Doesn't Remind of anything

Chapter Nine: A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes

Here is the first of the longer chapters and I still have two more exams to go! Go me! lol. Hope you enjoy! Thanks for your review Sepik


Rose recoiled in horror, he must be joking, she thought – he has to be! Rose stayed where she was, still staring at the Doctor. He frowned at her

'Do I know you?' he asked. He started at the blonde girl; she was very pretty he decided – sounded a bit common though. She had blood on her clothes and face, she looked as though she had recently been in a fight, something about her seemed very familiar to him but he couldn't put his finger on it. He looked around her and realised he was in a very large, strange looking room – two robots stood there staring at him. This was the moment that Rose felt her life implode.

'Er, Hi!' he said to all of them. He paused, trying to think of who he was, just everything was blank – his mind was pristine clean – he had no recollection of anyone or anything, it was as though he was a newborn baby. He really didn't know who he was or where he was, or why he was chained up.

'Doctor?' The blonde girl whispered in horror.

'You keep saying that, but I don't see any Doctors around here. Who are you?' he asked her. She bit her lip as though she were forcing back tears. She squeaked,

'I'm Rose', he smiled at the girl.

'That's a pretty name but… it doesn't remind me of anything' he quietly told her. 'I don't suppose you happen to know who I am?' he asked her. As soon as he said that the tears began to fall from her eyes, something deep inside of him twisted as though seeing this girl upset hurt him – but he didn't know who she was.

'You're the Doctor' she told him quietly. He frowned

'A Doctor? That's exciting, Doctor who?' he asked. Her eyes widened as he said this and more tears fell.

'It's just the Doctor' she told him, barely whispering.

'Oh, that's odd.' he reflected, he studied her face wondering why she was so emotional.

'Do we know each other?' he asked her. She closed her eyes as though she was trying to calm herself.

'Yeah, we… er…. we travelled together. We're friends, best friends' she said with a small smile. He grinned back at her

'Were we ever more than friends?' he asked. She blushed furiously when he said that and shook her head. Figures, he thought he didn't feel romantically attracted to this girl – but he did feel as though he cared deeply. He shook these thoughts off as they were confusing him; he then turned to look at the chains that held him

'Do you happen to know why I am chained up? Did I do something wrong?' he asked curiously.

'No, it's a… er… long story' Rose stumbled. One of the robots turned to look at him

'We seem to have a problem' he said to Rose. Rose turned towards this robot and glowered at him.

'The hell we do! Look what you've done to him!' she shouted, angrily wiping away her tears.

Crevasse stopped moving deep in thought, deciding if he could still use the Doctor in his current state. He needed his brain, his intellect and he didn't know if any of this still survived – he had needed to destroy the Doctors' power to protect himself but in doing that he may have also destroyed his brain. This was a delicate situation, he had always been unsure of the strength of the Tardis but he had never expected this to happen. Crevasse untied the Doctor knowing that he was no threat and knew he had to make a new plan. Stavishm stood in the background watching events unsure of how to proceed. The Doctor started to move towards Crevasse ready to make friends but Rose stepped in front of him, she took his hand and gently pulled him into the medical room. She sat him down on the bed and got out an ointment to put on the raw skin of where the chains had been. He watched her as she worked, with every moment she made and every word she spoke she became more and more familiar to him. Once she had bandaged him up she gently lent against the wall steadying herself. The Doctor looked up at her

'You're bleeding' he quietly told her, she glanced up at him, her hand going to her head.

'I know. I've been bleeding for a while' he looked around the room for a plaster to put on the cut on her forehead.

'What happened?' he asked her as he continued to search. She closed her eyes

'You really don't remember' she whispered to herself, she pulled herself out of her thoughts

'I had an accident' she told him, he looked at her to meet her gaze.

'What kind of an accident?' he prodded. She seemed to pause deciding how much to tell him.

'That robot out there' she began

'The burnt one?' he interrupted

'No, that's Stavishm – he's on our side. The other one, Crevasse, he is a… a bad robot. He is trying to hurt us and his friend kidnapped me' she explained trying to keep it simple. The Doctor nodded in contemplation

'You must be quite clever to escape kidnappers' he praised her, still absorbing everything she said. She looked up as him and smiled.

'No, not really. It was you – you saved me' she gently told him. He rubbed his face, everything she said sounded familiar, like something that happened lifetimes ago. He met her worried gaze still unsure of what was happening. He wanted to know more, but Rose had put her hand to her head and clutched at the wall. The Doctor walked up to her and helped her down onto the bed; he had found a box of plasters and got one out for her forehead. She closed her eyes as he gently put the plaster on her cut, he put his hand on the back of her head to feel where the other wound was. He brought his hand back out, red warm sticky blood covered his fingers – it felt so familiar, it brought memories back to him. His mind was white but he could see blurred images, Rose lying on the floor, blood on his fingers, he heard someone whisper 'I knew you'd come for me'. Tiny bits of his memory came flooding back to him but none of it made any sense. He wiped the blood of his fingers and found a towel to hold against her head, as he realised she had fallen asleep.

'Doctor?' he heard her whisper some time later. He sat there ignoring her until he remembered that he was a doctor – no – the Doctor. She opened her eyes and looked at him, he was holding her head.

'Doctor?' she called hopefully. Her optimistic eyes met his which stared blankly back. She felt her heart sink again. He continued to look at her, as though he were deciding whether to trust her.

'Is everything okay?' she asked. He broke his thoughts and looked at her again.

'Things, tiny bits are coming back to me. I can't remember them but it is like if you tell me then I remember – if that makes any sense' he tried to explain the jumble of his brain to her. She nodded in understanding.

'Where shall I start?' she asked, he looked around him and smiled

'Well you could start with where we are'

'We are in the Tardis, on the Planet Barcelona' she said thinking back. He nodded trying to remember. She lowered her voice,

'The robot out there' she said pointing towards the door 'he is the enemy. We has taken over… umm he's taken over our… our home' she said trying to put it delicately. 'We have to do something!'

'To him?' he asked perplexed, when she nodded vigorously he frowned at her, 'but why should I trust you? How do I know you're not the enemy?' Rose stepped back, obviously never have thought something like this could have happened. Whilst she had been sleeping the Doctor had been thinking deeply, trying to understand this world – this life – his life.

'Why would you say that?' she asked her voice cracking. He rubbed his head and turned to look at her,

'Do you not understand? I don't know who I am! I have lost myself, I am so confused and am just expected to believe the word of a girl?' he asked her, getting angry – not at her, but at himself for knowing so little.

'I am a women' she replied defendant 'not a girl'

'Fine, but how can I trust you? How do I know your not the villain, for all I know he's trying to help me but you dragged me off into another room to brain wash me into believe lies.' He couldn't understand the hurt his words brought to her, he couldn't understand how they ripped her heart out and tore her soul apart, it was all she could not to break down. He continued to watch her, so confused, it was the way she looked at him that confused him the most. It was as though she was looking to him for guidance, comfort – all the things that he knew he couldn't provide, and every time he looked away from her he couldn't understand the tears that fell from her eyes.

'Why would I want to hurt you?' her anguished whisper came, he turned to look at her his face staring at her in contemplation

'Why wouldn't you?' he asked her, she closed her eyes and he looked at her wrists as he approached her

'Look! Look at me' he said thrusting his wrists towards her showing the bruising; she slowly opened her eyes, her face cautious for she knew how dangerous he could be.

'How do I know you didn't do this? How do I know I'm not a criminal or a very dangerous man?' he exclaimed starting to shout at her

'You are a dangerous man' she whispered forgetting how sharp his hearing was. He was nearly upon her now

'Am I? Why?' he demanded to know, all he wanted to know was who he was. He backed Rose up against a wall and stood so close to her face that she could feel his hot breath on her face. She now knew how it felt to be one of those aliens facing his wrath. She swallowed quickly

'I meant powerful' she quickly told him. He looked into her eyes and saw the fear there, this enraged him. He raised his hands and put them on her shoulders pushing down hard

'Why are you scared of me!' he bellowed in her face, she closed her eyes as though she was gathering her strength.

'Because I don't know who you are anymore! I don't know if I can trust you!' he stared hardly at her for a while and then realised he was hurting her; he stepped back and started to pace the floor. He turned to look at her and shook his head

'There's something about you… something about you that just screws my mind up even more' she retaliated as though she had been slapped in the face. He gave her his dark and dangerous glare as he warned her

'Just stay away from me' he strode out of the room as Rose slowly sank to the floor with tears streaming down her cheeks. Stavishm entered and look at her, he could barley hear her choked whisper

'I'm frightened by what I see but somehow I know that there is much more to come' She dropped her head into her hands and let the storm of tears take hold of her body and her soul whilst all Stavishm could do was stand and watch.

Crevasse watched the Doctor as he looked at the Tardis control panel; he played with all the buttons and knobs as though he had never seen them before – like a child with a new play toy. Crevasse knew that there were two ways he could look at this situation: in a good way and in a bad way. He weighed up the positives and negatives of each situation. There was option one: to tell the Doctor the truth, that he could trust Rose, that he really was the bad guy, that he had chained him up taken over his home and destroyed him memory. Or there was option two: abuse the Doctors' innocence, gain his trust and exploit it, watch Rose and the Doctors' relationship be torn apart, and watch the poor young girls' life and mind be destroyed wearing her down to the bone until she can no longer take it. He stopped to think for a moment then smirked to himself, as if it was even a thought worthy choice – the answer was obvious. Option two was his immediate answer, he didn't care how evil or bad it made him for he had no emotions – he was a robot – designed to kill and over power. That is what he was going to do, he had control of the Tardis, he had demeaned the Doctor to the mind of a child, Rose was becoming weaker and weaker, and Stavishm was too afraid to stand up for himself. All he had to do was force them to make the Tardis fly for that was the only thing he didn't know if he could doby himself, he was going to use Rose to make the Doctor fly the Tardis but now he needed a new plan. He had heard the Doctor and Rose arguing and knew that he no longer held the sentiments for her that he had before, he just had to get close to him, reintroduce him to the Tardis, he just needed the Doctor to show him how to work it. Yes, by getting the Doctor to trust him he could achieve everything and destroy Rose in the process, now he just had to start work on the Doctor. He knew it would be a long and messy task having to act and think like a human, but it would be worth it.

Crevasse started to walk up to the Doctor.

'Hi' he timidly called out to the Doctor. He twirled around and grinned at him

'Hello!' he replied cheerfully 'Who might you be?'

'I am Crevasse' he answered quietly – rather like how Stavishm spoke. The Doctor walked up to him and shook his hand.

'Pleasure to meet you. I'm the Doctor, well apparently' he told him. Crevasse took this as his first opportunity to begin his plan. His faced turned thoughtful as he looked at the Doctor

'Are you sure? I remember you telling me your name was… something like Jack?' the Doctor frowned and thought

'I'm sorry I probably just remembered it wrong' he said embarrassed. He knew the first step was to act nonchalant, almost as though he wasn't sure. The Doctor ran his fingers through his hair whilst he shook his head, he really didn't know.

'I'm really not sure of my name. Why don't we call me… John Smith?' The Doctor suggested. Crevasse nodded and stuck his hand out

'Pleasure to meet you Mr Smith' The Doctor grinned

'Please, call me John' they smiled at each other. It was in this moment that Crevasse knew his plan was going to work. The Doctor walked back over to the control panel, he tapped it with his hand

'So what does this thing do?' he asked curiously. Crevasse walked up to him and tapped it as well,

'I was hoping you could tell me' he replied naively

'What? You're saying this is mine?' he asked amazed. Crevasse smiled at him and nodded

'Yes. I was visiting my old friend Stavishm when we met. This is your home – only you can control it' he told him, the Doctor grinned

'Only I can control it? Isn't that exciting' he exclaimed, Crevasse smiled at him

'Yes it is'

'So what's do?' he asked whilst hitting buttons. Crevasse paused thinking how much to tell him.

'I'm not sure…I was hoping we could figure this out' he replied, smiling smugly to himself. It was like taking candy from a baby.

'Hmmm, maybe later. I want to have a look around' the Doctor declared as Crevasses' face glared in annoyance.

'I don't suppose you happened to know what this place is?' he asked cheerfully.

'It's the Tardis' Crevasse recited. He froze as soon as he said it as he watched the Doctor react to this. The Tardis, he thought, that's what Rose said it was called. He ran his fingers through his hair, but she was lying – I was so sure she was lying. If she was telling the truth about this what else could she be telling the truth about, the Doctor wondered. Crevasse knew exactly what he was thinking and when he turned to look at him he smiled sweetly back. Something doesn't add up, the Doctor thought, he wished that he knew what was going on but he really didn't know who to trust. Well he hadn't said we were friends but Rose had, that's a sign of how desperately she wants to deceive me, he thought triumphantly, or a sign of how desperately she knows me. The Doctor didn't know who to trust out of these two so he decided to investigate his last option: Stavishm. He looked back at Crevasse, who was watching him like a hawk,

'Well, If you don't mind I'm going to have a bit of a look around' he stated cheerfully. Crevasse nodded and smiled back, as the Doctor turned and started to walk away he could feel Crevasses' eyes burning into his back. He looked around for a while and picked a room that he could stay in, then he re-entered the corridor and decided to hunt down Stavishm – he needed some answers. He found a room with a door that was shut and put his hand on the handle about to open it, something made him pause and then he heard the sound of muffled sobs coming through the door.

The pulled his hand back away from the door and walked on down the corridor to his room.

Rose lent against the wall crying into her hands, Stavishm slowly approached her unsure of what to do. We sat down next to her and put his arm around her, pulling her close, she settling into the crook of his arm. This is how I used to sit with the Doctor, she thought which caused more tears to fall. Stavishm just held her and they sat in silence for awhile whilst he waited for Rose to calm down a bit.

'I just want him back' she whispered to him

'He will return to us when he is ready' Stavishm advised her, she glared at him

'How can you say that! You saw him, heard him! He hates me, he can't even bare to look at me!' she started angrily but reduced herself to tears once again.

'Why don't you just try to talk to him? To show him the truth' he asked her gently. She looked up at him, her hazel eyes meeting his tin eyes – despite their lack of humanity they showed all the emotions that he felt, as far as Rose was concerned he was a real person. She shook her head

'I can't' she murmured

'Why not?' he prodded

'I just can't!' she exclaimed, hastily wiping away her tears. He gave her a small smile.

'You can, you're just immobilized by your fear and blinded by your tears' he told her with great wisdom. She continued to gaze fixedly at the wall in front of her.

'Things will never be the same again' she admitted after some time. She looked up to meet Stavishms' inquiring gaze

'We had so much; we meant so much to each other. We touched the stars together – we were inseparable… but now…now he can't bear to look at me. We battled evil forces and saved worlds we were the Doctor and Rose, we travelled in the Tardis living the life we had always dreamed of. We were a team a partnership I trusted him with my life and vice versa. But now we can't even remember his life, he can't figure out who his is and watching that kills me. I just want to hold him in my arms and tell him everything will be okay but I can't know that is true! Not when he can barely look at me and can't trust me, he doesn't know who I am and to be honest I don't know who I am either' she revealed as she allowed the tears to fall again. Stavishm looked at her and knew just how special she was.

'That's not true. I know who you are: you are Rose Tyler. A kind, compassionate girl, you would go to the ends of the universe for those you love.' Stavishm took her hand and wiped away her tears. The cold metal on her face felt more human to her than anything had in the last couple of hours.

'You are the most amazing person I have ever met and I would never have realised the wonders of the world or of humans if it wasn't for you. You are the best friend I have ever hand and I will never forget you.' he said as he squeezed her hand and smiled down at her. She looked up at him and smiled timidly back

'Really?' She uttered.

'Yes!' he told her as he pulled her to her feet. They smiled at each other and Rose realised what a true friend she had in Stavishm, she hugged him and whispered

'Thank you' he smiled at her and took her hand.

'I think we should get some rest and think of how to fix this in the morning' he told her, she nodded in agreement and together they walked down the corridor to their bedrooms. As they passed Crevasse they both turned to look at him as they continued to move, as he met their eyes they both glowered back. Crevasse knew he was pulling Rose away from the Doctor but in doing this he was pushing Rose and Stavishm together, despite everything that Stavishm knew of him and his past this was a risk he was going to have to take. Stavishm felt Rose tense as she passed Crevasse, almost as though she was going to lunge into an attack but he gently propelled her towards her room. Rose closed the door behind her and rubbed her face: she was tired – no more than tired – she was exhausted. She slowly made her way over to her bed and lay down gently upon it; she closed her eyes with images of the Doctor in her mind.

Likewise the Doctor had finished pacing his room deciding what to do. He was still unsure of what decision to make – who to trust. He knew that if he slept on it the answer would come in the morning. He threw himself into his bed and closed his eyes, images of the hurt look on Roses' face and the tears that stained her cheeks tore at his conscious. Soon they were both asleep. The whispers of the wind haunted the Tardis and the rain drops were telling a story, both Rose and the Doctor tossed and turned restlessly in their beds.

They were flying – they both knew that, beneath them waves hurled towards a beach and storms raged. Rose and the Doctor were both floating above the water, so close that they could feel the spray on their faces. The salty sea stung Roses' face but she continued to float above the waves, she was scared of breathing out in case she fell and landed in the torments of the ocean that would surely eat her alive. The Doctor floated along beside her his face squinting to see ahead, they turned to look at each other and smiled. The Doctor offered out his hand

'Trust me?' he asked with a quirky grin, she beamed back at him and accepted his hand

'Always' she replied. Together they floated above the ocean which was calming; the sun was shinning down on them tanning their skin. The clouds had disappeared and the sky was blue, dolphins danced below them in the ocean which had turn crystal blue and they could see all the way down to the bottom. Colourful fish danced beneath the waves, weaving in and out of the coral reefs, the ocean stretched out for miles and miles and the horizon seem impossibly far away. They continued to float over the ocean; a gentle breeze blowing Roses' hair back over her head, both of them gazing at the ocean which was dotted with tiny islands of white sand and palm trees. They smiled at each other fondly both thinking the same thought

'Fancy a holiday?' he asked her

'Yeah!' she replied enthusiastically. The gently steered themselves towards the islands trying to pick one they wanted to land on. The sun sparkled on the ocean reflecting into the Doctors' eyes so he looked more alive and more loving than ever. They slowly descended onto an island in front of them, as they landed their toes stunk into the ground and Rose realised she wasn't wearing any shoes as the warm sand sunk between her toes. They lay on the sand absorbing the Mediterranean heat as their skin slowly browned beneath the burning sun. Suddenly the Doctor stood up, he turned his back to Rose and when he turned to look at her he was dressed in his leather jacket again, his brown eyes gone and his northern accent back. Rose jumped up – her Doctor was back- the Doctor who she knew would never leave her or abandon her or give up on her. He grinned devotedly at her

'Isn't this nice. Back to how we used to be' he exclaimed in his Northern drawl. She beamed back at him excitedly grasping his hand as he pulled her in for a hug. He stepped back out of her arms and looked her in the eyes

'I'm going to take you to so many places' he began, Rose stepped back, those words were so familiar to her – like someone playing back a memory that she couldn't remember, it seemed a million years ago.

'But not like this' then it hit her as his body started to glow

'No!' she called out frantically; he stepped back away from her as tears began to form in her eyes

'No! Doctor, you can't do this to me again!' she pleaded knowing what was coming

'I'm never going to see you again' he taunted as his face started to change

'Please, no' she begged as his ears began to disappear, long brown hair started to sprout and deep brown eyes stared at her darkly and dangerously.

'I'm going to take you to so many places' goaded as he started towards her, tears fell from her face and she began to run from him.

'Rose?' he called out, his voice returning to normal and compassion holding his eyes

'No! Stay away from me!' she prayed as she ran on, so confused.

'Wait! What have I done?' he asked as he started to chase her. The next thing they knew they were floating over the ocean again only this time the waves were dark and treacherous, they were black as the night and rain pelted down onto them. Screams tore through the air and Rose tried to move her legs but realised she was trapped in time and space. She frantically kicked her legs in the air and the Doctor floated towards her

'Please' she whimpered as he reached her, he ran one hand down her cheek and looked into her confused eyes. He didn't understand

'Rose? What's going on?' he pleaded with her to tell him. Suddenly she shot across the ocean dropping slowly towards it as she neared the black depths she started to scream, this time sharks swarmed below her waiting to take a bite. The Doctor chased after her and tried to reach for her hand, ahead of her all Rose could see was where the horizon was, as she neared the horizon it didn't distance itself from her as it should have done. The horizon was a black line that she would surly fall off if no one could save her.

'Doctor!' she called finally as he came towards her, to him it seemed he was flying like lightning but to her it was as though he was taking as long as possible.

'Hold on I'm coming' he called in despair as she started to disappear over the cliff, he reached his hand out to her and she reached back up. Her scream echoed throughout his soul as she looked down and fell into the emptiness.

'What have I done?' the Doctor tortured scream pounced upon the waves.

Both Rose and the Doctor awakened suddenly from their nightmare, Roses' scream still reverberated throughout the Tardis and the Doctor could feel the sweat on his brow as he noticed his hand was still reaching out. The Doctor pulled his hand back and studied it for a moment as shards of his dream flashed through his mind; he had so many questions that needed answering such as; who was the man from the North, why did he want to save Rose so badly and why he was over come with such a wave of despair when she fell – though he could have cried. He knew there was only one person who could answer these questions, the person he had been fearing but he knew now was the time. He rose from his bed and started down the corridor.

Rose listened to her scream end and she shook her head trying to remove the contours of the nightmare. It had started so peaceful and calm – but ended so violently. She knew the dream showed her fear of trusting the new Doctor, it showed how his regeneration had ruined her, it also showed how she believed in her heart of hearts that he would fight for her, but she was unsure of whether he could save her. She wiped away the tears that had fallen whilst she slept and she huddled under the covers trying to think of what to do next. She had sat there for barely ten minutes when a knock on the door tore her away from her thoughts. She softly padded towards the door and quietly opened it to see the Doctor with the despair in his eyes mirroring her own. He looked at her as though he was unsure of why he was even there

'Can we talk?' he asked quietly. She nodded and moved away from the door to let him in. He surveyed her room absorbing the personal items that littered her cabinets and staring at the blood that decorated her pillow. He turned to meet her gaze unsure of what to say but she just stood there staring at him expectantly. He cleared his throat of unsure of how to begin

'Your face… it haunts it's splattered in my dreams' he began. She nodded in return

'I know' they both understood what they had shared that night – the dream – the doubt. Neither of them knew what to say but Rose shook her head at him

'Your presence still lingers here, and it just won't leave me alone. If your are not going to trust me, if you are going to make me your enemy, could you just leave me instead?' she asked weakly. He looked at her sharply

'Why?' he asked her, she closed her eyes to the pain of her heart and slowly opened them as she spoke

'Where you are seems to be as far as eternity' he shook his head at her not understanding

'My head is full of broken thoughts that I cannot repair. Only you can complete them because only you know who I am' he told her. She bit her lip as she took in what he was saying

'I try to kill them all away but I remember them all' she said with a sad smile.

'Don't forget me Rose. Please don't forget me, because then I will be nothing' his voice cracked as he begged her. Tears fell from her eyes as she whispered

'How could I forget you? There's just too much that time cannot erase. We had a past – such an amazing past, a past that would tell wonderful and magical stories…but its gone now. The past we had is remembered only by me and the more I look at you the more I remember, and the more I remember the more I hurt. The more I hurt the more I wish you would return to me or just leave and I know that is never going to happen, so I cannot return your memories to you because they won't be memories for you – they will be stories. You will hear them and look at me knowing they are true but not knowing the surroundings, the emotions, and I cannot be a storyteller. I cannot have a faux Doctor I can only have the real one who understands me so I beg you to leave me alone to reminisce and mourn.' He slowly walked up to her and took her hand gently.

'Please' he asked, she studied him for a moment and then her eyes turned angry as she pulled her hand back

'Learn to be lonely' she bitterly told him – knowing in her heart it was better for him this way even if it was killing her.

'I don't know what I've done to hurt you… to betray you. This wasn't my idea or my fault… so please don't blame me. Just think of what we once had' he told her hoping she would shed some light on his life.

'You used to captivate me by your brilliant mind and life but now I'm bound by the life you've left behind' she softly told him with a compassionate smile as she walked over to her bed to pull a blanket around herself.

'Please, all I know is what I dream. Your world…my world… is it rampant chaos?' he asked quietly. She smiled at this – a hopeless smile.

'Yes it is…was'. His eyes pleaded with her

'Then please tell me, it's as though I was born into emptiness.'

'Maybe you were' she whispered to herself. Memories of the Doctor and her played back through her memory and she knew that she at least owed him this. The Doctor watched her eyes knowing she was battling with herself on what to do. She looked up at him with a determined glint in her eye.

'What do you want to know?' she asked. He smiled at her

'Everything'

Stavishm turned back on from his charging position as soon as he heard Roses' scream echoing through the Tardis, he could sense something was very wrong in the ship. He left his room and entered the corridor to see the Doctor slowly walking along. He watched him raise his hand and knock on the door and be allowed in by Rose, he left them to talk knowing they had issues to deal with. Stavishm continued along the corridor and saw Crevasse also awake, facing Roses' room. He could tell that Stavishm was using his x-ray vision to scan inside of the room to access the success of his plan – this infuriated Stavishm who knew the x-ray vision was only allowed to be used in dire circumstances. Stavishm raised his arm and released the gun from within preparing to eliminate the enemy once and for all, Stavishm hated violence he couldn't see the point of it – that was until he met Rose and the Doctor. Now he could tolerate violence because he had friends to save. His weapon was aimed and he released a single bullet towards Crevasse.


Next Chapter: 'I cannot give in to your pleas, I can think of nothing else other than my past – our past. Their screams still echo throughout my mind, do you not hear them?' Crevasse asked. The Doctor turned to look at Rose curiously who just shook her head in return – she didn't understand what they were talking about either.

'Of course I do, a day doesn't go by in which I don't think of them' Stavishm told him as his voice cracked with emotion 'but you think that this is what they would have wanted? You think they will applaud you for your actions?'

Crevasse closed his eyes and pulled himself together banishing the images of their faces from his mind.

Thanks for reading! please tell me what you thought
