A/N: Hello again. This chapter is kinda short but never mind. Hope ya like. Unless I manage to write seriously fast, this might be the last chapter for a while, I'm going on holiday soon, but I will endevour to update as fast as possible. Thanks to Briar for being my beta and those really cool people who review.

Disclaimer: Oh I wish.


The Doctor woke up first, he knew it wasn't light yet, but that didn't bother him. Time Lords didn't need much sleep. Carefully, he extracted himself from Rose and got up from the sofa. Rose shifted and the Doctor's leather jacket fell to the floor. Rolling his eyes he moved round to pick it up, dusting it off, he carefully laid it back over the sleeping girl's shoulders. Realising what he was doing, he shook himself; he was dangerously close to domestic. That would not do at all. A Time Lord becoming domestic? Whoever heard of such a thing?

Shaking himself again, he quietly walked from the room.

When he reached her room, he was surprised to find Bria already up, dressed and about to walk out the door. "Where are you going?"

"Good morning to you too. You can come with me if you want."

"Where?"

"Come and find out for yourself."

"You're not going to tell me are you?"

"Nope." She smiled and he couldn't help but return it before following her out of the room.

Bria led the Doctor up a flight of stairs to a door. When she opened it, the Doctor saw that it led out onto the roof. Bria walked across the flat top of the warehouse and moved to the edge of the building, the Doctor following close behind. When she reached the ledge, she sat down, her legs dangling over the edge. Still unsure what her purpose in coming here was, the Doctor sat beside her.

"You wondering why we're up here?"

"Yep."

"There." Bria pointed straight ahead of them. The Doctor looked to where she pointed and saw her reason. The sun was rising over the city of London, lighting the sky with shafts of gold that bounced between the clouds, turning them into a multitude of colours. The Doctor was struck with awe. In all his years, he had never truly stopped to look at a sunrise on this planet.

"It's beautiful."

"One of the few things that still are. The humans haven't worked out how to ruin it yet."

"So why did you come up here to see it?"

"I come and watch the sunrise most days. Elysium used to love watching it; I guess it's a way of remembering her."

"I suppose I'm still a bit shocked about that."

"Understandable, finding out that you had a daughter who was killed in a raid should shock even you. I would worry if it didn't."

"Could you…well could you tell me about her?" The Doctor suddenly felt awkward.

"What do you want to know?"

"Anything."

Bria took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts before answering. "She was perfectly suited to her name. It meant 'beautiful sweetness'. She was intelligent; knowledge just seemed to be absorbed into her. I think she took after you in that respect."

"Sounds like she got the best of both."

"You're right. Elysium would have been powerful had she been allowed to grow up."

"Definitely. Child of a Vrexian and a Time Lord."

Bria gave a small smile. "My warrior child of time." The smile disappeared. "It couldn't save her though, and nor could I."

"It wasn't your fault. You didn't know what they were going to do."

"Still, I should have tried to save her. I should have gone into the building."

"What? And burned to death yourself? Elysium was already dead when she fell into the building. The soldier broke her neck. There was nothing you could have done." He looked over at Bria, her eyes were lowered. "I'm sorry, that was harsh."

"It was, but it was also right. I just…well I just can't help feeling like I should have been able to help her."

"Maternal guilt, a big downside of having kids."

"What about paternal?"

"Yup that as well."

Bria looked towards the rising sun. "You would have been proud of her, Doctor. I think her mind would have impressed even you."

"I bet she would. Mind of a Time Lord? Best gift there is." He grinned at her and Bria couldn't help but smile.

"The others are probably going to wake up soon, we should go back inside." She rose gracefully and stretched before reaching down to help the Doctor to his feet. A breeze began to blow over the rooftop, whipping strands of hair across Bria's face.

"Research day today, we can find out all we need to know from the TARDIS library."

"Jack and Rose don't mind trawling through books then?"

"Well Rose will complain but at least her mind will be on the task."

"And Jack?"

"Jack's mind is always on somethin' else."

"I'm not sure I want to know." A knowing smile on her face suggested she knew anyway.

As he followed her into the building, the Doctor realized that Bria had, just now, looked almost exactly like the picture of Elysium.

A/N: There we go. Reviewing makes you a seriously cool person.
