The streets were quiet and shrouded in darkness, all that could be seen was a figure making its way from a darkened alley. No one paid any attention as she made her way down the street, then again who would suspect there was anything wrong. If they had, then they would of noticed she was dead. Well technically she wasn't, but if you looked at the Canary Wharf list of the dead you would see her name, Rose Tyler.

Ducking down an alley, she came to her old flat on the Powell Estate. The windows of her old flat remained empty and cold, nothing of the usual warmness they used to hold. The snowy atmosphere reminded her of the last Christmas she had spend here on the Powell Estate, where she lost her best friend and gained him back all in the space of a few hours. The Doctor, this was the reason she kept returning to the estate, hoping to meet up with him again or just to explain to him that she had lied at Bad Wolf Bay. Yes, she had her own little Time Lord to look after, well Time Lady. She hadn't meant to lie to him, but seeing his hopeful face when he had asked her, she couldn't do that to him, so she had lied.

Rose visibly shivered against the cold night air as she made her way towards the abandoned flat, maybe she could rest there a while, jumping between universes was tiring. The nearer she got to the flat, the more she sensed something wasn't right. She could see a small blue-ish light radiating from the small crack in the door, her time with the Doctor had taught her to be cautious, curiosity was better though so she stuck her head in and looked inside. The glow was coming from the living room and was quickly followed by voices,

"Why are we here? Doesn't look like a headquarters for an evil alien invasion"

There seemed to be amusement in the woman's voice, but the voice that answered was as enthusiastic,

"Just had to be here for some reason, the TARDIS wouldn't leave until I did"

"Maybe it's a sign, like fate or sumthin"

"Possibly, only fate doesn't exist"

Rose was frozen on the spot, not daring to believe that he was here and only a few feet away from here. But who was the woman that he was with? Had he moved on so quickly? A thousand thoughts were going through her head, she didn't even register when the door opened.

The woman in front of Rose stared at her will a look of familiarity as she stood up, the snow was heavily falling now which made her shiver even more. The woman in front of her ushered her inside quickly, ignoring her shouts of protest.

"Really I'm fine, I really have to leave"

"Listen, its snowing and your cold"

"Donna? What are you doing?"

There was a lengthy pause as the 2 pairs of eyes met, both wide with shock. This was who she had been searching for, the father of her daughter, the Doctor.
