Chapter 9:

An unknown place is never a good place to be when waking up, the same way not remembering what happened before you fell asleep is never a good thing. Rose's heartbeat went faster in an initial moment of panic as she woke up. She wanted to scream, to scream for the Doctor. And that was when she remembered. The moment she thought about the Doctor she remembered what had happened. She wasn't with the Doctor, like she had been every other time she'd woke up in a strange place, she had lost him. She realised her eyes were still shut, so she couldn't tell if she was still in Bella's house or not. Slowly, nervously she opened them. She looked around without moving, this definitely wasn't Bella's lounge. So where was she?

'Rose?' she was glad to here Jacob's voice. It was a reassurance that she was safe. Jacob would always look after her. She stopped and thought about that. That wasn't right. The way she had thought that, made her realise how she had come to depend on Jacob's friendship. After losing the Doctor, she never spoke to anyone about anything that really matter, but with Jacob she spoke about everything. She started wondering if that was such a good thing. She didn't want to use Jacob the way Bella had when Edward left her, because she wasn't like Bella. Was she? Would it be such a bad thing if she was? In this sense, yes, it would. She didn't want to use Jacob in any way, his friendship was just so important to her. She wasn't using him, though, the friendship was important to him too, she was something for him to talk to as much as he was someone for her to talk to.

Her head hurt. It was the sort of mental pain from thinking too deeply. She wished she could stop thinking about everything.

'Rose?' It wasn't Jacob's voice this time. It wasn't Billy, Edward, or Bella. Rose still didn't move. She was tired, she just wanted to sleep. She wanted to sleep so she didn't have to think about anything, so her headache would go away. 'Rose, I'm Carlisle Cullen' The person who spoke crouched down in front of the couch she was laid on. Carlisle Cullen? Where had she heard that name before? She thought about the things Jacob had told her and it clicked. Dr Carlisle Cullen was a Vampire, Edward's foster father. Logic told her she must be at the Cullens' house. How had she got here? 'Do you remember what happened, Rose?'

That was a good question. What did she remember? 'Edward asked me about the Bad Wolf' she managed to croak out.

'That's right' said Carlisle. Something about him reminded Rose about her Doctor. She couldn't think what it was. 'You fainted a few minutes after, Edward brought you straight here. You've been unconscious for about 20 minutes' As he continued to speak she realised what it was, it was very simple, stupidly simple, he was a Doctor. He was nothing like her Doctor in any other way, but he was a Doctor, wearing a long coat. 'Rose, can you tell us what about the Bad Wolf?'

Rose sighed inside, outside they didn't see any movement, no change in her expression. Lying and hiding were two things Rose had been surprisingly good at since losing the Doctor, so they didn't know that the Bad Wolf was on the list of the things she didn't want to talk about. She didn't want to talk about anything that related to the Doctor. She didn't want to talk about anything. She was tired. But she slowly sat up anyway. Jacob jumped onto the couch beside her as soon as she was sat up.

'Never do that again' he told her 'I was worried sick'

She couldn't help but smile 'Sorry' she said. She turned to Carlisle and took a deep breath. She was just about to begin when Jacob interrupted.

'Oh, I told them about the Doctor, so you don't need to tell them everything' he said.

Rose was gratefull of this. She avoided eye-contact with everyone, and started 'The Doctor landed in the year 200100, and there were these aliens, the Daleks there' there was no emotion in her voice, no feeling, nothing, she might as well have been talking about someone else's life. It was the only way she could talk about it though, because this was the first time she lost the Doctor. 'he sent me home because he wanted to keep me safe. He knew the chance of the us getting out there alive was slim, so he sent me home before it was too late. I couldn't accept that though. I couldn't just leave him there to die. With the help of my Mum, and friend Mickey' she had a pang of guilt as she thought about Mickey 'I forced my way into the TARDIS. The center of the ship opened, and I looked into it,the heart of the TARDIS, the entire Time Vortex, I looked into it and it looked into me.' Rose paused, only for a moment, to stop herself from getting too upset talking about this 'The TARDIS saw what I wanted, and took me back to the Doctor. Once I got back to him, with the power from the TARDIS, I became the Bad Wolf and destroyed all the Daleks there.' She was still confused about this next bit. 'Alice's vision can't be right, though, the Bad Wolf is gone, the Doctor drew all of that power out of me and gave it back to the TARDIS' She left out the bit about the kiss, and the Doctor having to regenerate. That was too personal, and it had nothing to do with this.

'I have a suggestion' said Edward. 'Jacob told us that the Doctor and Rose travelled in time in that other universe. He told us that Rose had told him that time was relative. Is it possible that Alice's vision wasn't of the future, but was in fact, of the past. Of this time Rose just told us about.'

As Edward said this it made sense to Rose. Time was indeed relative, so could that mess with Alice's power? It seemed logical.

'It's possible' replied Carlisle.

A small girl, with black hair came into the room, looking less sure. Rose rightly assumed this was Alice Cullen. 'I...don't know' she said distantly. 'Edward could be right, I guess'

'It seems logical' said Carlisle. 'Rose told us that the Doctor took the power of the Bad Wolf out of her. Time most likely just got muddled up in your vision'

Looking at Alice, Rose could see she still wasn't convinced. Rose thought about it, and some of the dreams she had had. The ones she hadn't told Jacob about. She had just once dreamt about a dark-skinned girl called Martha entering the TARDIS for 'one-trip'. At the time she had thought it was just a dream. But now she was unsure. Now she was started to wonder if the Bad Wolf was still a part of her, and through that if she was still connected to the TARDIS in some way. She didn't know and she wouldn't allow herself to get her hopes up for what was highly unlikely.
