just step out of the machine when a monster runs past you... It looks like a cross between a spider and a turnip with 6 large vine-like tendrils sprouting from it lashing out at anyone near you.

The Doctor
The Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS, wearing her coat over her regular clothes, as she snapped her fingers, causing the door to close behind her. According to her knowledge, she'd fit in just fine at this time of the year (and this year) with her regular clothes, so she saw no need to wear anything out of the ordinary (for her anyway; she did look like someone's professional secretary, after all). She was expecting to just take a little walk, and mingle with the locals, until she could find a calm spot where to relax her mind and properly feel the Turn of the Universe.
What she WASN'T expecting, however, was a large spider-turnip-like monster running around attacking people.
Surprised, she reached for her Sonic Screwdriver, but first tried something else, before resorting to her favorite tool. She attempted to implant a psionic suggestion in the creature's mind (provided it had one), a very simple one: calm down and relax. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13 stones into Telepathy (Telepathic Suggestions) plus 3 from Genius, in an attempt to make the creature calm down and relax, and as such, stop attacking people.

You manage to convince it to stop as it freezes for a moment.
"MARS FLAME SNIPER!!!" You hear as a large arrow made of Fire pierces the monster through the back, killing it instantly. You turn and see a raven haired woman in a sailor suit, Sailor Mars. Your past selves had met this woman both here, back during the silver millennium, and the future crystal Tokyo, but this is your first time seeing her in your new body.
"You!" Mars yells. "I don't know who you are, but you got a lot of nerve stealing the Doctor's TARDIS!!!" She yells running at you aiming a kick at your face.

The Doctor-W...wait! Hold on! No need for violence!, the Gallifreyan woman said, raising her arms to protect herself (as she knew too well what a kick from a transformed Sailor Senshi could do to her cheekbones), I AM the Doctor. I'm fairly certain I told you this before, Sailor Mars, but the TARDIS is both sentient and very loyal to me. Even with the proper technological knowledge, you can be fairly sure it wouldn't obey just about anyone, let alone a thief. This should be proof enough that it is, in fact, me, wouldn't you agree?!---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 stones into Close COmbat (Boxing, Hand-to-hand), all into defense, for a total of 10 defense, in case Mars does not stop in time, lol. 7 stones into Social Skills (Socialize, Pacifist) plus 2 from Presence into trying to convince Mars to lay off the kick first, ask questions later attitude

You fail to convince Mars in time to stop her kick, but you do manage to block and grab her lower leg.
"Doctor, that's you? I didn't realize you could regenerate into a... a...." She's almost reluctant to complete the sentence.

The Doctor
The Doctor (reluctantly) released Mars' lower leg (though not before giving it a slightly uncomfortably interested look), glad that she had managed to somehow block that kick, before explaining enthusiastically:
-...A ginger! I know! ...And to think it took 11 regenerations to actually get there. I was starting to think I'd never get the chance to experience th-
She paused, off Mars' puzzled look.
-...Oh. You meant 'a woman'. My apologies... I should have guessed that. Um, nevertheless, yes, indeed. A Time Lord's regeneration may change most anything from one's previous self, including, but not limited to, one's personality, personal tastes, hobbies, habits, height, weight, apparent age, and, as you have just learned, gender. It just happens to be a somewhat more noticeable change than most of my former ones, is all. Yet, still, it is me, I assure you. I've got to say, it is quite pleasing to see you. I'm afraid I have been lacking in terms of pleasant company since my last regeneration, and a friendly face is a welcome sight indeed.

"I see." Mars says lowering her leg back down. "So what brings you to this time?"

(OOC: Rei seems to be comfortable with the idea that the Doctor travels through time... is it possible that she might have been a companion of 'his' in her previous regenerations, or is she just a friend who knows about him more than most?)
The Doctor
-I wish I could say either 'good news', 'shopping' or 'vacation', but I'm afraid it is neither of the latter, and even less the former, the redhead said, taking in a deep breath of relief after having avoided getting her teeth kicked in. She moved the hair on the left side of her head behind her ear, before absentmindedly touching the lobe of her ear. Ever since she had regenerated, this had been a mannerism of hers whenever she was thinking things through without much hope of figuring things out at a given point.
-I had a certain feeling about this very time period, some sort of... a warning. My Time lord Spider Senses, if you will. Something is wrong with it... a specific event which might lead this world in a direction it really doesn't want to follows. A deception of sorts... the feeling is rather vague at the moment. I must stop something specific from happening that will turn this world into a much more unpleasant version of itself within the next millenium. And all I know about it at the moment, is that it will for some reason revolve around the Imperium Silver Crystal.

(I was actually going for the fact that the Senshi have had several run-ins with the Doctor during their various incarnations, and aided each other on several adventures.)
"Oh my, that sounds bad. I should call the other senshi, and we can discuss what to do about this."

The Doctor
-I wonder..., the Doctor began, unsure of how to put what she had to say to Rei without vexing her. I honestly would rather not ask you this, believe me... but is every last of your friends, every one in your group, who knows about the Silver Crystal... 'fully' trustworthy? For example... do you trust every single last one of them with your life?
She grimaced, not quite liking the way it came out despite being careful about it.
-I simply mean, you know them better than I do. And... the feeling I had was one of deception. Betrayal... perhaps. It was unclear, but I fear the source of the problems in the future might be closer to us than we expect it to be. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7 stones into Social Skills (Compassionate, Pacifist, Charm) plus 2 from Presence, to try and ask her about the level of trust she has in all of her companions, and to make her understand I do not want to vex her or them by asking.

"Don't be ridiculous. Of course we can trust them!" Rei yelled getting on her communicator and calling the other girls requesting a meeting at her Shrine. "Okay... We should head to Hikawa shrine now." She said asking you to follow her. "hang on... I need to de transform." She says running into an ally and emerging dressed in a red sweater, black slacks, and black open-heeled flats.

The Doctor
-Very well, the Doctor said, hoping that Sailor Mars was right. The fact that she seemingly trusted them all was either a very good, or a very bad thing. It meant that either they were all trustworthy... or that if some weren't, (at least) Sailor Mars trusted them fully. The Doctor honestly hoped the Senshi were all responsible and smart enough to realize how dangerous the Silver Crystal could be in the wrong hands... and that whatever 'deception' they were trying to stop had nothing to do with a betrayal.
She waited for Mars to transform back, welcoming her back with a smile.
-Those powers of yours and your friend's never cease to amaze me. Such energies... Magic being able to duplicate the effects normally only available through extremely advanced technology... it's nothing short of brilliant! But you're right, let us head over to the Hikawa shrine, I can't wait to see everyone again.

You both walk back to the Shrine, Rei slipping off her shoes as she steps inside. "I'm gonna get some tea ready. The others should be here soon." She said padding towards the kitchen.

The Doctor
-Oh, tea... What a wonderful idea! I'D like a touch of milk and one sugar in mine, if you please.
The Doctor imitated Rei as she slipped out of her pumps once inside, leaving only her stockings keeping her skin from full contact with the floor. She looked around, remembering a thing or three. It had been quite a while, relatively speaking, since she had last visited the Sailor Senshi. She looked at her surroundings as she waited both for tea and for her old friends. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using "Feel the Turn of the Universe" to remember how long ago, from their viewpoint, I last visited the Senshi.
Also spending 3 stones into Intelligence plus 3 from Genius, using Photographic Memory, to look around and see if I remember something interesting.

You remember your last visit was just over a year ago. When the Daleks tried invading Japan only to be beaten black and blue by the majority of Japan's superhumans. You look around and notice the sacred fire Rei used for clairvoyance-type rituals
"Hello, Rei I'm here?" You hear a meek voice as a bluenette in a blouse, long skirt and flats walks in, slipping them off before coming in. "Oh... I'm sorry, I didn't realize Rei had company." She apologizes not recognizing you.
