Saving My Impossible Girl

Clara had been unconsciousness for hours. Travelling through his timestream had flooded her brain with an overload of thoughts and emotions from all of her other echoes. Brainpower on that scale is intolerable for a human mind to cope. Carrying Clara tightly in his arms, The Doctor had rushed back to the Tardis. Her chest was pressed firmly against The Doctors' and he had felt her heartbeat weaken with every second.

As soon as they were behind the blue wooden doors, he lay Clara down and wired her up to the Tardis and scanned her for vital signs. The sudden intensity of information forced into her brain was far too much for her to handle and she was rapidly fading. The Doctor, frantic and distraught, could think of only one thing that would save her.

Crouching down beside her, he softly placed his hands on her head. "This has to work. Please, oh please work.", he said on the verge of tears. He shut his eyes and felt his palms heat up with blazing energy. Soon enough, a bright yellow glow had surrounded his hands and with forceful psychic persuasion, the light was absorbed into her mind. The Doctor felt the burning heat radiating from deep within Clara's brain. He opened his eyes and saw the energy working hard to repair the damage. However distressing the situation was, she looked beautiful. The warm brightness encircled her head like a halo and she was the vision of a fallen angel, The Doctor thought. After moments had passed, the light began to dissipate, leaving her body still on the cold floor.

"Clara?", The Doctor's heart was pounding fast and he was holding his breath for fear of the worst. He glanced up at the Tardis screen and saw that her vital signs were gradually restoring back to normal. "Thank you, thank you," he breathed with a great sigh of relief and gratitude. The Doctor cautiously picked her up from the floor, cradling her body, and carried her to his bedroom. He tucked her snuggly in his soft bed and gave her a tender kiss on her sleeping forehead. "Rest well my Clara, you are safe now.", he whispered, closing the doors quietly, knowing it will take her a while to regain consciousness.
