"Rose?"
"What?" She turned around to face Colton as he stopped running.
"Don't listen to her."
"She is right though. Killing Reyos' brother wasn't right just because they hurt you. I know I had no control, but still..." Rose looked up at the Powell Estates. "I still don't regret what I did though. I can take lives without regret. What kind of a person does that make me Colton?"
"The kind monsters fear." He said as he looked up at the building. "But we both already decided we're not good people."
"Yeah." Rose sighed and looked at her friend. "Plan?"
"Might as well figure it out."
"Hunters are after me again, so what if I turn myself over?"
"Why? They know you can't die. They would just torture you Rose. Plus they know the team would just come after them."
"Yes, but they don't know about The Doctor do they?" Rose smirked and Colton grinned.
"No they don't, but how do we get his help?"
"He'll help."
"Alright then. You turn yourself in..."
"And the team takes out the soldiers while The Doctor makes his way to the top and surprises Reyos." Rose finished for him.
"And what? You know he won't hurt him. The Doctor doesn't do that. You told me yourself Rose."
"He can distract him though. Give you guys time to break me out so that we can get him."
"That's a lousy plan and you know it." Colton rubbed his temples and Rose threw her hands in the air.
"I know! I always make it up as I go Colton! I don't have a clue what to do."
"Fine...we'll just go with what you came up with. Hell maybe the others will have something to pitch in."
"Good. Let's go back and get this over with."
…...
"I'm really sorry that I upset Rose." Donna said as she watched Rebel yawn. "You guys have it rough."
"I'm fine really. Just a moody girl who has yet to finish her cake." Rose said as she walked into the TARDIS. Colton chuckled as he followed her in. "Could really kill for something sweet."
"Rose..."
"Nah Donna it's fine! You're right, but sorry won't change my ways. I'm a killer nowadays." She plopped down onto the captains chair and looked at The Doctor. "Surely you know wolves live for the hunt."
"You're unbelievable." Rebel sighed.
"I told you I'm moody..." Rose said as she turned her head to the side. Unfortuanlty, The Doctor was right there and he looked upset. She dropped her gaze to the ground. "What are monsters afraid of Doctor?"
"What?" He asked as she played with some thread on her shirt.
"Me."
"And me." Colton said from his spot by the console. He looked at Rose and she nodded.
"Yep us, and we need to keep it that way or our enemies will think we're weak and come after us. I have so many people to try and keep alive. I'd do anything to let them live." She glanced at her team. "They're ready to give their lives if needed. I'm trying to make sure that never needs to happen."
"So you just go around killing as you please?"
"No. I kill them if there truly is no other way. I'm not a fan of killing, but I'll do it if I have to."
"But..." The Doctor started, but was interrupted by Colton speaking up.
"This conversation can be saved for later, but right now we need to deal with the hunters. What are they doing?"
"Well they have been attacking people to draw Rose out, but since it hasn't worked yet..." Dex trailed off knowing the others knew what would happen.
"They'll start killing." Rose said. "We have a plan..." She tilted her head to the side when she heard a noise. "Someone's phone is going off." Everyone looked at theirs until The Doctor ran to the console and picked up a phone. "You have a phone now?"
"Martha gave it to me. Give me a second." He flipped open the phone and gave a cheerful hello. Rose looked at Donna.
"Who is Martha?"
"She's a doctor. Well I guess she's now a soldier too."
"I see." Rose crossed her arms with a frown on her face. The Doctor didn't look very happy. He glanced over at her and pulled the phone away from his ear. He hit a button on it and held it towards the group.
"You're on speaker now."
"Ah good good! Knew you wouldn't let me down Doctor!" Rose froze at the voice. She felt Colton come up beside her quickly.
"Reyos..."
"Hello Commander Tyler. Having a good day?"
"Cut the chat Reyos. What the hell do you want?" Rose spat out.
"Well you of course. You don't know her, but Martha is such a kind woman. It would be a shame to have to kill her."
"Don't. Touch. Her!"
"You have two minutes to show your face before I pull the trigger and plant a bullet in her brain." The call ended and Rose sprinted out of the TARDIS. Colton was right at her heels and the rest of the team bolted after them. Donna looked at The Doctor.
"What do we do?"
"Follow them!" The Doctor shouted as he grabbed Donna's hand and ran out the door. They saw the group running straight ahead and kept following.
"They're fast!" Donna yelled.
"Just keep running!" The Doctor heard gunshots and his hearts froze. He let go of Donna's hand and ran faster than he had ever run.

A true alpha will do whatever it can to protect its pack even if dying is the only way.
