Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey… Stuff and Things.
Prologue: Weep.
"Never dare to hope for something, your hopes will just be extinguished like a dying candle." –Siera Luedke.
"Doctor! I can't 'old on any longer! I always sucked at starin' contests!" Rose yelled over her at the doctor, never breaking eye contact with the once sorrowful angelic face- now contorted in a face Rose imagined belonged to demons rather than angels- that had her rammed into the corner of the kitchen. Its stone face was frozen mid-snarl, with its fangs barred and hands raised- ready to strike Rose next time she batted an eye. Rose's eyes began to water as the lights began to flicker in the small cottage she rented with the Doctor- well, he officially went by John Smith (not very original but it was the only thing the Doctor could think of other than Doctorio Lordique- but Rose would rather have this stone evil eat her than to walk around with Doctor going by Doctorio.) They'd decided that the former time-traveler human/Time Lord Meta-crisis shouldn't live alone in an alternate world filled with mortgages and bills- it was a life. One they shared. He had been so antsy the past 7 months since time ended on Bad Wolf Bay. It was weird to imagine there was another Doctor- her Doctor- out there in another world living the same old life in the Tardis, while-
"Hold on, Rose! Don't Blink! Don't-" He froze mid-sentence as the light flickered and the angel inched closer- its demented face mere centimeters away from Rose's.
"I didn't! The lights Doctor! I can't control my sight if the lights KEEP FLICKERIN'!" Rose's voice took on a tone of sheer panic- raising a few octaves above her normally calm voice.
"I know, I know, think. Think. Think!" He pointed his sonic screwdriver at the lights in their kitchen and the dull lights shone with a new vibrancy.
"Okay. Okay, these creatures feed off of energy of the 'would-bes' and 'could have beens'. They are supposed to be extinct! Gone from this world- oh." The Doctor's face turned to Rose in realization.
"Oh? Oh what? Can you stop it Doctor?" Rose felt hope fluttering in her stomach. He was the Doctor- he could do anything. Though, part of Rose still felt weary of deeming him as such. How could the Doctor be the Doctor if the Doctor was off some where in another realm? The enigma gave Rose a headache to think about.
"Doctor. Doctor, I can't! My eyes are waterin'. I have to blink!" Rose refrained from blinking for a few more moments.
"Rose, no, DON'T! Don-" The Doctor's voice was cut off by a piercing silence and a white hot light emitted from where Rose was in the corner. Rose's outline could be seen in the light- fiery strands of light emitted from her chest and now-open eyes. She looked like the Bad Wolf. The Doctor tried to reach for her but was thrust back by a unseen force.
"ROSE!"
"Doctor!" The companions' yelling each other's names was the last things that could be heard before the light faded- along with Rose. The Doctor fell to the floor of the small kitchen- lost. He felt like he was reliving the nightmare at Canary Wharf- Rose once again torn from his grasp. A million questions, fears, and sorrows ran through the former Time Lord's mind. He didn't even have to comfort of the TARDIS this time. He held firmly onto the TARDIS coral in his hand- praying to whatever god was listening for Rose's return and knowing it wasn't going to happen. It never did.
Author's Note: Hello fellow Whovians! This is an idea that I have been tossing around in my mind for a while now. Im a huge fan of Doctor Who and The Walking Dead. So I figured: what better to do in my free time than write a scenario where the two brilliant shows collide?
I ship Rose/The Doctor with the force of a thousand splendid suns (That's a wonderful book! My Advanced Placement Literature class read it a few weeks ago, it's a wonderful look into the life of the women of Afghanistan.) Sorry I got a bit side tracked there. Anyways, this story is going to follow Rose as she is tossed into the apocalyptic world of The Walking Dead. She will enter the world around the beginning of Season 2 of The Walking Dead. Spoilers for Both Walking Dead (Maybe all Seasons) and Doctor Who (Seasons 2-4)!
Hope you enjoyed! Or at least didn't completely hate it! This is just a short introduction and small explanation as the 'how' Rose managed to enter such a devasted world.
T.T.F.N- Ta-ta for now!
Xoxoxo,
