Escape and Love
Rose sat in her room and waited. she couldn't help but think of her conversation with The Doctor last night. "So, why do you hate Cam?". She asked him flatly. 'If I want a straight answer I need to have a straight question'. He just looked at her for a second. "Don't know what you mean". Was all he said as he looked down at his food. 'Earth food could really be...bland sometimes'. He tried to think of anything but Cam. "When I walked in with him, you gave him a death glare. Then you go ahead and grab me away from him like I was yours or somethin. To top it all off, you wouldn't even look at him when we were talking about things". She couldn't be too loud since they were in the mess hall. "Look, Your Mum...". "Has nothing to do with this". She had cut him off and his answer for all her observations as well. 'Blast'. He couldn't think of anything else so he had to think on his feet. He opened his mouth to speak and Jack popped in a seat next to The Doctor. "So, what were we talking about". He asked as he shoved food into his mouth. "Nothing". Was The Doctor's answer. Rose, on the other hand used it to her advantage. "We were talking about The Doctor pulling me from Cam and hating him". She looked at him even though she was filling in Jack. "Well yeah, we both hate him". She looked to Jack with wonder and The Doctor with a look of 'Shut Up'. "Rose, he's been mackin on you since we landed here. It's obvious, he likes you but, we know a lot about you and what's better for you. He just wants to but in to save you and look like a hero in your eyes. He knows he has a lot to live up to with us around". He shoved more food into his mouth and then saw a pretty woman and went off to talk to her. "See you guys in a bit". Was all he said as he picked up his tray and left the two alone in silence. Rose looked to The Doctor. "Were, were you...jealous?". She asked him while looking at her food. "Yes". She was surprised at the answer and the honesty of it. "Why?". She wanted know all she could now, cause later, he wouldn't talk about it again. "I was worried you would stay here, with him. You seemed so keen on him". He was looking down at his food and playing with it. She put her hand on his. "I would never leave you. I...I love you". When he looked up at her he could see some tears falling down her face. "I love you too Rose, I don't wanna loose you". They held hands on the table and looked at each other. He wiped the tears from her face. When Rose went back to the present she wiped a few tears from her own face...She was so happy, she was in love and The Doctor loved her back.
The Guard came to the door. The Officer at the door looked at him. "I'm here to get the prisoner for transfer". He told the Officer at the door. He nodded his understanding and swiped a card through the scanner and typed in a code. He opened the door for him, the guard walked into an empty room. He looked around but, no one was there. Rose popped out from behind the door and hit him on the head with the lamp.
She ran out from behind and looked at the Officer by the door. He nodded to her and pointed which way to go. "Lieutenant Mitchell's waiting for you". She smiled to him and he smiled back. She ran off down the hall towards Cam. She turned the corner and ran into another Guard from that bald's guy agency. "Hey!". He realized who she was and tried to grab her. Cam turned and saw him going for Rose. He ran to her and grabbed him from behind and knocked him out. "We gotta hurry now". They ran to the Embarkation room. Once she was through the doors and Cam was in the control room she unlocked the TARDIS door and ran inside. She looked at the paper he gave her with all the directions of what to do.
Teal'c made his way into the Embarkation room and nodded to Cam. He was to guard Rose as the others were off helping the others to escape. He stood on the ramp inside as Rose was hitting buttons, switches, levers and bells. She seemed like somehow she knew what she was doing. Cam, Daniel and Sam met up near the Doctor's and Jack's room. Thankfully they were close to each other not like Rose's room that was on another floor. Once they were each released they snuck around the base till they were close to the Embarkation room. They heard alarms blaring and an announcement saying an 'Unauthorized Gate Activation'. Cam, Sam and Daniel knew what it meant. They all ran faster and the door was open and a blue hue lit up the room. They ran in and saw Teal'c on the floor with a gun shot wound to the shoulder. He was in pain but, trying to get up. Daniel ran to his side and helped him to lay back down. The Doctor saw the Simmons holding onto Rose. "Rose!". He yelled as he ran up the ramp. Simmons pulled out his gun from behind Rose and shot. Rose felt the gun move from behind her and saw it being pointed at the Doctor. Then she heard a loud BANG!!. Then she saw the bullet rip through the Doctor's abdomen.
Once she saw it happen she couldn't believe it at first until he dropped to the ramp and put his hand by the wound. Once both saw the blood the Doctor felt weak and Rose screamed. "NO!!! DOCTOR!!!". Simmons held onto her as she tried to get away to help him. He pressed the hot gun to her back and pulled her closer to the gate horizon. She was crying and felt weak and almost dropped to her knees. Simmons held onto her and picked her up a little. He finally pulled her through and she couldn't see the Doctor anymore.
Once Rose was gone and the Gate closed Jack ran into the room to the Doctor's side. "Doc, Come on Doc". He put pressure on the wound. "Get the Med team...Now!". Jack yelled to anyone and everyone. Daniel ran to a phone and dialed an extension to the infirmary. "We need a med team here Stat!". He practically yelled into the phone and said as fast as possible too. The Doctor was half conscious. "Rose...Save Rose...Rose". He lost consciousness with her on his mind. Jack kept pressure on the would till the med team came and took him into the infirmary and then into an operating room to stop the bleeding, remove the bullet and ultimately to save his life.
Once they were through to the other side the horizon vanished and he let go of her as they both were flung out of the gate at a fast speed. Rose laid on her back crying, thinking about the Doctor laying there. He was in pain and losing a lot of blood. She couldn't even touch him one last time or even speak to him. She didn't even know if she'd see him again. She wanted to go back, she wanted to get back to him but, she crawled over to the device and looked at the buttons. It was as confusing as when she was standing infront of the TARDIS controls when Jack and the Doctor were hurt. Then she thought they would die but, they lived. 'There's still hope for the Doctor know as there was before'. Her thoughts were interrupted as Simmons grabbed her from behind. She screamed a little and tried to get away and fight. He held her tightly and pulled her from the gate and started walking towards a large field.
