HI GUYS! :)

Well, I'm a Doctor Who fan. I love the Doctor/Rose relationship and this is my tribute to them.

This story takes place about 5 months after the Doctor (10th Regeneration) leaves Rose with the dupicate(metacrisis) Doctor in the series four episode "Journey's End" and hopefully will extend from series 5 through series 6 and hopefully 7.

I really enjoy the rest of the Doctor Who series, but this is my "what if" story: if Rose is together with the Doctor again after being separated. The story will defiantly pick up the pace shortly in the next couple chapters with more plot to work with and definitely be longer.

This is a Doc&Rose fic so don't worry...it will be filled with great moments with them :)

While reading Rose's Diary in this chapter, listen to "Doomsday" composed by Murray Gold from the Doctor Who Series 2 album. CHILLSSSS. (and yes i cry every time).

Feedback is much loved/appreciated and please enjoy!


Written in the journal of Rose Tyler, parallel Earth 2008

Some people don't understand how a teenage girl from London, England, 21st century would want travel with a nine hundred and three year old alien around the universe. They don't get how she agreed to leave her family behind to explore time and space in a wonderful blue box with this mad man. And some people don't understand why she would love this man with all her being knowing that there was a risk of losing her life and heart completely. But then again, I'm not most people.

My name is Rose Tyler. I was that girl who traveled with the Doctor in that wonderful blue box called the TARDIS for nearly two years. I lived a life of adventure and excitement with him, having experienced more in a lifetime than most people can say. I fought off ghosts with Charles Dickens and witnessed the final moments of the planet Earth. I looked into the time vortex and stopped a werewolf from killing Queen Victoria.

We both saved countless of lives together, but I think most importantly we saved each other. And in a single moment, our fantastic life was ripped apart.

I was torn away from the Doctor and thrown into another universe, never to see him again. My beautiful Doctor, the man who I fell completely in love with was gone in an instant, and there was nothing I could do about it.

Nothing seemed to be right after that. I went through the motions of my life in this parallel world. I even joined Torchwood, an agency that keeps in contact with other lifeforms in the galaxy and defends the earth from harmful alien invasions. I admit that good things happened though: My mum and dad got pregnant and Mickey, my best mate, and I became closer friends than ever. Yet everywhere I turned, I hoped to see that skinny man in a dark brown coat with unruly hair and a cheeky smile saying "Where to, Miss Rose Tyler?"

And then the darkness came. Planets and stars started going out and the universe around us started to collapse. The world was dying. But, with the Torchwood research team, we created a dimension cannon so I could come back to my Doctor, to save the world again but to be with him too.

But...I think fate frowns upon a happy ending between us.

The Metacrisis was the price of saving my original universe. He is half Time Lord and half human and has all the memories of the Doctor. Not to mention he is the spitting image of him too. He was born out of war, with anger, fire, and fury burring in his heart. He killed the entire Dalek fleet without so much as a hesitation, not something my Doctor would do.

He is the reason I remain in this parallel world. The Doctor wanted me to help him to see the good in the world, even if it is corrupted. After the Doctor and Donna left me, I looked into the eyes of the metacrisis Doctor on that beach, and I imagined myself looking into the eyes of my Doctor. I thought that maybe I could do this. Maybe I could live a life knowing that my Doctor was off in another universe while I live with a man who is partly him. I made myself believe this at the time, because how could I face reality without breaking down as I did before.

As I sit now at my desk in the Torchwood office, and I think about the "what if" factors of my life; things that could never be. I've accepted my fate I guess, happy to be content with what has given me. Five months have passed and my universe is slowly picking up the pieces of what happened. Mom and dad have had their baby, Tony, who is the cutest thing you've ever seen. And the Doctor...well he is the Doctor. He comes into Torchwood and works on alien cases, using that brilliant mind of his.

When my Doctor left, I asked the metacrisis Doctor to give us space with all that's happen, and he agreed. I feel guilty for pushing him away when he needs me the most, but I'm still processing what's going on, and I know its the right thing to do for now.

I haven't talked him since that day on the beach 5 months ago. Sometimes in the hall we pass by each other and say hello politely. I can see the hurt in his sad smile and I know he sees it in mine. Maybe one day we can be together, but for now it will have to wait.

I don't know why I'm writing this down, but someone needs to know my story, and I don't care who does. I'm tired of hiding what I feel bout everything that has happened. Someone needs to understand how a 19 year old girl could fall in love with an impossible man. And whoever does read this, just know that with my story, its not an easy one to handle.


Torchwood Offices, Parellel Earth, 2009

"Hey, Rose! You wanna give me a hand with this box?" Agent Johnson shouted as the elevator doors opened.

Rose Tyler snapped her journal shut and rushed over to help him, supporting one side of the heavy box with both her hands.

"Blimey.. What have you got in there, Johnson?" Rose said as they shuffled over to his desk.

They planted it atop the messy pile on his desk and leaned against it to catch their breath. "The Doctor gave it to me for analysis. Something to do with some rocks that mysteriously appeared in some bloke's flat."

Rose heart squeezed a bit at the mention of the Doctor, but checked herself reminding her that he technically wasn't "him".

She tucked her hair behind her ears. "How mysterious are we talking about?" She asked, hoping he didn't catch her pause.

He didn't and replied, "Well, I shouldn't be telling you this because it's majorly classified..."

Rose glowered at him. Secrets did not sit well with her, especially during the late hours. "Look Johnson. You and I both know that I was one of the originals who built Torchwood up to what it is now, and do I need to mention I saved this universe? Just because I decided to work as a field agent doesn't mean that I don't have a right to know what's going on. So spill." She hoped her shift into authority drove her point home.

He wanted to protest, but Rose's glare pierced his thoughts. "Alright," he sighed. Johnson looked around to see if anyone was still here this late. He lowered his voice down so that only she could hear. "There was a crack one this old man's wall that appeared about a year ago. At first, he thought is was nothing. But then it just started to get bigger as time progressed. And last night," Johnson said as he opened up the box with a pocket knife, "these chunks of rock were all over his floor next to the crack. He reported it this morning to the police. The Doctor went over there to analyze it, but couldn't get anything oddly. He sent it to me for further research."

Rose looked into the box. At first, the pieces looked like any other rock, but the more she examined them, the more they started to look like...body parts...of a statue. She picked up the biggest piece, what looked like what appeared to be a head. She turned it around so what looked like eyes would look back at her. Her eyes roamed over its very weathered features.

Rose blinked and for an instance, the head's mouth opened with hideous fangs instead of teeth, but in another instant, the face of the statue returned to normal. She dropped the head suddenly into the box and took a step back.

"What's wrong?" Johnson questioned with a look worry etched on his face.

Rose realized her breathing had quickened. She hesitated, trying to find words. "Nothing. Nothing at all. I thought I cut myself on the rock," she said realizing how easy the lie rolled off her tongue. She turned around and walked to her desk, pretending to be busy with papers with her back to his.

He looked warily at her for a moment, but then accepted her answer. "Alright," he said as pick up the box and placed it in his drawer. "I best leave this to get an analysis for the Doctor tomorrow."

He picked up his coat on his chair. "I'm turning in for the night. You gonna be alright?"

Rose bit her lip with worry, but calmly replied. "Ya, I'll be fine. Thanks again, Johnson. I'll see you in the morning."

"Night," he rang out as the elevator doors closed.

Rose flounced in her chair with a thud. She placed her hand on the temples of her head, messaging the ache that coursed through her brain. She knew through experience that although the statue head might not be anything, it could be something. Rose inwardly sighed because she knew what she now had to do. There was no way in hell she'd have clearance to see that box again and there was only one man who would let her see it.

"Well, I can't avoid it any longer," she said to herself in the stillness of the room.

After five months of a tense silence, Rose was going to have to face to the Doctor.


TADA. there ya have it!

For anyone wondering why Rose wasn't transported when she blinked, well the "statue" (when I say statue...you'll find out if you already don't know...) doesn't have full power nor a complete body, plus this would be a very short story if that happens. I'll explain further more into the upcoming chapters.

Again, more plot/action/dramaness will be added in the next chapter (also muchhhh longer). This chapter was just to get the ball rolling on this story.

Oh and Johnson will not be making further appearance...just had to make someone to get the scene flowin.

I plan to add a new chapter by the end of this week so stay tuned :)

If I have any grammatical mistakes or anything, they were not done intentionally and I will edit it if need be.

Please do review and give me your thoughts on this! :) oh and Happy New Year!
