The Apple Doesn't Fall Far From the Tree
Katie Maysin, Mother
He's dying. She's going to die soon. Shame, really. So young, such a bright future. He'd change it, but it's a fixed point. There's nothing he can do.
He finds her on the hotel roof, blue eyes focusing on the city below and not on him. Iggy leans against her, but her hands remain in her pockets. "I'm going to die soon, aren't I?"
The question hangs in the air like a hangman's noose. There's no running from it. He has to answer. "Yes."
Katie nods. She's changed a lot from the last time he saw her. Her blonde locks have been cut into a pixie cut. Her eyes have softened a bit. She's gained some weight, but not enough to stand out. The real difference is the wedding ring on her left hand. It's a simple gold ring, no jewel, probably some cheesy love quote engraved on it. He steps closer, Amber tailing behind him.
"Shilo and Rachel, will they be ok?" It's the question every mother asks herself. She doesn't fear death, but she does fear fate. Her children would suffer, somewhat at least, but in the end would be great people.
"Not quite, but they'll make it." The Doctor says, because telling the whole truth hurts too much. Shilo would suffer a lot. She'd eventually become the next 006, her mother's position. Rachel wouldn't suffer much. There would be a time when she'll be managing part of Q Branch in a wheelchair, but she'd rise to become the next M, her husband the Quartermaster.
Katie nods in understanding before wrapping him into a hug. "Take care of them, Doc. Keep 'em safe."
The next week, she comes home with a fatal gunshot to the head and the Doctor watches the grave lower into the casket before walking away. He's got a new face, and Amber has a new form. It's time to visit someone who needs guidance.
A/N-Hi Guys! I know, I know, I need to update "Darkest Just Before the Dawn". It is on a current hiatus till the inspration to write the next chapter comes back. In the meantime, I'll probably be writing stuff for "Castle", "Firefly", "Rise of the Guardians" and maybe even "James Bond". Dunno at the moment.
This is probably the best thing I've written. It came out a lot like how it did in my head, which makes me happy.
Please Read & Review. I need support and possibly some harsh critizism. Maybe a plot bunny'll pop up. Ok, Bye guys!
