Chapter 7: Light in the Darkness
The girl in the dark was afraid, or at least she thought she was. She could feel nothing anymore, the light was leaving her.
There was someone calling the name, the name that seemed so familiar, but so distant. Oh so distant. It called again. Who was this, she was so afraid. She didn't know who was calling.
The light was leaving her, it was going. She was going, and she knew in some fiber in her soul that she was going, that she would just be a body soon. All that was left of her. She wasn't even aware of the darkness anymore. The darkness that was taking her soul, her hart, her mind.
She was slightly aware that she had been calling out to the voice, she stopped. She didn't know who this was. She was so afraid, scared out of her wits. Fear of what was going to happen if this thing was to find her.
Nothing else was making since. The dark was the only thing she knew, or felt like she was ever to know.
Thats when she saw it. A sparkling light. Hope for herself alone, and from that light came a voice. The same voice she had heard before, but now it wasn't frightening, it was calm and it was happy to see her.
She moved for the first time, staggered towards the light like she had never moved before. And as she did Juliet remembered, she saw her life, everything and the Doctor. The Doctor who had saved her from her school classes and taken her to the future. The Doctor who was here saving her now. The Doctor that that awful darkness was afraid of. He was here for her, and she was coming.
