10 years later; Touchwood, Pete's world.

I blinked, my eyes adjusting to the bright light. Another failed attempt. I get off the bed and walk to Mickey, pity evident in his eyes. He's married to Martha for about nine years now now, they got married a year after the Doctor left. I sighed, ten years without the Doctor and without ageing.

He hugged me, Mickey did, before walking out defeated. He knows how badly I want to return to my Doctor, he's trying to help, but we're failing. He knows what tomorrow is, he knows I'm going to Bad Wolf Bay. He's not coming with me though, no one is, because everyone moved on, everyone aged, except me. No one even remembers the Cyber Men, except me, they've all forgotten 'bout them...'bout 'im.

I close my eyes for a second,clearing my head before setting off to my house. I don't call it home, never have, never will. The TARDIS is my home, my sister, and always will be. I arrived at the flat earlier then usual, but it doesn't really matter, I failed again. Swiftly, I enter my abode and close the door behind me. As I get ready for bed all I can think is, 'I'm coming soon, Doctor, just wait a couple more days' as if he can hear me, but I know he can't. It's impossible. A smile crawls to my face, tugging at my lips as I enter a state of nostalgia, thinking of all the time the Doctor told me nothing is impossible...yet this is. My smile drops and I get into bed, missing the sound of the TARDIS engines that sang me to sleep once upon a time.

Next day; DÃ¥rlig Ulv Stranden, Pete's world.

I'm here again, the spot where he left me, where he died, where I made my promise... Bad Wolf Bay. My bay. I smile at the ground, as I sit on the sand. " It's been another year, Doctor, doesn't time just fly? I remember when we used to fly among time, I guess I won't be doing that for a while. I hope your safe, now that I can't save you. You know you saved me. I don't mean from those Autons that day in the shop, or Cassandra , or the Daleks. You saved me from something so... much worse. You saved me from my life at Powell Estate. You're probably stroking the TARDIS, wondering how my life is word than a fleet of Daleks." I giggled at the thought of the Doctor stroking our TARDIS. Is it still 'our' or is it just his now? I couldn't help but wonder. " I'll tell you how though... Without you I would have never seen the stars, never met those amazing aliens, never have seen dad, never saved the world, never knew the meaning of fear, love and life... I would have never fallen for you and that single THOUGHT is a thousand million billion trillion times worse then facing a fleet of Daleks who hate their own existence. Doctor, I miss you and I promise I'll be with you soon." I whispered the last part, tears streaming down my face. " and you TARDIS, you better take good care of him while I'm gone, old girl, because you and I both know that if there's something in any universe he loves, it's you." I smiled, wiped my face and jumped to my feet. As I looked into the horizon, my thought wondered those to those of the gleaming home waiting there somewhere, on the other side of the void...home.

I blew out a breath and turned on my heel, about to walk back to my car when I heard a song, not just any song. The same song i heard when I looked into the heart of the TARDIS. I gasped and looked around for the beautiful, bigger-on-the-inside machine, but it was no where to be seen. Suddenly, just as I was about to take my first step away a golden powder encircled me, just like the one form when the Doctor regenerated. It entered my eyes and darkness took over.

I blinked, sad from the memory of my dream. All of a sudden, I felt cold and reached for my blanket. Instead of my hand feeling a soft, Cotten sheet, I felt cold glass under my hand. Wait... Glass?! I quickly sat up and my eyes gazed on the most fabulous sight ever, the TARDIS except it looked different. I got to my feet and walked round the control console. "I'm home...When I said I'll be home soon, I didn't think it'll be so soon". I smiled.

Suddenly the door to the TARDIS burst open and an exited, strange man stepped in. "Ok TARDIS," he began, " I've fixed the timey-wimey stuff, let's head off to ... I don't know- Rose?!" And then it clicked.

"Doctor, you've regenerated!".
