The TARDIS was shaking,rumbling as the sound of nothing. Radiation, the silent killer. The Doctor ran around the console pushing buttons. He yelled at them, and they yelled matter what he would do there was no change, it was too late.
The Doctor was going to regenerate. He was tired, Clara had left him long ago. "Clara", he thought, "I must see Clara before I regenerate.". There was a burst of fury in him, the fury of a dying man. He could feel the process beginning in his bones and his blood. He had managed to pull the TARDIS out of its predicament. Some damage had been done, and it would need quite a few repairs. He was getting weaker, and his body was beginning to heal itself.

"It's 2020, and why? What happened, will you be alright ?," Clara asked. "I'm afraid not. I cut it a bit close with a field of radiation. I think we're in for another change again. You seen it before, I went from the stupid bow-tie, to me, the old man" he said. Immediately after, an orange glow began to emanate from his body. "Changing again, Thank you Clara for staying with me for this long..." Energy ripped through the Doctor's body, it contorted in a bright orange light, which danced around her flat. Clara averted her eyes, the light was too bright, and when she looked again, her eyes came to a curious sight...
