A/N: Before you start hating me... Why would I kill Rose, in and Eleven & ROSE fiction. Come on. If you read my other one you should know I kill people a lot but the always come back. Sometimes... I have a feeling I'm connected to Steven Moffat through a psychic link or something...


"So the universe ended. You missed that, in 102 AD. I suppose this means you and I never get born at all. Twice, in my case. You would have laughed at that. Please laugh. The Doctor said the universe was huge and ridiculous, and sometimes there were miracles. I could do with a ridiculous miracle about now."

The Doctor zapped in front of Rory wearing a fez and carrying a mop.

"Rory! Listen, she's not dead. Well, she is dead, but it's not the end of the world. Well, it is the end of the world. Actually, it's the end of the universe. Oh, no. Hang on." He vanished.

"Doctor? Doctor!"

The Doctor came back without the mop. "You need to get me out of the Pandorica."

"But you're not in the Pandorica."

"Yes, I am. Well, I'm not now, but I was back then. Well, back now from your point of view, which is back then from my point of view. Time travel, you can't keep it straight in your head. It's easy to open from the outside. Just point and press." The Doctor gave Rory the sonic screwdriver. "Now go." He left again.

"Oh, and when you're done, leave my screwdriver in Rose's top pocket. Good luck." The Doctor left one last time.

"What do you mean? Done what?"


Rory walked down to the Pandorica chamber and almost tripped over something. He look down and saw Rose. He rolled her on her back. "How many people are dying?" Rory closed Rose's eyes and mouth and kissed her forehead. He stood and walked over to the Pandorica.

He pointed the sonic screwdriver at it and it opened. The Doctor was released.

"How did you do that?"

"You gave me this..." Rory held up the sonic.

The Doctor took his out of his pocket confused. "No I didn't."

"You did. Look at it."

The Doctor got out of the Pandorica and touched the two sonics together, they sparked.

"Temporal energy. Same screwdriver at different points in its own time stream. Which means it was me who gave it to you. Me from the future. I've got a future. That's nice." He noticed the blood on Rory's hands and the enemy's.

"These things are not."

"Long story, well... not really. But what are they?"

"History has collapsed. Whole races have been deleted from existence. These are just like after-images. Echoes. Fossils in time. The footprints of the never-were."

"Er, what does that mean?"

"Total event collapse. The universe literally never happened."

"Nothing. Eye of the storm, that's all. We're just the last light to go out." The Doctor looked around. "Rose. Where's Rose?"

Rory pointed to the ground by the entrance.

"Is this why you had the blood on your hands?"

"No! I swear I didn't do anything, I just noticed when I walked in."

The Doctor nodded and put his hand over his eyes and then moved it to his forehead showing that he was crying. "Do you know how she died? Again?"

Rory kneeled next to her body and took her hand off her stomach. "She has a shot wound in her stomach and her hand opened. She's an auton like the rest of us."

"I know she's an aut-... She was saying how she wanted to save me again. She was programmed to kill me...So she killed herself first."

"I'm sorry..." The Doctor nodded

"So, where's Amy?" Rory turned pale.

"I killed her."

"Oh, Rory..."

"What am I?"

"You're a Nestene duplicate. A lump of plastic with delusions of humanity."

"But I'm Rory now. Whatever was happening, it's stopped. I'm Rory."

"That's software talking."

"Can you help her? Is there anything you can do?"

"Yeah, probably, if I had the time."

"The time?"

"All of creation has just been wiped from the sky. Do you know how many lives now never happened? All the people who never lived? Your girlfriend isn't more important than the whole universe."

Rory punched the Doctor. "She is to me!"

"Welcome back, Rory Williams! Sorry. Had to be sure. Hell of a gun-arm you're packing there. Right, we need to get her downstairs. And take that look off your plastic face. You're getting married in the morning."

The Doctor placed Amy in the Pandorica.

"So you've got a plan, then?"

"Bit of a plan, yeah. Memories are more powerful than you think, and Amy Pond is not an ordinary girl. Grew up with a time crack in her wall. The universe pouring through her dreams every night. The Nestenes took a memory print of her and got a bit more than they bargained for, like you. Not just your face, but your heart and your soul. I'm leaving her a message so she knows what's going on when she wakes up." The Doctor sealed the Pandorica.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What are you doing?"

"I'm saving her. This box is the ultimate prison. You can't even escape by dying. It forces you to stay alive."

"But she's already dead."

"Well, she's mostly dead. The Pandorica can stasis-lock her that way. Now, all it needs is a scan of her living DNA and it'll restore her."

"Where's it going to get that?"

"In about two thousand years."

"She's going to be in that box for two thousand years?"

"Yeah, but we're taking a shortcut. Rose's vortex manipulator. Rubbish way to time travel, but the universe is tiny now. We'll be fine."

"So hang on. The future's still there, then. Our world."

"A version of it. Not quite the one you know. Earth alone in the sky. Let's go and have a look. You put your hand there. Don't worry. Should be safe."

"That's not what I'm worried about."

"She'll be fine. Nothing can get into this box."

"Well, you got in there."

"Well, there's only one of me. I counted."

"This box needs a guard. I killed the last one."

"No. Rory, no. Don't even think about it."

"She'll be all alone."

"She won't feel it."

"You bet she won't."

"Two thousand years, Rory. You won't even sleep. you'd be conscious every second. It would drive you mad."

"Will she be safer if I stay? Look me in the eye and tell me she wouldn't be safer."

"Rory, you"

"Answer me!"

"Yes. Obviously."

"Then how could I leave her?"

"Why do you have to be so human?"

"Because right now, I'm not."

"Listen to me. This is the last bit of advice you're going to get in a very long time. You're living plastic, but you're not immortal. I have no idea how long you'll last. And you're not indestructible. Stay away from heat and radio signals when they come along. You can't heal, or repair yourself. Any damage is permanent. So, for God's sake, however bored you get, stay out of-" The Doctor vanished in a spark and smoke. Rory put his helmet on and sat down. Rose's body shook and her eyes flew open.


"According to legend, wherever the Pandorica was taken, throughout its long history, the Centurion would be there, guarding it. He appears as an iconic image in the artwork of many cultures, and there are several documented accounts of his appearances, and his warnings to the many who attempted to open the box before its time. His last recorded appearance was during the London blitz in 1941. The warehouse where the Pandorica was stored was destroyed by incendiary bombs, but the box itself was found the next morning, a safe distance from the blaze. There are eyewitness accounts from the night of the fire of a figure in Roman dress, carrying the box from the flames. Since then, there have been no sightings of the Lone Centurion, and many have speculated that if he ever existed, he perished in the fires of that night, performing one last act of devotion to the box he had pledged to protect for nearly two thousand years."

"Rory. Oh, Rory."

"Exterminate!"

"What's that?"

"Exterminate!" The Doctor appeared.

"Trouble. Oh. Ah, two of you. Complicated."

"Exterminate! Weapons systems restoring."

"Come along, Ponds."

"Exterminate!"

They ran to the middle montage and the Doctor took a fez off a dummy.

"What are we doing?"

"Well, we are running into a dead end, where I'll have a brilliant plan, that basically involves not being in one."

"What's going on?"

"Get out of here. Go! Just run!"

"Drop the device!"

"It's not a weapon. Scan it. It's not a weapon, and you don't have the power to waste."

"Scans indicate intruder unarmed."

The man took off his hat and a woman appeared behind him. "Yeah, you think?" Rory shot the dalek with his hand.

"Vision impaired! Vision" The Dalek stopped.

"Amy!"

"Rory!" They ran to each other. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. It just happened."

"Oh, shut up." Amy and Rory started kissing and the woman walked behind the Doctor, never taking off her hat and hood.

"Yeah, shut up, because we've got to go. Come on."

"I waited. Two thousand years I waited for you."

"No, still shut up." They continued to kiss.

"And break. And breathe. Well, somebody didn't get out much for two thousand years."

Little Amelia pulled on the Doctor's jacket. "I'm thirsty. Can I get a drink?"

"Oh, it's all mouths today, isn't it."

"Well I would hope so. Haven't seen you in two thousand years Mr. Bow tie." The Doctor turned around at the familiar voice. He pushed the hood down and lifted the hat off her head. Rose's smiling face was shown in the white light of the Pandorica.

"You're alive?"

"Course I a-" Rose started to say before the Doctor pulled her into a hungry and passionate kiss. "Guess you missed me?" She whispered against his lips.

"Bit too much."

"Nice fez." Rose took it off his head and put it on her own. "Though, I think it looks better on me." She did her signature tongue through teeth smile. The Doctor laughed and put it back on his head.

"Cute." He said before kissing her again.

When they pulled away the Doctor continued saying what he was saying before Rose cut him off. He didn't mind that she cut him off considering he loved her. And he had to admit. She looked adorable in the fez.

"The light. The light from the Pandorica, it must have hit the Dalek."

The Dalek's weapon started moving. "Out! Out! Out!"

"So, two thousand years. How did you do? And you weren't in the Pandorica, how in the hell are you alive?!"

Rose shook her head smiling. "The light from the Pandorica when it was open the whole time."

"We just kept out of trouble."

"Oh. How?"

Rory looked at Rose who shrugged wondering what to do. "Unsuccessfully. The mop! That's how you looked all those years ago when you gave me the sonic."

"Ah. Well, no time to lose, then."

The Doctor zapped out of the room using Rose's vortex manipulator.

When he came back he put the mop through the door handles. "Oops, sorry."

He vanished again and Rose rolled her eyes. "Something tells me this drove you mad?"

Rory nodded.

"How can he do that? Is he magic?"

Rose laughed and looked at little Amy. "Something like that."

The Doctor came back. "Right, let's go then. Wait! Now I don't have the sonic. I just gave it Rory two thousand years ago." He left again.

"Oh my god, we're gonna be here all day!"

The Doctor came back again and Rose sighed out of relieve. "Right then." He walked over to her and retrieved the sonic out of her top pocket. He quickly kissed her and started walking away. "Off we go! No, hang on. How did you know to come here?"

Amelia showed him the post it note and brochure. "Ah, my handwriting. Okay." He threw them behind his back and grabbed two new ones and started writing on them. He used the vortex manipulator again.

He came back and handed Amelia the drink he stole from her earlier.

"There you go. Drink up."

"What is that? How are you doing that?"

"My vortex manipulator. Having fun there?" Rose asked teasingly.

"Yeah, Cheap and nasty time travel. Very bad for you. I'm trying to give it up."

"So... Where're we going?" Rose asked taking his hand.

"The roof!"

Just when they were about to head up the stairs a future Doctor appeared at the top. He fell and rolled down them with his clothes smoking.

Rose and the first Doctor ran to the future one and scanned him.

"Doctor, it's you. How can it be you?"

"Doctor, is that you."

"Yeah, it's him. Him from the future..." The future Doctor woke up and whispered into the present Doctor's ear. He then fell back again.

"Are you? I mean, is he, is he dead?"

"What? Dead? Yes, yes. Of course he's dead. Right, I've got twelve minutes. That's good." Rose and the Doctor stood.

"Twelve minutes to live? How is that good?"

"Oh, you can do loads in twelve minutes. Suck a mint, buy a sledge, have a fast bath. Come on, the roof."

"We can't leave you here dead."

"Oh, Rory, good. Are you in charge now? So tell me, what are we going to do about Amelia?" Rose asked suspiciously.

"Where did she go?"

"Amelia?"

"There is no Amelia. From now on, there never was. History is still collapsing."

"But how can I still be here if she's not?"

"You're an anomaly. We all are. We're all just hanging on at the eye of the storm. But the eye is closing, and if we don't do something fast, reality will never have happened. Today, just dying is a result. Now, come on!" Rose and him ran off.

Rory stuck around and covered the future Doctor with his security guard jacket.

"Move it! Come on!"


"What, it's morning already? How did that happen?"

" History is shrinking. Is anybody listening to him? The universe is collapsing. We don't have much time left." Rose shook her head disapprovingly.

The Doctor soniked satellite dish and took it off it's pole and handed it to Rose.

"What are you doing?"

"We're looking for the Tardis." The Doctor said looking back at Amy.

"But the Tardis exploded."

"Okay then, we're looking for an exploding Tardis."

"I don't understand. So, the Tardis blew up and took the universe with it. But why would it do that? How?"

"Good question for another day. The question for now is, total event collapse means that every star in the universe never happened. Not one single one of them ever shone. So, if all the stars that ever were are gone, then what is that?"

There was a large burning ball in the sky.

"Like I said, we're looking for an exploding Tardis."

"But that's the sun."

"Is it? Well, here's the noise that sun is making right now." The Doctor held Rose's arm and raised it up while soniking the satellite dish. The sound of the Tardis could be heard coming from the exploding fire ball.

"That's my Tardis burning up. That's what's been keeping the Earth warm."

"Guys, there's something else."

"There's a voice."

"I can't hear anything."

"I can." Rose said leaning into the Doctor.

"Trust the plastic!"

"Doctor, that's River. How can she be up there?"

"No, it's not. Of course, the emergency protocols. The Tardis has sealed off the control room and put her into a time loop to save her. She is right at the heart of the explosion."

The Doctor left the group and came back a few moment's later with River Song.

"Amy! The plastic Centurion, and the plastic girl?"

"It's okay, they're on our side."

"Really?"

"Yes. We are." Rose said sort of offended.

"I dated a Nestene duplicate once. Swappable head. It did keep things fresh. Right then, I have questions, but number one is this. What in the name of sanity have you got on your head?"

"It's a fez. I wear a fez now. Fez's are cool."

River and Amy looked at each other. Amy took the fez of the Doctor's head and threw it. River shot it in the sky.

"Guess you people don't like fez's...?"

A dalek rose from behind the wall.

"Exterminate!"

"Run, run! Move, move. Go!" Rose and the Doctor used the satellite dish as a shield while making their way back into the museum. "Rose go."

"I'm not leaving you! I promised myself never again."

"Doctor, Rose, come on."

"Shush. It's moving away, finding another way in. It needs to restore its power before it can attack again. Now, that means we've got exactly four and a half minutes before it's at lethal capacity."

"How do you know?"

"Because that's when it's due to kill me."

"Kill you? What do you mean, kill you?"

"Oh, shut up. Never mind. How can that Dalek even exist? It was erased from time and then it came back."

"How?"

"You said the light from the Pandorica."

"It's not a light, it's a restoration field. But never mind, call it a light. That light brought Amy and Rose back, restored them, but how could it bring back a Dalek when the Daleks have never existed?"

"Okay, tell us."

"When the Tardis blew up, it caused a total event collapse. A time explosion. And that explosion blasted every atom in every moment of the universe. Except"

"Except in the Pandorica."

"The perfect prison. And inside it, perfectly preserved, a few billion atoms of the universe as it was. In theory, you could extrapolate the whole universe from a single one of them, like, like cloning a body from a single cell. And we've got the bumper family pack."

"No, no. Too fast. I'm not getting it."

"The box contains a memory of the universe, and the light transmits the memory, and that's how we're going to do it."

"Do what?"

"Relight the fire. Reboot the universe. Come on!"

"Doctor, you're being completely ridiculous. The Pandorica partially restored one Dalek. If it can't even reboot a single life form properly, how's it going to reboot the whole of reality?"

"What if we give it a moment of infinite power? What if we can transmit the light from the Pandorica to every particle of space and time simultaneously?"

"Well, that would be lovely, dear, but we can't, because it's completely impossible."

"Ah no, you see, it's not. It's almost completely impossible. One spark is all we need." Rose explained.

"For what?"

"Big Bang Two! Now listen." The Dalek shot the Doctor and he fell into Rose's arms.

"Exterminate! Exterminate!"

"Get back. River, get back now!"

"Exterminate!"

Rory shot the Dalek and it powered down again.

"Doctor? Doctor, it's me, Rose. Can you hear me? What is it? What do you need?" The Doctor activated the vortex manipulator and left.

"Where did he go? Damn it, he could be anywhere." River shouted.

Rose looked up with tears in her eyes. "Downstairs...Twelve minutes ago." She said crying.

"Show me!"

"River, he died."

"Systems restoring. You will be exterminated."

"We've got to move. That thing's coming back to life."

"You go to the Doctor. I'll be right with you." River, Amy, and Rory left Rose alone with the Dalek.

"You will be exterminated!"

"Not yet. Your systems are still restoring, which means your shield density is compromised. One Alpha Mezon burst through your eyestalk would kill you stone dead."

"Records indicate you will show mercy. You are an associate of the Doctor's."

Rose took a gun out of the pocket of her jacket. "I'm Rose Tyler. Check your records again."

"Mercy."

"Say it again." She said switching the gun on.

"Mercy."

"One more time." She raised the gun.

"Mercy!"


"How could he have moved? He was dead. Doctor? Doctor!"

"But he was dead."

"Yeah? Who told you that?"

"The Doctor."

"Rule one, the Doctor lies." Rose said walking down the stairs.

"Where's the Dalek?"

"It died." Rose tossed the gun to River Song.


The Doctor was in the Pandorica.

"Doctor!"

"Why did he tell us he was dead?"

"We were a diversion. As long as the Dalek was chasing us, he could work down here."

"Doctor, what were you doing?" Rose asked putting her hand on his cheek. His eyes were closed but he leaned into her touch.

The light from the Tardis got brighter.

"What's happening?"

"Reality's collapsing. It's speeding up. Look at this room."

"Where'd everything go?"

"History's being erased. Time's running out. Doctor, what were you doing? Tell us." Rose begged.

"Big. Bang. Two..." He said weakly.

"The Big Bang. That's the beginning of the universe, right?"

"What, and Big Bang Two is the bang that brings us back? Is that what you mean?"

"Oh." River said.

"What?"

"The Tardis is still burning. It's exploding at every point in history. If you threw the Pandorica into the explosion, right into the heart of the fire." Rose explained.

"Then what?"

"Then let there be light. The light from the Pandorica would explode everywhere at once, just like he said."

"That would work? That would bring everything back?"

"Oh, hell yeah. A restoration field powered by an exploding Tardis, happening at every moment in history. Oh, that's brilliant. It might even work. He's wired the vortex manipulator to the rest of the box."

"Why?"

Rose kissed the Doctor's forehead and walked away letting River go talk to him. "So he can take it with him. He's going to fly the Pandorica into the heart of the explosion."


"Are you okay?"

"Are you?"

"No."

"Well, shut up then."

River came back and looked to Rose. "Rose, he wants to talk to you."

"So, what happens here? Big Bang Two? What happens to us?"

"We all wake up where we ought to be. None of this ever happens and we don't remember it."

"River, tell me he comes back, too."

"The Doctor will be the heart of the explosion."

"So?"

"So all the cracks in time will close, but he'll be on the wrong side, trapped in the never-space, the void between the worlds. All memory of him will be purged from the universe. He will never have been born. Now, please. He wants to talk to you before he goes."

Rose stood and hugged River before walking over to the Pandorica.


"Hey." Rose said giving the Doctor a small smile.

"Amy Pond. The girl who waited. But, Rose Tyler's the girl who's still waiting. Was it worth it?"

"Of course it was."

"Why?"

Rose walked closer to him and took his hand. "It was worth waiting because I got to see your face again. Well, one of them." The Doctor smiled.

"I don't deserve you." He said closing his eyes.

"I tell myself that same thing every time I'm with you."

"I love you, Rose Tyler..."

"Don't do this. Please?"

"When you leave... get Amy..."

Rose nodded and gave a watery smile. "I love you too, Time Lord." She kissed him lightly. "Not everyone dies, not all the time, not always. You can come back."

"Nothing ever stays the same. This isn't something you can rely on."

"I can to give myself hope." Rose kissed him again and whispered goodbye in his ear.


"Amy, he wants to see you."

She nodded and walked over to the Pandorica.


After several minutes the Pandorica closed.

"Back! Get back!"

The Pandorica took off and River got a message.

"What does it say?"

"Geronimo..."

Rose put her head in Rory's shoulder.


"Oh! Okay. I survived, then. Brilliant. I love it when I do that. Legs, yes. Bow tie, cool. I can buy a fez."

"Lyle beach. The beach is the best. Automatic sand." Rose giggled and sat on the jump seat.

"Automatic sand? What does that mean?"

"Automatic. Totally." He kissed Rose and continued to work on the console.

"Oh." The Doctor watched his previous adventure.

"Cleans up the lolly sticks all by itself."

"No, hang on. That's last week when we went to Space Florida. I'm rewinding. My, my time stream unraveling, erasing. Closing." The crack on the scanner closed and disappeared.

"Hello, universe. Goodbye, Doctor. Rose!" Rose turned and looked at where the voice came from. She looked confused and turned back to the Doctor. The flashback Doctor that is.


"Ah, three weeks ago, when she put the card in the window. Rose! I need to tell you something." Rose shot her head around and looked for the source of the voice. She once again found nothing and ran away. "She can hear me. But if she can hear me" There was a crack in the road.


"Good luck, everyone. Behave. Do not let the girls open their eyes. Amy, Rose, later. River, going to need your computer."

"Amy, you need to start trusting me. It's never been more important."

"But you don't always tell me the truth."

"If I always told you the truth, I wouldn't need you to trust me."

"Doctor, the crack in my wall. How can it be here?"

"I don't know yet but I'm working it out. Now, listen. Remember what I told you when you were seven?"

"What did you tell me?"

"No. No, that's not the point. You have to remember."

"Remember what? Doctor? Doctor?!"


The Doctor got sent back to a place he hasn't seen before. Judging by the mailbox

"Rose's house. The night she wandered back into the world. Hours before I even arrived." He walked into the house and saw her sleeping in her bed. He sat in the chair next to it. "It's funny. I thought if you could hear me, I could hang on somehow. Silly me. Silly old Doctor. When you wake up, you'll have your old life back, you won't be trapped here anymore, and you won't even remember me. Well, you'll remember me a little. I'll be a story in your head. But that's okay. We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know. It was the best. The daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I was always going to take it back. Oh, that box. Rose, you'll dream about that box. It'll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand new and ancient, and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would have had. Never had. In your dreams, they'll still be there. The Doctor and Rose Tyler, and the days that never came. The cracks are closing. But they can't close properly until I'm on the other side. I don't belong here any more. I think I'll skip the rest of the rewind. I hate repeats. Live well. Love Ricky. Bye bye, Tyler." The Doctor walked into the crack.

Rose shot up and opened her eyes. She looked at the pictured on her nightstand and all the ones of her and the Doctor turned into ones of just her. There was a bright light and she was asleep in her room in her London flat.


"Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, the father of the bride, Augustus Pond!"

"Sorry, everyone. I'll be another two minutes. I'm just reviewing certain aspects." Strangely Rose was sitting at a table with at Amy's wedding.

"Your father, Amelia, will be the absolute death of me. Unless, of course, I strike pre-emptively." Amy saw River walk by the window.

"Amy? You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Right. Er, you're crying."

"So I am. Why am I doing that?"

"Because you're happy, probably. Happy Mrs Rory. Happy, happy, happy."

"No, I'm sad. I'm really, really sad."

"Great."

"Why am I sad? What's that?"

"Oh, er, someone left it for you. A woman."

"But what is it?"

"A book."

It was River's journal.

"It's blank."

"It's a present."

"But why?"

"Well, you know the old saying. The old wedding thing. Huh? Amy, what? Hey."

"Ready now. Sorry about that. Last minute adjustments to certain aspects. Now then, it hardly seems a year since"

Amy saw a guest wearing a bow tie and another wearing braces. She then noticed Rose looking lost.

"At the age of six and announced that the new head teacher wasn't real because she looked like a cartoon."

"Shut up, Dad!"

"Amy?"

"Amelia?"

"Sorry, but shut up, please. There's someone missing. Someone important. Someone so, so important."

"Amy, what's wrong?"

"Sorry. Sorry, everyone. But when I was a kid, I had an imaginary friend. Two actually. But she came back, Rose Tyler." Everyone looked at Rose and she sunk down in her seat.

"Oh no, not this again."

"The other, the raggedy Doctor. My raggedy Doctor. But he wasn't imaginary, he was real."

"The psychiatrists we sent her to."

"I remember you. I remember! I brought the others back, I can bring you home, too. Raggedy man, I remember you, and you are late for my wedding!"

The glasses shook gently.

"I found you. I found you in words, like you knew I would. That's why you told me the story the brand new, ancient blue box." A strong wind blew the balloons around.

"Oh, clever. Very clever."

"Amy, what is it?"

"Something old. Something new. Something borrowed. Something blue."

The Tardis materialized in the middle of the room.

"It's the Doctor. How did we forget the Doctor? I was plastic. Rose was the stripper at my stag. Long story." Rose heard him and rolled her eyes.

Amy knocked on the doors. "Okay, Doctor. Did I surprise you this time?"

The Doctor opened the door wearing a top hat. "Er, yeah. Completely astonished. Never expected that. How lucky I happened to be wearing this old thing. Hello, everyone. I'm Amy's imaginary friend. But I came anyway."

"You absolutely, definitely may kiss the bride." The Doctor put his finger on Amy's lips.

"Amelia, from now on I shall be leaving the kissing duties to the brand new Mister Pond."

"No, I'm not Mister Pond. That's not how it works."

Rose came out from behind the Tardis. "Yes, it is." She said smiling.

Rory nodded. "Yeah, it is."

"Right then, everyone. I'll move my box. You're going to need the space. I only came for the dancing."


The Doctor, Amy and Rose were dancing, course the Doctor was dancing horribly. Like a baby giraffe.

"You're terrible!"

Rose giggled. "That is embarrassing!"


Later the Doctor was dancing with little kids while the other three were sitting at a table.

"That's it. That's good. Keep it loose."


After, a slow song was playing. Amy and Rory were dancing, and so were the Doctor and Rose.

"You look beautiful." The Doctor told her.

"Thank you, but today's all about Amy and Rory. Two thousand years. The boy who waited."

"You waited two thousand years too. What do we call you if Amy's the girl who waited?"

"I thought I was the girl who's still waiting?"

"Eh, I don't know. We have each other again. What's to wait for?"

Rose smiled at him. "Everything. We've got a long journey ahead of us."

"Yeah. A long journey." The Doctor smiled back and kissed her softly. Rose put her head on his shoulder as they continued to dance.

"I love you." She whispered.

He smiled and kissed her shoulder. "I love you too, Rose Tyler"


"Oi! Where are you off to? We haven't even had a snog in the shrubbery yet."

"Amy!"

"Shut up. It's my wedding."

"Our wedding."

"Sorry, you two. Shouldn't have slipped away. Bit busy, you know?"

Amy smirked at Rose. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" The Doctor looked at Amy wondering why she was looking at Rose like that.

"Oh, no no no! Amy! No!" Amy started laughing.

"You just saved the whole of space and time? Take the evening off. Maybe a bit of tomorrow."

"Space and time isn't safe yet. The Tardis exploded for a reason. Something drew the Tardis to this particular date, and blew it up. Why? And why now?"

The phone started ringing.

"The Silence, whatever it is, is still out there, and I have to. Excuse me a moment." He answered the phone.

"Hello? Oh, hello. I'm sorry, this is a very bad line. No, no, no, but that's not possible. She was sealed into the seventh Obelisk. I was at the prayer meeting. Well, no, I get that it's important. An Egyptian goddess loose on the Orient Express, in space. Give us a mo." He paused and looked to Amy and Rory "Sorry, something's come up. This will have to be goodbye."

"Yeah, I think it's goodbye. Do you think it's goodbye?"

"Definitely goodbye."

Amy went to the door and shouted to Leadworth. "Goodbye!" She looked at the house and whispered "Goodbye."

"Don't worry about a thing, your Majesty. We're on our way."
