Chapter 2: Returning to the Blitz

The Doctor fiddled with the dials on the console, he was troubled by the fact that this had been the first time he was leaving Powell Estate without Rose. Immediately upset by this thought the Doctor stopped moving his hands and begun to stare at the consol.

Jack walked over and snapped his fingers " we're going to miss the exact moment we need to be there if you keep on like this…" Jack said getting truly worried for his friend.

" I know the pain is still fresh but if this works… then you can tell her how you feel… I mean you practically screamed at those Greek fellows before and even told her, though she couldn't hear you at the time." The con man said walking around in a small circle.

The Doctor sighed and nodded his head as he continued to map out their exact landing coordinates. " Your right, I need to stop thinking about how I lost her and more on how I'm going to get her back." The time lord said as he turned the last dial.

The TARDIS made it's landing in a small alley safe from bombshells and falling debris. The two men waited briefly for the moment when Jack's former ship would be unoccupied and give them a chance to sneak aboard and take the nanogens they would need to hopefully bring Rose back.

Jack looked at his pocket watch and smirked " right at this moment, just above us, Rose and I are sharing champagne and dancing high above the street." Jack said softly oblivious to the glare he was getting from the Doctor.

" How much longer till you two go to find me?" He asked running his hand through his spiky brown hair.

The American gave a small smirk " Very soon, I'm telling her about the wreck and wait for it" Jack said as a loud humming filled the air signaling the tractor beam lowering them to the ground.

" There we go, now give it a few more minutes before we go out there just so we aren't spotted" Jack said as he made his way over to the door of the TARDIS.

Both men snuck down the small alley before they reached the spot below the tractor beam. After the press of a button the two were pulled up into the sky.

Jack looked around and chuckled " It's good to see you old girl… now where did I put those extra nanogens." The American mumbled as he started to look around the ship for the capsule that held the extra nanogens.

The Doctor looked around the ship and sighed softly. " If this doesn't work then I don't know what I'm going to do" the time lord said leaning against the curving inner wall of the ship.

" Ah ha got it…now lets get back before I beam myself back up in here" Jack said going over to the depressed time lord and pressed the down beam and opens his eyes and looks around the war torn streets and sighed " to think London went through all this hell and yet you can't see it in Rose's time" Jack said as he and the Doctor walked back to the TARDIS.

The Doctor nodded his head; his mind was on other things at that very moment.

If this works then Rose will be alive and I can continue traveling with her… wait traveling with me is what caused her death in the first place.

The Doctor thought as he pushed the door open to the TARDS, the familiar hum of the controls tried to console the heartbroken Doctor.

Looking around the control room the Doctor let his mind wander for a moment, memories of the good times he had with Rose flowed through his thoughts.

"It was a stupid thought to think about leaving her behind… I need her to keep me sane" The Doctor said as he walked over to the controls.

Jack looked at the Doctor before shrugging his shoulders at the odd conversation the Doctor was having with himself.

Soon the TARDIS was traveling forward in time to present day and Powell Estates.

Brad sat in the extra bedroom that he used as a study in his flat and watched the same spot where the TARDIS was earlier and began to smirk when he saw it materialize in the same spot as before.

" Perfect…and with that small bug I planted in Jackie's flat I can get all the information on that so called Doctor." Brad said as he picked up his grandfather's journal.

Day 47

There was another air raid last night, Ulrika and I hid in the bomb shelter in the backyard again like scared animals. Though I keep that thought to myself… Ulrika has a right to be afraid, after being born and raised in Berlin she worries that our friends and neighbors will learn the truth about her, that she is German.

After the air siren filled the air Ulrika and I went back inside our home, I went out to the garden to take in some fresh air. Then I heard it this loud sound…I knew it was not a German plane, it was coming from the next street. When I ran over I saw it, a blue box just sitting there till a young woman walked out with a man that looked at least twice her age. Her clothes were very strange…I can only guess what they were doing in that box.

Putting the journal back on the shelf Brad rose to his feet and walked into the small kitchen and grabbed the teapot off the stove. " Great Grandfather… I wish you were here to see this, to think that the same blue box he saw sixty-six years ago is here… Though that Doctor hasn't seemed to age in those sixty-six years." Brad mumbled softly as he filled the teapot and placed it on the stove for later that night.
