For Those We Have Lost
Chapter One: Traffic
For cleared his throat. "I, The For of Galifrey-"
"For don't do this!" The Doctor called, standing up again and glaring at the communicator.
"do hereby take upon myself the solemn duty,"
"For stop!" he cried in desperation, attacking the door again with his fist.
"in rightful place of the Grand High Councillor, of carrying out the laws of time and space."
"For please!" He stopped pounding the door, sliding down the frame again to kneel infront of it, his hands still upon the ice cool metal. For was starting the manipulation. He was alone, without help, without friends, being trialed and executed for a crime that he knew he couldn't run from forever. "I'm sorry."
"So am I Doctor," For said, clearing his throat of the tears. "So am I. The Doctor, you are hereby charged with the genecide of the Darlek race and the destruction of your own people, friends and family. How do you plead?"
"Guilty," The Doctor whispered, his fingers clenching into a tight ball, as he gave it up.
"Then I sentence you to erasure from time and space, and I pledge to undo the crimes that you have commited until my dying breath. Goodbye my friend. I wish there was another way, but you brought this upon yourself. You murdered us all."
The Doctor knew this was the end. His fixed point of death at Silencio Lake didn't matter is he was completely erased from time. Killed by his own friend, which was exactly what he had already done, to everyone he'd ever loved or cared for.
"I know," he muttered, his head flat against the cold vibrating tile. "I know."
That was when he heard a second buzz, a louder, stronger buzz that swelled to a crackle and then it cut off completely with a crack. The Doctor lifted his head slightly and saw a pair of brown leather boots, scuffed and well-worn standing infront of him.
Attached to these boots were a pair of jeans, a brown belt with a leather holster and then a white shirt and a denim jacket over that. That was when he saw her soft but alert features and her massive amounts of curled, blond(-ish) hair. "Hello Sweetie."
The Doctor scrambled to his feet and looked her up and down incredulously. "And what time do you call this?" She linked arms with him and laughed, hanging from his stiff frame.
"Sorry dear, the traffic was terrible!" And with that she pressed a button and they vanished, The Doctor wincing as time and space warped around him and the room disappeared from view.
A/N: Short huh? Well I'll upload the next chapter right after this one then :P I have been gone awhile :) But The Doctor is safe though :D For now... but his hardest fight is just beginning.
