I look around myself in confusion 'somethings wrong...what is it?'

I see trees and a seemingly large dark forest surrounding me 'feels like...like somethings watching me...'

I try to shake it off as I start to move forward , moving between trees until I finally see something moving, I stop and wait to see what ever it is come out of the shadows but it doesn't move, I cautiously move closer only for my heart to stop, behind me I heard something moving, I turn around to see my absolute worst nightmare, A Weeping Angel is standing just behind me, its face covered.

I jump back only to bump into something, I turn and scream, another angel behind me, I stumble backwards away from them both in fear, my hands shaking as I stare wide eyed at them.

At my feet there's suddenly crackling as if a radio is being turned on, I slowly kneel down, reaching for what ever it is as I keep my eyes on the angels, I find a slightly large phone shaped communicator, I stand back up and cautiously press the button on the side and speak.

"Hello...? Please I need help" I say shakily, the radio crackles again for a moment before my heart drops into my stomach.

"The Angels cannot help you Rose" the voice of Angel Bob comes through.

I drop the communicator and continue to back away from the Angels, my fear spiking and making me feel sick to my stomach, but to my horror as I watch the Angels actually start to move, creaking and grinding of stone can be hurt as they slowly turn to face me, their teeth slowly being barred, their claws reaching out toward me, I stumble back faster before my back hits something solid and arms wrap around me.

I scream and start thrashing, trying desperately to get out of the things arms, but soon a familiar voice sounds round me "Rose...Rosie Rose, wake up...Rose!"

_

I gasp and wake up, my whole body shaking as someone is holding me to them tightly "Rose! Rose it's alright" I hear the Doctor saying worriedly, cradling me to his chest, I look up shakily to see his worried face, I relax and grip the front of his suit shakily, burying my face into his chest as I try to keep from crying, my whole body quaking from the nightmare.

"Shh, there we go, its alright, it was only a nightmare" he says soothingly, gently rubbing my back as I cling to him, I close my eyes tightly as I breath, trying to calm down.

"S...sorry..." I whisper as I sigh, relaxing a little as he try's to press through the closed connection, I open it and instantly am flooded with worry and reassurance and warmth, causing me to relax more.

"it was nothing more than a nightmare" he reassures me again, gently kissing my forehead soothingly, I relax more and slowly sit up, wiping my eyes quickly, now a little embarrassed, he smiles down at me softly "it's alright now" he says softly, gently cupping my cheek as he looks over my face before softly kissing my nose, I smile a little and relax more, the nightmare already slipping away, only leaving a bit of unease.

I gently take his other hand "thank you" I murmur softly before he nods and smiles more.

"You're very welcome" he says softly, gently taking both my hands in his as he smiles wider "now, shall we get up and explore that school?" He asks, I nod and smile wider, standing as he does, I gently squeeze his hands before I let them go and grab my dark coat with the red lining happily, him grabbing his long brown tench coat.

I smile happily, all thoughts of the dream gone for now "did you see Sarah?" I ask as I watch him pull on his coat, he smiles more and nods, getting excited now.

"I did! Is that who you were speaking of?" He asks as we leave our room and head for the console room, I nod happily.

"Yup! I knew I couldn't see her yet because that would sorta blow you're cover a little early, at least with her" I say and shrug, he nods and we sneak out of the Tardis quietly before meeting up with Mickey and Rose in the parking lot, then we head inside quietly.

I make sure my sleeves are rolled up and going to stay that way as I didn't want them to fall and be restricting or distracting during this, we'd have other problems to worry about tonight.

As we step inside the Doctor grabs my hand as we walk side by side, Rose and Mickey behind us "oh! It's weird seeing school at night" Rose comments cautiously "it just feels wrong"

I nod softly "I agree..." I murmur softly, a shiver running down my spine, remembering the horrid creatures we'd have to run from soon enough.

"When I was a kid, I used to think all the teachers slept in school" she continues before we stop, looking around the hallways around us, I gently squeeze the Doctors hand a little as I glance behind me down a dark hallway.

Seeming to sense my nerves the Doctor sends me warmth and reassurance, squeezing my hand back as well before he speaks.

"All right, team...Oh, I hate people who say 'team' " he grumbles, I smile softly and shake my head a little "uh, Gang. Erm...comrades..." I snort softly in amusement as he tries to brush past it.

"Anyway, Rose, go to the kitchen, get a sample of that oil. Mickey, the new staff are all maths teachers. Check out the maths department. Me and Rosie are going to look in finches office. Meet back here in 10 minutes" he says seriously, we all nod a little and me and him head up the stairs quickly, my heart rate starting to speed up, excitement and nervousness starting to swirl through me.

As we are heading down a hallway we both stop, hearing a faint screeching, I shiver again, he looks down to me a little concerned "maybe..." he starts but I shake my head, knowing where he was going with this "No, I'm sticking with you" I say seriously, he nods a little before we continue on after the sound quickly but quietly.

As we turn a corner and start into a larger room, I think the gym, I pull him to a stop gently, smiling a little as I see the closet door close and a woman step out backwards away from in, in shock, my heart speeds up more and she soon turns to see us both standing watching her, her eyes wide in shock and awe.

"Hello, Sarah Jane" the Doctor says beside me, I smile more as she looks both of us over in shock.

"It's you...both of you" she breaths out "Doctor...Rose.." she says, stepping closer to us, I cant help myself and I let go of the Doctors hand and run to her, she catches me in a tight hug and I smile more, laughing softly as she hugs onto my tightly.

"Sarah, its so good to see you" I say happily, hugging her back just as tightly.

We pull back and smile at each other before she looks to the Doctor in awe, I gently lay my hand on her arm as she steps a bit closer to him.

"You've regenerated" she says, smiling more with tears but happiness in her eyes, he nods softly.

"Yeah. Half a dozen times since we last mat" he says, she looks to me in shock and I nod to confirm his words.

"You look...incredible...both of you" she says, I smile more and nod as the Doctor responds.

"So do you" I nod again "you do Sarah" I murmur happily.

"I got old" she dismisses us, I shake my head softly "that doesn't change what we said" I comment softly and she looks to me, I smile warmly at her "you do look incredible Sarah, and I should know, I saw you very recently, on the Ark in space" I say and her eyes widen.

"Really...? Oh that was so long ago..." she says softly, I nod a little and smile gently before she looks between me and the Doctor again as I move to stand back beside him, he grabs my hand gently as she asks.

"What are you two doing here?" She asks, now curious as much of the shock had warn off.

"Well, UFO sightings, school gets record results. We couldn't resist. What about you?" He asks, she smiles more.

"The same" she says, we all smile before her smile slips to show sadness and worry "I thought you'd died...I waited for you, you didn't come back and I thought you both must have died" she says, heartbroken, my smile falls as does the Doctors, I frown sadly and glance to him then back to her, feeling sadness roll over him so I speak before he can.

"He lived...the others...the time lords...they are gone..." I murmur softly, I feel his hand tighten around mine, Sarah frowns more "what..?"

I meet her eyes sadly "everyone else died, Sarah...the time war...it destroyed everyone...including me in the future..." I murmur, the Doctor looking down as I can feel his grief, I gently tighten my hold on his hand.

Her eyes widen "but...but you're here, alive" she says confused, I shake my head softly and smile sadly "I haven't gotten there in my time line yet...I still have a long way to go...but thats where it seem's I am bound to end up" I tell her softly, she shakes her head and steps closer.

"No, you can't, you have always been there for him, for all of us, you mustn't go then, there must be some way we can change it" she insists, I shake my head softly and smile at her gently, my eyes stinging with tears at her concern.

"It's alright, I've already accepted it, I still have a long time before that time comes, probably years" I say and shrug a little, she frowns softly and I smile at her more, not wanting her to worry.

"I'll be ok Sarah, I promise" I say softly, she sighs before smiling a little and nodding, looking between us both again.

"I just can't believe it's really you two..." she says before we all look behind us, a loud scream coming from somewhere else in the school, I smile widely and look back to her as she gasps "okay, now I can" she says, I laugh and grab her hand before all three of us run into a hallway, meeting up with Rose, I smile widely.

"Did you hear that?" She asks before she sees Sarah next to to us "who's she?" She asks, I nod to Sarah happily "Rose, this is Sarah Jane Smith, Sarah Jane, this is Rose" the Doctor introduces quickly, both me and him smiling widely.

Both Rose and Sarah look a bit shocked "the Sarah Jane?" Rose asks, I beam more and nod, that meant either me or the Doctor spoke about her in this, Sarah looks to me confused and shocked as well "Rose? The Rose in the future?" Sarah asks, I nod softly "yup! The whole two Rose's thing gets a bit confusing so I go by Rosie while traveling with her" I explain, she nods and they both smile and shake hands, greeting each other before we head on quickly.

'They aren't fighting! Yes! I need to make sure to mention them both in front of the other in my future' I cheer mentally, I had always absolutely hated how they would fight so much in this episode, it was heartbreaking, even if they made up later, it still broke me that Rose had been so jealous to be so mean to poor Sarah.

We run into a classroom to find Mickey still freaking out a little as he turns to us quickly, the floor covered in vacuum packed rats, I grimace a little.

"Sorry. Sorry, it was only me" Mickey says quickly "you told me to investigate so I started looking through these cupboards and all these fell out on me" I stay near the door, watching the group go to investigate, I'd seen enough dead animals to last me a lifetime and the rats only made me uncomfortable.

I glance out into the hallway before I stiffen, my heart sinking sadly as I hear the music starting up in the background "shit.." I mumble.

"Language Rosie" the Doctor says before he seems to register my emotions and he drops the packed rat he had been holding and stands, frowning, I look back to them all and smile sadly.

"Looks like I'm leaving already..." I murmur sadly, both Sarah and Rose looks sad, Mickey just seems a bit curious, I smile at them all "I love you all, remember that ok? You are the best" I say happily as the music gets louder, the Doctor quickly comes over and gently takes my hand, stepping out into the hallway with me, he frowns down at me worriedly.

"Be careful, please, I don't know where you could be going" he says worriedly, I smile sadly up at him, gently squeezing his hand "I will be, I promise, you be careful too, I don't when or if I'll be back to help with all of this, and make sure you look after Sarah and Rose, and Mickey, poor guy needs some help here and there" I say and smile as he chuckles a little.

I lean up and softly peck his lips, he whines softly when I pull away faster than he wanted, I giggle a little and he pouts down at me "you are a tease" he grumbles, I smile more and nod.

"Hun, you should have figured that out by now" I tease softly, he pouts more and leans down and lays his head on my shoulder, pouting like a child, I giggle a little more and reach up, gently running my fingers through his hair, he wraps his arms loosely around my waist, leaning into my touch more.

I softly kiss the side of his head and sigh softly, his arms tightening around my waist more "I hate leaving..." I murmur sadly, continuing to gently comb my fingers through his hair.

He nods a little, sending me affection and reassurance through the convention "I know, Love, but you should be with me again soon" he says softly, gently rubbing my back with one of his hands, I shiver a little and lean into his touch "I know...I know you'll be there, I'm just sick of jumping around so much, I just want to stay for a while, longer than a few days" I murmur as the music gets louder.

He raises his head just enough to look at me in the eyes, his breath fanning over my face "be strong, for me, you'll soon be with me for a while, soon, I promise" he says softly, trying to send me reassurance and love, gently pulling me even closer, I smile sadly and shake my head.

"You can't promise that Doctor...I love you" I say softly, the music becoming deafening now, I lean up and softly pull him into another kiss before everything disappears, I sigh sadly, my heart sinking sadly.

I stay there for a few moments, relishing in the warmth his hold had given me before I stop, realizing that was really weird, I open my eyes and look down at myself 'his touch shouldn't feel warm...should it...?' I shake my head softly and frown 'I need to ask him about that...'

I glance down at my tattoos, seeing the new small tattoo in the shape of K-9. Though its barely visible, I smile a little and rub the tattoo a little and sigh before closing the connection, not even bothering to look at the clock to know its changed.

I blink and I'm suddenly in a dark alleyway, I glance around to see the tall buildings around and an area that's cordoned off with large fencing put up, I keep looking around before walking over to the fencing and I peering through the small opening between two of the fences, glancing inside until I stiffen, my heart stopping when I see a small puddle in the ground, or the hole the puddle should have been in, as well as the scorch marks around it on the cement.

I squeeze back through the fence and run, my heart racing as I look around, getting out into a street filled with people enjoying their night, I turn around and around, looking for someone I know will run by any second, and just as I turn again I smile widely seeing Bill sprinting down the street toward me, I grab her arm as she runs past, spinning her around and smiling at her widely.

She looks at me a bit confused "sorry, I gotta go" she says quickly, I nod and let go of her arm, running along side her.

"I know Bill, and before you ask, I know who you are, and what's going on, I'll explain later, for now we need to get to the Doctor" I say quickly as we run, she looks to me again, confused but we keep running until we get to just outside the school.

She stops and looks up into the Doctors window to see him pacing back and forth, I smile widely seeing him before I sigh remembering that Heather would be standing behind me under the tree, and just on queue, I hear the water dripping behind me.

I turn with Bill to see the poor dead girl, I gently grab Bills arm to stop her from moving any closer "Bill...don't" I warn seriously.

She looks back to me then to the dripping her "Bill, she's gone, we have to go, now" I say seriously, Bill shakes her head nervously.

"But she's...she's right there" she says, I tighten my hold on her arm again as the Heather duplicate repeats what Bill said, I can feel the girl shiver under my hold on her, I glance to Heather sadly, sad I didn't arrive earlier to save her.

"Bill, we go now" I say seriously again before the girl in front of us lunges forward, I pull Bill back and we sprint into the school, up flights of stairs and towards the Doctors office, I slam the door open and close it behind us.

"Honey! I'm home!" I call as Bill shoves a chair between the door handle and floor, the Doctor stands and sets his eye piece down and the vial of water "And what time do you call this?" He asks, I smirk and nod to Bill.

"Found Bill being chased by a girl made of water, not as bad as the waters of Mars thankfully but definitely as scary" I say quickly as he comes over quickly.

He looks a bit confused at that before the water starts to flow in from under the door, he comes over to see it, quickly moving to stand a little in front of me, I gently grab the back of his coat, my adrenaline wearing off quickly and being replaced with nervousness.

"What is that?" He asks Bill, she looks horrified as she watches it.

"I'll tell you what it isn't. It isn't a freak optical effect" she says as the girl slowly rises up out of the puddle.

"And its following me" she continues shakily, the Doctor watching the girl curiously though I can sense his caution even without the connection open, which reminds me, I open it quickly and he stumbles back a little, I wince a little as he glances down at me quickly than back up "sorry..." I murmur, he presses his mind to mine, humor and affection coming through, I blush a little and look back to the puddle girl.

I see Bill stumble back against the Tardis, letting out a strangled whimper, I frown and look to her worriedly, but the Doctor raises his hands and reaches out a little toward the dripping wet girl "Doctor..." I murmur worriedly as Bill speaks up.

"No. No. What are you doing?" She asks, freaking out, I gently pull on the back of his coat and he seems to snap out of it, grabbing my hand quickly and moving us over to the blue box in the corner.

"I'll tell you what, let's pop into my box" he says quickly, unlocking the door and opening it before shoving me inside first, I look back and watch them worriedly, not minding the completely dark room as I hear Bill talking outside the door in fear.

"Your box? What good is getting in your box going to do?" She asks quickly as he shoves her inside after me.

"What an extraordinarily long and involved answer this is going to be" he says quickly before following us in, I giggle a little, relaxing more now inside the safe sentient box, I lean on the railing as the Doctor closes the door and they both lean against the doors, trying to look through the windows, the Doctor however opens the door quickly and takes the 'Out Of Order' sign off it before closing the door again.

I smile softly as Bill asks "how do we stop her getting in?" She asks as he tosses me the sign, I catch it and smirk, putting it on like a necklace, he smirks and rolls his eyes at my childishness before looking back out the window.

"We're trapped in here" she says, looking to him nervously.

"Nothing gets through these doors" he says confidently, pointing up and at them.

"But they're made of wood. They've got windows!" She says quickly, gesturing the windows as he smirks at her, I take off the sign and smile more as I watch, the Doctor quickly walking past, kissing my cheek softly before he continues and goes to change his coat, I move to the console in the dark, gently patting it happily before looking back to Bill.

"Look. This is all mad, I know, but...that's the girl I told you about. Heather" she says nervously, I lean back against the console happily, the lights all starting to come on as she continues to talk "Only, I don't think it's really her" the Doctor comes down the stairs as he adjusts his coat, I smile fondly at him and send affection and humor his way, he beams at me happily.

"I know this is hard to believe. I know you're not exactly a sci-if person..." she says before turning around, I smile and cross my arms over my chest comfortably as I watch her reaction, sensing the excitement from the Doctor.

"Time and Relative Dimension in Space" he says, adjusting his shirt sleeves as he watches her "Tardis for short" he says before basically bouncing around the console, Bill looking around in shock and confusion.

"You're safe in here" he says, raising his hand to her in a sort of gesture "you're safe in here and you always will be" I nod with his words and smile as she slowly walks farther inside, nearly stumbling down the stairs, I smile back at the Doctor, I come over and stand on my tip toes, gently kissing his cheek happily before leaning against the railing as I watch.

The Doctors mind presses to my own happily, seeming to want to engulf me, I smile more and let him, pressing my mind back closer to his and I see his shoulders straighten and chest puff up a little, I giggle a little as he smiles at me more before facing Bill again.

"Any questions?" He asks, she slowly starts to walk around the console as she looks around "is this a knock through?" She asks.

I smirk a little and shake my head as the Doctor beams more "well, in a way, yes" I snicker softly.

"Look at this place..." she says probably more to herself than anyone else.

"It's like a..." she starts but the Doctor interrupts her "spaceship" but she continues, looking to him with wide eyes "kitchen" I can instantly feel his confusion and disappointment, he looks at me a bit then back to her "A what?"

"A really posh kitchen. All metal" she says, raising her hands and looking at the console before she looks back to him, raising her hand and gesturing to the doors "what happened to the doors, though? Did you run out of money?" I snort and try to contain my laughter as he glares at me, a little annoyed that I found this so funny, I smile and send him affection and love and he relaxes, rolling his eyes a little.

He looks back at her "what you are standing in is a technological marvel" he explains, walking over to her then past around the console again "it is science beyond magic. This is the gateway to everything that ever was. Whatever can be" he says, in awe himself, I smirk at him as she looks at him around the console.

"Can I use the toilet?" She asks casually, his smile falls and he just seems really confused as he looks around to her before coming over to her "Pardon?"

"I've had a fright. I need the toilet" she says, I smile softly as he tells her the directions, sending him more humor as I watch.

I smile more when I see Nardole coming up the stairs past Bill "Human alert. Do you want me to repel her?" He asks the Doctor, not seeing me yet.

"She's just passing through. She wants to use the toilet" the Doctor explains casually, I smirk as Nardole looks back to Bill "Oh. I'd give it a minute if I were you" he says, I chuckle a little and come over to the Doctors side by the console before the whole place shakes, I fall into the Doctor, forgetting about that, I blush as his arm comes around to hold me against his side as he steadies both of us "sorry.." I mumble a bit embarrassed, he smiles softly and kisses my forehead.

"Oh! What was that?" Nardole asks quickly.

"We have a encroacher on campus. Extra-terrestrial. We're under attack" the Doctor explains, pulling the monitor around to us with his free hand, I pull away to let him work with his hands, he quickly gets to work moving us, I sit down on the chair attached to the railings as I watch quietly, smiling softly as I watch him.

The ship shaking again as we take off, I grip the chair happily and smile up at the ceiling as Bill exclaims "this isn't just a room, is it?" The Doctor looks between her and the console multiple times as he responds "No, its not just a room"

"This is a lift!" She exclaims, I giggle as the Doctor looks at her in exasperation before pulling the lever back up to land us before I stand and me, him and Nardole move to the doors, the Doctor stops me and lets the other two out before he looks me in the eyes.

"I want you to wait here, we wont be a moment" he says, I go to speak but he puts his index finger up to my lips gently "please" he says before I sigh and nod, smiling a little as he smiles down at me, kissing my forehead again before he follows them out, I sigh softly and wander back to the console quietly, gently running my hand along the metal.

"You know, someday the Doctor won't have to worry so much about me...I'm going to find a way to make sure he doesn't..." I murmur softly, the Tardis hums softly to me and I smile sadly and look up at the ceiling "ya...probably wont happen, but I can dream..." I say softly before flopping onto one of the seats again, looking to the doors as Bill looks inside again.

"Hang on. The room's still inside the box" she says "this isn't a knock through" she murmurs the last bit and the Doctor responds "No"

She points inside and smiles as she looks back at them "Doctor, it's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside" she says, I giggle a little and nod, watching as she closes the door.

I can hear their muffled voices but I tune them out, standing again and moving to the console again "you know, I think after all of this I'm going to make him take me someplace nice if I stay long enough, maybe a picnic or something, something not life threatening or exhausting" I chuckle a little before looking up as they all race back inside, I move away from the console so the Doctor could do his work.

I tune out their conversation as I move over toward the doors and as soon as we land I step outside, smiling a little as the Doctor follows me out, I lean on the railing overlooking the water happily, I wasn't the biggest fan of direct sunlight but this was nice after the craziness I've been through recently.

I smile as I watch the Doctor, he turns back to Bill, smiling at me as he turns, I lean on the railing more and looking to Bill behind me happily, relaxing and knowing we are safe for a few minutes at most.

Bill is just spinning as she tries to take it all in "But..." the Doctor nods "yes"

"We've moved again" she states, the Doctor nods again and his smile never wavering "we have" he agrees.

"It was night..." she says, moving closer to us as she keeps looking around, I nod softly and turn so my back is against the railing now "yup" the Doctor agrees again, obviously enjoying her astonishment.

"Now its day..." she says, I smile softly as I watch her, Bill was awesome in the show and I couldn't wait to get to know her now.

"Definitely day" the Doctor says, his arms out and resting on the railing behind him, I smirk a little at him, knowing he's just showing off now.

"Have we traveled in time?" She asks, walking up to him quickly.

"No, of course not. We've traveled to Australia" he says. Stepping away from the railing and gesturing behind him to the huge opera house, I snicker and gently smack his arm, earning myself a pouting frown in return "show off" I tease softly and he smiles softly.

I sigh as Bill runs into the restaurant, I follow as the Doctor goes after her to make sure she's alright, I move in front of him and step into the bathroom after her, motioning for the Doctor to wait but of course he doesn't, standing in the doorway now as she splashes water onto her face.

"How are you doing?" He asks before I can say anything, I rub my forehead a little.

"How do you think?" She asks exasperated, trying to catch her breath as she leans against the wall, I raise my eyebrow at the Time Lord as he looks a bit sheepish before stepping in all the way.

"Right. Um..." he begins but I raise my hand to shush him before I look to her.

"Bill, you ok? Maybe we should find someplace comfortable to sit down" I say, moving a bit closer to her.

She turns back to us, water still dripping from her face, she shakes her head to me "No, I'm fine" she then looks to the Doctor "can I ask you a personal question?"

He looks like a deer in the headlights for a split second before quickly hiding it and just saying "No" I roll my eyes and smirk a bit.

"Cam I anyway?" She asks, swaying from foot to foot.

"Yes" he nods, giving in easily.

"Are you from space?" She asks "no, of course not. Nobody's from space. I'm from a planet like everybody else" he says, I roll my eyes again and sighs.

She's still trying to calm down as she faces him again "this planet?" She asks, he opens his mouth before shutting it and looking down "No, not specifically this one" he says.

"Doesn't make sense then" she says, I smile more, I look to the Doctor, he asks "what doesn't?"

"Tardis. If you're from another planet, why would you name your box in English?" She asks, he pauses at that, actually a little confused himself, I giggle a little.

"His granddaughter named her" I say and she smiles at me a little "she loved Earth and so she named it Tardis" I explain, before she nods curiously, her mind racing now as she starts to pace.

"It looks like a phone box" she says, I nod again and cross my arms comfortably.

"Yes. Well, that's the cloaking device. It sort of hides itself" he explains, I roll my eyes and smile softly at his terrible explanation so I look to her again.

"Before he says anything else, yes, she isn't hidden all that well anymore, but her chameleon circuit is broken and he doesn't know how to fix her" I say, gesturing toward the Time Lord, he bristles a little at that.

"I do too! I just like the phone box" he huffs, I smirk at him "I love the phone box, but that doesn't change the fact you have no clue what to do to fix it" I tease and he playfully glares at me as she looks between us confused.

She laughs a little at our banter before she glances to the mirror only to freeze, I look over and my heart sinks, I step forward and grab her arm, quickly pulling her away as water starts to seep through the mirror.

"Ok, time to go!" I say quickly, pulling the door open as a face starts to melt through the mirror, I shove the other two out first and we sprint into the room.

"Out! Out! Everybody out! Shark attack!" The Doctor yells, no one moves however until the girl comes shrieking out of the bathroom after us, dripping in water and everyone starts screaming and running.

We sprint back into the Tardis and the Doctor gets us going quickly, I grip the railing as the ship shakes around us, grinning happily up at the ceiling before focusing back on the others in the room as we land "23 million years in the future" the Doctor says, grinning at Bill before heading for the door, he looks back, gently taking my hand as he passes and pulling me out with him.

He stops at the door and smiles at her "Oh yes, it's a time machine, too" he brags before heading outside, gently pulling me with him, I smile softly and step out after him, intertwining our fingers gently as I look around happily, breathing in deeply, enjoying the slight cinnamon taste in the air.

The Doctor lets go of my hand as he talks with Nardole and Bill happily, I smile softly as I watch, leaning back against the Tardis as I watch them wander a bit away, I zone out a little as I start to get lost in thought, watching the Doctor quietly before the girls scream shakes me back to reality, my eyes widen and I run over quickly.

I help pull Bill back from the puddle before we all run back inside the Tardis quickly, the puddle exploding up into a fountain, forming a sort of face as it continues to scream, once inside I keep a hold of Bills arm worriedly as she coughs and gags for air, the Doctor sprints in, closing the door and jumping down the steps to the console, BIll relaxes a little as she gets air again and she looks to the Doctor with wide eyes.

"Okay. It's fast, it time travels and never gives up" he says, getting us moving again and I let go of Bill and grab onto the railing for a bit of support.

"Plan. Basic sterilization. We're gonna run that thing through the deadliest fire in the universe" the Doctor exclaims, I sigh softly, knowing this would suck.

Nardole nods and moves closer to the Doctor "Yes! That sounds excellent 'the deadliest fire in the universe' that's definitely good" he says quickly, being a bit dramatic.

Bill steps forward now "how do we do that?" She asks quickly.

"The only way we can, we run through it first" he responds only for Nardole to say "less good now" before the ship shakes again, I tighten my grip on the railing as the Doctor runs up one of the staircases and rummages around for one of his sonics.

"No, not there. I don't like it there!" Nardole shouts, I grimace, I too hated anything near Daleks.

"Nardole!" The Doctor shouts, coming back down the stairs and tossing the sonic at the poor cyborg thing.

"I don't like it there" Nardole exclaims again before he catches it as the Doctor jumps down the last few steps in a hurry.

"I want you running interference, can you do that?" He asks, Nardole looks from the sonic in his hand to the Doctor "can I say no, sir?" The Doctor shakes his head "No!"

"Yes, then" he says shakily.

"Thank you" the Doctor says, turning to go another way quickly.

"But no, really" Nardole says.

"Where are we?" Bill asks freaked out.

"Well, basically in the middle of a war" he says quickly, I quickly come over to stand next to Nardole.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you Nardole, I don't think a Dalek could stop two of us" I smile at him, he seems to relax just a little and smiles back before the Doctor turns to us quickly, pointing at me with serious eyes.

"No, no no no, you are staying here, in the Tardis, Nardole can handle himself" he says seriously, I raise my eyebrow at him "Doctor, I'll be fine" I say seriously but he shakes his head seriously, coming over quickly to me, gently gripping my shoulders as he looks down into my eyes seriously.

"No, I want you to stay here, please" he pleads, I sigh softly, sensing his worry and nerves through the connection, I glare half heartedly up at him and cross my arms "one day that won't work on me mister, but we don't have time for this now" I say, gently nudging him toward the door, he beams at me and kisses my cheek happily before bolting off with Bill and Nardole.

As the door closes I frown softly, shoulders slumping a little and I look up to the ceiling "is he only being protective cause he hasn't seen me for a while?" I ask and she hums affirmatively to me, I sigh again and take my hair tie out of my hair before running my fingers through it, scratching at my scalp a little to loosen up the tense skin there before pulling my hair into a more gentle loose ponytail.

I glance to the doors quietly, sending my worry for the Doctor through the connection, he nearly instantly responds, sending me warmth and reassurance, I relax a little and wander up onto the second level, brushing my hand over a few of the books on the shelves before I flop into the Doctors chair, just watching the doors for a while before they finally return.

I smile softly and stand, coming down as the Doctor gets us heading back home, I lean against the console next to him as Bill watches us, I glance to her and smile softly.

"You ok?" I ask and she nods a little before nodding toward us.

"Yeah...is he your dad? Would explain why you know who I am" she says, I stiffen and have to cover my mouth to hold back a laugh, the Doctor stiffens next to me and looks very disgruntled as he looks at her, looking offended "I don't look old enough to be her dad" he snaps grumpily.

She raises her eyebrow and I shake my head, smiling up at him before looking back to her "its a really...really weird and long story, short version is no, he's not my dad, he's my future husband" I say softly, she looks shocked and he smirks, puffing his chest out a little as he wraps an arm around my waist, I giggle a little and gently swat at his chest before looking back to her.

"Trust me, I know it looks pretty odd from the outside, but it gets so much weirder, he isn't human, and neither am I, he's far older than he looks, but I don't care really" I shrug a little "I jump around his life, not by choice, but I'm beginning to very much enjoy it, so for him, he's known me most of his life, and I've known him for...I'd say nearly four months now? But I also knew about him way before actually meeting him in person" I explain to the best of my abilities.

She slowly nods "so how old are you? If you aren't human, and his age doesn't bother you" she asks curiously, I laugh a little, a blush coming to my face more now as I reply "22, in real human years, I grew up on earth...well, a earth, not this one, but one in another world, another life, but I'm here now, and honestly I don't think I'd ever trade it" I say happily, the Doctor tightening his arm around my waist as I spoke.

She nods and once we land I make him let me go and kiss his cheek softly "I need a shower so I'm going to go take one, then I'm going to grab some food" I tell him happily before heading off.

I take a quick shower before pulling on some comfortable clothes, sweats and a baggy t-shirt before going to the kitchen to grab some food, yawning a little as I pour myself some tea and make a sandwich, smiling softly as I soon hear the sound of the Doctor's shoes on the metal floor out in the hall, I hear the door open and glance back, smiling softly seeing the Doctor back in his comfy sweatshirt and coat over it.

He comes in and gently wraps his arms around me from behind, pulling me back against him, I giggle a little and lean more against him, he rests his head on my shoulder and I reach up, gently running my fingers through his curly grey hair, he closes his eyes and leans into my touch, making a soft sound of approval.

I smile gently and kiss the side of his head "I know you want to go and have adventures with Bill" I say softly, he sighs and tightens his arms around me gently.

"I can't, I made a promise" he grumbles softly, I nod, continuing to gently comb through his hair.

"Yes you did, but guess what?" He hums in response before I continue "you have a time machine, you Don't even have to actually be gone for a minute" I say softly, he chuckles a little "I'm guessing thats a hint?" He asks, I nod and smile gently.

"Absolutely. Bill is amazing, and she deserves to see the stars" I say softly, before shivering and gasping a bit as the Doctor leaves a soft kiss along my neck, I blush and smile more.

"Hey, I'm trying to be serious here" I tease softly, he smirks and kisses my neck again, I huff and cross my arms, he smirks more and leans up a little, kissing my cheek now, I relax and smile more up at him.

"You are a sap" I tease and he smiles more "for you? I'll be anything" he comments happily, I giggle a little and shake my head, glancing down to his hands around my waist, seeing the ring on his ring finger I gently take his left hand, looking closer at the ring.

He watches me curiously as I gently spin it around his finger "what was it like...?" I ask, he frowns a little and I can feel the intense confusion from him "what...?" He asks hesitantly, I giggle again and look back up at him.

"Our wedding day...you don't have to give away any spoilers...I just wanna know anything about it, what was the weather like? Where was it?" I ask softly.

He looks a bit nervous and I gently pull his hand up, kissing it softy and he relaxes more, smiling a little "it was cloudy and stormy out, we wanted our friends to be witnesses so we had it in the forest near UNIT HQ" he murmurs softly, smiling fondly, I smile more and nod, gently releasing his hand and turning in his arms, wrapping my arms around him tightly.

He hugs back tightly, kissing the top of my head gently, I close my eyes happily, relaxing more into his touch, pressing my mind to his gently, him pressing back, sending affection and happiness to me.

I look up at him and smile happily "you know, I need to start carrying around a stool with me, you're just too tall to kiss" I pout jokingly, he smirks and leans down, capturing my lips with his, I kiss back happily, gently wrapping my arms around his neck and gently running my fingers though his hair softly, he tightens his arms around my waist and pulls me closer into the kiss.

I pull away after a moment, panting softly and blushing as he leans his forehead against mine gently, I smile more and close my eyes, pressing my mind closer to his again, getting warmth and affection from him again, I send back the same happily.

Though the happiness fades as I can hear the music starting in the background, I groan softly and frown, opening my eyes to look up at him sadly, he looks me in the eyes and smiles sadly, gently kissing my nose.

"Be strong, and be careful, Love" he says softly, I nod softly and reach up, gently cupping his cheek softly "you too, now go get Bill before she runs off" I say and smile softly, leaning up and pulling him into a kiss again, closing my eyes as the music becomes deafening before nothingness.

My heart sinks and I look around to find the void as always, I quickly wipe away a tear and take a deep breath to calm down, I look to the tattoos to see a small water drop, and the clock changing to hour 2, minute 6.

I close the connection quickly and close my eyes, but as silence persists for a while I start to get nervous so I slowly open my eyes and my heart drops into the pit of my stomach, my eyes widening as in front of me is a huge expanse of shelves filled with books, spanning for miles and the entire room is dark besides where I am standing with my back to a double door.

I lean back against the door shakily as I try to calm down 'River, the Library, Donna, I have to get out of here!'


I'm sorry if this isn't the best chapter, I changed it up a few times and I'm not super happy with it even after that, but I'm hoping I'll get out of this writing funk soon!

The next chapter is gonna be insane and I hope you will all enjoy it!

I love you all!
