The Doctor's POV
The TARDIS continued to make distressed sounds as I exited. I left the TARDIS doors open as I entered Clara's sitting room. Missy, Jack and Jenny were no where to be seen. I walked into Clara's bedroom and looked around, the flat lights were all turned on. It was around 11pm. I looked out of the window, the moon's light caused the snow on the ground to glisten. I then turned around and looked at everything in Clara's room, from the three mirrors to the big bed. I reached for my phone in my pocket, I decided that I wanted to hear Clara's voice one more time... I called her phone and put it on speaker.
"Hi this is Clara Oswald, I'm probably on the tube or in outer space. Leave a message!" The tone beeped, I looked at my phone before turning it off and putting it back in my pocket, another tear threatening to leave my eye. I sat on the edge of the bed and opened the bedside table's drawer. There wasn't much in there. Only one item caught my eye, the book... 101 places to see. 101 places Clara probably never actually got to see. I opened the book and there lay the leaf. The leaf that started her life, if this leaf never existed then she would never have existed... I closed the book and put it back in the drawer. I pulled my phone out again, I brought up Clara's contact number. I stared at it for a few seconds before hitting delete on it, I erased the number from my mind as I put the phone back in my pocket.
"Clara..." I whispered to myself, voice cracking in the process as I lay on my back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling.
"Hey, Doc..." It was Jack.
"Hey, Jack..." I replied, softly. Still keeping my gaze on the ceiling.
"You want me to get you anything?" Jack asked.
I sighed, "J-just some water. My throat's starting to hurt a bit." He then left the room. After a few minutes Jack came back in with a glass of water in his hand, I sat up as he handed me the glass. I gulped it down in one.
"Are you alright, Doc?"Jack questioned.
I placed the glass on the bedside table and replied, "Yeah... I'm fine." I whispered. He then nodded and left the room. I then flipped over and buried my face in the pillow. How could I possibly tell Clara's dad that she's dead? A few days before Christmas...
Ashildr's POV
Rigsy and I stand, leaning against the wall staring upon Clara's dead body. She seems peaceful despite the circumstances. I know people scream when they face the Raven. I look over at Rigsy and I see a tear starting to form in his eye. I put a hand on his shoulder to comfort him in some way. I looked at the ground, my eyes caught the repair kit which the Doctor had previously thrown into the dirt. I would never forgive the Doctor for leaving me here, when I needed him most.
I crouched on the ground and picked it up. I stood up straight and observed the mechanism between my fingers. This is the piece of equipment that's ruined my life. Another thing to blame the Doctor for... my unwanted immortality. I walked over to Clara, slowly. I thought about how innocent she was to die like this.
I crouched down to Clara and sighed. If I was to do what I think I should do... then this would really help the Doctor. But after all he's done to me, I don't think I can.
I look back at Rigsy, he's been looking at me: Confused. I motion for him to come towards me. He walks slowly towards me and crouches down to my level. He's sees the repair kit in my hand,
"What is that?" Rigsy asked me in confusion.
"It's something that ruined my life." I glared at him. He gave me an even more confused look, "It's what made me immortal."
"How does it work?"
"You put it onto the person's forehead, it is then absorbed into them. It may or may not make them immortal." I explained.
"Does it work on..." He paused, "dead people?"
"That's how it worked on me." I told him. "But I'm not sure if it works on people who are alive..."
"Could you use it on her?" Rigsy asked, looking down at Clara, "Bring her back to life?"
"I COULD do that... It would make the Doctor a lot happier," Rigsy began to smile, "It would stop him from coming after me..." Silence. "But I can't forgive him for what he did. Leaving me here. Making me immortal. Making me forget about EVERYTHING that I has happened to me in the past. I have to look in my diaries to try to remember everything..." I trailed off. Rigsy stared at me.
"So you're not going to use it?" Rigsy asked, his smile dropping.
"That's not what I said. I AM going to use it..." I exclaimed, "Just not on her."
All of a sudden, I put the repair kit on Rigsy's forehead. It absorbed into him. I looked at him, his face full of shock, "Wh-what-"
"I needed a new companion myself anyways..." I said with a smirk. "If the Doctor truly wanted Clara alive. He would've done it himself. He wasted his opportunity. Now this is mine." Rigsy slowly closed his eyes and collapsed on the ground. I then called out, "Mr. Rump!" Rump emerged from the crowd of people who started to gather,
"Yes, Mayor Me?" He asked.
"Take Rigsy inside, will you? Put him in the spare room." I ordered.
Rump picked Rigsy up and took him into the house. I focused my gaze back on Clara as I stood up. A red-headed woman approached me, I don't recognise her, "Who are you? How did you find this place?" I questioned her.
"I'm looking for someone... He calls himself the Doctor." She explained. She seems unstable.
"How should I know?" I asked.
"You know him. I know you do..." She then looked down at Clara, "This must be the new companion he's been running about with." I nodded in response.
"What is your name?"
"That's not important. I have some unfinished business with the Doctor. He made me forget everything but now I know... Now I remember. The TARDIS, the Ood, the Daleks, Pompeii. Everything."
"You must have been important to him."
"Something like that." She replied. I just remembered that Clara is dead on the ground, and the whole street is gathered around us.
"Everybody! Go back to your homes! Try to forget what you saw here today. You've seen what happens when you face the Raven... don't make the same mistake." I demanded. Everyone dispersed, running to their homes. Rump then came out of the house, "Mr. Rump! Please take Clara inside and put her in a stasis pod..." He nodded before picking up Clara's lifeless body. I turn to the woman, "We can talk inside." I told her, "The Doctor left several minutes ago. Maybe he will come back one day... But it's very unlikely." She followed me inside, closing the door behind her.
"What is your name?" I asked.
"I said it wasn't important. I'm just looking for the Doctor."
I groaned in frustration, "If I tell you my name, will you tell me yours?"
"Perhaps." God, she is stubborn.
"I am Me."
"What? Excuse me? What was that again." She asked.
"Me."
"Yes, you! What is your name?!"
"Me!" I exclaimed.
"You are very confusing."
"My name is Me! Mayor Me!" I explained.
"Oh! You're Me! I understand now."
"Now. What is YOUR name?"
"Donna. Donna Noble, I traveled with the Doctor for quite some time. He erased my memory as I absorbed too much regeneration energy, he said it would've killed me. He said if I remembered it would end my life. But clearly he was wrong. I'm still alive and kicking." Donna replied. "What did you mean by 'face the Raven'?"
"It's a death sentence. If you break one of our rules you are sentenced to death."
"That's a bit drastic, isn't it?! I mean... what if I was to just hold a knife up in public. Would that lead to my death?!" She questioned.
"No! If you used it to cause bodily harm then yes... you would be sentenced to face the Raven. That's what killed Clara." I explained.
"Is that the girl. The Doctor's companion?" She asked.
"Yes. Clara Oswald." Donna looked over at the stasis pod which now contained Clara's body.
Donna asks, "What does this thing do?" She walked towards the stasis pod."As the Doctor would put it... a fancy refrigerator for the dead. It preserves their body." I then walked over to the screen which showed Clara's analysis, her medical data.
I read what was on the screen and I was shocked. Donna walked over to me and looked too, "Well looks like this person was preggers!" She exclaimed. I pressed a few buttons, this revealed who the father was. The screen read:
Father: Anonymous
