And so he stood and watched. He watched as the fire engulfed the planet. Emotionless. Fire reflecting in his cold blank eyes. The silent cries of mercy rang throughout the galaxy. Still he watched. He watched as every single last thing on the planet burned. And it was not the first time. He had seen this too many times. He'd watched. Every time. And every time he stood and watched he knew. He knew it would always be him. It would always be him that had to watch. He was the one who had hear the cries. This was his punishment. He knew it. So he watched. He listened. Never did he flinch. Never did he say a word. And to everyone else, he was the hero. But they were wrong. For one day, he would watch them. He would watch them fall. He would see the hurt look of betrayal, the tear streaked faces. But he would stand. He would watch. And he would listen, he would listen to their cries of revenge. He would listen to the pleas. And long after they were gone he would still hear them.

For this was the price. The price he had to pay.

This was the curse of the Time Lords.

So he stood and watched.
