Author's Note: I know it has been done a thousand times, but I wanted to give it a go. I have the first few chapters planned out and done. I will not be doing a word for word reading on each episode. Here is a season three with Rose story.

Her day had been hell, and she was looking forward to a good cup of tea. The kind only her mum could make. Her mum chattered insistently about something new she had just discovered as she puttered about the kitchen. It took all of her might to bite back a scathing comment. None of this was her mum's fault. In fact it was all her.

She was tired. It made her bones ache with a weariness that she could not shake. The steaming cup of tea that sat before her was a small comfort and one she found a little joy. Sometimes a little joy was enough, but most of the time it does not.

"When was the last time you truly slept?" Her mum's cockney accent brought her away from her misery.

"I don't know." She spoke honestly. "I do sleep some, but it never truly restful." The next words came out without her thinking, "I just miss home."

"I do too," She felt her eyebrows raise at her mum's statement. "Well, not the Estate, but our friends and family."

"No, not the Estate...home." When her mum continued to look blank she continued to explain, "The TARDIS."

"Oh," She heard her mum sigh out. "Rose."

Rose turned back to her tea, and thought about the words her and her mother had shared on the TARDIS. She's not Rose Tyler. Not anymore. She's not even human. Those were the words that shocked her to her core because they were turning out to be true. After the war she had tried everything to get back to where she knew she belonged. Eventually, she realized that all her travels had changed her or rather he had changed her.

The Doctor has taught her to be better than just the shopgirl that she was when she first met him, and along the way she found out that she always was. This was the turning point in her stay on Pete's world. It was those thoughts that had turned her to Torchwood.

The tea had gone cold, a layer of film coated the liquid surface, and she reached down to grab her shoulder bag. As her fingers grasped the nylon strap she felt something push her. Her body hit the ground...hard. She thought it was odd that her mum didn't rush to her side, but after a second Rose began to pull herself together.

She opened her eyes to see complete darkness. Then came the noise. There was a howling but no actual wind. She tried to scream, but even if she did she never heard it.

Rose had been truly scared a lot. When one travels with the Doctor one sees some amazing things, and one gets truly frightened. She had been terrified she was going to die on platform one. It was not her first adventure with the Doctor, but it was the first time she had been anywhere off Earth. Then she was frightened with the Gelth. They could have killed her and then used her body as a host.

Then came the Siltheen and the lone Dalek. It wasn't until she was on the Game Station for the second time that she realized even through all her terror she would follow the Doctor anywhere. Jack had told her only a few days before Satellite 5 that the Doctor would do anything to see her smile. She knew then that she loved him.

All the terror that she experienced that first year seemed like nothing to watching him die and turn into a complete stranger. She could handle just about anything, but she couldn't handle him not wanting her. Her fears and doubts about him leaving her before she got a chance to tell him all that she needed to say were put to rest when he held out his hand and smiled at her. Same Doctor, new face.

They continued to travel, laugh, cry, run, and save the universe. Werewolfs, Oods, and talking TVs couldn't tear them apart, but as they watched the 2012 Olympics they both could feel that something was coming. That something had actually torn them apart.

Now she stared into the darkness and thought of him. She thought of how when she first met him he grabbed her hand and told her to run. She thought about the grin he gave her after she asked him where they were going to next after defeating the Sycorax. Her mind latch on to the many times he tried to do endless repairs to the Tardis.

Rose didn't know how long she stayed suspended in the darkness with the endless howling ringing in her ears. They had thought Korp Tor had been hell, but this place seemed more fitting.

Suddenly, the howling seemed to increase. Her hands came up to her ears and she retreated further into her memories. Her mind latched on to the time she met Sarah Jane. She saw what her future was going to be. It was then that she realized that the Doctor didn't do goodbyes. But he did for her. He burnt up a sun to say goodbye.

Her body slammed into the cold metal of grating. She opened her eyes to see blurry light, and assumed she was back on the kitchen floor in her Dad's mansion. Her body hurt and the pain forced her to sink into unconsciousness.

In her unconsciousness she dreamed of the most beautiful song. She had heard that song twice before when she was awake. Once when she was being held captive by Blon, and another when she looked into the heart of the Tardis. After the first time when she dreamed she heard the song.

She let it lull her deeper into the world where she kept her promise of forever. She didn't care that she lay broken and bleeding. She didn't care that the cold grating she was laying on was the floor of the Tardis. She didn't care that if she wasn't discovered soon she would die. All she cared about was that in her dreams she was with him and they were running.
