I sat and rubbed my temples, oblivious to the peculiar looks I was getting. I saw the scene before me unfold.

A man stood on a beach that I recognised from my parallel twins mind, his eyes brimming with tears. He stood by a girl with short blonde hair. I rubbed my temples as the pain that came with staring for too long kicked in. The man spoke, his accent thoroughly British.

" Rose Tyler, I..." he then promptly disappeared. The girl began to cry, and my parallel twin began to wade out further into the sea, apparently no longer interested.

'Oi! Twin! Pay attention!'

'Hmm? What is it?'

'Come on! What was that?'

'That? I don't know. You're the one with the answers'

'Not all of them?'

'But you recognise him?'

'You know me too well'

'Who is he then!'

'I... don't know his name, or hers, but they've been around town a few times, on random occasions,'

'How can she be around town if she's here?'

'Like I know!'

'Wish I did'

'Don't we both. Sorry, Jenni, but I have to go. I have a bit of a headache'

'That's fine. But look out for either of them. I'll speak to the girl as long as she's in this universe'

I stood up, coming back to reality with a jolt. The people around me had melted back into the crowd. I thought of the man I had seen, and wondered how he had possibly got there. You couldn't normally go to a parallel universe unaided - unless he wasn't. Unless something took him there for an allotted amount of time. I then remembered Mickey Smith. He was so oblivious to the other two's love. I had seen them running around together, disappearing in his blue box and only visiting home every once in a while. I began to walk back home, thinking over what to do. I couldn't tell Mickey, he'd think I was mad. I couldn't tell her family for the same reason. The girl... I knew her somehow... Rose Tyler, that's it. I sat down on the bus and squeezed my eyes shut, sending all the information on her to my parallel twin.

" Jennifer? Is that you? You've grown so much! " I concentrated on the person in front of me, smiling as I made contact with the parallel universe.

Doctor

I pressed my forehead to the TARDIS door. No..no. No.

" No! " I yelled. " This can't happen! I need to talk to her again, to tell her.." my voice broke on the words. " To tell her I love her" I finished softly. I ran to the console, flipping levers and locking the TARDIS onto Rose's consciousness.

" Take me to her, to anything to do with her. Come on.. Come on.. " I grabbed the screen and stared intently at the Gallifreyan symbols. A picture flickered into view. Her, standing , crying on the beach I left her. The grainy picture flickered, then turned into another one. A girl with waist length blonde hair and clear green eyes sat on the kerb of a place I had visited often. Rose's town. I leaned my head on the warm screen, feeling salty tears trickle down my cheeks, accidentally pushing a button. Sound came out.

" I dunno what to do... I feel like I should tell someone about Rose, but no one would listen... I need to find that strange man with the floppy hair she kept running off with.." I straightened up, staring at this strange girl who talked about my Rose. She began to mutter.

"Rose standing on the beach, him trying to tell her something... What could it have been? I need to contact her again.." I stared in disbelief. She knew about that, but was in the other world to Rose and at the same time as Rose. She was not anything other than human, so what could it be? My best bet was to find her. But I didn't think I could lock onto anyone else. I pulled a couple of levers and landed in that well practised place in the back alley. I locked the door and took one last look at the TARDIS before walking off.

I sat on the bench, unnoticed by anyone. I watched the children play in the park, absentmindedly fiddling with a Rubix cube. I picked up on a conversation taking place beside me.

" Have you seen that girl, Jennifer?"

" Yeah, she must be completely mad or something. She keeps talking to herself, sitting down on the pavement and looking but not seeing. "

" Really? Who are her parents? "

" It's no use going to them. Her mum's dead and her dad is never there. He is always working. She spends all her time wandering around, or at school. She's a bright kid as well, only twelve."

" Poor girl.. Imagine having to deal with madness alone."

I stood up, searching for this girl that I suspected was not mad, but something else. I couldn't see her here, so put my hands in my pockets and walked off.

Jennifer's P.O.V

I had seen him around the town all this week since I had seen Rose through my parallel twin, Jenni. Every time that I tried to approach him though, he always walked away. Whether it was on purpose, I didn't know, but it was really frustrating!

It was frustrating for both of us.

I guess that I should explain a bit more about me and Jenni.

Well, I'm Jennifer and I live in this universe. She's Jenni and she lives in a parallel one. We look almost exactly alike, but her hair was shorter than mine. We were both pale, like we had never seen the sun, and had clear green eyes along with blonde hair that had brown streaks running through it. The only difference between us was that she found it easier to keep her hair cropped to chin length, considering where she lived.

I would tell you more about that, but it is her story to tell, not mine. My story was currently walking along a high street, wanting to get away from people and have some peace and quiet. It, and by that I mean me, turned off to a little deserted alleyway. I found comfort in the emptiness of it. However this time I was not alone. I could see him in the shadows, and saw his funny box that he flew away in. The box I had grown up seeing appear on occasion around town. I addressed the shadows.

" You are the Doctor, and I know all that is worth knowing about you. "

Doctor

I stepped out of the shadow, glancing around us.

" I'd ask you to prove it, however we'd better take this somewhere no-one can overhear us. " she stood speechless. I unlocked the TARDIS and waited for her to come along with me.

" Come on then! What're you waiting for?" she stepped inside with me. She sat down, looking rather uncomfortable.

" There's something I must explain before I tell you all. I have a..telepathic link with this other girl, my parallel twin in a parallel universe. We can share thoughts and memories. " I nodded. Seemed plausible. It would work with what the townsfolk said about her as well. She continued.

" Last week this girl who used to live here before you took her away, Rose, turned up there. My twin was in the sea at this point. She saw you then appear and try to tell her something. My twin then went to talk to Rose, and you were all she could talk about. She told my twin, Jenni, about how the two of you run around the universe, saving planets and things. She said how you are a time lord from Gallifrey and you can regenerate, thus changing your body. This here is your 10th regeneration. You take companions around time and space, and this here is your TARDIS, which stands for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space. Your last companion before Rose.. You ever talk about her but Rose can see it makes you sad. " she produced a piece of paper from her pocket. It was Rose, laughing and me from afar. They were uncannily accurate. " That is Rose. And apparently you should be able to create a link with me to see I am right." I was gobsmacked. She knew all about me. However, if what she said about telepathy was true, then it would make sense. I ushered her out, telling her that I would speak to her in a bit. I needed time to wrap my head around this. I looked down at the beautiful drawing of Rose, one that captured her true beauty as she laughed. The beauty that made me love her for her strange purity. She was pure in the sense that she was beautiful without trying, pretty when she was at her scruffiest. I began to pace, tracing my thoughts out loud.

" If I can talk to Rose through these two girls, Jennifer and Jenni, then I could tell her what I meant to on the beach. Once the link is strong enough, maybe, just maybe I can bring the two worlds together for a second, just enough to bring her to me. I need to get her back. She was willing, once, to never see her mother again to always be with me. I know it's selfish but... I want her with me now. I want her here, forever roaming time and space. Maybe, if I'm careful we can die together so I will never have to live with her death. Yes. That would be perfect. Jennifer?" I opened the door on the last word. " Come back in. I've got some questions to ask you. "
