Just a drabble that popped into my head after watching the rather amazing Day of the Doctor, which I hope you enjoyed as much as I did.
This is in the 10th Doctor's POV, looking back at what happened just as he steps into the TARDIS. This has literally come straight off the top of my head so I hope it's all right and that you enjoy! Let me know what you think! :)
Hope
I thought I had been running away all my life, I never realised I might be running towards something.
I certainly ran away from many things: the fire, the battle cry, the storm forever oncoming.
The screams of my own people.
But I kept on looking behind at the past and didn't look ahead to see that I was running towards my future too.
Towards my own redemption, to so many lives who can be saved. Towards the one thing I had thought I had lost a long time ago:
Hope.
I may forget what happened this day, but I know, I shall never lose hope.
