Hi! This is the first piece of FanFic I've ever written so I would really appreciate it if you could critique or give me some pointers. Thanks!


It's your fault. You always get them hurt. Sure, you say it'll be dangerous, but you never really tell them what could happen. You never tell them that they could die. Adric, now there was a good fellow, he didn't know it would end that way. In a ball of fire, Cybermen screaming his execution. He didn't know.

Martha's gone. Still, it could have been worse. She could've died. Oh who am I kidding, she's scarred for life. So's her family. She should have told her mother where she was going, what she was doing. Too late now. The battle's over and done with.

And Rose… No. She wouldn't want you thinking like that. She told you before that she wanted to come, no matter the risk. But maybe if she had known the risks…

No. It was her own fault. All of their own faults. They all wanted to travel, to see the stars. And that's what I gave them. I gave them all the whole of time and space. And it ruined them.

Even Sarah. Her life ended for such a long time. Only Maria and Luke saved her and kept her changing lives like she did on the TARDIS. She didn't want to leave. Why would she? But she had to. I had an appointment on Gallifrey.

Gallifrey… I could've saved it. I didn't have to end it like I did. I could've found another way to end the War… It wasn't their fault the Daleks hated the Timelords, it's yours. You made them hate your people. If you hadn't landed on Skaro all those years ago, if you hadn't decided to trick Ian into thinking you had to stay longer than you did… Selfish foolish old man. You deserved to go. Not them. Never them.

But it's too late now, the battle is over and done with. And I am alone.
