"I think ye lot are havin' twins," the nurse happily said to the young couple as they heard the two heart beats in the stomach of Mrs. Rose Tyler Smith. Rose smiled happily at her husband but when the 3D sonogram was done on the computer the nurse had a shocked look on her face. Dr. John Smith noticed this and looked to the nurse for answers.
"Anythin' wrong?" Doctor asked. Rose looked from the nurse to her husband, and then to the screen. Only one baby showed.
"I thought you said I was havin' twins?" Rose asked. The nurse shook her head and left. Doctor quickly went to the sonogram machine and moved the scanner around Rose's stomach. "John?"
"Rose, our baby has two hearts," Doctor said. Rose looked to him astonished while he had a happy face. "Our baby is Gallifyn." Rose smiled at him as she looked to the screen.
"Well, we better leave then because I don' wan' to have me baby tested on then," Rose said as she got up and with the help of the Doctor, her stomach was cleaned and they were walking away.
"We have to get you back to me, the other me," Doctor said. Rose looked to him sadly as she sat on the sofa in their small home.
"Why?" Rose questioned. "We can take of our baby ourselves." John walked to his wife and kneeled in front of her, grabbing both her hands in his own. Rose had tears going down her face, John sighed.
"Rose, my other self can teach our baby things that we can't, it must do what all us—I mean what all Gallifyn must do, travel and keep time and space in check," John told her as he quickly kissed her on the lips. "The baby is a miracle, we have no choice but to do what is right."
"John, we just made a life for ourselves here," Rose pleaded.
"Fine," John said, giving to his wife. "We will try to do best but when our child gets older we have to give it to my other self. Okay?" Rose nodded as she caressed her stomach. Rose and John had been married for a year and it has been two since they both has last seen the 'other'. It had taken awhile for Rose to get used to the human-half new Doctor but he indeed was like the other, just more human.
A week later John was driving to Torchwood, humming to himself. The rain was harsh but when wasn't it here in London. He had looked down a second when a blinding flash of light hit him at the side. The last thing he saw was a truck coming his way and one lonely tear went down his face.
"Rose I love you," John muttered to himself as blackness consumed him and nothing else existed. Doctor John Smith was dead leaving a wife and child to be born all alone.
"Doctor, are you alright?" the Doctor's new companion asked. Her name was Anna and just like Donna she only cared about traveling and not falling in love with the Doctor. The Doctor nodded, not wanting to worry Anna.
"I am alright," the Doctor said, he looked to the TARDIS who seemed to be shouting profanity that it had learned from Rose in his mind. The Doctor had the same daydream, of him dying but not only him, his human him in the parallel world.
"So, where we goin' next?" Anna questioned. The Doctor decided to go back, he had to see if his dream was real or not.
"How bout a parallel reality?" Doctor asked, smiling at the young woman. Anna just looked at him.
"I thought you said that wasn't possible," Anna told him. He shook his head.
"It is but to find the right hole into it, now that is the problem," Doctor answered. Anna nodded and looked to the picture of all the companions the Doctor had and she had a gut feeling why they were going.
"Your human self is in trouble, isn't he?" Anna questioned. The Doctor looked to her astonished.
"Why yes," the Doctor replied. "I have to check on Rose, and him." He paused for awhile before he said, "I think he is dead." Anna gasped and a sad look passed on her face. Anna knew the Doctor was still in love with Rose, he had kept talking about the blonde woman when she started to travel with him. She understood why the Doctor gave her a second chance but if his human self was dead, what had happened to the woman he had loved.
"Okay, then," Anna said smiling after awhile. "Alternate reality, here we go."
