Author's Note: Hey, I just want to make sure you all know that my story is set in the season three finale and this version of it is when Rose finds a way back and tries to find the doctor but finds the Master instead.

Also, if there are any mistakes (spelling, grammar etc) I am sorry and I hope you can just ignore it and continue with the story

Disclaimer: I can dream and dream about owning Doctor Who I can only dream because I do not own it. I can also dream that I own a TARDIS and a Sonic Screwdriver and Physic Paper and that I know a person called the Doctor.

Rose's Point Of View

I shivered in my cell, moving around in the tiny space to keep warm. My breaths came in gasps as I tried not to panic at this new torture. I knew he was watching, wanting me to break down and provide entertainment. That thought was the only stopping me from breaking down. I curled up in one of the corners, I closed my eyes to try and sleep.

I struggled in their grip but it was a 19 year old who hadn't slept or eaten in weeks against two body-builders. I must have blacked out because the next moment the guards were pulling me down a hallway towards the only door I could see. Once we had reached the door, one of the guards knocked and I heard a voice that was to haunt me for weeks to come, it said, "Enter," the guards dragged me through the door and I was suddenly in front of the occupant of the room. I recognized him as Harold Saxon, one of the candidates for prime minister. He smiled at me, I lifted my head to glare at him. He just casually said, "so, Rose. How have you been? Talked to the doctor lately?" my glare turned into a stare, how could he know about the doctor, I tried to re-gain my mask but he had seen my face and knew. "well, tomorrow, you will start telling me everything that you and that man did together."

I broke my silence to ask, "What makes you think I am going to tell you that?"

he laughed in my face, "you will tell me because you will want the pain to stop. You will tell me things I know, things I don't need to know and then you will tell me everything you know just to stop the pain." he nodded to the guards who took me into the 'dungeon' and locked me up.

I woke with a start, I tried to stop the tears that were going to come. I had been looking for the Doctor ever since the scientists at Torchwood had found a rift that connected their world with this world. It gave me hope that I could find the man I love again. And once I had managed to cross the rift, I began my search for him. No matter how hard I tried, whenever I turned up at where the TARDIS had been sighted, it was gone. A tear trickled down my face as I continued to remember. I was in an alley near the hospital that had disappeared then reappeared. I had heard the TARDIS's engines, but as I reached the alley, two men had grabbed me. I saw a glimpse of the TARDIS before it disappeared. I had gotten so close. Then I was taken away from that alley. I was taken to see Mr. Saxon. After his promise of pain and a few torture sessions, Mr. Saxon had told me who he was. He even proved it. He had told me his real name and race. He was the Master, one of the two Time Lords left in this universe. I laid my head back down, trying to stop my silent sobs of fear that were shaking my entire body and fell asleep almost immediately. This time the dream was closer to the present time.

I opened my eyes to see the Master hovering over me. He grinned at me. His eyes looked so much like the Doctor's eyes, full of intelligence but I knew better. I knew that he was the exact opposite of the Doctor. "So, Rose. Are you going to tell me yet?" I shuddered at the sound of his voice but didn't reply, "Oh, come on. No need to be silent. If you tell me I will stop hurting you." after another moment of my silence he grinned at me but there was an evil look about it. He nodded to the guard who continued to whip me.

20 lashes later, he asked me again. Still I stayed silent. I had only broken once, I had heard him talking about the doctor and what he had planned and I begged him not to, but he just tossed me into a new cell. One that was so tiny I could touch both walls with my arms still bent, so tiny I could...

I woke to a banging on my cell door. I stood up, preparing myself for another whipping, but instead of taking me to the Master, they took me to a airport hanger and shoved me into the back of a plane. I had no idea where we were going but the thought of what the Master could do to me in the air when no-one would hear me scream in pain frightened me.

I must've fallen asleep because the next thing I felt was a rough hand jerking me awake. I opened my bleary eyes as I was pulled to my feet to see where I was. I gasped at the view. We in the air, on a aircraft which I assumed was the Valiant. I had overheard the Master planning and knew that once the president was murdered, the Master would order the Toclafane to kill a certain amount of the population below. I could only hope the Doctor would come to save everyone because I had no idea how to stop any of this.

After walking down many stairs and hallways, the guards shoved me into a room where I could see the conference. As they tied me to the wall with chains, I assumed by the way no-one in the other room looked at me, no-one could see into my little box and so I wouldn't be able to help any of them. Once the guards left I slumped down as far as I could with the chains tied to my wrists. I tried to stay awake but after a moment of battle I knew I had lost and was soon fast asleep.

_____________________________________

I heard people talking and I woke up to see the room in front of me was full, the president was about to start his speech. I knew what was going to happen and that knowledge made me sick because I couldn't do anything about it. I made myself watch as the president addressed the Toclafane. I made myself watch what was happening even though what I really wanted to do was to go down there and stop everyone and reveal the Master's plan. The Master ordered the Toclafane to kill the president, everyone was either, screaming, holding guns or ducking under the table. The Master started to talk to the people who were watching what was happening live. I couldn't stop my sobs as I realized the Doctor hadn't stopped what was happening, that he wasn't coming to save everyone this time. At least, not yet. It was then that I saw him. The Doctor. He was here. I could feel the relief inside me which was crushed almost immediately by despair when the guards grabbed him and put a stop to whatever plan he had. The Master was about to say something when the guards outside came in to take me somewhere else. As they pulled my out of the room I glanced over my shoulder to try and see what the Master had said but I was too late. Now I only had my imagination for company to come up with every idea possible of what the Master will do to the Doctor.

The guards held me onto my arms while we waited at a door. I could faintly hear the Doctor say, "I don't care if you want to fight. We can fight, we can fight across the stars and across galaxies but not here on Earth. Please."

the guards opened the door as I heard the Master reply, "But why not here. If we weren't on Earth then I would never have helped you be re-united."

The guards were pulling me around the edge and then to where the doctor was. I looked around the room to see Jack trying to get to the Master but failing to get past the three guards that were holding him back. There was a dark-skinned girl next to him, she was the first to see me and just stared at me, confused. I forgot about them as the guards shoved me onto my knees next to the Doctor "Re-united with who?" I heard the Doctor ask, the Master smiled and pointed at me. I glared at him, then looked back at the Doctor. My heart swelled with happiness of being near him again, even under these circumstances. He stared at me for a moment, probably trying to recognize me under all the dirt and blood that was covering most of my body. Then he realized who I was. He whispered my name. I smiled back at him in response.

"Rose, Rose, Rose. Still being a mute I see. I just know how much you have been wanting to see the Doctor again, now is your chance. Say what you've always wanted to say." the Master smiled. He wanted me to say something so I wasn't going to. I just smiled at the Doctor. The Master's smile turned to a frown. "Well, we'll have to work on that." he half walked, half skipped over to where his wife, Lucy, was. He grabbed her and addressed the people through the camera that was still running, "Well, everyone. Basically. It's the, umm. End of the world I suppose. Have fun. My Children, are you ready?" there must've been some signal for the Master then said, "Then fly, fly and killed one tenth of the population below. Make me proud, my children."

As the Toclafane flew down towards the Earth, the Master turned to look at the Doctor. I knew what he had planned for the Doctor and I my sobs were getting harder and harder to hold back.

"So, Doctor. Did you really think that you could stop me? No wait, don't answer that. Just to make sure you wont try to stop me, cause you know that would ruin the fun, let's think up a way to give you a handicap. Hmmm...let me think. Well if I had Lazarus's technology in my screwdriver, which I do, then what could I do? Oh, I know. Wait if only I had the Doctor's genetic code." the Master rambled on, miming hitting himself in the head, "Oh wait a sec. I do. I have his hand. So now that we have established that. Let's...oh I know, let's make you a hundred years older. Wouldn't that be fun?" he didn't wait for an answer. He pointed his laser screwdriver at the Doctor and pushed a button. The Doctor was immediately in pain and I knew it. I couldn't stop my tears anymore. When the Master had finished, the Doctor sat up but he was now old, it was as if he was the Doctor's grandfather. I knew the truth though. While the Master went on to address the nation the dark-skinned girl crouched next to the Doctor. He grabbed her hand and whispered something in her ear. I saw him give something to her and she stood up, a tear dropped down onto the floor. She looked around at some people I had missed before, I assumed they were her family by the way they all looked the same. She looked back down at the doctor and smiled. She then pushed something and disappeared. I knew the Doctor had sent her away, to hide or to do something I wouldn't know but I still felt an emotion I had given up on a long time ago. Hope.
