Chapter 1
"So where are we off to now, Doctor?" Clara asked. The Doctor and Clara entered the TARDIS and he said, "I don't know. Where do you want to go?" Clara thought for a moment, but couldn't think of anything. Clara just responded, "Anywhere I guess. It doesn't matter where we go." The Doctor smiled as he lifted up the lever and the TARDIS started. Clara was happy as she was going on another adventure with the Doctor. Although, no matter where they go, they always get into trouble. Once they landed, Clara opened the door and saw a town. Clara looked up and saw that they were in London during the Olympics. She smiled at she stared out the TARDIS doors. The Doctor was taking he time because he was distracted with the TARDIS. He was trying to go somewhere else, not here.
Clara then noticed a a tall bloke with a blonde chick. The tall one looked vaguely familiar, but Clara couldn't put her finger on it. Clara kept her eyes on them, but she heard the girl yell, "Doctor!" That got the Doctor attention and he said, "Clara, what's wrong?" Something in Clara's head was telling her to shut the door as quickly as she could. Clara slammed the TARDIS' doors and said, "Doctor, take me somewhere else." The Doctor was surprised, but just did what he was told. He didn't know that Clara saw Rose, or that something in Clara's head was telling her to keep it from him. Clara left the control room without the Doctor noticing.
Clara took many turns just to get to the library. Man, did it take long, but it was worth the journey. Clara went through each section to find what she needed, but instead she was getting light headed and decided to take a break and just go home. "I need tea." Clara left the library and ended up in the control room with the Doctor. He asked, "Where did you go?" Clara responded, "I went to find something, but I'm not feeling well." The Doctor nodded and was about to grab his sonic when Clara said, "Don't scan me Doctor! I mean it!" He quickly stuffed the sonic into his pocket and replied, "Fine, it's best I take you home." The Doctor had taken Clara home and as she was about to wave goodbye, memories starting flashing through her head and before you knew it, Clara fainted.
"Rose. The name's Rose Tyler." "That was our first date." "Doctor? Doctor, are you there?" "You don't just give up. You don't just let things happen. You make a stand! You say no! You have the guts to do what's right, even when everyone else just runs away." "Your going to die. I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry." "Am I every going to see you again?" "I love you." "Rose Tyler I-." "Clara! Wake up, Clara!" Clara was on the floor off the TARDIS not responding to anything. She was still breathing, which is good, but she needs to wake up. The Doctor grabbed his sonic and scanned her trying to find out what was wrong with her, but the results showed nothing. The Doctor lifted her up and took her to the med bay. As he left her on a cot she stirred a bit, but she was still unconscious. "Clara is strong. Besides, she needs her rest. She'll be fine." The Doctor pulled up a chair and just waited to see his friend wake up.
"Hello? Doctor, are you there?" Clara Oswald was very confused and frustrated. That last thing she remembers was that she was leaving the TARDIS, but now she was on some beach. The part she didn't understand was she heard this woman saying many things. Clara even heard her name. "Her name was Rose." Clara looked around and found the blonde she saw earlier. Suddenly, the tall bloke appeared and Clara saw the blonde was tearing up. Clara started towards the blonde and when she got closer she heard, "Am I ever going to see you again?" "You can't." The blonde started to cry and said to the tall bloke, "I love you." Clara wanted to go and comfort the blonde because she saw she had a hard time trying to say I love you. Clara saying the blonde's tears increasing and the tall bloke said, "Quite right too. Might as well say it. Rose Tyler I-" The man faded away and the blond started to cry. Clara couldn't help it anymore and ran towards the blonde. What Clara didn't notice was that another blonde, who was older, was running towards her too.
Clara made it to the blonde and asked, "Are you okay?" The blonde looked up and hugged the older woman. Clara didn't understand what was happening. "Why can't she see me?" Clara then noticed she was in the TARDIS... sort of. Clara saw the man as a tear fell down he cheek. Clara finally knew where she was. Clara was in one of the Doctor's memories, but Clara never knew about Rose. Clara saw the Doctor's face and knew that his heart was truly broken. Clara said, "Oh, Doctor." Clara was in another memory, but this time it was the Doctor's current self. The Doctor was reading a page with his glasses on. Clara went over and say the page say, Afterword: By Amelia Williams. Clara saw the Doctor was upset again and as she turn expecting to see another memory, she saw Rose. Rose was looking at the Doctor, but then she saw Rose look at her. Rose put her finger on her mouth and she disappeared. Clara, then felt a pain and fell to the ground. She was waking up.
Clara's eyes fluttered open and she notice she was in the med bay. The Doctor said, "Clara?" Clara stood up and looked towards the Doctor, remembering the memories she just saw. Clara said, "Doctor, I need to know the truth. No secrets and no lies." The Doctor responded, "I don't like where this is going. What is it?" Clara looked at the Doctor sincerely and asked, "Are you okay, Doctor?" The Doctor replied, "I'm alright. A bit startled about you fainting like that, but I'm also curious about it. Although... wait, never mind. I'm fine." Clara looked at him and grabbed him by the shoulders and said, "I saw what happened to you in the past. I don't know why or how, but are you okay?" "You got memories that your aren't supposed to have. What did you see?" the Doctor asked." Clara yelled, "I asked, are you okay? Doctor, answer the bloody question, please." The Doctor still didn't answer. All he wanted to know was what Clara saw. She was his impossible girl, his friend, and his companion. All he wanted to know was what she saw because he had seen terrible things.
Clara was frustrated and didn't know what else to say. Clara said, "I saw you. I saw you in a park reading a page. It was called, Afterword: By Amelia Williams. I remember her. She was one of the people I met in my 'other life'." The Doctor sighed with relief, but also with sadness. He will always remember the Ponds. They will always be in his hearts. The Doctor responded, "That was the day I lost Amy and Rory... Amy left me something in a book she wrote. She was the girl who waited." Something flashed through Clara's head and they were two words. Two words that followed the Doctor, two words that were stuck in the universe, and Clara didn't know she said them out loud. The Doctor asked, "What did you say?" Clara replied, "Bad Wolf. I said Bad Wolf. Why?" The look on the Doctor's face was clear. He didn't want to talk about it, but then Clara pushed it. "Her name. Her name is stuck in my head, Doctor." The Doctor asked, "What was her name?" Clara responded clearly, "Her name. Her name was Rose. Rose Tyler." The Doctor looked at Clara with tears about to exit his eyes. "How do you know her name?"
