Flicker of Light

Disclaimer/ The BBC owns all the characters in this fic.

AN/ This is just a 200 word ficlet that wouldn't go away even when I refused to write it. Please forgive me, I forget the story but it's part two of it, 5th/Nyssa, the one where Omega is 'destroyed' and Tegan rejoins the Doctor and Nyssa. This is set just after the Doctor is 'executed' (but is actually camouflaged and entered into the matrix.) Nyssa's thoughts.

There was a flicker of light, an emission of smoke and he was gone. She blinked, her eyes suddenly filling with tears. Gone in front of her eyes, just vanished into thin air, leaving her there by herself, years out of her time, on a distant planet in a different galaxy than her own. She wanted to kick him, yell at him, scream at him for leaving her there. It was his fault. If she hadn't listened to him they might have gotten away, run to the TARDIS and escaped somehow. He would have figured out something; he always had in the past. But now he was gone. It didn't seem possible somehow. He was always the brave one, she was the one that needed rescuing in most cases, but it was he that was gone. She allowed one tear roll down her cheek before she held a finger up to stow the rest of the tears. She had to do something, had to get back to the TARDIS and figure out how to get him back. He couldn't have gone, he just couldn't have. She turned, glared at the grouping of Time Lords and ran from the room.

AN/ I realise that a large amount of ff writers and readers in this section are 9th/Rose orientated so I understand if you don't review, but for those that watch the old series at all or like this, please r&r! Also, if any of you know which story it is, tell me and you get a million billion Tim Tams. It's just before Snake Dance if that helps.
