A/N: I watched the Stolen Earth and when the Doctor began to regenerate, I had to think of a way to stop him. Suddenly this came into my head and demanded to be written. The Tenth Doctor must be saved!! Enjoy. Oneshot.
Impossible? No, just a bit unlikely!
"It's too late. I'm regenerating." The Doctor said and threw back his head and his arms out to the side. Light poured from his head and his hands and he began to change.
Jack held Rose away and she went limply with him, that was until she couldn't stand it anymore. She had to do something.
"No!" She yelled, tearing away from Jack's grasp and rushing to the Doctor's side. "I won't let you die again." She said, taking his face in her hands and bringing it down to hers. She kissed him with all her strength and all her might. She poured everything she had into that one kiss and through that kiss, she willed him to live and not to regenerate. Rose felt the energy flowing through her and she could feel it being 'earthed' into the TARDIS and she welcomed it. It was like the joint effort between Rose and the TARDIS taking the pain and the death from the Doctor and replacing it with life.
Slowly the light began to fall away from the Doctor's hands and his face and lastly it left his eyes. His long, familiar, brown hair flopped once more onto his forehead and his eyelids flickered closed as he drank in the energy that Rose and the TARDIS were giving him.
When Rose could no longer feel the energy passing through her, she pulled away and brought her eyes up to look into the Doctor's large, brown, puppy-dog eyes and saw the shock that lay in them.
"What did you do?" he asked softly looking down at his hands before looking back at her.
"What ever I had to." She replied in the same tone. "You're not going to do that to me just after I found you again. Understand?" She cautioned jokingly and prodded him lightly in the chest.
"Yes ma'am." He grinned and pulled her into a big hug, lifting her so her feet were no longer touching the ground. "But tell me Rose," he set her down gently, "How do you do it?"
"Dunno." Answered Rose truthfully, stroking the TARDIS console. "Just felt right." She looked up and dropped the subject. "Defenders of the Earth?" she held out a hand.
"Defenders of the Earth." The Doctor agreed and took her hand.
Beware Davros: The Oncoming Storm and the Big Bad Wolf are coming and nothing can stop them.
Impossible? No, just a bit unlikely!
