How the battered Rose did cry as she gazed upon the star lit sky above. Tears fled down her cheeks, clouded with her grief and pain as her body was racked with sobs. In the navy blue blanket that backed the stars, she saw his grin, cheeky and boyish but his eyes so filled with time and age, brown orbs that reflected his emotions so clearly that they could have well been the very windows into his soul.

She brought her fists hard upon the soil, feeling the scabs that had only just hardened split and ooze. The pain was numb to her though, washed away in the anger that flooded her mind.

'Your fault' The voices muttered in her ear, breathing around her earlobe as though to tease. 'Killer...Killer that's what you are!'

'You tried to blame him...' The second purred, drawing a claw along the back of her neck so that her spine chilled. 'How very unfortunate that the green monster plagued your mind...But you could have chosen instead of blooding those sweet hands of yours.'

"Shut up! Go away!" She wept, swiping her hands behind her as though to slap the faces away. "I didn't! I didn't do anything!"

'Oh, nothing was it'?

'Nothing being a nasty fall or a misplacement of a knife?'

'In his side!' They cackled horrifically, licking their invisible lips as though to taste the bitterness of their own words. Rose knelt there, taking this in as though a sudden mist was being wiped from her memories, clearing the fog to reveal the red stains.

'Crashing the TARDIS...Crashing his skull...' Sniggers.

"No...No, I didn't...I didn't mean it!" Rose dug her hands into her face, gripping the skin so hard, fighting to remember her not doing it. Not killing him.

"Rose? What are you doing?" He asked, concern flooding his face as the figure approached him, something gleaming in one hand while the brown eyes glimmered with hate.

"You ruined me!" Came a hiss.

"Doctor?" She murmured. "No. Please. What...Why?"

"Rose, what's wrong with you? This isn't you." He pleaded, but he stood firm, not wanting to back away. "What has happened to you?" She gave a short laugh and advanced.

"Nothing has, Doctor" She muttered. "I'm taking a revenge that should have been committed so long ago."

"Revenge? Who is this?" The Doctor growled, his eyebrows knotting into fury. "What have you done with Rose?"

"You fool. I am Rose." The blade began to move forwards and began to plunge.

Rose began to scream, fresh, hot tears streaming from her bloodshot eyes.

He gave a cry of pain and looked at the knife in his reddening side. His eyes seemed to brim with tears before he collapsed onto the floor with a grunt. Rose's eyes fluttered and horror began to encircle her mind, coiling its tail and squeezing until she began to scream. Around her, the TARDIS began to screech and the lights flickered. The control column began to implode on itself and shot fiery lashes around the roam. They burnt her hands and she stumbled backwards, bursting through the doors as everything began to glow with the flames.

The burns on her hands...They told the story far better that then memory did. Rose began to shake violent as her final flash of recognition beckoned her, showing her the TARDIS crashing into the earth, herself being thrown from the doors and left to sleep.

'Not so innocent now, are you?' The voices grumbled. 'Not the sweet smelling rose that you should be, but blackened by your own hate.'

"I...I didn't...Why did...?" She tripped over her words, lost in the tangle of thoughts that were slowly tearing her apart. She placed her head in her unforgiving hands again, letting the nails dig in so that they imprinted their crescents in her grubby skin.

'Of course, we had to help. Just a tad...'

"What do you mean?"

'Well, you weren't getting anywhere with all of that 'lovey-dovey' attitude.' One sneered. The other laughed softly.

'We eradicated you a bit, made you raw, bloody...Fresh...'

"No! I, I loved him! I never hated him! Never!" She cried.

'Don't lie to us. We are you. The part of you that you'd usually wish never spoke. The monsters in your mind.'

'We don't appreciate lies...Lies are what makes us hungry...'

"Please, leave me alone. Go away!" Rose begged.

'As if we could. You're our new plaything; we cannot just let you subside into grief. You need to feel the hate, the rage!'

'We're the only ones that can let you see. Defy us and we'll blind you once more. You wouldn't want to be mixing blood now, would you?'

Something was brewing in her mind. A throbbing thing that roared and shrieked. She was briefly reminded of the living plastic from long ago. Their first time together. Then he'd changed. Changed into the ever love struck among everyone. Selfish, cruel...He'd replaced her. That French mistress, the old companion, Mickey. She missed Jack. Missed him more than ever. She knew where he was, where he had been for the past year.

'Ooh, Jack now?' One exclaimed. 'He never left your side, did he?'

'Not that I recall...He'd understand. He'd help. He has no mistress or Sarah-Jane by his side. You brought him back to life, gave him something that no other will ever understand.' The second seemed to encourage her to her feet.

For the first time, Rose looked around. She was in the middle of a field somewhere, probably the country side. There were smouldering bits of the TARDIS around her, but the main ship was mostly intact, laid on its side as though comically pushed over. The blue paint was scorched slightly and one of the doors was ajar.

'Dare you enter?'

'See your own handiwork. See your own crime.'

'Perhaps if you did, you'd stop denying us, blaming us of lying.'

'Go.'

Rose began to limp forwards, her wrecked body shuddering with a sick feeling of anticipation. Did she really want to see him dead? See the one she loved so dearly?

'You don't. You may have done, but he cheated you. Cheated your heat.'

"I gave my life for you." She murmured as she came to the front of the TARDIS, placing her hand on the wood. She half-expected to feel the TARDIS leap back away from her bloody touch. But it remained still and silent, like a grave.

Kneeling down painfully, Rose pulled the door opened and crawled in.

This is a kinda new writing style for me, so please bear with it if it sucks. I'd love to hear you views on how I should improve it or anything! I hope it isn't too confusing with the two voices...Please review!
