Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who
A/N: This one has a bit more torture, it isn't very graphic but a fair warning to anyone who is reading.
They were left alone for a couple of days, only Tish broke the outside barrier by bringing in food. Rose was still feeling worried but her spirits lifted as she talked to the Doctor while they both anxiously awaiting the Master's next arrival.
The Doctor, was bored and worried but keeping Rose distracted became his main job. He knew at some point the Master would come to see if Rose was pregnant, so far Rose showed no signs of being so but she was so earlier if she was that he may not notice. The Doctor just kept believing this meant his plan has worked. The Master appeared on that day.
He came waltzing in twirling a stick. "Here you go Rose, go pee on a stick." He said.
Rose raised her eyebrows at the Master. "How are you going to force me to do that?"
"Tsk, tsk Rose, so stubborn but I am not going to make you pee on a stick. Stupid human technology." He pulled out a small box with a screen on it, to Rose it looked like a tablet, he then tossed the stick on the ground.
The Master moved towards Rose who instinctively backed away. "Now, Rose I just need to scan you, be a good girl and stay still or I will have to tie you down."
The Doctor made a noise and the Master turned on his heel to face him. "I am disappointed in you Doctor, I assumed you would have tried to escape more or at least put up more of a fight. Oh well, I guess I am just the better Time Lord. Then again, I took all your toys that would help you." The Doctor's eyes flared.
"Now I know you have some plans Doctor, where is Martha Jones?" The Doctor just continued to glare at the Master. "Oh always so defiantly quiet, just so you know I am hunting her down, I will win this planet and then you can my toy." The Master then turned back to Rose.
"Rose, you haven't given me the Bad Wolf, you can make that up right now." The Master started towards Rose again and this time she stood still.
'I might as well let him scan me, I'd like to know if I am pregnant or not. Please be not.' Rose thought.
The Master was in front of her, he ran his machine over her stomach. After a few seconds he frowned. Rose didn't move fast enough as his hand met her cheek. He slapped her hard enough to knock her to the floor. The Doctor was immediately by her side, trying to shield her.
"Master, stop this. You don't have to hurt her."
The Master's eyes met the Doctors and flashed. Then a small smile came to his lips. "Oh Doctor, how did you do it? How did you make sure she didn't become pregnant? After all, you would rather she be pregnant with your child then mine anyway." The Doctor was confused by that last comment but pretended to be confused about it all.
"I did nothing." The Doctor lied.
"Liar!" The Master spat back. "I'll be back, I am going to go over some video of you two and see what you did. Then, once I do, I will be back to punish you and to try again with Rose." He left the room in a huff.
The Doctor turned to Rose who was holding her cheek. "Let me see," he said gently.
At first Rose shook her head, she didn't want him to see it. But at the Doctor's pestering she relented and moved her hand away from her face.
"Rassilon." The Doctor muttered. Rose still heard it.
"Does it look really bad? I mean it hurts but it must be bad for you to say that." Rose responded.
The Doctor moved his eyes from her cheek to meet her eyes, "Rose, he hit you so hard that you cheek is cut, your bleeding a bit." His eyes darkened.
Rose glanced down at her hand and saw some red on it, she hadn't noticed herself bleeding. She also didn't want the Doctor to get angry, she tried to lighten the mood. "Well at least I am not pregnant."
The Doctor grunted, "That's true, you tell your body good job." The Doctor sounded strained, like he was trying to sound happy but he wasn't.
Rose could tell he was trying hard to stay calm, that comment helped a little but not enough. Rose stood up and went and sat in the chair with her cheek to the wall. 'There, now he can't see it,' she thought. She took a deep breath and leaned against the wall, the cold felt good on her cheek.
The Doctor followed her to the chair. "Hiding it won't change how I feel Rose. I need to protect you from his wrath and from having his child, it seems I can do one but not the other." He kneeled next to Rose, "Please forgive me Rose?"
Rose was alarmed, she put her hand in his hair and tried to soothe him, "Doctor, this is not your fault, you are doing the best you can. You have brought my spirit around, just remember that you have to keep yours up to." The Doctor gave a small smile and snuggled up in her lap.
"Rose, we do not know what is going to happen when he comes back in here, please try not to antagonize him, let me carry the brunt of his so called 'punishment'."
Rose just nodded back, but she knew following through with that was going to be very hard for her.
They sat there for a bit until the door swung back open. The Master came into the room followed by four guards. 'Not good,' Rose thought, 'It's never good when he brings in the guards'. She glanced at the Doctor who gave her a quick look and then looked back at the Master.
"You!" The Master yelled, "You used the Bad Wolf. You will regret this, Rose will wish you had let her be, and the Bad Wolf will be too weak to stop it."
"Master, please, this is not Rose's fault, I am just trying to protect her. Beyond that, have some sense, this plan isn't going to work, you will kill her and the child you are trying to create. Try to have some reason. Let this wild fantasy go, we can go travel, I can leave on another planet, just please stop this." The Doctor pleaded.
The Master's eyes flashed, "I do not want your pathetic groveling to protect this planet and your lover over there. I want you to pay for ruining my plans. Tie them up."
This time Rose ended up in the chains and the Doctor was in the chair.
"Doctor, we will start with you, you caused this so therefore you get punished first and then you get to know what is coming for your precious companion." The Master sneered.
The Doctor proceeded to get whipped, slapped, and shot with the sonic laser. Every time he blacked out a bit he was brought back and hurt more. He tried to focus on Rose, his Rose. The women who meant everything to him. The women who saved him. Finally he blacked out and was not re-awoken.
