At first she thought it was, a jewel in the heavens calling for her attention- bright and more alive than she would normally have given a star credit for. Of course, ever since she started this whole Doctor-hunt one of the things she has learned is that the north star is not in fact, the brightest star in the sky. Separating fact from fiction is one of the toughest parts of this pursuit. This star was brighter than the one up in the north, so, it was something else altogether.
She tries to place it though, figure out what to call this beacon in the sky.
No matter how much time she spends with her Gramps on the hill, or listening to some astronomer, she'll never understand star charts. How to plot out the heavens. Eventually she decides it's a bit wrong to try and find it it's proper name. It's probably just some silly designation anyway, like she's learned most of the stars in the sky are labeled.
She doesn't want to turn it into some letter-number combination, it's too..inhuman, to call it that. As silly as it sounds, even to herself, she likes to think that this star watches her as much as she watches it.
It's special, her star (because she likes to call it that, her star) that one right there, that no one else seems to be able to point out but her. The light that it gives, that some nights, she thinks just falls on her. Showing.. no, illuminating, the way.
Because Donna knows. This star is going to lead her to the Doctor.
