Remember Me?
Romana survived the Time War and escaped with The Doctor and escaped with him, The Rani and Braxiatel. (Doctor/Romana) (Braxiatel/Rani) Fem!Luke (Lucy, The Shooter) (Shooter/Jack). This will start around Born Again and move onwards.
Born Again
The Doctor leaned towards the console and twisted a few dials.
"Hold on, 6pm, Tuesday, October, 5006, on the way to Barcelona." Said The Doctor as he looked over at Rose, Romana, Rani and Braxiatel, "So how do I look?"
Romana was about to reply when The Doctor stopped her, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't tell me," Said the Doctor as he looked down at himself," let's see. Two legs, two arms, two hands...slight weakness in the dorsal tubercle." The Doctor ran his hand through his hair, "Hair! I'm not bald! Ooh, big hair...Sideburns! I've got sideburns! Really bad skin. Bit thinner," the Doctor patted his abdomen before looking at the other four occupants of the TARDIS and started to address them "that's weird, give me time, I'll get used to it...I have got a mole. I can feel it…, love the mole." the Doctor trailed off before look back over at them.
"Well, what do you think?" Asked the Doctor looking around them awaiting their response, which Rose responded first by saying "Who are you?"
"I'm the Doctor" He Replied with a look of confusion on his face.
"No, no, where is he? Where's the Doctor? What have you done to him?" Said Rose her voice rising.
"You saw me, I, I Changed, right in front of you." Sad the Doctor as he turned to the other Gallifreyians for help with his predicament.
"I saw him sort of explode and then you replaced him like a teleport or a, err, transmat or a body swap or something." Said Rose from the pillar she was standing behind before she walked towards him and pushed him in the chest saying "You're not fooling me, I've seen all sorts of things, Nano-genes, Gelth, Slitheen."
The Doctor rock on his heels gently as he assimilated what Rose was saying and began to wonder if she really was this dim, before raising his eyebrows at the Slitheen comment, giving her a Seriously look.
"Oh my god, are you Slitheen?" Asked Rose as she slowly backed away from The Doctor.
The Doctor took a deep breath and said "I'm not a Slitheen." Shaking his head.
"Send him back, I'm warning you send the Doctor back right now!" Rose shouted.
"Rose it's me, honestly it's me, I was dying so I changed my body, every single cell but it's still me, guys tell her." Sad the Doctor.
"Rose it is him, though he may be a bit different n some aspects but it is him, I know because when I married him we gained a telepathic connection to each other and Time Lords can read each other's minds when our barriers are down, if it wasn't him we would have started to interrogate him by now." Sad Romana trying to assure Rose but the young human didn't seem to be convinced.
"But you can't be…" Whispered Rose as she looked back at the Doctor with a look of disbelief on her face as she stopped walking backwards.
"Then how would I remember this," Said the Doctor, walking forward towards Rose, "The very first word I ever said to you, trapped in that cellar, surrounded by shop window dummies, ooh such a long time ago, I took your hand and said one word, just one word I said – Run."
Rose look him in the eye and Said "Doctor?" Causing the Doctor to Smile, reminding Romana of his fourth life.
"Oh my god." Said Rose as she backed away.
"Hello," Said the Doctor before running around the console, "And we never stopped did we? All across the Universe, running, running, running and that one time we had to hop remember hopping for our lives, yeah, all that hopping, remember hopping for your life? Yeah, hop?" Said the Doctor hopping on one foot until he saw Rose's face and stopped looking at her concerned.
"Can you change back?" Asked Rose quietly.
"It doesn't work like that dearie." Said the Rani as she move from her place sitting on one of the pillars.
"Do you want me to?" Asked the Doctor as he look at Rose.
"Yeah." Said Rose nodding.
"Oh…" Said the Doctor looking up before looking at the others.
"Can you?" Prompted Rose waiting for an answer.
"No," Said the Doctor, "Do you want to leave?"
"Do you want me too?" Asked Rose.
"No, but your choice, if you wanna go home." Said the Doctor as he look at Rose who was standing where the Rani had been sitting before she moved.
When Rose didn't answer the Doctor turned to the console and said "Cancel Barcelona, change to London, the Powell Estate, uh, let's say 24th of December, consider it a Christmas present."
The TARDIS shuddered as she changed course from the 51st century to the 21st century.
"We goin' home?" Asked Rose as she look at the Time Lord standing by the Console.
"It's up to you, Back to your mum. It's all waiting. Fish and chips, sausage and mash, beans on toast... No, Christmas - Turkey! Although, having met your mother, nutloaf would be more appropriate." Said the Doctor, muttering the last part causing Romana to hit his arm.
The corners of Rose's mouth twitched upwards which the Doctor noticed.
"Is that a smile?" Asked the Doctor looking at Rose.
"No." Replied Rose a bit too quickly.
"That was a smile." Said the Doctor Smirking.
"No it wasn't." Protested Rose.
"You smiled." Said the Doctor in a haunty manner that reminded Braxiatel of the Doctor when he was Lord President to the Time Lords During all six of his terms no matter how short some of the were.
"No I didn't." Said Rose firmly.
"Oh come on all I did was change I didn't- Graaaha!" Groaned the Doctor causing the others to turn and look at him with a mixture of shock on their faces.
"Doctor, are you alright, do we need to take you to the Zero Room?" Asked Braxiatel.
"What?" Asked Rose, the Doctor was about to respond but was cut off by a cross between a growl and a moan came out of his mouth causing him to hunch forward in pain.
"Uh-oh, not good." Said the Doctor walking backwards.
"Are you alright?" Asked Rose stepping forward.
The Doctor didn't answer as a golden coloured mist came from his mouth and floated away.
"What's that?" Asked Rose looking at the Doctor.
"The change is going a bit wrong- Gaaaahhhh!" Yelled the Doctor.
"Doctor we need to get you to the Zero Room." Said the Rani as she walked over to him, gesturing Romana to do the same.
"Can't I've deleted it." Said the Doctor as he suddenly lurched forward.
"Look maybe we should go back, let's go find Captain Jack he'd know what to do." Said Rose
"Nah, he's busy, got plenty to do rebuilding the earth rebuilding the Earth." Said the Doctor until he caught sight of a switch.
'He'd never let me touch that switch so what's he doing?' thought Romana watching the Doctor.
"Oh, I haven't used this one for years." Said the Doctor as he flicked it causing the entire Room to shake as the TARDIS picked up speed making everyone fall over some hitting parts of the console.
"What are you doing?" Asked Rose as she looked over at the Doctor, shocked.
"Putting on a bit of speed," Yelled the Doctor turning and twisting some knobs and dials, "Oh my beautiful ship, come on faster, atta girl!"
The Doctor looked at Rose and Romana.
"What do you think, wanna go faster, want to break the time limit?" Yelled the Doctor from the other side of the console.
"Stop it!" Screamed Rose as the Doctor put on more speed.
"Oh don't be so dull! Let's have a bit of fun! Let's rip through that vortex!" Yelled the Doctor before his attitude did a 180 turn and said "Regeneration's gong wrong, I can't control it for much longer."
"Ah my head." The Doctor grimaced and doubled over before shooting back up again and yelling "Faster! Let's open those engines!"
The Doctor began laughing as a ringing sound started echoing around the console room.
"Doctor, whatever you are doing stop it because if you don't I will blood kill you and make sure you stay dead, Lord President or not!" Screamed the Rani, as she clung to a railing to prevent herself from falling over.
"What's going on?" Yelled Rose as the Doctor came near her.
"We're crash landing!" Laughed the Doctor before running over to the other side of the console.
"Well do something!" Screamed Rose clinging to the console, while Romana chased her husband around the console to see what he was doing.
"Too late, out of control!" Yelled the Doctor before laughing again flipping a few levers.
"You're gonna kill us!" Yelled Rose panicking.
"Hold on tight, here we go!" Yelled the Doctor looking at Rose, "Christmas Eve."
The TARDIS shook while the Doctor laughed and Braxiatel made the silent vow to punch the Doctor when he was sane again.
