Chapter Six; Crime and Jane's Demeanor

Rose ran over to her husband and son as they started walking back down the beach towards her with Shadow walking merrily beside them. She threw her arms around her son and embraced him tightly. "Oh my God," she began as she grabbed ahold of his face and kissed his cheek. "Don't scare me like that!" she exclaimed.

"I'm sorry Mum." He said as The Doctor stopped and looked at her.

"Peter and I just finished having a nice little chat and I think he knows what is expected of him." He told her.

"Good, now that we have that settled we'll just let the matter drop and get on with your training." She said as he started walking back towards the TARDIS.

"Rose you should probably get dressed before somebody figures out who you are and where you're from." The Doctor told her.

"Yeah I know, just hold on a second." She told him as she raced towards the shoreline and slipped her shoes off before wading them inside the water. She closed her eyes and just took it in of how cool the water felt and the warm sunshine felt against her skin while her hair blew inside the breeze. As she opened her eyes she felt The Doctor take her hand and she quickly turned her head to look at him.

"How is it that you always seem to look more beautiful every time I see you?" he questioned. "If I live to be a thousand more years I'll never understand that." He said as he smiled at her warmly.

"You got me." She answered as she smiled back at him and then suddenly she realized where she was. "Doctor, do you know where we are?" she asked him.

"Heaven?" he answered back with a shrug as she simply just giggled at him.

"No silly! This is Bad Wolf Bay." She told him.

"What?" he asked her.

"Oh yeah that's right I never told you." She began. "A long time ago I had a dream about this place. Or a nightmare rather. I dreamed that there was this big black hole and we got separated forever. This is the place where we said goodbye." She explained.

"That's never going to happen Rose Tyler." He began as he picked her up and held her inside his arms. "Now that I got you I'm never going to let you go." He said as he laid a deep and passionate kiss on her lips in which she returned.

"Hey Peter, what happened to Mum and Dad?" Jane asked him as he walked towards her. He stopped and looked back over his shoulder. "They're back there making out." He answered.

"Eww! That's gross! Kissing I mean. I can't believe that they can do that kind of stuff." Cassie said as Peter simply just grinned at her.

"Well if they didn't we wouldn't be here." He pointed out to her.

About thirty minutes later their parents finally strolled back down over to them hand in hand.

"For a second there I thought you were going to bring back another baby with you." Peter said teasingly.

"Oh no, we haven't had one for several years, we're done." His father assured him. "I'm done with the nappy days thank you very much." He said.

"I dunno, what if we have grandkids someday?" Rose questioned him.

"That's a whole different story." He began. "It's like renting a movie, if you don't like it you get to send it back." He said as Rose smacked him upside the head. "What?" he questioned with a half chuckle. "It's true." He told her with a grin.

"When are we going to put on our pirate costumes?" Cassie asked him eagerly.

"Right now. We've got a lot to do ahead of us and so little time." He answered as he bent down and called Shadow over to him. "Alright come mere boy, you too." He said as the dog trotted over to him wagging his tail and The Doctor slid his collar over his head and replaced it with a blue bandana. "That's a good boy." He began with a pat and the dog licked his face. "Now you'll blend in around her and look more like a pirate dog." He said as Peter and Rose went inside the TARDIS to change.

"Daddy Jane's gone." Cassie said as The Doctor suddenly stood up and looked back over at her.

"What do you mean she's gone?" he asked her but his answer was suddenly realized when Jane called out to him.

"Wow look at me! You can see everything from up here!" she exclaimed as The Doctor turned to look as his daughter stood upon a bolder out in the ocean with the rushing waves crashing against it and his face grew pale and panic stricken.

"JANE!" he yelled on the top of his lungs. "Get down from there right now!" he shouted.

"Why?" she asked him as she turned to look back at him. "This is fun!" she exclaimed as she raised her arms and closed her eyes as she started leaning back into the wind before she fell into the water.

"JANE!" The Doctor yelled again as he ran straight towards the ocean just as she had been coming back up to the surface and gasping for air. She started to cough as she moved her arms and kicked her legs trying to keep her head above water but failing miserably. Just then suddenly Shadow barked and ran towards the shoreline before leaping into the water and starting to dogpaddle out to her.

"Doctor?" Rose began as she came back out of the TARDIS.

"What's going on?" Peter questioned as he stepped out after her.

"Jane fell in, look." Cassie said as she pointed out to the ocean.

Rose gave a loud gasp and covered her mouth with her hands as she saw Shadow frantically swimming out towards her daughter before she caught hold of his bandana and he started swimming back to shore with her. "Oh my God." Rose said in a horrified whisper. "Jane!" she exclaimed before she ran over to The Doctor just as Shadow had pulled their daughter to safety. He ran out of the water and started to shake himself as Jane continued to cough and sneeze inside her hand before walking through the shallow water back to them.

"Jane!" Her father cried as he bent down and wrapped his arms around her tightly and kissed the top of her head before breaking the embrace and grabbing ahold of her cheeks. "I thought I told you to get down from there, you could have been killed." He told her as he looked her deeply in the eyes. "If it wasn't for Shadow I could have lost you just because you were too stupid enough to listen to me." He told her.

"I'm sorry Daddy!" she sobbed as streams of tears started flowing down her cheeks.

"Look I only tell you these things because I love you." He began as he wiped them away with his thumb. "And I don't want anything to happen to you. And I just want you to know that no matter what you do I'll always love you no matter how angry I get." He told her. "Do you understand?" he asked her as she nodded.

"Yes Daddy." She said with a sniff before wiping her nose on the back of her hand.

"Good, when we get on the ship I want you to think about that while you sit alone by yourself in your cabin for ten minutes." He told her. "Understand me?" he questioned as she nodded again.

"Yes Daddy." She answered with another sniff and a wipe of her nose.

"Alright come here and give me a hug." He told her as he opened up his arms and allowed her to run inside them before he embraced her tightly and kissed the top of her head as she let out another sneeze inside her fist.
